While Lin Tian was secretly contemplating, Ye Yuanshu exchanged a few words of cold greeting with everyone before his gaze swept over and settled on Xi Zirong.

The moment Ye Yuanshu’s eyes fixed on her, a surprise flickered across his face, and then he stepped towards Xi Zirong.

Seeing Ye Yuanshu approach, Xi Zirong’s lovely face changed, and she quickly hid Lin Tian behind Yaya and Zhuzhu, solemnly saying, “Stand still and keep quiet!”

“Young Master Ye!”

Xi Zirong stepped out of the crowd and, with a slight curtsy towards Ye Yuanshu, greeted him with respect.

Having come to a halt, Ye Yuanshu appraised Xi Zirong, his smile growing more pronounced.

Suddenly, Ye Yuanshu stepped forward and lifted Xi Zirong’s chin, licking his lips he said, “Not bad, not bad.

I was born with the Thunder Yang Pulse and can sense the intense Thunder Yin Qi within your body!

Once you have my favor, even if you can no longer practice cultivation, you will still have a certain status!

This is of immense benefit, not just to your family, but to Leizhou Mountain too!”

Xi Zirong’s body trembled violently, her face turning deathly pale, but she still struggled to suppress the terror and helplessness in her heart.

“Thank you for your kindness, Young Master Ye!”

Lei Hongrui and Xi Junmai, among others, were overjoyed, bowing profusely in gratitude.

Meanwhile, Yaya and Zhuzhu could only bite their lips in a display of helplessness.

The other sects present all showed looks of envy.

Having a connection with the Immortal Sect families of Sword Saint Mountain was an opportunity for an entire sect and family to soar to greatness!

Damn it!

Watching Xi Zirong’s chin being lifted by Ye Yuanshu, Lin Tian felt inexplicably irked and was about to step forward.

But he was held back by Yaya, who whispered, “What are you doing?

Do you want to drag my second senior sister to her death?

The background of that young man over there is beyond your imagination, an existence you cannot fathom!

Don’t do anything foolish!

Just stay put until the auction is over!”

Lin Tian frowned, but then halted his steps.

Fine, I also want to see what this auction has to offer.

Afterwards, I’ll deal with him!

Lin Tian snickered secretly.

“Haha, Young Master Ye has arrived!

Surely everyone else is here too!

Then please come with me, the auction is about to begin!”

Followng a burst of elderly laughter, an aged figure with silver hair and a white beard appeared at the edge of the plaza, smiling and gesturing to everyone.

“It’s Housekeeper Qian from the Night Crying Island auction!”

Many recognized the old figure that appeared and exclaimed in surprise.

“Greetings to Housekeeper Qian!”

By this time, even Ye Yuanshu was very polite to the newly appeared elder.

“You are too courteous, Young Master Ye!”

Housekeeper Qian returned the greeting with a smile and said to the others, “Ladies and gentlemen, please follow me!”

Having said that, Housekeeper Qian led the way.

The Night Crying Island consisted of two isles, large and small, connected by a natural strip of land with tall palm trees on both sides.

Stepping onto the larger island, the guests followed Housekeeper Qian into the auction house.

It was spacious inside; capable of accommodating thousands of people simultaneously without feeling crowded.

With only over a hundred people arriving, it seemed remarkably empty.

“Welcome everyone!

I apologize for not being able to welcome you from farther away!”

Housekeeper Qian led Ye Yuanshu and others into the auction venue and then left.

Shortly after, a formidable elder exuding a commanding presence stepped out from behind the auction stage, followed by a bewitching woman.

“Elder Long!

What brings you here!”

Seeing the elder that appeared, Ye Yuanshu was taken aback and quickly greeted him respectfully.

Good heavens, it’s the legendary Long Zhentian, the Great Elder in charge of external affairs from Dragon Cry City!

Some people recognized the old man before them and exclaimed in low voices, hastily bowing down.

