A countless number of people within Xuan City were shocked by the high entrance fee. Five hundred thousand spirit coins. This was enough to eliminate over half of the people in Xuan City from this auction.
Faced with such a high entrance fee, those people could only bitterly return even though they were unwilling. After all, they had witnessed the strength of this group of black-robed people. From the looks of the enormous Spiritual Strength that had surged out from their bodies earlier, the strength that this group of people possessed was definitely not below that of a Dou Di. With just this group of Ban Di in the city, it was likely that they would not be a match for them even if they were to attack together. The people in the city were aware of this point.
Although most of the people had missed the opportunity to participate in the auction this time around, the remaining group of people would not miss such a good opportunity.
A moment later, numerous human figures within the city rushed into the sky and arrived in front of the black-robed person standing in front of the spatial tunnel. A small group of people among them held an indifferent attitude toward the five hundred thousand spirit coins. However, most people's faces would involuntarily reveal an extremely pained expression when they took out the five hundred thousand spirit coins. Clearly, even though the remaining group of people had the capital to participate in this spatial auction, this capital did not mean that they were absolutely wealthy.
Within a short moment, the front of the spatial tunnel was already filled with people. In order to maintain order, the black-robed person had no choice but to reveal a little of his might. Only then did the chaotic crowd become orderly and separate into three lines. Even though this was the case, the end of these three lines had already reached the end of one's sight. From this, one could tell just how great the influence of this spatial auction was.
Each time a faction entered the spatial tunnel, five hundred thousand spirit coins would land in the sleeves of the black-robed person or an item of similar value. No one was an exception to this point. Even the two large clans had to hand over five hundred thousand spirit coins.
Xiao Yan was wearing a black robe. His body was completely covered by the black robe. His eyes watched the long line in front of him gradually move forward. His heart felt somewhat helpless. It was unexpected that entering the auction house was actually so troublesome. Earlier, he had merely been a little slower and ended up at the back of the line. However, he did not know just how long he would have to wait until he entered the auction house.
"Ugh …"
As he thought of this, Xiao Yan's mouth involuntarily let out a soft helpless sigh. Soon after, however, when Xiao Yan's gaze randomly glanced over the crowd in front of him, the expression in his eyes suddenly became dull. In his sight, there were a couple of human figures standing in the queue. Looking at those familiar faces, they were the people from the two large clans.
"They are actually also …"
Xiao Yan's eyebrows twitched slightly. He involuntarily felt a surprise in his heart. He did not expect that the people from the two large clans would actually be in the line.
Originally, Huo Yuhao thought that with the strength of the two large clans, they would receive special treatment and should have already entered the auction house. However, looking at their current appearance, their faces seemed to be filled with helplessness. Their faces were somewhat ashen. It was obvious that they were extremely dissatisfied in their hearts. They did not expect that with the strength of their clans, they would actually have to line up here.
However, Xiao Yan thought about it again and his heart felt relieved. The strength of this group of black-robed people was extraordinary. Even the four large sects were a little wary of them. Naturally, the two large clans would not dare to provoke them. With regards to their rules, it was likely that even the people from the Heavenly Sword Sect could only obediently abide by them.
Xiao Yan's gaze swept across the two men from the Huo Clan as a glint flashed across his eyes. Immediately, his gaze landed on the Bai Clan father and son. Both of his eyes narrowed slightly as he stared intently at the two. Suspicions involuntarily rose in Xiao Yan's heart. At the same time, he also felt a sense of seriousness.
The father and son were extremely scheming. They were able to treat everything with caution. Whatever they did, they seemed to have a motive. This was especially so for Bai Zhan, who had purposely concealed his strength. This was something that even the other three large clans did not know. Even though the three large clans had their suspicions, they were unable to find any evidence to prove Bai Zhan's strength. Even when they tried to probe him and threatened him with their lives, this fellow actually did not pay any attention to them. Just based on this point alone, it was enough to be called frightening.
With this father and son duo in the Bai Clan, their future was likely to be extraordinary!
Although a powerful tiger could take a person's life, it would also suffer the pain of a counterattack. However, a venomous snake that hid in the dark was different. Once it attacked and bit down, not only would it not give a person the chance to counterattack, it would also take a person's life. There was no chance of survival.
The Heavenly Sword Sect was like a ferocious tiger, while the Bai Clan was like a venomous snake that was entrenched under its body. Once it revealed its venomous fangs, no matter how powerful the Heavenly Sword Sect was, it would be difficult for them to escape death.
"This Bai Clan … must be treated with caution!"
Even though Xiao Yan had a secret agreement with the Bai clan, Xiao Yan had no choice but to be cautious. This group of people had been working under the Heavenly Sword Gate for many years. Everything they did was for the sake of lying low and waiting for the best opportunity to completely overthrow the Heavenly Sword Gate. Their scheming was so deep that it caused one's back to feel a chill. It was likely that regardless of whether it was Xiao Yan or any other faction that cooperated with them, it was likely that they would be terrified!
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Bai Ying, who was a three star Dou Di in the front of the group, suddenly frowned. He turned his head and his sharp eyes swiftly swept over the group behind him. Just a moment ago, he had clearly sensed a gaze with a hidden meaning. That gaze was clearly aimed at them. Moreover, that kind of feeling caused Bai Ying's heart to tremble slightly. The depths of his heart swayed slightly. That was fear.
"How can this be … who is that person? What is he planning to do? Why does he cause me to feel afraid?"
Bai Ying's sleek red face had unknowingly turned pale. The expression in his eyes was especially grave. Threads of cold sweat slowly flowed down from his forehead. Even the breath in his nose had swayed slightly.
That gaze from earlier had caused him to sense a trace of a dangerous aura. It was as though … as though that gaze could take away his life. It was just like the sickle of a ghost, causing one's heart to tremble.
He had sensed this kind of feeling not long ago. It was from that young man in the Desolate Ancient Remains a couple of months ago. That young man was terrifyingly strong despite his young age.
"Could it be him?"
Bai Ying's heart involuntarily thought of a person. Although he did not expect it, that person's figure would linger in his mind once he thought of it. It was just like a dream.
"Father, what is it?"
Bai Zhan by the side had a slight change in expression when he sensed the change in expression on Bai Ying's face. He understood his father very well. His father's mental state had never changed in so many years. No matter who or what he faced, he would always be able to calmly face it. However, at this moment, the sudden change in expression on his father's face caused him to feel a little uneasy.
"It's nothing. That should be a misconception. Try to be careful when you enter the auction house later. Not only must you be careful of these few hungry wolves, there are also other people …"
Bai Ying vaguely spoke. After which, he slowly turned around and inhaled a deep breath of air. It was a long while later before he gradually calmed down.
Bai Zhan knit his brows tightly when he heard this. The suspicion in his heart involuntarily increased. At the same time, he also felt shocked. He could sense that his father's mental state had undergone a change. This was the first time this had happened in so many years.
