Asura Sovereign XIII

  “Grand auction?” Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei exchanged a glance. It seems there were things the two elders wanted in this grand auction of the Firmament Divinity Mainland. Otherwise, the two elders wouldn’t have gone all the way to the White Tiger Galaxy.

  “How long have they been gone?” Huwang Xiao asked.

  “About two days.” The maid answered.

  Two days? Huwang Xiao frowned. He tried asking the maid if she knew what the two elders wanted to bid for, but the maid didn’t know.

  Shi Xiaofei hesitated. Looking at Huwang Xiao, she asked, “Big brother Huwang, then should we also head to White Tiger Galaxy’s Firmament Divinity Mainland?”

  “Alright.” Huwang Xiao pondered, then nodded in agreement. They might as well, since he already planned to go to the White Tiger Galaxy’s Devil Domain Mainland to search for the last part of the Hundred Spirits Beast King’s body.

  Hearing Huwang Xiao agree, Shi Xiaofei rewarded him with a radiant smile, happily pulling his hand, “Let us leave now.”

  Huwang Xiao couldn’t help smiling at her excitement, letting her pull his hand. Out from the manor, the group of maids watched as Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei left on the phoenix’s back.

  Just like before, they both sat on the phoenix while the Dark Hell Tiger followed behind them.

  On the way, Huwang Xiao was curious what items were being auctioned in the Firmament Divinity Mainland’s auction that made even the two elders run all the way there in such a hurry. At this point, there weren’t many things in this lower realm that could rouse the old man’s interest.

  While Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei were making their way to the White Tiger Galaxy, a piece of news astounded the four galaxies. The Firmament Divinity Mainland was auctioning the godhead of a Heavenly God!

  Heavenly God’s godhead!

  The moment this news spread, the four galaxies’ masters were beyond astonished. At the same time, high level cultivators from almost every world surface flocked to the White Tiger Galaxy.

  In the shortest time, White Tiger Galaxy’s Firmament Divinity Mainland became the focal point of the four galaxies’ masters.

  When Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei heard the news, they were both dumbfounded. In the four galaxies’ long history, there had only been one Heavenly God master, that person from the Heavenly Mountain!

  ‘Could it be?!’

  While Huwang Xiao was thinking of this, another piece of news spread that this godhead came from the Heavenly Mountain’s master. What Huwang Xiao didn’t expect was the news mentioning that this godhead was found by the White Tiger Institute Principal’s personal disciple, Wan Zhenxing, at the Heavenly Mountain itself!

  Last time, when the Heavenly God’s blood pool appeared, Wan Zhenxing also entered the Heavenly God Mountain to search for it. He failed to find the blood pool, but he actually found the Heavenly God’s godhead!

  However, Huwang Xiao was slightly disappointed when he heard the following news; the godhead Wan Zhenxing found was incomplete, merely a broken piece of the whole godhead, one-fifth of a whole.

  Many other masters also heard the news, yet they continued to rush toward the Firmament Divinity Mainland.

  Even though the godhead was only a broken piece, it was still a piece of a Heavenly God’s godhead. If they succeeded in bidding for it, maybe they could research a Heavenly God’s heavenly law. Perhaps they could even comprehend the Heavenly God’s powerful techniques!

  Also, wasn’t there news that Wan Zhenxing had broken through to Highgod Realm not long ago? Could this fragment of the godhead have contributed to his breakthrough?

  Almost everyone believed without a doubt that Wan Zhenxing was able to advance to the Highgod Realm thanks to that godhead fragment.

  On the way, listening to the speculations and rumors, Huwang Xiao shook his head. If the Highgod Realm was so easy to achieve, wouldn't there be more of them?

  In his opinion, that godhead fragment was the least of all related to Wan Zhenxing’s breakthrough, otherwise the White Tiger Institute Principal wouldn’t agree with auctioning it.

  A few decades had passed since the Heavenly God’s blood pool appeared. Huwang Xiao was sure that the White Tiger Institute had labored over the godhead fragment all this while, but they didn't have any harvest, which was the main reason why they were taking it out for auction now.

