On the crowded street, Nine Nether looked back and then said to Mu Chen abruptly, "That girl seems to be unusual . "

"Huh?"

Mu Chen was puzzled .

"She should be slightly younger than you, but probably no weaker . " Nine Nether squinted her lovely eyes partially and said softly, "Also, since she has accomplished so much at this age, she has definitely been receiving perfect guidance . This means that her family background should be extraordinary . "

Surprise flashed in Mu Chen's eyes . He did not actually notice that the girl in white clothes had hidden herself so deeply . He also did not ponder it much . He was in the Great Thousand World where many powerful people remained in concealment . Without any family background, such a girl who was lacking in social experience would not dare to go outside and act freely anyway .

"I didn't think that much," Mu Chen said and smiled . Indeed, when he went forward to help previously, he did not think; he just did not want to see such a delicate and pretty girl get into unnecessary trouble .

After all, he had already heard some time ago that there were many hidden talents in the Continent of Trade . Even if that girl in white did have some background, she would not be able to get past that kind of conflict easily .

Nine Nether smiled faintly and did not say anything else .

The two walked past a few streets and then turned a corner . Immediately, the view before them broadened up . In front of them, a hall as large as a mountain stood in silence . A tremendous amount of spiritual energy emanated from it and actually formed a column of light that soared up into the clouds .

Outside the hall, a large number of people flooded in . Looking at the size of the crowd, even Mu Chen was somewhat dumbstruck in spite of himself .

"The Trading and Auction House . . . " Nine Nether raised her head and gazed at the huge golden words on the exterior of the hall . Smiling, she said, "This should be the place . "

"What an enormous scale," Mu Chen exclaimed . The hall was like a prehistoric behemoth which had opened its mouth wide and engulfed the vast number of people inside . Even so, it did not seem to be packed at all .

"This hall . . . "

Staring at the hall, Mu Chen's eyes suddenly flashed and his surprise became more intense . He realized that the hall seemed to be emitting a strange fluctuation .

Amazement also flashed in Nine Nether's eyes as she said, "This is a Divine Artifact . Such an incredible effort . They actually used a Divine Artifact as an auction hall . . . "

The hall was actually not a building but was converted from a Divine Artifact . It was no wonder it had that special fluctuation .

"Terrific!" Mu Chen couldn't help giving his compliment .

"Let's go . "

Waving her hand, Nine Nether brought Mu Chen into the magnificent hall . Entering the hall, they could clearly feel that the space around them rippled . The scene before them blurred slightly and then became clear .

The hall was unusually lit, and its floor was formed from dazzling crystals . Inside, people filled the place . However, even though so many people gathered there, it did not seem to be crowded at all . Instead, it felt very spacious .

Mu Chen walked into the hall and looked around . He exclaimed like a rural villager entering a large city . The place was many times larger than the Spiritual Values Hall in the Northern Heaven Spiritual Academy and also looked more spectacular .

On the other hand, Nine Nether did not stop for long . She gave ten drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid to the lady at the counter and then took two tickets for the auction . Pulling Mu Chen along, they crossed the hall and entered a light door .

Through the light door was a place that looked like an arena . Its scale was so huge, it could accommodate over 100,000 people . At the moment, the place was already filled with people . Its popularity was incredible .

Mu Chen pursed his lips but did not exclaim again because he was already somewhat numb .

Nine Nether searched for seats while Mu Chen turned his head slightly and looked to his right . There was another light door not far away through which a few people were slowly walking .

When those few people entered, Mu Chen could clearly feel that many people were looking at them, and the looks were somewhat intense .

Mu Chen also looked at them . There was a lady in a fox fur coat whose body was exceptionally hot and enchanting . She had fiery red hair, and a charming smile on her white, oval face that caused many to feel attracted .

Her slim waist turned like a snake as she slowly walked over . Many eyes followed her delicate steps .

Behind the lady, there was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man . He was always just one step away from the lady . As he lifted his head occasionally, a frightening look could be briefly seen .

Mu Chen stared at the middle-aged man and his heart trembled slightly because he felt some pressure from him . This ordinary-looking middle-aged man was quite strong, and was probably at least a Grade Four Sovereign .

"They are from the Fox Fairy Clan . This clan is one of the top on the Continent of Trade and is extremely strong . They participate in most of the auctions on the continent," Nine Nether said in an emotionless voice .

"This lady should have quite a high status in the Fox Fairy Clan . If not, she would not have a Grade Four Sovereign as a bodyguard . "

"Fox Fairy Clan . . . "

Mu Chem remembered this name in his heart . This was the first strong clan he learned of after coming to the Great Thousand World .

As Mu Chen and Nine Nether were looking at them, the middle-aged man beside the enchanting lady in the fox fur coat seemed to have noticed . He lifted his head and looked at where Mu Chen and Nine Nether were . His eyes stopped at Nine Nether and his steps paused briefly .

Although his action was subtle, the enchanting lady still noticed . She also looked in that direction as if she felt something, and her attractive eyes locked onto Mu Chen and Nine Nether .

Looking at those charming eyes, Mu Chen's heart rate suddenly increased . Even his blood started to flow faster . However, he quickly realized that something was wrong, and his look turned solemn . In his body, it was as if thunder was heard, which completely suppressed the weird feeling .

