Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife
Chapter 536: Betrayed!
Upon seeing the Alchemy Furnace, a trace of joy appeared in Chen Xiao’s eyes as he took it into his hands.
"Not bad, it’s good quality."
Previously, when Chen Xiao was on the mountain, he had also used some decent Alchemy Furnaces, but those were private collections of Xuan Daozi, and compared to this Alchemy Furnace, they were lacking.
With this Alchemy Furnace, the success rate of refining the Tianxuan Great Rejuvenation Pill would be much higher.
"Sir, according to our auction house’s rules, if you are worried about ill-intentioned people harboring malicious thoughts towards you after acquiring your auction items, you can leave this place through our secret passage."
Hearing this, Chen Xiao nodded and said, "I understand."
He glanced at the middle-aged man beside him and saw that his identity was not simple; he should be someone of relatively high status within the Heavenly Dragon Auction House. After a pause, he asked, "I have something on hand. I wonder if you could help me take a look?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I am Cheng Jinsan, one of the seven managers of the Heavenly Dragon Auction House. If you have something good, you can take it out and let me have a look."
Hearing this, Chen Xiao took out the Jade Pendant that the girl in the purple dress had given him earlier.
"Mr. Cheng, do you know what this is?!"
Cheng Jinsan took the Token from Chen Xiao’s hand and, after examining it for a few seconds, his face suddenly changed dramatically, and he knelt on the ground with a thud.
This scene startled Chen Xiao.
"Mr. Cheng, you are..."
Cheng Jinsan lowered his head, full of respect, "This is the Mystic Sky Token of the Xuantian Sect!"
"To us disciples of the Xuantian Sect, seeing the Mystic Sky Token is like seeing the Sect Hierarch!"
Hearing this, Chen Xiao’s eyelid twitched.
After Cheng Jinsan said this, he was even more surprised. It seemed that the girl in the purple dress wasn’t exaggerating; the background of this Token was indeed astonishing!
Who exactly was that girl in the purple dress?
"I am not a member of the Xuantian Sect, so there is no need for you to give me such grand courtesy."
Cheng Jinsan respectfully asked, "Young Master Chen, may I ask... where did you get this Mystic Sky Token? As far as I know, there are only a few of these Mystic Sky Tokens in the entire Xuantian Sect."
"Those who possess the Mystic Sky Token have a remarkably high status and position within our Xuantian Sect!"
Chen Xiao could only tell the other party everything that had just happened, word for word.
"Girl with purple hair?!"
Cheng Jinsan, being only a marginal figure in the Xuantian Sect, did not know the girl with purple hair, but he inferred that if she were indeed from the Xuantian Sect, she must have a significant background.
He said, "Perhaps our chief knows the background of this girl with purple hair!"
"Would Young Master Chen like to meet our chief?"
Chen Xiao thought for a moment and nodded.
"Alright, Young Master Chen, please wait here for a moment, I will immediately invite the chief over." Cheng Jinsan spoke respectfully, then returned the Mystic Sky Token to Chen Xiao with both hands.
However, as the Mystic Sky Token was an emblem of faith for their Xuantian Sect, he dared not make any decisions on his own.
He could only let the chief come and decide.
——
At this moment, deep within the Heavenly Dragon Auction House, a middle-aged man was sitting inside, wildly writing with a brush.
Just then, a knock on the door sounded.
"Chief, I have something important to report to you." Cheng Jinsan’s voice sounded.
"Speak!"
"Outside, there is a guest with a Mystic Sky Token!"
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, the chief let out a plop, and the brush fell directly onto the paper, "Why didn’t you say so earlier? If we neglect such an important guest, we might all be in trouble!"
The Mystic Sky Token, in the entire Xuantian Sect, is also a counted and treasured Sect token.
It represents the supreme authority of the Xuantian Sect.
Even if he were to meet the person holding the Tianxuan Order, he would have to humbly bow! 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
"Take me to see him!"
The chief threw down the brush immediately and rushed off to meet Chen Xiao.
——
At the same time.
Inside the VIP room where Chen Xiao was located.
The door was suddenly opened by someone.
Chen Xiao looked up and found that it was not Cheng Jinsan who entered, but Zheng Yiqi and Lan Zijian, along with others.
However, Zhao Xingyu was not among them.
He raised an eyebrow; normally, his identity and whereabouts should be confidential.
How did these people find out where he was?
Zheng Yiqi smiled faintly, his tone cold, "Chen Xiao, you’re quite capable, daring to compete with me for things! Do you know the consequences of doing so?!"
Chen Xiao replied coldly, "This is the Heavenly Dragon Auction House, are you daring to break the rules here?!"
"Behind me is the Dao Qi Sect, and you, you’re just insignificant trash without any background or power! Tell me, will the Heavenly Dragon Auction House side with me, or with you?"
Chen Xiao remained indifferent and asked in a deep voice, "There are many VIP rooms here, how did you know which one I was in?"
"As long as we want to know, there are naturally ways!" Zheng Yiqi sneered, "This is what you call dimensionality reduction attack! You want to play with me, you’ve still got a long way to go!"
"So, Heavenly Dragon Auction House sold me out?!" Chen Xiao said coldly.
