Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl
Chapter 398 - Chapter 398: Chapter 398: The Furious Ancient TribeChapter 398: Chapter 398: The Furious Ancient Tribe
That’s an auction house belonging to the ancient clan, and this is their territory. Who the hell would grow balls big enough to act up here?
The two exchanged a glance, instantly thinking that it must be Jiang Xiaobai causing trouble. Instantly, their figures disappeared from sight.
At this point, the ancient clan’s auction house had suffered significant damage. It was severe, the facade was completely destroyed.
Yep. That’s about it.
Although there was no significant loss of life, and the treasures stored inside were safe, the fact that their auction house had been bombed on their own territory was simply unacceptable.
Especially since this wasn’t the first time such an incident had happened. Similar events had occurred for several consecutive days.
The people from the ancient clan’s auction house were at their wits’ end.
They obviously knew who was causing the trouble, but they couldn’t catch these bastards. Especially since their methods were strange, no one knew when or how they rigged the auction house.
So now with the explosion, numerous people poured out from the auction house, scurrying around like headless flies, not knowing where the culprit was hiding.
The culprits could have vanished already.
“Damn it, damn it! This group of bastards really don’t know their place. Do they really think that we, the ancient clan, can’t deal with them?”
“You idiots, have you eaten shit? I told you all to be vigilant, but what happened in the end? This incident still occurred!”
“What use are you?”
The person in charge of the ancient clan’s auction house, an old man with a goatee, appeared at the entrance of the auction house as soon as the explosion occurred. Seeing the complete mess of the storefront, the old man was so furious he almost had a high blood pressure attack on the spot.
The surrounding people, attendants, and experts of the auction house all hung their heads in silence.
Although this old man was only in charge of a small auction house, he held a high position within the ancient clan. This was because he belonged to GuBei’s branch.
Currently, GuBei was thriving in the ancient clan. His entire branch was rising along with him. Many of them had gained numerous advantages after GuBei became a saint son and a junior disciple in Hai Xianzong.
This old man was assigned to oversee the auction house. If not for GuBei’s influence, this old man would not have had this privilege.
And because of this, no one dared to tamper with his words.
What a joke. Right now, he practically had a monopoly over the entire ancient clan. As GuBei was a saint son, his branch was always given the blind eye by the ancient clan, who didn’t care about minor slip-ups.
Therefore, everyone had to listen to the old man’s scolding.
“I’ve already reported this matter to the ancient clan. Within three days, experts will arrive. You must assist them in capturing those bastards!”
The old man with the goatee snorted: “If you dare not to do your job properly, hmph, you can all damn well go guard the mineral resources for the ancient clan!”
Hearing such an outcome, everyone trembled.
Guarding those minerals isn’t a job humans do; it’s exhausting. Plus, it doesn’t allow any chance to see the outside world, let alone lead the life that they are currently living – indulging in pleasures.
Moreover, through the reputation of the auction house’s experts, wherever they went in West Wind City, people respected them. Living a life where they were above the rest was quite comfortable.
No one wanted to live a boring, sunless plight.
Everyone agreed unanimously, and some even pledged that they would definitely capture the culprits. They vowed not to return unless they had succeeded.
With that, this incident was finally settled.
The problem was, recently, the ancient clan’s auction house in West Wind City had been attacked so frequently that everyone in the city knew about it.
Despite being afraid of the ancient clan’s prestige, they didn’t dare say it openly, but there were continuous whispers behind closed doors.
“Hmph, the members of the auction houses in the ancient clan are truly useless. They can’t even catch a few Xiao Xiao.”
“Are you crazy? Dare to speak of them like this? If that old man knew, he wouldn’t kill you! He’s from GuBei young master’s branch, the one who helped GuBei when he was in difficulty. How do you think he got this good job?”
“Why care about these intricacies? None of this is our business. We just enjoy the show.”
All of those who were disturbed by the explosion were all quietly scoffing.
Ao Cheng and Zhuang Huanling, who were also attracted by the commotion, were among them.
Hiding in the shadows, they could clearly hear the whispers of the people around them. The two looked at each other, both with furrowed brows.
“Could it be that in the Northern State, the realm of the ancient clan, there are actually people who are not afraid to die and are openly confronting the ancient clan?” Ao Cheng was shocked.
“Let’s put that aside. The most important thing now is that these people are enemies of the ancient clan and Jiang Xiaobai arrived here before us. It’s possible that they have already made contact.”
Zhuang Huanling was deep in thought, speculating: “With Jiang Xiaobai’s knack for causing trouble, he wouldn’t have let these guys go unrecognized. If we manage to find them, we might find Jiang Xiaobai.”
“But what can we do? The individuals who launched the surprise attack aren’t here.”
Ao Cheng replied irritably, “In my opinion, we might as well sit back and see how things develop. After all, my identity here is also quite special. Once my whereabouts are exposed, the ancient clan will definitely not allow me to leave peacefully.”
For a moment, both of them fell silent. Yes, Jiang Xiaobai’s identity was sensitive, and Ao Cheng’s identity was even more so.
If the people from the ancient clan found out Ao Cheng’s identity, they would be in big trouble. The entire Northern State would be thrown into chaos, and all members of the ancient clan would desperately hunt down Ao Cheng.
Jiang Xiaobai?
Well, even though he’s just a piece of trash, the ancient clan would definitely care more about Ao Cheng. If they could capture Ao Cheng, the Dragon Valley would surely compromise and make concessions over this matter!
They could even force Ao Yan and GuBei to get married. It’s possible.
Thinking about this, Ao Cheng was extremely depressed. Of course, most of the annoyance was directed towards Jiang Xiaobai.
“Damn rascal, why did he choose to come to the Northern State to seek his death, and now I also have to.”
Ao Cheng cursed internally. He was about to swear at the people of the ancient clan when he suddenly saw a figure dart across a rooftop in the distance.
“There! There’s a figure. It’s likely one of those who caused the chaos!”
“What are you waiting for? Let’s chase them!”
Zhuang Huanling snorted coldly and was the first to take action.
Soon after, followers emerged from the shadows. The figure was not particularly powerful, only in the late Yuan Infant stage. Considering Ao Cheng’s and Zhuang Huanling’s abilities, they could easily follow without attracting attention.
Quickly, they arrived in front of a waterfall. The person who caused the trouble did something, and the waterfall split open, revealing a cave.
Just as the person stepped into the cave, the inside lit up, illuminating his face. Seeing his features, the two were stunned.
“Jiang Xiaobai!”
