Chapter 136 The Auction Begins! [Please Read On]

Seven days flew by.

When the day of the auction arrived, Xiao Lei and his group of four went directly to the auction house.

When they arrived at the auction house entrance, it was already packed with people.

Xiao Lei glanced around, then stopped at another passageway outside the auction house entrance.

The passageway there is almost a completely different scene compared to this one.

A red carpet was laid on the spacious passageway, and dozens of men in black stood there with indifferent expressions. The violent aura emanating from them intimidated the crowd around them, preventing them from pushing their way through.

As a result, the passageway there ended up being a vacuum zone.

As Xiao Lei and his companions glanced over, they happened to see a group of figures stepping into the red carpeted passageway.

At the very center of that group stood a handsome young man with an excessively pale complexion.

This person appeared to be around twenty-four or twenty-five years old. Judging from the energy fluctuations emanating from him, he was roughly at the Dou Ling level, which was quite impressive in the Northwest Continent.

"Hey, look over there, it looks like people from the Blood Sect!"

"It really is that group of freaks. The one in the middle, that should be Fan Ling, the young sect leader of the Blood Sect, right?"

"Hehe, I heard that an elder from the Eight Doors went missing not long ago, and it seems to be related to him!"

"Then he still dares to come to the Eight Doors' territory?"

"What's there to be afraid of? It's because he has a powerful father! His father is ranked fifth on the Black List, while Yuan Yi of the Eight Doors is far inferior!"

"..."

"Blood Sect One," Xiao Lei muttered to himself as he listened to the discussions around him.

"Let's go in from that side too," Xiao Lei said with a faint smile to Xiao Yan and the other two beside him after the Blood Sect members entered the auction house.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Lei took the lead and walked towards the red carpet passage.

Cai Lin and Hai Bodong followed Xiao Lei without any hesitation.

Xiao Yan looked slightly nervous, but thinking of Xiao Lei's formidable strength, he quickly followed.

"Gentlemen, please show your VIP cards!" A man in black said indifferently upon seeing the four arrive.

"Hai Bodong, show us your strength," Xiao Lei said, ignoring the man and instead instructing Hai Bodong beside him.

boom!

Upon receiving Xiao Lei's order, Hai Bodong did not hesitate and immediately released a terrifying aura belonging to a five-star Dou Huang!

After taking the Rejuvenating Elixir, Hai Bodong's cultivation level was completely restored to its peak.

Under the oppressive aura of Hai Bodong, the group of black-clad men from the Eight Doors turned pale and nearly collapsed to their knees.

"Senior, please come in!"

The leader of the men in black immediately addressed Hai Bodong respectfully, and presented him with a VIP card.

Xiao Lei smiled faintly and took the lead.

Cai Lin, Hai Bodong, and Xiao Yan followed closely behind.

"Hiss! What a terrifying aura! Another Dou Huang powerhouse!"

"What's even more terrifying is that the Dou Huang expert actually obeys that young man's orders. I wonder what that young man's identity is?"

"Sigh, I'm so envious. If I had that kind of ability, I wouldn't need to squeeze into this queue."

"..."

Ignoring the discussions behind them, Xiao Lei and his group went straight along the passageway into the auction house.

Upon entering the passage, the light was somewhat dim. They walked along the corridor to the end, then turned a corner, and suddenly, a colossal auction venue came into view.

"As expected of the Black Corner Region, this auction house is truly enormous!" Looking at the colossal auction venue, Xiao Yan took a deep breath and murmured.

The auction venue was larger than any he had ever seen before.

The densely packed seats and the auction platform, almost entirely constructed of dazzling crystal, were almost overwhelming.

In fact, this was the first time Xiao Lei had ever seen such a massive auction venue.

In his past life, he didn't even have the qualifications to enter an auction house. In this life, although he has been to auction houses, they have all been quite ordinary.

Xiao Lei chuckled and said, "Indeed, it's quite good. I hope this auction won't disappoint."

"Sir, may I ask your seat numbers?"

Just then, a beautiful maidservant walked over quickly and asked respectfully.

Hai Bodong stepped forward, took out the VIP card given to him by the people from the Eight Gates, and handed it over.

"Sir, you are a Level 3 VIP card holder. Please follow me."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Upon seeing the VIP card, the maid's eyes flashed with surprise, and her attitude became much more respectful as she bowed slightly.

The Level 3 VIP Card is the highest level of VIP card available at the Black Seal City Auction.

After saying that, the maid hurriedly led the way for Xiao Lei and his companions.

Xiao Lei and his three companions followed the maid with leisurely expressions. Nearly ten minutes later, the maid led them to the front row seats.

"Gentlemen, please!"

The maid pointed to the seats for the four of them, then smiled slightly and bowed before leaving.

Fan Ling, who was originally sitting in the front row, frowned upon seeing this scene and asked the old man beside him, "Who are they? Why have we never seen them before?"

"I don't know either. The Eight Doors arranged them in the front row, so they must not be easy to deal with," a pale-faced old man next to Fan Ling said in a low voice.

Fan Ling's eyes flickered, and he muttered, "Hopefully they won't try to take that thing from us, otherwise, who cares who they are..."

He then closed his eyes and quietly waited for the auction to begin.

While Fan Ling closed his eyes, several factions not far from them were whispering amongst themselves.

Many people mentioned Xiao Lei and his group of four, clearly showing curiosity about these four strangers who suddenly appeared in the front row.

But more often, they mentioned a mysterious object, which seemed to be the final item in this auction!

After Xiao Lei and his group entered the auction house, they waited for about half an hour before a clear chime slowly rang out in the auction house.

As the bell rang, a great deal of noise immediately arose around them.

At this moment, on a dazzling crystal platform in the auction house, an elderly man with white hair, resembling an auctioneer, stood smiling on it.

Clearly, the highly anticipated auction is finally about to begin!

Gradually, the noise in the venue began to subside, and countless eyes were fixed on the crystal platform, their gazes burning with desire.

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

The white-haired old man in his fine robes smiled as he looked at the sea of ​​faces in the arena and said in a gentle voice,

"As this is an annual auction, I believe that this year's event, hosted by the Eight Doors, will certainly not disappoint you. I hereby declare the Black Seal City Auction open!"

As the old man's voice faded, the massive crystal platform suddenly erupted with blinding light.

After a long while, the bright light gradually dissipated, and on the crystal platform, in front of the white-haired old man at the auction stage, a long sword with a pure blue body was reflecting a cold luster under the light.

Judging from the energy traces flowing on the sword, it is clearly a magic core weapon meticulously forged by a master craftsman.

Many people in the auction house had burning eyes as they looked at the azure longsword!
