“Endless Deep Sea? Millions of demon race?”

The entire crowd was in an uproar. The Gods Bestow Tribe was offering a tribute to Great Emperor Nangong, and the demon race actually sent a representative to do the same? Nothing like this ever happened in the previous Gods Bestow Festivals.

“Demon race?”

Jiang Yi revealed a ruminating expression and thought that the rumors were true. The Endless Deep Sea’s demon races and the Sin Island were allies and worked together to resist against the East Imperial Nine Thearchs Clans, which allowed Sin Island to survive until this moment. Of course, the Nine Dragons’ God-Extinguishing Array also played a crucial role.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

All the clan heads of the 13 Clans had soared into the sky while the Lei Clan Head, Lei Tingwei, cupped his hands and bowed slightly. “I am Lei Tingwei. Young Lady Qianqian and Lord Black Deity’s arrival brings light to our humble Gods Bestow City. We are extremely honored to have you here. Welcome!”

Buzz!

The black flood dragon’s body flashed with black light and turned into a huge dark-faced man. That Young Lady Qianqian gave a shallow smile and flew towards the tall platform along with the 13 Clan Heads.

“Lord Black Deity?”

Countless large clans’ Clan Heads and the members of the 13 Clans were all in silent shock. They didn’t know this black flood dragon, but they had heard of the name ‘Black Deity’ many times. It was rumored to be a very powerful Demon Sovereign of the Endless Deep Sea, and its strength was probably comparable to those old monsters of the Gods Bestow Tribe.

Black Deity was obviously a subordinate and bodyguard, meaning this Young Lady Qianqian’s status was obvious as she was definitely from an imperial race of the Endless Deep Sea.

“Hehe!”

Many young masters of the 13 Clans were smiling as they felt prestigious. If even the imperial race of the Endless Deep Sea was here to pay tribute to the Great Emperor Nangong, it meant that the imperial race of the Endless Deep Sea valued the alliance with the Gods Bestow Tribe deeply, meaning they were truly respected.

“Let the ceremony begin!”

Lei Tingwei yelled out again. Four elders flew out and struck out rainbow-colored essence force into the sky with both hands. Those four rays of rainbow-colored rays shot towards the sky and finally fused together.

A spot of light lit up in the night sky which gradually enlarged and extended in all directions, slowly forming a light screen. Immediately after, a giant barrier appeared and enveloped the entire Gods Bestow Island. Great Emperor Nangong’s statue lit up at the same time, emitting a gentle radiance and causing everyone to have this urge to bow and worship.

“Kneel…”

One of the elders yelled out solemnly. All the members of the 13 Clans had knelt on one knee and closed their eyes to observe a moment of silence. There were plenty of people in the plaza that had knelt down a well, but there were even more who simply bowed to express their respect as they weren’t members of the 13 Clans. It wasn’t necessary for them to kneel.

Lei Tingwei, Situ Ao, and the others had also knelt down. Young Lady Qianqian lowered her head in silence while Black Deity stood with pride and indifference like an iron tower.

The entire place was in absolute silence, and most of the people were lowering their heads in silence. Right now at this moment, no one dared to let out any sound. If anyone dared to do anything reckless, they would certainly have to die.

“Rise…”

Fifteen minutes later, the Great Emperor Nangong’s statue gradually dimmed and restored its original state. That elder then yelled out where the members of the 13 Clans responded by standing up.

That elder waved his hand. A group of strong men flew up from the crowd, and there were all wearing strange attires, revealing one side of their chest while their heads were donned with bird feathers, and they had this weird necklace. They started a weird dance surrounding the statue barefoot while chanting something in their mouths as though they were a group of religious hucksters.

Swish! Swish!

At this moment, there was a subtle air-piercing sound that came from the south. There was a youth with green hair like Young Lady Qianqian who rapidly approached like a violent dragon.

The Lei Clan’s no.1 young lady, Lei Zihan; Situ Clan’s beautiful young lady, Situ Yinian; Lu Yu; and many more young ladies’ eyes lit up. All the eyes of the Huangfu clansmen contracted as their expressions turned dark.

“Hmph, Huangfu Taotian, you still have the face to return?”

