Gender Is Not An Issue For Face Slaps

(MC POV)

With the items I bought stored safely inside my storage ring, my disciples and I prepared to leave the auction house to meet up with Hao Chi again.

On our way down the stairs, we came across an elegantly dressed woman with abundant makeup on her face leaning against the base of the stairs as though waiting for someone.

Upon noticing us, she moved to block our way and several men also appeared to stand behind her.

"You. Are you the one who bidded for the Celestial Maiden hair pin collection?"

"Sorry, I'm not," I lied, moving to the side in an attempt to walk past her.

The woman immediately took a step to the side to continue blocking my path, "Don't lie to me, I know you are the one who was occupying the top most auction room. Only the most important people in this city are able to use that place so why is a nobody like you able to use it over me?! That place should have been mine!"

Hmm… I see, I see.
