Fake Invitation

"Wow! What a beautiful building!"

The Junior Disciples expressed their awe before the Burning Lotus Sect's Auction House that was covered in gold paint and other expensive decorations.

"Okay, let's stop standing around and go inside before the seats are all gone." Liu Lanzhi clapped her hands to gather their attention.

However, right as they approached the entrance, one of the workers there stopped them from entering.

"Excuse me, but which Sect are you from?" he asked them.

"Profound Blossom Sect," said Liu Lanzhi. "Is there a problem?"

"Profound Blossom Sect?" The male worker looked through the list in his hands and shook his head moment later. "I'm sorry, but I cannot find the Profound Blossom Sect on the list of guests today. This year's auction is only open to those with an invitation."

"What? We are not invited? How could that be? We even got an invitation letter!"
