"What? Do you want to go inside and take a look?" Mo Changhong asked gently.
Xiao Gourd nodded, and without waiting for Mo Changhong to respond, he stepped towards the Sky Beyond the Skies Auction House.
Mo Changhong smiled and muttered softly under his breath.
"Truly decisive!"
Saying this, he followed along.
The group crossed the street and arrived at the entrance of the Sky Beyond the Skies Auction House.
It was clear that an auction was already in progress inside, as the doors were tightly shut, with only a few guards stationed in attendance.
Seeing the group approach, the guards intended to stop them, but Mo Changhong casually tossed over a name card.
"Open the door and let us in!"
Upon seeing the name on the card, the guards couldn’t help but gasp, quickly stepping aside.
"Yes! Shopkeeper Mo and esteemed guests, please come in!"
Saying this, someone pushed open the door, and Mo Changhong confidently led the group into the auction hall.
And this scene was witnessed by those from the Si Family secretly tailing them, prompting someone to immediately rush back to report.
In the blink of an eye, Si Mingqi, stationed in the back, received the news and couldn’t help but be startled.
"What did you say? They entered the Sky Beyond the Skies Auction House?"
"Yes!"
Si Mingqi’s face bore a contemplative look.
What is Mo Changhong up to?
Why did he suddenly bring people to the auction house?
After pondering for a moment, he abruptly raised his head, his gaze resolute: "Let’s go! We’ll also head to the Sky Beyond the Skies Auction House to see what’s going on!"
"Yes!"
With the influence of the Si Family, they didn’t expend much effort sneaking into the auction house.
Of course, to avoid detection, both Si Mingqi and Guang Zhong had disguised themselves and did not go to a private box but sat in the main hall.
At this moment, the auction just reached its halfway point, and it was obvious that the items auctioned earlier weren’t anything valuable, leaving a relaxed atmosphere in the venue with many people whispering to each other.
In fact, this was the usual state of the auction; after all, not every auction has hits.
Often, those attending this Sky Beyond the Skies auction merely treat it as a platform for exchanging information and observing prices.
Si Mingqi naturally had attended the auctions at Sky Beyond the Skies before, albeit not on this planet, but the chain nature of the establishments meant that almost all were quite similar, so he was not unfamiliar with it.
However, his attention wasn’t on the auction items at the front but constantly glancing towards the private boxes at the back.
He was sure that Mo Changhong must be in one of those boxes with the young girl.
But that was as far as he could confirm; he didn’t know which specific box they were in.
Thinking of this, he pondered for a moment, then waved a hand.
An auction economist responsible for the hall approached.
"What orders does the lord have?" the economist asked with a smile.
"Is there anything valuable today?" Si Mingqi asked.
"Which aspect and what standard do you mean?" the economist asked professionally.
"Something that would catch the interest of a powerful faction!"
The economist shook his head without hesitation, "No, today’s auction is just a routine event with nothing particularly eye-catching. With the gathering about to commence, many buyers and sellers are holding back to strike deals then, so the market is quite subdued!"
Si Mingqi nodded, then tossed over a shard of crystal.
"Thank you!"
