As he spoke, Ling Xiao touched the beast ring and released a strange beast that looked like ice crystals.
"This is a Dark Ice Lion! And it's a Dark Ice Lion at the pinnacle of the Three Talents Realm! How did you catch it? "
Feng Yanran asked in surprise when she saw the obedient puppy-like beast squatting near Ling Xiao.
"You don't have to worry about that. Just tell me how much it can be sold for."
Ling Xiao asked.
"I can't say for sure, but it's worth at least ten million low-grade spirit stones. If you want to buy slaves, it should be more than enough."
Feng Yanran thought for a while.
"Since that's the case, I'll go. It's better if you don't follow me. After all, you're from the Ice Phoenix Clan. If we get too close, I'm afraid it'll be disadvantageous to the crown prince, Feng Yinshan."
After Ling Xiao finished speaking, he put the Dark Ice Lion back into the beast ring and flew in the direction of the Divine Phoenix Auction House.
Feng Yanran wanted to chase after him, but she gave up in the end.
"Uncle Qingyan, can you secretly protect him for me?"
She looked back and saw Feng Qingyan walking out from the shadows.
"There's no need for that. This kid is stronger than you think. I already know about his identity. Since he's the son of our Ice Phoenix Clan's benefactor, we should treat him better. But don't go overboard. Otherwise, spoiling him won't be able to nurture a talent. That's harming him!"
Feng Qingyan shook his head.
"Oh, I know."
Feng Yanran looked in the direction Ling Xiao left and shook her head helplessly. She finally chose to give up on following him.
"You'd better hurry up and cultivate in the Heavenly Essence Treasure Pagoda. Otherwise, your cultivation will be surpassed by that kid."
Feng Qingyan smiled and said, "If you want to stay by his side, the difference in strength can't be too big. Otherwise, you'll only be a burden."
"I know."
Feng Yanran naturally understood this, so she quickly set off for the Heavenly Essence Treasure Pagoda.
Even if she couldn't maintain the advantage in cultivation over Ling Xiao, the difference couldn't be too big.
…
The Divine Phoenix Auction House was a place filled with resentment and dark aura.
Standing outside, you could even hear the screams of the creatures in the cages.
It was a wail of grief, anger, and unwillingness.
Some of the slaves here used to be generals who guarded a region, some were fearsome pirates, and some were famous talented martial artists. There were also terrifying prisoners who had been imprisoned.
Of course, most of them were ordinary humans.
Because humans had the highest intelligence among all the races, they could learn the most skills.
She could cook, wash clothes, clean, and wait on people.
Therefore, human slaves were also the most popular here, and the price was not too expensive.
Ling Xiao was very unhappy about this.
He was also a human, and seeing his own kind locked up in a cage and being pointed at by others made him feel terrible.
However, he also knew that he could not be impulsive.
There were many experts here, and they were basically all Heaven Realm martial artists.
There were Sky of Two Elements Realm, Sky of Three Talents Realm, Sky of Five Elements Realm, Sky of Six Arts Realm, and Sky of Seven Stars Realm experts.
These people had restrained their auras and looked no different from ordinary people.
However, when they really unleashed their strength, it was truly terrifying.
Although they would restrain themselves a little in the imperial city and would not dare to kill wantonly, squashing a few ants to death would not be too much of a problem.
Taking a deep breath, Ling Xiao walked into the legendary Divine Phoenix Auction House.
At the entrance, there were similarly guards standing there.
Ling Xiao ignored them and walked straight in.
Just as he entered, someone came forward to welcome him.
"Esteemed guest, may I ask what service you require?"
Her attitude was not bad, which left a good impression on Ling Xiao.
"I want to auction this!"
Ling Xiao took out the Darkice Lion from the beast ring and placed it in front of that woman.
"It's actually the Darkice Lion. Esteemed guest, please follow me."
Clearly, this woman was only in charge of welcoming guests. The one who was truly in charge of appraising treasures and discussing transactions was not her.
The woman led Ling Xiao to the appraisal hall.
This place was somewhat similar to the Heavenly Dragon Auction House's Appraisal Hall. It was just that inside were all some slaves and beasts. It was completely different from the Heavenly Dragon Auction House's auction items.
"Quickly look, a Darkice Lion at the pinnacle of the Tri-Talent Heaven Realm. Is this person going to auction it?"
"If it's an auction, we have to make good use of the opportunity. Darkice Lions are rare in the first place, let alone a Darkice Lion at the pinnacle of the Tri-Talent Heaven Realm. This is even more powerful than martial artists of the same realm. If we obtain it, not only will it be a good helper, it will also be a good mount."
"Go, go, go. Go to the auction hall and wait. There will definitely be an auction later."
In the crowd, many people's eyes lit up when they saw the Darkice Lion. To them, this Darkice Lion could be considered a supreme treasure.
Regardless of whether it was for their own use or as a gift, it was very good.
"Esteemed guest, this is our appraisal hall. Please follow me in."
That young woman led Ling Xiao into the appraisal hall. Inside was as he expected. It was really different from the Heavenly Dragon Auction House.
He could even hear the sound of crying coming from inside.
It turned out to be an eleven or twelve year old human girl. She looked as cute as carved jade. Only the two lines of clear tears made people feel pity for her.
"Beast!"
Ling Xiao couldn't help but secretly curse.
Such a young child wanted to be sold. This kind of behavior really made people's hair stand on end.
He finally realized how low the status of humans in the Divine Phoenix Continent was. Unless you had strength, you were no different from animals.
They could be bought and sold wantonly, and even slaughtered.
"No, I promised Feng Yanran that I wouldn't cause trouble."
He took a deep breath and turned his head to look at the old man who was in charge of receiving him.
"Esteemed guest, this is Old Bai. You can chat first, I'll take my leave."
After the young woman sent Ling Xiao off, she turned and left.
"You are Ling Xiao?"
Old Bai looked at Ling Xiao with a smile and asked.
"That's right."
Ling Xiao wasn't wearing a mask at this time, so it was normal for others to recognize him. After all, many people knew that he had made a one-month agreement with the Blood Skull.
"I didn't expect you to have the time to stroll around the auction house. Aren't you afraid of dying at the hands of the Blood Skull in a month?"
Old Bai's eyes were filled with mockery.
Ling Xiao said indifferently, "This has nothing to do with you. Can my Profound Ice Lion be auctioned here?"
He didn't want to argue with this person. This auction house belonged to the Phoenix Academy. It was certain that the other party was on the Blood Skull's side. There was no point in arguing with him.
Old Bai frowned slightly. He was obviously a little angry. However, business was business, so he didn't explode. He only asked indifferently, "Esteemed guest, do you have any special requirements for the auction?"
"What are your rules?"
Ling Xiao asked back.
"The commission is 20%, and the auction price is spirit stones."
Old Bai replied.
"Isn't it 10%?"
Ling Xiao asked doubtfully.
