"Who goes there?"
Upon seeing Jiang Chen emerge, a guard immediately stepped forward to question him.Unsurprised by the obstacle, Jiang Chen lazily revealed his identity, "Jiang Chen of the Jiang Family, here for the auction!"
The guards, hearing Jiang Chen was from the Jiang family, were puzzled as to why he didn't have an invitation, yet quickly stepped aside, making way for him to pass.
If everyone was to be stopped and questioned at the city gates, the auction would never be able to proceed.
During the initial preparations for the auction, the officials of the summer capital had sent out invitations to various powers and experts. Those who received an invitation could directly enter upon arrival.
Those, like Jiang Chen, who were stopped by the guards, were the ones who appeared suddenly without an invitation.
