“Old Huang, if you don’t believe it, how can we expect the patriarchs of those other clans to believe it?”
“These words are just a key. As for what really makes the foreign races more chaotic, it’s their ambition.”
Guo Jia stood up and put away the Spirit Wine brewed from the Black-White Heart Lotus on the table.
“W-Wait, I haven’t drunk it yet!”
Observing Guo Jia’s actions, Huang Yaoshi swiftly rose from his seat, seized a bottle of Spirit Wine, and cradled it protectively in his arms.
“Are you suggesting that these foreign races will descend into chaos on their own?”
When Huang Yaoshi arrived at Qingya Residence, Guo Jia was about to put away his glass before he could finish it.
“Of course. The battle for destiny has been evident for a long time. It’s just that these foreign races have been under the dominance of the four foreign races for ages. They harbor evil intentions but lack the courage to act.”
Guo Jia smiled.
He was merely paving the path and liberating the restraints within the hearts of the foreign races.
Certainly, he also owed gratitude to the Celestial Feather race for their actions. Without them, the surrounding foreign races wouldn’t have loosened this shackle so readily.
“Good plan. This is equivalent to roasting the four foreign races over a fire. As for how well they can be roasted, it will depend on the technique and the heat!” Huang Yaoshi’s eyes lit up. He finally understood what Guo Jia was thinking.
“Hahaha, don’t think too much. I just set it up casually. Besides, who said that the Venerable Emperor won’t descend?”
Guo Jia patted Huang Yaoshi on the shoulder and said with a smile.
“By the way, have you been in contact with the sect masters recently? Like Hong Qigong and the others?”
Guo Jia looked at Huang Yaoshi inquisitively.
“Lord Guo, stop joking with me. Ever since I became the head of the Green Cloud Pavilion, I haven’t even had time to drink!”
Hearing Guo Jia’s words, Huang Yaoshi couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Of course, the most important thing was his wife, Feng Heng, who took care of him every day and made him focus on work.
“I heard that your daughter went to the Martial Arts Tower to establish the Peach Blossom Island martial arts sect?”
Guo Jia looked at Huang Yaoshi with a faint smile.
“Huh?”
Huang Yaoshi was shocked. He had no idea what was going on.
“Don’t worry, your wife is watching.”
“However, there are going to be some changes in the Martial Arts Tower. It’s best to advise your daughter not to wander around.”
Guo Jia looked at Huang Yaoshi and reminded him.
“Don’t worry, Lord Guo. When we get back, I’ll lock my daughter up. Haha!”
Huang Yaoshi realized that Guo Jia was going to attack the Martial Arts Tower.
Given the significant authority held by the various martial sects under the Martial Arts Tower, there were concerns about certain individuals within these sects revealing their ambitions.
As far as Huang Yaoshi knew, some martial arts sects recruited disciples in the academies in some cities.
One had to know what the academy of the Green Lotus Dynasty was. It was a place provided by the future officials.
Certain individuals from the martial arts sects were aiming to undermine the foundation of the dynasty, which was a form of self-destruction. He wouldn’t have been aware of this issue if he hadn’t noticed that certain students from the academy had already been targeted by Green-robed soldiers.
“Let’s go. Follow me to the Green-Robed Tower.” Guo Jia smiled and led Huang Yaoshi there.
On the other side…
In Sea God City, three days passed in the blink of an eye.
A large number of foreign races headed towards the auction held by the Illusory Sea Shop.
Mei Wuyan, including Ye Yan and the other three, followed the many foreign races to the auction venue.
“It seems that these four fellows have already noticed that they are being stared at by the Demon Phoenix race.”
Mei Wuyan followed behind Ye Yan and the others. Seeing their swagger, he couldn’t help but smile.
Fighting was strictly prohibited in Sea God City; anyone caught fighting would be expelled by the Sea God Guards. He had carefully observed these guards. Each of them had attained the Transcendent realm, with some even reaching the Dharma realm.
It had to be said that the strength of these Sea God Guards could not be underestimated.
As for the invitation to the Illusory Sea Auction, Mei Wuyan had received it through the fund verification.
