Soul Emperor Martial God

Outside the Ten Thousand Gold Mansion.

Xiao Yi said nothing, merely stepped aside slightly, and passed by Wang Xinghe.

Lih Fengxing followed closely.

However, just as the two passed by Wang Xinghe.

A cold aura instantly locked onto the two of them.

"In Star Swapping City, no one dares to ignore my words, Wang Xinghe."

Wang Xinghe looked at the two with disdain.

"Are you threatening us?" Lih Fengxing's eyes narrowed, a cold gaze fixed on Wang Xinghe.

This number one Heavenly Talent in the Wind Saint Territory, the Sub Hall Master of the Wind Shattering Hall who has long traveled between life and death, isn't as good-natured as one might expect.

It was only because he acknowledged Xiao Yi's strength and regarded Xiao Yi as a friend that he appeared somewhat amiable.

In dealing with others, he still remained the unruly and exceptionally arrogant Lih Fengxing.

Xiao Yi's shoulder shook once, dispersing the cold aura that had locked onto them instantly.

"A Heavenly Extreme Seventh Layer won't stop our path, move aside."

Xiao Yi glanced indifferently at Wang Xinghe.

Indeed, Wang Xinghe's cultivation was at the Heavenly Extreme Seventh Layer.

This indicated he had already entered the ranks of the Heavenly Extreme Late Stage.

As a young Heavenly Talent, excluding those senior strong figures, his cultivation was already extraordinary.

"Hmm?" Wang Xinghe frowned slightly, "A mere Earth Extreme Peak can see through my cultivation?"

Xiao Yi remained silent, not bothering to acknowledge him, glanced at Lih Fengxing, and said, "Let's go."

Lih Fengxing nodded.

"How insolent." Just then, a group of guards appeared out of thin air, surrounding the two.

"Did my master allow you to leave?" the lead guard shouted coldly.

Wang Xinghe stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the two with disdain.

Lih Fengxing's face already displayed killing intent.

Xiao Yi's eyes turned cold, a trace of Sword Qi assembled in his hand.

These Wang Family guards wouldn't withstand a few strikes of his Sword Qi.

"What, planning to make a move?" An elderly voice suddenly thundered like a clap in the ears of Xiao Yi and Lih Fengxing.

A surging aura instantly pressured them, making them unable to move.

"Phew."

"Phew."

Both spat out a mouthful of bloody spittle simultaneously, their faces turning pale.

"Infinite Sacred Realm." Xiao Yi's expression changed.

Beside Wang Xinghe, an elder had appeared, unnoticed when.

"Great Elder." Wang Xinghe slightly bowed to the elder beside him.

"Hmm." The elder nodded slightly, cold eyes fixed on Xiao Yi and Lih Fengxing, "Two wet-behind-the-ears boys."

"If I didn't see wrong earlier, you were about to attack our Wang Family's Young Master."

"With such meager strength, dare you challenge our Wang Family in Star Swapping City?"

Wang Xinghe stepped forward, saying coldly, "Hand over the Starfire Gloves, or neither of you will leave Star Swapping City alive."

"You can try." Xiao Yi stared directly at Wang Xinghe and the Wang Family's Great Elder, his fingers agilely gripping his Universe Ring.

"Using age to intimidate youth?" Lih Fengxing's hand flashed, a Token appeared in his hand.

It was the Wind Shattering Hall's Token.

"In Star Swapping City, it's not only your Wang Family that is a major force."

"Sub Hall Master of the Wind Shattering Hall?" The Wang Family's Great Elder frowned, apprehension flickering in his eyes.

Wang Xinghe frowned, said to the Wang Family's Great Elder beside him, "If we don't kill them, seize the Starfire Gloves first."

"Fine." The Wang Family's Great Elder nodded solemnly, instantly making a move.

Xiao Yi's eyes narrowed, he too moved immediately.

His aura exploded, effortlessly breaking through the suppression of the Wang Family's Great Elder, stepping forward, first to block in front of Lih Fengxing.

"I'll hold him off, you quickly return to the Wind Shattering Hall to seek Senior Li He."

Xiao Yi quickly spoke, his Blizzard Sword appearing out of thin air, a terrifying blizzard gathering at the sword's tip.

The battle is about to begin.