  Learning that the auction would be held in three weeks’ time, Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei stopped rushing. With the speed of their beast mount and their use of transmission arrays in between, there was ample time for them to reach the Firmament Divinity Mainland.

  One the back of the phoenix, beautiful memories were made.

  Because the Dark Hell Tiger did not conceal its aura, even though they came across more than a few cultivators going in the same direction, there had been no more troubles.

  With accurate timing, Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei arrived at the Firmament Divinity Mainland exactly twenty days later.

  Being the largest mainland in the White Tiger Galaxy, the Firmament Divinity Mainland was to the White Tiger Galaxy what the Cloudsea Mainland was to Black Tortoise Galaxy, the center of activity. The prosperous and bustling Firmament Divinity Mainland was now crowded with visitors coming for the auction.

  Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei travelled to the White Tiger City on the phoenix’s back.

  Ch.810

  White Tiger City was a place built and governed by the White Tiger Institute, and also the location where the grand auction was going to be be held.

  Soon, Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei reached the White Tiger City. After paying twenty thousand Baihu coins as entry fees, the two of them walked into the city.

  As they walked through the city gates, the surrounding people couldn’t resist taking a second look, a third look, and more at Shi Xiaofei. Although there were many masters flocking to White Tiger City in recent days, a beautiful young woman like Shi Xiaofei was rare, and these White Tiger City disciples had yet to see someone with her beauty.

  After reaching White Tiger City, looking at the busy and prosperous streets, Shi Xiaofei was in a good mood, enthusiastically looking left and right. She pulled Huwang Xiao’s hand, dragging him to go shopping.

  Watching her actions, Huwang Xiao squirmed inside. He would rather fight a Third Order Highgod Realm master than accompany a woman shopping the whole day.

  Upon entering the city, Huwang Xiao had the phoenix and Dark Hell Tiger converge their auras, but even so, they couldn’t avoid being the center of attention.

  This was because of Shi Xiaofei.

  Those who had seen her would turn their heads again and again.

  The men did this, and even the women!

  There was a young family disciple who couldn’t take his eyes off Shi Xiaofei as he walked and ended up banging his head into a stone pillar in front of him.

  Watching this, peals of laughter bubbled up from Shi Xiaofei’s mouth.

  That family disciple was fuming in anger at his misfortune, but was dazed looking at Shi Xiaofei’s laughing face, unconsciously starting to laugh like a fool.

  Huwang Xiao was beyond speechless. He finally experienced for himself the troubles a beauty could bring.

  Ever since Shi Xiaofei awakened her Pure Luminance Enlightened Buddha Physique, her every gesture, every smile, every frown possessed an indescribable charm.

  This was precisely the reason why small problems like these came in endless waves after they stepped into the city, troublemakers appearing one after another.

  Then again, Huwang Xiao was too lazy to handle every person that thought with their lower brain, passing the important task of handling these people to the Phoenix and Dark Hell Tiger.

  There was no lacking of God Realm cultivators amongst those who came to disturb them, including Eighth Order and Ninth Order God Realm cultivators, but before the two perfections stage late-Tenth Order God Realm demonic beasts, they were nothing.

  Huwang Xiao was glad that he brought these t
wo beast mounts out with them, or else he’d have to handle all the annoying pests himself.

  In every shop they entered, Shi Xiaofei would buy everything she liked. She knew that Huwang Xiao was a rich man with no place to spend his money, thus she didn’t bother to be frugal for his sake.

  A while later, various things began to fill Huwang Xiao’s spatial ring. By the end of the day, piled together, these things reached a hundred zhang tall.

  “Big brother Huwang, let's rest at this inn tonight.” When they were passing by an inn, Shi Xiaofei suggested.

  Huwang Xiao raised his head to read the signboard, the inn was called Heavenly Feast Inn.

  Judging from the outside, the inn was magnificently decorated. Huwang Xiao nodded, as it was already dusk and they indeed needed a place to rest for the night and eat something.

  The two of them entered the inn, while the phoenix and Dark Hell Tiger shrunk to miniature sizes, no bigger than a kitten, resting on the left and right of Huwang Xiao’s shoulders.

