Chapter 83: Auction Preparation
He cultivated the whole day and night and stood up only when the morning of the next day arrived, the day when the auction was to be held.
He stretched himself; he had a noticeable increase in his cultivation realm, but it was still far from reaching the Mid Stage of the Core Formation Realm.
It is already considered very swift, as ordinary cultivators usually take years to even break through to minor stages.
He went out, and the maid was still standing nearby. He was surprised by this; if he wasn’t mistaken, she always stood there whenever he was in the room.
So, essentially, she had been standing there since the evening of the first day, when he returned from his walk in the city. She was at the peak of the Qi Refinement Realm, but considering her age, she definitely possessed the lowest spiritual root; reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm might be her limit.
He shook his head inwardly; even being a cultivator doesn’t guarantee a joyous life.
"When is the auction?"
"Esteemed guest, it will commence at noon. There are still four hours remaining. The Mistress instructed me to remind you two hours prior to the auction. She also said you should meet her once you emerge."
Jiang Hao nodded and went to meet Mei Ling. He still had those pills with him; for the auction, he must hand them over to her.
He approached her chamber, and the door opened again as he reached it.
"You should submit the pills. I’ve received word that everyone is taking this auction most seriously.
