In addition to the sea clan being a stronger force, the most important reason was that each of these sea clan experts possessed unique skills. Within the same realm, it was difficult for a human clan expert to be their opponent.
Ye Xiwen and the Wang family gathered under the restaurant.
“Unexpectedly, this time, even many sea clan experts have come. I am afraid it will be even more difficult to get what we want!” Wang Mengyu frowned. Things would become more complicated once the sea clan participated.
All human experts knew that, but they couldn’t do anything with these sea clan experts.
Human clans indeed had many experts. On the Ancient Barrens continent, if every human worked together, they could crush any sea clans in an overwhelming victory. However, humans had scattered all around the world and divided into many individual forces. As a result, humans were at a disadvantage facing any sea clan. Naturally, humans had not much confidence too.
“There is no other way. The Holy Realm Dweller’s Mansion is unlike other Holy Realm Dweller’s Mansion, which opens directly. Instead, it opens the outer areas first. After it has been open for some time, these sea clan experts will rush over as the news reaches them!” Wang Feiyun sighed.
Any human clan didn’t have a good impression of those ferocious sea clans. Of course, not all sea clans were like this. Many sea clans befriended the human clan, but in general, humans still didn’t have a good impression of the sea clan.
“But no matter what, these have nothing to do with us. We are only going to explore treasures in the surrounding areas. There shouldn’t be any conflicts with these top experts!” said Wang Mengyu.
Many experts from the Wang Family nodded. Although they were all Transcendent Realm experts, they are still too weak compared to the upcoming masters. The Wang Family group could only be regarded as an ordinary team. Having the leverage to explore the surrounding area was already not bad for them. If they were to enter the core areas, it could be their demise.
They knew quite well of their limits.
“Let’s go!” said Ye Xiwen.
Ye Xiwen and the Wang family headed straight to the Sunny Bamboo’s Auction House in the city center. Along the way, they saw many warriors heading in the same direction as them. Transcendent Realm experts were everywhere. Ye Xiwen’s team was not eye-catching in any way.
The Sunny Bamboo Chamber of Commerce’s Auction House was magnificent, seemingly flaunting their abundance of wealth. Sunny Bamboo Chamber of Commerce declared their superiority blatantly with its richly ornamented building. The carved beams had all accentuated Sunny Bamboo Chamber of Commerce’s resources too. Concurrent with this auction, Sunny Bamboo Chamber of Commerce’s financial resources shocked many warriors from more remote areas.
In this noisy crowd, two women were particularly eye-catching. One of them was none other than Scarlet Thunder Immortal, who had clashed with Ye Xiwen previously. The other one was a tall woman in purple.
Different from Scarlet Thunder Immortal’s charm, this purple-clothed woman was extraordinarily dignified and elegant. She was on equal standing of beauty but had a completely different charm. Scarlet Thunder Immortal and her had their unique appeal.
“Scarlet Thunder Immortal and Miss Yao are getting more and more beautiful. Both of them have outstanding quality. It is worthy of being the two beauties of Sunny Bamboo Island. Even in the entire Flourished Cloud Sea Region, they are well-known beauties! ”
“Indeed, not only are they beautiful, but most importantly, they are all strong. They may be future leaders on our Sunny Bamboo Island!”
“I don’t know who will get to marry them in the future. Those who achieve that would save efforts up to two thousand years. Scarlet Thunder Immortal will be the future leader of the Scarlet Thunder Gang. Miss Yao will also be the future president of the Sunny Bamboo Chamber of Commerce. They are both influential figures on Sunny Bamboo Island!”
People in their surroundings were whispering.
“Miss Yao?” Ye Xiwen asked Wang Mengyu next to her.
But, Ye Xiwen felt slightly emotional. Whether it was Scarlet Thunder Immortal or Miss Yao, he had never underestimated them. Even in Ancient Barren’s mainland, it was quite difficult for a woman to get ahead. It was even more challenging to become an influential figure leading a force.
“That Miss Yao is named Yao Qian. She is the Sunny Bamboo Chamber of Commerce chairman’s daughter. At her young age, she had outstanding strength. She was well-known in the Flourished Cloud Sea Region, in particular her beauty. Coupled with the demon beast, they are the two beauties of Sunny Bamboo Island. Are you interested?” Wang Mengyu looked at Ye Xiwen teasingly.
“Not really, but she is strong!” Ye Xiwen just looked at Yao Qian and said. He could vaguely feel that Yao Qian was more potent than Scarlet Thunder Immortal. It was almost instinctive, possibly Star Beast’s instinct.
“Of course, she is strong. Among the young experts in the Flourished Cloud Sea Region, she ranks thirty-fifth. She has both solid strength and distinguished beauty. You must be a foreigner!” Not far from Ye Xiwen, a man looked at Ye Xiwen as if he was a bumpkin and said with a slightly triumphant expression.
