--- Chapter 72 ---

Black Seal Auction House is the most prominent Auction House in the Black Corner Region.

All varieties of treasures, medicine, dou techniques, and rare materials flowed in and out of this place continuously, changing from one's owner to another.

Even though gold coins are still appreciated, people know changing treasure for another is the best way to win an auctioned item.

You might be rich, but there is a limit on how wealth could push your status in this place. After all, Black Corner Region is the lawless area where one's strength and influence triumph over materialistic wealth.

Even nobles or royalty from the Northwest Region of the Dou Qi Continent didn't dare to enter the Black Seal Auction House without their guards because the risk of losing their lives after the auction was too high.

The Black Seal Auction House guarantees your safety inside the bidding hall but not on the outside. So good luck and pick your opponent wisely, as money is not everything.

At the entrance gate to the Black Seal Auction House, a tall white-haired man with a face mask stands lazily. He wore a simple black cloak, white shirt, and brown trousers, covering his muscular physique poorly.

A masked woman accompanied the white-haired man, wearing a purple silk qipao to cover her beautiful body. People might not be able to see her face, but they are sure this woman is a beauty.

"H-Hey. Is that person perhaps..."

"Yes, that man is Bai Ya."

"I heard he entered seclusion for a month and never went out, but a man like him is bound to be bored. Just look at that lady."

"Damn... This man is winning."

Baek Ain laughed inside because he didn't like people commenting on his lover's beauty. However, he does admit she looks gorgeous today.

'I told you to bring a mask...' Baek Ain whispered into Yafei's ears.

Yafei smiled under her rabbit-shaped mask and replied, 'No way I'd wear a training suit on a date. Be reasonable, Ain.'

'And this dress is the most casual one I have.'

Baek Ain sighed and returned, 'Nevermind, You win.'

"Hehe~!" Yafei circled her slender arm around Baek Ain's left arm.

As they were about to enter the Auction House, someone suddenly stopped and greeted them respectfully. It was a woman in a somewhat skimpy but not too revealing dress, showing her profession as an entertainer or dancer.

The woman said she got ordered by the Auction House's manager to pick up and escort them into the VVIP room.

Baek Ain knows the Black Seal Auction House's manager is an expert of 8-Star Dou Emperor, so he doesn't oppose the kind gesture.

However, Baek Ain still acts cautiously. The Sixth Sense and Cinder's Eyes are "constantly." activated upon stepping his foot inside this place.

Black Seal Auction House does deserve its reputation as the biggest auction house in the Black Corner Region.

After entering the gate, Baek Ain saw a massive hall with a grand red carpet and hanging lamps. On each side of the corridor, people rented the space and sold their goods for people to check.

Baek Ain spotted some rare items and bought them quickly, leaving no time for others to take them. Money isn't a problem for Baek Ain, so he drained over 100 million gold coins in just five minutes.

The escort suddenly opened her mouth and said, "Black Seal Auction House could deal with meager things like those items. You only have to form a contract with us, and we'll send daily resources to the Beast Taming Gate. Of course, with purchase and delivery costs."

"Delivery... Does the Black Seal Auction House use the delivery system from the Jia Ma Empire?" Yafei asked calmly.

The escort nodded and replied, "Our manager visited Jia Ma Empire to improve the Black Seal Auction House. He discovered such an efficient method for high-end factions to request the item from us, delivering it efficiently."

"I believe the noble house Miteer Family applied this method to all their decent-leveled auction houses. And a youth named "Baek Ain." invented this method."

"Of course, using lousy transportation such as a bike or carriage wouldn't be viable, so we hired strong people with flying magical beasts. It's faster and safer because not many people can ambush it."

"The Black Seal Auction House guaranteed one to two days delivery within Black-Corner Region."

"And that's how we increased our sales to 400% in just a few months." The escort smiled somewhat proudly, leaving Baek Ain and Yafei in an awkward spot.

She didn't realize the people she talked about were the lady from the Miteer Family and the person who invented the delivery system. Well, they are in disguise, so it's understandable.

With a deep voice, Baek Ain glanced at the escort and commented, "Let's discuss the contract when meeting the manager. As for that 100 million gold coins, I only bought a few things that caught my interest."

"I see..." The escort nodded and didn't talk further.

Baek Ain smiled under his face mask because he bought something given as a quest reward in the past. A bluish-black rock swirled around Baek Ain's left palm.

[Temporal Meteorite]

A Temporal Meteorite is an unknown stone from possibly outer space, absorbing the surrounding energy to become heavier and heavier with each infusion.

Baek Ain used a massive chunk of this meteorite to create four bracelets to aid his training. Fun fact, he's still wearing it today and increased the weight to one ton each totaling 4 tons of weight pressuring his body.

Even though not much, Baek Ain could get a small chunk of the Temporal Meteorite from the side markets of Black Seal Auction House. Fortunately, these people don't know the value of the Temporal Meteorite.

After walking for a few more minutes, Baek Ain and Yafei arrived at the VVIP room and saw a well-dressed man waiting for them. He's decently tall and has a flaunting mustache, giving off a slick businessman feel.

The manager smiled and bowed politely, "Welcome to our humble Black Seal Auction House, esteemed guest."

"It's rare to see someone like you visit our company."

"May I know the intent of your visit?"

Baek Ain waved his hand and answered, "I heard there would be an auction today."

The manager chuckled and returned, "We have an auction every four hours, esteemed guests."

"However, you are lucky because there will be a series of interesting items at the next auction, around fifteen minutes."

Baek Ain sat on the sofa and said, "Then we have enough time to discuss a new contract between Beast Taming Gate and Black Seal Auction House."

The manager sat down casually and responded, "Indeed."

...

...

Fifteen minutes later.

The manager smiled awkwardly and released cold sweat because he couldn't trick Bai Ya. He tried to pull some strings when negotiating to make Black Seal Auction House gain more profits, but Bai Ya saw them effortlessly.

[Cinder's Eyes]

[You can tell good from evil, truth from lies]

Baek Ain handed a piece of paper to the manager and said, "Then, the deal is "mutually." sealed. Beast Taming Gate will take medicinal herbs and other materials listed in this paper for the next three years. The payment will get handled by my beautiful partner here."

"You can discuss business-related things with her in the future."

"Very well." The manager sighed in defeat. "It's a pleasure to have business with you, esteemed sir."

The manager bowed and gave Yafei a nod, telling her he would visit the Beast Taming Gate soon to finalize the payment. After that, he left them alone in the VVIP room.

Yafei slumped onto the sofa and pouted, "When did you learn business, Bai Ya?"

Baek Ain smirked and replied, "Well, I read some books in your office."

He was "actually." tempted to tell Yafei about his previous life, but he couldn't do it because there was more danger than good if that happened.

"Hmm..." Yafei suspiciously stared at him.

"Ladies and Gentlemen! Welcome to the Daily Auction of Black Seal Company!" A voice suddenly echoed.

Baek Ain and Yafei moved their gazes to a one-way glass window and saw the manager standing on the podium. He wore a new set of suits, smiling at everyone politely.

"Well, just say what you want. I'll buy it for you." Baek Ain confidently said. "Of course, there is another gift later."

"Just enjoy the auction."

"Don't regret it, hehe~!" Yafei responded while excitedly staring out the window.
