"Try not to use force if you can help it, Huaxia is in a tumultuous time right now. Even if you're not one of us, we don't want anything to happen to you. After all, you are a Huaxia person!"

Jianghai said sincerely.

Actually, almost everyone familiar with Yang Yan in the Eight Divisions shared a similar sentiment.

Even though Yang Yan wasn't officially one of Huaxia's people, he was still Huaxia's person, and all his actions were aimed at protecting Huaxia's interests. Naturally, these people didn't want anything to happen to Yang Yan.

"Look at what you're saying, making it sound like I'm going to commit suicide. Don't worry, nothing's going to happen to me. Even if I can't beat him, he can't do anything to me."

Yang Yan said confidently.

After saying this, he took out his phone and sent Fatty and the others a message, telling them what he was going to do next.

Without waiting for Fatty and the others to reply, Yang Yan turned off his phone and put it back in his pocket.

"Alright, you take her back first! It's dark, the auction has ended, and now the real show begins. Unfortunately, outsiders can't get in, so you won't get to see it."

Yang Yan said to Jianghai.

"Please be careful, and don't overexert yourself."

After Jianghai finished speaking, he stood up and gestured towards Wuyan, inviting her to leave.

"I don't know what you're going to do, I can't be of any help as a woman. I'll wait for you at Prosperous Court tonight. You can do whatever you want when you get back!"

Wuyan whispered in Yang Yan's ear.

Damn!

This is blatant temptation!

This little enchantress really is irresistible.

Yang Yan glanced at Wuyan, who had already walked away with Jianghai, and felt the desire in his heart rise again.

Once the last item at the auction was sold, the auctioneer was the most excited person there.

Everything today was successfully auctioned, with no items left unsold, and two items even exceeded expected prices, earning him a commission of three million.

At this point, those who bought items were waiting to sign contracts and complete transactions, while most of those who didn't buy anything had left.

Yang Yan also followed the crowd out towards the door.

Outside the auction venue, he found a dark spot and then disappeared into thin air.

When he reappeared, he was already standing on the roof of the auction building.

He stood atop the lightning rod, allowing the cold wind to blow his clothes wildly.

Even though his eyes were closed, the elderly man and the handsome young man's every move appeared in his mind.

The successful auction items were handled by dedicated personnel, with no need to wait in line.

At this time, the elderly man had completed his transaction, but the young man did not handle the paperwork personally.

An elder with a stern expression handled it for him.

He sat to the side, staring intently at Xu Yi without taking his eyes off her.

Yang Yan frowned slightly.

He didn't understand why the other person was staring at Xu Yi like that.

But judging from the man's expression, he likely wasn't interested in Xu Yi romantically.

How to put it, it was like a child seeing a delicious treat!

Yang Yan had seen many crazed individuals, but this was the first time he'd seen one like this handsome young man.

Xu Lianjiang took Xu Yi out of the auction, got into a black car, and drove towards the suburbs.

Earlier, Yang Yan had specifically asked Jianghai, and he learned that the Xu Family was in that direction.

Last time, Yang Yan attended a charity auction with Zhou Hanyun, where they encountered an old man with the surname Xu, named Xu Chuan. He seemed to be Xu Yi's third granduncle and also Xu Lianjiang's grandson?

"Ah! They're all old immortals!"

Yang Yan sighed and muttered.

Shortly after Xu Lianjiang and Xu Yi left, that handsome young man vanished into the shadows.

This surprised Yang Yan.

He had clearly locked onto the man with his Divine Sense, yet he still vanished.

"In my current state, I am indeed too weak."

Yang Yan smiled helplessly, then with a blink, he reappeared on another building.

Even though he couldn't find that handsome young man right now, Yang Yan understood very well that the man's target was either "Sarahville" or Xu Yi. That couldn't be wrong.

Therefore, he only needed to follow the Xu family's car, and that would be enough.

Once the car reached the suburbs, with no tall buildings for cover, Yang Yan could only hide his figure in the darkness, following the car like a shadow, quickly moving through the void.

In the car, Xu Lianjiang took up "Sarahville" and slowly examined it.

The auction was an industry under the Xu Family, but lower-level personnel managed it, so he didn't know what items would be auctioned today.

It wasn't until a member of Huaxia Eight Divisions contacted the Xu Family that he learned there was something remarkable on auction.

Despite rushing over, he was still a step too late.

The "Blood Amber" had already been auctioned off.

He could only buy "Sarahville."

Although he considered buying back the Blood Amber from the other party, he could sense that the person was no simple figure.

He even felt a sense of danger from the handsome young man, instinctively wanting to avoid conflict.

"Ah! Let's just go back first! It's surprising for such items to appear three times here... no, it should be three items. I heard one was privately bought at a high price. I'll investigate who bought it once we're back."

Xu Lianjiang stared intently at the dagger in his hand, speaking as if to himself.

"Grandfather, is there something wrong? Is this knife really full of curses as the auctioneer said?"

Xu Yi asked Xu Lianjiang softly.

"Hehe! Girl, it's nothing, the blade does have something extraordinary, but ominous things are always ominous. I'll explain more once we get back."

Xu Lianjiang looked at Xu Yi affectionately.

He adored this girl, especially since she could be considered a person of the Hidden World now.

However, due to special reasons, they've been concealng it so far.

Screech—

Suddenly, the car came to an abrupt stop, and Xu Yi lunged forward, but Xu Lianjiang quickly protected her.

Once the car stopped, Xu Lianjiang checked on Xu Yi and saw she was unharmed but just a bit scared. He then asked the driver:

"What happened?"

"Grandfather, there's... a ghost in front."

The driver stammered.

"A ghost?"

Xu Lianjiang furrowed his brow immediately upon hearing that.

He opened the car door directly and walked slowly towards the front of the car.

The driver wasn't wrong, there was indeed a ghost ahead.

A human head accompanied by ghostly flames floated in the air, eyes brimming with killing intent.

Xu Lianjiang could tell right away that this ghost wasn't a regular one. It didn't appear by chance; someone sent it deliberately.

Xu Lianjiang glanced at the ghost and quickly released his Divine Sense to survey the surroundings.

At this moment, although it was pitch black all around, it did not hinder Xu Lianjiang's exploration.
