Chapter 1103

They had nowhere to dodge!

All these spiritual techniques were extremely powerful!

But strangely, none of the attacks were aimed at Tang Ruan.

It seemed these beastmen deliberately skipped Tang Ruan, wanting to take out the other three women first.

Zhao Chi was extremely puzzled.

He knew these beastmen might come looking for trouble, even attack.

But he hadn't expected them to make a move inside this auction house.

And to make a move in the 5th-floor VIP hall, no less.

Right when he had just stepped out of trading room No. 6, they brazenly attacked like this.

Were they really this crude?

This was far too off.

How dare they make a move here?

Weren't they just wary of this trading house a moment ago?

Was that only limited to within the venue?

Or only limited to during the auction?

No time to worry about that now.

Zhao Chi felt his adrenaline surge; everything around him seemed to slow down.

In almost an instant, Zhao Chi activated the Random Marker Talisman in his hand, scrambling the coordinates of Penglai Village.

Immediately after, everyone teleported away!

Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, Gu Qing, Qi Yue, and Zhuang Ya all vanished.

The spiritual technique attacks that should have been certain hits all missed.

Bang bang!

Bang bang bang bang bang!

Ice spears stabbed haphazardly and deeply into the wall behind Gu Qing; yellow stone chunks flew everywhere, and huge cracks appeared in the wall.

These ice spears were actually this strong?

They nearly nailed an entire stone wall into collapse.

Boom!

The instant Qi Yue vanished, that massive blade qi slammed straight into the wall.

The wall had already been cracked by the ice spears; now it shattered outright.

Rumble rumble!

The wall crumbled and split apart.

"Eek—!"

Behind the wall was VIP trading room No. 6; the few staff members from earlier were still inside.

After all, Zhao Chi had left quickly right after his transaction—only a few seconds had passed before this happened, so the staff were still nearly in the same spots as before.

The wall collapsed, directly crushing two staff members in the trading room outside.

The two female staff in the storage room were putting boxes away; now they stared blankly at the outside, abandoned everything, and immediately crouched on the ground screaming.

Because four bolts of lightning had already blasted in.

"Quick, pull your lightning back—don't hit the storage room behind!"

The beastman roared.

The beastman attendant beside him shook his head and said: "Too late, can't pull it back—can only let it blast through."

"Damn it, my axe can't be pulled back either, just have to let it go…"

Hum!

Hum hum!

The lightning clusters drifted like ghosts, flickering and unsteady as they entered the trading room and slammed straight into the storage room wall.

Blue ripples appeared on the wall, as if the lightning had broken through something.

Crackle!

Crackle crackle!!

Arcs of electricity shot out.

Huge thunderclaps roared everywhere.

Electric fields filled the entire surroundings.

Zhao Chi felt Tang Ruan's whole body itch; even her hair seemed to be standing on end.

The stone chunks and dust on the ground trembled and floated up, clearly affected by the electric field too.

At this moment, the giant axe arrived as well.

The axe that had originally been meant to chop at the three women now uncontrollably hacked toward the storage room.

Boom!

The storage room wall exploded apart, debris flying everywhere.

"Argh—!"

Both female staff members were injured by flying debris.

But thankfully they had reacted quickly and already crouched down—otherwise they would have perished on the spot.

Crash, crash, crash~

Stones kept falling.

The entire trading room was a complete mess.

Zhao Chi was truly a little shocked.

This power…

They're probably all high-level spiritual techniques…

Several staff members, unable to care about their injuries, all screamed as they rushed out through the broken hole in the wall, fleeing trembling past the beastfolk.

Zhao Chi wanted to scream too.

Because he had actually failed to teleport back!

Gu Qing, Qi Yue, and Zhuang Ya had all already returned to the territory.

Zhao Chi and Tang Ruan hadn't gone back!

Why?

Because I'm inside Tang Ruan's body?

It can only teleport one person?

Damn it, there's no such rule.

The two of them were teleported out at the same time, so teleporting back should work together too, right?

Tang Ruan 【My lord! My lord! Calm down quickly! What's done is done, hurry and think of another way! Leave the fighting to me, I should still be able to hold out for some time】

Zhao Chi 【I understand, I'm not panicking, I just don't understand why this happened. Don't worry, then you control the body's defense, and I'll use spiritual technique】

Tang Ruan 【No problem!】

Tang Ruan assumed a defensive stance.

Zhao Chi activated Enlargement and Lei Guang technique.

But he didn't use them immediately.

Because those beastfolk still hadn't attacked Tang Ruan, only closing in around him.

From the very start, their attack target had never been Tang Ruan.

Zhao Chi understood.

Their goal was those 2 Race Expansion Stones.

If Tang Ruan had put them in the system space, then even if they really could kill Tang Ruan, they wouldn't be able to get them.

After all, those 2 Expansion Stones were worth 5,000 gold coins, a sum of money that would be considered considerable even for an entire clan, let alone for them.

If they killed Tang Ruan, it would all vanish into thin air, and they'd get nothing.

And they clearly wanted those Expansion Stones.