Huangfu Clan Head, Huangfu Qi, yelled out with an infuriated shout. His body was brimming with killing aura, and it seemed as though he might make a move at any moment and kill this green-haired youth in a single move.

“Huangfu Taotian actually came?”

Jiang Yi, who was in the distance, was a little surprised. Wasn’t this Huangfu Taotian plundering at Gods Bestow Sea? Could he already have gathered enough celestial stones? Since he wasn’t a part of the Huangfu Clan, what did he come back for?

Huangfu Taotian landed on the tall platform from the sky. He didn’t look at Huangfu Qi; neither did he speak. He simply knelt down while looking at Great Emperor Nangong’s statue with respect and gave three kowtows before he spoke indifferently with a side glance, “I am back to pay my respects to the Great Emperor. What does that have to do with you? I am no longer a part of the Huangfu Clan. Aren’t you meddling too much?”

“You…”

Huangfu Qi pointed a finger at Huangfu Taotian and was trembling from anger. The latter didn’t even look directly at him as he soared to the sky and shot towards the east. He then landed firmly at the entrance of Situ Clan’s merchant association and walked in, vanishing from everyone’s sights.

“Wow!”

The entire crowd was in a commotion, and the members from the Huangfu Clan had an extremely awful expression. Jiang Yi had raised his thumb and was praising Huangfu Taotian’s character and tyranny.

Situ Ao laughed, lifting the tensed-up atmosphere, and said, “Hahaha. Taotian, this child’s temperament is truly obstinate, huh? Brother Huangfu, don’t be angry. The child is just ignorant. The auction is about to begin, and there will be plenty of exceptional treasures in this auction. Young Lady Qianqian, I wonder if you have any interest to take a look. If you have any treasure on the auction that you fancied, just tell this old man.”

“Auction? Qianqian has already heard about it for a long time. Many thanks to Situ Clan Head.” Young Lady Qianqian let out a light smile and bowed slightly to express her thanks.

Huangfu Qi knew that Situ Ao was hinting him to not let the Demon Race Princess see a joke with so many people around. Huangfu Qi had no choice but to laugh bitterly and reply, “Brother Situ, you better don’t deceive me. If there aren’t any good treasures, I am going to snatch your Linglong Chess from your home.”

“No problem!”

Situ Ao nodded, replied with heroic spirit, and swept a look at the rest of the Clan Heads from the 13 Clans. He then said, “Everyone, let’s go. I guarantee that all of you will be satisfied!”

In the past, the auction was always the highlight of the show after the Gods Bestow Ceremony.

Every time, the 13 Clans would bring out great items to auction. Like this time, the Qu Clan had brought over 600 Heaven Paintings and plenty of treasures. They naturally wanted to see what price could they sell their treasures for, and if there would be something that they fancied, they would make a move to auction for those things.

The members of the 13 Clans, Young Lady Qianqian, Black Deity, and the others had all soared to the sky and headed straight for Situ Clan’s merchant association. They directly entered the auction hall through the white jade staircase in the middle.

Swish! Swish!

Many large clans’ Clan Head had also soared in the sky one after the other and flew straight for Situ Clan’s merchant association. Many others envied those that entered the auction hall. The entrance fee for this auction cost 5000 celestial stones, and most of them didn’t even have enough to enter.

“Let’s go!”

Jiang Yi waved his hand towards the others. Lu Lin might have entered the auction hall, but Big Sister Bell had also entered. If there was an opportunity, he naturally wanted to contact her.

There was something else. Huangfu Taotian was the first to enter, and Jiang Yi was curious why he had entered? Could he have been plundering without restrain on the Gods Bestow Sea and obtained a huge number of celestial stones so that he could auction for treasures in the auction hall?

After entering Situ Clan’s merchant association, Jiang Yi and his group headed straight for the second hall. Qian Wanguan had already handed over 100 million celestial stones. Hence, their seats were inside a small pavilion.

“Uh… this auction hall is massive. Could a hundred thousand people be competing in the same auction?”

After walking into the auction hall, Jiang Yi swept a glance and was filled with astonishment while silently being excited at the same time. If it was such a grand auction, there were definitely merchants from the East Imperial Continent that had sneaked in. Tonight, Yi Piaopiao’s name was probably going to be renowned throughout the entire Stellarsky Domain!
