Master, don't tease me, you can't handle three of them.

Chapter 115 is very important, extremely important.

The person kneeling on the ground quickly got up and followed the man into the courtyard, where the gate closed again.

After the man sat down in the main hall, Tianxun knelt on one knee and said respectfully, "Your Highness, Tianyang and the others have arrived in Guizhou. The people from the Imperial Court have not found anything unusual. They will arrive in the capital in three days."

Prince Yi did not speak, but tapped his fingers lightly on the table. Soon, servants from the mansion brought hot tea and then quietly withdrew.

Prince Yi removed the demon mask. Upon seeing this, Tianxun stood up, took out a wooden box from his robes, and placed it on the table.

Inside the wooden box was a new mask. Unlike the demon mask, this mask was like a fine work of art, with silver as the main color and red spider lilies outlined on it. The red color was extremely vivid, as if it had been soaked in blood.

Prince Yi took out a mask from the wooden box, placed it on his face, and moved it around a couple of times until the mask fit perfectly on his face.

After finishing, Prince Yi picked up his hot tea, took a couple of sips, and said, "Go and find out some news from the capital."

"Yes." Tianxun respectfully withdrew.

After everyone left, Prince Yi stood up, suddenly stretched out a big yawn, and his eyes under the mask gradually became clear.

"Is this the capital? It's really bustling!"

Prince Yi muttered to himself, his tone filled with curiosity and excitement. The next second, Prince Yi's voice became steady again.

"Yes, it's much more prosperous than the territory and the cities we've conquered."

"How about we attack the capital directly and turn the whole world into our own territory!" Prince Yi's voice turned frenzied again, his eyes filled with bloodlust.

"I have no interest," Prince Yi said calmly. He had no interest in any of these things.

From the time he could remember, he had been searching for something, something he had forgotten, something very important, extremely important, even more important than his life.

But he forgot exactly what it was; it might not have been a thing, perhaps it was a person.

He searched for a long time, scouring every place he lived, but still couldn't find it. It wasn't in any of the seven cities either. Perhaps, what he was looking for wasn't even here...

"Yes! Let's go out and explore the capital city more!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Prince Yi vanished from his spot, leaving the mansion without anyone noticing.

But as soon as he stepped out of the courtyard, Prince Yi paused slightly, regained his calm and composed demeanor, and walked slowly toward the city gate.

"What are you going there for?" Prince Yi muttered to himself.

"Since we're going to get to know each other, let's start at the city gate," Prince Yi said calmly.

"Oh, okay!" Perfect. Let's see if there's anything in the capital that I've been looking for. I'll take a look around the capital in the next couple of days, and then go to the palace to search.

If we can't find it, then we'll look elsewhere. Actually, it seems like taking over the dynasty wouldn't be a bad idea. Wouldn't that make it easier for him to search?

Forget it. After taking over the dynasty, governing so many places would be too troublesome. Those seven cities are already difficult enough to manage...

The pedestrians on the street had no idea that the masked man in black next to them almost disrupted their recently stabilized lives once again.

----------------

Two days later, at Tianxiang Tower.

More and more people flocked to Tianxiang Tower, all having heard that there would be a top-quality auction tonight, and that everyone, rich or poor, could catch a glimpse of this exceptional beauty.

Ji Chen's lips twitched violently as he looked at the clothes that Green Leaf had brought him.

Weren't the normal clothes you wore before good enough? Why did you have to wear such revealing clothes to seduce people?

Although Ji Chen resisted, he still put the clothes on. Although the clothes were still three layers inside and three layers outside, they were see-through!

Looking at the clothes he was wearing, which were worse than not wearing any clothes at all, Ji Chen patted his face with both hands.

It's okay! A grown man like me won't lose anything by being looked at a couple of times, and besides, my private parts are covered up, aren't they?

After comforting himself, Ji Chen walked out. A hint of amazement flashed in Green Leaf's eyes, but she still obeyed the madam's words and tied two silver chains around Ji Chen's ankles.

"Where are your shoes?" Ji Chen shook the chain on his foot. Good, he couldn't even take a step.

"I don't have shoes," Green Leaf answered truthfully.

Ji Chen: "......" They won't even let me wear shoes!

Afterwards, Green Leaf led Ji Chen to wait backstage with the others who were about to be auctioned. Ji Chen glanced at the bustling crowd downstairs and the people wearing various masks sitting leisurely in the rooms upstairs.

You can tell the difference between the rich and the poor at a glance.

He glanced at Ji Chen and then looked away, turning his gaze to the huge cage in the center of the stage. The cage was completely covered by a large red cloth, so no one could see what was inside.

Is this the person the emperor personally selected to be auctioned off? Ji Chen recalled the heavily guarded courtyard he had once seen; this must be the person imprisoned there.

To be honest, the world created by this artifact is different from the real world. What emperor would specifically sell people out of brothels?

When the time came, the madam went up to the stage and said to the crowd with a smile.

"Thank you all for coming! You've all heard that Tianxianglou is having an extremely lovely girl auction today, right?"

I won't keep you in suspense any longer; that's the person behind me! Everyone, wouldn't you like to see their face?

"Yes! Of course!"

"Madam, please stop! Isn't that why we came here? We wanted to see her for ourselves!"

"That's right! Quickly pull down that annoying red cloth so we can see what kind of beauty the madam is promoting as a top-tier woman!"

The people on the first floor were extremely enthusiastic, which amplified the atmosphere created by the madam.

"Then please take a look! Starting bid: eight hundred taels of gold!!!" the madam announced loudly.

As the madam finished speaking, the red cloth covering the cage was torn off, revealing the person inside.

Judging from his figure, he appeared to be a man. Unlike Ji Chen and the others, he wasn't dressed provocatively, but he was only wearing an undergarment, and his hands and feet were cuffed with heavy iron chains. His long hair reached his waist, and the strands of hair on his forehead barely covered his face.

Seemingly sensing the intense light, the man inside blinked slightly, looked up at the crowd, his eyes devoid of any emotion.

The man's movement allowed everyone to see his face clearly. He remained silent, his sharp features tinged with a faint indifference. His clear, cold eyes, hidden beneath long lashes, resembled glass immersed in ice and snow, rippling with shimmering light with just a blink.

After everyone saw the man's face clearly, they all fell silent.

Beautiful! Absolutely stunning!
