Wang Pingbei looked at Xiao Chen and for a moment he didn't know whether this was the result Xiao Chen wanted.
"Who am I? I'm Xiao Chen... I'm panicking right now."
Xiao Chen took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
He was already thinking about how to escape.
With just the star stones and the like, he wouldn't be in a hurry.
But now... the animal skin related to Emperor Xuanyuan's inheritance fell into his hands. He was sure that he would be hunted down as soon as he stepped out.
"How about hiding in the bone ring? Hide for three to five days and wait for them to leave before coming out? If they don't leave in three to five days, then stay a few more days. There will always be a day when you have to leave."
Xiao Chen thought of this and glanced at Wang Pingbei.
He can hide, but Wang Pingbei can't.
No... I can't hide in the bone ring, that's a very bad idea.
Once he goes in and Wang Pingbei is arrested, his identity will definitely be exposed.
By then, those who want to kill him will not only be the strong men in Sifang City, but also the strong men from the outside world will probably come to kill him.
"Don't panic... don't panic at all."
Xiao Chen kept comforting himself, picked up the tea and took a big sip.
"One hundred and eleven."
After a brief silence, Zhao Cangqiong's voice rang out.
"Fuck... City Lord Zhao, save my life."
Xiao Chen was very excited. To him, Zhao Cangqiong's voice was no less than the sound of nature!
Zhao Cangqiong looked at Xiao Chen. He was also a little confused as to why this guy wanted to make an offer.
Logically speaking, with Xiao Chen's intelligence, he should know that this animal skin is not something that can be touched.
No matter how tempted you are, you can't touch it unless you really have a trump card that can fight against so many strong people.
"Huh... This tea suddenly tastes sweet."
Xiao Chen leaned back in his chair and said to Wang Pingbei.
"Brother Chen, were you just...shouting for fun?"
Wang Pingbei asked in a low voice.
"What else? Damn, I'm so scared that I'm sweating on my forehead."
Xiao Chen nodded and covered his face with the bowl to hide his fear.
“…”
Wang Pingbei was speechless. You really dared to play. You almost killed yourself.
"Fortunately, City Lord Zhao has raised the price. Remember to remind me so that I can thank City Lord Zhao later."
When Xiao Chen put down the bowl, his expression had calmed down.
"Oh, okay."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
"Zhao Cangqiong made another bid?"
"He wants to help that kid Chen Xiao?"
“…”
In the box on the second floor, the bosses looked at the box where Zhao Cangqiong was, and each had their own ideas.
"Twelve thousand."
Gongsun Zhen made another bid. Zhao Cangqiong was not Xiao Chen. If he really let it take away, he would never get it back.
"Thirteen thousand..."
A new round of price increases has begun.
Xiao Chen didn't dare to play anymore. He just drank his tea and watched the fun.
"Twenty thousand!"
Zhao Cangqiong appeared in front of the railing and looked towards the boxes where Shanhai Tower, Jiuding Sect, and Void Sword Sect were located.
Soon, the leaders of the three forces also appeared in front of the railing.
These four forces are the ones that control Sifang City now!
They have the final say in this big city.
In this big city, even Qingyun Tower... has far less say!
When the leaders of the four forces appeared in front of the railing, one attitude was made clear.
We want this hide.
Anyone who argues again will be disrespecting us.
If you don't give face to the four forces, how can you survive in Sifang City?
No matter who you are, even if you are an outsider...it is difficult to leave Sifang City!
Even Wu Qingming from Qingyun Tower frowned and said nothing.
The four forces usually have their own thoughts, but at critical moments, they will unite to defend their interests.
Otherwise, Sifang City would have changed hands over the years.
Just like now, no one can defeat me.
At least in this Sifang City, there is no force that can compete with the Sifang forces!
"That's about the same."
Li Xiunian looked at Zhao Cangqiong, Gongsun Zhen and the other three, feeling somewhat helpless.
However, this scene was also within his expectations.
This animal skin will most likely fall into the hands of the four forces.
The fact that they could offer a price of 20,000 was considered to be giving enough face to the Longteng Chamber of Commerce.
Otherwise, at two thousand, they could stand up... Similarly, no one dared to raise the price.
"What are they doing?"
Xiao Chen was stunned. It was quiet again?
Soon, he figured it out and looked at Li Xiunian.
Would the Longteng Chamber of Commerce be happy about this?
When he saw that Li Xiunian didn't say anything, he understood that this matter was tacitly approved.
Although there was not much communication, but just now... both the four forces and Li Xiunian reached a consensus on the ownership of the animal skins.
The four forces simultaneously seized the animal skins, and the Longteng Chamber of Commerce sold them for 20,000 spirit stones...
Others are not qualified.
As for how the four forces divided the animal skins, Xiao Chen couldn't guess, but that was their own business.
“Rules…can only restrict the majority of people, but for the minority who make the rules, the rules are weapons in their hands.”
Xiao Chen shook his head, feeling somewhat emotional.
"Twenty thousand spirit stones once, twenty thousand spirit stones twice, twenty thousand spirit stones three times... Congratulations to City Lord Zhao for winning the animal skin."
Li Xiunian smiled and hammered down the deal.
Zhao Cangqiong nodded, glanced at the entire audience, clasped his fists, and went back to sit down.
Gongsun Zhen and the other two did not say a word from beginning to end, and each of them took a seat.
"With the last lot sold, today's auction is coming to an end... Thank you all for coming."
