There was no doubt that this was no different from a public execution for Zhang Ziqin.
Although Wang Ling had already had a premonition, he still felt that it was incomparably amazing. Zhang Ziqin actually had to face his dark history again after thousands of years, and his mood at that moment must be exceptionally complicated.
It was clear that Zhang Ziqin was blindly confident in his treasure-stealing skills, and didn't even care about the emperor at all.
He really had a lot of guts to directly steal something that the emperor had put up for auction.
"So in history, was the theft successful this time?" Wang Zhen couldn't help asking curiously.
"Of course it was successful," Zhang Ziqin said with a proud expression on his face.
"West Great Emperor didn't want to kill you?" Wang Zhen asked again.
"He couldn't wait to skin me and chop off my hand. But at the time, he underestimated me and didn't care about me at all. "
"That's not right. I remember that according to history, it didn't seem to be successful," East Great Emperor said at that moment.
"Actually, it was successful."
Zhang Ziqin chuckled. "But in order to save face, West Great Emperor used a temporary replica to sell it, and then ordered people to buy it back at a high price. To the outside world, he just said that I, Zhang Ziqin, had failed in the theft.
"I, Zhang Ziqin, have never failed in the industry. How could I let him spread rumors?
"At that time, I was furious and decided to carry out a precise revenge. So, I almost didn't let off any of the imperial concubines in West Great Emperor's harem.
"So, although I, Zhang Ziqin, haven't married, I should have left behind a lot of children."
"…"
"I found out that Senior Zhang, it's really a miracle that you survived."
Lotus Sun couldn't help giving him a like in the team voice spell.
Logically speaking, Zhang Ziqin's realm hadn't reached its peak yet, but he had actually survived the emperor's pursuit. This was really not easy.
Central Trade Star, Central Auction House. This was the largest auction house that integrated the one hundred and eight stars of the entire trade star system. All the most precious treasures and big deals on the trade star would be gathered here.
There was still some time before the Four Emperors Gathering, so East Great Emperor decided to come to the auction house to join in the fun.
This was originally a historical event, so he had to go.
The magnificent palace with richly ornamented beams and painted rafters occupied a vast area.
Wang Ling saw several real divine beasts guarding the gate, who exuded an imposing aura without being angry, crouching at the gate under the lead of the auction house manager.
"An ancient Lion Dragon Beast … I've read about it in the ancient records at home," Wang Zhen exclaimed.
As the name implied, the Lion Flood Dragon Beast had the head of a lion and the tail of a flood dragon. Its body was huge, like two small mountains.
It was a famous divine beast from ancient times. It was extremely difficult to tame, but once it was tamed, it would be loyal and devoted to its master.
It was not easy for a capable person to tame one.
Every time the Central Auction House held an auction, there would be a total of four tamed Primordial Lion-Dragon Beasts guarding the entrance.
It was enough to show how powerful the owner behind the auction house was.
"A few years ago, I remember that there were only two divine beasts guarding the gate, Lion Flood Dragon Beasts. I didn't expect there to be four this year. Moreover, they were all adults. The owner of the Central Auction House is indeed powerful. "
An old woman with snow-white hair coiled up high stepped out of a bronze chariot with the help of a walking stick. She had a kind face and exuded an imposing aura without being angry; she was a top expert in secret.
With one glance, Wang Ling could tell that this old woman was no ordinary person.
At the very least, she was a Progenitor expert who had just entered the Dao Ancestor realm not long ago.
"This is the leader of Immortal Mountain Sect, Madam Shan Xiu." Zhang Zi secretly introduced her.
"So it's the leader. No wonder she has such an extraordinary bearing," Lotus Sun exclaimed.
Cultivators from ancient times had retained their most primitive style and were of all shapes and sizes, which was very different from modern cultivation society.
This wasn't something that could be found in school textbooks in the modern cultivation world.
Seeing with one's eyes and feeling with one's heart would be of great help and enlightenment.
"Welcome, Madam Shan Xiu." As soon as the auction house manager saw the old woman, he immediately knew who she was and bowed in greeting.
Madam Shan Xiu nodded slightly with a kind expression on her face. She swept her gaze over the four divine beasts guarding the gate, then walked in unhurriedly.
Even a Progenitor expert would feel a little pressure in the face of these four enormous divine beasts guarding the gate.
If even a grand Progenitor expert felt this way, then the rest of the people who had entered the auction house were even more apprehensive.
"So scary …"
"Don't worry, these lion flood dragons have been tamed. They won't attack people without orders. "
Passing by the gate, an insider said, "They guard the gate and serve as a good deterrent. It's also a kind of screening; those who are too weak aren't qualified to enter the central auction house. They'll faint as soon as they pass through the gate. "
"I see."
Hearing this, a passerby on the side nodded hurriedly. "But there's still something I don't understand. Why did they put four at the gate this time …"
"It's said that the famous godly thief Zhang Zitie will be here today to steal the Great Emperor's auction items, so two more were added at the last minute."
Wang Ling and the others: "…"
Great Emperor East was puzzled in the team telepathy spell. "It definitely wouldn't be a problem for you to go in with Li Ren's body, but with your realm at the time, could you enter the auction house without a hitch? There's only one entrance to the central auction house, and the rest of the hall is protected by a barrier. If you want to get inside, you can only go through the main gate. "
"Indeed."
In a trance, Zhang Zitie also felt like his memory was a little messed up. "In my memory, it was very smooth to enter the central auction house back then, and there shouldn't have been so many gatekeeping divine beasts at all."
"So, this emperor has always wondered if you were bragging." Great Emperor East was speechless.
He never had a very good impression of Zhang Zitie.
His only good impression was that Zhang Zitie had harmed Great Emperor West's imperial concubines later in history.
Although a small number of Great Emperor East's imperial concubines had also been harmed by Zhang Zitie …
But while Zhang Zitie was a scourge, he didn't leave behind any seeds to sprout in the East Imperial Palace next year …
Unlike Great Emperor West's side, which was already a vast prairie.
"Whether I'm bragging or not, we'll know later." Zhang Zitie snickered.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this. Let's go in first. "Great Emperor East waved his hand, too lazy to bicker with Zhang Zitie.
Dressed in civilian clothes, they pretended to be passersby cultivators, with Wang Ling, who was playing the role of "Great Emperor East," walking at the front.
At that moment, Wang Ling could feel the auction house manager's gaze on him as he moved, as well as the gazes of the four gatekeeping lion dragon beasts.
This was originally a kind of deterrence. Everyone who entered the central auction house would experience this kind of intense gaze to prove that they had a high enough realm to enter the auction house and participate in the transaction.
However, something unexpected happened.
Just as the gazes of the four lion dragon beasts fell on Wang Ling, a terrifying and dangerous aura was instantly reflected back at him!
All spiritual pressure and oppressive gazes had no effect on Wang Ling, and instead triggered Wang Ling's passive ability to reflect oppression …
Just for a moment.
The eyes of the four gatekeeping lion dragon beasts widened as they sweated profusely.
Because there were so many people entering at the same time, they had no idea who on earth was reflecting this oppressive force.
It was just that when that person passed through the gate, it was as if a large machete had been directly pressed against their necks, making them feel cold all over.
Rumble …
Just as Wang Ling entered the auction house, there was the rumble of a huge object falling to the ground in front of the gate.
The commotion was so huge that the ground beneath their feet trembled.
Wang Ling never thought that just by walking through the gate, he would actually scare off four lion dragon beasts.
He sighed in his heart.
This was too useless.
What kind of divine beasts were they …
They weren't even as strong as his Loopy Toad.
