Imitating her daughter, the woman also used the same words and said, "Bye Jian Shen, bye aunties."Quickly covering his mouth so that he wouldn"t laugh, Jian Shen turned around to see all of the women with ugly expressions on their faces.

"Aunty?"
"Even the mother called me, aunty?"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
"I"m sure they didn"t have any bad intention when saying those words. It should be due to how young I a... "
Realizing how bad it would be for him if he finished those words, Jian Shen stopped himself and said, "Let"s just go inside aunties."
...
After that one incident, the women no longer tried to stop Jian Shen if he ever wanted to go out on a walk. Like that, the date for the auction had finally arrived bringing forth a wave of excitement through the women.
Spending almost half a day since early morning to get ready, all of the women planned to show off their best appearance to Jian Shen.
After all, it wasn"t every day that they found a reason to dress up and improve their impression in Jian Shen"s eyes.
It was during that time that Jian Shen was thinking about what they would"ve done if the auction was set to start in the morning, instead of the afternoon.
Would they have spent the entire night getting ready?
Shaking his head, Jian Shen in the end felt that the time the women spent getting ready was completely worth it due to how beautiful each of them looked when they were done.
Think of the women themselves ad tasty sweets. No matter how good they look on their own and how delicious they taste, no one would reject some special garnis.h.i.+ng which would make them look better and taste better, right?
That was the same case with the women.
Even though they looked beautiful the whole time, they looked even more dazzling and breathtaking after spending so long to get ready.
Looking at all of the women that lined up in front of him after they finished getting ready, Jian Shen could only use one word to describe them.
"Wow."
And that one word was enough to make them all feel that the time they spent to get ready was completely worth it.
Coming near Jian Shen and pointing towards his attire which was the same white robes he always wore, Meilin asked, "Aren"t you going to change?"
"Change? Why?"
"Well... You do look good in white, but wearing more extravagant clothes would definitely make you look even better."
Shaking his head, Jian Shen said, "I"m fine with this."
Rolling her eyes and stepping even closer, while acting as if she was straightening Jian Shen"s clothes and removing the wrinkles and dust on them, Meilin whispered, "Is the current me making you want to marry me, instead of my daughter?"
Only smiling and not giving an answer, Jian Shen himself stepped away from Meilin when she suddenly said, "The carriage is here already, so let"s go."
"Don"t try and stop them, husband."
Speaking quickly before Jian Shen asked something like why bother with a carriage when they could all fly, Juew.a.n.g explained the importance of a carriage to the women.
"We women can only show off how graceful and elegant we look when stepping out of a carriage, and not by flying."
Since Juew.a.n.g went so far to explain the motive of the women wanting to travel through a carriage, Jian Shen didn"t say anything like he"d fly behind them and got inside the carriage as well.
Like this, Jian Shen, Wuying, Xiulan, Yu Yan, Suyin, Xinyi, Meilin, and Zheng Niu set off for the Auction of Five Centuries.
...
While she still wasn"t speaking to Jian Shen because she didn"t know what to actually say, Xinyi chose to tag along with him because this would be her first time at the Sword Island as well.
Looking out of the window because looking towards the women only served to make him excited, Jian Shen soon saw the road leading into a wide s.p.a.ce with a huge circle shaped white building at the centre of it all.
With a silver-coloured dome on top of the circular building, Jian Shen quickly saw that the building, which was most likely the auction hall which was hosting the Auction of Five Centuries.
Even though he could only see a little bit about how the rooms looked through the windows, Jian Shen could notice the obvious increase in quality of the objects inside the room.
But once he reached the higher floors, Jian Shen could no longer see what was on the other side of the windows.
Thinking that this was most likely due to the mirrors being special and only allowing those on that side to look outside, Jian Shen saw that the wide s.p.a.ce they entered was soon split into multiple paths.
Though all of the paths led to the same auction hall, each one was different from the others.
This was when Meilin explained how each of the paths was for those group of a specific status. And only those with a high enough invitation could enter the paths which directly led to the higher floors.
With the carriage entering the path at the leftmost end, the group soon got off after it stopped at the end of the path from where a red carpet covered everything they walked on.
Walking ahead, the group soon reached the auction hall"s entrance where a woman with multiple guards guarding the entrance waited for them.
Showing hey entrance, Meilin was about to leave with the group when the woman that checked their ticket suddenly said, "Wait a second handsome boy, what do you think about getting a free upgrade to the top floor?"
