"My father is Fan Lao, the sect leader of the Blood Sect. He is a Dou Huang level expert. If you dare to touch me, he will definitely..."

Before Fan Ling could finish speaking, Xiao Yan gave him no chance and directly dealt with him.

That's ridiculous. Do you really think he's stupid? Letting him go would be the real trouble you'd be causing.

Besides, just the fact that he brought people to surround and kill them meant that the person in front of him was already doomed.

Chapter 106 Medusa's Intimidation

After confirming several times that the three people on the ground were indeed dead, Xiao Yan finally felt relieved.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yan knelt down beside the three of them, took off all the bags and storage rings on his body, and finally took out the storage rings he had found after killing the three people and arranged them in a row.

After Xiao Yan used his soul power to break through the storage rings of the others, he immediately began to explore them.

This unexpected windfall naturally delighted Xiao Yan. After looking at the corpse on the ground, he thought for a moment and then used the strange fire in his hand to burn the corpse and clothes to ashes.

After Xiao Yan had taken care of everything, he felt a little relieved and left.

Unbeknownst to them, Fan Laoben, who was meditating in the Blood Sect, suddenly opened his eyes.

Fan Lao's eyes were bloodshot, his anger surging wildly, and his face was icy cold. He couldn't help but roar in fury:

"Bastard, no matter who you are, I will kill you to avenge my son! If my sect finds out who did this, they will suffer the agony of being torn to pieces!"

He had previously left a drop of blood in Fan Ling's body, which had been used in a secret technique. Therefore, when Fan Ling was dealt with by Xiao Yan, he immediately sensed it. However, because Xiao Yan burned the corpse, he only saw a green flame slowly burning, which gave people a strong sense of oppression. But he recognized it at a glance as a strange fire.

Their sect's blood techniques are insidious and unorthodox, specializing in the path of coldness and yin. Therefore, they are naturally incompatible with fire-attribute battle qi. However, this only applies to ordinary fire-attribute battle qi. If they encounter a flame of the level of a strange fire, it will be like a mouse encountering a cat. It is an absolute suppression with no power to resist.

However, the characteristics of the murderer who killed Fan Ling are also obvious: just look for someone who possesses a bluish-green strange fire.

The murderer's strength was obviously not that great. If he were at the level of a Battle King, his secret technique would not be able to be activated due to the burning ability of the strange fire. At most, he would be at the level of a Battle Spirit.

Thinking that there was hope for revenge, Fan Lao immediately summoned people to spread the information and issue a warrant for his arrest in the Black Corner Region.

The Black Corner Region is extremely vast, and after years of expansion, it has almost become a distinct small country. However, the only difference between it and other empires is that this region is chaotic, with each faction fighting for its own interests. All forces are constantly vying for and killing each other, making it as chaotic as a pile of loose sand. But it is precisely because of this that the Black Corner Region has been able to grow stronger in this central part of the continent.

Otherwise, it's unlikely that any power would sit idly by and watch this incredibly destructive territory grow rapidly and pose a threat to them.

However, as the saying goes, every disadvantage has its advantage. Although the chaos of the Black Corner Region is well-known throughout the continent, the various high-level cultivation techniques, combat skills, pills, and other rare items flowing through it have attracted many powerful figures from across the continent. After all, these items are essential things that even they covet. Obtaining a cultivation technique that is more advanced than what they cultivate themselves would allow them to take another step on the path to becoming a powerful figure. Such temptation is undoubtedly fatal to powerful individuals.

Xiao Miao came here for this very purpose. He didn't need any cultivation techniques. After all, although his own cultivation method was quite unique, the cultivation speed was extremely fast, and he had already gotten used to it, so it wasn't particularly awkward. He often comforted himself, saying that it was all for the sake of becoming stronger, so as not to be ashamed.

However, rare and precious materials are still very useful, such as elixirs. Moreover, Xiao Miao also wanted to search for treasures with yin and cold attributes here.

When he had more time in the future, Xiao Miao planned to go to the Northern Continent to look for the Cold Yin Stone that Yao Lao had mentioned before. Although the hope was slim, he still had to give it a try.

The two brought Zi Yan back to the chaotic Black Corner Region, but this time they headed to Black Seal City inside the region. On the way, they asked around for directions.

The annual auction will be held there soon, and there must be many treasures. If you need any, you can naturally take them into your own hands.

As for the gold coins, Xiao Miao had thought that Medusa's treasury should be enough before he came. Medusa also reassured Xiao Miao and looked calm, which made him think that Medusa was very wealthy.

