"Senior, didn't you say you won't be participating in the auction?" The shop assistant could not help but mock the arrogant black fellow.
"I'm afraid you're playing tricks. Since Cloudseal Sect's master ancestor isn't afraid, I'll come in." The black fellow did not hold back at all and walked straight to the auction site.
Coward! The shop assistant looked at the fellow in disdain and asked, "Senior, you're so calm even in front of Great Cultivator Cao Guang. You must be from a prestigious sect, right?"
"Of course." Ye Kong was not modest. He was indeed from a prestigious sect, Cloudseal Sect.
"Oh." The shop assistant nodded. No wonder this black fellow was so arrogant.
As they walked in front, Cao Guang and the rest conversed softly behind them.
Cao Junfeng said, "Grandpa, he clearly mocked you just now."
Cao Guang reprimanded in a low voice, "Don't cause trouble. Didn't you see that black fellow standing in front of me and talking fluently?" After letting his grandson think for a moment, Cao Guang continued, "Ordinary minor Qi Refinement cultivators tremble in front of me and don't even dare to raise their heads. Do you see any fear in this person? I don't think so. Therefore, if you want to roam the Jianghu in the future, you have to learn how to judge people. There must be a reason for such an arrogant person to be so arrogant. Either he has the backing of a powerful sect or he has an extremely powerful master. "
"Oh, so that's how it is." Cao Junfeng looked at the black egg walking in front of him with a different meaning in his eyes.
Cao Guang continued, "I'm not afraid of him. Even if he's a core disciple of Spiritual Medicine Mountain, I won't be afraid. However, you must know that Cangnan will be in trouble soon. It's best not to affect the unity between the sects during this period. "
Cao Junfeng nodded and asked, "Grandpa, I can tell that something's wrong too. The Yi Family's purchase of talismans from our Cloudseal Sect has doubled … I wonder what's going to happen?"
Cao Guang shook his head and smiled. "I don't know the specifics. We'll know when the time comes. Focus on improving your strength and stop pestering that Junior Sister Jiang!"
Cao Junfeng said gloomily, "Grandpa, I didn't pester her … It's just that aunt is too much, she, she, she …"
"Cut the crap!" Cao Guang shouted coldly, interrupting his grandson's words. He couldn't do anything about his daughter. However, there were some things that couldn't be said in front of outsiders. It would be very embarrassing if it was spread out.
When Ye Kong walked into the auction hall, he found that the place was quite big. It was like a small theatre and quite a few cultivators were already seated inside.
What puzzled Ye Kong was that apart from a few overbearing and powerful cultivators, the other cultivators were all wearing black cloaks that covered their entire bodies. Once they wore the black cloaks, others would be unable to use the Heaven's Eye Technique, making others unable to see through their cultivation.
"Hey, why are most of the cultivators wearing cloaks?" Ye Kong found a seat near the back and asked the shop assistant in confusion.
Oh no, I've been made to forget by you, you arrogant brat. The shop assistant shivered and said embarrassedly, "Senior, I've forgotten. Normally, cultivators below the Core Formation realm have to wear a black cloak before they enter. This black cloak not only covers their face, but it also prevents others from seeing through their cultivation level. Even if they bid for something valuable, others wouldn't know who they are and wouldn't dare to rob them. "
When Ye Kong heard this, he immediately became furious. "Damn, do you think I'm Ancestor Yuanying? I'm just a small Aura Refining cultivator. If I don't wear a black cloak, wouldn't I attract those high-level cultivators to gang up on me and rob me? "
The shop assistant lowered his head and thought to himself, 'You're too arrogant. I thought you weren't afraid of death.'
"I'll go get it for you right now." The shop assistant wanted to run away.
"Come back!" Ye Kong shouted in a low voice. F * ck, if he went to get a black cloak now, wouldn't that mean he was afraid? That way, he would die even faster! Since everyone saw him just now, he might as well be a bit more high-profile. At worst, he wouldn't bid for anything good today. In any case, his goal was only the Snake Saliva Grass.
"Go get me a few ice berries. Don't tell me you don't have any, I know you guys have a lot."
The shop assistant also knew he was wrong today. This small mistake could very well cause this small cultivator to be killed. So he didn't ask any questions or ask for spirit stones. He ran out and eagerly brought back a small plate with a few ice berries and some fruits Ye Kong hadn't seen before.
"Slurp!" Ye Kong shamelessly took a big bite of the ice berry. The juice flowed all over his hand, and the shop assistant hurriedly brought him a towel.
The other cultivators were attracted by this scene and turned their heads to look. Even Ancestor Yuanying only got a cup of spirit tea. How could he be as arrogant as this brat? Most importantly, the Yi Clan's shop assistant was so cooperative, treating him like an ancestor.
"Look," Cao Guang called out to Cao Junfeng and glanced in Ye Kong's direction. His meaning was self-evident. I told you, this brat has a powerful background. If he was an ordinary person, even a Core Formation Ancestor wouldn't have the guts to chew on ice berries here.
"Martial Uncle Cao, you're really insightful. I'm impressed."
"Yes, yes, we really didn't know this brat had such a background." The group of disciples hurriedly flattered Cao Guang.
The other cultivators who participated in the auction also discussed among themselves.
"Could this black guy be someone from the Yi Clan's shop? Look, the shop assistant just left and Manager Gao is bowing and scraping over. "
"I think so. Otherwise, why would a seventh-level Qi Refinement cultivator like him be treated so well?"
"Look, even the Cloud Talisman Sect's management ancestor is in awe of him. Look at Cao Guang and the others' gazes."
"Maybe he's a disciple of an immortal from the upper realm!"
Fine, Ye Kong, an outer disciple who had just joined the Cloud Talisman Sect, was already treated as a disciple of an immortal from the upper realm. Everyone looked at him with awe and jealousy … Damn it, this guy is so black-hearted, yet an immortal from the upper realm took a liking to him. Why didn't anyone take a liking to me?
With Ye Kong's behavior, naturally no one dared to offend him. Even if he won something valuable, no one would rob him.
However, among the crowd of cultivators, there was one who looked coldly at Ye Kong through the holes in his cloak.
Hmph, brat, I didn't expect to see you here! No matter where you came from, you're dead!
The shop assistant left and Gao Yuanhang arrived. It was obvious why he was here. He wanted to ask about the three-thousand-year-old Cloudmist Ganoderma and find out about this brat's sect. Even Gao Yuanhang, who had seen countless people, suspected that this brat was an immortal's disciple.
Unfortunately, Gao Yuanhang did not achieve either of his goals. Ye Kong did not lack spirit stones and would not sell the Cloudmist Ganoderma. As for his sect, he did not dare to say it even if he wanted to.
While Gao Yuanhang was feeling helpless, the auction began.
