"Haha, so it's Huo Third Elder!"
Above the void, while the expressions of the Bai family's father and son changed, Lin Zehong's face once again showed a smile. He cupped his fists respectfully towards the old man. The expression on his face was undoubtedly more attentive than when he saw the Bai family's father and son just now.
"What a fence-sitter!"
Seeing this, Bai Ying couldn't help but curse inwardly, feeling a wave of disdain.
The Huo Third Elder that Lin Zehong spoke of was Huo Ting. Huo Ting was the third elder of the Huo Clan, and he was one of the few people in the Huo Clan with real power. He had a high position, and in the entire Huo Clan, no one dared to look down on his words.
What surprised Lin Zehong the most was that the Huo Family had actually sent such a powerhouse for this auction. His appearance represented the entire Huo Family. It seemed that not only the Bai Family, but the Huo Family was also particularly concerned about this auction.
He just did not know what kind of priceless treasure would appear in this auction that could move the two clans so much.
"Patriarch Lin, I remember that the last time we met was two years ago."
Hearing Lin Zehong's words, Huo Ting's old face did not change. The Huo Clan did not care about a mere Lin Clan. Even if the Lin Clan had made great contributions to the Huo Clan, he was still not a member of the Huo Clan. In his eyes, the Lin Clan was just an outsider. Even if there were differences, it was just a relationship of using them.
If the Lin Clan had lost its value, the Huo Clan would not hesitate to abandon them in the wilderness and let them fend for themselves.
"Haha, Third Elder is still strong. I haven't seen you for two years, and you are even stronger than before. I'm afraid you are about to break through to the four star level!"
Lin Zehong's flattery was no different from what he had said to Bai Ying earlier. Based on this, even people who were not familiar with him could tell that this person was an extremely hypocritical person.
"Huo Yuning, what do you mean by what you just said?"
After withdrawing his gaze, the expression on Bai Ying's face suddenly turned cold. The indifferent expression in his eyes instantly turned ice-cold. Even the aura on his body involuntarily fluctuated.
When Bai Zhan saw this, he hurriedly grabbed the latter's wrist and slowly shook his head. His face was solemn.
Seeing this, Bai Ying withdrew his gaze with a gloomy expression.
Even with Huo Yu Ning's strength, his heart involuntarily palpitated when he saw the icy-cold gaze that shot over from Bai Ying's eyes. A chill immediately rose from his back. The other party was after all a three star Dou Di. His strength far surpassed Huo Yu Ning's. Just that invisible aura was enough to intimidate him.
"Haha, Patriarch Bai, my Young Master is young and impetuous. He speaks without thinking. Patriarch Bai, you don't have to take his words to heart. I apologize on his behalf."
Huo Ting cupped his hands to Bai Ying as he softly laughed. Although he appeared to be apologizing, the smile that was revealed on the corner of his mouth was filled with disdain.
Although the members of these two clans appeared friendly, the smell of gunpowder was extremely dense. This also further reflected the relationship between the four large clans.
The two clans only exchanged words with each other. Lin Zehong and Xu Songming, who were standing by the side, were completely ignored. Immediately, the expressions on the faces of these two people were different.
On the other side, Xiao Yan, who was within the inn, was observing everything that was happening in the city. He sensed the smell of gunpowder that spread between the two clans. Xiao Yan's heart involuntarily relaxed. If these two clans were to restrain each other, it would undoubtedly reduce a lot of trouble for Xiao Yan.
While the few factions in the sky were facing each other, circular invisible spatial ripples suddenly surged in a certain empty space within Xuan City.
In an instant, over a dozen gazes within Xuan City were uniformly looking at the spot where the spatial ripples were spreading. All of these people were elite Dou Di. Among them were naturally the two from the Bai clan and the Huo clan, as well as Lin Zehong, who was currently beside them, and Xu Songming, who was a rank three alchemist.
Of course, Xiao Yan, who was currently within the inn, was naturally no exception.
Over a dozen gazes within the enormous Xuan City were like spotlights as they gathered at a certain spot in the empty space. The spatial ripples at that spot were becoming increasingly obvious.
At a certain moment, the invisible empty space seemed to have been torn apart and separated. It turned into a spatial tunnel. Soon after, a couple of human figures flashed out from within it.
The gazes of Xiao Yan's group also landed on these few human figures.
Finally, the spatial ripples gradually calmed down. Over a dozen human figures were already standing in the empty space. The bodies of these human figures were covered by large black robes. Not only was it impossible to see their bodies, but it was also impossible to detect their strength under the cover of the black robes. However, just from the fact that they were able to tear apart the empty space, the strength of this group of people was definitely not weak. It was likely that they were at least elite Dou Di.
Over a dozen elite Dou Di. Such a lineup was an existence that could do whatever they wanted within the western region. Even the four large sects had no choice but to be cautious when faced with such a luxurious lineup.
"Have they finally arrived?"
Bai Ying narrowed his eyes as he stood in the empty space. His gaze swept over the dozen human figures. Even with his character, a deep solemness involuntarily appeared deep within his eyes.
Following the appearance of this group of people, the people in the city below quickly discovered their existence. Soon after, numerous fiery hot gazes were swiftly shot over. The greed in their eyes was not hidden at all.
Xiao Yan, who was seated cross-legged on the bed within the inn, stood up. The attire of this group of people might be strange, but from their appearance and the degree of attention that everyone in the city gave them, it was not difficult to imagine that this group of people should be the organizers of this auction.
With the help of his Spiritual Strength, Xiao Yan swiftly observed the bodies of these ten plus human figures. However, when he turned his head, Xiao Yan involuntarily frowned. These ten plus human figures were completely covered by black robes. At a glance, they were a black mass. It was impossible to see anything unusual about them.
The only difference on their bodies was that there was a circle of strange golden runes on the collar of their robes. From the looks of those runes, it should be some kind of formation, and they were borrowing the power of this formation to conceal their auras.
After Xiao Yan's eyes shifted away from this group of people, the leader of the black-robed group suddenly waved his large sleeve. A glass-like golden light immediately agglomerated in front of him. In the blink of an eye, it agglomerated into a palm-sized, porcelain white jade plate. Some complicated symbols were carved on it in a crooked manner.
Xiao Yan immediately felt a surprise in his heart when he saw this jade plate. This was because this person had taken out an array plate.
