Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuxi had no choice but to follow in her master's footsteps.

Then we arrived at the roof of another house.

Xiao Yuxi carefully observed her master's expression and saw that Leng Yuening's amethyst-like eyes were closely following Ye Ge. As Ye Ge made close contact with the girl beside him, her small hand, which was holding onto the stone pillar, tightened its grip and left several finger marks on the hard stone.

And in Master's eyes... there was a hint of sourness?

Xiao Yuxi pondered for a moment and said, "Master, if you really want to join them, why don't you just go down there?"

Leng Yue Ning: "???"

"I didn't!!!"

Xiao Yuxi smiled faintly.

As soon as she saw Leng Yuening's reaction, she knew she was right.

It's actually quite easy to guess what her master is thinking, since her master is really innocent and adorable.

"Master, there's no need to be shy." Xiao Yuxi held her master's hands and said, "Besides Ye Ge, you can also make more friends."

"...What kind of friends?" Leng Yuening pouted and turned her head away. "They are all young people, all teenagers. How can someone like me, who is over a thousand years old, be friends with them?"

“In the world of extraordinary beings, age doesn’t matter,” Xiao Yuxi said.

"No, no!" Leng Yuening shook her head vigorously like a rattle-drum. "Many of them are Lan Mi's students. It would be too embarrassing if she found out. No way!"

Xiao Yuxi thought for a moment: "Then... you can bump into me by chance?"

Leng Yue Ning was taken aback.

This reminded her...

Was it a chance encounter...?

......

After strolling around for a while, Ye Ge and the other women arrived at a magnificent, splendid, painted, and imposing large building.

At the entrance of the building, numerous burly guards from various races stood in rows, their expressions stern.

Luxury cars, horse-drawn carriages, and dragon carriages were parked in front of the building.

Long Ying turned her head slightly, her bright eyes scanning the surroundings from beneath her hood.

She saw many world-renowned merchants, wealthy people from other races, and lords and nobles from various places on the map of all races.

"Where is this place?" Bai Qing asked, puzzled.

"The pinnacle auction hosted by the Myriad Races Merchant Guild." An Lingyue gracefully rested her chin on her slender fingers, a slight smile playing on her lips. "It's held once every ten years, only during the Myriad Races Summit."

"What are we doing here?" Xia Xiyao turned her head: "Xiao Ye, is there anything you want to buy?"

Ye Ge smiled slightly and did not answer, "Let's go in and take a look." With that, she stepped up the stairs and walked inside.

Seeing this, the other women all followed suit.

In the shadows, several figures following closely behind were secretly observing the movements of Ye Ge and the others.

A member of the Sun Wheel Clan, with a sinister look in his eyes, opened the system panel communication: "Reporting, sir, they have gone to the venue of the Myriad Races Peak Auction."

......

As Ye Ge entered the venue, she immediately spotted a familiar face.

"Leng Yue Ning?"

Ye Ge was stunned.

Leng Yuening appeared before Ye Ge and the others, accompanied by her disciple Xiao Yuxi, and made an expression as if she had just happened to be passing by.

"Oh, it's you guys." Leng Yuening glanced at Ye Ge and the girl behind him.

Although her heart was pounding and she longed to get close to Ye Ge immediately, she had to suppress her excitement because of the many younger girls around her, including Xi'er.

Leng Yuening adopted her usual cold and aloof demeanor and said indifferently, "I didn't expect to run into you here by such a coincidence."

Night Song: "..."

He had actually sensed with his mental power that Leng Yuening had been secretly following them for quite some time...

What a coincidence! Who would believe that...?

But, to my surprise, this socially awkward girl actually dared to come into such a crowded place this time?

“Isn’t this the Cold Palace Master?” An Lingyue said with a smile, “I heard from my teacher that you always prefer to cultivate in the mountains and dislike noise. It’s rare that you’ve come down the mountain to attend the Myriad Races Summit. It’s truly a rare occasion.”

“…” Leng Yuening gritted her teeth secretly, thinking that Lan Mi was just saying that she was a homebody.

"Yes, I also need to go down the mountain occasionally to experience life in the mortal world so that I can cultivate better," Leng Yuening replied calmly.

Ye Ge smiled helplessly and shook his head.

"Alright, let's go to the private room."

not far away.

Several informants were still watching them.

Several men in suits, holding wine glasses and pretending to chat, cast their cold glances at me.

......

Ye Ge and the other women entered a luxurious VIP box.

With Ye Ge's wealth and status, he is absolutely qualified to enter such a private room.

Here you can get a clear and unobstructed view of the auction venue below.

"The Pinnacle Auction is not your average noble auction. Besides extremely valuable extraordinary treasures and rare materials, it even sells very precious territorial resources." Long Ying said, glancing at Ye Ge beside her, seemingly realizing that his purpose in coming here was not just to browse: "Is there anything you'd like to buy?"

Ye Ge's eyes were playful: "Things you want to buy... there are some, and I've already found out about them beforehand. But let's take a look first; maybe there will be other things that interest us."

He turned his head slightly, glancing at a Ye family subordinate behind him: "Lin Jianxiu, go and get me the auction list for this event."

He was quite casual about accompanying the women today, and didn't bring many attendants. Besides Li Shuying and Bai Qing, he only brought two male Ye family warriors: Arthur and Lin Jianxiu.

"Yes." Lin Jianxiu nodded slightly and withdrew.

Soon, he brought Ye Ge a tablet computer—this was the list that the auction provided to the VIPs in each private room, allowing them to bid directly through the tablet.

Ye Ge picked up the tablet and quickly glanced at it.

"Hmm... It's similar to what I heard; they have all the important goods."

Night Song raised her finger, tapped on a few of the items, and then entered the bidding price.
