Hai Bodong Makes His Move, Yuan Yi's Expression Changes Drastically

Hai Bodong released his ice-attribute Dou Qi, and in an instant, the powerful Dou Qi caused the temperature in the entire auction house to drop sharply.

Ice crystals covered the surface of every object in the auction house.

A terrifying aura spread, and in an instant, everyone present realized something.

This guy who stood there silently, seemingly just an ordinary waiter, was actually a Dou Emperor!

"What, what a joke!" Fan Ling stood up, his legs trembling, his mind completely unable to comprehend what was happening before his eyes.

He only bid a few times and made a few sarcastic remarks, and now he has to face such a powerful figure?!

This feeling that he's being subtly targeted by the entire world... this guy is definitely Dou Emperor!

They're both Dou Emperor, so why are they so respectful to another person?

"Young Master, run!" Fan Ling's bodyguard shouted in response.

Those assigned to be Fan Ling's personal guards are undoubtedly loyal; even when facing Dou Emperor, they suppress their fear to protect Fan Ling.

Fan Ling's mind raced. He realized that his father was waiting outside the auction house on the only way out, planning to ambush anyone other than himself who had bought the most and most valuable items.

Therefore, as long as she can escape outside and find her father, she will be saved!

Hai Bodong attacked Fan Ling's personal guards, seemingly toying with them without rushing to kill them. His icy Dou Qi condensed into Mystic Ice Spear, and with each thrust, he froze the limbs of Fan Ling's personal guards into ice sculptures, which were then pierced through.

Fan Ling rushed towards the exit, only to find it completely sealed off by mysterious ice. He stared wide-eyed in despair, using all his strength to strike the several-meter-thick ice barrier, still unwilling to give up... His will to survive was truly strong.

At the same time, after instructing Hai Bodong to take action, Xiao Yan himself appeared on the crystal platform in a flash, his gaze falling on the seemingly ordinary fragment of the Demonic Lotus Flame Fragment Map on the auction stage.

After scanning the auction stage with his Soul Power and confirming that it only had protective devices and no destructive devices, Xiao Yan began to take action.

As he reached out, he couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time, "What a fool! Even if the Black-Seal Auction House had installed destructive devices, it couldn't possibly destroy the Demonic Lotus Flame Fragment Map."

At this moment, the white-haired old man suddenly spoke up, "No, sir!"

Xiao Yan snapped out of his daze, glanced up at him, and remained unmoved.

The white-haired old man's expression turned urgent, and he quickly said, "You disliked the other guests, and it's understandable that you targeted them, but please don't forcibly snatch the items. Please abide by the auction house rules!"

Xiao Yan remained unmoved. With a flick of his finger, the protective shield covering the Demonic Lotus Flame Fragment Map shattered instantly, causing the white-haired old man's pupils to shrink sharply.

Although that protective shield wasn't as powerful as the special protective device used on the key auction items, capable of stopping Dou Emperor, it was still enough to give Dou Wang expert a lot of trouble. How could it be broken through with just a finger from this person? What kind of terrifying guy is this!

Xiao Yan put the Demonic Lotus Flame Fragment Map into his Storage Ring, and his heart calmed down.

His gaze shifted to the area behind the crystal display stand where the auction items were stored.

At that very moment, on the second floor of the auction house, an aura powerful enough to stir up the energy of heaven and earth suddenly appeared.

"Enough, young friend. I, your sect leader, can give you this fragment of the painting for free, but please do not let it affect the subsequent auctions."

Otherwise... that would mean becoming an enemy of the Eight-Fan Sect!

The sound came from the second floor, carrying with it Dou Qi, and broke the ice surface inside the auction hall.

The ice barrier at the auction house exit was also shattered.

Clearly, Yuan Yi wanted to give Fan Ling a way out and was unwilling to offend the Blood Sect.

"Hahaha!" Fan Ling couldn't contain his joy and thanked him aloud, "Sect Master Yuan, my father will never forget your help today!"

Yuan Yi's voice came from the second floor, saying calmly, "I was just maintaining order in the auction house; I didn't intend to target or protect anyone."

Fan Ling twitched the corner of his mouth, inwardly cursing Yuan Yi for being two-faced.

The reason they didn't act earlier was because they didn't want to offend that ice-attribute Dou Emperor because of him.

As a result, the masked man only intervened after snatching the item from the auction, offending the man before trying to help him escape in order to gain a favor. It's disgusting!

Thinking this to himself, Fan Ling said nothing and quickly ran towards the exit.

Boom!

Hai Bodong blasted Fan Ling's guards to death with a single shot, his expression turning cold as he instantly conjured Xuanbing once more.

This time, he didn't play around. He froze Fan Ling into an ice sculpture, completely extinguishing his life force.

Even as he lay dying, Fan Ling thought he could escape, his face bearing a resentful expression, clearly intending to retaliate later.

"Insolence!" He raised his Mystic Ice Spear, its tip pointing at the second floor of the auction house.

He had already sensed Yuan Yi's aura, but he was only a low- Dou Emperor, whom he could easily kill. If he allowed Yuan Yi to ruin Xiao Yan's plans, he would have no face to face Xiao Yan.

Hai Bodong unfurled his Dou Qi Wings behind him, releasing his full power and reaching a new level.

The icy Dou Qi spread once more, enveloping the entire auction house.

Ice crystals covered the surfaces of all the objects, causing everyone in the auction hall to shiver.

Even worse, those who had mocked and ridiculed Xiao Yan seemed to have turned into ice sculptures, exploding with a 'bang!' into ice shards that landed on the cheeks of those nearby.

On the second floor of the auction house, Yuan Yi's momentum faltered, suppressed by Hai Bodong's imposing presence, and he dared not venture out recklessly.

"A high-level Dou Emperor!" Yuan Yi swallowed hard, his gaze piercing through the darkness as he landed on Hai Bodong in the auction house.

He never expected that Hai Bodong was not only Dou Emperor, but also a high-star Dou Emperor who was extremely rare in the entire Black-Corner Region and could be considered a true powerhouse!

Both being Dou Emperor, this low- Dou Emperor probably couldn't even withstand three of the opponent's shots.

"Damn it!" Yuan Yi cursed under his breath, instantly hating Fan Ling.

If Fan Ling hadn't repeatedly made sarcastic remarks, angering this important figure from who-knows-where, that important figure would clearly have preferred to acquire the item through auction.

"Get out here!" Hai Bodong's voice echoed in the auction hall.

Yuan Yi's expression was grim. He closed his eyes and tried to control himself for a moment before forcing a smile and flying out of the second floor, appearing in the auction house.

He looked at the imposing Hai Bodong, smiled obsequiously, and cupped his hands. "Sir, what are your orders?"

Hai Bodong sneered, "Don't play dumb with me!"

"Why did you deliberately break through the ice wall just now to let the Blood Sect's young master escape?"

Yuan Yi looked miserable and dared not argue. He said humbly, "Sir, I was bewitched and wanted to do his father a favor, that's why I did it."

Hai Bodong glanced at him, then turned to Xiao Yan: "Young friend, what should we do?"

Yuan Yi shuddered, suddenly realizing...

Although Hai Bodong was a high-star Dou Emperor and an absolute powerhouse in the entire Black-Corner Region, he seemed to have always been led by this young man wearing Flame Mask.

Who is this young man wearing the Flame Mask?
