553 Such Fate (1/2)

At Bei Xuan Faction.

The sound of cheering and commendation filled the place the moment Chen Xiaobei kept his Ma Liang Divine Pen.

”Congratulations Faction Leader Chen for setting up a new faction in Dragon City! Here, I hope that your faction will grow exponentially!”

”Congratulations Faction Leader Chen… Bravo!”

”Actions always speaks louder than words! I propose that everyone prepare a gift for Leader Chen later to congratulate him for setting up Bei Xuan Faction!”

”That's right! A gift is a must!”

At this moment, the crowd's attitude towards Chen Xiaobei had changed completely. There was no one in the crowd that had the guts to go against him. Waves and waves of praise reflected the respect and admiration that the crowd had towards Chen Xiaobei. Standing beside the huge stone, Chen Xiaobei was indulging the attention that he got from the crowd.

As the first and only disciple of Bei Xuan Faction, Feng Qingyang received quite a number of compliments as well. Certainly, he was really proud of himself. Truth be told, being able to turn the tide was all thanks to the absolute power that Chen Xiaobei possessed!

'Take a step back and think about this. Without the Lightning Pool Formation, the ending would have been completely different! Also, all glory goes to the Red Envelope Group because that was where Chen Xiaobei acquired this item!”

”I should communicate and socialize with the members of Red Envelope more frequently after making sure everything is in place! My combat power was still rather weak and I really need to acquire more Spiritual Qi to make myself become stronger! I shall become the ruler of my own fate! Letting my Sifu down is a big no-no!”

Chen Xiaobei might look relaxed from the surface but he did not let that pride get to his head. On the contrary, he constantly reminded himself that he should not stop pursuing more power! Of course, he would never stop to find ways to increase his wealth as well!

”Everyone, please adjourn to the grand hall. As I promised all of you earlier, the auction shall proceed as usual!”

With that being said, Chen Xiaobei led the crowd to the grand hall personally. The crowd was extremely thrilled after hearing Chen Xiaobei's announcement. Originally, they came here with the purpose of purchasing martial arts manuals. The unexpected incident that happened earlier had caused them to doubt that the martial art manuals auction was something that Chen Xiaobei made up to trick them.

Now that it was proven true, the crowd was more than happy to follow Chen Xiaobei to the grand hall. Needless to say, the auction went by smoothly. However, there were three people who left the place without anyone noticing them. One of them was Li Xiang. Considering that he was stuck in his true form of a blood descendant, he had to look for a hidden place to transform himself back to normal looking human being – it would avoid unnecessary troubles as well.

The rest of the two people that left the place were two ladies.

”My lady, why are we leaving so early? Qiao'er wants to watch little bro's auction!”

Qiao'er pouted – dissatisfied.

”I don't feel so good. So, I want to head back to get some rest.”

”Not feeling well? But, you are smiling!”

Qiao'er tilted her head – baffled.

”How did you know that I'm smiling? My mask is not even off...”

Surprised, the masked lady thought that her servant possessed a pair of eyes that could see through objects.

”I grew up together with you, my lady. By listening to your voice, I can tell your current mood! If I'm not mistaken, your face is flushed! Tell me quick! Something good must have happened! It has been a long time since the last time you smiled!”

”What… What kind of good things could have happened to me? You are not a psychic! So, stop making wild guesses!”

”It's totally okay if you don't want to admit it… I have just read your mind!”
