Blood splattered everywhere as Character Z’s whirlwind circled around Baili Changcheng’s neck and stabbed it three times! The Defense of an Elemental Sword Artist was not as high as that of Lin Jie .
Just as Baili Changcheng was about to use Frost Armor, Chaos In The Sky suddenly appeared behind him and ambushed him with a Stun attack, killing him instantly! Unfortunately for him, an item he was wearing dropped out .
“Frozen Heart!”
A faint blue light flashed from Baili Changcheng’s heart before he turned into a corpse!
Chaos In The Sky took a glance at all the members of Supreme Tribe and said arrogantly, “Hmph, a bunch of sheep without a shepherd is too weak to fight back . ”
“Kill them . Xuanyuan is taking over Frozen Tundra to hold an open auction in order to display his power . We have to match up to his strength . ” Character Z waved his hand casually, but a strange light flashed across his eyes .
They were all elite players, so who would want to live under someone else’s thumb?
However, they were still working in an alliance for now . Supreme Tribe’s 1,000 members did not have any capability to fight back . In less than 10 minutes, they were all wiped out by the Xuanyuan Alliance’s large army! Furthermore, the Xuanyuan Alliance’s players were revived by the Priests and barely suffered any loss .
Baili Xuanyuan was riding on a giant lion beast as he slowly headed towards Baili Changcheng’s corpse . He laughed coldly and picked up Baili Changcheng’s body before tossing it to his followers beside him . “My good nephew used Frozen Heart, which gave him immunity to the losses of death . After 5 hours, he’ll be reviving in a weakened state . Just nice, I need some decoration for my auction . Put him on the icicle . ”
“Haha, okay . ” A follower bowed respectfully before taking over the young Baili family’s young master . He headed towards the icicle while holding him like a chicken .
Dominating Icicle was the biggest natural building in Frozen Tundra . It was an ice building, which towered into the sky that seemed to be made of precious gemstones! It stood a few times bigger than the City Leader’s Mansion in the City of Light on the ice field .
Baili Xuanyuan stood below the Dominating Icicle and laughed . “Brothers, the Xuanyuan Alliance shall hold our first auction here . What do you think?”

“The location chosen by the boss is flawless, of course . ”
“What a magnificent Dominating Icicle . This indicates that the Xuanyuan Alliance owns the City of Light!”
“Pui, the City of Light? You mean the entire game! I think in less than a year, Xuanyuan would be reigning over the world!”
As his subordinates sang praises, Baili Xuanyuan laughed out loud . With his Half Moon Red Lotus Blade, he slashed out waves of Needfire Red Lotuses, which rushed towards the Dominating Icicle! In the past 10 days, he had once again accumulated close to 1,000 Ability Points . At this moment, he used up half of them, and numerous Needfire Red Lotuses instantly blasted the Dominating Icicle open! But, just how sturdy was the Dominating Icicle? Even with a skill like Needfire Red Lotus, only a small gap was formed on it .
“My good nephew, you will be on the Dominating Icicle watching the power that your uncle has gathered . I’ll show you that the Brotherhood, Steel Allies, and whatnot are all pieces of trash!” Baili Xuanyuan snickered as he threw Baili Changcheng up towards the hole in the Dominating Icicle . A Hunter immediately ordered his flying pet to position the corpse such that it was standing at the peak of the Dominating Icicle .
Although Baili Changcheng was in a corpse state, he was fully conscious . This was the greatest downside of using Frozen Heart—he had to stay online for 5 hours without doing anything in exchange for the ability to revive in a weakened state after the time was up . It was as good as trading his time for his level . At this moment, his heart was burning with rage, and his eyes were red from anger . Who would be able to accept such humiliation?
‘Baili Xuanyuan, I’ll pay you back 1,000 times for the humiliation I’ve suffered today!’ Baili Changcheng ground his teeth but was unable to make a single sound . He tried to move his body with all his might but to no avail . His actions were not able to go against the system’s rule .
