"Friends, I am Chang Ling. May I have the pleasure of your acquaintance?" A man in black approached Xiao Tian and his group, clasping his hands in greeting.
"Chang Ling?" Upon hearing this, Su Kui quickly whispered to Xiao Tian, "Brother Xiao, this Chang Ling hails from a mid-level dynasty and has received the legacy of an ancient sect. He is a peak Three Yuan Nirvana stage expert. Recently, he single-handedly annihilated a high-level dynasty that had been opposing him."
Xiao Tian cupped his hands in return. "So it's Brother Chang. I've heard a lot about you."
"My reputation is nothing compared to yours, Brother Xiao," Chang Ling said sincerely. "Even your friend Lin Dong far surpasses me."
"Just lucky, I guess," Lin Dong said, scratching his head shyly.
Chang Ling smiled and changed the topic. "Brother Xiao, Brother Lin, have you come to Wanxiang City for the auction in two days?"
"Indeed," Xiao Tian nodded. "I heard there will be a Heaven-level spiritual treasure at the Wanxiang Auction. I wonder if it's true."
Earth-level spiritual treasures weren't very useful to him anymore, but Heaven-level ones would be just right for his current cultivation level. Of course, once he broke through to the Dou Zun level, Heaven-level treasures would also become less effective.
"The rumor is true," a clear, cold voice suddenly interjected. A graceful figure in white walked over. The woman was extremely beautiful, but exuded an unapproachable coldness, like a thousand-year-old ice.
"Brother Xiao, this is Mu Hanyue. She is backed by a super dynasty," Su Kui whispered again.
Xiao Tian nodded slightly and smiled. "Thank you for the information, Miss Mu."
Mu Hanyue gave a slight nod and glanced deeply at Xiao Tian before turning and walking away, not showing too much enthusiasm.
Chang Ling looked envious. "Brother Xiao, Mu Hanyue is a famous beauty in Wanxiang City, backed by the Solitary Moon Dynasty. Only someone of your caliber could catch her eye."
Xiao Tian shook his head without a word. Mu Hanyue, from a super dynasty, thought she could make him fall for her, but she was overestimating herself. Compared to Ling Qingzhu, in terms of background, talent, or beauty, Mu Hanyue was far inferior.
Chang Ling, sensing the opportunity, casually said, "Brother Xiao, given your outstanding performance today, you might attract the attention of those super dynasties. They might try to recruit you."
"Super dynasties mean nothing to me," Xiao Tian said proudly.
Hearing this, Chang Ling breathed a sigh of relief. After chatting a bit more, he took his leave.
After Chang Ling left, Xiao Tian said to Su Kui, "Brother Su, I want to see the auction in two days."
"Brother Xiao, I'll arrange everything," Su Kui quickly responded.
...
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. As the news of the Heaven-level spiritual treasure spread, more and more experts arrived in Wanxiang City. A Heaven-level spiritual treasure was incredibly powerful, and whoever obtained it would undoubtedly stand out in the upcoming Hundred Dynasties Battle.
With so much anticipation, the Wanxiang Auction finally arrived. The auction was held at a massive coliseum in the northern part of the city. Even with the city packed with people, the coliseum could still accommodate everyone attending the auction.
When Xiao Tian and his group arrived at the coliseum, it was already crowded.
"Brother Xiao!" Not far away, Chang Ling led a group of people over. He glanced at Su Rou beside Xiao Tian and then said to Xiao Tian, "Brother Xiao, I heard you had some friction with the Fengyun Dynasty. They are determined to get the Heaven-level spiritual treasure at this auction. If they succeed, they will surely use it against anyone they have grudges with. I'm afraid you will be their first target."
"Thank you for the warning, Brother Chang. I'll be careful," Xiao Tian said with a smile. He wasn't particularly concerned about the Fengyun Dynasty. Even if they obtained the Heaven-level treasure, they wouldn't be a match for him, a Dou Zun.
Hearing Chang Ling's words, Su Kui anxiously whispered to Xiao Tian, "Brother Xiao, the Fengyun Dynasty is very powerful. I think you should skip this auction and leave with Little Rou as soon as possible."
Xiao Tian said calmly, "Don't worry. With their strength, I can still protect Little Rou."
"Brother Xiao, why don't you extract the energy from Little Rou's body, but please don't harm her," Su Kui suggested, still unsure why Xiao Tian would protect them after just one encounter.
"Brother Su, don't overthink it," Xiao Tian said. "I see great potential in Little Rou. If she can control that power, she will become a formidable force in the future. It's better to befriend her now. If I face difficulties in the future, I can seek her help."
Although he said this, Xiao Tian had already decided to add Su Rou to his harem. With her great potential, how could he let her go?
Su Kui was momentarily stunned but then nodded in agreement.
Soon, it was time to enter the venue. They followed the crowd into the coliseum and sat in the front rows. The five super dynasties took their seats in the most prominent positions with a flamboyant air.
When the leaders of the Fengyun Dynasty appeared, they arrogantly declared, "This Heaven-level spiritual treasure at the auction is something our Fengyun Dynasty is determined to obtain. I want to see who dares to snatch it from us!"
Naturally, this caused a lot of dissatisfaction. After all, many people were there for the Heaven-level treasure. However, due to the Fengyun Dynasty's strength, most people kept their grievances to themselves.
The two leaders of the Fengyun Dynasty glanced coldly at Xiao Tian, their eyes filled with murderous intent. It was unclear if they were wary of Xiao Tian or the super sect hosting the auction, but they did not make a move.
Once everyone was seated, a middle-aged man in gray appeared on the central platform. His expression was calm, unaffected by the countless eyes on him. His mere presence commanded respect from the crowd.
"That is Song Tai, the guardian of Wanxiang City from a super sect. Even the super dynasties do not dare to disobey him," Su Kui said, his tone filled with awe.
Xiao Tian nodded. He knew that although Song Tai had never shown his strength, his power was extraordinary. Any super dynasty foolish enough to challenge him would be swiftly eliminated.
