Chapter 415: Chapter 415: No Regrets

The next evening.

In front of a majestic, enormous building, Ling Chen and Ling Wu walked over.

This was the Zhou Tian Trading Company.

Today’s auction would also be held here.

"Stop right there!"

As soon as the two approached the entrance of the Zhou Tian Trading Company, four guards at the door gave them a piercing look.

All four of these guards were Cultivators in the early stages of the seventh level of the Primordial Pill Realm!

High-ranking Cultivators of the Primordial Pill Realm could only stand guard here.

Zhou Tian Trading Company really was rolling in wealth!

"Today, Zhou Tian Trading Company is holding an auction; no idle people are allowed inside!"

One of them barked coldly.

With a slight smile, Ling Chen responded, "We are here to participate in the auction!"

Upon hearing this, the speaker’s expression became solemn, and with a respectful look on his face, he said, "Please show your invitation."

"Alright!"

Ling Chen nodded, took out the invitation, and handed it over.

The guard looked at the invitation, and when his gaze fell on a purple circular seal at the bottom right corner, his body shook. He immediately handed the invitation back with great reverence.

"Young Master, Young Lady, please come in!"

The man said with utmost respect.

Because that purple circular seal represented the highest tier of guests eligible to be invited by Zhou Tian Trading Company.

Only the Royal Family and the Eight Great Families received such invitations.

Apart from them, no one else from any power could get one.

However, it was clear that these two were neither from the Royal Family nor the Eight Great Families.

Still, having received such an invitation indicated that these two people’s identities were absolutely extraordinary.

"Mhm."

Ling Chen nodded lightly.

He and Ling Wu then entered the Zhou Tian Trading Company.

"Please follow me!"

A beautiful woman came up with a smile and led the way.

She had already received a message from the guard who had spoken before, knowing that these two were the most esteemed guests of their trading company.

Naturally, she dared not slight them in any way.

Soon, the three of them entered the auction hall.

Ling Chen and Ling Wu were early, and there were not many people in the auction hall at the moment.

"Your seats are in box number one."

The beautiful woman said with a respectful smile.

Ling Chen glanced at Ling Wu, whose face was full of excitement, and then said with a grin, "No need, we’ll just sit in the main hall outside."

The beautiful woman was startled for a moment but then smiled, "Alright."

Soon after, she chose an excellent vantage point for the two of them.

"Young Master, if you need anything, please feel free to command."

The beautiful woman said with a smile.

"Okay!"

Ling Chen nodded.

It was then that the beautiful woman left.

"So many people!"

Ling Wu excitedly surveyed her surroundings.

Ling Chen was also a bit excited.

He had never attended an auction before!

Before long, cultivators began to arrive one after another.

"Could you two please change seats? We are people from the same family and would like to sit together?"

A middle-aged man said to Ling Chen with a smile.

This man was named Gu Xuanwu.

He was the Family Head of a power in King City.

His strength was second only to the Eight Great Families.

His Gu Family was known as a minor family.

The place where Ling Chen and Ling Wu were seated was right in the center of the auction hall, one of the best spots.

"Sorry, we’re not switching."

Ling Chen shook his head.

Gu Xuanwu smiled and said, "Young Master, we are from the Gu Family."

"What Gu Family, never heard of it."

Ling Chen replied.

Hearing this, Gu Xuanwu’s face turned cold, and he said in a chilly voice, "Kid, don’t be too arrogant, or I might not let you walk out of King City."

"Heh heh."

Ling Chen curled the corner of his mouth and said, "Fine, I really want to see how you’re going to stop us from leaving King City."

At this moment, a manager from the Zhou Tian Trading Company walked over.

"What’s going on?"

The manager asked, frowning.

"Manager Wang!"

Gu Xuanwu said with a smile, "We would like these two to change their seats."

This Manager Wang usually had a good relationship with their Gu Family.

Manager Wang glanced at Ling Chen and his companion.

These two didn’t have familiar faces and didn’t seem to belong to the Eight Great Families or the Royal Family.

He smiled at Ling Chen and said, "Young master, this seat is reserved for the Gu Family Master. Please make room."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xuanwu looked at Ling Chen triumphantly.

The Zhou Tian Trading’s manager has spoken; he wanted to see if Ling Chen and his companion would still be as defiant as before.

"Is that so?"

Ling Chen glanced at Manager Wang and said indifferently, "It was your people who arranged for us to sit here. I don’t care if it’s reserved or not; go and discuss it with your people."

Upon hearing this, Manager Wang was taken aback, but then smiled, "Young master, I hope you will follow our arrangement; otherwise, we will have to ask you to leave."

A mere cultivator at the fourth level of the Primordial Pill Realm dares to be arrogant in front of him?

At this point, the situation attracted the attention of many people who began to look over.

"Who are these two?"

"Really ignorant. They even dare to offend the Gu Family?"

"Heh heh, these two will probably be asked to leave, and I guess from now on, they won’t even be able to enter the doors of the Zhou Tian Trading Company."

...

The crowd murmured among themselves.

In their view, Ling Chen and his companion were simply courting death!

Offend the Gu Family, and still expect to get along in King City?

Ling Chen glanced at Manager Wang and said flatly, "Manager, believe it or not, if we leave now, you might be kneeling and begging us to stay later?"

"Heh heh!"

Manager Wang scoffed, "Either give up your seats or leave, which will it be?"

What were these two, thinking they had the right to make him kneel and beg? What a joke.

Gu Xuanwu’s face also showed a look of disdain.

Did these two really consider themselves some big shots?

What kind of backing could some obscure and unheard-of nobodies even have?

"Haha! Perhaps this kid has lost his mind?"

The surrounding cultivators also scoffed.

What kind of person was a manager of the Zhou Tian Trading Company?

A mere fourth-level Primordial Pill Realm kid daring to spout such madness?

Ling Chen nodded, "Alright then, I hope you will not regret it later."

He then stood up, took Ling Wu with him, and walked towards the exit of the auction house.

As he passed Manager Wang, his right hand flashed with light, a glowing invitation appeared, and then with a flick of his wrist, he flung it directly onto Manager Wang’s face.

"You’re seeking death, kid!"

Manager Wang was furious.

He grabbed the invitation, crumpled it, and stared at Ling Chen with a vicious look.

Although his managerial position in the Zhou Tian Trading Company wasn’t very high,

in this auction house, he held a very high authority.

He had the power to expel others.

In the auction house, aside from the members of the Royal Family and the Eight Great Families, even the heads of smaller families like Gu Xuanwu spoke to him politely.

A mere fourth-level Primordial Pill Realm cultivator dared to throw something at his face?

Was this not courting death?

"Truly seeking their own death!"

Gu Xuanwu shook his head lightly.

Having attacked the manager, if the Zhou Tian Trading Company let them off, where would their face be?

"Sigh!"

The crowd also shook their heads one after another.

In their eyes, Ling Chen and his companion were already half-dead.

Yet Ling Chen remained complacent and continued forward.

"Stop right there!"

Manager Wang bellowed, his aura of the seventh level of the Primordial Pill Realm bursting forth instantly.

"Is there a problem?"

Ling Chen paused in his step, speaking as calmly as the wind passing through light clouds.

"Daring to show disrespect to me, do you think you can walk out of my Zhou Tian Trading Company?"

Manager Wang said coldly.