“Old Zhou, are those Demon Phoenix race members still following us?”
Wan Liutang said with a smile without looking back.
“Let them be. They won’t dare to attack, anyway.”
Zhou Zhennan said indifferently.
“But have you guys realized that this seems to be the first time the Demon Phoenix race has come to Sea God City?”
A golden light flashed in Xuan Ci’s eyes as he spoke to the three of them.
“Indeed. Look at their curiosity. It’s clear they are just like us, visiting Sea God
City for the first time.”
Ye Yan nodded in agreement.
“Moreover, have you noticed the presence of many members of the Dark Northern race in Sea God City? I didn’t expect them to conceal themselves so well. ”
Ye Yan’s gaze swept across several Dark Northern race members.
“Perhaps it’s a hidden trump card of the Dark Northern race? Have you also noticed that some foreign races in the Illusory Sea show a slight respect towards the Dark Northern race?”
Wan Liutang’s eyes flickered. He had observed that certain foreign races in the Illusory Sea displayed an excessive level of respect towards the Dark Northern race, almost as if there were notions of superiority and inferiority at play. “Do you think the Dark Northern race is a foreign race in the Illusory Sea?”
Zhou Zhennan nodded and agreed with Wan Liutang. He made a bold guess.
“That can’t be. How long has the Dark Northern race been in No Man’s Land? If they are related to the Illusory Sea, why hasn’t anyone noticed it?” With a look of disbelief on his face, Ye Yan shook his head.
“Let’s go in. We can see what kind of treasures the Illusory Sea Auction will offer.
Wan Liutang glanced around at the foreign races nearby and decided to refrain from further discussing the relationship between the Dark Northern race and the foreign races in the Illusory Sea.
When they walked into the Illusory Sea Auction, they realized that it was a large venue.
There were rows of seats surrounding a stage, with several treasure chests placed around. However, Ye Yan and the other three individuals only received invitations to the event after their funds were verified by the organizers.
As for Mei Wuyan, he came to a translucent private room.
“Sir, you can access the auction screen here to enter your bids. Additionally, you can order dishes, wine, and more. If you need anything, feel free to call me anytime.”
A foreign race maid brought Mei Wuyan into the private room with a respectful expression.
“Got it.”
Mei Wuyan nodded. Then, he looked at the environment of the private room and revealed a satisfied smile.
At the very least, he did not have to squeeze in with the foreign races.
“I’ll take my leave first, Sir.”
After saying that, the maid left the private room.
Mei Wuyan sat on the only seat in the private room. He could see the stage below and a portion of the hall.
A moment later, a figure appeared on the stage.
“Welcome to the Illusory Sea Auction. I’m the host of this auction, Huan Ling’er!”
A charming figure stood on the stage.
“Huh?”
Upon hearing the voice, Mei Wuyan’s gaze landed on the stage. That figure resembled a member of the Golden Sand race. Her body seemed to be innately filled with charm, causing Mei Wuyan to be somewhat stunned.
But soon, Mei Wuyan realized that something was amiss.
The figure on the stage was not her main body. But in Mei Wuyan’s eyes, she looked like the Golden Sand race.
“Interesting. Is it an innate illusion skill?”
Mei Wuyan smiled. One had to know that the Golden Sand race had never appeared in Sea God City. Moreover, he was a veteran member of the Golden Sand race.
A golden light appeared in Mei Wuyan’s eyes and he instantly saw through the appearance of the woman below.
Huan Ling’er’s true appearance was that of a light blue sea creature resembling a human. Mei Wuyan had never encountered this exact race before, but it appeared to be a foreign species native to the Illusory Sea.
“I’ll get straight to it! First of all, welcome to today’s first auction.”
Huan Ling’er said playfully. Then, she turned her body slightly. A maid behind the stage walked up with an item covered in a black cloth.
“I know why you’re here. Although the first treasure isn’t a Grade 3 one, it won’t disappoint you.”
Huan Ling’er’s voice was gentle, but it was also filled with charm. Then, she reached out and lifted the black cloth, and an item appeared on the stage..