However, Medusa had a completely different thought. The night before she set off a few days ago, with the help of Xiao Miao, she had already broken through to the ninth level of the Dou Zong realm. In addition, with the Heavenly Rank cultivation technique, Demon God Transformation, she believed that if the person behind the auction house was not as strong as her, she could simply snatch it away and what could they do to her?

This put Xiao Miao at ease. Her Demon God Transformation had already achieved some success, and she was confident that she could contend with even a Dou Zun at the first star level.

The group flew along the mountain road and crossed a mountain ridge. At the foot of the ridge, a huge city made of black boulders appeared indistinctly. At the city's four gates, countless tiny black dots could be vaguely seen, like ants gathering and surging into the city's gaping dark maw.

Seeing this, the group did not line up like the people below, but instead flew directly overhead.

At this moment, the guards also noticed the person flying overhead, but they dared not stop him in the slightest. It was a joke; trying to stop such a person would be suicidal. In this chaotic Black Corner Region, human life was the cheapest thing.

Even if he risked his life to stop them for his master, and they killed him, his master probably wouldn't stand up for them. In that case, he might as well stay quietly to the side.

Just as the three of them flew into the city from above, several senses surged over them. They had learned on the way that there was an auction in Black Seal City in the next two days, and every year the Black Seal City auction would feature some great and rare items. There had even been a rumor that a low-level Earth-rank fighting technique had been sold there before. Therefore, every year when the auction was held, powerful figures from all sides would come over.

However, Medusa wouldn't tolerate this. Her powerful aura surged forth, instantly stunning the many powerful observers. This served as a warning: if there was a next time, they wouldn't be so quick to kill.

The powerful figures around them felt the aura emanating from the air and couldn't help but tense up. The aura emanating from the beautiful woman made it difficult for them to even move.

"High-level Dou Zong".

In an instant, everyone was filled with shock and speculation, and they also added the group in front of them to their list of people they could not offend, so they were extremely cautious.

Once they had withdrawn all their senses from the surroundings, the three landed on the ground and found a place to stay in the city.

Chapter 107 Unexpected Behavior

However, the three of them ran into a problem with room allocation. Although Zi Yan was very unwilling, under Medusa's coercion, the others had no choice but to obediently have their own rooms.

The other two people shared a room.

In the two days that followed, while waiting for the auction to begin, the group stayed in their own rooms to cultivate. However, every night, Medusa would sneak into Xiao Miao's room to set up a barrier before engaging in their essential deep exchange.

Because Zi Yan's strength was low, she didn't discover anything, which made Xiao Miao sigh. He had wasted money on an extra room. The prices here were much higher than those of the hotels in the Jia Ma Empire, and his savings had shrunk once again.

As the start time of the auction drew near, the group exited their cultivation state and made their way to the auction house at a leisurely pace.

Standing at the end of the bustling street, Xiao Miao looked up at the colossal auction house that appeared before him and couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation. When he saw the Mittel family's auction house in the capital of the Gama Empire, he was quite surprised by its scale. But now that he was in Black Seal City, he realized that the Mittel auction house was nothing compared to this "Black Seal" auction house.

At the entrance of the Black Seal Auction House, dozens of indifferent men in black, with sharp weapons at their waists, scanned the flow of people coming and going with eagle-like eyes. However, according to Xiao Miao's perception, only five of them were at the Dou Shi level, while the others were only at the peak of the Dou Zhe level.

However, this kind of setup is quite impressive, suggesting that the strength of these eight gates in Black Seal City is indeed extremely formidable. At least in the Mittel family, one would never see a Battle Master used as a gatekeeper.

With Medusa and Zi Yan by his side, Xiao Miao stepped inside, which aroused the curiosity of many people around.

The group slowly walked into the auction house following the flow of people. However, there was indeed a barrier of battle qi around them. In this huge crowd, not a single person could get close to them. The huge, cold aura emanating from Xiao Miao's body intimidated the people around him, preventing them from pushing forward. This congested passage also formed a vacuum zone, and Jie Yuan immediately followed it.

Inside the auction house, huge screens hung all around, displaying countless items up for auction. Xiao Miao glanced at them briefly and didn't find anything particularly rare, let alone the Yin-type treasure he needed. He was somewhat disappointed.

However, upon further reflection, he felt at ease. The cold and yin attribute of battle qi was already rare, let alone a treasure. Moreover, those rare items were probably kept as secret treasures to maintain their mystique, which was why they hadn't been released.

When the auction is held later, there may be something he needs.

The group glanced at the crowded gate and then at the empty, quiet carpeted passageway. Without hesitation, they headed straight there.

