After saying that, Lin Xiao turned around and walked out of the store. Wenren Yu and Lin Yun were helpless, but they followed Lin Xiao obediently. After all, they also had no intention to stay in that sickening place any longer.
So what if they were country bumpkin?
Their starting point didn't mean anything. Even if they started off only as an ordinary villager, it didn't mean that they would become one forever. Their path and their decision would shape their own future.
"Well, we can try going to the other auction house?" Wenren Yu asked in hesitation. He was not sure about what they should do anymore.
Lin Xiao looked at his clothing. While it was not an expensive robe, at the very least, it was not tattered. It was not like he looked like a beggar on the street who couldn't even clothe themselves properly.
Did he look bad?
What he didn't know was that the material for one's clothing could be seen quite clearly. His clothing along with Wenren Yu and Lin Yun were made of coarse materials, which showed that it was cheap. Many other cultivators would wear clothes made of fine silk which would be expensive for many other people.
"Should we change our clothing first?" Lin Yun also asked since he couldn't understand what made his clothing looked bad.
Wenren Yu smiled bitterly. "Even if you change your clothing, the shopkeeper and other staffs would be able to recognize you easily."
"Will they even still remember us?"
"You want to enter this auction house again?"
Lin Xiao looked at the back where the staff was still busy praising the one who was buying the items there and had luxurious clothes. Somehow, he felt that it was just simply how people usually acted in this world. They would judge someone based on what they saw on the other person and what the other person have.
It was just how the world usually was.
"No need. Let's just check the other one."
"Ok."
Raising his head, Lin Xiao read the name "Yue Yi Auction House." Just like the other one, it had a smaller store right beside the auction house for them to sell items that were not as rare as those that usually appear in the auction.
Different with the other store, the store here was slightly bigger but there were lesser items placed on the stalls. There were also only a few staffs standing to wait and no customers were here.
"Hello," Wenren Yu greeted when he entered the auction house.
The staff nearby nodded and looked at their clothing. It was clear that he was also judging them based on their clothing and appearance. The three of them didn't look rich and these people here had already met their fair share of people with similar appearance to them.
Most of them would only look around the store and not bother to buy anything. Of course, those people would usually also stay careful because they would not be able to afford anything.
Still, the staff put on a professional smile. "Welcome, what can I help you with?"
Lin Yun looked at his brother and noticed that Lin Xiao was watching the people there carefully. Unlike the staff from the other store that immediately kicked them away and treated them as nuisance, the staffs here were still relatively polite. Even though the dislike could be seen faintly, it was not shown outside.
In overall, it was much better than the previous store.
"Excuse me, we would like to sell something to the store," Wenren Yu replied politely.
The other staff arched his eyebrows. "Please come to the counter and show the items you would like to sell."
Wenren Yu made way to Lin Xiao as Lin Xiao walked to the front. The staff near the counter, who was only watching from the start to beginning was watching the three of them. Their movements might be faint, but he could see that the other two were treating Lin Xiao as their leader.
But while their movements were still unskilled, it still looked as if they were trying to protect Lin Xiao.
'Normal villagers would not have this kind of coordination.'
That was all the staff think as he tapped the counter. "Do you bring the items with you?"
The other party's tone was flat and indifferent. Lin Xiao raised his hand and put it on the table. Almost instantly, a pot of flower appeared on the table.
The staff's eyes narrowed. 'Spatial Ring.'
The three of them carried a bag with them, but they actually have Spatial Ring. From the way it looked like, they were purposely lying low by also carrying items while in truth they have Spatial Ring.
Little did the staff know that the reason they bought bag was because all of the meat couldn't fit into the Spatial Ring. As someone who had always been very thrifty regarding food, they wouldn't want to waste it, so they packed the food and brought a simple bag with them.
The bag perfected their appearance as country bumpkins.
The staff then looked at the flower as his eyes widened. The one in front of him was clearly not an ordinary flower. He could already feel the temperature dropping even though the flower was placed in front of him.
There were only several types of flower that had this type of effect.
"Please wait a minute, this kind of purchase can only be done with the manager."
"Alright."
While the staff was looking at him, Lin Xiao was also watching the staff in front of him. The most eye catching one was the token that the staff wore in his hand. It had different color, which meant that the staff should be at least Foundation Establishment.
His token was brown in color but the staff in front of him had red color.
And the reason Lin Xiao didn't think of him as Golden Core Stage was because he didn't think that he would be able to meet someone at Golden Core Stage so easily inside this kind of store.
The staff nodded and then rushed back inside.
