At this moment, Xiao Yan and Luo Jin were seated in a VIP room within the Tianyun Auction House. The walls on all four sides were empty. A thick and heavy stone door blocked the only exit. Within the entire secret room, there were only a few pearls embedded in the wall that emitted a gentle fluorescent light, illuminating the entire room.
Due to the special construction materials of the auction house and the restrictions placed by strong people, any aura and Spiritual Perception would be restricted in this place.
Simply put, after entering this place, as long as one covered their body and face, no one would be able to recognize who they were.
Of course, all of this was under the premise that one had a certain level of strength. If a Dou Di were to enter, he would naturally be able to ignore the restrictions with his terrifying strength.
… …
At this moment, Xiao Yan's face no longer had that extremely weak appearance from before. Although his face was still a little pale, it was much better compared to his previous appearance.
Xiao Yan's figure was seated on a stone chair. At this moment, his face no longer had its usual indifferent expression. His eyebrows were slightly knit together and his eyes were flickering with a cold glint. At this moment, all of this revealed that his heart was not calm.
A nine star Half Emperor. Xiao Yan clearly knew that the old man he had come into contact with outside the auction house earlier would become another great enemy of his from today onwards.
He originally did not have the intention to stir up trouble. However, there was always someone who would make things difficult for him …
The tree wants to be still, but the wind does not stop.
"Hu …"
After violently gulping down a mouthful of rich tea, Xiao Yan let out a long breath. His eyes narrowed as he stared at the gentle light reflected from the teacup. He remained silent.
Seeing this, Luo Jin also seemed to be deep in thought as he drank the tea in his cup. Immediately, he turned his gaze and smiled at Xiao Yan.
"Brother Yan Xiao, you almost fooled me just now."
Xiao Yan frowned and smiled. He shook his head in a self-deprecating manner. He looked at Luo Jin and asked.
"That old man just now, you all call him Mu Shi. Who is he?"
Luo Jin had already expected Xiao Yan's question. Without much hesitation, he gently knit his brows and said,
"Mu Shi is a respectful name given to him by the people in the Ancient Savage City. His real name is Mu Han and he is a nine star Half Emperor. You should have sensed this earlier. With his strength, other than Old Luo, he is the strongest person in the Ancient Savage City."
Xiao Yan secretly nodded his head. A nine star Half Emperor was indeed enough to dominate the Ancient Savage City. However, there was another question in Xiao Yan's heart.
"Furthermore, apart from him, Mu Han is the only rank three formation master in the southwestern border."
"Oh?!"
Before Xiao Yan's doubt, Luo Jin's words, Luo Jin's voice was a Formation Half Half Emperor.
Once these words left his mouth, Xiao Yan's heart was immediately extremely shocked. At the same time, he no longer doubted his own judgement.
"Indeed, no wonder his Soul Power is so frightening. So that's how it is. His Soul Power has truly reached the Consolidation Realm!"
Xiao Yan frowned. The nine star Half Emperor Mu Han was not someone that the current him could deal with. No matter what, he was only a three star Half Emperor. Even if he had broken through to the four star Half Emperor realm, the gap between their strengths was not something that could be easily closed.
If he were to face Mu Han alone, Xiao Yan would not have any chance of victory. Even if his Sky Extinction Step had reached the Advanced Wind Step …
A nine star Half Emperor was definitely not something that someone like Yan Bing, who was only a hair's breadth away, could compare to.
The slightest mistake could lead to a difference of a thousand miles. This was the principle behind it.
Thinking of this, a cold glint shot out from Xiao Yan's eyes. In order to deal with him, Mo Di was willing to do anything. He even dared to use someone who could turn around and devour him at any time. It was not hard to imagine how much hatred Mo Di had for Xiao Yan.
Of course, one could not rule out the possibility that Mo Di was doing this purely for Xiao Yan's Heavenly Flame. Perhaps, killing Xiao Yan was his secondary goal.
"Mo Di … it would have been fine if you had left after the Alchemist Competition. However, you have repeatedly come to find trouble with me and insisted on making things difficult for me. Since you insist on making things difficult for me, you cannot blame me for being vicious and merciless!"
