At this moment, Xiao Longhe took a deep breath and looked at Elder Lu.
"Brother Lu, I'm sorry for what happened."
"Since the auction item is no longer here, Brother Lu, please take back your spirit stones."
Xiao Longhe returned all of Elder Lu's spirit stones.
And Elder Lu also sighed.
Encountering such a situation, he could only consider himself unlucky.
He didn't say anything, but put away the spirit stones and returned to the first floor.
Afterward, Xiao Longhe spoke to the crowd:
"In light of the recent incident, the auction will be paused for an hour."
"Please take a moment to rest, fellow Daoists."
After saying this, Xiao Longhe turned and left the podium.
Soon, experts from the Eight Clans began to restore the array barrier around the auction hall.
After about an hour or so.
A considerable portion of the array barrier was restored.
However, fully restoring it would still require a lot of effort.