“Please, Young Master Ye, no need to stand on ceremony!”

Long Zhentian, with a smile on his face, gestured for everyone to sit down before saying, “This Deep Sea Ancient Collection is unlike any other, so I personally made the trip to Night Crying Island!”

“Oh?

If Elder Long has come in person, this ancient collection must truly be out of the ordinary!”

Sitting in the front row of the auction hall, Ye Yuanshu’s eyes lit up with anticipation and delight.

“Ha ha, naturally!

You’ll understand in a moment, Young Master Ye!”

Long Zhentian nodded with a smile, “The rules for this auction are the same as in past years.

Most of the ancient treasures can be obtained with sufficient worldly money and jewels or equivalent treasures in exchange.

However, there are a few key treasures that will require precious treasures to trade for, or even better, the legendary Spirit Stones!”

“If even Elder Long specifically requests Spirit Stones for the exchange, the items must be extraordinary!

I am somewhat impatient to see what’s in store!”

Ye Yuanshu said with a face full of surprise and excitement.

“Let’s cut to the chase!”

Long Zhentian nodded, then turned to the enchanting woman beside him, “Little Li, begin!”

Upon hearing this, the seductive woman smiled and stepped onto the auction stage, addressing the crowd below, “Those who have been here before are probably familiar with me.

My name is Little Li, and I will host this year’s Night Crying Island auction again!

As before, the auction items are treasures from the deep sea, rare and valuable!

I think everyone is eager to see what ancient treasures we will auction, so let’s get started right away!”

“The first item, the Deep Sea Ancient Lamp!”

…

With Little Li’s introduction, a woman in a cheongsam stepped out from behind the auction stage curtain, carrying a red cloth-covered tray.

The auction hall immediately buzzed with activity.

However.

Sitting on the side with Yaya and Zhuzhu, Lin Tian remained impassive in his seat.

Xi Zirong was brought to the front row by Ye Yuanshu.

As for Lei Hongrui and others, they too sat more forward, keeping a respectful distance from Ye Yuanshu.

At this moment.

Lin Tian’s gaze was not on the auction stage, but instead fixed on Long Zhentian.

From this person, he sensed faint traces of Dragon Energy.

Although faint, it was undeniably real!

“From Dragon Cry City?

And I wonder where that is!

Could there really be Dragon Clan Descendants?

Did the Dragon Clan actually appear on Earth in ancient times?

It seems that when Evil like Xiaotian passed through Earth and left Divine Marrow to nurture Evil as Xiao Tian Wood, it was not by chance!”

“As for the Spirit Stones that Long Zhentian and Ye Yuanshu mentioned earlier…

from their brief mention, it’s clear that Spirit Stones are extremely precious in the Earth Cultivation World, and perhaps, they are controlled by sects above the third-level in the Cultivation Domain!”

Lin Tian watched Long Zhentian’s retreating figure, musing to himself internally.

As for the items appearing on the auction stage, Lin Tian had little interest.

Despite the ongoing bidding in the lively auction hall, the treasures being presented were merely various ancient artefacts imbued with faint Spiritual Energy, essentially useless and not even on par with the most rudimentary Magic Artifacts.

Tap tap~~

During the commotion of the lively bidding, the sound of light footsteps came from the side.

Most people didn’t pay attention, but Lei Hongrui and others turned their heads upon realizing who had approached their area.

The newcomer was an old man in traditional Chinese attire, his face bearing scars—it was Hou Qiwen!

“Elder Hou, what happened to you?”

Seeing Hou Qiwen in a hurry with injuries on his body, Lei Hongrui frowned and asked in a low voice.

“Sect Master, I…

I…”

Hou Qiwen moved closer, sitting down beside them, and, remembering Lin Tian, he found himself at a loss for words.

Then, he suddenly noticed Lin Tian sitting next to Yaya and Zhuzhu.

His complexion went pale, his mouth agape, exposing a look of terror.
