Mo Tianxing of the Black Emperor Sect

As they were speaking, Xiao Yu saw that the group from Magic Flame Valley had already walked up to them and stood right in front of Wu Hao, looking down at Wu Hao, Hu Jia, and the fifteen Jia Nan Academy students behind them.

Xiao Yu also got a clear look at the Old Man Eagle Claw leading the group. The old man had a dark complexion, a short stature, and a sinister look between his brows. In particular, his exposed hands were unusually large, and his fingers were unusually long, gleaming with a cold, razor-sharp light in the setting sun.

Xie Zhen sneered at Wu Hao and said, "Isn't this someone from the Jia Nan Academy? What? Haven't you people from the Jia Nan Academy been scared by the people from Magic Flame Valley these past few days? You still dare to swagger around here?"

The students from the Jia Nan Academy were so angry at Xie Zhen's words that their faces turned ashen, but they couldn't refute them. First, what Xie Zhen said was true. Second, Xie Zhen's strength was at the Dou Emperor level, and the two middle-aged men standing behind Xie Zhen were also Dou Wang. The rest of them were all at the Dou Ling level. Even with the three elders, their group of students only had the strength of Dou Wang!

However, just because they dared not speak out did not mean that Xiao Yu dared not speak out. Moreover, Xiao Yu was also a member of the Jia Nan Academy. When Xie Zhen insulted the people of the Jia Nan Academy, wasn't he also insulting Xiao Yu?

So Xiao Yu stepped forward and said with a faint smile, "Where did this old bastard come from, shouting at me like that?"

Xiao Yu's thuggish appearance surprised everyone who knew him. Xie Zhen, standing in front of him, roared furiously, "You little bastard, who are you calling a slut?"

"You old bastard, I'm cursing you!" Xiao Yu retorted without any politeness.

"You're courting death!" Xie Zhen's eyes turned bloodshot with rage, his hands forming claws. The icy aura he exuded caused everyone from the Jia Nan Academy to flinch. The Dou Zong guards standing behind Xiao Yu were about to make their move when Xiao Yu stopped them.

Xiao Yu glanced at Zi Yan and said, "I can tell you've been itching for a fight for a while now, so I'll give you this chance!"

Zi Yan was slightly taken aback, then a mischievous smile bloomed on her face, and she nodded, saying, "Okay!"

As they were talking, Xie Zhen stomped his foot hard on the ground, and like a large bird, he pounced on Xiao Yu. Seeing Xiao Yu seemingly frozen in place, a vicious smile crept onto Xie Zhen's lips. It was just a human life, so what if he died? Just as Xie Zhen's hand was about to crush Xiao Yu's throat, another small, snow-white hand suddenly clenched into a fist and slammed down hard on Xie Zhen!

The whistling sound of that small fist as it swung sent a jolt through Xie Zhen's mind. "A master!"

Forced by this punch, Xie Zhen had no choice but to abandon his assassination attempt on Xiao Yu. He turned his body and swung his hand to the side, clang!

A sharp, metallic clang rang out, and Xie Zhen felt a tremendous force coming from his arm, causing him to stagger backward. The owner of that small fist was none other than Zi Yan!

The moment their fists clashed, a powerful gust of wind suddenly erupted from the point of contact, causing many students of the Jia Nan Academy to sway and stagger. Wu Hao, Hu Jia, Xiao Yu, and others had no choice but to step in to help them stabilize themselves!

Xie Zhen staggered back more than ten steps before finally stopping, looking at Zi Yan with a somewhat shocked expression and saying, "You, you're actually Dou Huang expert too?"

Xie Zhen initially thought this little girl was only at the Dou Ling level, but who knew she possessed such immense strength that even he, a Dou Emperor, felt somewhat uncomfortable. However, Xie Zhen couldn't sense even a trace of Dou Emperor aura from Zi Yan, which truly puzzled him!

Zi Yan raised her fist and said fiercely, "My fist doesn't discriminate, you old bastard! If you say another bad word about him, I'll punch you to death!"

"You!" Xie Zhen was even more furious to be called an old bastard again. However, this little girl didn't look strong, but her strength was extremely terrifying, which made Xie Zhen even angrier!

Standing next to Zi Yan, Xiao Yu tapped Zi Yan on the head and said, "No swearing, and no calling yourself 'Master'!"

Zi Yan covered her mouth, pouting with a hint of grievance, and said, "Why did you hit my head? I'm not smart to begin with, and you already said that!"

Seeing Zi Yan's somewhat unconvinced expression, Xiao Yu chuckled and said, "As long as you don't swear, I won't hit you next time!"

"Hmph!" Zi Yan pouted and turned away angrily, while Xie Zhen, on the other side, glanced coldly at everyone. This little girl's strength was about the same as his, and there were also three Inner Academy elders from the Jia Nan Academy beside them. After considering the situation for a moment, Xie Zhen said, "Let's go!"

Watching Xie Zhen lead his men toward Black Emperor City, Cai Lin frowned slightly and asked, "Just let them go?"

Xiao Yu turned and glanced at Cai Lin, saying, "What else? Kill him here? Look at the people around us. If we cause trouble here, I think the people of Black Emperor City will find out very quickly. Don't forget, we still need to find out if the Soul Hall is behind the Black Emperor Sect and Magic Flame Valley!"

Upon hearing this, Cai Lin remained silent. After glancing at the people around him, Xiao Yu said calmly, "Let's go, into the city!"

The group marched in a grand procession towards the Black Emperor City.

Inside a grand hall of the Black Emperor Sect, Mo Ya, dressed in white, stood before his father Mo Tianxing, and said, "Father, most of the forces invited to this auction have arrived in Black Emperor City. I have already assigned people to closely monitor the Underworld and the Mittel Family to ensure everything goes smoothly!"

The elderly man in yellow robes sitting at the head of the main hall was Mo Tianxing, the sect leader of the Black Emperor Sect. He glanced at Mo Ya and said, "I understand. This auction is no small matter. Be careful, and also, avoid contact with the people from Magic Flame Valley!"

Upon hearing Mo Tianxing's words, Mo Ya trembled and hurriedly said, "Father, the Magic Flame Valley sent people here this time wanting to gain some benefits at the auction and exchange information with our Black Emperor Sect. I haven't agreed to this yet, please enlighten me, Father!"

Mo Tianxing's sharp gaze fell upon Mo Ya as he pondered, "We should agree to what we should agree to. This time, our Black Emperor Sect and Magic Flame Valley can cooperate in some ways. Presumably, the people of Magic Flame Valley have been instructed by someone else. But remember, do not cooperate too deeply, otherwise, that old ghost is not someone to be trifled with!"

Mo Ya let out a soft breath and said, "Yes, Father, then I'll go and prepare!"

After Mo Tianxing watched Mo Ya leave in silence, a figure suddenly appeared beside Mo Tianxing, kneeling respectfully and saying, "Sect Master, the people from Magic Flame Valley have entered the city, but it seems they've clashed with the people from the Jia Nan Academy outside the city!"

"Oh? What was the result?" Mo Tianxing asked, somewhat surprised.

The man said, "There's a little girl at the Jia Nan Academy who seems quite strong. She blocked Old Man Eagle Claw Xie Zhen's attack in one move. I guess her strength is no less than that of Dou Emperor!"

Mo Tianxing frowned slightly and said, "Okay, I understand. Keep an eye on it!"

"Yes!" the person replied and disappeared again.
