Ao Chen Tai took a few steps back and bowed respectfully towards the approaching man in purple.
"Greetings, Clan Elder."
The two companions beside him also had respectful expressions on their faces as they bowed in greeting.
A smile appeared on the purple-robed man's face. As he walked forward, he stepped on the air and arrived before the puppet beast. He did not look at Zi Che or Bai Su, but instead looked at Su Ming and nodded with a smile.
"Are you senior Tian Xie Zi's new disciple?"
Su Ming's expression remained the same. His gaze fell on the purple-robed man. With just one glance, he could tell that this person was not in the Transcendence Realm, but a powerful Berserker in the Bone Sacrifice Realm.
That was Su Ming's personality. If the other party was polite, he would rarely act in a domineering manner. Even if he could not get up at that moment, with just one thought, the puppet beast beneath him rapidly shrank and turned into a ball of black smoke that covered the area below Su Ming's waist. That black smoke rapidly gathered together, and after the span of a few breaths, the puppet beast disappeared.
Su Ming stood in midair. He looked normal, but in truth, he was still sitting cross-legged. The legs that were exposed were formed by the Phantom Fork. This meant that the Phantom Fork puppet had turned into his legs and was supporting him so that he could walk like a normal person.
"My Master is indeed Tian Xie Zi." Su Ming wrapped his fist in his palm towards the purple-robed man.
When the purple-robed man saw the puppet beast shrinking under Su Ming's body, a strange light appeared in his eyes.
'Looks like the rumors I heard about the ninth summit and Northern Frontier Tribe are true. The Phantom Fork puppet is unique to Phantom Dais Tribe. It's difficult for outsiders to get their hands on it.'
Su Ming smiled faintly and did not speak.
"Brother Su, since you're Tian Xie Zi's disciple, then you're in the same generation as me. Brother Su, I am Chang Yi. Please!" The purple-robed man spoke with a smile and moved to the side.
"Brother Chang, please!" Su Ming smiled and wrapped his fist in his palm.
The two of them moved forward at the same time. With just one step, the purple-robed man immediately moved 400 something feet forward. He did not even need to turn his head back to know that Su Ming was 200 something feet behind him. His expression remained the same, but he could not help but form an accurate judgment of Su Ming's level of cultivation in his heart.
With his level of cultivation, he could naturally tell that Su Ming was not hiding his speed. In fact, Su Ming was indeed much slower than him. More importantly, he could see the black mist that was formed by Phantom Dais Tribe's puppets surrounding Su Ming's legs. It was clear that Su Ming could increase his speed slightly.
"This person is so arrogant. He actually transformed the puppet into a pair of legs while he himself is still sitting cross-legged." The purple-robed man smiled faintly and did not pay too much attention to it. Instead, he slowed down and waited for Su Ming for a moment. When Su Ming was beside him, he moved forward once again.
"Brother Su, your hobbies are rather unique. I've never seen such pleasure before." As they moved forward, the purple-robed man smiled at Su Ming and swept his gaze past his legs.
Su Ming shook his head and said with a smile, "Brother Chang, I've embarrassed myself in front of you. It's not convenient for me to get up. Please forgive me."
Zi Che remained by Su Ming's side with a calm look on his face as he continued following Su Ming. Bai Su was originally the same. She was looking around curiously, but when she heard the purple-robed man's words, she frowned, but when she saw that Su Ming was not bothered by it, she did not speak.
"Oh? It's not convenient for you to get up? Could it be that the cultivation method you're practicing has caused your legs to become handicapped? "A surprised look appeared on the purple-robed man's face.
"It's about the same." Su Ming nodded.
"It's a pity, what a pity. But there's a sacred herb from Western Sea Clan among the items being auctioned this time. It might be of help to you, brother Su." As he spoke, the purple-robed man descended from midair and landed on the snow in the tribe. Before him was a tent that was not too big. Clearly, this was the temporary lodgings he had found for Su Ming and the others.
"This is …" There was still a smile on his face, and he was just about to speak.
Yet before he could finish speaking, a shocking boom suddenly came from beside him. That boom shook the ground so much that it looked as if it was trembling, causing the snow on the ground to fly up to a height of ten feet. It was as if there was a wave of impact sweeping through the area with the spot as its center.
The tents around them were also torn apart viciously. Almost all the people in the tribe looked over swiftly.
The purple-robed man's expression changed drastically, and disbelief appeared in his eyes. He looked at Su Ming and was momentarily stunned.
He saw the muffled booms coming from the instant the legs formed by Su Ming's puppets landed on the ground. That feeling was as if a towering mountain had descended from the sky and crashed into the ground, causing the ground to tremble and stirring up violent gusts of wind that scattered in all directions.
He also saw that the instant Su Ming's legs landed on the ground, they turned into a large amount of black smoke as if they could not withstand the powerful force. As they spread out, they revealed Su Ming, who was sitting cross-legged and meditating within, causing his body to fall, and with another boom, he sat down on the ground.
The purple-robed man sucked in a deep breath. He could clearly feel the ground trembling, and he could sense that the source of all this was the ninth summit's Su Ming!
