After traveling for nearly a day, everyone finally arrived at Huohuang City the next morning.
From the outside, there is not much difference in architectural style between this Huohuang City and other cities.
Huohuang City is an ancient building, and there are already some mottled cracks on the city wall.
On the top of the city wall, there is a raised platform at regular intervals, with a blazing holy fire lit on it.
This is the symbol of Huohuang City.
It was just early morning at this time, the rising sun was rising in the east, and the purple air was coming from the east.
The city that had been sleeping all night finally woke up slowly.
People come and go on the street, and various vendors set up stalls and pass through the sea of people. It is very lively.
Because the main purpose of coming to Huohuang City this time is to prepare for the Jiuxiao Festival, we may stay for two or three days.
After the four of them entered the city, they planned to find an inn and book a room first so that they could have a place to stay.
……………
Just walking into an inn, Xu Zimo unexpectedly met his fellow disciples from Taixiao Peak.
I saw two brothers, Ye Kai and Ye Xuan, also in the inn. They seemed to have just arrived.
Ye Xuan was wearing a white gown, her long hair was tied into a small braid behind her back, and she was carrying a large baggage.
"Senior Brother Ye, Junior Sister Ye," Lin Feng greeted with a smile.
"Several junior brothers have also come to Huohuang City," Ye Kai turned his head and said with a smile.
"Yes, it is said that this auction has been prepared for three years, but there are many good things.
Why don't you come and take a look," Lin Feng replied with a smile.
Seeing several people chatting with each other, Xu Zimo sat down at the table next to him.
Discussing with Jiang Changsheng what to order.
"Senior brother, just eat something simple," Jiang Changsheng said.
"How can we make do with eating," Xu Zimo shook his head and replied.
"Then I won't pay the bill. The spiritual crystals I prepared are all for the auction," Jiang Changsheng said quickly.
"Those who achieve great things don't stick to trivial matters, so don't be so stingy," Xu Zimo asked with a smile.
"You said you are so strong, why didn't you participate in the Taixiao Peak trials yesterday?"
"What's the use of participating? Even if you go to the Jiuxiao Festival, it will be embarrassing," Jiang Changsheng said nonchalantly.
"What do you mean?" Xu Zimo asked.
"You don't care about these things on weekdays. Let me tell you, among our Jiuxiao, our Taixiao Peak is the one at the bottom."
Jiang Changsheng explained: "You may not think that your brother is the emperor's son, but in other eight peaks, he is really not taken seriously by others.
Especially this year, Yuxiao and Zixiao, I heard, have produced several demon-level disciples.
In the past hundreds of years at Taixiao Peak, we have never even made it into the top three."
"So miserable," Xu Zimo smiled and shook his head slightly.
At this moment, Ye Xuan walked over, glared at Xu Zimo, and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Attend the auction," Xu Zimo replied.
"You were assassinated just a few days ago, how dare you run out," Ye Xuan asked.
"What? Are you concerned about me?" Xu Zimo said with a smile.
"I care when you die," Ye Xuan snorted coldly and turned her head to the side.
"Hey, senior sister, I just peeked at you taking a shower. As for you still holding grudges against me," Xu Zimo shook his head helplessly.
Said: "It's been so long, I almost forgot what it was like."
"You still said," Ye Xuan said with a blushing face.
"If you have time tonight, you can come to junior brother's room to help junior brother reminisce," Xu Zimo said with a smile.
"Go to hell," Ye Xuan directly pulled out the long knife from her waist and slashed at Xu Zimo.
"Xuan'er," Ye Kai called out quickly.
He frowned and said, "What are you doing?"
"Brother, he bullied me," Ye Xuan pointed in the direction of Xu Zimo and Jiang Changsheng.
Xu Zimo turned his head, glanced at Jiang Changsheng, then jumped up and shouted: "Changsheng, you shameless person.
How can you tease others casually? I, a man as upright and upright as me, am ashamed to be associated with you."
"You are a real dog," Jiang Changsheng glanced at Xu Zimo and said to himself.
"Forget it, since this is your first offender, I'll let you treat me to this meal to make up for your rashness," Xu Zimo waved his hand and said.
……………
A few people sat down and ordered a table full of dishes. While they were eating, they saw a group of people entering the inn.
There are five people in this group, wearing the same style of purple robes, which is quite conspicuous.
The purple robe is embroidered with mountains and rivers, and the waves are washed away.
"They are from the Shanhe Emperor Sect," Lin Feng said with a slight frown.
"It seems that they are also here for this auction."
Speaking of the Shanhe Emperor Sect, it is also commonly known as the Shanhe Sect.
We have to talk about the power layout of the Southern Territory.
There is only one divine sect in the Southern Region, and that is the Eternal Divine Sect.
There are two Holy Sects, one is the Realm Emperor Holy Sect, and the other is the Jiuxiao Holy Sect, the main clan of the Jiuxiao Emperor Sect.
As for the remaining Emperor Sects, there are at least five.
The Shanhe Sect and the Jiuxiao Emperor Sect were among them.
Naturally, this group of Shanhe Sect disciples also saw Xu Zimo and his party.
"Did you see that woman wearing a purple robe with a purple whip wrapped around her waist?" Jiang Changsheng whispered to Xu Zimo from the side.
Xu Zimo nodded slightly. The woman had short hair that reached her ears, and the purple gown she wore was a little tight.
The whip around his waist is like a long snake, entwined.
Among this group of male disciples, he was particularly conspicuous.
"She is the emperor's daughter of the Shanhe Sect. It is said that one person beat the entire younger generation of the Shanhe Sect into submission," Jiang Changsheng said.
"How do you know so clearly," Xu Zimo said with a smile.
"It won't hurt to learn more about it and travel to the Southern Region in the future," Jiang Changsheng said.
"There is also a young man next to her named Chu Cichao, who is her younger brother.
He has a similar status to you in the Shanhe Sect, and he is also a famous troublemaker," Jiang Changsheng said.
……………
After the people from the Shanhe Sect found a room to stay in, they sat down next to Xu Zimo's table.
The young man named Chu Cichao walked forward with a glass of wine and a smile.
Looking at Xu Zimo and the others, he smiled and said, "Everyone from Jiuxiao Sect is also here to participate in this auction?"
"Yes," Lin Feng nodded slightly.
"In my opinion, let's forget it. Your Jiuxiao Sect has been fighting among you all these years, and it's already sunk.
How can we compete with our Shanhe Sect with this little financial resources? It’s better to give up as soon as possible,” Chu Cichao laughed.
Ye Kai frowned slightly and was about to speak.
I saw the woman from the Shanhe Sect next to me suddenly stood up, looked at Chu Cichao and yelled.
"Ci Chao, what are you talking about? Hurry up and apologize."
After the woman finished speaking, she slightly clasped her fists towards Xu Zimo and everyone, and said apologetically: "My brother's words are not thoughtful, I hope you don't care about it."
"It's okay, I just hope there won't be a next time," Lin Feng waved his hands and said with an embarrassed expression.
