Sun Moon City!
Another day had passed!
After a day of silence, Sun Moon City finally regained some of its former liveliness and prosperity. Although there weren't as many people and shops on the streets as before, it was almost half of what it used to be.
The Water Cloud Holy Land was destroyed, but their lives still had to go on, didn't they? Could it be that they couldn't live because of the destruction of the Water Cloud Holy Land? Moreover, Xiao Fan was nowhere to be seen after the incident. It was as if he had disappeared, and no one knew where he had gone. Therefore, the deterrent force formed after the incident had weakened a lot. Many people in the city had temporarily regained their peace and resumed their normal lives!
As for the various forces, they had gone through countless private meetings in the two nights and one day after the destruction of the Water Cloud Holy Land. They had formed a relatively stable alliance!
There was no other way. Xiao Fan was too strong. If he could destroy the Water Cloud Holy Land, he could also destroy the various forces' sub-sects in Sun Moon City. Moreover, because of the incident at the Holy Moon Tower, the various forces' Laozu had joined forces to attack Mo Xiao. Therefore, it was hard to say whether Xiao Fan would suddenly go into a murderous rage and directly kill them all!
Therefore, in order to survive, they constantly sent people to their main sects to ask for help. At the same time, they also formed an alliance that supported each other. It would be fine if Xiao Fan didn't attack them. However, if he attacked them, they wouldn't be powerless to resist and be slaughtered by Xiao Fan!
In addition, the best way to avoid Xiao Fan's Sword of Damocles was to leave Sun Moon City. Then, they would be completely safe. However, they couldn't leave.
This was because the various forces' Laozu had returned. After they learned about the Water Cloud Holy Land, they issued orders one after another to forbid their disciples and elders from leaving the city. Everyone had to stay in the city and protect the various forces' assets in Sun Moon City. They had to observe Xiao Fan's actions at all times so that they could report to the higher-ups in a timely manner. Those who disobeyed the orders would be executed without question!
Therefore, they had no other choice but to ask for help from outside and form an alliance. They could only resign themselves to fate and helplessly wait for the next step that no one knew about!
.....
At this moment, in the most prosperous place in the city center, the Ling Tian Auction House!
The Ling Tian Auction House was the auction house under the control of the Four Directions Merchant Group. It was the number one auction house in Sun Moon City, or rather, in the entire Tianqi County. The auction house had all sorts of rare treasures and cultivation resources. Every time the auction was held, not only would people from all over the Tianqi County attend, even people from the neighboring counties would flock to the auction house due to its reputation. The population of Sun Moon City would explosively increase by more than 30% on a single day!
Today was the day of the Four Corner Trading Group's once-in-a-decade grand auction. Although Xiao Fan had destroyed the Water Cloud Holy Ground the day before yesterday, the auction was still held as scheduled!
Of course, it wasn't that the Four Corner Trading Group didn't think of postponing the auction. They originally planned to wait for the various Laozu forces to surround Sun Moon City two days later to deal with Xiao Fan first. However, the auction this time was the grand auction of the Four Corner Trading Group. It was much grander than an ordinary auction.
The relevant news had already been released half a year ago. Today, not only had the people from all over the Tianqi County arrived, but the people from the other counties near the Tianqi County had also arrived. Moreover, the number of people who had arrived far exceeded the previous years. Therefore, in the face of the enormous pressure brought about by so many people, the Four Directions Merchant Group had no choice but to make a long-distance call to consult the four old ancestors. After obtaining their approval, they could only brace themselves and proceed according to the plan and procedures as usual!
As for what would happen in the end, no one could guarantee that Xiao Fan, whose whereabouts were unknown, wouldn't suddenly jump out and cause trouble. They could only resign themselves to fate.
The grand auction was about to begin, and guests began to enter continuously!
At the eastern entrance!
"Everyone, please!" Currently, the Four Corner Trading Group's thirty-six Grand Elders, Grand Elder Ying, Grand Elder Bao, and Grand Elder Que, were guarding Sun Moon City. They were currently standing at the eastern entrance of the Ling Tian Auction House with forced smiles on their faces as they welcomed the distinguished guests who were going to participate in the grand auction.
The Ling Tian Auction House had a total of four entrances: north, south, east, west, and south. The other three entrances were for ordinary guests, while the east entrance was for VIPs with extraordinary statuses and backgrounds. Elder Ying, Elder Bao, and Elder Que had personally arrived to welcome them.
The Imperial Legion, the Windward Formation Guild, the Night Formation Guild, the Zhao Family, the Lu Family, the Lingyun Sect … all the various forces had arrived. After greeting Grand Elder Ying, Grand Elder Bao, and Grand Elder Que at the entrance, they planned to enter. However, at this moment, a cheerful voice sounded from behind them.
"Junior Yu Ziqiu greets the various Elders!" An elegant and beautiful youth stood behind everyone with a group of guards as he spoke with a chuckle.
Hearing this elegant and beautiful youth, Grand Elder Ying, Grand Elder Bao, and Grand Elder Que, as well as the various forces in the Tianqi County, all turned around and looked at him. Their pupils unconsciously shrank!
Yu Ziqiu, the Young Master of the Golden Dawn Holy Land of the Northern Spiritual County!
There were a total of four counties around the Tianqi County, and the Northern Spiritual County was one of them. Within the Northern Spiritual County, the Golden Dawn Holy Land was the same as the Jade Cauldron Spirit Sect in the Southern Yue County. They had both unified and become the overlord of the county!
However, there were some differences between the Golden Dawn Holy Land and the Jade Cauldron Spirit Sect. The Jade Cauldron Spirit Sect had unified the Southern Yue County for hundreds of years, and its position was incomparably stable. On the other hand, the Golden Dawn Holy Land had only unified the Northern Spiritual County for two years. Although they had basically eliminated all the opposing forces in the county, there were still remnants of the opposing forces in the county. Therefore, the Golden Dawn Holy Land's rule over the Northern Spiritual County was not very stable!
Furthermore, because the Golden Dawn Holy Land had expended too much when unifying the Northern Spiritual County, the Golden Dawn Holy Land was currently very weak. If not for the fact that the Golden Dawn Holy Land still had a trump card in their hands, the various forces in the Tianqi County would have planned to join forces and attack the Golden Dawn Holy Land to seize cultivation resources and cultivation territories!
This time, because of the Four Directions Business Group's grand auction, the Golden Dawn Holy Land had also sent their Young Lord, Yu Ziqiu!
"I don't dare, I really don't dare. For Young Lord Yu to personally come to our Four Directions Business Group is the honor of our Four Directions Business Group!" Grand Elder Ying had a smile on his face as he stepped forward and spoke to the elegant and beautiful youth, Yu Ziqiu.
