Chapter 538: Looking For Zhao Qing'er
Ye Xiao kept hunting and in the next few days, he had hunted down many Ancient Immortal Realm Origin Beasts. There was also one Early Body Stage Dao Manifestation Realm Origin Beast in the list of his hunt.
On the other hand, many disciples and some elders of the Soaring Star Sect were also searching for Ye Xiao with all their might. But... Since Ye Xiao never stayed at a single place and kept moving to hunt down the Origin beasts, he never came across these people.
On this particular day, Ye Xiao once again entered the Fifth Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda and return back to the Green Blood Demon World.
He had spent a total of twenty days on the Ancient Divine World but here, in the Upper Realm, only two days passed.
As long as Ye Xiao was still in the Upper Realm, he can only go to the Ancient Divine World one more time. It was because the Gate on the Fifth Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda could only allow Ye Xiao to go to any world of Divine Realm for only two times at most, as long as he was still at the Upper Realm and had yet to ascend.
He could go to any world of the Upper Realm through the Gate on the Fifth Floor for as many times as he wants. It was also because Ye Xiao's current affiliation was on the Upper Realm.
Yes, after ascending to the Divine Realm, Ye Xiao could once again go to the Ancient Divine World or any other world there through the Gate on the Fifth Floor of Nine Story Pagoda. At that time, there would be no limit to how many times he could travel back and forth.
Of course, at that time, the limitation will be applied on going back to the worlds of the Upper Realm and the Lower Realm.
.....
_Hidden Demon Auction House_
Ye Xiao arrived in front of the Hidden Demon Auction House. Today was the day of the auction and he needed to participate in it. Only then can he get Zhao Qing'er back.
But...
Ye Xiao didn't enter the auction house after arriving here. Instead, he started looking around for someone. The crowd in front of the Auction House was no joke. There were just too many demons and demonic cultivators gathered here.
Even those demons and demonic cultivators had come who could not enter the auction house because they did not have invitation cards. Maybe, they were just too excited about the auction, after all, this auction was the biggest auction of the entire Green Blood Demon World.
Ye Xiao had promised Yi Meng that he'll meet her at the auction house. So, right now, he was looking for her. He guessed that Yi Meng must have also been looking for him at this time.
As expected, after about five minutes, Ye Xiao saw Yi Meng who was waving her hands at him. Ye Xiao smiled and moved toward her. She also walked to him and said, "I thought something happened to you and you were not going to come."
Her voice was filled with some guilt and also a relief. She was feeling guilty for leaving Ye Xiao behind at the Black Desert... though Ye Xiao was the one who told her to leave.
She knew how dangerous it was in the Black Desert. Ye Xiao was on his own, facing the life-threatening danger. Seeing him in front of her safe and sound made Yi Meng relieved. Only now did her guilt lessened a little.
"Haha, what can happen to me? I already told you that I will definitely come here. If I was not confident, why would I tell you this?" Ye Xiao laughed, making Yi Meng feel more comfortable.
Then, both of them entered the auction house by showing the invitation to the guards guarding the gate.
Yi Meng didn't have the invitation but Ye Xiao did. Because of him, she was also able to enter.
.....
"Do you want to buy something here?" Yi Meng asked.
Ye Xiao nodded and said, "You'll know when the times come. Let's go first."
Very soon, both of them were led by an assistant demon to a gate. Opening the gate, both of them entered the room. But, instead of appearing in a room, Ye Xiao and Yi Meng appeared in a large field.
This was another dimension where all the auction items were placed.
Both of them saw many rows of items in their left and right. Many demons were looking at those items and were placing their bids.
There were many eye-catching items placed. Just looking at those items made Ye Xiao and Yi Meng's eyes shine brightly. But the majority of items were for demons to use.
"Violent Wind Immortal Fruit, Black-Striped Golden Thread Python Egg, Scarlet Blood Soul Refining Stone, Blood Evil Demon Spirit Technique, Blood Demon Sun Fist, Dark Blood Shadow Essence, Evil Demon Blade, Nether Crystal Crimson Fire Stone, Heaven Rank Fire Soul..."
"Oh my god, there are so many treasures here. Who would have thought that such high-ranking treasures were all gathered at a single place? No wonder... it is no wonder that this auction is called the Biggest Auction of the entire Green Blood Demon World. Just the fact that this auction is being held inside a separate dimensional space is already enough to prove how majestic this auction is. Moreover, the land here is so big. We can not even see the end. As far as my eyes could see, there are only treasures. This is just...magnificent!"
Yi Meng was really shocked. She had never seen a scene like this. This scene was widening Yi Meng and Ye Xiao's horizons.
Ye Xiao was also attracted by many items. He had the impulse to bid for some of them but controlled himself. He started looking for Zhao Qing'er.
Looking around, Ye Xiao said, "Miss Yi, can you do me a favour?"
"Yeah, sure! What?"
"Let's separate and search for a girl. She was caught by the demons along with you. You were sold to the Blood Demon Sect and on the other hand, that girl was brought here and was placed for auction as a slave. I'm looking for her. Help me look for her!"
Yi Meng was surprised when she heard what Ye Xiao said. She remembered that girl who was caught along with her.
At that time, she was escaping from a Late Stage Ancient Demon Realm demonic beast. While she was still running for her life, she came across a beautiful girl whose face was covered with a veil. She didn't know who this girl was but when she asked for her help, that girl didn't refuse her. Both of them worked together to distract the demonic beast and escaped successfully.
But, they had just escaped from the demonic beast and were caught by a bald demon who had four hands.
They were already very tired and out of spirit energy. On top of that, this was a demon world where demonic energy floats in the air. The spirit energy was very thin, so... quickly recovering the lost spirit energy was impossible in the situation they were in. They had no strength to retaliate or fight that bald demon.
It was also because of this that both girls were caught by the bald demons so easily.
After catching both of them, that demon sealed their cultivation base so that they could not retaliate. After that, he sold Yi Meng to the Blood Demon Sect while bringing Zhao Qing'er here to auction her off as a slave.
Only now did she understand why Ye Xiao wanted to search for the biggest auction of the entire Green Blood Demon World.
That girl who helped her must have some sort of relationship with Ye Xiao. Only this could explain why Ye Xiao took such a great risk to come to the Eastern Wasteland and participate in this auction.
It has to know that this was a once-in-1000-year held auction, the biggest auction of the entire world. It also meant that almost all the big shots of the Green Blood Demon World might have come here. There was an extremely large possibility for Demon Master of Blood Demon Sect to come and participate.
If she or Ye Xiao were to come face to face to the Demon Master, no one knew what would happen.
"Can I ask, who she is to you?" Yi Meng looked at Ye Xiao deeply and asked.
Ye Xiao answered in a deep voice, "She... she is my woman!"
Yi Meng had already expected this answer. She nodded and separated from Ye Xiao. Both of them started searching for Zhao Qing'er.
He came across many slaves in his way searching for Zhao Qing'er. Some of them were other humans who were caught, some of them were demoness, and some of them were demi-humans.
But Zhao Qing'er was nowhere to be found.
