82: Chapter 82 Attending the Meeting with a Beauty, Undercurrents Abound

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

The top-tier auction of the Tianyi Chamber of Commerce arrived on schedule.

On this day, Baifeng City was bustling with activity.

Countless streaks of light rose from all directions of the city, flowing like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, all converging toward the most magnificent nine-story glazed pagoda in the city center.

Below the pagoda, it was already a scene of heavy traffic and tight security.

Only honored guests holding gold-stamped invitations were qualified to step inside.

A luxurious carriage pulled by two spirited Firecloud Horses stopped slowly on the red carpet in front of the pagoda gate.

The carriage door opened, and Gu Yan, dressed in a moon-white brocade robe with a handsome face and a calm demeanor, was the first to step out.

He ignored the curious and inquisitive gazes cast from all around.

Instead, he turned around and extended a hand with great grace.

A slender, jade-like hand rested in his palm.

Following that, Jin Feiyan, wearing a golden dress that swept the floor, outlining her fiery and hot figure, and sporting a bright, moving smile on her face, stepped out of the carriage gracefully.

Her appearance instantly attracted the gaze of all the men present!

"Is... Is that Miss Jin of the Tianyi Chamber of Commerce?"

"Heavens! She actually came to greet someone in person? Who exactly is the young man beside her?!"

A wave of irrepressible exclamations erupted in the crowd.

However, this was just the beginning.

After Jin Feiyan, another figure emerged from the carriage...

A peerlessly beautiful figure that could make the heavens and earth lose their color.

A woman dressed in a plain white long dress, with a cold and aloof temperament like a Fairy from the Moon Palace.

Her face was covered by a thin veil, making it impossible to see her full appearance clearly.

But just by her cold Phoenix eyes, which were like autumn water and cold stars, and her otherworldly, peerless temperament, it was enough to make all the women present pale in comparison!

It was Leng Yuechan, whose injuries had already recovered by seven or eight parts.

Gu Yan stood there naturally in the middle of two peerless beauties who had different temperaments, one plump and one slender, yet both breathtakingly beautiful.

On his left was Jin Feiyan, successful in the business world and as passionate as fire, representing his current hot... wealth and status in this Baifeng City.

On his right was the cold and mysterious Leng Yuechan, representing his unfathomable... strength and background.

This combination itself was the highest-profile... declaration of strength!

Without a single word, it was enough to become... the focus of the entire venue!

"Who is that?"

"What a grand display! To be accompanied by both Miss Jin and another Fairy?"

"I recognize him! He is the behind-the-scenes boss of the 'Gus Pill Shop' that has recently stirred up the entire Medicinal Pill market, Gu Yan!"

"So it's him! No wonder..."

The surrounding guests cast all kinds of gazes.

There was envy, jealousy, curiosity, and even... undisguised hostility!

"Young Master Gu, please."

Jin Feiyan seemed long accustomed to this feeling of being in the spotlight. She smiled and introduced the surrounding guests to Gu Yan.

"The one wearing the official robe of the City Lord's Mansion is the City Lord's own younger brother, Deputy Commander Li."

"Over there, the one wearing the Eight Trigrams Daoist robe is the Second Master of the Li Family, one of the three major Families, a high-level cultivator proficient in the Dao of Talismans."

"And that one..."

While listening, Gu Yan calmly committed the figures from these top forces in Baifeng City to memory one by one.

Just at this moment, a cold gaze filled with resentment and jealousy was cast from not far away.

Gu Yan looked to the side.

He saw the Young Lord of the Chen Family, Chen Xuanfeng, stepping down from another more luxurious carriage with several Guest Elders of the Family.

His face was terrifyingly gloomy.

When he saw Gu Yan, especially when he saw the scene of Gu Yan surrounded by two peerless beauties as if he were holding them in his arms, the fire of jealousy instantly ignited in his sinister eyes!

Jin Feiyan!

This woman, whom he had pursued for many years but who had always treated him with indifference, was now smiling like a flower at an outsider, a country bumpkin!

And that woman in white...

Her appearance and temperament actually seemed... to be three points better than Jin Feiyan's!

Why?!

Why did this bastard, who appeared from nowhere, get all the good things?!

"Yo, I wondered who it was, putting on such a big show."

Chen Xuanfeng could not suppress the anger in his heart. He took the initiative to walk up and began to provoke in a Yin and Yang tone.

"Isn't this the big boss Gu, who recently made some black-hearted money by selling fake Medicinal Pills?"

"Why, did you make some money in the Medicinal Pill business and dare to learn from others to come to a place like this?"

"And you always have beauties by your side, what a... wonderful luck with women."

His words were extremely mean, full of humiliation.

However, Gu Yan seemed to have heard nothing at all.

He didn't even bother to spare an extra glance for this clown.

He just smiled at Jin Feiyan beside him and said: "The auction is about to start, right? Let's go in."

"Okay." Jin Feiyan was naturally happy to see Chen Xuanfeng deflated. She smiled charmingly and took Gu Yan's arm again, her posture intimate.

The three of them, under the gaze of Chen Xuanfeng, who looked as if he was about to spit fire, treated him as if he were nothing.

They walked straight past him.

And entered the magnificent pagoda.

"Ah—!!!"

Left in the original spot, Chen Xuanfeng was trembling with rage, his handsome face slightly distorted by extreme anger!

He clenched his fists tightly, his nails deeply embedded in his palms!

"Gu Yan!"

"You just wait for this Young Lord!"

"At the upcoming auction, I will definitely make you... lose all face! And go bankrupt!"

He let out a beast-like, resentful low roar.

The VIP box of the Tianyi Chamber of Commerce was located on the top floor of the pagoda.

The view was excellent, and one could overlook the huge circular auction venue below.

Under the guidance of the maid, the three of them entered the top-tier "Heaven No. 1" box that had already been prepared for them.

Inside the box, not only were comfortable soft couches placed, but rare spiritual fruits and spiritual wine were also prepared.

Gu Yan sat down on the main seat casually.

He looked at the venue below, which was already full and noisy, and looked at the powerful figures with extraordinary auras, his eyes as calm as water.

He knew.

Today, here.

A war without smoke was about to...

Begin.
