If Xie Jiuhan exposed his identity on the Divine’s Light, it was very likely that he would be hated and attacked by everyone. Even if they did not clash with him head-on, the people from the Seven Stars Continent would still torture Xie Jiuhan.
However, Xie Jiuhan did not reply to Xing Yue. Although he did not want to expose his identity on the Divine’s Light, if Feng Qing was really on it, he would definitely bring Feng Qing down at all costs. If Feng Qing was not on it, he would try his best to hide his identity and secretly steal the information in the Chu clan’s underground laboratory.
Xie Jiuhan hung up the phone with Xing Yue and crossed the cordon to get into a Rolls-Royce. At this moment, Liu Yan rushed up. He looked at Xie Jiuhan and said, “Ninth, Ninth Master…”
When he faced this man at a close distance, Liu Yan subconsciously felt a little afraid. The current Xie Jiuhan was ten times more terrifying than the feeling he had when he was wearing the mask. Xie Jiuhan raised his chin and glanced at him coldly. Just this glance made Liu Yan feel cold.
Liu Yan was so scared that his mind went blank. He braced himself and said, “Ninth-Ninth Master, please excuse me. What-what’s your relationship with Feng Qing?”
Xie Jiuhan did not answer. Liu Yan waited for a long time and thought that he had spoken too shakily, so Xie Jiuhan did not hear him clearly. When he was about to speak again, he heard Xie Jiuhan’s cold voice. “We are legally married.”
Then, Xie Jiuhan got into the car. The custom-made Rolls-Royce turned around and drove into the distance at an extremely fast speed. Soon, it disappeared from everyone’s vision. Liu Yan stood on the spot, dumbfounded. His eyes were filled with shock and confusion. After seeing the Rolls-Royce disappear completely, his legs actually went weak and he sat on the mud. Only then did he regain his senses. He knew that he had just learned a shocking piece of news. Liu Yan didn’t dare to imagine what kind of commotion it would cause if this news were to spread to the school. Would Capital University explode on the spot?
…
On the ninth floor of the Divine’s Light.
In the circular hall, the first Black Prison Auction in three months was being held. It had attracted almost all the guests on the cruise ship. Just as Xing Yue had said, there were only two kinds of people who could stand here. One was the real socialite of the Seven Stars Continent, and the other was an outlaw who licked blood on the knife. Because of these people’s existence, the air here was filled with the smell of blood and money.
At this moment, the guests were sitting in their seats and discussing the various items that were about to be displayed in this auction. Without a doubt, the things that could be auctioned here were all the top things in the world. These people were gathered here to auction these things. After all, these things were all treasures in the world. These were things that could only be chanced upon by luck and not sought after. They could often encounter things that had been lost for hundreds or thousands of years. There was no lack of antiques, calligraphy, and paintings. There were even some confidential documents and information that involved the higher-ups of certain countries. There were all sorts of strange things.
After everyone took their seats, the security personnel on the ship closed the door of the auction hall. Then, all the lights in the auction hall were extinguished. Only the lights on the auction stage were retained. The guests looked at the stage in unison. At this moment, a beautiful host in a red gown walked up. The host first bowed to express her respect to everyone, then gave an impassioned opening speech before officially entering the auction today.
The host: “Next, let us welcome the first item of today, the golden bronze cauldron of Xia country’s Shang Dynasty!”
Following the host’s words, a booth slowly rose from the center of the auction stage. On the booth was a bronze cauldron the size of a computer box. This cauldron was square, with a large upper mouth and a slightly narrow lower body. The patterns on the surface exuded an ancient aura. Moreover, many patterns were suffused with a faint golden glow under the light. Clearly, it was plated with a layer of gold.
“Hiss…” The guests gasped when they saw this cauldron. They admired the owner of the Divine’s Light even more. He could actually obtain such a thing. Those who knew a little knew that if this thing was placed in the outside world, it would definitely be a rare treasure. Even if it was really exposed to the market, it would be forcefully detained and returned to the Xia country’s Cultural Relics Bureau in the name of the country. Those who bought and sold such things would usually be sentenced to death. It could be seen how much importance Xia country put in towards those who sell and buy cultural relics and antiques.
