Chapter 391
The next day, after breakfast, Luna applied some simple makeup and set off with Andrius to Astral Auction House.
There were still more than ten minutes before the auction.
Astral Auction House was quite large. The hall was about a thousand square meters in size, with a central podium and immeasurable seats scattered around, arranged in a stepped manner toward the back.
Thus, the people could see the podium clearly from any seat.
There was also a circle of private rooms around the hall on the second floor. The private rooms overlooked the place from above and could take in the entire auction hall.
At that moment, the private rooms were already full, and about 70-80% of the hall was occupied.
This was just a regular auction, and the most valuable item was the wild ginseng at the finale, so there were still some empty seats. No entry tickets were required either.
The list posted at the door detailed the auction items for today. Luna was checking if there was any ginseng and did not notice a young man walking over.
Bam!
The next second, their shoulders bumped.
“You little…”
The young man’s name was Jace Harris. He had quite the background.
He was instantly furious and was just about to go on a tirade, but when he realized that the person who bumped into him was a stunning beauty, his eyes immediately turned mischievous, harboring malicious
intentions.
“Hey, babe.” Jace stared at Luna and said with a smile, “Bumping into someone is a kind of fate. How about we have a meal together tonight, and I’ll let this matter pass?”
Luna’s expression darkened, and she said calmly, “I apologize for bumping into you, but… There’s no need to have a meal together.”
Seeing Luna’s displeasure, a sinister look flashed on Jace’s face. He said insidiously, “Well, you don’t
have a choice.”
After he spoke, he reached out toward Luna’s hand.
Several of his followers behind him immediately blocked her path.
Smack!
Just then, a figure appeared in front of Luna. With a wave of his hand, a resounding slap landed on Jace’s face without mercy.
it was Andrius.
Jace was sent falling backward, and he collided with his followers behind him. When he stood firm, his face was already swollen with a red handprint. It was a shocking sight.
“F*ck!” Jace immediately became furious and shouted, “How dare you hit me? Boys, beat him to death!”
As soon as he finished speaking, his followers stepped forward.
Crack, crack, crack!
Clack, clack, clack!
Some cracked their heads and grinned while some rubbed their fists, and some bared their teeth in a
snarl.
Bam!
Andrius did not bother wasting his breath. He kicked the person in front of him, sending him flying.
That strength was so great that the person flew back and crashed into the people behind him, causing them all to fall down in a large heap.
Andrius swiftly knocked down the few that were left in just a few moves.
In just a moment, everyone was lying on the ground, groaning and moaning, resembling dying pigs.
Luna was speechless and exasperated. Just last night, she had told Andrius not to easily resort to violence, but now…
Although it was Jace who caused trouble, Andrius was too temperamental.
“Let’s go.
Andrius did not think much of it. After he beat them up, he pulled Luna into the auction hall.
“Damn it!” Jace looked at Andrius‘ back and cursed bitterly. Then, he led the group of people and entered the VIP path to the side. He wanted his master to take action and teach Andrius a lesson.
Otherwise, he could not accept this atrocious act.
On the second floor, in the first private room, an old man dressed in blue was meditating with his eyes
closed.
Beside him, several middle–aged men dressed in luxurious attire stood there, not daring to disturb him. They were holding gifts in their hands.
The old man’s name was Stephan Hoffman, a renowned master in the capital. These people were here to flatter him.
“Master!”
Just then, the door was pushed open. Jace came in with an expression full of grievance and went straight to Stephen.
Swoosh…
Stephen slowly opened his eyes like a light suddenly flashing in the night.
“Who did this?” Stephen immediately became furious when he saw the handprint on Jace’s face.
In the entire East River State, who dared to lay a hand on his disciple? Was that person tired of living?
“Master, you have to help me!” Jace immediately exaggerated the whole incident and described how vicious and ruthless Andrius was, and how he disrespected him.
“That’s absurd!”
The more Stephen listened, the angrier he became, and the expression on his old face became dark.
However, the auction was about to begin.
His purpose for this trip was the item in the finale, the wild king ginseng. It would not be wise to get

involved in unnecessary conflicts.
Stephen suppressed his anger, appeased Jace, and said, “Don’t be impatient, my disciple. Since that person has entered the auction house, he won’t be able to escape. Wait till I get the wild king ginseng and the auction ends. I’ll help you deal with him.”
Although Jace was unwilling, he had no choice but to agree.
“Ladies and gentlemen…”
Just then, a curtain of light enveloped the stage, and a beautiful host in a dress gracefully stepped forward.
