CHAPTER 161: EXTRAVAGANT

"Sigh, Junior brother is really quite wise....I am going to pass information about him leaving the sect and the reason." One of them sighed and looked at his companion who was still looking at Lin Feng’s back with a little surprised expression. The guard frowned, "What happened?"

Surely he wasn’t that surprised by junior brother’s words, right?

"Have you checked junior brother’s cultivation realm?"

"Hm?.."

The guard looked at Lin Feng’s back as he was still in view. He was immediately able to look through his cultivation realm as Lin Feng wasn’t hiding anything, "How? Did he take some pills..."

"Who knows... It’s not something we should worry about. Go and report about him going out..."

"Ok.."

...

Lin Feng slowly walked for a few steps before he flew up.

In just a few breaths, he reached the city gate entrance and came down. Flying wasn’t forbidden inside the city for disciples of the Yin Yang Harmony Sect, but they had to enter through the gate.

Once he entered, he directly went towards the center of the city while flying. The Skycloud Auction Pavilion was there. Any good auction pavilion or hall would have its own treasure shop to sell items which they didn’t auction off. There was a good chance he could find a good robe and mask there itself.

When he arrived in the center area, he could easily locate the Auction Pavilion. It was quite majestic.

He landed in front and looked towards the entrance. Only a single guard was standing in front of the entrance. He was in the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm.

Not too strong, but Lin Feng doubted he was here to protect the pavilion anyway. His only work would be to not allow unworthy people to enter inside.

He wasn’t worried that he would be stopped. His cultivation realm of the Core Formation realm would be enough to make him eligible to enter easily, not to mention his sect robes.

He easily passed through, and the guard didn’t even say anything. He in fact bowed a little to show respect.

Once he came inside, a maid immediately came to him.

"Welcome—" Her eyes widened as she looked at Lin Feng. She even forgot the next words for a few breaths before she collected her thoughts, "Ahh... sorry, welcome senior... how may I help you?"

She was a little conscious of her own appearance now. She just hoped that he didn’t find her ugly.

Lin Feng was quite used to this look, so he didn’t fret over it, "I want to buy some robes and masks."

The maid nodded immediately, "We do have some excellent robes made from mystic silk and beautiful masks. Please follow me."

Lin Feng nodded and followed. He wasn’t overly concerned about the quality of the robes or mask as long as they served their purpose of hiding his identity.

They walked for a while before they arrived at an area which seemed to be on the left side of the pavilion. The moment he entered, a lot of items came into his view.

All items were placed on wooden racks to be showcased. There were weapons on one side, pill bottles on a different side, spirit herbs, spirit rings, storage bags, array diagrams, talismans, and some other miscellaneous treasures.

The maid took him a little deeper, where he could see a rack filled with robes, and there were masks nearby too.

"Look at those robes, senior." She pointed out the five robes placed differently from other robes, "They are made from mystic silk. They are the best robes in the pavilion right now."

Lin Feng looked at the robes and nodded. He didn’t mind spending spirit stones on them, but all of them were inscribed with intricate embroidery, making them appear rather extravagant.

He turned his attention to normal ones and picked 2 black robes, "I will take these."

Without waiting for her response, he went and picked 2 plain masks too, "This will do. Tell me how much for them?"

The maid wanted to tell him that with his looks, he would look perfect in the mystic robes, but she stopped herself. Her duty was only to sell what the guests desired, not to persuade them into what they should buy.

Her mistress was rather stringent about this fact. Unless guests asked for help, they should not interfere. This prevented the situation of offending the guests, "The total will be 25 spirit stones."

Lin Feng immediately took out 25 spirit stones and handed them to her, "I want to ask about the auctions held here."

The maid took the spirit stones and put them in her storage bag, "Yes, of course. Ask anything, senior. I will answer all your queries."

Lin Feng had only heard about this auction pavilion but didn’t know how and when they arranged auctions, so he was pretty clueless about it, "Tell me everything."

The maid was surprised. Their pavilion was very famous in the Eastern Region. Almost all cultivators knew about them, especially a disciple of the Yin Yang Harmony Sect.

Well, since she had accepted to answer him, she would do so, "Senior, we hold three types of auctions. First is weekly... they are the smallest auctions we organize. Second is monthly. This is far bigger than a weekly auction, and last is yearly... the biggest auction of our pavilion.

The next weekly auction is in 2 days. The monthly auction is held on the last day of every month. Similarly, the yearly auction happens on the last day of the last month of the year."

Lin Feng nodded in understanding, "I want to auction some pills in the next weekly auction."

The maid nodded, "You can definitely do so. What is the grade of the pill and the amount?"

Many cultivators were fortunate enough to find pills in inheritance sites or some hidden cave abodes of seniors. Their first choice was always to auction off those pills if they were not useful for them.

She had a feeling that Lin Feng had stumbled upon such an opportunity.

"It’s a Grade 3 early-stage pill, specifically a Core Formation Pill. There are 10 of them."

"Alright, please follow me. We have to check their authenticity." The maid said and walked back towards the exit of this hall.
