Chapter 2038 - Captured

Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

Echo Water City was located on the long boundary line between the Ghost Realm and Soul Region. A prosperous city that was close to the Triangle District

In the past, underground auction houses were mostly selected in small and medium-sized cities, and there were relatively few prosperous cities like this that were chosen.

When Sima You Yue and the others came here, no one noticed them. After all, with the streams of people coming in daily, they were not very eye-catching.

Because they didn’t have a clue, they went to find an inn to live in. Fortunately, there were so many inns here, so they could still find an inn with vacant rooms.

“It seems that many people know that this underground auction will be held in Echo Water City.” They walked along and heard people talking about this several times.

“It will not be too difficult to find out more then.” Wu Lingyu stood by her side as they peered outside the window, watching the bustling crowd below.

“The underground auctions have grown bigger and bigger over the years.” Hai Xing said.

If this were not the case, how could they dare to attack Sima You Yue!

“I am a little curious about the manipulator behind the scenes.” Sima You Yue said, “Lingyu, say, if I get caught, will I get to see who is behind it all?”

“What do you want to do again?” He asked with a wry smile.

Sima You Yue smiled at him: “Haven’t you already guessed it?”

“Are you going to run wild again?” Wu Lingyu frowned, not wanting her to take risks.

“I want to know if their Little Aunt is in this auction, but I can’t wait until the auction.” Sima You Yue said, “You can only find out if you go deep into the enemy camp.”

“I think it’s more that you want to play!” Fu Xi immediately revealed her excuse.

“The purpose is the same anyway.” Sima You Yue didn’t deny it either. In fact, she didn’t want to play, but just wanted to get to the people behind.

“Master, let my sister and I go.” Hai Xi said, “Anyway, they wanted to catch us before.”

“If you two went, it is estimated that you will be auctioned directly.” Although Fu Xi’s words were poisonous, they were true.

“Fu Xi is right. If you are caught and if we can’t find you, you would have to be auctioned again.” Sima You Yue said with a smile, “However, you really need to use your identity.”

“Hmm?”

Hai Xing and Hai Xi were thrown into the Spirit Pagoda by her. She was going to merge with Thousand Resonance and transform into the appearance of a Hai Xing and Mi Er into the appearance of Hai Xi.

Wu Lingyu couldn’t stop her, so he had to let her go.

“You go and pretend to be caught, then I will get an invitation letter. If you are auctioned, then I will buy you, so that you are rightfully mine.” Wu Lingyu said.

“Alright!” Sima You Yue smiled, “Then you have to prepare more money.”

Wu Lingyu was moved by her smile, and really wanted to taste her beauty. There was a huge light bulb with big eyes beside him, so he had to suppress the thought.

“I’ll go look for the invitation letter.” He turned away with a calm face. When he walked to the door, he saw that Fu Xi didn’t mean to follow. His face was even darker and he said, “Need me to invite you?”

“I...” Fu Xi wanted to say that he was going to be with Sima You Yue, but when he saw Wu Lingyu’s expression, he had to think twice about it. This man was now eager and jealous, so it was best not to mess with him!

Wu Lingyu took Fu Xi away, Sima You Yue and Thousand Resonance merged into Hai Xing, and then called Mi Er to turn into Hai Xi’s appearance.

“Every time you ask me to come out and let me do such a thing, you are lowering my style!” Mi Er was very dissatisfied, how could he always do such things!

“Do you want to do something else? Would you like to play with Blacky?” Sima You Yue said with a smile.

“Hmm, what are we going to do? Hurry up, hurry up!”

Sima You Yue: “...”

The two went to the street without doing anything. They wandered on the street until late at night, and then they were caught in a small alley.

The two resisted to match their roles and were taken to a dim and dark house. The two were tied up, and it took a while before they heard someone talking outside the door.

“Are you sure they are the brother and sister of the Hai Clan?”

“It has been compared with the portrait Mo Wei sent before, and I am sure it is them.”

“Why did they appear here?”

“The people we sent are dead, so they should know that Hai Mian is with us. They were inquiring about the news everywhere on the street today so they must be trying to save Hai Mian.”

“How many of them are there? Was Sima You Yue there?”

“No,there were only the two of them, and no one else.”

“There were only two of them? Will they be fake? Send someone to investigate and see if Sima You Yue was also there.”

“A mere Young Princess from the Ghost Realm, do you need to be so vigilant? Even if she does come, can it affect the auction?”

“What do you know, this Sima You Yue is very peculiar, it’s better to be careful!”

“The Ghost King is already dead, what’s more, she is just a Young Princess, what kind of waves can she stir up?”

“Just be careful!”

“It’s better to err in caution, we can’t just because...”

“Fine, everything you said is right, you should go and check if Sima You Yue is here as well, our Chief Steward is not at ease.”

“Yes!”

“Alright, let’s go in and see the two people of the Hai Clan.”

Sima You Yue sighed in her heart that these people were really cautious, no wonder no one has found out about them for so long.

The door was opened, and light streamed in from outside. Three people walked in from the outside, it should be the same three who were talking outside the door just now.

“Chief Steward, this is the portrait sent by Mo Wei.” A steward handed two paintings to a middle aged man.

The Chief Steward looked at the portrait and then at the two tied up, and said, “It is indeed them. Better get someone to watch them properly, the price will be very good for those of the Hai Clan who have already awakened their bloodline!”

“Chief Steward, don’t worry, they are still asleep, they won’t wake up until the auction!” The steward assured.

“These two people and after adding in Hai Mian, we can make a lot of money this time.” The young man in the middle said with a glint in his eyes.

“Young Master, Hai Mian is not on the list of this auction.” The steward said.

“Isn’t there? Didn’t you say that she had already arrived?”

“Something happened in between and she has been bought already.” The Chief Steward said.

“Who bought her? Why did you sell her without being auctioned?”

“Don’t ask, the price offered by the other party can definitely be higher than the price at the auction!”

“Oh well, that’s good then.”

“The news was released before, but fortunately, now there are two of them to fill in the gap.” The Young Master said, “Now that there are two more days before the auction,it’s better to let me play and see if the effect is really that good. If it is really that effective, then leave her for me. Anyway, what we are talking about is selling someone from the Hai Clan.”

“Please, you can play all you want, just make sure she still has a breath!” The Chief Steward said.

“Go, send this woman to my room....”
