Yan Peng stared at Ling Xiao, who was still laughing. His whole body was trembling with anger.
"You dare to laugh at me?"
"Why wouldn't I dare to laugh at you? You're just an idiot, yet you still want to lower the price. Think about it, the Mysterious Ice Lion is such a good thing. Even if Yanran doesn't bid, will no one bid against you? Great Roc Clan's Young Master? You think too highly of yourself! "
Ling Xiao was even more disdainful of Yan Peng.
This person was too self-righteous, as if there was no one else in the Imperial City other than the Great Roc Clan.
He didn't know that there were many people in the Imperial City who dared to not give face to the aristocrats.
These people weren't weak. They had the courage and confidence to not give face to the Imperial Family.
However, the price of the item had risen to more than 20 million, which was a bit too high. They felt that it wasn't worth it, so they stopped bidding.
"Yanran, let's go."
Leaving behind an embarrassed Yan Peng, Ling Xiao called Feng Yanran, and the two returned to the backstage.
Ling Xiao paid more than 6 million low-grade spirit stones for Qin Huo, and he actually made a profit. He originally thought that he would need to use the Heavenly Spirit Pill, but he didn't use it this time.
"Can the seal on this person be removed?"
Ling Xiao looked at the white-haired old man, who was still limping after being beaten by him, and asked.
"Young Master Ling, it's not that we don't want to remove it, but after the seal is removed, with his strength, I'm afraid you won't be able to control him. If something happens to you in the Auction House, we won't be able to answer to Qingxu College."
The white-haired old man replied.
"Hehe, are you deliberately making things difficult for me?"
Ling Xiao sneered and no longer spoke. He left the Auction House with Feng Yanran and Qin Huo.
At this moment, Qin Huo was still under the control of the seal, so he was no different from a strong ordinary person. As long as a warrior was slightly stronger, he could be subdued.
Although Qin Huo didn't really trust Ling Xiao, he could only leave the auction house by following Ling Xiao. Hence, he didn't say anything.
When they walked out of the door, Yan Peng suddenly appeared behind the white-haired old man. He patted the white-haired old man's shoulder and said, "Manager Bai, well done. Otherwise, if Qin Huo were to break the seal, my men might not be his match."
"Young Master Yan, you flatter me. That Ling Xiao actually dared to make a move on me. I want to see him die right now!"
Old Bai laughed ferociously.
"Hahaha, don't worry, you'll see that kid's living specimen very soon!"
Yan Peng laughed wildly.
On the way to Qingxu College, there were few people. Ling Xiao suddenly stopped and casually unlocked Qin Huo's shackles.
Then, he said, "General Qin, next, I will release your seal. Do not resist!"
Qin Huo was stunned for a moment. Then, he revealed a pleasantly surprised expression and nodded repeatedly.
He didn't know if Ling Xiao's words were true or not, but as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he wouldn't give up.
"Yanran, I'll have to trouble you to stand guard. It might take some time to release the seal."
Ling Xiao looked at Feng Yanran and said.
"Why don't you do it after we go back?"
Feng Yanran glanced at Qin Huo. It was obvious that she didn't trust Qin Huo.
With Qin Huo's strength, it would be easy for him to deal with the two of them.
"Because it's too late. Do you think Yan Peng will let me go?"
Ling Xiao smiled and said, "I'll give him a surprise."
After saying that, he didn't waste any more time. He took out some materials from his storage ring and began the process of releasing the seal.
Ling Xiao's attainments in the art of refining formations weren't any worse than his alchemy skills. Although the formation that sealed Qin Huo's Yuan Qi was powerful, it was far inferior to the Immemorial Formation. It could only be considered as ordinary.
He estimated that it would only take 15 minutes to completely release it.
Now, he only hoped that there wouldn't be any trouble in this 15 minutes.
After all, in the process of releasing the seal, it required both soul power and Heaven's Yuan Qi. Once it was affected, it would be very dangerous.
However, 15 minutes was still too long.
In around 10 minutes, danger arrived.
It was the assassin.
The assassin beside Yan Peng.
He was also a Ten Directions Heaven Realm martial artist.
No wonder Yan Peng would stop the Divine Phoenix Auction House from releasing Qin Huo's seal. Although this assassin was powerful, Qin Huo wasn't afraid of him.
"Stop!"
Feng Yanran blocked the assassin's path.
"Move, or I'll kill you too!"
The assassin frowned. He knew Feng Yanran's identity and didn't dare to act rashly. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to survive in the imperial city.
"How much did Yan Peng give you? I can double it!" Feng Yanran knew that her identity and position wouldn't be able to scare this person. Hence, she used the method of bribing him with money.
"You think I'll fall for it?"
The assassin sneered and stopped talking nonsense. He could tell that Feng Yanran was stalling for time.
Suddenly, he turned into an afterimage.
Then, Feng Yanran fell to the ground.
The assassin didn't dare to be ruthless. However, it wasn't a problem to knock Feng Yanran unconscious.
"Die!"
After dealing with Feng Yanran, the assassin's remaining targets were Ling Xiao and Qin Huo.
As long as he killed these two, he would be able to get a large sum of money from Yan Peng. From then on, he would be free and unfettered. He could have whatever he wanted.
At the critical moment, the Heaven Punishing Martial Spirit appeared behind Qin Huo's back again. His fighting spirit pounced towards the assassin, attempting to use his Martial Spirit to temporarily block the assassin.
"Insignificant skill!"
The assassin sneered. Similarly, his Martial Spirit appeared behind him. It was a blurry blood shadow. It was hard to tell what it was.
However, after that thing appeared, the assassin's aura suddenly surged. At the same time, a powerful will collided with Qin Huo's fighting spirit.
Boom!
Both of their wills disappeared at the same time.
The assassin revealed a sinister smile. The sharp blade pierced through the void and pierced towards Ling Xiao's throat.
However, at that moment, his expression suddenly changed.
He didn't know when, but a huge eye appeared in the sky and stared at him.
That terrifying will was actually much stronger than Qin Huo's.
"How is this possible!"
The assassin's entire body was covered in cold sweat. His Spiritual Sea was in a state of chaos. He couldn't even use the move he was about to use.
Soul power was the key to controlling martial skills. Inner strength was the key to the power of martial skills.
He couldn't lack any of them.
He discovered that he had underestimated Ling Xiao.
This young man was far more terrifying than he had imagined.
"Blood Destruction Art!"
The assassin suddenly roared and spat out a mouthful of blood. His originally chaotic eyes gradually returned to normal. By using this self-harming method, he had broken Ling Xiao's Eye of the World.
"You must die!"
After being plotted against by Ling Xiao, the assassin felt that Ling Xiao deserved to die.
This wasn't only because of Yan Peng's order. It was also because he felt a huge threat.
Blood Destruction!
Spitting out another mouthful of blood, the two daggers in the assassin's hands turned blood red. He used a terrifying move and attacked Ling Xiao.
Very fast!
Very powerful!
His moves were also very crafty!