Suddenly, a figure stepped in ahead, blocking between Xiao Yi and the Wang Family's Great Elder.

Pa…pa…

The figure struck with a palm, instantly stopping the Wang Family's Great Elder.

The newcomer, dressed in a gold robe, was a middle-aged man.

At the same time, a team of golden-robed martial artists leaped out from the Ten Thousand Gold Mansion, surrounding everyone.

"Golden Robed Guards." The Wang Family's Great Elder's expression changed, halted his action.

"Great Elder, seize the Starfire Gloves first." Wang Xinghe shouted loudly.

"Fine." The Wang Family's Great Elder's face turned cold, making a move again.

The golden-robed middle-aged man's face remained indifferent, a golden saber appearing in his hand out of thin air.

Judging from its aura, this saber was at least of Sub-Saint Artifact level.

Hwa…

The golden saber slammed down heavily, the Wang Family's Great Elder's intention to make a move was instantly confined by the sword's formation, unable to move.

Alongside it, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Power was also immediately suppressed under the golden saber.

"So strong." Xiao Yi's pupils contracted.

Lih Fengxing laughed, saying, "The Golden Robed Guards are the law-enforcing protectors of the Ten Thousand Gold Mansion."

"Every Golden Robed Guard is a strong figure meticulously cultivated by the Ten Thousand Gold Mansion, each remarkable, this Wang Family's Great Elder is no match."

Xiao Yi nodded.

The Ten Thousand Gold Mansion is indeed the number one commercial force in the Central Region, a ruler-level force throughout the entire Central Region.

Even though this is merely a branch in Star Swapping City, it cannot be dealt with by an ordinary family.

At this time, an elder slowly walked out from the Ten Thousand Gold Mansion, it was the auctioneer from earlier.

"Ten Thousand Gold Mansion, what is your intent with this?" The Wang Family's Great Elder glared coldly at the auctioneer.

The auctioneer said solemnly, "My Ten Thousand Gold Mansion prioritizes reputation."

"Guests of my Ten Thousand Gold Mansion, we have an obligation to ensure their safety."

"If a guest purchases something from my Ten Thousand Gold Mansion, only to be robbed immediately upon leaving, where would our reputation be?"

"Hmph." The Wang Family's Great Elder snorted coldly, "This kid has already left your Ten Thousand Gold Mansion, he's paid his money, how dare you intervene?"

"Not so." The auctioneer shook his head, "My Ten Thousand Gold Mansion's trading companies span the Central Region, we have our rules."

"If the two young friends leave Star Swapping City, then their life and death would no longer be of concern to us."

"If they haven't left, at least for today, my Ten Thousand Gold Mansion has an obligation to protect them fully."

"You…" The Wang Family's Great Elder's face instantly turned black.

The auctioneer ignored him, proceeded to approach Xiao Yi and Lih Fengxing, and asked softly, "Do you, the young friends from the Wind Shattering Hall, need my Ten Thousand Gold Mansion to dispatch Golden Robed Guards to escort you back to the Wind Shattering Hall?"

"Thanks for the kindness, but it's unnecessary." Xiao Yi responded gratefully, shaking his head.

The auctioneer nodded, saying no more.

Xiao Yi and Lih Fengxing turned around and left.

Behind them, Wang Xinghe and others, faces cold.

The Wang Family's Great Elder, still restless.

But the golden saber standing in the way left them helpless.

...

Before long, Xiao Yi and Lih Fengxing returned to the Wind Shattering Hall.

Lih Fengxing let out a breath, angrily saying, "The Wang Family's Great Elder, such a bully by age, and he's still an esteemed expert in the Infinite Sacred Realm."

Xiao Yi smiled, saying, "He's stronger than us, nothing to say about that."

In the Central Region, strong people gather.'

The two are Heavenly Talents, but truly speaking of strength, they're really nothing.

"Star Swapping Day starts in about two and a half days." Lih Fengxing said, "Deacon Xiao Yi, what are your plans next?"

Xiao Yi's face turned solemn, saying, "To go into seclusion."

"Seclusion?" Lih Fengxing was startled, "Secluding at this time?"

Martial Artists in seclusion, often lasting several months, or even longer.

Yet now, only a bit over two days remain until Star Swapping Day.

....

First update.
