Chapter 553 - 547: Ye Zhen’s Gift
"Vice Sect Master Tian, both you and Master Fengh possess invitations; however, you’ve brought someone without an invitation. Therefore, according to the rules, you must first pay a pre-auction deposit of 50,000 mid-grade spirit crystals," just as Ye Zhen and the others had stepped into the courtyard of the Heavenly Spirit Auction House, they were stopped by a deacon.
"Of course, the guest brought by Vice Sect Master Tian wouldn’t disrupt the rules. Just a kind reminder to think thrice before bidding—if there’s a false bid or malicious competition, this deposit of 50,000 mid-grade spirit crystals will be confiscated," said the deacon tactfully.
"Understood!"
"Please come this way to make the payment!"
The deacon from the Heavenly Spirit Auction House led Ye Zhen into a highly guarded room within the courtyard, which served as the place for settling transactions with spirit crystals. After Ye Zhen paid the 50,000 mid-grade spirit crystals, he received a talisman token made from Purple Spirit Jade.
This talisman contained a number and also recorded the information of Ye Zhen’s deposited spirit crystals, which he could use to settle his account when leaving.
"You three are together, right?" asked the deacon from the Heavenly Spirit Auction House.
"Together!"
Before Ye Zhen could answer, Tian Guizhang and Fengh Qingyue simultaneously spoke on behalf of Ye Zhen, looking somewhat anxious, especially Tian Guizhang.
He probably wanted to urgently find out about the Demon Cloud Fruit in Ye Zhen’s possession.
