"The Mu Clan admits defeat. Out of all the items up for auction, you can pick any three items you want. Consider it an apology from the Mu Clan."
Mu Feng's face was full of disbelief. He could not believe that the ancestor's order was to admit defeat to Ling Xian.
After his voice trailed off, everyone froze. They also found it hard to believe that the Mu Clan would lower their heads to a person.
Even though this person was a completion leveled powerhouse, everyone still found it hard to believe. Remember that the Mu Clan was one of the controlling forces in the City of Sin for many years. Even though they only had one completion leveled powerhouse, their background was extremely deep!
Nobody could guarantee that the Mu Clan had been dominating the City of Sin for so many years and they didn't have any killer weapons!
Yet at this moment, the Mu Clan had made such a statement. This meant they were lowering their heads to Ling Xian. Why wouldn't everyone be shocked?
Don't forget, Ling Xian first ignored the Mu Clan's rules and barged into the auction house. After that, in a domineering manner, he smashed the auction house and beat the Mu Jia's Patriarch until his head was bleeding. What was this equivalent to?
This was the same as slapping the Mu Clan in the face. And it was a merciless slap!
Despite this, the Mu Clan still lowered their heads to Ling Xian and promised him that he could pick any three items he wanted. How unbelievable was this?
It was unimaginable!
Everyone's jaws dropped and they felt like their brains weren't enough to process this. They couldn't understand why the Mu Clan, one of the three controlling forces, would lower their heads in front of everyone.
"Oh my god, this is too unbelievable. The Mu Clan, who has always been arrogant, after being slapped in the face by someone, not only did they not make a move, but they are also lowering their heads? "
"This is unbelievable. Is this the same Mu Clan that threatened to kill the entire Mu Clan just because someone insulted them? How come they have no temper now? "
"Originally, the Mu Clan had already lost face when this person showed up in such a dominating manner. Now that they are giving in, the Mu Clan has lost even more face. "
"At the end of the day, isn't it because the opponent is a completion leveled powerhouse? If this was anyone else, the Mu Clan would've rushed up and chopped them into pieces. I think the Mu Clan is giving in because they are afraid of this completion leveled powerhouse. "
Everyone discussed. After much thought, there was only one answer that could explain why the Mu Clan was willing to lower their heads.
Ling Xian was too strong!
Or perhaps, the Mu Clan wasn't sure of Ling Xian's capabilities and didn't want to be his enemy!
Even though this was an acceptable answer, no one present could think of anything else other than this.
If it wasn't for the fact that the opponent was too strong, why would the Mu Clan lower their heads after being slapped in the face, causing them to lose all face?
Ling Xian showed up and beat up the Mu Clan Leader until his head was bleeding. This was a huge humiliation. Even so, the Mu Clan was willing to admit defeat and even took out three treasures to apologize to him.
This was enough to prove one thing. The Mu Clan would rather swallow their humiliation than make Ling Xian their enemy!
Of course, this was only the Mu Clan's attitude towards this matter. As for whether or not they were willing to swallow the humiliation, no one knew.
"What a good Mu Clan, they do have some courage."
Shock flashed across Ling Xian's eyes. He didn't think the Mu Clan would swallow their humiliation and apologize.
Originally, he planned to use this as a pretext to make a fuss. As long as the Mu Clan ancestor showed up, he could kill him right away and end what happened. But now, the Mu Clan was apologizing. From certain angles, this was the same as a warrior cutting off his arm.
Therefore, if Ling Xian didn't let it go, then he would appear petty.
"The Mu Clan ancestor is quite a character."
Ling Xian's heart was moving like electricity as he analyzed the hidden reasons behind this, "If I'm not wrong, the Mu Clan ancestor is certain that I am poisoned by the Poisonous Dragon Scorpion and is waiting for me to lose all my cultivation so he can take me down without much effort. Or, he isn't sure of my capabilities and didn't plan well enough, so he decided to take a step back. "
"But if it's either of these, the situation before me makes it hard for me to continue acting out. After all, the Mu Clan has already lowered their heads in front of everyone. If I don't forgive them, then I will lose my composure. "
Ling Xian softly sighed, somewhat admiring the Mu Clan ancestor's courage and decisiveness.
After all, not everyone has the courage to make themselves lose face and be humiliated.
However, he wasn't worried that the Mu Clan ancestor would play some tricks. His opponent had Zhang Liang's plan, but he did too.
"Mu Clan ancestor, you are planning to hide and find out more about me. Do you think I don't have the same intention?" Ling Xian revealed a sarcastic smile. Though he wasn't afraid of any completion leveled cultivator, the enemy he was facing this time wasn't a single cultivator.
It was a controlling force that has dominated the City of Sin for many years!
To know that the reason why a controlling force is called a controlling force, other than having a large number of people, it also has a lot of resources. To a controlling force, these two words refer to hidden powerhouses, large amounts of wealth, and weapons that can allow one to defeat those with higher cultivation levels.
The Mu Clan, for example, has dominated the City of Sin for many years. How could they not have resources? Perhaps they have some kind of powerful weapon!
Therefore, Ling Xian never planned on fighting the Mu Clan. He merely wanted to teach the Mu Clan a lesson first. It wouldn't be too late to make a move after he finds out more about this controlling force.
Now that the Mu Clan had decided to temporarily hide, it was exactly what he wanted.
"Not only did I vent out my anger, but I also acquired three treasures. This trip was worth it."
Ling Xian silently chuckled. The Mu Clan had lowered their heads to him in front of everyone. This was something they had lost face for. Naturally, his anger evaporated.
When he thought about the unknown treasures he was about to acquire, his eyes flashed with anticipation. He smiled, "Mu Clan Leader, since you are willing to let me pick three treasures, then I will accept your apology."
"Thank you for your generosity." Mu Feng paid his respect to Ling Xian, his heart full of bitterness.
The Mu Clan was the target of humiliation, yet he had to smile and thank Ling Xian for his generosity. Why wouldn't he feel bitter?
He had forgotten that if the Mu Clan didn't provoke him, Ling Xian wouldn't be so overbearing.
"There is no need for thanks. I am more interested in those three treasures. Let's start the auction." Ling Xian brandished his hand. Then, he remembered something and threatened, "Mu Clan Leader, don't use shoddy goods. Or else don't blame me for being merciless."
Mu Feng's body quivered. He knew what Ling Xian was worried about and quickly promised, "Do not worry. These are definitely the items that should be auctioned. I will not replace them with shoddy ones."
Reality was, he really wanted to replace the items with shoddy ones. However, the Mu Clan ancestor's message clearly stated that he cannot replace the items auctioned.
This confused him but he didn't dare to disobey.
"Very good. Then, Clan Leader Mu, please begin." Ling Xian's eyes flashed with anticipation. He teased, "My time is very precious."
"Yes, yes, I will start the auction now."
Mu Feng nodded and shifted his gaze towards the auction ground. Then, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Following his gaze, everyone was stunned as well.
Because there was no auction ground before them, only a pile of ruins.
