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.
