239th Break: Protection

Meanwhile, on another side of the House of Treasures of the Xiao family, Qiu Qi and Qiu Ru are guarding Qiu Shiliu while Qiu Ru listens to the movements outside by the window while Qiu Qi is listening by the door.

"Shiliu, it seems that the chaos is about to start." Qiu Qi spoke as she signaled Qiu Ru that there were some people approaching their way in the hallway while Qiu Ru signed to her that there were some people who were climbing the walls outside of the House of Treasures.

The peak of the auction is about to come and Xiao Hui is naturally focused on the bidding since the bidders are all very important people from all directions of the land. Or else, why would he waste time and effort to invite them here?

So, Xiao Hui has no time to pay attention to the security of the House of Treasures and just leaves it to his trusted guards since he is fully focused on the next item that is about to be taken out to bid.
