Xia Hun Wu smiled and nodded, then smacked his lips. Although it was a pity that this jade-green branch could not be obtained, in this Cloud Sea City, as long as it was not an attack by a Soul Essence Realm expert, then it would not be a problem. In the next two months, he would stay in the Zhou Mansion to cultivate, and as for his enmity with Xia Ze, when he had strength, he would come and settle it with him.

Xia Hwu stopped thinking and turned his gaze to Xia Ze, who was standing on the other side with an ashen face.

Originally, he only wanted to raise the price a bit before selling this loss to the Zhou Family. After all, today, Zhou Huai brought Xia Hun Wu here for the sake of that Earth Grade Elixir, but the result caused him to be stupefied; he never expected that Zhou Huai would actually give up without any hesitation at all, letting it go just like that, so he was not prepared at all.

After a long while, the corners of Xia Ze's eyes twitched. He finally said with a somewhat angry voice, ”Bastard, you two are actually acting for me!”

”Hehe, aren't you the same? You wanted to raise the price, but ended up throwing stones at your own feet! ” Zhou Huai lightly laughed, and his tone was filled with a sense of ridicule.

”Good, very good! Zhou Huai, I will slowly settle this debt for you in the future! ” After taking in a few deep breaths, Xia Ze's eyes became cold.

With regards to this kind of threat, Zhou Huai directly chose to ignore it, and even the Summer River would suffer in his hands, let alone this kind of wet behind the ears brat. He immediately turned towards Xiao Ya who was on the stage and smiled, ”Little girl, since the main event has already ended, I, this old man, will leave first! ”Remember to give my greetings to Principal Xiao!”

Xiao Ya smiled and nodded. She maintained her professional smile, but in her heart, she was overjoyed. The auction price this time was far beyond her expectations.

Xiao Yan sent a comforting smile to the ashen-faced Xia Ze. Under Xiao Ya's gaze, the figures of Xia Hun Wu and the rest slowly left the auction ground.

As Xia Hun Wu and the others left, the previously ashen face of Xia Ze returned to its original state in an instant as contempt gushed out from his eyes: ”Hehe, this time, let's see if you will take advantage or me take advantage. Six hundred and fifty thousand for Xia Hun Wu's life, I think this sale is worth it.”

…

After exiting the auction house, Zhou Huai and Zhou Yao were entangled by a group of people. They said that there were some important matters that needed to be told to them privately.

Slowly, Xia Hun Wu walked past a few alleyways, and unknowingly, the noise from the crowd also died down.

When Xia Hun Wu's figure turned again and was about to return to Zhou Huai's side, the moving footsteps suddenly stopped. The lazy expression on Xia Hun Wu's face had also disappeared.

Because in his eyes, there was no one at the entrance of this alley.

This Silver Armored Auction House was the only auction house in the entire Cloud Sea City. Although he didn't go in and out often, he had heard that this was the place with the most traffic in the city. How could there be no one at the mouth of this alley? Furthermore, he clearly remembered that there were quite a few people when he first arrived …

”Swoosh!”

Just as Xia Hun Wu's expression changed, a sharp sound of wind breaking suddenly sounded out from ahead. A sharp dagger shot out from the top of the house in front of them like a bolt of lightning.

The sudden attack caused Xia Hun Wu's expression to change. He hastily turned his head, but the sharp dagger was already right in front of him and there was no way to dodge it.

Xia Hun Wu did not panic in the face of danger. With a flick of his mind, a surge of soul power burst out from his body!

”Roar!”
