Joint auction
Nalan Jie didn't ask too many questions, but instead looked at Nalan Yanran, who was standing behind Nalan Su, and asked with a smile, "Yan Ran, what do you think?"
Nalan Yanran was completely flustered at this moment, and could only stammer, "I will... I will follow Father and Grandfather's arrangements!"
Upon hearing this, Nalan Su knew that the girl had definitely agreed. However, the old man strongly supported this marriage, although he didn't think much of the Xiao Clan. Later, unexpectedly, the Xiao Clan produced two true dragons, Xiao Yan and Xiao Yu. Now, the Xiao Clan is someone the Nalan Family looks up to.
It wasn't that the Nalan Family was opportunistic; it was simply that as a father, he naturally didn't want his daughter to suffer. Later, after the Xiao Clan rose to prominence, he became more open-minded, as long as his daughter was happy. Now, Nalan Su was also happy for Yan Ran, as she had found a good home, even though the process had been somewhat bumpy!
Thinking of this, Nalan Su looked at Xiao Yan with a serious expression and said, "Xiao Yan, as Nalan Yanran's father, although your current strength has probably surpassed mine, I still have to remind you of a few things. From now on, Yan Ran is in your care. Don't bully her, or I will fight to the death to get justice for Yan Ran!"
Although Xiao Yan had some resentment towards the Nalan Family in the past, he had come to terms with it much more now. Hearing Nalan Su's words, he knew they came from a father's heart, and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Don't worry, Uncle, I will definitely treat Yan Ran well from now on!"
Nalan Yanran stood behind, her eyes red as she looked at her father. Although her father was strict with her, he truly loved her the most!
The rest was easy to handle. After discussing the wedding arrangements, the two families held a joyous banquet, which was quite lively.
Compared to the bustling Imperial Capital, Xiao Yu's journey was rather monotonous. When passing through the mountains, he would search for some medicinal herbs and occasionally encounter some seventh-tier magical beasts. However, since there were several Dou Zong in his group, he didn't have to worry about their personal safety.
Soon, Xiao Yu and his group arrived at the Black Domain Plains on the outskirts of the Black Corner Region!
Xiao Yi Xian and the members of the Poison Sect had never been to the Black Corner Region before, so they were quite shocked when they saw this vast black plain that stretched to the horizon!
"Is this the Black Domain Plains?" Xiao Yi Xian murmured.
Xiao Yu, however, relaxed as if he were back home, and laughed heartily, "That's right, but only after crossing this Black Domain Plains will we truly arrive in the Black Corner Region. Only there will you be able to experience the chaos and carnage of the Black Corner Region!"
Upon hearing this, the elders of the Poison Sect were eager to try their luck. As for killing, they had killed quite a few people in the Poison Sect back then, but they had heard about how chaotic the Black Corner Region was, and that was what they wanted to see for themselves!
Xiao Yu naturally noticed the expressions on these people's faces, chuckled lightly but didn't say anything. Here, he could only experience the Black Corner Region on his own!
"Let's go!" Xiao Yu said, then flew forward again, and the others immediately followed.
Soon, led by Xiao Yu, they crossed the Black Domain Plains and truly set foot on the Black Corner Region. Everyone felt a bloody aura rushing towards them!
Xiao Yu led them directly into Black Seal City. This place was originally the territory of the Eight Fan Sect, but unfortunately, they chose to stand on Han Feng's side, so it has now become the territory of the Underworld!
They arrived at a Commerce Hall in the Black Seal City Underworld. This Commerce Hall was located in a magnificent hall in Black Seal City. The hall door was marked with the symbol of the Underworld, a dark golden flame, which was Xiao Yu's Chaos Flame. Of course, besides the Underworld's Pill Hall, the symbol of the Pill Hall was also Chaos Flame, but it was a pill cauldron formed by dark golden flame!
The guards at the entrance of the Commerce Hall didn't make things difficult for the group. After all, the Commerce Hall was open for business, and there was no reason to turn away customers.
They arrived at the interior of the Commerce Hall without any hindrance. After looking around, Xiao Yu smiled and said, "It seems the Underworld is developing quite well; it's become rather extravagant!"
As he spoke, Xiao Yu went to the front desk, where a friendly receptionist asked gently, "Hello, how can I help you?"
Xiao Yu took out a dark-colored token and handed it to the maid. The maid took it and her expression changed immediately. This was Elder Token that only the elders in the Underworld possessed. Only those with extremely strong strength and high status in the Underworld could possess such an Elder Token!
"Greetings, Elder. You may call me Xiaolian. I'll go and fetch the manager to see you!" Xiaolian Xiao Yu with some trepidation.
Xiao Yu chuckled and said, "Alright, go and come back quickly!"
Xiaolian hurriedly ran towards the third floor of the Commerce Hall. Xiao Yu shook his head and smiled, "Ya Fei is so thoughtful. This elder is really useful!"
Yun Yun said calmly from the side, "You are the Mansion Lord of the Underworld, what do you need an Elder Token for?"
"The Mansion Lord Token is with my elder brother. Since I'm not around, he's practically the Mansion Lord. I only need an Elder Token; there's no need for all this trouble!" Xiao Yu said.
Currently, only a few people, including Yun Yun, Cai Lin, Ya Fei, Zi Yan, Xiao Zhan, Xiao Li, Hai Bodong, possess this Elder Token. It allows them to act freely within the Underworld and to freely obtain medicinal herbs and other necessary items from the Mittel Family!
Soon, Xiaolian came down from the third floor with a middle-aged man with a mustache. Upon seeing Xiao Yu and the others, she immediately greeted them with a smile, saying, "Greetings, Elder. I am the manager of the Black Seal City Commerce Hall. You may call me Gao Zhiyang!"
"Supervisor Gao, I've come to ask about the business activities of the Commerce Hall, which now span the entire Black Corner Region. Has anything like the aforementioned incident occurred in the Black Corner Region during this period?" Xiao Yu asked.
Gao Zhiyang frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Reporting to the elder, there's nothing serious. However, recently our caravan has had some friction with the Black Emperor Sect and the Magic Flame Valley. These are minor matters, and in ten days, the Mittel Grand Auction House will be holding a joint auction with the Black Emperor Sect!"
Xiao Yu looked at him with some surprise and said, "Oh? Are you sure it's an auction jointly organized by the Black Emperor Sect and the Mittel Family?"
Gao Zhiyang nodded and said, "Yes, Elder, and this auction is being held in Black Emperor City. Over a hundred forces, large and small, from the entire Black Corner Region have been invited. Our Underworld Mansion Lord Xiao Ding and Miss Ya Fei of the Mittel Family have already gone there!"
Xiao Yu frowned deeply. The Black Emperor Sect and the Magic Flame Valley were no good. An auction? It seemed there was such a thing in the original story, but he didn't expect it to be related to Mittel and the Underworld this time!
"Alright, since that's the case, you can go ahead and get busy!" After asking about the matter, Xiao Yu let Gao Zhiyang leave.
"What do we do now? Should we go to Black Emperor City?" Cai Lin asked Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu looked at Cai Lin and nodded, saying, "Let's go over there. Something's likely to happen!"
Afterwards, Xiao Yu sent several elders of the Poison Sect and the five Dou Zong he had summoned to Maple City with the Elder Token, while Xiao Yu and his companions continued their journey to Black Emperor City!
