603: Chapter 603 Meeting

Woming took Pale and left Villa 66.

"Pale, all your assets are frozen starting today."

"On what grounds?"

"This is Father's decision."

"Don't, Woming, please plead with Lord Father for me," Pale begged.

"Shut up."

Woming took out a card the size of a palm.

"This is a ticket to the Snow Territory Star."

"What do you mean? You want me to go to the Snow Territory Star?"

"I'm not going. I want to stay in the Holy Land."

Pale shook his head repeatedly.

"Hmph, this is not a negotiation, it is an order. You can only return once the Snow Territory Star develops into a Level 2 civilization."

"And if I can't?"

"Then you will rot there until you die!"

Woming threw the ticket to Pale and turned to leave.

...

Yuling Auction House, 76th Floor.

"Manager Qiu, did you ask for me?"

Della felt anxious. It was over; she was going to follow in the footsteps of the previous secretary and be exiled to Ansae Star.

"Sit."

"I won't sit. I prefer standing, Manager."

Qiu Ming smiled upon hearing this.

"Don't worry, it's a good thing."

Della was on the verge of tears. "Manager, please just say it. I can take it."

"Alright, I'll be direct. I plan to send you to Blue Star."

Della's Face turned pale.

As expected.

She was being exiled to Blue Star.

Blue Star?

"Hmm?"

"Blue Star? Manager, did you just say Blue Star? Lord Xiao Weiqing's home planet?"

Qiu Ming nodded with a smile.

Della's Face lit up upon hearing this, and her mood instantly cleared.

"But Manager, there is no Yuling Auction House on Blue Star. What am I supposed to do there?"

"Who said there isn't? Won't there be one once you go?"

"Ah?"

"Manager, what do you mean?"

Qiu Ming said, "I am a Level 7 Manager, and I still have one quota for a Level 3 auction house."

Della's eyes grew brighter as she understood Qiu Ming's meaning.

Managers of Level 7 or higher at Yuling Auction House all have quotas to establish low-level auction houses.

This quota is not only precious but must also be used with caution. A Yuling Auction House can completely drive the economy of a low-level civilization, but because it is equivalent to a branch of Yuling Auction, it is also prone to problems. There are countless cases of Level 7 Managers being sabotaged by their branches.

They are usually only used in one's own hometown or in cooperation with major forces.

Qiu Ming said, "I plan to use this quota on the Blue Star Civilization and establish a Level 3 auction branch on Blue Star, with you in charge."

"Ah, me?"

"Can I do it?"

Della was overjoyed.

She was becoming a manager just like that?

She had leaped into the management tier?

Followed by worry, she had no experience at all. If she messed this up, it wouldn't be as simple as being exiled; she would simply disappear.

Qiu Ming stared at Della and said:

"Della, do you know why I chose you to be my secretary?"

"Your strength has only just reached the Star Lord Realm, and you have no experience. While your ability is decent, it's just average."

"..."

Della drooped her eyelids, looking at Qiu Ming with resentment.

Qiu Ming ignored her and continued, "Because you Gally people are particularly suited to the aesthetic of Blue Star people, especially you. Do you understand what I mean?"

Della blushed upon hearing this. She was no longer a child of a few decades; she would be a hundred years old next year. Of course, she understood what Qiu Ming meant.

Qiu Ming lit a cigar and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.

"Della, people like us, even if we reach Level 9 Manager in the future and can be responsible for top-tier Dominator-level auctions, it's still just that. Our status is still worlds apart from true Dominators."

"Why is Xiao Weiqing not afraid of Pale today? It's not just because of his status, but because of his strength. He can pin Pale down with one hand."

"Xiao Weiqing doesn't even need a single move to kill us. If he respects us—no, it should be said he is merely polite—that is because of our status."

"If one day we are no longer managers, will Xiao Weiqing still give Face to people like us? Will others still give us Face?"

Della was silent; the result was self-evident.

"But you are different."

"If you follow Xiao Weiqing, everything will change. In the future, you can just call me Xiao Ming."

"It is only a matter of time before Xiao Weiqing becomes a member of the Seventh Heaven. As long as members of the Seventh Heaven do not fall, they will eventually become the Undying Realm, and powerful ones at that, or even Heavenly Venerables."

"Della, think about it. If you bear children for Xiao Weiqing, then not only you, but the fate of your entire Gally civilization will change."

"As far as I know, Xiao Weiqing only has three partners, and no wife, let alone children."

With every word Qiu Ming spoke, Della's eyes grew brighter.

However.

Soon.

Della reacted, her eyes becoming clear. "Manager, please don't talk nonsense. How could I have that kind of fate?"

"Haha~"

Qiu Ming laughed loudly.

Qiu Ming was very satisfied with Della's reaction. What he said above was true, but there was another reason he chose Della as his secretary: she could clearly recognize herself and never aimed too high.

"Della, you negotiate with Xiao Weiqing yourself about the establishment of the Level 3 auction house. If you negotiate well, you will be the manager. If you don't, I will negotiate, but I will appoint another manager, and at that time, you will still only be a secretary."

"Yes, Manager, I understand."

Della said seriously. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, a chance to save a thousand years of effort. She must grasp it.

...

...

Xiao Weiqing obtained a fire god crystal and didn't stand on ceremony, beginning to devote himself to Cultivate.

Every time he finished Cultivate, he marveled at the uniqueness of the god crystal. Without the god crystal, his Domain Cultivate would have almost stagnated.

Experts of the Undying Realm didn't teach the Dao of the Domain every month. Xiao Weiqing finally understood why even those Geniuses couldn't make any progress in their Domain for years or even decades, turning instead to Cultivate the Dharma Body.

At the same time, he thanked Pale more than once in his heart.

On the third day.

Xiao Weiqing's virtual account received a sum of credits, a full 800,000, which made Xiao Weiqing ecstatic.

With credits in his pocket, he felt more confident.

At night.

While Xiao Weiqing was in the Villa practicing the Star Contemplation Method.

Yuanbao appeared.

Xiao Weiqing opened his eyes, got up to stretch, and then said:

"Yuanbao, what is it?"

Yuanbao said, "Master, someone is looking for you in the virtual world."

"The virtual world?"

"Blue Star?"

"No, it's from the Fourth Heaven, Yuling Auction House, a woman named Della."

"Della?"

Xiao Weiqing raised an eyebrow, wondering what Della wanted with him.

However, since his Cultivate had just ended, he decided to go and see.

Xiao Weiqing entered the virtual world.

According to the address given by Della, he arrived at a drink shop in the Fourth Heaven.

"Lord Xiao Weiqing, hello. Thank you for coming."

Della was waiting at the entrance. Seeing Xiao Weiqing arrive, she was overjoyed.

"No need for that. Be natural; it's not our first time meeting."

Della led Xiao Weiqing into the drink shop. "My Lord, please sit."

"You sit too." Seeing Della looking nervous, Xiao Weiqing chuckled. "You invited me here, I don't need to host you, do I?"

"Ah, no, no, My Lord, I apologize."

"I said it before, no need to be nervous."

"Tell me what the matter is."
