Chapter 334: Chapter 334: Could Not Enter The Hall

"Hello, everyone." Si Ji Huang greeted everyone in the room.

"Hello." Bai Xiang greeted Si Ji Huang back.

"Let me be direct with you. I just want to ask what your relationship with Sir Long is." Si Ji Huang asked.

"May I know why you are asking us about that?" Bai Xiang asked back.

"The invitation cards that belong to you are those that I gave to Sir Long." Si Ji Huang stated.

"Sir Long is my teacher." Bai Xifeng stepped forward telling Si Ji Huang the status of their relationship with Long Feng.

"You are his student?" Si Ji Huang was surprised.

"Yes. Is there any problem with that?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"No... No... I see. You are his student." Si Ji Huang nodded several times.

"Yes. He is the one who helped me to be able to cultivate." Bai Xifeng stated a lie.

"You mean?" Si Ji Huang once again was surprised.

"Yes. You should know that he is an excellent alchemist and pharmacist. He treated me and was fond of me. So, he took me as his student." Bai Xifeng said.

She was layering the foundation. She wanted to debut as an alchemist and pharmacist later. She could use her Long Feng’s identity if someone asked her who her teacher was.

"Where is your teacher? Why is he not here?" Si Ji Huang asked.

"Oh... He has something important to do. He will not be attending this auction. However, he asks me to pass you a message." Bai Xifeng said.

"What is it?" Si Ji Huang waited for Bai Xifeng to talk.

"He said, I am going to come over tomorrow to discuss something." Bai Xifeng said.

"I see. I will be waiting for him tomorrow." Si Ji Huang smiled. "You can enjoy the auction."

"Thank you, Sir Si." Bai Xifeng smiled.

Si Ji Huang excused himself.

"A disciple to yourself?" Bai Tingfeng was holding back his laughter just now.

"It is better to explain like that. They will not be suspicious for the time being." Bai Xifeng said.

"Yes. You are still weak. Better hide your ability first. Otherwise, people will come over and take advantage of you." Bai Xiang patted Bai Xifeng’s head agreeing with her move.

Outside the Shanghai Pavilion, there were still a lot of people lining up to enter the auction hall. In the line, there were Bai Guowei, Han Yunru and Bai Shaoqing. The three of them also wanted to attend the auction.

They arrived quite late. So, they did not watch the earlier incident. However, people around were still talking. They heard about that.

"General Bai is attending the auction too?"

"Yes. His son and daughter are here as well."

"Well, he can afford that."

"Their invitation cards are not normal ones."

"What? What do you mean by that?

"Just now, someone called the Shanghai Pavilion’s guards and confronted General Bai telling others that General Bai did not have any invitation card. He also made some noise saying that General Bai wanted to join the auction by barging into the auction by force."

"What? Really? Is that true that General Bai wants to barge in?"

"Of course not! General Bai took out his invitation cards. Then, the man accused that the invitation cards that General Bai had were fakes."

"How did he know that?"

"What is your invitation card’s colour?"

"Red. Wait, don’t tell me that General Bai has a different colour?"

"You guessed right. It was a gold colour. The guards saw the colour. Their attitude changed to more respectful. They even led General Bai and his children indirectly. No need to line up."

"Wow, that’s amazing. The colour means different treatment then."

"I guess so."

Bai Guowei and Han Yunru who listened to the conversation felt irritated. To get the invitation card, Bai Guowei spent a lot. And it was a normal red invitation card. He wondered how much Bai Xiang spent to get the gold invitation card.

Han Yunru also thought the same. She still thought Bai Xiang should give some money to support the family. Their lifestyle changed a lot. They would not spend the money recklessly anymore.

They did not know if they could buy anything in the auction. Bai Guowei hoped that he could buy the pills.

It was finally their turn to enter. Bai Guowei took out their invitation cards and handed them over to the guards for checking. The guards nodded and returned the card back to Bai Guowei.

The guards allowed Bai Guowei to enter. Bai Guowei stepped forward followed by his wife and his son. However, he heard his son shouting.

"Let me go!" Bai Shaoqing shouted.

Bai Guowei and Han Yunru turned around and saw their son had been held by the guards. Han Yunru rushed over and slapped away the guard’s hands that held his son.

"What are you doing to my son?" Han Yunru questioned the guards while glaring at them guards.

It was her precious son. No one could hurt him.

"Sir Bai, you only give me two invitation cards. So, only two can enter the auction." The guards explained to Bai Guowei.

Bai Guowei’s face turned red.

"What? He need an invitation card too? He is just a kid." Han Yunru said.

"Erkk... Sir, can you let this pass for now?" Bai Guowei asked.

"If I make the exception for you, then, I will have to make an exception again." The guard said.
