Chapter 813: Zhu Family Ancestor (2/2)

There were six days left until the auction began.

Huang Xiaolong and Shi Xiaofei tried getting in touch with the Ascending Moon Old Man and Yang Yi, but there was no response from either of them. Then again, he wasn’t that concerned about the two elders. Since they came for the godhead, he would naturally see them at the auction; as for the Zhu Family Ancestor, Huang Xiaolong decided to hold off until the end of the auction before ‘taking care’ of him.

Amidst all this, Huang Xiaolong found it odd. Knowing the power he possessed, the Zhu Family still made a move on his Senior Apprentice-brother?

Was it all just for the blood contract?

Weren’t they afraid of provoking his wrath? It was no secret that, on the surface, Huang Xiaolong had fourteen Highgod Realm masters who signed a blood contract with him!

Fourteen Highgod Realm masters could easily annihilate the entire Zhu Family.

Huang Xiaolong stood in the yard pondering over this matter, cold light gleaming in the depths of his eyes.

“You’re thinking about the Zhu Family?” Shi Xiaofei arrived behind Huang Xiaolong, softly asking.

Huang Xiaolong nodded, “The Zhu Family Ancestor’s motive may not be so simple.”

Shi Xiaofei continued in a somber tone, “He’s doing this to anger you, luring you to act?”

Huang Xiaolong fell into deep thought.

“But, luring you would bring no benefit to their Zhu Family.” Shi Xiaofei muttered, unable to understand the motivation behind the Zhu Family Ancestor’s action.

“What if someone wanted him to do this, or ordered him to do this? Could he disobey?” Huang Xiaolong who was in deep thought suddenly spoke.

Shi Xiaofei was taken aback, “Order? In the four galaxies, who could order the Zhu Family’s Ancestor?” Shi Xiaofei realized something just then, “You mean that mysterious Great Lord?”

She already knew about the mysterious Great Lord from Huang Xiaolong.

Huang Xiaolong nodded.

Only this could explain the Zhu Family Ancestor’s actions.

Six days passed quickly.

In these six days, the four of them didn't go anywhere, staying inside their respective yards to cultivate, or sometimes get together to have a drink.

On the day of the auction, Huang Xiaolong, Shi Xiaofei, Liu Yun, and Qi Wen stepped out from the inn, walking toward the auction house.

By the time the four of them arrived at the auction house, the entrance was already crowded with cultivators from all directions, the surroundings were filled with people. One could hardly move an inch forward.

However, the auction house stated that only Highgod Realm masters were eligible to rent a private room. On top of that, there was an entry fee of one million Baihu coins.

After paying four million Baihu coins, the four of them entered the auction house.

“In the future, I’ll also hold auctions in Martial Spirit World, charging one million Xuanwu coins as entrance fees.” Huang Xiaolong joked.

Shi Xiaofei and Qi Wen also laughed.

All of a sudden, Liu Yun’s eyes turned red, glaring angrily in a certain direction.

As Huang Xiaolong followed Liu Yun’s gaze, he spotted a group of people not far in front. They were Zhu Chu and the Zhu Family masters.

Huang Xiaolong’s eyes narrowed, his gaze landing on the crimson-haired old man beside Zhu Chu. ‘This is the Zhu Family Ancestor, Zhu Heng?’

At this point, the Zhu Family Ancestor Zhu Heng happened to look in Huang Xiaolong’s direction. Two people’s gazes collided in midair.

“Ancestor, that’s Huang Xiaolong.” Zhu Chu informed Zhu Heng, indicating toward Huang Xiaolong with his gaze.

Zhu Heng was surprised, he didn’t expect to run into Huang Xiaolong here. After a brief pause, Zhu Heng walked over to Huang Xiaolong’s group of four.