After saying a few polite words, Li Xiunian announced the end and left the auction stage.
The scene became noisy as Li Xiunian walked off the stage.
Some people smiled as they got what they wanted at the auction.
Some people frowned, feeling that they gained nothing and had made a wasted trip.
"Beizi, let's go get something."
Xiao Chen stood up and said to Wang Pingbei.
"Brother Chen... Gongsun Zhen won't do anything, right?"
Wang Pingbei was very worried.
"Don't worry, it won't be that fast."
Xiao Chen shook his head and picked up the formation plate on the table.
"Let's go, return this thing to Zhao Ritian first."
"good."
Wang Pingbei nodded and followed Xiao Chen out of the box.
As soon as the two came out of the box, they attracted countless eyes.
It has to be said that at this auction, Xiao Chen was the person who bought the most items...
They are not here to attend the auction, they are clearly here to purchase goods.
Not to mention the big guys on the second floor, many people on the first floor had the idea of robbing Xiao Chen.
Money can move people's hearts.
"There's a lot of murderous intent."
Although Xiao Chen did not release his spiritual sense, he could still clearly sense the murderous intent.
However, he didn't care. Whoever dared to take advantage of him would have to pay the price.
Xiao Chen looked around, retracted his gaze, and went to the box where Zhao Cangqiong was.
"Ancestor, why did he go to Zhao Cangqiong? Zhao Cangqiong won't protect him, right?"
Gongsun Liang saw this and said with some worry.
"No."
Gongsun Zhen shook his head.
"Zhao Cangqiong knows what to do and what not to do... He will not do, nor dare to do, anything that destroys unity."
"That's good."
Gongsun Liang nodded. He didn't want anyone to help Xiao Chen.
"City Lord Zhao..."
Inside the box, Xiao Chen bowed towards Zhao Cangqiong.
"Thanks for rescuing me just now."
"hehe."
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Zhao Cangqiong smiled and waved his hands.
"I wanted to take this hide, but it doesn't count as a rescue..."
"Brother Chen, were you just shouting for fun?"
Zhao Ritian took the formation plate and asked.
"Yeah, just to join in the fun, but I didn't expect... no one would raise the price."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Thanks to Brother Zhao for the formation plate, which saved me a lot of trouble."
"Nothing...Brother Chen, be careful."
Zhao Ritian reminded.
"I don't want to find someone to deliver the storage device after I refine it."
"Oh, no."
Xiao Chen smiled and didn't stay for long.
"City Lord Zhao, Brother Zhao, I'm going to go get the things I took pictures of first..."
"I heard that you guys planned to drink tonight?"
Suddenly, Zhao Cangqiong asked.
“Young people, you should get together more often.”
Xiao Chen was surprised to hear what Zhao Cangqiong said.
He thought that at this time, Zhao Cangqiong would let Zhao Ritian and Zhao Yuanji stay away from him.
After all, there are many people targeting him, and Zhao Ritian and Zhao Yuanji often represent Zhao Cangqiong's attitude.
"Third brother, won't it have any impact?"
Zhao Ritian was also surprised and asked.
"How can your young people's affairs affect me... Which young people listen to their parents?"
Zhao Cangqiong smiled.
“Young people getting together cannot be considered as destroying unity.”
"Understood."
Zhao Ritian also laughed.
"City Lord Zhao, I'm going to go get the items first. We... have a long way to go."
Xiao Chen bowed and said nothing more.
"Well, go ahead."
Zhao Cangqiong nodded and watched Xiao Chen leave.
"Grandpa, are you really going to let us drink with Chen Xiao tonight?"
Zhao Yuanji asked hurriedly.
"Or... do you want to attack him?"
"You kid...even if I have an idea, I won't use you two."
Zhao Cangqiong curled his lips.
"Even Xiao Chen doesn't doubt me, your grandfather, but you actually do?"
"Hey, that's good."
Zhao Yuanji felt relieved.
"Third brother, what will you do with the animal skin?"
Zhao Ritian was more interested in the animal skins that were related to the inheritance of Emperor Xuanyuan.
"Later, I will invite them to the City Lord's Mansion and have a chat."
Zhao Cangqiong said slowly.
"It is highly likely that one person will make a copy, and then each person will take out spirit stones for these 20,000! As for who can find Emperor Xuanyuan's inheritance, it depends on their own means and luck."
"If it's true, then Emperor Xuanyuan's legacy will be revealed soon? And that magic sword..."
Zhao Ritian's eyes lit up. Emperor Xuanyuan was one of the human emperors and stood at the top of mankind.
“It’s hard to say. It’s said that Xiao Chen rose to prominence after he obtained the Xuanyuan Blade and the inheritance of Emperor Xuanyuan… Maybe Emperor Xuanyuan’s inheritance is not in the Heaven Beyond Heaven, but in the Mother Realm.”
Zhao Cangqiong shook his head.
"It is also because of this that we have reached an agreement... When it comes to Emperor Xuanyuan's inheritance, the four forces will have to dispute."
"Too."
Zhao Ritian nodded.
"But no matter whether it's true or not, there is always hope... Third brother, if you go to Xuanyuan Realm, remember to take me with you."
"Take me too."
Zhao Yuanji said hurriedly.
"What if I'm lucky enough to inherit it?"
"Silly boy... do you think you are the protagonist?"
Zhao Cangqiong looked at Zhao Yuanji and cursed with a smile.
