"Cackle!"
The yellow-clad woman covered her face and laughed, "Young Master Shi, you really have a sense of humor, how can items from an auction be sold openly!"
"What? You disagree?"
Shi Lin’s expression changed abruptly, and a bone-chilling coldness instantly radiated from his body, causing the yellow-clad woman to involuntarily step back.
The woman in yellow had not expected Shi Lin to be so domineering; though dissatisfied, she still forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart, maintaining a smile.
"Young Master Shi, you know the rules of the auction house as well as I do. On the other hand, if soone were to go to the Shi Family’s auction house to buy an item ant for auction, what would you do?"
"Hmph!"
Shi Lin snorted coldly.
"Who dares!"
"So you an to say that our Zhao Family is easy to bully?"
"Hehe!"
Shi Lin slightly lowered his head and chuckled.
"I don’t care how mighty your Zhao Family appears before others, but in front of my Shi Family, your Zhao Family is only fit to be a younger brother!"
Shi Lin slightly raised his head, revealing a sinister smile as he looked toward the woman in yellow.
"I’ll ask you one last ti, will you sell the True God Pill to or not!"
Even a clay figurine has so anger, and Shi Lin repeatedly using his family’s position to oppress the woman in yellow had made her very unhappy.
In front of the Zhao Family’s Comrce, the crowd, seeing the woman in yellow not speaking for a while, began to discuss animatedly.
"Damn, this Young Master Shi is way too arrogant and bullying, isn’t he?"
"Exactly, just because their Shi Family is slightly stronger than the Zhao Family by a margin, he’s showing off here."
"Hehe!"
At that mont, a cold laugh ca from within the crowd.
"Speaking of strength, the Zhao Family is not much weaker than the Shi Family in Xuanwu City. If we consider the fact that the Zhao Family has a True God Pill for auction, I think the Zhao Family must have already leapt to beco the number one family in Xuanwu City."
"What, how could the Zhao Family possibly beco the number one family in Xuanwu City?"
"Yes!"
A person in the crowd asked in confusion, "Would Daoist friend kindly explain this statent?"
"Hehe!"
The man laughed and said, "In Xuanwu City, the strength of a family is entirely judged by the number of True God Realm powerhouses within it. Just think about it, the Zhao Family is actually able to produce the legendary True God Pill for auction, which can only an one thing: the mbers of their Zhao Family no longer need to consu True God Pills to elevate their realms."
"Goodness gracious!"
Soone gasped in amazent, "So you’re saying, everyone in the Zhao Family has already reached the True God Realm."
"Hehe!"
The man chuckled: "That, I do not know. It’s rely speculation, but it seems Young Master Shi is about to stir up so serious trouble."
As the conversation went on, everyone’s gaze shifted back to Shi Lin.
After a standoff with the yellow-clad woman for several minutes, seeing that Shi Lin got serious, she couldn’t contain her anger any longer. After a mont’s consideration, she glared and said sternly, "Young Master Shi, if you’ve co to honor our Zhao Family’s auction, I, Zhao Xiaoqian, am very welcoming. But if you’re here to cause trouble, then don’t bla for being inhospitable!"
"Haha..."
Upon hearing Zhao Xiaoqian’s words, Shi Lin burst into a fit of wild laughter.
"Oh, oh, oh, Zhao Xiaoqian, are you threatening ?"
Zhao Xiaoqian replied calmly and sharply,
"I am but a re servant of the Zhao Family, how dare I threaten the esteed third young master of the Shi Family."
"Hmph!"
Shi Lin snorted and said angrily, "As long as you know your place, better take out and sell the True God Pill to now, before I lose my patience and bring unnecessary trouble to your Zhao Family."
"Over my dead body!"
Shi Lin did not expect Zhao Xiaoqian to reject him so bluntly, and he beca so angry that it was embarrassing. He roared at Zhao Xiaoqian,
"Since you’re unwilling to sell it to , then don’t bla for using force."
"Whoosh!"
