Xiao Chen and Wang Pingbei left the inn and went to the auction house.
On the way, Wang Pingbei looked around from time to time.
"What are you looking at?"
Seeing this, Xiao Chen asked curiously.
"I'm looking to see if anyone is following us... I always feel like I'm being exposed."
Wang Pingbei replied.
"Not really. The more guilty you are, the more likely you are to attract other people's attention."
Xiao Chen looked at Wang Pingbei and said.
"With your current mentality, when you arrive at the auction and see Zhao Cangqiong and the others, won't you be trembling? Won't you be exposed?"
"Wu, that's not the case. As long as there is no risk of us being exposed, I'm not that scared."
Wang Pingbei shook his head.
"Brother Chen, did we not reveal any flaws this morning?"
"No."
As Xiao Chen spoke, he looked up into the sky and saw two old men flying through the air.
One of them was Mr. Song, who nodded to him in the morning.
"That's good."
Wang Pingbei took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
"Brother Chen, let's try to stay in the box this afternoon. Don't show up in public. We must keep a low profile."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Stop talking nonsense. I am still looking forward to the auction this afternoon... I don't know how much the Heaven-Slaying Sword will sell for."
"Divine weapons...the price won't be low."
Wang Pingbei was also very excited when he thought of the magic weapon.
Although it wasn't his, he felt that... he and Xiao Chen were 'family members'. The more spirit stones Xiao Chen had, the more generous he would be to him.
Soon, the two arrived at the street in front of the auction house.
Just like in the morning, there are still a lot of people here.
The only difference is that after the auction in the morning, the faces of Xiao Chen and Wang Pingbei were remembered by many practitioners.
When they saw the two of them, they nodded and even made way for them.
Maybe they didn't know Xiao Chen's strength, but being able to go to the herringbone box was a symbol of status.
"Mr. Chen, Mr. Wang..."
A female practitioner came over with a smile on her face.
"hehe."
Xiao Chen also laughed. This person was obviously of much higher quality than the female practitioner in the morning.
However, she still can't compare with the girls in Wenqing Building.
What would normally take several minutes to travel became much slower due to the interference of these female practitioners.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen, who was chatting and laughing with the female practitioner, raised his head and looked in one direction.
Eight people, carrying a sedan chair, walked steadily towards the auction house.
People along the way avoided it.
"A sedan bearer with Huajin cultivation..."
Xiao Chen's eyes swept across the eight sedan bearers and then fell on the sedan.
Who is sitting here?
"It's someone from Shanhai Tower."
Wang Pingbei whispered.
"The person sitting in the sedan chair should be Gongsun Zhen."
"Huh? How did you know?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"There's a 'Shanhai' logo on that sedan, just like the 'Qingyun' logo on Qingyun Tower."
Wang Pingbei replied.
"This old guy really knows how to enjoy himself. He is very stylish."
Xiao Chen sneered and looked at the five or six people following behind the sedan, all of whom had the aura of foundation building.
"It's normal for a big guy like this to have some style. It would be abnormal if he came on foot."
Wang Pingbei shook his head.
"Maybe, it was what happened last night that made him too embarrassed to face others."
Xiao Chen sneered even more.
"Hey, where's Gongsun Liang? Why don't I see him?"
"They shouldn't have come together... Look, those are people from the Void Sword Sect."
Wang Pingbei looked in another direction and said.
Xiao Chen looked over and saw five or six people riding tall horses, walking slowly.
This tall horse looks extremely majestic and is obviously not an ordinary horse.
“This horse is great.”
"It should have the bloodline of an exotic beast."
Wang Pingbei replied.
"Even... a strange beast."
"Strange beast?"
Xiao Chen was surprised.
"Can exotic beasts be used as mounts?"
"Of course, this is just a horse. Some big guys also ride various exotic animals..."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
"Especially the Beast Taming Palace, they can control exotic beasts and exert powerful combat power... Shanhai Tower also has the means to tame beasts, just like the 'Shanhai Beast' summoned by Chen Haitao."
“That’s interesting.”
Xiao Chen looked at the big horse in front, on which sat an old man.
There was a young man leading a horse, holding a wooden box in his hand.
There is a sword in the box.
"You say, if we come here riding on Sister Snake, wouldn't that be the coolest?"
Xiao Chen thought of something and asked.
“…”
Wang Pingbei was speechless. How did you think of that big snake?
That is the beast king of the Tianjueyuan restricted area!
Not to mention the beast king in the Tianjueyuan restricted area, even the beast king in the ordinary cave heaven is not easy to control.
"Xiaokong is also OK... But speaking of it, Xiaokong's strength is a little weak."
Xiao Chen thought of the dinosaur in the Wusi Mountains again. When he returned, he would definitely bring it back to Longshan and train it well.
"City Lord Zhao..."
A group of people came in a mighty procession, and those who knew them stopped and greeted them.
"He is Zhao Cangqiong?"
Xiao Chen looked from afar and recalled that this man had been to the scene after he wrote the blood words that day.
At that time, he guessed that it should be Zhao Cangqiong.
It seems to be true.
"That should be the case. I haven't seen Zhao Cangqiong either... Zhao Ritian and Zhao Yuanji are here, as well as people from the Zhao family."
Wang Ping North Road.
"But, you are really low-key. You actually came here on foot."
"A true boss doesn't need to rely on external things to show his status."
