Chapter 1181: Chapter 118 Unreasonable

The guide walking ahead felt incredibly relieved.

Thankfully, he didn’t confront them aggressively; otherwise, he would have been doomed for sure.

Ling Xiao, Moon Lady, and Leng Mei followed behind this person, heading towards the Black Wind Building.

They imagined the auction in Crime City would certainly be interesting. It was unknown how many odd and fantastic items they would encounter.

Once they left Black Street, the place immediately buzzed with discussions.

"Who exactly is that young man who dared to mock Mo Shao You and still wasn’t killed? He must be the first."

"Right, the terrifying killing intent he released just now made one’s whole body tremble. Too horrifying, he’s not at all less formidable than Mo Shao You."

"He might not be as strong as Mo Shao You, but his strength is also impressive. Since they’re also interested in the Ghost Shadow Sword and the Ghost Killing Mother and Child Swords, this auction at Black Wind Building is going to be lively. Who’s coming with me to join in the excitement?"

"Hahaha, of course, I’m going."

People, in groups of threes or twos, chatted and laughed as they continued walking down Black Street.

Actually, the Black Wind Building is located at the end of Black Street. It is a towering black structure and is regarded as the tallest landmark in Crime City, looking quite magnificent.

In the Black Wind Building, not only the Ghost Shadow Sword and the Ghost Killing Mother and Child Swords will be auctioned, but other treasures might also make an appearance.

"The Imperial Jade Seal from the Sacred Dynasty might show up today; I heard it from an insider."

"That’s quite possible. After all, many supreme treasures have appeared in Crime City, which is definitely a treasure land on Heavenly Dragon Continent and Divine Phoenix Continent."

"Of course. When martial artists get their hands on treasures, they like to auction them in Crime City because there are no taxes here, and the auction prices are often higher than in other places."

There are many people coming there, and naturally, the treasures are numerous and varied.

"When does the auction start?"

Ling Xiao asked the guide.

"Young Master need not rush. There is still a shichen before the auction starts. Why not stroll around Black Street? Don’t think that the things on the street vendors and shops here are worse than those in Black Wind Building."

At this moment, the guide was very responsive to Ling Xiao’s questions, not daring to prevaricate or spout nonsense.

"Oh? I thought martial artists would take all their good items to the Black Wind Building for auction. Turns out that’s not the case."

Ling Xiao asked curiously.

"Young Master may not know, but although the auction prices at Black Wind Building are indeed high, the commission is also steep, at least 20%."

The guide explained, "And for some items which martial artists acquired and don’t know whether they are treasures or not, they have to pay a significant authentication fee to have them appraised by Black Wind Building. If the item turns out to be valuable, that’s fine, but if it’s worthless, then they’ve made a big loss.

So when they get such items, martial artists usually just set a price and sell them at a stall. Of course, most of these sellers are quite powerful, so nobody dares to rob them by force.

Besides, there are others who have the protection of the Black Python Clan, owning their own shops on Black Street where one can buy everyday items and ordinary objects."

Black Wind Building is very strict about the selection of items for auction. They do not auction more than twenty items per day, and each one is definitely a rare item that martial artists are willing to pay a high price for."

"I see."

Now Ling Xiao had a better understanding of Crime City.

He might really be able to find the Imperial Jade Seal in Crime City, though he suspected that he might have to wait longer for it.

After listening to the guide’s words, Ling Xiao released his soul power, searching for good items among the stalls on both sides of Black Street.

Although the majority of items on these stalls are trash, not worth much money, as the guide said:

What if he stumbled upon a jackpot unintentionally?

With his powerful soul power, Ling Xiao was certainly unmatched in finding bargains.

"Hmm?"

After walking about several hundred meters, with the Black Wind Building already close at hand, Ling Xiao suddenly stopped, his gaze landing on one of the stalls.

"How much for this item?"

Ling Xiao crouched down and asked.

"10,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones, take it or leave it."

The stall owner glanced at Ling Xiao and said indifferently.

"Deal," Ling Xiao said.

Ling Xiao did not bother to haggle over the price.

What he was interested in was an exceptionally fine piece of ancient jade, containing very pure energy. Though not a rare treasure of the world, it was quite suitable for cultivation.

It was valued at around two million Low-grade Spirit Stones.

It’s just a pity that the stall owner didn’t recognize its worth, otherwise he would have realized what it was.

Ling Xiao, however, clearly sensed the energy contained within the piece of ancient jade.

"Young man, that’s quite decisive of you."

The stall owner was not weak, probably a strong practitioner in the Half-step Cave Heaven Realm. He wouldn’t dare to set up a stall here without that level of strength.

"Hold on, I offer 100,000 Low-grade Spirit Stones for that item!"

Just as Ling Xiao was about to take the ancient jade from the stall owner, someone stopped him.

"Look, it’s Mang Xiao from the Black Python Clan!"

"Indeed, it’s Mang Xiao, the number one genius of the Black Python Clan, his status is on par with the Six Young Masters of Sword from Blue Wave Island and the Ten Great Phoenix Children from the Phoenix God Empire."

Exclamations rose one after another.

Everyone turned to look behind Ling Xiao, where a tall and imposing burly man was standing.

Though he looked strong and robust, his age was not that great, being only nineteen years old. However, his cultivation level was even higher than Mo Shao You, having reached the Half-step Cave Heaven Realm mature phase.

Ling Xiao turned his head to look at Mang Xiao, his brows involuntarily knitting together.

This Black Python Clan really lives up to its reputation as an underworld family, never doing things by the book.

Looking at this man, he truly resemblances not a person, but a super Giant Python, with its Blood Bowl wide open, staring at him with sharp and fierce eyes.

"It looks like the Black Python Clan isn’t all just boasting; this Mang Xiao, purely in terms of talent, can indeed be considered a super genius."

Ling Xiao thought to himself.

"Sorry, I saw this piece of ancient jade first, and we’ve already settled on a price," Ling Xiao said to the individual nearly three heads taller than himself, speaking indifferently.

"Has that guy gone crazy?"

"Yeah, he dares to stand up to Mang Xiao and talk back like that. Is he asking for death?"

"He must really be insane; he wouldn’t give Mo Shao You way before, and now he’s competing with Mang Xiao for something, this is simply courting death."

Cries of shock or schadenfreude came from the crowd, all thinking that Ling Xiao was just looking for trouble for no reason.

"You saw it first? Hahaha, in Crime City, whatever Mang Xiao wants to get, he gets!"

Mang Xiao laughed heartily: "Boy, if you know what’s good for you, just scram, and save me the trouble of making a move!"

Although he didn’t make a move, he suddenly opened his mouth and exhaled a puff of mist.

This mist carried a chilling purple hue, making it feel very uncomfortable to observe.

The body of Ling Xiao was quickly enveloped in the purple haze.

"That’s the ’Purple Smoke Poison Fog’ from the Black Python Clan; that kid’s dead meat now."

Few sneering and gloating voices came from the crowd.

However, the next moment, they all stood shocked.
