Wang Gu remained seated, calmly sipping tea from his cup. The female staff member did not return downstairs.
She had been specifically assigned by him to act as his representative during the auction.
His identity might be recognized by the VIP guests. They could realize that Wang Gu was actually Gu Qinghe, and that would cause unnecessary commotion.
As Wang Gu relaxed while waiting for the auction to begin, his eyes suddenly narrowed when he sensed a soul essence orb slipping into his VIP room.
He reacted instantly, summoning his own soul essence orb to counter the intruder. The strength of Wang Gu's primordial soul was clearly far superior.
In mere seconds, the invading soul essence shattered, leaving only Wang Gu's orb behind.
A burst of qi energy exploded outward, startling the female staff member. She turned to look at what had happened, but did not dare ask.
"How rude!"