Ding~

—’System Announcement (Calling out from Player Baili Xuanyuan): …
Ten whole announcements flooded the world channel! The entire game was blown up instantaneously! Xuanyuan Alliance was wealthy and aggressive, and it had gained quite a lot of fame in The New Age, as well as criticism .
However, now that Baili Xuanyuan had publicly announced his auction, which even prepared welcome gifts for those that would attend, it was really too much! With Xuanyuan Alliance’s resources, everyone should be getting a red packet of at least 10 gold coins!

On top of that, he had announced that he was in alliance with the number one guild of Sunshine City, Never Setting Sun, the number two guild of the City of Evening Mist, Vampire City, and the number one guild of Apocalyptic City, Knight’s Glory! Xuanyuan Alliance’s power was at the very top! Furthermore, what did it mean for him to hold an auction outside of the City of Light? He was clearly stealing the business of the Central Auction House!
In less than 30 minutes, Frozen Tundra was filled with numerous players from all over the place, who came rushing over! There were solo players that had come to collect the gift, mercenaries, who had come to seek protection by joining the guild, and wealthy players, who had come to buy a few pieces of equipment . Of course, there were also people from the Brotherhood!
“God damn it, we can get money just for attending, right? Let’s go and collect some money for us!”
With the order, countless members of the Brotherhood rushed over . However, these players were not doing this solely for the Brotherhood . Each of them had their own motives and were trying to benefit from it—they were mostly there for the free money .
Only the members who refused to relent under the pressure of the Xuanyuan Alliance and continued to put on Hermit Helmets were the true loyal warriors . These were the people who were accepted into the Brotherhood’s Private Corps by Bu Yi .
Frozen Tundra was filled with a sea of people!
Half of the players from the City of Light were gathered there! Players from Sunshine City, City of Evening Mist… had arrived as well, and were awaiting the thousands of items that would be up for auction!
Baili Xuanyuan looked at the crowd, which was packed like sardines, and his heart swelled with pride . So many people… were all crawling under his feet! He waved his hand, and more than 200 underlings ran up the Dominating Icicle while carrying all sorts of strange equipment . These were [Goblin’s Sonic Siege Equipment], which he had spent hundreds of gold coins to buy from the Goblin Engineering Association . The equipment, which was a sieging tool, could amplify sounds by a hundred times . However, it was used as a megaphone by him .
Baili Xuanyuan cleared his throat and said loudly, “Welcome all! First of all, can all the brothers of the Xuanyuan Alliance give our friends, who are present, a red packet? In each red packet, there is an item that is worth at least 10 gold coins . If you are lucky, you can even win some additional reward that we have prepared beforehand!”
The atmosphere was filled with excitement immediately . ‘Xuanyuan Alliance is really wealthy and generous, they are actually giving everybody a red packet!’ everyone thought .
“There are tens of thousands of people present . If everyone gets 10 gold coins, that’s hundreds of thousands of gold coins! Our Xuanyuan Alliance is making a huge sacrifice, so I hope that everyone can give us some face and be generous with the bidding so that we won’t be making a huge loss . ”
With that, many players that received the red packet exclaimed, “Boss Xuanyuan’s items are all top-grade . We have to bring out our entire assets to bid for them!”
“The Xuanyuan Alliance is so rich, this amount of money is peanuts . Boss Xuanyuan, don’t be too humble . ”
Indeed, 100,000 gold coins was a terrifying amount . They were worth tens of millions of dollars in real-life! However, Never Setting Sun, Vampire City, and Knight’s Glory were all top guilds . After splitting the money, it was nothing . Furthermore, the Xuanyuan Alliance had been wiping out players . Tons of equipment was dropped from the players they killed from the Brotherhood, Steel Allies, and Supreme Tribe .
Speaking of it, Baili Xuanyuan was the one that had funded the Xuanyuan Alliance .
