Chapter 364: 364: Capital Verification

So, the three of them did not reject Jiang Xiaobai’s goodwill either. They nodded in agreement, displaying their sincerity in turn.

“But Void Prince, today is a significant day. Why don’t we go to the auction site first to see what’s going on?”

Qiu Zixuan suddenly chuckled, “I heard that not just anyone can attend this auction. They even assess your wealth before giving you a chair.”

While it seemed that she was kindly reminding him, Jiang Xiaobai understood that this woman’s intentions were not so simple and that she was subtly probing him.

After all, in such scenarios, it’s difficult to determine who is causing a disturbance.

However, he needed just this kind of test.

“The fish is getting closer to the hook,” he thought to himself, feigning surprise on his face, “Ah? They need to look at my assets? I might not have brought enough money this time because I was in a hurry. Are there any prerequisites?”

“We’re not quite sure either, shall we go in together to find out?”

Liang Cheng said lightly, a mocking smile flashing in his eyes as if he had seen through Jiang Xiaobai’s identity.

Not only that, but they caught each other’s eye upon hearing this news, all amused by the situation.

Perhaps some stray cat or dog was trying to sneak in if they didn’t know this information that everyone was aware of.

It would be suitable to expose them on the spot once we get inside.

Trying to fool the ancient families would come at a massive cost.

With this thought, the three had a knowing smile. Understanding each other’s intentions, they escorted Jiang Xiaobai into the auction hall.

Jiang Xiaobai was unused to such a commotion and struggled to free himself from their grasp.

“Cough, please stop tugging at me like this. I’ve been frail since I was a kid, and I can’t bump into ladies…” Jiang Xiaobai said, his face slightly flushed, and he didn’t dare to look at Qiu Zixuan.

To the three of them, it appeared as if he was chickening out!

How could they let Jiang Xiaobai off the hook so easily? It was an added bonus to see some exciting drama while they were here anyway.

In this way, rather than leaving Jiang Xiaobai alone, Qiu Zixuan tried to get even closer to him, unintentionally or intentionally, giving them immense pleasure in causing discomfort to Jiang Xiaobai.

Soon, the group arrived at a counter. Behind it sat an old man whose radiant white hair and youthful face exuded a faint aura of the Unity Period power.

“We want to participate in today’s auction. This is the entry fee. Please take a look.”

Shen Haoyu was the first to speak, while presenting the old man with a storage ring.

The old man took the storage ring, scanned it briefly, nodded, and passed a token to Shen Haoyu.

After receiving the token, Shen Haoyu glanced at Jiang Xiaobai with a mocking look in his eyes.

At the same time, the three subtly enclosed Jiang Xiaobai within their circle, giving him no opportunity to escape.

Jiang Xiaobai, appearing oblivious to his situation, asked in a flustered tone.

“Um, what’s the entry fee?”

Upon hearing his question, the three thought, ‘Just as we expected,’ but none of them answered him. The old man, too, remained silent and just gave Jiang Xiaobai a disdainful look, a cold smile playing on his lips.

Meanwhile, Qiu Zixuan had already completed the asset verification, followed by Liang Cheng.

Upon completion of their asset verifications, all three turned their eyes to Jiang Xiaobai.

Jiang Xiaobai still appeared helpless and flustered, “Um, could you tell me what it is? I’m worried I didn’t bring enough money, and it would be embarrassing.”

“Don’t worry, Void Prince. The entry fee isn’t high. Given your status, you should easily pass.”

Leaning against the counter, very close to Jiang Xiaobai, Qiu Zixuan continued to tease him by blowing on his neck.

In his mind, Jiang Xiaobai scolded her silently for being a flirt, but on the surface, he looked somewhat embarrassed, “Is it really low?”

“Low? Uh, it should not be high.” Liang Cheng said in surprise.

At this point, the old man behind the counter turned impatient, “Boy, hurry up and give me your storage ring. If you don’t want to verify your assets, just bugger off and stop wasting my time.”

“But I warn you, it’s the ancient families’ auction. If you dare to fool around here, consider the consequences.”

The old man’s expression was unpleasant, and his eyes were full of mockery.

Qiu Zixuan and her companions had the same sneering expressions as they all waited for Jiang Xiaobai to make a fool of himself.

Seeing their expressions, Jiang Xiaobai smirked internally but reluctantly handed over a storage ring.

The old man huffed, rather impatiently took the storage ring, scanned it with his divine consciousness, and then all of a sudden, he froze in his seat.

Qiu Zixuan and her companions also furrowed their brows, unsure of what was going on.

“Well, I came out in a rush this time, and I didn’t know that this place needs to check assets. If the money is not enough, it’s okay. I’ll contact home now to send money over. I think I can get it in time!” Jiang Xiaobai said in panic as he observed the old man’s reaction.

But to Qiu Zixuan and the others, this spelled panic.

“Ha ha, don’t you have enough money at all and pretentiously come here to bluff your way into the auction?”

At this point, before Qiu Zixuan and the others could speak, a young woman from behind sneered and pushed her way past them to the counter. She produced a storage ring and gave Jiang Xiaobai a derisive glance.

“I’ve seen many people like you who want to sneak in here to broaden their horizons. Useless, only good at opportunism. You would be better off spending your time improving your strength.”

“Hurry up and leave. Don’t embarrass yourself here. Once the ancient families’ members catch you, you may lose your life.”

Seeing this woman, the faces of Qiu Zixuan and her companions turned to shock.

They recognized her identity at once.

She was Su Lan from the Su family, the second-tier top family in the Northern State!

Their hearts trembled, and they slowly started to retreat, avoiding any connection with Jiang Xiaobai.

If they offended Su Lan from the Su Family, it would be a disaster for their family and their backers.

Other than the ancient families and the Mu Family, the Su Family didn’t consider any other power significant!

After all, the Su family’s backing was mighty.

Just when they thought Su Lan’s sudden appearance was shocking enough, Gu Leng suddenly appeared, wearing a faint smile on his face.

“What’s going on here?”
