Chapter 779 - 779 The White Tiger Chamber Of Commerces Auction (2) (2/2)
Even the Murong family, the overlord of Murong city only had 2 Sovereign realm experts backing them and they could do whatever they wanted in the city.
It was almost certain that if those 4 Sovereign realm experts started fighting, the entire Murong city would be razed to the ground!
And yet, Shun Long wasn't too surprised when he heard this.
After all, even Sovereign realm experts would want to get their hands on any earth flames that appeared, and this was even more so for the rarer earth flames with special attributes.
Although most people didn't know about this matter, Shun Long was perfectly aware that each earth flame was unique and had its own properties. Some earth flames purely had the element of fire inside them, but there were earth flames with the element of wind, the element of lightning, and even the element of ice, along with many other elements.
There were even some earth flames who focused on the special attributes of a person's soul.
When an expert absorbed an earth flame, they would then have the chance to gain insights on the element inside the earth flame, increasing their strength even further!
This was why, more often than not, even experts who weren't alchemists or formation masters would do everything they could to get their hands on an earth flame!

At the same time that Shun Long sat down on the couch and started to drink some of his wine while completely ignoring what was going on in the rooms around him, in one of the private rooms that was just a few meters away from his own, a silver-haired middle-aged woman in white robes narrowed her eyes as she mumbled to herself in a curious voice
''Who is this person? Someone that even I can't see through their cultivation base...? Don't tell me that it's a middle-stage Sovereign? But the people from the 'Northern Sovereign's city', the 'Black mist valley', and 'Lord Zhu's garden' are already here and none of their middle-stage Sovereigns have come to Murong city! It's not the old ancestor of the Murong family either...
Perhaps this person belongs to another power that's not from the northern part of the central region...''
The 3 white-robed women who were standing next to the silver-haired middle-aged woman all had looks of shock on their faces when they heard this, before one of them asked
''Master, didn't the 'White tiger chamber of commerce' tell us that there were only 4 Sovereign realm experts who had come to Murong city, including master herself? How come there is another one now?''
After a moment of silence, the silver-haired middle-aged woman shook her head and answered in a calm manner
''Perhaps this person hid himself too well, or he has a special relationship with the 'White tiger chamber of commerce' which is why they kept this a secret. Regardless, it doesn't matter who he is. The only thing that matters is who will get their hands on the earth flame in the end.''
The 3 white-robed women nodded without saying anything else, as they all turned their attention to the main stage of the auction venue as they waited for the auction to start.
Finally, a little more than an hour later, the seats in the audience below, as well as the private rooms up above, were all filled to the brim with people, before a beautiful young woman in yellow robes finally appeared on the main stage of the auction venue, causing the entire crowd to immediately fall silent.
