Outside the auction hall, at this moment, the word 'disbelief' was written all over the faces of the people present. Every single one of them had dumbstruck expressions with their mouths wide open.
None of the people present had anticipated the scene before them. The guesses in their hearts were actually overturned by this black-gowned young man.
"Cough cough …"
The large man let out a couple of intense coughs. It was a long while later before he climbed up from the ground with the help of the few people behind him. Immediately, a pair of large round eyes instantly focused on Xiao Yan.
At this moment, the disdainful expression in the burly man's eyes had already disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by shock and reverence from the bottom of his heart.
He had never imagined that this seemingly frail black-gowned young man before him would possess such frightening physical strength.
It was no wonder that he would be treated in such a manner by Fang Qian!
"Little brother, your strength is extraordinary. This lowly one admires you. As for what happened earlier, this lowly one will apologize to little brother. I hope that you will not take it to heart."
After standing up, the burly man respectfully bowed to Xiao Yan with his hands clasped together. This was the respect one would have toward an expert. At the same time, it also displayed the reverence he had toward Xiao Yan.
Even though the exchange of blows earlier was hasty and short, the burly man was still able to tell that the Xiao Yan before him possessed strength that greatly surpassed his own. Even though the latter's cultivation appeared to only be that of a six star Half Martial Emperor, it was still insufficient to fully describe the strength that he possessed.
This was something that had been vividly displayed by the collision between the two of them earlier.
Furthermore, judging from the power that had erupted from Xiao Yan's palm strike earlier, it was clear that Xiao Yan had held back when he unleashed his attack. Else, this burly man would not have been sent flying with only a single blow.
Seeing the burly man displaying such a respectful attitude toward Xiao Yan, the four people behind the burly man all looked to one another. Then, without the slightest hesitation, they also bowed to Xiao Yan with their hands clasped together.
From this, it could be seen that the relationship between these five people was extremely close. Else, it would not have been possible for the four people behind the burly man to react in unison because of the actions of the burly man alone.
Seeing the five people before him displaying such a respectful attitude toward him, Xiao Yan involuntarily revealed an astonished expression. This was especially true for the four people behind the burly man. In this chaotic continent, to be able to have brothers who had shared weal and woe with him was truly something worthy of admiration.
"Haha, there is no need to be so courteous. This lowly one has merely been unable to exercise for a long time. that is why I wanted to give this friend here a try. If I am injured in any way, please forgive me."
This attitude of the five of them also caused Xiao Yan to have a good impression of them in his heart. He waved his sleeves while he spoke and an invisible, majestic Spiritual Strength swiftly swept out. Immediately, it gently lifted the five people who were bowing.
"This is … soul force!"
. This action of Xiao Yan caused the hearts of the five people to solidify slightly. The five of them lowered their heads and exchanged glances with one another. All of them saw surprise in the other party's eyes.
The thing that caused them to be surprised was not that Xiao Yan had used Spiritual Strength. Instead, it was that this Spiritual Strength was so strong that even they could feel an invisible pressure from it.
"Don't tell me that you are an array master or an alchemist?"
The five of them straightened their bodies. The burly man, who was the leader, looked at Xiao Yan with eyes that were filled with astonishment. His tone was solemn as he asked.
Xiao Yan's physical strength was already sufficient to cause them to have a good impression of him. However, if he was also a powerful alchemist or a formation master, he would really have to be described as' defying the heavens'!
"Haha, this mister is an alchemist. Moreover, he is a rank three alchemist. The reason why he does not need to queue is actually because he was invited by the few elite Dou Di in the auction house. However.. Haha..."
At this moment, Fang Qian, who had recovered from his shock, slowly took a step forward. He looked at the burly man with a smile on his face. A smile surfaced in his turbid old eyes as he said.
When Fang Qian's words came out, the five people's bodies suddenly turned violently on the spot. They quickly rose to their feet. This was especially so for the burly man who was the leader. His heart was filled with regret.
He had actually stopped the person who was invited by the elite Dou Di and had even fought with him. At this moment, it was likely that the few elite Dou Di had already sensed all of this. Once they were dissatisfied with him, wouldn't he and the brothers behind him be in danger …
The burly man felt a wave of sadness in his heart when he thought of how he had sent his brothers into danger because of a moment of rashness. It was as though death was already in front of them and their doomsday was not far away.
"Haha, relax. They will not do anything to you. It is just a small exchange of pointers. It is nothing much. Moreover, I think that the current them will not only not be dissatisfied with you, but will instead feel extremely satisfied."
Xiao Yan appeared to have guessed the burly man's thoughts as he smiled faintly. After he finished speaking, Xiao Yan once again turned around. His dark black eyes looked at the auction house in front of him. A light flashed deep within his eyes as though he had seen something.
At the same time, within the few private rooms in the auction house, a few old men with strong auras could not help but frown slightly.
"This little fellow does not appear to be a good person. Physical strength, Dou Qi, alchemist skills. He is actually able to train these three areas to such an extent at the same time. Just who is this little fellow?"
In a somewhat dim and quiet private room, an old man whose entire body was wrapped in a black robe revealed a pair of blade-like sharp eyes. A sharp glint flashed deep within his dark eyes. His old eyes narrowed as he softly muttered.
At the same time, in another private room, a square-faced middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe narrowed his eyes. He appeared to be thinking about something in his heart.
"Black robed young man, young lady in the prime of her youth. It seems that the people who injured my son are these two … that man is Xiao Yan. As for that woman, it is not important …"
The middle-aged man softly muttered in his mouth. Immediately, he gently lifted his hand and randomly curled his finger. The next moment, the empty space beside the middle-aged man immediately became distorted. A black robed person whose face could not be seen clearly bowed and half knelt beside the middle-aged man.
"Clan leader!"
"Yes, go and investigate. When did these two people arrive in Yan City and from which direction did they enter. Investigate carefully. If they are … humph!"
At the end of his words, an uncontrollable killing intent suddenly surged into the middle-aged man's silver eyes. Soon after, the black robed person beside the middle-aged man also respectfully cried out before disappearing from the private room.
In the outside world, Xiao Yan slowly withdrew his gaze and randomly swept it across Murong Qianqian, whose pretty face was still in a daze. He curled his lips and said:
"Why are you in a daze. Aren't you in a hurry to enter? Let's go."
After saying these words, the young lady recovered her senses. Xiao Yan's gaze once again turned towards Fang Qian. He smiled and said:
"Manager Fang, please lead the way."
"Haha, mister, please enter!"
Hearing this, Fang Qian did not stand on ceremony and made a 'please' gesture towards Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan nodded and smiled. Under the respectful and envious gazes of the crowd behind them, the three of them slowly disappeared from the dimly lit auction house.
