The Blood Sect's young master, Fan Ling, stared at Xiao Tian with icy eyes for a moment before turning to the old man on the auction stage and coldly snorted, "Three million one hundred thousand!"
The Blood Sect elder frowned, but after thinking about it, he decided not to stop it.
Xiao Tian felt the price was about right, so he didn't want to risk paying the price himself. Besides, he figured that Yuan Yi, the leader of the Eight Gates, had probably investigated his identity from various angles, and that his identity might have been exposed to the Blood Sect, Black Skull Tomb, and other Black-Corner Region forces.
"What are you waiting for! Hurry up and finalize the deal!" Fan Ling hated Xiao Tian and glared at the old man on the auction stage.
The old man smiled, and the auction was settled.
In a corner, hidden in the darkness, Xiao Yan witnessed everything. He frowned slightly, feeling a sense of familiarity with the black-robed man next to Elder Qing of the Heavenly Snake Mansion.
Yao Lao: " Xiao Yan, you seem to be paying close attention to the people of the Heavenly Snake Mansion. This force is among the top on the continent and should not be underestimated."
"Teacher, it's said that the perfect-quality Dou Ling Pill was refined by the black-robed man from the Heavenly Snake Mansion. Teacher, do you think Sixth-Rank Alchemist could refine such a perfect-quality Dou Ling Pill?"
The Yao Lao chuckled, "Possibly, but firstly, you need Heavenly Flames, and the refining technique must be incredibly advanced. I, for one, even with the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, wouldn't be able to reach that level among Sixth-Rank Alchemist. But don't underestimate yourself, young man. The Dou Qi Continent is vast, teeming with talent and geniuses. Whether you can reach the pinnacle is still uncertain. Be yourself, and start from the heart."
"Um."
"Next up for auction is a rare medicinal herb called Dragon Whisker Ice Fire Fruit. Those who know its effects will understand. Since the owner has no trouble selling it, the starting price is 500,000 gold coins, and each bid must be at least 100,000 gold coins higher." The old man on the auction stage smiled.
Xiao Yan's heart stirred; coming to the Black Seal Auction House was definitely the right decision.
The price quickly rose from 500,000 gold coins to 900,000. Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and bid, "1,100,000."
At this moment, Xiao Tian, who had been drinking juice and looking a bit listless, suddenly perked up. He felt that the voice was very familiar, even though Xiao Yan tried his best to lower his voice and pretend to be mature.
But as the eldest brother, he knows his younger brother all too well.
Xiao Tian's powerful Spiritual Soul Power quietly sensed that the source of the sound was a person in a black robe, and an ancient black ring on his finger made him secretly happy.
"Foolish little brother, you really came."
"One million two hundred thousand gold coins!" Fan Ling, the young sect leader of the Blood Sect, also made a bid.
Xiao Tian raised an eyebrow, glanced at Fan Ling, and thought to himself, "He dares to make my little brother Er Huo lose money; I'll make him suffer a terrible death later."
Fan Ling seemed to sense something, and his Heavenly Eye's, his gaze suddenly turning gloomy and ruthless.
"Heh! Your eyes are quite sharp!" Xiao Tian's lips curled into a mocking smile, and his left eye transformed into Three-Tomoe Sharingan, its eerie light flashing slightly, making Fan Ling feel dizzy.
When Fan Ling came to his senses, he saw that the item being auctioned was a bottle of Three-Pattern Clear Spirit Pill, and his expression turned quite ugly.
"Young Sect Master, what's wrong?" The Blood Sect elder beside him frowned.
"It's nothing." Fan Ling glanced at Xiao Tian, his heart filled with gloom, knowing that he had just sought out the Heavenly Snake Mansion's pupil technique.
" Heavenly Snake Mansion! Hmph! I'll settle this score with you properly!"
As the perfect-quality Dou Ling Pill appeared, Xiao Tian sensed that the Dou Wang in the shadows was breathing heavily. Even Elder Qing beside him tensed up, her beautiful eyes fixed on the pill inside the jade bottle.