"Huh?" the lady in the fox fur coat said faintly in surprise . However, she did not do anything else and only smiled gently at Mu Chen and Nine Nether . Then, under the scorching stares of countless people, she walked to the frontmost part of the auction hall, eventually entering a small attic covered with thin muslin . Obviously, ordinary people would not be allowed to go into that kind of place .

After entering the attic, the lady in the fox fur coat finally smiled and said, "Uncle Liu, those two look unfamiliar . They are probably not from the Continent of Trade . "

The ordinary-looking middle-aged man said, "That girl is very strong, probably no weaker than me . As for that young man, he should have entered the Sovereign-level as well . It is not easy to have such an accomplishment at that age . "

When the lady in the fox fur coat heard the middle-aged man say that Nine Nether was no weaker than he was, she was also briefly surprised . However, her expression returned to normal in a second, and she just nodded slightly, not saying anything else .

Seeing that Mu Chen kept looking at the lady in the fox fur coat as she left, Nine Nether gave out a humph and said, "Stop looking . Based on your ability now, she would probably feel disdain towards you . "

Mu Chen was resigned but did not bother to explain . Just as he was about to find a seat and sit down, a familiar clear and angry voice came from the distance . "Scram, I am not interested in men!"

Mu Chen turned around, stunned . At another entrance to the auction hall, he saw the girl in white clothes who was dressed like a man . Her face was turning icy .

In front of her was a young man who was also in white robes . His appearance was somewhat tender, and he was quite handsome . At the moment, his expression was slightly awkward because of the girl's angry words .

He had already seen the girl outside . Although she was dressed like a man, he was a womanizer after all, and could naturally tell the truth with just one look . Furthermore, the girl's exquisite face was emitting an attractive aura . When she grew up, she would definitely be exceptionally beautiful . Therefore, he went forward to strike up a conversation . He did not expect that before he could even speak, he would be scolded very impolitely .

"Ha, girl, I think that there must be a misunderstanding . I have no bad intentions . I saw that you are alone and therefore wanted to invite you to watch this auction with me . " However, this tender-looking young man was also not an ordinary playboy . Although he was scolded, he still kept a gentle smile and spoke in an elegant and polite tone .

"Not interested . "

His humble attitude was, however, completely useless against the girl in white clothes . She rolled her eyes and rejected him directly, after which, she started to walk away .

The tender-looking young man finally frowned slightly .

Behind him, an emotionless old man in black robes stepped forward, just blocking the girl in white clothes . He said tonelessly, "He already made the invitation . Girl, you should just accept it . "

Seeing the scene, the girl in white clothes raised her eyebrows . But just as she was about to hit the people in front of her with her palm, a hand extended from the side and held her wrist .

The sudden contact made the girl's body stiffen, and she quickly wanted to break free . However, when she saw the familiar face she had met earlier, her struggle weakened .

"Ha, my sister is still immature . I hope that you two will not mind this . " Standing in front of the girl in white clothes, Mu Chen smiled at the tender-looking young man and the old man in black robes .

The tender-looking young man squinted slightly and stared at Mu Chen . After which, he saw Nine Nether beside Mu Chen . Immediately, a spark could be seen in the depths of his eyes .

But before he could say anything, the old man in black robes stepped forward, separating him from Nine Nether . He stared at the latter with a cautious look .

Clearly, he had noticed the threat from Nine Nether .

Seeing that, the tender-looking young man lifted his eyebrows . Then, he glanced at Mu Chen and Nine Nether with a faint smile . Without actually saying anything, he smiled, turned around, and walked away . In addition, the place they were going was also an attic at the front of the auction hall .

"These two have an extraordinary background . If I am not mistaken, they should be from the Tian Xuan Hall on the Tianluo Continent," Nine Nether said softly, looking at their backs .

"Tian Xuan Hall?"

"That is also one of the strongest clans on the Tianluo Continent . It is no weaker than our Daluo Territory," Nine Nether said .

Mu Chen shook his head resignedly . He did not expect that before he had even reached the Tianluo Continent, he would have already offended one of the top clans there . Although the tender-looking young man seemed to be generous, he knew that this kind of person would probably be very stingy .

"Hey, let me go!" Seeing that the two had left, the girl in white clothes, who was called Lin Jing, quickly broke free from Mu Chen's hands . She held her own wrist and stared at Mu Chen with her clever eyes .

Letting go of her, Mu Chen said helplessly, "You are such a troublemaker . "

Hearing that, Lin Jing was immediately displeased . She said as if she had been wronged, "What trouble did I make? I don't even know that bastard!

"Also, that bastard actually dared to flirt with me . I am so angry . I must tell this to my dad . No, I will tell Uncle Diao . I will tell Uncle Hu! I will ask them to beat this bastard until he dies or becomes handicapped!"

Lin Jing gritted her teeth and kept scolding . Probably it was her first time encountering someone who was so confident and who dared to flirt with her .

Hearing the scolding from the girl, Mu Chen twitched his mouth resignedly . Without paying attention to her, he and Nine Nether walked directly to the seats in front .

Seeing that Mu Chen had turned around and left, Lin Jing hesitated for a short moment and then also quickly followed them .
