Chapter 89: Sheng Bao Tang

  Of course, Sheng Bao Tang is not a place where just anyone can enter! Even if it's a first-class businessman or a well-known official family, before entering, they must weigh their purse to see if it's thick enough. Otherwise, if something embarrassing happens here, it will be a matter of immediate fame!

  The Sheng Bao Tang, which can bring countless surprises to people, also has a very mysterious origin. No one knows who the mastermind behind Sheng Bao Tang is, nor does anyone know which family or mysterious force it belongs to.

  Since the day Tianxiang City was established, there has been this Shengbao Hall; after going through many wars and changes of dynasties, countless emperors and generals have all turned to dust and smoke, becoming buried history, but Shengbao Hall has always stood tall, even... thriving!

  Anyone who has ever thought of Dong Sheng Bao Tang, whether it is the powerful and noble in the imperial court, the wealthy merchants among the people, or the high-ranking martial artists from both the white and black worlds, have all turned into white bones at this moment, without a single exception!

  Even the young masters of the top families in Tianxiang City, once they arrived at Shengbaotang, would all become very obedient. This kind of place was exactly where Jun Moxie used to dislike going the most. But now it had become the place that piqued Jun Moxie's curiosity the most!

  What if a fire were to be set in such a place? It would surely be extremely stimulating, wouldn't it? Jun Mo Xie thought to himself as he leaned against the soft cushion in his sedan chair, not without malicious intent. What's the big deal about bullying ordinary commoners for a young master from an official's family? That would only earn him contempt! If you want to stir up trouble, you should go swat flies on a tiger's head - that's what I call stimulating!

  Every day fighting with small shrimp, after defeating all the small shrimp, even if you win, it's just a slightly stronger small shrimp.

  If you want to cause trouble, find a formidable opponent, that's more fun, interesting, exciting and enjoyable!

  Sheng Bao Tang, hmm, it's a great place haha. But for now, I'll just put this addiction on hold. I'll come back and play when I'm stronger.

  You're a big killer, no matter in the past or present, you're always bold and fearless. What is there that you wouldn't dare to do? Sheng Bao Tang is particularly unconventional, but in his heart, it's just an auction house after all. It can really turn the world upside down!

  To keep pace with Jun Mo Xie, Tang Yuan deliberately rode a tall horse and followed beside the sedan chair, occasionally turning his head to say a few words. As they approached Sheng Bao Hall, Tang Bao suddenly had an odd idea and stroked his chin, saying: "Third Young Master, I feel like we're just like a groom welcoming his bride, one on horseback and the other in the sedan chair! Third Young Master, why don't you just marry me?"

  "Get lost! Die somewhere else, stop annoying me here!" Jun Mo Xie's stomach churned with a wave of nausea, and he dry-heaved once before letting the curtain fall with a "swish", leaving that person to laugh even louder outside.

  At the entrance of Sheng Bao Tang, Tang Yuan dismounted his horse, which was already foaming at the mouth. In fact, Tang Yuan's horse was a top-notch steed, but Tang Yuan himself was just too heavy for it.

  Jun Mo Xie, with a sickly complexion, had just gotten off the sedan chair when he took a deep breath of cool air.

  Isn't this Sheng Bao Tang a bit... too big?! Is this really the legendary "auction house"?!

  Isn't this a bit too much?

  No matter which country, as long as it is in the capital of a country, except for military camps, no one and nowhere dares to build buildings larger than the imperial palace. This is an unpardonable crime, equivalent to treason, with the intention of plotting evil and unforgivable crimes!

  But Sheng Bao Tang is daring!

  The magnificent Sheng Bao Tang in front of him, in Jun Mo Xie's memory, was indeed much larger than the imperial palace! And more luxurious and lively! However, regarding this point, the royal family seemed to be completely indifferent, and instead took pride in it. This alone was enough to make Jun Mo Xie's imagination run wild. Jun Mo Xie thought to himself, it seems that the Tian Xiang Imperial Family knows about Sheng Bao Tang's background.

  However, Sheng Bao Tang still gave face to the Tian Xiang Imperial Family, and the largest private room inside was specially reserved for the Tian Xiang Imperial Family. Whether or not anyone came, this private room would always be empty. Several other countries also had their own private rooms here, they were just relatively smaller.

