"688 gold, card or cash?"
Thinking about how he would feel a pang in his heart after just one drink, while others have already become VIP members of the underworld, he couldn't help but feel envious. People are the same, how can their fates be so different?

Lu Yu pushed open the door and entered the room, seeing a person completely draped in a white robe, making it impossible to tell whether they were male or female.
However, from the voice saying "Come in," Lu Yu could tell it was a woman.
"Mr. Lu?" The person in the white robe spoke.
"Yes, No. 77 asked me to find you."
The person in the white robe raised her sleeve, swiping over the table. A storage pouch appeared on the table, "Your money is all in there. Also, the auction you are attending is tonight, located at the Deep Blue Auction."
Lu Yu picked up the storage pouch and stored the Spirit Stones from within into his backpack, with the digits indicating an increase of 12,052 Spirit Stones.
Lu Yu left Lichun Restaurant, and a few people followed him out; after walking only a few steps, they discovered Lu Yu's presence had vanished into the crowd.
The ring on the middle finger of Lu Yu's left hand was shining brightly, causing those around him to instinctively overlook his figure.
The Light and Shadow Treasure Pearl, a sixth-grade Spiritual Treasure valued at 9 million Points, can completely conceal one's aura and reduce their presence. By actively using Spiritual Power to activate it, it can create a visual invisibility effect.
Compared to the Shadow Cloak, its effect is stronger and its usage more convenient.
The reason it wasn't used when leaving the Huang Residence was because Lu Yu was unsure if there were Martial Cultivators among the watchers who could see through the invisibility effect of the Light and Shadow Treasure Pearl.
Leaving with the Shadow Cloak would cause those watchers to instinctively think his image was wearing a full-body black robe, and during subsequent tracking and surveillance, they would focus their attention on the black robe.
Thus, he could stealthily slip away using the Light and Shadow Treasure Pearl.
If he appeared a few more times in the eyes of those watchers with the image of the black-robed person, he could effectively mislead their perception.
Simply put, he had created a decoy of a black-robed person for himself.
The more disguises, the safer.
The night falls, and the Deep Blue Auction begins.
The annual large auction in Yunhai City has started, and guests from various places are gathering here for the miscellaneous treasures from all over the world.
Lu Yu, dressed in a black robe, walked toward the Deep Blue Auction.
The guard reached out to stop Lu Yu, "Please show your invitation."
Lu Yu handed the invitation to the guard, who looked at it and respectfully gestured for him to proceed: "Come in."
Lu Yu mingled with the crowd as he entered the Deep Blue Auction.
Of course, he wouldn't attend the auction without proper preparation.
There's no way he'd be stopped at the entrance for not having an invitation, causing a scene, astonishing the guards and surrounding guests, and then walking into the auction with swagger.
Such a thing would never happen to Lu Yu.
With a whole day, he had already figured out the auction's rules. Before it started, Lu Yu had consigned a seventh-grade Spirit Weapon at Deep Blue Auction, obtaining an admission ticket, which was the invitation.
The seventh-grade Spirit Weapon is valued at a million gold, certainly qualifying him to attend the annual Yunhai City auction.
If Lu Yu were more ruthless and offered a spiritual-level seventh-grade Cultivation Technique for consignment at the auction, he could probably directly receive an invitation for the VIP seats.
However, that wasn't necessary.
Lu Yu sat down according to the seat on the invitation, surrounded by a dense crowd, making him inconspicuous amidst them.
