Chapter 828 -828: Shrine of Chinese Jade in the Western Regions (3rd Update)
The red-clad woman’s heart trembled, and she couldn’t help but ask, “May I know where the bracelet you are wearing on your wrist comes from, miss?”
An Yan was slightly startled, raised her hand to look, and couldn’t help laughing, “Are you talking about this? It was a gift from a friend.”
The red-clad woman took a deep breath, “May I dare to ask if this friend’s surname is Bai?”
An Yan nodded, “Yes! Is there a problem?”
Upon confirmation, the red-clad woman’s heart quivered, and she secretly rejoiced.
It was indeed so.
Lucky for her to have paid close attention, or else it could have been troublesome.
This red-clad woman was named Gan Jing, and the purple-clad young girl was her junior sect sister, named Shui Min; both were from Guiyi in the Western Regions, belonging to the Hua Yu Sect.
And the place where the auction guild was most powerful happened to be in Guiyi of the Western Regions as well.
If that were all, it wouldn’t be enough to make Gan Jing take such notice.
But their sect was different from the other sects.
The reason they were called Hua Yu Sect was that their Sect was known for producing Jade Seals and Jade Slips.
For a cultivator who specializes in talismans, a good Jade Seal could enhance their abilities significantly.
And the use of Jade Slips was even greater.
The transfer of Cultivation Techniques between sects and the recording of various deeds all required Jade Slips to complete.
It was because of this that Hua Yu Sect was so wealthy.
But also because of this, the auction guild was extremely important to Hua Yu Sect.
Because at least eighty percent of the Jade Seals and Jade Slips produced by Hua Yu Sect each year were bought by the auction guild.
It could be said that without the auction guild, the sect’s economy of Hua Yu Sect would collapse instantly.
Therefore, when Gan Jing heard An Yan say that she was friends with Bai Qing’er, her attitude changed dramatically in an instant.
“So you’re a friend of Bai from the auction guild. We have been quite impolite just now; I am truly, deeply sorry!”
As she spoke, Gan Jing pulled her junior Shui Min along to bow and apologize to Xue An and the others.
This attitude left Mu Ya with nothing to say.
An Yan blinked, somewhat baffled, but after all, she came from a noble family and could handle such small scenes with ease.
“Alright, stand up! Just be careful in the future.”
Gan Jing then straightened up.
At this moment, An Yan turned to leave.
Gan Jing hurriedly called after her, “Miss, please wait!”
“Hmm? Is there anything else?” An Yan asked indifferently.
Gan Jing’s face was full of sincerity as she said, “Since you are a friend of someone from the auction guild, you are also a distinguished guest of our Hua Yu Sect. If you don’t mind, please come aboard for a chat to express our apologies.”
An Yan frowned slightly; she didn’t know these people and naturally didn’t want to go.
“I don’t think that’s necessary,” she said.
“Miss, if the guild knew that we let a friend of theirs go just like that, they would definitely blame us. So please come aboard, even if just to have a cup of tea!”
An Yan looked uncertainly at Xue An.
Xue An nodded slightly.
An Yan then reluctantly agreed, “Alright then!”
And so they all boarded the grand ship of the Hua Yu Sect.
Only after boarding the ship could they appreciate the ship’s luxury and vastness.
The two young girls were looking around curiously, deeply interested in everything.
Meanwhile, Gan Jing ushered An Yan into the cabin.
And someone was ready to serve them fine tea.
Therefore, the atmosphere had become somewhat awkward.
However, from start to finish, whether it was Gan Jing or her junior sister Shui Min, they both ignored Xue An as if he were invisible.
