Strongest Medical Saint-Chapter 180 Unfathomable
Ji’s Auction House was located in a district to the south of Hong Kong Island that was not particularly bustling.
It was said that initially, a very famous Feng Shui master helped the Ji Family choose the construction site, and indeed, the Ji Family began to prosper starting with this auction house.
This was also why Ji’s Auction House had not relocated to another place over the years.
Upon arriving at Ji’s Auction House, one could see a great number of people coming in and out, with some covering their faces with masks. The surrounding people did not find this odd.
In this world, there were not a few ordinary people who, by fortuitous chance, acquired treasures and wished to entrust Ji’s Auction House to auction them off, preferring to keep their identities hidden with masks.
The security guards patrolled around Ji’s Auction House in abundance, each with sharp gazes and clothing that could not conceal their explosive muscles.
Those with masked faces who walked out of Ji’s Auction House already had the auction house’s private cars waiting for them outside.
The cars from Ji’s Auction House would safely transport them away from the location to avoid being followed by those with ulterior motives.
It could be said that the service of Ji’s Auction House was absolutely top-notch, especially towards those guests who had come to consign items for auction.
Shen Feng looked up at Ji’s Auction House before him. Find adventures on novelbuddy
The entire Ji’s Auction House was a high-rise building with as many as twenty-five floors.
Shen Feng walked into a nearby alley and took out a grey mask he had brought with him.
He had come to Hong Kong Island solely to see whether the item being auctioned was truly the Medicine Cauldron. If it were, then he would bid for it at all costs.
He did not wish to be constantly bothered by the incessant buzzing of annoying flies, and besides, he looked too young, which would inevitably lead to skepticism. Unwilling to waste words, he had prepared a mask before coming to Hong Kong Island to conceal his appearance if necessary.
His cultivation was too low now, or else he could change his appearance at will.
As for disguising himself, Shen Feng found it too troublesome. After securing the Medicine Cauldron, he planned to leave, so a mask would suffice for the time being.
After donning the grey mask, Shen Feng walked out from the alley.
He entered Ji’s Auction House without any hindrance.
Wang Anxiong had never actually been here, only knowing a bit about Ji’s Auction House, which is why his previous description was vague.
After walking into the auction house, just beyond the entrance, there was a rack with several brochures on it.
These brochures introduced Ji’s Auction House.
Shen Feng casually picked one up to read and quickly understood the gist of it.
Indeed, one needed to be a member to enter Ji’s Auction House, but this place was not the true Ji’s Auction House.
Looking around this floor, one could see it was filled with store-like shops, and many who entered browsed and shopped within them.
According to the brochure,
These shops were opened here by others, naturally selling antiques and many other strange and rare items, each paying Ji’s Auction House a hefty annual rent.
Every item sold in the shops here had been authenticated by Ji’s Auction House appraisers, making it impossible for fakes to be sold here.
Although it meant there were no deceits even towards children and the elderly, the auction house appraisers only authenticated the genuineness, not the price tags set by shop owners, which were determined at their discretion.
Because one couldn’t purchase fakes here, the number of people coming was substantial; moreover, there was no threshold for entry.
The true Ji’s Auction House was on the top floor, and reaching the top floor required a membership card.
"Excuse me, sir, may I help you with anything? Would you like to consign any items for auction at our auction house?" A woman dressed in business attire approached with a smile.
Generally speaking, only those who lacked backing and feared being targeted would conceal their appearance, and such individuals typically came to entrust the auction house with selling their items.
Shen Feng shook his head and said succinctly, "I want to register as a member of your auction house."
The woman in business attire was momentarily stunned. Membership cards for Ji’s Auction House were not something just anyone could obtain. Besides, due to an upcoming grand auction event, they had temporarily ceased registering new members; the number of people confirmed to attend the auction had already grown quite sizable.
Though the woman didn’t believe that Shen Feng had the means to become a member of the auction house, she still spoke politely, "I’m sorry, sir, our auction house is not registering new members for the next few days. Please come back later."
The staff of Ji’s Auction House had exemplary professionalism, leaving no room for criticism.
After frowning slightly, Shen Feng walked towards the exit of the building.
Just as he stepped out the door.
A convoy drove up to the entrance.
Four Humvees surrounded an extended Rolls-Royce from front to back and side to side.
The Humvees were evidently there to escort the Rolls-Royce. One after another, well-trained security personnel disembarked and scanned the surroundings before signaling to someone inside the Rolls-Royce.
An elderly man in his sixties got out of the Rolls-Royce and respectfully opened the rear car door.
First, a pair of slender legs entered everyone’s line of sight, followed by a woman in a black evening gown stepping out of the car.
This woman exuded an icy aloofness that kept people at bay; wherever her gaze fell, all the men inevitably bowed their heads.
The femme fatale Ji Yunhan was not famed without reason.
Ji Yunhan’s appearance was beautiful, but her face was eternally cold. One couldn’t see any superfluous expressions on her face. She had come here directly after attending an event, hence she hadn’t even changed out of her clothes.
"Eldest Miss, shall we go inside?" The elder man, known as Uncle Zhong, had been by Ji Yunhan’s side ever since Old Master Ji fell ill.
Uncle Zhong suddenly moved to protect Ji Yunhan behind him, his piercing gaze fixed on Shen Feng, "You, wait a moment."
His instincts told him that this masked man posed a certain danger.
Shen Feng paused in his stride; this old man piqued his interest, albeit slightly.
After the pause, he continued walking forward.
Seeing the other party ignore him, Uncle Zhong instantly transformed, bursting forth with a terrifying aura.
He didn’t at all resemble a man in his sixties. His figure shot towards Shen Feng like a tiger pouncing on its prey.
Shen Feng paused again. This old man’s strength was actually equivalent to that of a cultivator at the Acquired State.
But the Acquired State was much too weak.

With a casual wave of his hand, Shen Feng unleashed spiritual energy. Uncle Zhong, who was originally pouncing forward, felt as if he had been struck by a heavy object.
"Bang!"
His body flew backward and slammed into the Rolls-Royce, a trickle of fresh blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. A look of horror appeared in his eyes; the strength of this masked man was unfathomably deep!