"Bang!"
After Mo Di finished speaking, the teacup in Xiao Yan's hand exploded with a 'bang' and turned into dust that scattered in all directions.
"Next, we should prepare the items for the auction. Just now, Song Gang told me that you are actually going to auction six Void Lightning Pool Invitation. Tsk tsk, this is unprecedented!"
Feeling that the atmosphere in the room was becoming more and more oppressive, Luo Jin immediately changed the topic and teased Xiao Yan.
"Haha, I was just lucky."
Xiao Yan understood Luo Jin's intention and immediately smiled. With a flip of his hand, a Storage Ring that he had prepared beforehand appeared in his palm.
"The items in this Storage Ring are all the items that I will be auctioning this time. Although I did not hand them over to the auction house beforehand, I believe that with their ability, they will be able to determine the quality and value with a single glance."
Luo Jin nodded slightly. In his heart, he was a little surprised by Xiao Yan's high level of caution. Before knowing the relationship between Song Gang and Luo Jin, Xiao Yan was actually able to guard against strangers to such an extent. Compared to Luo Jin, Xiao Yan was indeed much more mature.
To be able to stand out among so many cultivators at such a young age, his experience was naturally extraordinary. This level of caution was also reasonable.
After all, before truly knowing the other party's background, no matter how sincere the other party's attitude was, he absolutely could not easily trust them. Otherwise, it was very likely that this would bring about an irreversible disaster.
…
"Ka ka ka ka …"
As the two of them spoke, the heavy stone door was opened. The two of them looked over and saw that Song Gang and Elder Xuan had already appeared at the entrance of the secret room.
"Is it done?"
Xiao Yan casually asked.
The auction this time had attracted quite a number of factions. Even the number of Half-step Emperors was unimaginable. Therefore, after Xiao Yan and the others entered the auction house, Elder Xuan and Song Gang went to the auction house to maintain order. This time, they were gone for two hours.
"Yes, we finally settled those fellows down. Before they sat down, they were anxiously clamoring to see the Void Lightning Reservoir Invitation. Fortunately, the two of us old fellows were here. After moving around a little with them, they became obedient."
Hearing Song Gang's somewhat awkward words, Xiao Yan frowned slightly. Luo Jin, who knew Song Gang's character, helplessly shook his head. Elder Xuan also curled his lips, expressing his helplessness.
When Xiao Yan saw their reactions, he quickly understood in his heart. This so-called "moving around a little" probably meant a lot of fighting.
"Hehe …"
Seeing their helpless expressions, Song Gang awkwardly smiled. Then, his expression became serious and he said,
"But now, according to the time, the originally scheduled auction time has already passed. I'm afraid that we don't have time to make any more preparations."
In this regard, Xiao Yan secretly curled his lips in his heart. Time has passed … I'm afraid that a large part of this time has been consumed by your fighting!
"It's fine. I've already prepared the items here. I've also listed the auction order. When the time comes, we just need to let the auction house's people appraise it on the spot and directly auction it."
Hearing this, the few of them nodded. Xiao Yan's actions had saved a lot of trouble for their auction house. In this way, the auction process did not need to be delayed.
Xiao Yan casually took out the storage ring and handed it to Song Gang. Because Song Gang had just received this storage ring, he did not know how many items Xiao Yan wanted to auction in it. Therefore, he naturally checked it.
But when Song Gang checked it, a shocked expression suddenly appeared on his face. The muscles at the corner of his mouth could not help but twitch violently.
Under his inspection, there were all kinds of items in this storage ring. In total, there were no less than a hundred kinds of items. Moreover, combined with the quantity of each item, the value of these items would be at least a few million spirit coins if the auction was really completed!
Moreover, the preciousness of these items surprised Song Gang. He did not expect Xiao Yan to take out so many heavenly treasures. Even he had only heard of some of the items but had never seen them. Now that he had seen them, Song Gang could not help but feel a little moved in his heart.
These things could really be said to be extravagant!
It was hard to imagine that Xiao Yan would take out these items to auction. If these were items that Xiao Yan did not need, it would be fine. But if these were items that he did not want, how could he imagine?
