Chapter 24 Auction Event, Heading to the Holy City of the Gama Empire
After Xiao Chen finished cultivating at his residence, he opened his eyes.
Footsteps came from outside the door.
Xiao Zhan looked at him and said, "Chen'er, the sect leader of Yunlan Sect has arrived and wants to see you."
Xiao Chen's expression remained calm.
He got up and dusted himself off.
Xiao Zhan looked at him, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
He didn't know when Xiao Chen had any dealings with the Yunlan Sect Master.
How could the Yunyun Sect Master personally visit the Xiao family?
Chen'er is quite something.
"Xiao Chen".
"Thank you for saving me last time," Yun Yun said.
Xiao Chen looked at her, but didn't say anything.
"If you hadn't saved me from the Amethyst Winged Lion King, I'm afraid I would have been in grave danger," Yun Yun said.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan's expression changed.
Amethyst Winged Lion King?
That's a sixth-tier magical beast.
One of the overlords of the Monster Mountain Range in the Gama Empire.
Xiao Chen actually saved Yun Yun from the Amethyst Winged Lion King?
Xiao Zhan looked at Xiao Chen in disbelief.
Xiao Yan stood to the side, his face also filled with shock.
He knew Xiao Chen was very strong, but he didn't expect him to be this strong.
To save someone from a sixth-tier magical beast, what kind of strength would that require?
Xiao Yan muttered to himself.
"It's nothing," Xiao Chen said casually.
Yun Yun looked at his calm expression and nodded inwardly.
To remain so calm in the face of her gratitude is truly a rare quality.
If it were anyone else who had saved a Dou Huang-level expert like her, they would probably have become arrogant and complacent.
But Xiao Chen's face remained expressionless, as if he had done something insignificant.
"Xiao Chen, I would like to invite you to visit the Yunlan Sect," Yun Yun said. "What do you think?"
"Not interested," Xiao Chen said.
Yun Yun was stunned for a moment.
She didn't expect Xiao Chen to refuse so decisively.
Nalan Yanran stood to the side, her face also filled with disbelief.
The teacher personally extended an invitation; countless people throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire would love to visit the Yunlan Sect but never had the chance.
Xiao Chen actually refused?
"Xiao Chen, the Yunlan Sect has many profound cultivation techniques and combat skills," Yun Yun said. "If you go there, you can browse through them at will."
"No need," Xiao Chen said.
Yun Yun looked at him, feeling somewhat helpless.
Why is this person so stubborn?
"In that case, let's forget about it," Yun Yun said.
She paused for a moment, then continued, "Recently, an auction will be held in the capital of the Gama Empire."
Xiao Chen looked at her.
"The auction is hosted by the Mittel family and is held every three years," Yun Yun said. "Many good things will be available at the auction."
"High-level combat techniques, cultivation methods, medicinal herbs, pills, and even high-level magic cores," Yun Yun said.
"Are you interested?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen's heart stirred.
High-level combat techniques and medicinal herbs.
If Xiao Yan could obtain these, it might enhance his strength and bring him more opportunities.
He will also receive double the reward.
"When?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Three days later," Yun Yun said.
Xiao Chen nodded.
Seeing that Xiao Chen agreed, Yun Yun looked at him excitedly, "Then let's travel together."
"Whatever," Xiao Chen said.
Xiao Chen turned around and looked at Xiao Zhan. "Father, I'm going to the capital."
Xiao Zhan nodded. "Go."
"Xiao Yan, come here," Xiao Chen said.
Xiao Yan stepped forward. "Brother."
Xiao Chen patted him on the shoulder.
"Cultivate diligently," Xiao Chen said.
"Don't worry, Third Brother, I will definitely not fall behind in my cultivation," Xiao Yan said.
"I'll go check out the auction," Xiao Chen said. "If I find anything good, I'll buy it to help you improve."
Xiao Yan was moved upon hearing this.
"Brother, you don't need to worry about me..." Xiao Yan said.
"Enough with the nonsense," Xiao Chen said. "Just focus on your cultivation."