  Due to the sudden influx of cultivators coming to the White Tiger City, many places were already full. Huwang Xiao’s eyes swept over the hall and saw three empty tables, but the locations were less than ideal. Thankfully, Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei weren’t picky about this.

  Sitting down at an empty table, they ordered some dishes and wine.

  Feeling the stares coming from the other tables evoked a bitter smile in Huwang Xiao’s heart, ‘Looks like it'll be hard to sit down and have a drink in peace.’

  No doubt, these intense stares were directed at Shi Xiaofei.

  According to Huwang Xiao’s prediction, there would definitely be some big family’s young master or prominent sect’s young lord coming over, trying to strike up a conversation.

  As expected, shortly after Huwang Xiao and Shi Xiaofei placed their order, from a table not far from theirs, a young man dressed in a goose yellow brocade robe was staring feverishly at Shi Xiaofei’s alluring face, clucking his tongue, “I never imagine there would be this kind of little beauty in the world, coming to White Tiger Galaxy this time was truly the right decision.”

  “Young Lord, shall I go invite that little missy over?” Beside the yellow-robed young man sat two withered old men, one of which spoke.

  That young man waved his hand, saying, “Such a beauty, this Young Lord shall personally go invite her.” He stood up and approached Huwang Xiao’s table. Watching this, the two withered old men could only stand up and follow behind him.

  Huwang Xiao already noticed the young man’s actions. Watching him approach their table, a frown creased Huwang Xiao’s brows. Although he didn't put the yellow-robed young man in his eyes, the two withered old men were actually Highgod Realm masters! Even though they were only mid-First Order Highgod Realm masters, it showed the power behind this young man.

  However, Huwang Xiao was unable to determine which force in the four galaxies could allocate two Highgod Realm masters as bodyguards for their young lord.

  ‘Could it be, they are not from the four galaxies?’ This possibility flashed in his mind.

  There was also a tiny frown on Shi Xiaofei’s smooth forehead. Apparently, she too had noticed the yellow-robed young man. Then again, even frowning, Shi Xiaofei was a still beauty. The yellow-robed young man’s eyes lit up looking at her expression.

  “This young miss, I am Yelu Tianhao of Saint Lord Galaxy. I would like to invite miss over for a drink, if miss cares to give me this bit of face.” The yellow-robed young man reached their table, courteous and polite as he spoke to Shi Xiaofei.

  The yellow-robed young man was quite dashing, with elegant features. Solely his looks were enough to charm a sea of women.

  Huwang Xiao blinked his eyes a few times, ‘Saint Lord Galaxy? As expected, they aren't from our four galaxies.’

  Yelu Tianhao?

  At the other side’s invitation, Shi Xiaofei didn’t even consider for a moment, bluntly rejecting: “Not interested.”

  At the receiving end of such direct refusal, Yelu Tianhao’s charming smile froze on his face, but he quickly regained his composure, “Since miss is not interested to sit at that table, me sitting here is just the same.”

  Clearly, this Yelu Tianhao’s face was thicker than the average person.

  Yelu Tianhao sat down before Shi Xiaofei or Huwang Xiao could say anything. However, only after he sat down did he notice Huwang Xiao. In a commanding tone, he said to him, “Your business here is finished, you can leave now.” Yelu Tianhao threw a high divine grade spirit stone in front of Huwang Xiao.

  “This is for you.” Yelu Tianhao said, pointing at the high grade spirit stone. In Yelu Tianhao’s mind, Huwang Xiao would hold the high divine grade spirit stone preciously with both hands, thanking him gratefully.

  Huwang Xiao was stumped for a second looking at the high divine grade spirit stone in front of him, nearly exploding into laughter. He managed to hold back, but Shi Xiaofei did not. Her laughter sounded like the tinkling of bells, a music to the ears.

  Looking at the carefree Shi Xiaofei as she laughed, Yelu Tianhao’s burned with desire.

  Right at this time, Huwang Xiao threw ten top divine grade spirits stones in front of Yelu Tianhao, “These spirit stones are for you. Now take your two dogs and roll off!”

  Yelu Tianhao was stunned looking at the ten top divine grade spirit stones on the table. Vaguely hearing Huwang Xiao telling him to scram, his expression was as ugly as it could be.