'This person … Just what did he bring with him? Why is he so heavy?!' The purple-robed man's pupils shrank. He remembered Su Ming's speed just now and his own judgment, but by the looks of it, his judgment was like child's play. Su Ming had a weight that was like a mountain on his body, and he had only managed to widen the distance between them slightly. If he took that weight away, then his speed …
When the purple-robed man thought of this, he could not help but be stunned.
"Su Ming! He's Su Ming! " The people around the area instantly turned their gazes towards the two booms and the tremors on the ground. Once they saw Su Ming sitting on the ground, someone immediately recognized him.
"He's Su Ming? That fourth disciple of the ninth summit? "
"That's right. I saw him fight against Si Ma Xin before. Look, isn't that Zi Che beside him?"
"He's here as well..? Interesting. I heard that eldest senior sister Tian Lan Meng, senior brother Si Ma Xin, and quite a number of powerful Berserkers on the Great Frozen Plains' List are here. The auction this time will definitely be interesting."
"Western Sea Clan's auction is held once every hundred years. How could it not attract people? I heard that this is just a normal auction. Once the auction ends, they'll hold a small-scale one, but those who can join that sort of gathering must at least have attained great completion in the Bone Sacrifice Realm. Most of them are Progenitors in the Berserker Soul Realm."
Within the temporary tribe organized by Western Sea Clan for the auction was a man sitting cross-legged in a tent not too far away from Su Ming. That man was handsome, and when he opened his eyes, his gaze seemed to be able to pierce through the tent and see what was outside.
"Su Ming …" the man said calmly, but a brief flash of killing intent appeared in his eyes. He was Si Ma Xin! There were quite a number of temporary tents that surrounded Si Ma Xin's tent. The Freezing Sky Clan disciples in those tents all treated Si Ma Xin as their leader and listened to his orders.
In another corner of the tribe was a rather secluded area. There were eight tents there, and right in the middle was a white tent. There was a woman sitting in it, and there was a white wooden slip placed before her. She was gently stroking it with her index finger, and there was a constant frown between her brows.
Behind her was a pretty girl who was combing the woman's hair. Occasionally, she would stick her head out to look at the woman.
"Eldest senior sister, you've been drawing for a long time. Just what are you drawing?"
The woman sitting there was incredibly beautiful. When she heard the question, she lifted her head. Just as she was about to speak, her expression suddenly changed and she turned her head to the side to look in the direction where Su Ming was.
"He's also here …" That woman was Tian Lan Meng.
At the same time, there were people sitting in the eighteen objects that looked like sharp swords that had pierced the ground and were shaped like swords but were also ships. They opened their eyes and looked in the direction where Su Ming was.
Most of the people who were able to sit on the eighteen ships were old men. When they looked over, shock appeared on their faces.
The two booming sounds had attracted the attention of the entire tribe. Su Ming frowned. With one thought, the black mist that was the puppets gathered around him once again and covered the area below his waist. Then, they slowly propped him up, making him look as if he was standing up from the ground.
"I'm sorry. There's something wrong with my body. I can't really control it. Is this my temporary residence?" Su Ming put on an apologetic look towards the purple-robed man who was staring at him blankly not too far away.
The purple-robed man took a deep breath, and his gaze as he looked at Su Ming immediately changed. He wrapped his fist in his palm towards Su Ming.
"Brother Su, you've misunderstood. Of course this isn't your residence. Not only is this place simple, it's also noisy. Brother Su, this way please. The northern part is empty. It's much quieter there, and it's suitable for you to train there.
"After all, the auction this time will last for a few days. Brother Su, this way please!" A cordial look appeared on the purple-robed man's face. It was an attitude of respect towards powerful warriors and people of equal status. It might not have seemed much different from before, but anyone with a discerning eye could still see the slight differences.
"If that's the case … then I'll have to trouble you, brother Chang." Su Ming fell into a moment of pensive silence before he nodded with a smile.
Under the purple-robed man's lead, the crowd walked through the tribe. All the Freezing Sky Clan members who saw Su Ming seemed to be hesitant, but most of them smiled and nodded towards him.
When they arrived at the northern part of the tribe, they found that it was much quieter. There were not many tents there, and most of them were quite far away from each other.
"This place is suitable for you to train. Brother Su, if there's anything you need, you can tell us now. If you don't have anything in mind and have a sudden thought, you can look for a patrolling Western Sea Clan disciple. We'll try our best to satisfy your needs." The purple-robed man smiled and wrapped his fist in his palm towards Su Ming.
"Thank you, brother Chang. Everything's fine for now," Su Ming said with a smile.
"If that's the case, then I'll take my leave. I'll have someone send you the pictures of the items to be auctioned later. Brother Su, you can take a look first. Of course, the items in there are just a portion of the items to be auctioned. There are some that were added recently and we didn't have time to add them in." The purple-robed man smiled and nodded towards Su Ming before he wrapped his fist in his palm and left.
Zi Che had already brought out some tents from his bag and set them up on the empty ground. There were two tents, and one of them was for Su Ming and Bai Su to stay in. As for Zi Che, he did not think there was a need for them. The entrance to Su Ming's tent was where he would guard and meditate.
"What do you think will be auctioned off..? I'm excited just thinking about it. I won't say anymore." "To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com and vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation. "