“Thirty-fifth?” Ye Xiwen was a little surprised. He just felt that Yao Qian might be strong but didn’t expect Yao Qian to be so strong.
Scarlet Thunder Immortal only ranks in the top hundred. Why is Yao Qian ranked so much higher than Scarlet Thunder Immortal?
Ye Xiwen looked at Wang Mengyu. Wang Mengyu was not surprised. Ye Xiwen was not a member of the Flourished Cloud Sea Region. It was not surprising he did not know many things that everyone knows. If Ye Xiwen knew, that would be odd.
“There are countless geniuses in the Flourished Cloud Sea Region. Those who can rank in the top hundred are the best among the younger generation, so the gap between them is quite small. Those between rank 90th to rank 100 are in the same power realm with only a slight difference amongst all of them!” said Wang Mengyu.
Ye Xiwen could imagine it too. Although Wang Feiyun was also Transcendent Realm First Level in South Initiate Island, he was much better than other ordinary Transcendent Realm First Level. Wang Mengyu and Wu Chenhai were much better than Wang Feiyun. Even if they were to be at the same level, the gap in strength was huge!
Miss Yao had a stronger aura than Scarlet Thunder Immortal. After Ye Xiwen integrated with the Star Beast’s bloodline power, he had become extremely sensitive to these auras.
“I have not seen the two muse for a long time. After the last banquet, we have not seen each other for a full ten years. The two muses are still graceful as ever!” A clear voice came from not far away. It came from a handsome man in a yellow robe. The young man walked out and said with a smile on his face.
“It turns out to be Master Qi. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you. You’re graceful as ever!” Scarlet Thunder Immortal winked. Those who didn’t know her would think she was interested in themselves.
But, the yellow-robed young man was familiar with Scarlet Thunder Immortal. Although the beauty was on his side, he also knew that Scarlet Thunder Immortal’s usual mannerism was. If she were not like this, it would be surprising.
“Qi Dong, I didn’t expect you to be interested in the opening of Holy Realm Dweller’s Mansion this time. It seems that you’re well prepared!” Miss Yao spoke. Her voice was sweet, like a silver chime.
“Haha, I’m just here to join in the fun. Both muses are the host here. Please take care of me by then!” Qi Dong laughed loudly. He was gracious when facing the two famous beauties.
“Qi Dong, I didn’t expect even him to be attracted here!” Wang Mengyu exclaimed. When she saw Ye Xiwen puzzled, she explained, “Qi Dong is outstanding among the younger generations. He ranks above Yao Qian at thirty-second!”
Another young expert!
Ye Xiwen silently noted down the name. Qi Dong’s aura was almost the same as Yao Qian’s. Though, he was superior to Scarlet Thunder Immortal.
“It’s just a matter of our capability. Take all you want if you can!” Yao Qian just said indifferently, as if she didn’t care about Qi Dong very much.
“Hahaha, Muse Yao. You’re the same as always despite not seeing you for many years!” Qi Dong didn’t mind Yao Qian’s curt reply. He was aware of their status as the two beauties of Sunny Bamboo Island.
“Hahaha, maybe we’re not the protagonist during the opening of the Holy Realm Dweller’s Mansion!” Qi Dong laughed and said, “Hehe, the sea clan brothers, aren’t you also quite interested?”
“It’s great that you are still self-aware. This Holy Realm Dweller’s Mansion is at the sea bottom. Of course, it belongs to our sea clan. Your clan better not intervene. Otherwise, death and injury are inevitable!” At this time, a slightly hoarse voice came from not far away.
A middle-aged man with a gloomy face approached quickly. His face was a bit lean; he had an aquiline nose. A seemingly sinister air engulfed him.
Another sea clan expert!
Ye Xiwen could sense a completely different aura from this middle-aged man, utterly different from human beings. On temperature alone, one would think this middle-aged man was already dead. The temperature on his body was only ten degrees. This middle-aged man should be a cold-blooded creature.
“Bi Chen [1], tsk, I don’t expect to see you here. I thought you’re a coward dog fleeing from Jade Shadow Sea Snake Clan’s pursuit. You even dare to appear here. Aren’t you afraid of being hunted by your kin once they got news about it?” Qi Dong just smiled faintly.
The middle-aged man’s face immediately stiffened. It was apparent that Qi Dong’s words had struck his sore spot.
“Is he Bi Chen? Another fierce figure!”
“Do you know this Bichen? Could it be that some powerful character in the sea clan?”
“He is not strong, but he is famous for our generation. They said that he stole a treasure of his clan and escaped. His own kin has been pursuing tightly. He even killed his kin, who hunts him. He is ruthless!”
[1] Bi (碧) means Jade. The literal meaning of (碧尘) Bi Chen is jade dust.
