Zhao Xue 'er, the little girl in white, was full of killing intent. Snowflakes appeared in the void around her. These seemingly dancing snowflakes danced in a mysterious way like runes.
The practitioners in the space around the snowflakes began to feel that their souls were about to freeze. One by one, they ran out of the 100 feet around Zhao Xue 'er.
Shi Yuyan, Lan Xuan, Xuan Ke, and Zhou Lin stood up together and stood behind Chu Chen.
Although Lan Xuan and Zhou Lin were scared out of their wits, they gritted their teeth and didn't leave. Zhou Lin even clenched his fists.
Shi Yuyan was always a fairy who stood high above all evils. The old practitioner Xuan Ke's face was as calm as water, like a lion in a state of alert.
"Luck is predestined. If Miss Xue 'er doesn't understand anything, you can ask God."
Chu Chen replied lightly.
"I don't need to ask God. I just want to ask you, do you think there's no one in the Darknorth Army-breaking Team?"
Zhao Xue 'er's words were sharp, and snowflakes danced in the air.
"Miss Xue 'er, I don't understand what you're talking about. Aren't these people your people?"
Chu Chen smiled indifferently in the face of overwhelming killing intent.
"Big brother, do you think you can muddle through by pretending to be confused at this time?"
"Miss Xue 'er, it's you who are confused!"
A cold light flashed in Chu Chen's eyes. "If you want to do business, you must know what credibility is. The Sky Auction is held by the Darknorth Army-breaking Team, so all the rules are naturally set by you. I draw treasures according to your rules, which means that any treasure I draw is reasonable and legal. You've checked it. Since you didn't find any problem, you want to make trouble for me. Is this how the Darknorth Army-breaking Team does business?"
Chu Chen's voice was neither fast nor loud, but every word came into the ears of all the practitioners in the square.
Zhao Xue 'er's face turned red. She was choked by Chu Chen and didn't know what to say.
The senior members of the Darknorth Army-breaking Team in the central area of the square were also very embarrassed.
This was because Chu Chen's words were very reasonable. He had followed the rules to draw the treasures, and Darknorth had not found out what loopholes he had exploited. It was indeed inexcusable for Darknorth to directly attack him.
But he obviously cheated!
The members of the Darknorth Formation Breaching Team blushed, unable to advance or retreat.
Zhao Xueer had a thousand thoughts in her mind. In the end, she gritted her teeth. Since things had come to this, she had no choice but to take Chu Chen away.
"Everyone, please calm down and listen to this old man's fair words!"
A thunderous sound came from another empty corner of the square, shaking the eardrums of all the cultivators present.
The person who spoke was a tall and thin old man in a black robe. His appearance caused many people to feel fear.
He was one of the ten most powerful kings of the demonic path — Duan Xiong!
Everyone knew that he was a peerless devil, but at the same time, he was also a businessman. Although he was unscrupulous in his actions, when it came to doing business, he had his own principles and would never violate them!
Obviously, the Darknorth Formation Breaching Team could not stop him from speaking.
Zhao Xueer turned around and bowed respectfully in the direction of Duan Xiong. At this time, Chu Chen, who was behind Zhao Xueer, flashed an imperceptible smile at the corner of his mouth.
This old man had finally made his move!
In fact, after seeing Duan Xiong, Chu Chen had changed his strategy. Instead of occasionally drawing the treasures, he had directly drawn the treasures without any restraint.
This was because he was sure that Duan Xiong, the old fox, would protect him. That was why he had drawn the treasures freely. The reason he could win against Duan Xiong was all because of profit!
"This old man and Darknorth have been friends for a long time."
Duan Xiong sighed faintly. "Since entering the Small Celestial Realm, this old man has always been in contact with people from Darknorth. It's because of the Darknorth Formation Breaching Team that I keep my word. I don't covet small profits, and I don't do things that break the rules."
Zhao Xueer bit her lower lip and nodded gently. She couldn't deny these words.
"And now, just as that grey-robed youth said, he's acting according to the rules of your Darknorth Formation Breaching Team. Moreover, you haven't found anything out of the ordinary. If you make a move against him under these circumstances, I'm afraid you'll ruin the reputation you've worked so hard to build."
Old Duan's black robes fluttered in the absence of wind. "If you really are an organization that doesn't care about the rules when doing business, then this old man will leave the Sky Auction now and call upon all demonic cultivators in the Small Celestial Realm to boycott the untrustworthy Darknorth Formation!"
Zhao Xueer and all the higher-ups of the Darknorth Formation turned green. They hadn't expected that the old devil Duan Xiong would stand up for them, and with such a strong reaction!
What was going on?
Wasn't this old devil never meddling in other people's business?
"Senior …"
Zhao Xueer's forehead was dripping with sweat.
"Senior? Humph! If you really think I'm a senior, then listen to me. While the Sky Auction is still going on, don't break the rules and harass guests who can't be found suspicious. If others are lucky, you should accept it. Once the auction is over, however you want to investigate, you can ask him to help you adjust the rules until you find out the truth. "
Duan Xiong said coldly.
"This …"
While Zhao Xueer was still hesitating, Chu Chen suddenly took the "half-chaos treasure" Heavenly Armillary Sash from her hand.
Stroking the yellow treasure in his hand, he nodded. "That's right. Since it's a treasure I've drawn, it's right to hand it over to me."
Zhao Xueer, holding the empty tray, opened her mouth slightly. She wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say. She just stood there, stunned.
After Chu Chen slowly put the Everlasting Heavenly Armillary Sash into his storage ring, he gestured for her to leave. "Miss Xue 'er, the Sky Auction is still going on. Don't waste any more time here. I've already accepted the treasure you've brought. Please go back."
Zhao Xueer could only grit her teeth and turn around to leave. But after taking a few steps, she turned back with a frosty expression. "After the Sky Auction is over, we'll have a good talk with young master Chu. At that time, no matter what kind of senior or expert he is, our Darknorth will definitely not back down."
After the little loli left, flustered and exasperated, the Red Treasure Pool's lottery began again.
The cultivators didn't care so much. They first used up their treasured talismans, so as to avoid Chu Chen getting all the good things.
Among everyone, the one with the deepest anger in his eyes was Ouyang Tuo, sitting in the front row. He didn't expect that the Darknorth Formation Breaking Team would be able to make this lowly Ling Xi kid temporarily retreat.
However, with a peerless old devil like Duan Xiong speaking up for this kid, he couldn't rashly make things difficult for him, so as to avoid angering that old devil.
The cultivators used up their treasured talismans before Chu Chen could draw another treasure. For a moment, the whole place was filled with dazzling red light.
The whole place was dyed in blood red.
At this time, Chu Chen slowly took out his last Red Treasure Talisman.
