In the auction house, the few people sitting in the front row exchanged glances with each other. A dark and ruthless expression flashed across their eyes. Soon after, these few people once again returned their gazes to the auction stage at this moment. Their gazes were somewhat unfriendly as they looked at Lu Zhongtian on the stage. One of the old men hesitated for a moment before speaking:
"Chairman Lu, although we all know that the value of this Breaking Mirror Pill is quite high, isn't it a little too much for you to raise the price like this? These few days, we have not said much on account of the fact that it is a rank five medicinal pill. However, if you continue to raise the price like this, don't blame us for not buying it."
After the old man's voice sounded, his somewhat threatening gaze slowly swept over the crowd behind him. Sensing the cold gaze of the old man, the faces of the people who were originally planning to raise the price immediately revealed a fearful expression. Immediately, they became silent. Although the rules of the auction house did not allow anyone to use any threatening methods here, they were after all experts at the level of King Yuan. Naturally, no one could stop them from doing whatever they wanted to do.
After which, the old man once again returned his gaze to the auction stage with a cold smile. He smiled as he looked at Lu Zhongtian, whose expression had darkened. There was no fear in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, I am only following the arrangement of the customer with this price. If everyone is willing, you can bid for it. If not, please leave this place."
Lu Zhongtian naturally understood the meaning behind the words of these people. They did not wish to lower the auction price of the medicinal pill and take away the medicinal pill at a low price. The threatening gaze earlier was directed at the auctioneers as well as him.
It was likely that if he was unwilling to lower the price, this fellow would influence the wishes of the people behind. In this way, this medicinal pill would naturally be unable to be auctioned.
Hearing Lu Zhongtian's words, the old man below the stage immediately revealed a displeased expression. He stood up and a pair of dark old eyes stared intently at Lu Zhongtian as he coldly said:
"Lu Zhongtian, I advise you not to be too arrogant. This old man knows that you have joined that whatever 'Xiao Gate', but this is not enough to be your backing. It is merely established by a few King Yuan. If we were to really compete together, our few large clans would not be the slightest bit afraid. You better not give yourself …"
"You seem to be a little too confident in yourself."
However, it was also at this moment that a calm voice suddenly sounded out from a certain place in the auction house. Although the voice was not loud, it was enough to attract the attention of everyone present. Even Lu Zhongtian, who was on the auction stage, also looked over with a face full of suspicion. He knew that Xiao Yan was not in the sand shop, and that voice did not belong to him.
When everyone looked over, in a corner of the auction house, a man and two women slowly stood up. At a glance, the woman was undoubtedly Leng Bing Shuang. As for the middle-aged man, he was dressed in a green robe, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. His awe-inspiring gaze was fixed on the old man who had just spoken.
....... "..
Noticing the three people who stood up, the old man frowned and his heart sank. A bad premonition immediately rose in his heart.
"I am Xiao Gate, Mu Rong Hao."
After pausing for a moment, the middle-aged man slowly spoke. At the same time, a powerful aura that was comparable to a Seven Star Origin King instantly spread out from his body, causing the expressions of everyone present to change drastically. The old man's expression turned deathly pale the instant Mu Rong Hao's words sounded.
This Mu Rong Hao was the fourth brother of the Mu Rong clan. As for the woman on Leng Bing Shuang's right, she was Mu Rong Qianqian, who had already returned to the clan three years ago!
When he first heard the two words' Xiao Gate 'and then felt the majestic aura pressure from Mu Rong Hao's body, fear immediately surged in the old man's heart. He did not expect that there would be other experts from the Xiao Gate other than Lu Zhongtian. What was even more unexpected was that the person who came was actually a Seven Star Origin King!
At that moment, even the expressions of the other Origin Kings beside the old man changed. After a moment of hesitation, they quickly changed seats and put some distance between them and the old man. The old man's face could not help but twitch when he saw this. He could not help but curse inside. After looking around, he looked at Murong Hao with an awkward smile and said in an embarrassed tone, "Senior Brother Murong Hao, I'm sorry, Senior Brother Murong.
"I only spoke in a moment of anger. I did not have any intention of insulting the Xiao Gate. I hope that mister does not take offense. As for this medicinal pill …"
"The employer of this medicinal pill is the leader of the Xiao Gate."
Seeing that the old man had taken the initiative to admit defeat, Lu Zhongtian on the stage could not help but sneer. As soon as he finished speaking, the old man's retreating figure suddenly stiffened. Before he could do anything, two cold gazes suddenly shot over from behind, causing the old man's skinny body to involuntarily tremble. Cold sweat immediately gushed out from his body as he hurriedly said,
"If that's the case, then this medicinal pill … I'll take it …"
"I wonder how much mister is willing to pay?"
Lu Zhongtian laughed mockingly and said.
"Ten thousand … fifty thousand! I'll pay fifty thousand! "
As soon as the old man's voice fell, his expression changed and he hurriedly changed his words. He could not care less. Under the gaze of everyone present, he hurriedly took out all the remaining spirit stones in his Storage Ring. After taking the medicinal pill, he hurriedly left.
In front of a seven star Origin King, his initial Origin King cultivation was too weak. If the old man still dared to be tactless, he did not dare to imagine the consequences.
Seeing the old man hastily leave as if he was fleeing for his life, the other Origin Kings present subconsciously exchanged glances with each other. From the corner of their eyes, they would occasionally glance at Murong Hao behind them. They were extremely nervous in their hearts, as if they were afraid that this fellow would target them again.
Fortunately, this matter was settled and the auction was officially over. Murong Hao and the rest also left together. Only then did the cold sweat that had gathered on their foreheads fall. At the same time, they all breathed a sigh of relief. They resentfully forgot about Lu Zhongtian, who was looking at them with a smile on his face, and quickly left.
"Fourth uncle, why didn't you directly end that old bastard just now. He actually dared to look down on the Xiao Gate."
On the street, Murong Hao's group of three slowly walked. After crossing the sand river, it was time to head to Yan City. At that time, he would be able to meet the master of the Xiao Gate.
"Haha, girl, why is your temper becoming more and more irritable? Using violence to curb violence is a method to deal with enemies. However, that person merely spoke rudely to the Xiao Gate. I don't have any reason to do anything to him. Now is the time for the Xiao Gate to establish its prestige in the Western Region. We absolutely cannot let such a small matter affect the overall situation."
Hearing this, Murong Hao curled his lips and smiled. His warm hand gently shook Murong Qianqian's little head. Seeing the girl's depressed appearance, he immediately laughed out loud. After which, he led the two of them and quickly headed towards the Xiao Gate.