“Please settle down after you receive the red packet . This auction is mainly to serve everybody! As long as you have the capability, you can bid for the 5,000 Gold items and the 1,000 Dark Gold Fragments! But, let’s play a game and make this a little more interesting . If anybody has any rare or valuable items, you can pass it to us and sell it in your stead .
“In addition, the owner of the item with the highest bid in this auction will be treated as an elite member in the Xuanyuan Alliance and gain a piece of the Dark Gold equipment [Wind Spear]!”
Everyone cheered!
The Dark Gold Wind Spear was actually out for giving away! Was the Xuanyuan Alliance that rich? At that instant, there were tons of players who joined the Xuanyuan Alliance—some solo players could not even resist those benefits .
At that moment, at the corner of Frozen Tundra…
Zheng Ziliang ground his teeth and said, “Damn it! Baili is actually hanging in front of so many eyes! Such humiliation!”
Dumb Fox calmly said, “We have to take revenge for Baili Changcheng . But… there’s nothing we can do! The Xuanyuan Alliance has already colluded with large guilds like Never Setting Sun, Vampire City, and Knight’s Glory . With our current manpower, we can’t beat them . Baili Xuanyuan is too powerful as well . If we attack now, we’ll only be turned into stepping stones for their display of power . ”
“So, do we just sit back and watch?”
“No, we have to make a move . Otherwise, our Brotherhood would have no dignity left . ” Netherblue spoke up . Without Lin Jie, Savage Blade was missing their core support . She finally stood out and said, “We may not win, but that doesn’t mean we’ll lose! The 2,000 Brotherhood Private Corps Bu Yi had recruited… No, they should be called Dagger Squad, they have already mixed in with the crowd along with the men from the Steel Allies and Supreme Tribe . It’s not hard for us to create an uproar . Let’s leave Frozen Tundra immediately and use all our manpower to lure that fellow over!”
“That fellow? Do you mean Frost Garu? That’s the biggest Boss in Frozen Tundra who guards the map . A Sub-Legendary Boss!”
“Who knows how many of our people will die luring the Boss over . ”
“There’s no other way now . ”
While the Savage Blade’s members were discussing, Baili Xuanyuan announced loudly, “Let me announce the first item up for auction . As everyone knows, the first and last items would be the most valuable of them all! The first item is naturally a rare and unordinary item . It is none other than the Dark Gold longsword [Extreme Cold] dropped from the elite member of Brotherhood, Baili Changcheng . It is a Level 40 longsword with top-grade stats, adding 150 points of Ice Damage, and increases Ice skills by 1 level . On top of that, it is a very sentimental item . The bid will start at 100 gold coins, and each bid has to be at least 1 silver coin higher . Everyone is welcome to start bidding!”
Kaboom—
There was a great commotion! Everyone knew that this was a public humiliation directed at Lone Wolf! Baili Xuanyuan had actually killed Baili Changcheng and taken his most important Dark Gold sword!
“Hahaha, 100 gold coins, and 1 silver coin!” A witty one followed . With just 1 silver coin higher than the starting bid, this was pure mockery .
Everyone knew that a Dark Gold weapon, a high-grade one at that, was worth at least 1,000 gold coins!
“100 gold coins and 2 silver coins!”
“100 gold coins and 3 silver coins!”
The crowd laughed .
Just then, the icy wind suddenly became much stronger by a few times . It was blown onto the people, sharp like a sword as if it was trying to slice them apart! There was a loud howl, and a silhouette descended from the sky . The wings of Holy Light flapped viciously, and his entire body swept across like a blade, leaving a huge slash on the impenetrable Dominating Icicle .
Baili Changcheng’s body was immediately saved by him . The person scoffed and opened his hand, tossing out a token as if it was trash . “Hidden Job: Abyss Knight, Job-Changing Token . I attained it back when I killed Baili Xuanyuan out of boredom . Starting bid at 1 copper, with 1 silver coin as maximum . This is the auction item that I, Codename Lone Wolf, am contributing . Let’s start the bid!”
