Sensational! Fake Noble VS Real Genius

Seeing this, the others all quickly picked their partners, learning from Gu Zhiqi: some held hands, some linked arms.

The ones linking arms were naturally Gu Xiyue and Qiao Qingshu.

The ones holding hands were Mo Weiran and Lu Xingzhe. Lu Xingzhe was extremely disgusted by this. "We’re two grown men, why the hell are we holding hands?"

"Don’t let go of me, you can’t lose me."

"When I was a kid, I used to get separated from my parents all the time."

"If I get separated later, just think, a useless little piece of trash like me who can’t even truss a chicken, how scared I’d be."

Lu Xingzhe: "..."

Have you forgotten you’re a Ninth-order ancient martial artist or what?

"No hand-holding. At most, you can hold onto my sleeve." Lu Xingzhe pulled his hand back, face dark.

Seeing this, Mo Weiran aggrievedly latched onto Lu Xingzhe’s sleeve.

"You all have partners? What about me?"

"No way, I want to hold hands too." As Tang Yichen spoke, he stretched his hand out toward Su Yunling. "Third Brother, I’m holding hands with you."

Su Yunling shot him a look, telling him to figure it out himself.

Tang Yichen: "If you won’t let me hold yours, I’ll go hold Gu Xiaoxi’s."

Su Yunling: "..."

Gu Zhiqi refused outright. "No. My other hand has to hold the lantern."

Hearing this, Su Yunling lifted the lantern in his hand toward Tang Yichen, indicating he also needed to hold a lantern.

Just then, Mo Weiran spoke up. "Fourth Master, come over here with us. You can hold my other hand! I can put the lantern away."

Mo Weiran expressed that holding onto two people at once doubled his sense of security.

Tang Yichen: "...I prefer walking by myself."

With that, he quietly moved away from Mo Weiran.

This guy, a dignified Ninth-order ancient martial artist, yet he had zero self-awareness and acted weak and frail every single day.

He suspected this guy was actually bent.

Tang Yichen, as a straight man, claimed he was scared.

Unaware of what was going through Tang Yichen’s head, Mo Weiran was a bit disappointed when he saw Tang Yichen turn him down.

Gu Zhiqi said to everyone, "There’s a voice changer on the cloak. When you talk to other people, remember to turn it on."

In Nine Stars City, there were plenty of capable people, and more than enough who could identify others by voice alone. To avoid being targeted, it was best to turn on the voice changer as well.

Hearing this, everyone fumbled around and switched on their voice changers.

Then Gu Zhiqi led everyone out. As they walked forward, she introduced them to Black Star’s Heavenly Domain Pavilion.

Black Star’s Heavenly Domain Pavilion was the only place in Nine Stars City where you didn’t have to trade face-to-face.

Black Star Heaven’s Domain Pavilion had a total of three floors.

The first floor was an open trading area for everyone. As long as you found a spot, you could set up a stall and buy or sell whatever you wanted.

At the very center of the first floor was an auction area, which was the official auction venue of the Heavenly Domain Pavilion.

If you wanted to auction something, you could hand it over to the Heavenly Domain Pavilion and let their officials auction it for you.

Transactions on the first floor were mostly aimless. If you saw something you wanted, you bought it; if you suddenly felt like selling something, you just found a spot and set up a stall.

The second floor was for goal-oriented trading, organized by the Heavenly Domain Pavilion officials.

For this type, those auctioning items were mostly looking to trade one item for another.

And the buyers were basically all after extremely rare items and would have the officials help them search.

If someone suddenly wanted to buy a certain item and the Heavenly Domain Pavilion happened to have it in stock, they’d arrange it immediately. If not, they would help the customer look for it, and once they found it, they’d notify the customer to come buy it.

The same went for those selling items.

Last was the third floor.

The third floor hosted auctions organized by the Heavenly Domain Pavilion, mainly for rare treasures. They weren’t held every day, but whenever there was an auction, every single item would be a precious find.
