Everyone in the auction ground had stunned faces as they looked at the feather on the auction stage below. A moment ago, this thing had erupted with a powerful aura that caused most of the people present to be moved. However, it had only been a short couple of breaths. This change was a little too quick.
"This … what is going on?"
Everyone's faces were stunned as they looked at Fang Qian on the auction stage below. Everyone's faces revealed a suspicious expression. Could it be that the so-called treasure, the Man class Dou Technique, was this appearance?
At this moment, there were even quite a number of people in the auction ground who had originally planned to bid for it. They withdrew their gazes with bitter faces. At the same time, their eyes involuntarily revealed a suspicious expression as they looked at Fang Qian.
If even the first auction item was fake, the people present would no longer be able to feel assured about the subsequent auction items!
Dong Chuan, who was standing at the edge of the auction ground, also involuntarily frowned slightly in the face of the unexpected change in the auction ground. His heart felt a little troubled. If this Feng Yu were to point out this matter, it was likely that there would not be any need for the auction today to continue.
A single mistake was sufficient to cause their entire auction to be burned to the ground!
At the same time, the few elite Dou Di within the few private rooms also revealed various expressions. Some were smiles, some were surprised, and some were suspicious. In short, the unexpected change that had occurred in the auction ground at this moment caused everyone to feel uneasy.
At this moment, Xiao Yan was naturally able to clearly see the situation in the outside world through the light curtain in front of him. This included Fang Qian, who was standing on the auction stage with a stunned and embarrassed face. Xiao Yan was also able to see everything.
Seeing that the atmosphere in the auction ground had become somewhat pressurized because of him, Xiao Yan involuntarily felt a little apologetic in his heart. He knit his brows tightly and swiftly thought of a countermeasure in his heart.
No matter how one put it, everything in front of him had become like this because of him. If he continued to remain silent, this matter would eventually become a knot in Xiao Yan's heart, regardless of whether other people knew about it or not.
If he was unable to resolve this matter today, it was likely that it might even affect Xiao Yan's training in the future.
"Cough cough … that, I'm sorry. Just now, I was interested and used my Spiritual Strength to investigate the Demon Phoenix. However, I did not expect that thing to actually be unable to withstand my investigation, resulting in it becoming like this. If I have disturbed everyone, please do not take it to heart. At the very most, I am willing to give up this Dou Technique."
Suddenly, a voice that was filled with embarrassment suddenly resounded over the entire auction ground and reverberated beside everyone's ears.
Hearing this, everyone's faces immediately revealed a strange expression. They looked towards the direction of the voice, but could only see the empty sky above their heads.
At the same time, the Dou Di on the auction stage and the few Dou Di in the private rooms instantly turned their gazes to the private room that Xiao Yan was in.
Although other people were unable to see it, they knew that the voice had been transmitted from this place.
Hearing these words, a doubtful expression involuntarily flashed across the faces of the few elite Dou Di in the private room. They immediately laughed coldly and continued to be silent.
As for Fang Qian, who was currently on the stone platform, there was a look of gratitude in his turbid old eyes.
Other people might not know, but as the manager of the auction house, how could he not know that there were some special formations around the auction stage. These formations were able to block all Spiritual Perception below the rank four alchemist.
Unfortunately, although Xiao Yan was a rank three alchemist, his Spiritual Strength was not sufficient to pass through the formation. It was even more impossible for him to not be detected by these elite Dou Di. Hence, Fang Qian knew that these words of his were false the moment he heard them.
However, even though his words were fake, it would be best if he could use it to help them out of their predicament in the current situation.
"Ke ke, no wonder. So it was mister who used his Spiritual Strength to investigate."
Fang Qian cupped his hands toward the private room Xiao Yan was in. He clearly understood in his heart, but his face was filled with gratitude as he spoke with a smile.
"Huh?"
Once Fang Qian's words were spoken, everyone present immediately turned their gazes toward the private room Xiao Yan was in. Everyone's eyes were filled with doubt. They were also extremely curious about the 'mister' that Fang Qian had mentioned.
Soon after, the gazes of everyone present landed on the private room Xiao Yan was in. The empty space outside the private room suddenly became distorted. Soon after, a young man wearing a black robe slowly appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
"Hua …"
Once they saw Xiao Yan, everyone in the auction ground immediately went into an uproar. Only then did they react. At this moment, the only person in the auction ground who could cause Fang Qian to be so respectful was likely this rank three alchemist!
However, when everyone recovered and recalled the words that Xiao Yan had said earlier, numerous wolf-like eyes instantly stared at the Dou Technique scroll on the crystal pillar in front of Fang Qian.
It should be known that this Dou Technique was something that even a rank three alchemist would be interested in. Just from this point alone, it was enough to prove that this Dou Technique was not cheap. Now that Xiao Yan had taken the initiative to give it up, was this not helping the others present?
Of course, if they were to know that those words earlier were intentionally said by Xiao Yan, it was unknown just what kind of interesting expression they would have on their faces.
In the blink of an eye, he was stared at by so many people in such a manner. Even with Fang Qian's mental strength, his eyebrows could not help but twitch. After which, he once again used a grateful gaze to look at Xiao Yan's slowly disappearing figure in the sky.
"Thank you very much!"
At the edge of the auction stage, Dong Chuan also stared at Xiao Yan's disappearing figure and quietly thanked Xiao Yan in his heart.
At the same time, the atmosphere in the auction ground, which had become silent because of the unforeseen event earlier, was instantly broken by Xiao Yan's words. At this very moment, everyone in the auction ground turned their gazes toward Fang Qian.
Fang Qian had yet to state his starting bid, but the sounds of bidding had already risen and fell repeatedly. This scene also caused Fang Qian's old face to once again reveal a stunned expression.
However, compared to before, the expression on Fang Qian's face at this moment was clearly much more relaxed.
Within the private room, Xiao Yan watched the scene that was currently displayed in the auction ground. The emotions in his heart also gradually disappeared. It was as though the stone that was blocking his heart had been shattered with a bang at this moment. Even his breathing had unknowingly become much smoother.
"Ke ke, everyone, the auction ground has its own order. Everyone seated, please do not be agitated. Next, our first auction item will officially be auctioned!"
"Phoenix Feather Finger, a Di Class Dou Technique. I think that everyone has seen its value just now. The starting price of the auction will be one million three hundred thousand Spirit Coins. Each bid must not be lower than fifty thousand Spirit Coins. There will be a ceiling of eight million Spirit Coins. If anyone were to bid this price first, this Phoenix Feather Finger will belong to that person regardless of who bids a higher price later on. Everyone, you must not miss this opportunity!"
These words, which were intentionally wrapped by Fang Qian's Dou Qi, were like the sound of a bell that resounded beside the ears of everyone present. Additionally, his tone was ingenious and he used some tactics to immediately stir up the atmosphere in the auction ground.
"Ke ke, everyone, please!"
