"It seems you really don’t know what’s good for you, huh? Do you want to fly again?"
Ye Mo looked at Xiong Qing and sneered.
What Ye Mo referred to as "fly" was being knocked away by him.
"Ye Mo, don’t be too arrogant."
Xiong Qing’s expression changed slightly, saying, "If it weren’t for the Zhu family protecting you, would you get the chance to be arrogant here? I advise you best not to ddle, take your half-dead wife and leave, as far as possible."
"What did you say?"
Ye Mo’s face changed, and with a grasp of his hand, Xiong Qing’s neck was imdiately clutched, lifting him up.
Xiong Qing’s face imdiately turned red, letting out creaking noises, unable to escape. He seed not to have expected that Ye Mo would dare to lay hands on him in Great Wilderness City in front of so many people.
"Ye Mo, don’t act on impulse."
Zhu Jiu imdiately said.
"Hmph!"
Ye Mo flung him away, saying, "For soone like you, if it weren’t for relying on having a formidable father, you’d not survive more than three days."
"Let’s go!"
Ye Mo said.
A few Loose Cultivators glanced at Xiong Qing with disdain and followed Ye Mo, having the least regard for waste like Xiong Qing.
"Hmph, this Ye Mo, dare to act here, just wait and see."
Xiong Qing got up and left with a group of people in frustration.
When Ye Mo and his companions reached a grand pavilion, Ye Mo was instantly awestruck by the building in front of him. Though it’s not yet ti for entry, there were still so people trickling in.
Moreover, the pavilion was as large as Listone City, a giant structure like a mountain.
It was Ye Mo’s first ti seeing such an exaggerated pavilion, wondering the imnse wealth it must have cost to build.
"This is Dahuang Pavilion, Great Wilderness City’s foremost pavilion and the largest comrcial building. Let’s go inside."
As Zhu Jiu spoke, he led Ye Mo and others into Great Desolation Tower, leading them through it, arriving at a grand hall guarded on both sides.
"Are you Miss Zhu? Master Wangchen has been waiting in the hall for a long ti."
spoke one of the guards.
Zhu Jiu nodded, waved his hand, and led Ye Mo and others directly into the hall.
Upon entering the hall, Ye Mo noticed quite a few experts inside. Their skin was purple-brown, dressed peculiarly, resembling the Wraith Demon Emperor, with martial arts realms around Divine Venerate Two-Soul to Three-Souls.
"These people are all experts from the Wraith Clan, also joining the escort team, although they’re not under your jurisdiction. You’re responsible for different areas, but you mustn’t offend them."
Zhu Jiu quietly reminded.
"Miss Zhu, are these the twenty experts you’ve selected?"
At this mont, a voice echoed, and a middle-aged man erged from the inner hall, scrutinizing Ye Mo and others.
Ye Mo also observed this man. He wore a purple robe, stood with hands clasped behind him, and was resolute, sharp-eyed, presumably reaching Divine Venerate Four Souls.
"Master Wangchen, the twenty people are carefully chosen experts, and this one is the captain of this escort team, Ye Mo."
Zhu Jiu introduced.
"Greetings, Master Wangchen."
Ye Mo and the twenty others stepped forward to salute.
"Hmm!"
Wangchen nodded but didn’t pay much attention to their strength.
"You are called Ye Mo, right? Your task is to maintain order at this auction. However, you’re only responsible for the outer area. My experts will handle the inner area. If there are troublemakers outside, you can imdiately throw them out, and if anything happens inside that can’t be managed, you must enter to support."
Upon Wangchen’s words, Zhu Jiu and Ye Mo’s faces slightly changed.
"Master Wangchen, didn’t you say we’d handle the inner area?"
Zhu Jiu again bowed and asked.
The inner area is most prone to incidents, so the price previously given was for inner area responsibility.
"Due to the importance of this auction, I’ve mobilized so experts from the clan, all elite, so they’ll ensure inner area security."
Wangchen said.
"And the price?"
Zhu Jiu mustered courage to ask.
"The price is naturally calculated by the outer area’s rate, no less, one million Wheel of Reincarnation Pills, okay?"
Wangchen said.
Instantly, Zhu Jiu’s face beca unpleasant. Excluding his family’s ten guards and the strongest Ye Mo, the other ten hires were at a million Wheel of Reincarnation Pill rate. Handling the outer area implies a loss, and so many aren’t needed.
"Miss Zhu, what happened exactly?"
Ye Mo asked quietly.
"Originally, Master Wangchen agreed for us to handle the inner area, but he changed his mind last minute and won’t pay us the inner area rate."
Zhu Jiu said with an unpleasant expression.
"I see."
Ye Mo glanced at the personnel standing on either side of the hall, smiled, stepped forward, and said bowing: "Master Wangchen, why change this plan at the last minute? Let us handle the outer area? We are not ones to accept money without working; the employer has already prepaid us. If we handle the outer area and you pay the outer rate to our employer, they will lose money."
"I apologize for this, but the auction’s significance necessitated a sudden change."
Wangchen said apologetically.
"In that case, you should continue paying the inner area hiring rate to Miss Zhu."
Ye Mo continued.
Unexpectedly, Wangchen’s expression slightly changed, though he lacked justification in this matter. However, this young man’s audacity was challenging.
"Kid, don’t be ungrateful; if you’re guarding the outer area, you naturally only receive the outer area’s hiring rate."
At that mont, a Divine Venerate Three-Souls expert, seemingly their leader, looking fierce, full of Killing Aura, revealing two sharp fangs, imdiately understood Wangchen’s expression and stepped forward.
"Even so, Master Wangchen should have inford us beforehand. Don’t assu you can be unreasonable just because you’re part of the Wraith Clan."
Ye Mo coldly replied, even daring to suppress the Wraith Demon Emperor, not afraid of these small fry.
"Ye Mo, enough!"
Zhu Jiu tugged at Ye Mo’s sleeve, hinting for him to stop.
"Miss Zhu, though we’re partners, your words moved . You seek control over your destiny, and I know this hiring task is crucial for you. I will fight to secure it."
Ye Mo whispered.
Listening to Ye Mo’s words, Zhu Jiu’s body shook, her mouth slightly open, revealing an incredulous expression, as if her heartstrings had been plucked.
