Northmoon Cold Autumn
The Yan mountain auction centre was very large. The first floor was divided into many regions, basically selling items of relatively low quality, such as low grade hollow pills. Moreover, most of them were healing hollow pills. Hollow pills that could increase cultivation were basically all sold on the second floor. The first floor was bustling with demons and demonic beings, bustling with activity. Reaching the second floor, it immediately became much quieter. Further up, there were fewer and fewer people, and their cultivations became stronger and stronger. Ning Qi made his way to the fourth floor unobstructed. The demons on this floor were basically all demon masters on the same level as Zi Qingyue.
As soon as Ning Qi entered the hall on the fourth floor, the demons nearby all looked towards him. Their eyes revealed a sliver of respect and fear.
A few days ago, when Ning Qi defeated young master Yang Gou, there were at least a thousand demons from the various alliances present! The news had already spread through Yan mountain city a long time ago.
To be able to defeat a prodigy who was a half-step demon human like Yang Gou, he could basically roam unhindered among the younger generation of Yan mountain city.
"Young master North Profound, what a coincidence."
A female demon walked over to Ning Qi with a smile.
"Yeah."
Ning Qi glanced past Jia Lan indifferently and could not help but frown. "Go take a bath when you have time."
With that, he walked past Jia Lan.
When Jia Lan heard that, her face immediately darkened. Seeing this, many of the female demons present could not help but giggle, looking at Jia Lan with schadenfreude.
"You damned bastard, I'll let you run wild for a few more days. Hmph, you've offended young master Yang Gou, so why don't you leave Yan mountain city immediately? There'll be a day when you suffer!"
Jia Lan felt like she had been humiliated by Ning Qi. Her eyes were filled with fury as she stared at Ning Qi's back coldly.
"Stop!"
A cold call rang out from behind Ning Qi.
"It's Northmoon Cold Autumn! Why has she come? Looks like she's here to stand up for Yang Gou? "
"There's going to be a show to watch. Northmoon Cold Autumn is the most favoured prodigy of the Northmoon clan, one of sir Northmoon's favourite daughters. If she really wants to stand up for Yang Gou, the Northern Profound Demon race might not be able to get off easy."
The one who shouted coldly was a female demon. She didn't look old, and her skin was snow-white. If it weren't for her red pupils, she would look no different from a human.
When Jia Lan saw Northmoon Lengqiu, a sliver of surprise and joy immediately appeared in her eyes. Which demon in Yan Mountain city did not know about the engagement between Northmoon Lengqiu and Yang Gou? Half a year later would be the day of their wedding, and with Northmoon Lengqiu's temper, he was renowned for being protective of his people. He would definitely avenge Yang Gou today!
"You'll be fine if you get hooked, but if you touch a single hair on Northmoon Lengqiu today, the Northmoon family will definitely suppress you! Let's see what you can do! "
Jia Lan looked at Ning Qi mockingly and thought to himself.
"What's up?"
Ning Qi turned around and looked at Northmoon Lengqiu indifferently.
"Brother Yanggou's injuries were caused by you?"
Northmoon Lengqiu looked at Ning Qi with a cold expression.
"It should be, if he hasn't fought with anyone else in the past few days."
Ning Qi smiled.
"Brother Yang Gou has already entered seclusion. How can he fight with others? Do you know that we were supposed to get married half a year later? "
Northmoon Lengqiu's eyes were filled with fury.
"Oh …"
Ning Qi smiled. "So what?"
"So what? How can you say something like that!? You've delayed my wedding indefinitely. Don't you feel the slightest bit guilty? "
Northmoon Lengqiu almost could not help but attack him. However, her remaining sliver of rationality told her that she might not be Ning Qi's opponent.
"You're a person with a princess syndrome."
The corner of Ning Qi's lips curled up slightly. "If it's guilt, perhaps not. Did you come looking for me just to say this? Are you done? Then I'll be leaving. "
With that, Ning Qi turned around and left. He planned on going to the fifth floor to take a look.
"You're not allowed to leave!"
Seeing how nonchalant Ning Qi was, Northmoon Lengqiu finally could not hold back her fury anymore. A streak of black light swept out from her hand, attacking Ning Qi.
Ning Qi turned around abruptly and assumed his demonic form. Demon qi surged out. At that moment, his bearing became extremely evil! An aura that far exceeded that of a half-step human demon filled the hall on the fourth floor. The demons nearby seemed to be unable to endure it, subconsciously taking a few steps back. An old man just happened to be walking down from the fifth floor. After sensing the aura, he looked at Ning Qi in surprise.
Northmoon Lengqiu looked into Ning Qi's eyes and stood there blankly. A sliver of fear gradually appeared on her face, and her body trembled slightly.
"What a terrifying aura!"
"No wonder young master Yang Gou isn't his opponent. I don't think anyone in the younger generation of Yanshan City can compare to him, unless those guys who've already reached early human demon take action. However, with their prideful personalities, they might not bully the weak like this …"
"This guy …"
Jia Lan clenched her fists tightly. Faint fear filled her eyes. Ning Qi's current appearance and aura were just too terrifying. Even though she stood so far away, she still felt her heart tremble.
"Lengqiu, what brings you here to your grandpa Lu?"
A resonant voice rang out. Everyone felt a wave of warmth wash over them, diluting the coldness from Ning Qi.
An early human demon expert, huh …
Ning Qi smiled and dispersed his demonic form. His aura returned to that of a harmless person. Only then did Northmoon Lengqiu return to his senses from the fear from before. His gaze towards Ning Qi carried a sliver of lingering fear, as well as a sliver of embarrassment and anger.
"Why would I be frightened by him!?"
Northmoon Lengqiu thought rather unwillingly.
At this moment, everyone's gazes landed on the old man. He walked between Ning Qi and Northmoon Lengqiu with a chuckle. He first smiled kindly at Ning Qi before looking at Northmoon Lengqiu.
"Grandpa Lu."
Northmoon Lengqiu's expression was still rather ugly, but she still bowed to the old man.
Even her father, a great late human demon expert, would not dare to disrespect the old man before her, as the old man's status was very high. He was the elder brother of the Demon King of Mount Supremacy, Pain, and was in charge of the auction in Yanshan City. Even her father had to show him respect.
"Lengqiu, is there some misunderstanding between you and this little brother?"
Lurriel chuckled.
Northmoon Lengqiu immediately explained her grievances. Lurriel's smile did not change. After listening, he smiled. "It's a battle, after all. There will always be winners and losers. Don't worry. Once the wedding day arrives, I'll personally call that kid Yanggou out."
"Really?"
Northmoon Lengqiu was overjoyed.
"Of course. When has grandpa Lu ever lied to you?"
Lurriel chuckled.
Northmoon Lengqiu immediately smiled happily and thanked Lurriel profusely. Afterwards, she glared viciously at Ning Qi before turning around and leaving.
"Little brother, you must be quite skilled to be able to defeat that kid Yanggou."
Lurriel smiled at Ning Qi after Northmoon Lengqiu had left.
