Hiss!
Within the Celestial Treasure Palace, the sound of sharp intakes of breath echoed everywhere.
All the cultivators' eyes were fixed on Ye Chen, as if looking at a madman.
"Mad, Ye Chen is truly mad. Can he really approach that Purple Gold High Platform?"
"Is he not afraid of angering that high-ranking figure?"
After quite a while, people finally exclaimed one after another, ready to watch the drama unfold.
"Hmph! To court disaster on your own accord. If this trash wants to die, we have no reason to stop him." Wang Tian sneered from the side, the corners of his mouth filled with thick mockery, ready to watch the show.
Even he did not expect Ye Chen to be foolish enough to do something as suicidal as this.
Whoosh!
At this moment, Ye Chen ignored everyone's gaze and walked toward the center of the Celestial Treasure Palace, toward that Purple Gold High Platform.
This Purple Gold High Platform was dozens of zhang high, towering above the thirty Golden Battle Platforms, like a crane among chickens.
It seemed as if the existence of those Golden High Platforms was merely to highlight its presence.
"Bold ant, you dare offend that high-ranking figure? No one can save you today." Steward Li suddenly roared angrily, his face twisted, and he quickly dashed toward Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was already within a hundred zhang of the Purple Gold High Platform.
For that high-ranking figure, this was an enormous provocation.
If Steward Li didn't step in to subdue this reckless trash Ye Chen, he might provoke the wrath of that high-ranking figure himself.
So, he couldn't afford to hesitate.
"Bold."
"Presumptuous."
"Ye Chen, just who gave you, an ant, such boldness?" At this moment, other Divine Cauldron Alliance experts in the Celestial Treasure Palace were also enraged by Ye Chen's actions, their faces darkened as they sternly reprimanded him.
Evidently, they all did not know Ye Chen possessed the Celestial Pill Pavilion's Purple Gold Member Card.
After all, the higher-ups of the Celestial Pill Pavilion dared not easily reveal Ye Chen's true identity.
If they angered Ye Chen, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Buzz!
Just as Steward Li was about to intercept Ye Chen, a brilliant purple divine light suddenly enveloped Ye Chen, causing him to disappear instantly.
"Heavens! What just happened? How did Ye Chen suddenly disappear?" All the cultivators exclaimed in astonishment, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"It's the Transmission Array of the Celestial Treasure Palace. It seems this trash has been captured by the high-ranking figures of the Divine Cauldron Alliance and the Celestial Pill Pavilion." Xiahou Dian couldn't help but sneer, his eyes filled with schadenfreude.
As far as he knew, the Celestial Treasure Palace was fortified with multiple arrays, chiefly to prevent items from being stolen during the auction.
Among these arrays, some were teleportation arrays.
However, only some elders of the Celestial Pill Pavilion and the Divine Cauldron Alliance had the authority to manipulate them.
Therefore, in Xiahou Dian's view, Ye Chen must have been transported away by these teleportation arrays.
After all, the higher-ups of the Celestial Pill Pavilion and the Divine Cauldron Alliance certainly would not allow a trash like Ye Chen to approach that Purple Gold VIP Room casually!
"It's over, Ye Chen is truly finished this time. He must have thoroughly infuriated the higher-ups of the Divine Cauldron Alliance and the Celestial Pill Pavilion, otherwise they would not have used the teleportation array to forcibly capture this trash!"
"Offending people from the Divine Cauldron Alliance and the Celestial Pill Pavilion never ends well for anyone, not even if Ye Chen is a true disciple of the Overlord Body Peak."
"Hmph! He courts disaster on his own. It's not worthy of sympathy." Many onlooking cultivators sneered.
They also believed Ye Chen had been forcibly captured by the higher-ups of the Divine Cauldron Alliance and the Celestial Pill Pavilion.
Without consent from that high-ranking figure, he rashly approached that Purple Gold High Platform.
For that high-ranking figure, this was outrageous disrespect.
So, even the high-ranking figures of the Overlord Body Peak might be unable to save Ye Chen this time.
"Miss, Ye Chen has been captured. This guy really makes more trouble than he's worth, it's infuriating." The black-clad girl, Zhu'er, said with an extremely ugly expression.
She truly didn't expect that Ye Chen had the audacity to even dare provoke that high-ranking figure.
Could it be he has gone insane?
"Sigh! I also can't figure out why he did this. It seems now I can only go negotiate with the higher-ups of the Divine Cauldron Alliance and the Celestial Pill Pavilion, hoping they'll show me some respect and release Ye Chen." Shangguan Zitong couldn't help but sigh.
After all, she was a talented disciple of the Ziwei Sacred Land, with limitless potential.
Therefore, the higher-ups of the Divine Cauldron Alliance and the Celestial Pill Pavilion should give her some face.
"Miss, the auction is about to begin, and Ye Chen should be fine for the time being. We should wait until after the auction ends to negotiate with the higher-ups of the Divine Cauldron Alliance and the Celestial Pill Pavilion." Zhu'er quickly said.
This auction was the biggest in the history of Cang Province, and it's rumored that an ancient, long-lost elixir would appear.
Perhaps this elixir is the Evil Exorcism Pill that Zhu'er has been desperately seeking.
So how could she miss this opportunity?
As for Ye Chen, although he was captured by the higher-ups of the Divine Cauldron Alliance and the Celestial Pill Pavilion,
he is, after all, a true disciple of the Overlord Body Peak. The higher-ups should not punish him for the time being.
Therefore, rescue after the auction ends will not be too late.
"No, I must rescue Ye Chen now. I absolutely cannot let anything happen to him." Shangguan Zitong furrowed her brows tightly, her eyes filled with intense worry.
Whoosh!
The next moment, her figure flickered, appearing before Steward Li, saying coldly, "I want to see your higher-ups in the Divine Cauldron Alliance. Take me to them quickly."
"Ha! It's useless. Ye Chen's recklessness has offended that high-ranking figure. Even if you have a Golden Member Card, you cannot plead for him." Steward Li couldn't help but chuckle, his mouth filled with thick amusement.
In his view, the Golden Member Card Shangguan Zitong carried was likely borrowed from an elder.
As for her, she couldn't possibly have obtained a Golden Member Card on her own.
So even if she pleads for Ye Chen, it would be to no avail.
Not even her elders could easily save this trash Ye Chen.
"Shut up, just take me there. As for the rest, you're not qualified to manage." Shangguan Zitong said coldly, her eyes shooting out terrifying frosty light, completely different from her usual gentle demeanor.