  Ch.811

  The two withered old men standing behind Yelu Tianhao were enraged hearing Huwang Xiao calling them dogs, killing intent gleamed in their eyes.

  Just when the two old men were about to attack, Huwang Xiao looked at the three of them, taunting, “What? Too little?” A light flashed around Huwang Xiao’s hand and another ninety top divine grade spirit stones appeared in front of Yelu Tianhao.

  With a hundred top divine grade spirit stones placed in front of them, rich spiritual energy filled the inn’s hall to the brim.

  All the other customers nearly snapped their necks, turning too quickly to look at the top divine grade spirit stones in amazement. The surrounding customers’ gazes gradually turned hot.

  Huwang Xiao pointed at the pile of top divine grade spirit stones, saying to Yelu Tianhao, “Look carefully, these are one hundred top divine grade spirit stones! As long as you and your two dogs roll away, these spirit stones are yours. But remember, roll!”

  Roll!!

  Yelu Tianhao’s eyes turned red in an instant. Staring fixedly at Huwang Xiao, his hands furiously clenched into fists as his killing intent soared.

  Right at this time, the surrounding customers started making a ruckus.

  “His mother, if those top divine grade spirit stones were for me, don’t even mention rolling out of this inn, I’ll even roll out of the White Tiger City!”

  “Bullshit, I’d be willing to roll out of the Firmament Divinity Mainland!”

  These people were looking at Yelu Tianhao with envy.

  A few pointed at Yelu Tianhao, snapping, “Punk, if I were you, I’d grab those top divine grade spirits stones and roll out of here in a heartbeat. You’re still discontent?”

  “That’s it ah, quickly roll! With that bear face of yours, you still dream of snatching that brother’s woman?!” Some began to mock him. Many of them heard when Yelu Tianhao said that he came from the Saint Lord Galaxy.

  An outsider dared act so conceitedly in the four galaxies’ territories.

  The already furious Yelu Tianhao exploded when he heard the ridicule thrown at him. He spun around roaring, “Kill, kill all the garbage!”

  At his order, the two withered old men released their auras.

  Whelming divine might shook the earth. The sky above the inn darkened and strong winds howled.

  All the cultivators inside the White Tiger City looked in the direction of the Heavenly Feast Inn in trepidation.

  Inside the inn, those who were ridiculing Yelu Tianhao immediately shut up,
fear appearing on their face, “High-Highgod Realm masters!”

  Yelu Tianhao disregarded these people, turning back toward Huwang Xiao with a grim expression, “Punk, you're frightened out of your wits, aren’t you? Get on your knees and eat all the bones on this inn’s floor, then roll out from this place! This Young Lord will spare your life once. Remember, roll!”

  Although Huwang Xiao easily took out one hundred top divine grade spirit stones, which indicated that his identity wasn’t simple, Yelu Tianhao wasn’t worried about this. In the tens of thousands of galaxies, his Yelu Family had never been afraid of anyone.

  While Yelu Tianhao was laughing wantonly, the two withered old men made their moves, their hands slapping down on the other people inside the inn.

  The force from their palms blasted the air and space cracked from the pressure, causing the people inside the inn to pale with despair. Although the present patrons were mostly God Realm cultivators, with some at peak late-Tenth Order God Realm, they still couldn't not put up the slightest resistance facing two mid-First Order Highgod Realm masters.

  Just as everyone thought they were dead for sure, a cold snort sounded. Although it wasn’t loud, it sounded like divine lightning from the ninth heaven in the ears of the two mid-First Order Highgod Realm masters.

  Booming sounds rattled their minds.

  In the next second, their palms’ overwhelming force halted in midair, as if the entire world had stopped moving!

  The despair in the surrounding people's eyes turned to daze, staring stupidly as the two palms that were about to fall on them froze in midair.

  Yelu Tianhao who was laughing wantonly was also stunned, not understanding what was happening. The scene in front of him had surpassed his ability to judge.

  While everyone was still in a daze, Huwang Xiao suddenly stood up from his seat, saying a single word that confused everyone present: “Burst.”

  The two frozen palm imprints exploded in the air like two bubbles, with a soft ‘pop’, vanishing without a trace.
