SSS Ranked Transmigration: Taming Beauties and The Beasts!

Everyone shook their heads helplessly when they heard Ayla's shameless plan, and before Garran could take this opportunity to offer to pay the bills, Yuchen already suggested with a smile.

"As I mentioned earlier, you really don't have to pay for everything at this auction,"

Sigh!

"Alright, if you insist," Cain sighed and thanked Yuchen for it, as he thought that there was actually no need for him to be treated the same with the little girls, but freebies were freebies, there was no way he wouldn't accept it.

As the atmosphere had calmed down a little bit, when the auctioneer wanted to proceed to auction another item, she froze for a moment as she was surprised that the white jade token on her waist trembled.

She then immediately checked it since she knew that it must be of importance to disturb her in midway auctioning.

When she received the news, she was stunned for a second with her eyes widened, attracting the audience as they were curious why the auctioneer suddenly stopped the auction for a moment, which was a very rare case in the Starlight Auction House.

"Ladies and gentlemen!" the auctioneer called out, showing a radiant yet slightly apologetic smile. "I have some wonderful news concerning the item we just finished auctioning."

After she paused for a moment, she continued. "I've just been informed by our young miss from the Liang Family that she has already identified four holders of the other map fragments, which means only one remains unaccounted for. There are only five fragments in total. So if any of you happen to own the fifth fragment, or even have intel on its whereabouts, please contact us soon."

The auction hall immediately became chaotic as they hadn't expected that the Starlight Auction House had already identified four of the fragment map holders.

Because if they had known that they had already identified four of them, leaving only one behind, they would definitely have gone all out in obtaining the fragment map previously.

That's why they were baffled why they hadn't been informed about this information in the first place.

Meanwhile, inside the VIP-9 room, a young man and an old man were discussing seriously after they heard it.

"Old Wu, is it possible they've discovered we have a map fragment? The young man knitted his eyebrows as he recalled that there shouldn't be anyone who knew he had a fragment map.

Old Wu slowly shook his head. "I doubt it. Only a handful of people are aware of our fragment, and none would leak that information easily."

"Let's go meet her directly then instead of guessing something pointless like this." The young man said as he stood and walked towards the door.

When both of them arrived in front of the VVIP-1 room, they were greeted by a middle-aged man. "May I help you?"

"I'd like to see Yuchen," the young man answered with a polished smile. "Please let her know that a friend wishes to discuss something important."

The middle-aged man was surprised because this was the second time someone had come to look after Yuchen. He then nodded and bowed a little before walking towards the aisle.

"Come with me. The young miss isn't in this room."

After they arrived in front of the VVIP-5 room, the middle-aged man knocked on the door lightly, surprising the young man.

'She is with Garran? This is now becoming interesting.' The young man thought to himself as he smiled.

On the other side of the door, Cain chuckled when he sensed the visitors' approach. "Seems our guest has arrived," he said, tossing a glance at Fenix. "Let them in."

Fenix then gave Dante a glance instead of opening it by himself, making Cain shake his head as he thought. 'This lazy mf. I'm asking him to open the door in case something like before happens again, but this guy orders Dante instead of doing it himself.'

Garran and Yuchen instantly shifted their attention towards the door as they were curious about the person that Cain told them to have one of the fragment maps.

When the door opened, the young man and Old Wu instantly scanned the room and were surprised when they noticed that there were a lot of people inside and that a few of them were just ordinary people who didn't have any power.

Not only were both of them surprised, but Yuchen and Garran were also the same, as they hadn't thought that the person who Cain mentioned was someone they knew.@@novelbin@@

"You!" Garran opened his mouth first, looking at the young man with long green hair who wore a green robe. "Arion… You actually have one of the fragment maps?"

Both the young man and Old Wu were taken aback when they heard it.

"Garran, who told you that?" The young man looked at Garran with a frown.

Garran raised his eyebrows as he hadn't expected that Cain wasn't lying when he said he knew one of them who had the fragment was attending the auction.

"I honestly don't know about it either, Arion." Garran shook his head before glancing at Cain with a chuckle. "My new friend is the one who told me about that. He is Cain."

Arion's frown deepened when he heard that it was a stranger who knew about it, and Garran even introduced him as his friend.

"May I ask how you came by this information?" Arion asked Cain as he walked towards an empty sofa in the corner.

"I'm sorry, but I can't tell you." Cain shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly.

"Don't think too much about it. The reason I know that you have the map is because you happen to be nearby. That's all I can say." Cain explained with a smile, thinking that he needed to at least tell him a little bit so that there wouldn't be any misunderstanding.

Before Arion could ask further, Garran glanced at him with a serious expression as he shook his head. "Don't ask him any further. There's no reason he's lying to you."

Arion knitted his eyebrows for a second before sighing and sitting down. "Alright then, I'll trust your words for now,"

He then added, glancing at Yuchen with a curious expression, "So who else holds a fragment?"

"It's that sword maniac, Li Jian." Yuchen answered with a chuckle.

"Oh, it's him." Arion nodded in reassurance before asking as he raised an eyebrow. "Do you have a plan in mind?"

Cain spoke up before Yuchen could respond, waving a hand in an offhand gesture. "If the missing holder is also entering the secret realm, we'll find them. As I said, I only recognized you had a fragment because you were close."

He then added, "Naturally, we will ask them to join us kindly since we really need that fragment."

"What if they don't want to join or hand over the fragment?" Arion asked with a meaningful smile as he already half-accepted the fact that Cain might really know about him having the fragment because he was near him.

"It's simple. Just take it by force." Cain replied with a smug expression.

Arion nodded in agreement before glancing at Yuchen. "Have you talked to that sword maniac for cooperation?"

He then added with a serious expression. "As you already know, that guy likes to act alone since he is confident with his own strength. What if he didn't want to cooperate with us later on?"

Before Yuchen could reply, Cain interrupted as he waved his hand nonchalantly. "As I said previously, just take it by force. It's that simple!"

Paused for a second, Cain added with a sneer. "Just make sure to spread the word that we only lack one fragment map so that if someone has it, they will at least go to the secret realm."

"Oh, are you sure that it's so simple to take it from that sword maniac?" Arion asked with a mocking smile, thinking that Cain might not even know Li Jian's strength if he said it that confidently.

"If Cain says it's that simple," Garran interposed confidently, "then it truly is that simple."

When Arion heard it, he was stunned because Garran was the one who said it, which meant that Garran must be sure of it since he knew that with Garran's personality, he wouldn't lie with something like this.

He then lost in his thoughts as he was baffled with Garran's claim that it was so simple for Cain to take the fragment map by force from Li Jian. Because he was sure that Cain's rank shouldn't be higher than his since, from Cain's statement and appearance, he should also enter the secret realm.

This was the part that made him become curious, as he knew that even though Li Jian couldn't be said to be the strongest in the entire island, he could be said to be one of the top 5 or even 3 in the entire island.

And he was pretty sure that there was no one within the same rank who would be confident to say they could simply take something from Li Jian.

'I guess you're free to rack your brains all you want, Arion.' Garran sneered as he thought to himself when he watched Arion's funny expression since he should be using all of his brain cells to think about it at the moment.

Garran then tilted his head since he also wanted to see Yuchen's funny expression because he thought that Yuchen wouldn't know about Cain's monstrous strength.

However, when he looked at Yuchen's calm expression, he was the one that was surprised instead.

'Does she know his real strength too?' Garran frowned while thinking to himself for a bit before cursing in his heart. 'Fuck it, I don't want to think anything related to him again.'
