Yu Xin, who had taken off her clothes, was like a goddess in the moon. The faint moonlight inlaid a layer of light on her, making her beauty even more mysterious and holy.
Fortunately, this beautiful scenery did not last long. Yu Xin bent down, her slender waist curved in an astonishing arc, and took out a black robe from her small cloth bag, putting it on from head to toe.
This robe was extremely large, wrapping Yu Xin's head and body inside. Then, she wore a mask. This way, outsiders could not even tell if she was a man or a woman.
Zhang Tian heaved a sigh of relief. He watched his daughter walk out of the woods and run toward Freedom City along another road. His curiosity was at its peak.
She had gone through so much trouble to leave the city just to hide her true identity. This meant that what she was going to do next must be very extraordinary and very secretive.
"Auction house?"
Zhang Tian followed Yu Xin all the way back to Freedom City. He didn't expect to stop in front of an auction house. Apparently, an auction was about to start. The entrance of the auction house was crowded with people. It was filled with noise and curses.
Freedom City had always been lawless, and auctions held in the middle of the night like this would usually produce a lot of illegal goods, such as secret cultivation techniques and martial arts techniques of some ancient sects or stolen goods obtained from killing people. Many things could not be bought on the market, so they were very popular among treasure hunters.
It was precisely because of this reason that many people who came to participate in the auction were unwilling to show their real faces. A black-robed person like Yu Xin was instead very common and belonged to the normal dressing.
It was obviously not the first time Yu Xin had come to such a place. Her movements were very agile as she lined up in the front row and silently entered the auction house.
"Could it be that this girl is here to auction something?”A few question marks flashed across Zhang Tian's mind as he walked towards the entrance at a moderate speed. All the people blocking the way naturally parted to form a passage, as if they didn't notice Zhang Tian's existence.
After entering the inner area, Zhang Tian's eyes widened. The seats and the auction platform made of five-colored crystals could accommodate tens of thousands of people. Zhang Tian was dazzled.
After finding Yu Xin's figure, Zhang Tian was not in a hurry. He casually found a seat in the back row and sat down. He listened to the people around him chatting in low voices. After a while, all the seats were filled. The central auction stage emitted a dazzling light.
The auction officially began!
The host of the auction was a beautiful woman from the snake clan with an enchanting figure. Her upper body was extremely plump, but her lower body was dragging a colorful snake tail. She skillfully displayed the auction items one after another, using her extremely charming voice to increase the transaction price of each auction item by several times.
"…The next item is one of the finale items of this auction.[Three Thousand Lightning Movement]! "The starting price is 10,000 King grade spirit stones!" The Lamia auctioneer's tone was filled with excitement, instantly igniting the atmosphere of the auction.
Countless red eyes stared at a pale silver scroll on the high platform. Their rapid breathing sounded like a bellow.
"Three Thousand Lightning Movement, isn't that the secret of the Ancient South Desolate Sect's Wind Lightning Pavilion? Who would dare to take such a hot potato?”
"There aren't many emperor level movement techniques in the entire continent. However, this agility technique was too conspicuous. It definitely did not come from a proper source. After cultivating it, one would not dare to reveal it. Once it was discovered by the Wind Lightning Pavilion, they would pursue it relentlessly!”
"Humph! This was the Eastern Barren Territory. No matter how strong the Wind Lightning Pavilion was, they would not be able to control this place. This " Three Thousand Lightning Movement " was a famous movement technique in the Southern Wasteland. Its movements were as fast as lightning. Once it was mastered, it could fight opponents of a higher level. It could even escape from opponents of a higher level. Who wouldn't be tempted by such a powerful movement technique?”
"This identity is mine. I'll pay 13,000 King grade spirit stones!”A fierce-looking man opened his mouth and bid. He was a famous rogue cultivator in Freedom City, known as the Bloody Butcher. He was a Legend rank King, so he was naturally not afraid of the Wind Lightning Pavilion finding trouble.
"20,000 King grade spirit stones! This was an emperor level movement technique. Although it was not from a proper source, it was still worth the price.”A sickly young man coldly bid. His body was gloomy and his face was sallow. It was obvious that he had disguised himself.
……
Zhang Tian naturally had no interest in these messy things. His attention was completely focused on Yu Xin, so he had long noticed that Yu Xin didn't seem to care about this auction. From the moment she entered the door, her eyes had been staring at the gloomy youth in front of her.
"What's going on?"
Even now, Zhang Tian still couldn't make sense of what was going on. Through his Divine Sense, he easily learned from the conversation between the young man and his followers that this young man was called Ren Shaoming. He was the Young Sect Master of the Blood Demon Sect, a famous ancient evil cultivation sect. His purpose in coming to the auction house was to follow the orders of the Sect Master's father and buy the " Three Thousand Lightning Movement ". Other than that, there didn't seem to be anything else special.
"37,000 King Grade Spirit Stones!"
Even as Zhang Tian watched, the Blood Demon Sect's Junior Sect Lord once again called out a bid, his voice so cold that it seemed to seep into his bones.
37,000 King grade spirit stones was a sky-high price. Even many Legend Realm Kings didn't have such wealth. Although the value of an Emperor Level Movement Technique wasn't limited to this, considering that the Lightning Haste was a secret cultivation method of the Wind Lightning Pavilion and was considered stolen goods, it wasn't worth it.
Therefore, after this price was announced, no one else raised the bid, and he successfully won the bid for this movement technique manual.
Ren Shaoming was very happy to have successfully bought the secret manual of the " Three Thousand Lightning Movement ". He said in a light tone,""That's right. Father gave me a budget of 40,000 King grade spirit stones this time. Now, I have 3,000 King grade spirit stones left. Let's see if I can find other treasures.”
An old man at the side said softly," Young Sect Master, we'd better hurry up and leave with the movement technique manual. There's an assassin behind us. He's been watching you since the moment he entered."”
Ren Shaoming's mouth cracked into a cruel arc, and he said darkly,""Do you think I didn't notice? Humph! A mere Transcendent Realm assassin, he could just casually deal with him after he left!”
"Assassins?"
A flash of inspiration came to Zhang Tian's mind. He finally sorted out all his thoughts. Yu Xin's performance from the beginning to the end was no different from a new assassin.
The reason why he didn't guess it was because he had never thought about it in this way. The obedient and docile baby daughter in his eyes was actually an assassin!