  As for the various major families in Tianxiang City, each has its own private room, but they have to pay a substantial "room fee" on a regular basis. None of these families would be displeased with this special rule! On the contrary, the high-level private rooms around the auction hall, except for a limited number, are almost all fixed, because the remaining seats are basically in the main hall. If the young masters of the aristocratic families sit in the main hall, they will lose their identity!

  So, Sheng Bao Tang's private rooms have long since transformed into a special symbol of status!

  It is extremely rare for new nobles to join.

  In addition, Sheng Bao Tang seems to be crazy about making money on the surface, and is not interested in any political affairs or disputes. However, if someone tries to escape into Sheng Bao Tang thinking they can get protection, that would be a big mistake. Sheng Bao Tang will bind them up completely and hand them over, saving the officials and related personnel the trouble of chasing after them. Regardless of whether the person is guilty or not, or what their original intention was, if you sneak into Sheng Bao Tang with the intention of causing trouble, that in itself is already a huge crime!

  Don't squint your eyes, looking at the wide gate of Sheng Bao Tang, which is as wide as a city gate. Although Third Young Master Jun has never set foot here, he also knows that Sheng Bao Tang holds auctions almost every day, but the truly fine items are only auctioned off once a month.

  And today, coincidentally, is this day.

  Fine art auctions have always been very lively.

  Another biggest weirdness of Sheng Bao Tang is the items that are auctioned off. Almost no one knows their origin, and no one has ever seen Sheng Bao Tang engage in any purchasing or pawnbroking activities, all the auction items seem to be produced by Sheng Bao Tang itself, which makes it even more mysterious.

  Tang Baozi seemed to have been here a few times, turned his head and beckoned, Jun Mo Xie hastily followed him, the eight guards following closely behind left one waiting for the guard who went back to retrieve the silver ticket, the remaining seven entered in single file.

  You were walking along normally, but suddenly furrowed your brow!

  This Sheng Bao Tang is indeed not simple at all?

  As soon as he entered the gate, there were five or six divine thoughts that swept over him one after another. Almost every two steps, turning a corner would trigger an inspection! This made Jun Moxie's heart highly alert! According to his speculation, each of these hidden individuals possessed strength no lower than that of a Jade Product Realm cultivator!

  This is just an internal inspection from Sheng Bao Tang.

  Behind Jun Mo Xie, two groups of people walked in, each carrying a dark and sinister killing aura - the same kind! This was something that Jun Mo Xie was most familiar with, so he naturally wouldn't mistake it. Moreover, these two groups were extremely wary of each other, as if they were on a battlefield. Therefore, Jun Mo Xie concluded that the two groups behind him would absolutely not be friends.

  They were peers with themselves, at least they used to be.

  As they walked further forward, after going up the stairs for just a few steps, it was already the Tang family's private room. Jun Mo Xie, while supporting himself with one hand on the railing of the stairs, seemed to stumble slightly and almost lost his balance. Taking this opportunity to turn back and take a glance, he saw six black-clad men walking in the opposite direction, three people per group, entering two separate private rooms. One of them had a door curtain embroidered with a golden chrysanthemum; another private room had a black curtain embroidered with a white lotus flower.

  The grand hall was already packed with people, but they were all seated calmly and peacefully. The waiters carried plates in an orderly manner, weaving in and out of the crowd, their numbers were large, but it was extremely quiet. After all, these people felt that they did not have the qualifications to be arrogant in the Sheng Bao Hall.

  As he walked into the private room, Jun Mo Xie glanced around at the familiar decorations of his family's private room. On the snow-white curtains, a large blood lily flower was blooming eerily, and he couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. Since his family had reserved this private room, they had only entered it maybe two or three times, and he didn't know what his grandfather was thinking, yet he continued to pay the fees on time, leaving it intact, truly giving face to Sheng Bao Tang.

  "Whose private rooms are those?" Jun Moxie intentionally or unintentionally pointed at the two groups of black-clad men who had entered the private rooms and asked.

  A tall tree in the forest will be broken by the wind. This sentence is really true - when my male friends see me, they all want to beat me up! Wherever I stand, I'm like a crane standing among chickens, no one dares to stand beside me! My own elegance has stolen the spotlight from both the groom and bride!

  "Hey, I didn't say a single word about how handsome I am in the passage above, heaven and earth can be my witnesses! You are not allowed to attack me!"
