Although Ye Ming had long suspected this would happen, there was nothing he could do about it.
Before he left, however, he paid a small price to get some information from the auction house. He learned about the mysterious woman on the ninth floor. She was suspected to be from one of the Overseas Kingdoms and was extremely wealthy, traveling with two serving girls.
Her guards had been hired after her arrival in Jingyang City, and she was currently staying at the Xianya Building. Beyond that, there was no other information.
This information put Ye Ming's mind somewhat at ease.
He planned to return and study the Exotic Stone first, then pay a visit to the mysterious woman. With his current status and power, he was bound to be unable to keep the stone for himself.
'Jiang Lan...'
'Just you wait. Sooner or later, the day will come when I make you regret this and pay the price.'
