Time quietly passed.
Amid the expectant and watchful gazes of everyone present, Bai Di Auction House's dedicated pill auction was finally about to begin.
That day, outside the newly renovated Bai Di Auction House, two neat rows of bamboo baskets covered in red paper had been placed out, each filled with fresh flowers.
Red lanterns hung on either side of Bai Di Auction House's plaque, bearing the large characters "Joy" and "Welcome."
A red carpet stretched from the entrance all the way down the steps, creating a thoroughly festive scene.
As early as two hours before the auction began, people started arriving one after another.
Since this was Black Seal City, if they did not show a little fang and claw, they could easily be taken for pushovers.
Who knew whether any of the people attending this auction had come with ill intentions?
Thus, Bai Ge changed his appearance. Taking on the image of a cold, silver-haired swordsman, he sat at the entrance with a sword in his arms, openly displaying the strength of a Dou Huang.
Perhaps due to Bai Ge's intimidation, everyone attending the auction behaved themselves and caused no trouble.
Guided by the maidservants, they entered the auction house without incident and made their way into the inner Auction Hall.
Time continued to pass.
Over the course of two hours, more and more people arrived. Before long, every seat in the Auction Hall was filled.
Looking across the entire Auction Hall, not a single person had a cultivation below that of a Great Dou Master.
As expected of the Black Corner Region, wasn't it?
When the time finally came, Ya Fei, dressed in a red gown and holding an auction hammer in one hand, ascended the auction stage from the passage behind it with a charming smile
