"This..."
Hearing how resolute he was, General Zhi Yao knew he could no longer dissuade him. He could only shake his head. "Your Highness, please be careful. If anything happens, send me a message. I'll bring men over immediately!"
"Alright!" Nie Yun nodded.
They chatted for a while longer. Seeing that Nie Yun truly would not return with them, while he himself was anxious to go back and report, General Zhi Yao could only rise and take his leave.
The moment they left, Nie Yun's heart stirred, and a communication jade talisman appeared in his palm.
It was the one Wei Buxin of the Fire God Auction House had left him back then.
"Have you found news of Tantai Lingyue?"
Seeing the message appear on the jade talisman, Nie Yun's heart stirred.
His only connection with Wei Buxin was Tantai Lingyue. If the man was seeking him out now, he must have found some clue.
"Miss Bi'er, return to the Fire God Sect first. I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave here!"
Rejecting Miss Bi'er's intention to follow him, Nie Yun's body flashed, and he shot straight toward the auction house.
Now, everyone believed him to be a prince of the Pu Tian Dynasty. Since that was the case, it was best not to expose his identity as an ascender. The fewer people who knew about Tantai Lingyue, the better.
His current location was not too far from the auction house. After traveling for less than half a day, he arrived there once more.
There was no auction today, and the place was far more deserted than before.
"Stop! There's no auction today. Please return another time!"
Before he could enter, several armored young men blocked his way.
"I have business with your auction house master,"