Xiao Yan nodded. "I understand."
"Wait for me to come back," Xiao Chen said.
"Third Brother, be careful on your journey," Xiao Yan said.
Xiao Chen nodded and turned to walk outside.
Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran followed behind him.
Xiao Zhan watched the three figures disappear into the distance, a sense of感慨 (gan3kai3, a feeling of mixed emotions, often including regret
Xiao Chen is becoming increasingly unfathomable to him.
Xiao Yan stood aside, watching the direction Xiao Chen had left in, and secretly made a vow in his heart.
His third brother is so good to him, so Xiao Yan must cultivate diligently and improve his strength.
He cannot let Xiao Chen down.
……
The three walked out of the Xiao family's gate.
Xiao Chen stopped and activated his internal fighting spirit.
Fighting spirit wings unfurled from his back.
Nalan Yanran was startled when she saw the fighting spirit wings on his back.
Battle aura transforms into wings.
That's something only a Dou Wang level expert can do.
She had heard from her teacher that Xiao Chen was a Dou Huang level expert, but seeing him in person still shocked her.
A teenager has already become a Dou Huang powerhouse.
How is that possible?
Nalan Yanran murmured to herself.
She thought of Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan and Xiao Chen are brothers, but the difference in their strength is too great.
Xiao Yan is now nothing more than a useless person who isn't even a Dou Zhe.
Xiao Chen was already a Dou Huang powerhouse.
They're both from the Xiao family, so why is there such a big difference between them?
Nalan Yanran thought to herself, unable to resist comparing Xiao Yan and Xiao Chen.
The more they compared, the more they realized how far inferior Xiao Yan was.
As she watched Xiao Chen's retreating figure, a sense of admiration and affection rose within her.
This man is indeed very outstanding...
Yun Yun also spread her fighting spirit wings.
She reached out and took Nalan Yanran's hand.
"Let's go, Yanran, follow Xiao Chen," Yun Yun said.
The three figures soared into the sky and flew towards the outside of Wutan City.
……
After leaving Utan City, the three flew all the way.
Xiao Chenfei was at the front, with Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran following behind.
The mountains and rivers below receded rapidly.
"Teacher, I never expected that Xiao Chen would actually be a Dou Huang powerhouse." Nalan Yanran couldn't help but say.
"What else?" Yun Yun said.
"But he... looks about my age, and he's from the Xiao family," Nalan Yanran said.
"That's why I said he must have a powerful force behind him nurturing him," Yun Yun said. "A teenager becoming a Dou Huang powerhouse isn't something he can achieve on his own."
Nalan Yanran nodded, her curiosity about Xiao Chen growing even stronger.
As we passed through the Monster Mountain Range, a deafening roar came from below.
Xiao Chen stopped and looked down.
A huge monster rushed out of the mountains and forests.
A sixth-tier magical beast, the Shadow Panther.
The monster was entirely black, enormous in size, and its eyes gleamed with an eerie light.
It raised its head and looked at the three people in the sky.
His gaze fell on Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran, a lewd glint flashing in his eyes.
The Shadow Panther is very interested in human women.
Especially a woman as beautiful as Yun Yun.
"Two human women, not bad." The Shadow Panther spoke in a human voice, his tone filled with greed.
Yun Yun's face darkened.
She never expected to encounter a sixth-tier magical beast here.
And it's the Shadow Panther.
This kind of monster is lewd by nature and has a particular fondness for capturing human women.
"Yanran, you go first," Yunyun said. "I'll hold it off."
"Teacher, it's a sixth-tier magical beast." Nalan Yanran's face turned pale.
Her fighting spirit surged wildly, preparing to make a move.
The Shadow Panther flashed and pounced towards Yun Yun.
It moved at an extremely high speed, leaving a trail of afterimages in the air.
Just as Yun Yun was about to make a move, a hand stopped her.
Xiao Chen stood in front of her, watching the Shadow Leopard pounce.
"You're courting death," Xiao Chen said calmly.