Although none of them had VIP cards, they were not flustered at all. Xiao Miao had been cultivating for the past two days and had also inquired about the strength of the leaders of the various forces in the Black Corner Region.

Not to mention Medusa, who is already a nine-star Dou Zong, her own strength alone still ranks among the top in the Black Corner Region.

Now that I am at the peak of the Douhuang realm, and with so many trump cards at my disposal, what do I have to fear?

Xiao Miao entered the passage, where the light was slightly dim. He walked along the corridor to the end, and then turned a corner. Suddenly, a huge auction venue came into view. Although he was somewhat used to it, he was still slightly surprised.

The auction venue was larger than any auction I had ever seen before, and the densely packed seats and the auction platform, which was almost entirely made of dazzling crystal, were quite dazzling.

At this moment, a beautiful maidservant hurried over, bowed, and asked:

"Excuse me, does anyone have a VIP card?"

Xiao Miao looked at the maid in front of him and asked a question, then shook his head.

Seeing Xiao Miao's state, the maids became difficult to deal with. Logically speaking, those who came through the VIP channel all had VIP cards, and they were just checking them as usual.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that some people want to sneak in, but since they were purged in previous years, no one dares to challenge the power of the Bashan Gate anymore. Even the other major forces, even if they are not afraid, will not seek trouble for themselves.

The maid looked at the man in black robes before her, whose face was hidden beneath the robes and could not be seen clearly, but he was accompanied by a beautiful woman and a lovely girl.

Could it be that these people are here to cause trouble?

At this moment, the maid gave a wink to the old man who was maintaining order not far away, and the latter quickly came over.

"How many people are here?"

At this moment, the old man walked over and asked in a somewhat sinister tone. Although his own strength was only at the Dou Ling level and not particularly strong, he had the Eight Gates standing behind him. With such a powerful force behind him, he naturally spoke with confidence.

Seeing the old man's expression gradually turn unfriendly, Xiao Miao couldn't help but look at Medusa beside him. After all, his own savings were almost gone, so he could only look to the rich woman for help.

Just when Xiao Miao thought Medusa would generously make a move and thoroughly humiliate the old man in front of him, something unexpected happened.

Instead of pulling out a pile of gold coins as he had imagined, Medusa's oppressive aura spread once more, causing the old man in front of her to kneel down.

Medusa did not target everyone present; she only leaked the information to the old man in front of her.

Even though the old man was kneeling on the ground, he was still very perceptive. The terrifying pressure alone was something that even the mastermind behind the Eight Doors couldn't match. Immediately, he instructed the maid beside him, fearing that if he finished speaking, his life would be in danger.

"Hurry up and take these gentlemen to the VIP room."

As soon as she finished speaking, Medusa withdrew her oppressive aura towards the old man, and then looked at Xiao Miao with undisguised pride in her eyes.

Xiao Miao was speechless. He now knew that Medusa probably hadn't come here with any intention of spending money. At the same time, he couldn't help but feel sorry for the people who would be auctioning the items next. If they had their eyes on the same items as her, they probably wouldn't have a good ending.

Zi Yan, on the other hand, was taking advantage of Medusa's power, her condescending gaze clearly revealing that she had probably wanted to do this for a long time and was just taking advantage of Medusa's prestige.

Following the maid's trembling steps, the group entered the spacious room, which contained soft chairs covered with exquisite velvet. Xiao Miao sat down immediately, and the soft touch made him almost want to curl up in them. At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh that as long as you have strength, you can have a smooth ride in the Black Corner Region.

Chapter 108: A Supreme Treasure of Yin and Cold Appears?

With a little while before the auction began, Medusa closed her eyes calmly, while Zi Yan looked around curiously, like a curious child.

Xiao Miao simply thought that the chair he was sitting on was quite nice. After thinking for a moment, he decided to take the chair with him and use it when he needed to rest. He thought it would be very comfortable.

Just over twenty minutes later, a clear chime rang out slowly throughout the venue.

Upon hearing the chime of the bell, the group stopped what they were thinking and slowly looked down at the platform.

At this moment, on the dazzling crystal platform, an elderly man with white hair, who looked like an auctioneer, stood smiling. Xiao Miao was somewhat surprised. Wasn't this the same old man from before? He hadn't expected him to be an auctioneer.

As the auction began, the previously noisy and chaotic atmosphere gradually subsided, and countless fervent gazes were cast toward the crystal platform.

"Hehe, everyone, I suppose you're getting a little impatient. In that case, I won't bother with any more official platitudes."