Xiao Chen smiled but didn't go over to say hello.
He was friends with Zhao Ritian and Zhao Yuanji, but he didn't know Zhao Cangqiong, so there was no need for him to rush to do anything.
See you at the auction.
By then, it will still be time to say hello.
"Too."
Wang Pingbei thought about it and nodded.
"Even if the owner of your Qingyun Tower holds a broken bowl and looks like a beggar, no one dares to look down on him."
Xiao Chen said again.
“…”
Wang Pingbei looked at Xiao Chen and asked, "What you said... is there some personal grudge behind it?"
More than ten minutes later, the two arrived at the auction.
"Brother Chen..."
Zhao Ritian and Zhao Yuanji were at the door and came over to say hello.
"Hmm? Waiting for us?"
Xiao Chen was puzzled. The Zhao family should have arrived just now, right?
"Yes, we just went in and looked around, but couldn't find you, so we came out to wait for you."
Zhao Ritian nodded.
"Hehe, what are you waiting for us to do?"
Xiao Chen smiled.
"My third brother wants to see you."
Zhao Ritian said.
"Your third brother? Lord Zhao wants to see me?"
Xiao Chen was a little surprised. With Zhao Cangqiong's status, there was no need for him to take the initiative to meet him.
Even if he came from a hidden force and was very powerful, it wouldn't be like that.
The only explanation is because of Zhao Ritian and Zhao Yuanji.
Then, he thought of another possibility... Could it be that Zhao Cangqiong also wanted him to fight on behalf of Sifang City?
Wang Pingbei, who was standing next to him, tensed his body slightly but soon relaxed.
Zhao Cangqiong wanted to see Xiao Chen, so he probably didn't suspect anything.
Otherwise, there is no need to meet him at all, just take people and capture him directly.
After all, this is Sifang City, Zhao Cangqiong’s territory, and also the territory of the four major forces!
"Third brother heard us mention you, so he wanted to meet you."
Zhao Ritian said with a smile.
"Haha, okay."
Xiao Chen smiled and nodded, then walked inside.
"Beizi, please go back to the box and wait for me."
"good."
Hearing this, Wang Pingbei was obviously relieved.
He was also worried that if he came into close contact with the big guys, they would notice him.
Although he has excellent acting skills, if his breathing is unstable or something like that, things could go wrong.
The safest thing to do is to stay in the box and avoid close contact with the big guys.
Wang Pingbei went back, and Xiao Chen went to the No. 1 box.
In the morning, he just took a look from outside and didn't go in.
The Tianzi box is much better than the Renzi box, both in terms of space and decoration, it is bigger and more upscale.
Before Xiao Chen entered the No. 1 box, he paused slightly and felt a stream of spiritual sense sweeping towards him.
At the same time, he also felt that many eyes were falling on him.
The moment Xiao Chen paused, he looked around and was met with many gazes.
These gazes all came from the big guys in Sifang City and the powerful outsiders!
Including Gongsun Zhen.
Xiao Chen chuckled, retracted his gaze, and entered the No. 1 box.
This time, he saw Zhao Cangqiong up close.
Even just now, we were still a certain distance apart.
As the distance shortened, a faint sense of oppression emanated from Zhao Cangqiong.
This pressure was not released intentionally, but was formed naturally as a result of being in a superior position for a long time.
"Third brother, Brother Chen is here."
Zhao Ritian said.
"Haha, little friend Chen."
Zhao Cangqiong stood up and smiled politely.
Xiao Chen was a little surprised. He thought Zhao Cangqiong was a very serious person, but he didn't expect him to be so easy-going.
"Haha, nice to meet City Lord Zhao."
Xiao Chen bowed.
"You and Xiaohao are close friends, there's no need to be polite. Come, take a seat."
Zhao Cangqiong said this and made an 'invitation' gesture.
"Xiao Hao?"
Xiao Chen was startled and looked at Zhao Ritian.
"Well, there is something I have never told Brother Chen... My real name is 'Zhao Hao', not 'Zhao Ritian'."
Zhao Ritian explained when he saw Xiao Chen looking at him.
"Brother Chen, I didn't mean to hide it from you. I have always used the name 'Zhao Ritian' when I travel around the world."
“Zhao Hao…Hao, Ritian?”
Xiao Chen had a strange look on his face, so this is how the name "Ritian" came about.
"Sorry, I wanted to tell you this this morning, but I didn't have the chance..."
Seeing that Xiao Chen didn't say anything, Zhao Ritian spoke again.
"Haha, it's nothing. Who doesn't have an alias when traveling around the world?"
Xiao Chen smiled and didn't care.
Moreover, what he said was also a foreshadowing. If his identity was exposed one day, he would not be considered to have deceived Zhao Ritian.
'Chen Xiao' is also his alias.
It is his name reversed, which is more straightforward than "Hao" being decomposed into "Ritian".
"Hahaha, I hope you can understand."
Zhao Ritian burst into laughter.
"Yeah, I understand. I understand very much."
Xiao Chen nodded and muttered to himself, you have to understand me in the future!
Zhao Cangqiong glanced at Zhao Ritian, then at Xiao Chen. It seemed that in the eyes of his seventh brother, Chen Xiao was of great importance.
He knew his younger brother. Although he was not rebellious, he was not easy to get along with.
Being able to explain it this way already means something.