Shi Lin’s figure trembled, and a powerful, invisible Divine Essence Power suddenly emanated from him. Just as this force was about to touch Zhao Xiaoqian, a thunderous voice erupted from the sky.
"Shi Lin, you’ve got quite the nerve, kid. If you don’t back off now, I’ll make sure to break your legs."
Upon hearing this, Shi Lin’s heart skipped a beat, and without a second thought, he hastily withdrew his power.
As Shi Lin looked towards the source of the voice, anger surged in his heart, and he let out a low growl.
"Qin Ming, it’s you again, kid."
"That’s right, it’s !"
No sooner had the voice fallen than a young man in white, with a striking appearance, descended from the sky, gently landing in front of Shi Lin.
"What?"
"Eldest Young Master of Qin Family from the first family of Xuanwu City, Qin Ming, why would he co to the Zhao Family’s auction house?"
The crowd was astonished upon hearing this.
anwhile, as everyone marveled, soone spoke gleefully, "Young Master Qin has also arrived; now this will be a good show to watch!"
Owing to Qin Ming’s sudden arrival, the noisy entrance of the Zhao Family’s auction house fell silent in an instant. Everyone was waiting to see what Qin Ming would do next.
"Shi Lin, are you trying to force a sale here in Xuanwu City?"
Qin Ming’s voice wasn’t loud, but to Shi Lin, it seed to pierce deep into his bones.
Shi Lin only managed to squeeze out a difficult smile.
"Young Master Qin, you’re overthinking it. How could I dare to act presumptuously in front of you!"
"Hmph!"
Qin Ming crossed his arms behind his back and let out a cold snort.
"Good that you haven’t!"
Afterward, Qin Ming didn’t bother with Shi Lin anymore and walked over to Zhao Xiaoqian, smiling politely.
"Miss Zhao, can the auction comnce now?"
Zhao Xiaoqian, who hadn’t expected Qin Ming to co, patted her chest with relief, paused for a mont, and then bitingly said, "Thank you, Young Master Qin, for stepping in. The auction can now begin."
Qin Ming offered a faint smile.
"Since it can begin, please announce the starting bid, Miss Zhao."
"The bid, what bid?" Zhao Xiaoqian was montarily stunned.
Qin Ming smiled.
"Miss Zhao, of course, I’m asking you to announce the starting bid for the True God Pill."
"Ah, all right."
Then, Zhao Xiaoqian frowned slightly and wondered, "Didn’t Young Master Qin’s cultivation reach the True God Realm long ago? What purpose does he have personally coming here to bid for the True God Pill?"
"Miss Zhao, can we start now?"
Qin Ming’s voice sounded again in Zhao Xiaoqian’s ears.
Zhao Xiaoqian smiled politely and respectfully said, "Young Master Qin, it would seem too disrespectful to you and everyone else to hold the auction outside. Please co with everyone to the auction house hall."
Qin Ming raised his hand, waved it, and said with a smile, "No need, it’s quite nice here. Please go ahead and proceed, Miss Zhao."
Although Zhao Xiaoqian was reluctant, it was not in her place to refuse. She managed a strained smile and said, "Since Young Master Qin doesn’t mind, then our auction shall now officially begin..."
This was the first ti Zhao Family’s Comrce was holding an auction right at the entrance of their hall, yet no one objected, as they were all focused on the True God Pill that was about to be auctioned.
Zhao Xiaoqian quickly arranged the space for the auction, and then, as per Qin Ming’s request, brought out the True God Pill for display.
The appearance of the True God Pill amazed everyone present.
"Wow!"
"Is that the pill emitting such dazzling light the True God Pill?"
"Tsk tsk!"
"It’s amazing to think that just by swallowing that pill, one’s cultivation could instantly ascend to the True God Realm."
"Alas..."
A sigh erged from the crowd.
"No matter how good the True God Pill is, with Young Master Qin and Young Master Shi present, we stand no chance of obtaining it..."
