Suddenly, a dark figure appeared in the hall, emanating wisps of extremely yin energy that instantly lowered the temperature to its lowest point.
Hai Bodong and Teng Shan both shivered involuntarily. Teng Shan was greatly alarmed to see this person enter the Mittel Hall so silently. He was about to say something when Hai Bodong immediately interrupted him.
Hai Bodong stepped forward and bowed, saying,
"My lord."
Mittel Tengshan, seeing Hai Bodong's unusual posture, was startled. He immediately recalled Hai Bodong's earlier words and connected the two, quickly stepping forward to bow with Hai Bodong, saying,
"Greetings, my lord!"
Hun Changqing glanced at Mittel Tengshan but said nothing, instead saying to Hai Bodong,
"Hmm, let's go. Come with me to the auction house. I'm quite interested in your auction."
Hai Bodong didn't immediately agree, hesitating for a moment before asking,
"My lord, what is your relationship with Mittel Yafei...?"
Hun Changqing looked at Hai Bodong and asked,
"Hmm... what's wrong?"
"Nothing much. Yafei will be hosting the auction today. If you're interested, I'll take you there now,"
Hai Bodong hurriedly said, inwardly cursing.
"What's wrong? What do you mean, what's wrong? You seduced a direct descendant of the Mittel family, and a few days ago you almost killed her ancestor! You even threatened to kill her ancestor along with you! Otherwise, you'd wipe out her entire family! And now you're asking me what's wrong?"
Damn it!
Hai Bodong roared inwardly, but his face remained expressionless.
"By the way, you're all probably the heads of the Mittel family, right? You all look quite old, probably close to retirement, right? How about I recommend someone to take over your positions?"
Hun Changqing suddenly seemed to have thought of something and said to everyone present.
"Ya... Ya Fei?"
Hai Bodong asked weakly.
"Yes, she's quite capable. You can check her resume. I believe she can definitely manage the family well for you. What do you think?"
"Yes, everything as you say, sir."
Hai Bodong quickly agreed, but inwardly he cursed again.
"What do I think? What good is my opinion? Isn't it all just your opinion? 'Very good ability'? What kind of ability are you talking about? Damn it!"
Despite the insults, Hai Bodong didn't feel any real resistance. Being able to connect the Mittel family with Hun Changqing through Ya Fei would definitely be beneficial to the Mittel family.
Of course, the premise was that Hai Bodong could survive the subsequent canyon journey; only then would these benefits be meaningful to him.
"Don't reveal my strength to Ya Fei. Just say I met you in the desert. Alright, let's go."
"Yes, sir."
Hai Bodong forced a smile, like an old chrysanthemum, and led Hun Changqing towards the Mittel Auction House.
Soon, the two arrived at the auction house's hall. Because Hun Changqing had made a big splash here yesterday, almost instantly, everyone's eyes were focused on him again, countless gazes filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment shooting fiercely at him.
Feeling the sharp and venomous gazes of everyone present, Hun Changqing sighed helplessly in his heart,
"Beauty is a curse~"
Then a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and an evil and sinister aura emanated from his body, instantly enveloping everyone present with terrifyingly cold and yin energy. In an instant, the entire auction hall fell silent. Everyone present was terrified, as still as a cicada in winter. No one dared to utter a sound, and no gaze dared to fall upon Hun Changqing again.
"Hmph,"
Hun Changqing snorted coldly and followed Hai Bodong, who was wiping away cold sweat with trembling hands, towards the VIP room on the third floor.
"How terrifying! I even thought I was dead just now."
"Definitely a terrifyingly powerful expert!"
"I am a Dou Wang, and just now I even felt a deadly threat! That person is definitely a Dou Huang or higher expert!"
"That Ya Fei is really lucky, to have hooked up with a Dou Huang expert. But only a Dou Huang expert is worthy of such a beauty!"
After seeing Hun Changqing go up to the third floor, the previously silent crowd dared to begin whispering among themselves.
Inside the magnificent VIP room, Hun Changqing sat on an extremely luxurious and exquisite sofa chair. Through the glass mirror in front of him, the entire auction hall was laid out before him.
It must be said that the design of the Mittel Auction House perfectly suited the tastes of those important figures. From these private rooms, the entire auction venue was laid out before them, giving those inside a sense of superiority and looking down upon everyone else.
And this was precisely the feeling those important figures sought, making them tirelessly willing to pay for Mittel Auction House's services.
Suddenly, a commotion arose again in the private passageway below, and the crowd began to stir restlessly. Hun Changqing, thinking it was Ya Fei, looked towards the passageway.
However, the person inside was not Ya Fei, but two young women. One of them wore a purple robe embroidered with silver patterns. Her exquisitely beautiful face, nurtured by her royal family, subtly revealed an innate noble air.
A purple sash cinched her slender waist, perfectly accentuating her figure. A slight smile played on her pretty face, giving her an elegant and serene appearance, yet her eyes revealed a mischievous glint.
The other woman, also dressed in a magnificent green brocade robe, was tall and slender, bearing a striking resemblance to the woman beside her. She exuded a cold and mature allure, a coldness that concealed a regal bearing cultivated by royalty. Her beauty was striking, her eyes naturally seductive.
Upon seeing these two incredibly beautiful women, a glint of cunning flashed in Hun Changqing's eyes, and a wicked smile crept across his lips.
"Hai Bodong, who are these two?"
Hun Changqing stared intently at the two pretty women below, his gaze playful, and asked Hai Bodong without turning his head.
Hai Bodong followed Hun Changqing's gaze and saw the two women, one tall and one short, with a resemblance in their features. He instantly recognized them and said,
"My lord, these two are the granddaughters of Jia Xingtian, the current emperor of the Jia Ma royal family, Yao Ye and Yao Yue. Jia Xingtian's cultivation is at the peak of the Dou Huang realm, his strength unfathomable."
Hun Changqing, upon hearing this, also understood.
"Princess? They are indeed very beautiful, not bad, not bad."
Hun Changqing only vaguely remembered these two characters from the original story, but couldn't recall the specifics, as they were just minor characters with little plot.
Hearing Hun Changqing's words, Hai Bodong seemed to be considering pursuing these two princesses, and quickly advised,
"My lord, Jia Xingtian dotes on these two princesses immensely, spoiling them rotten. If you were to..."
Hun Changqing waved his hand, interrupting Hai Bodong, and said,
"Does the Jia Ma royal family have any intractable trouble? Something that has been troubling them for a long time?"
Hun Changqing remembered that Xiao Yan had helped the Jia Ma royal family in the original story, gaining their friendship, but he couldn't recall the specifics of the favor. He thought that to have a deeper conversation with these two princesses, he might need to rely on this trouble with the Jia Ma royal family.
