"Who? Who dares to raise the bid?!"

Murong Chong turned his head abruptly, his expression filled with anger.

The gray-clothed old man beside him, as well as everyone present, also turned their heads to look.

Even the auctioneer on the stage was stunned and turned their gaze over.

At this moment.

There was only one thought in everyone's mind, and that was, who had the audacity to disrespect Murong Chong like this?

It must be noted that Murong Chong was used to being lawless. He had a violent temperament since he was young and had a very narrow mind.

If you angered Murong Chong, there would be consequences!

Their gazes swept across, and then all fell on Xiao Ming.

They saw Xiao Ming, who was being stared at by so many eyes, with a calm expression, as if he didn't feel anything at all.

Through the discussions of others just now, Xiao Ming also learned about Murong Chong's identity.

But so what?

So what if Murong Chong had a noble status? I, Xiao Ming, am not inferior!

I am a true disciple personally accepted by Li Changfeng, the head of the Spirit Sword Gate!

The prestige of your City Lord's Mansion may threaten ordinary martial artists, but don't think you can show off in front of me, Xiao Ming.

Even if it's just a small Murong Chong, even if his father Murong Ce is here, Xiao Ming won't give him any face!

Everyone looked at Xiao Ming, and then their gazes all converged on Murong Chong.

They were all waiting for Murong Chong's reaction.

With Murong Chong's arrogant and domineering personality, he would probably explode and even want to kill someone.

After all, in Clear Breeze City, no one dared to openly disrespect Murong Chong in front of so many people.

Sure enough.

Murong Chong was furious, his eyes almost spewing fire.

"I bid ten thousand!" Murong Chong gritted his teeth.

"Twelve thousand!" Xiao Ming immediately raised the bid.

A commotion erupted on the scene!

If Xiao Ming's first bid was to show no respect to Murong Chong, then his second bid immediately after was a direct challenge, provoking Murong Chong.

At this point, it seemed that the matter had nothing to do with the broken sword fragment anymore.

Murong Chong cared about his reputation.

He absolutely couldn't tolerate someone openly provoking him!

Under the gaze of everyone, Murong Chong stood up from his seat with a "whoosh". His eyes were sinister as he stared at Xiao Ming and said in a harsh voice,

"Who the hell are you?! How dare you snatch the treasure from me, Murong Chong!"

When mentioning his own name, Murong Chong deliberately raised his voice, afraid that Xiao Ming wouldn't know his identity.

"Where am I from?" Xiao Ming turned his head to look at Murong Chong and said calmly, "I am your father."

A commotion erupted again!

Everyone, including Murong Chong, was stunned.

They stared blankly at Xiao Ming, unable to believe their ears!

Did this seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy just say something?

He actually dared to say that he is Murong Chong's father?

My goodness!

Are young people nowadays so audacious?

It's one thing to provoke Murong Chong, but to openly insult him and claim to be his father!

"It's over, this kid is completely finished." Someone shook their head and sighed.

"Yeah, humiliating Murong Chong is equivalent to humiliating the entire Murong family. If Murong Ce doesn't kill this brat, his prestige will definitely plummet. By then, who knows how much mockery and gossip there will be."

"Guess what kind of death this brat will have?"

"I reckon he'll be sliced a thousand times and tortured to death!" someone sighed.

While everyone was discussing, Murong Chong and the gray-clothed old man beside him finally reacted.

"You bastard, how dare you insult me? How dare you?!" Murong Chong was so angry that his whole body trembled, and smoke seemed to be coming out of his head.

He had lived for more than ten years and had never been insulted like this before!

"So what if I insult you? It's because you have a foul mouth and insulted me first!" Xiao Ming sneered and said, "Back in the day, I had a good time with your mother on a stone outside the city...hehehe..."

"And then, she gave birth to you, Murong Chong, my obedient son. Why don't you kneel down and call me daddy?"

Xiao Ming continued to mock.

In terms of verbal fights, he had never lost!

And this whole thing started with Murong Chong provoking him. If Murong Chong hadn't insulted him, Xiao Ming wouldn't have retaliated like this.

"Ah! I'm going to explode with anger! I'm going to kill someone!" Murong Chong shouted.

As he shouted, Murong Chong drew his long sword from his waist with a clang and was about to strike at Xiao Ming.

Just then, the auctioneer on the high platform frowned and shouted, "Stop! Fighting is strictly prohibited inside the Golden Jade Tower. If you have a conflict, take it outside!"

Murong Chong, who was already in a state of extreme anger, became even more furious after hearing this. He turned the blade of his sword and pointed it at the auctioneer, cursing angrily, "How dare even a dog like you stop me?!"

The auctioneer, who was unjustly implicated, was also furious. He immediately turned his head and shouted to the backstage, "Someone is causing trouble!"

As soon as the voice fell, a large group of Golden Jade Tower guards rushed onto the stage.

The leader of the guards, upon seeing the furious Murong Chong, couldn't help but be stunned.

Obviously, he also knew Murong Chong.

"Master Murong, please put down your weapon. Fighting is prohibited inside the Golden Jade Tower!" the guard captain frowned and shouted.

"Do you know who I am?!" Murong Chong shouted, "My father is Murong Ce!"

"No, your father is me..." Xiao Ming's voice echoed softly.

Upon hearing this, Murong Chong became even more furious.

And the guard captain, who had just rushed up, also looked at Xiao Ming in astonishment, thinking, "Who is this weirdo? He dares to humiliate Murong Chong like this."

No wonder Murong Chong was as furious as if his father had died.

The guard captain ignored Xiao Ming and looked at Murong Chong again, his face serious. "Master Murong, I warn you again, immediately put down your weapon!"

"Otherwise, don't blame us for taking action against you!"

After speaking, the guard captain also had a look of readiness to take action.

Murong Chong had never encountered such a situation before. First, he was humiliated by Xiao Ming, and now he was warned by the Golden Jade Tower. He felt that his dignity had been greatly challenged.

No one took him seriously!

Just as Murong Chong was about to curse again, the gray-clothed old man beside him quickly whispered, "Young master, you need to calm down. The Golden Jade Tower may not be a big deal, but their headquarters is not something we can afford to provoke."

"More importantly, our target has never been the Golden Jade Tower, but that idiot who courted death."

Upon hearing this, Murong Chong reluctantly calmed down.

He had always bullied the weak and feared the strong. If he provoked the Golden Jade Tower, he would have nothing good to eat.

The gray-clothed old man coldly looked at Xiao Ming and said angrily, "My young master is the city lord's favorite and most beloved son!"

"It can even be said that my young master is the future city lord of Clear Breeze City!"

"Kid, do you dare to provoke us? Do you know who our city lord is?"

Pausing for a moment, the gray-clothed old man continued, "Our city lord, Murong Ce, is a peerless powerhouse at the Divine Sea realm, just one step away from reaching the Sovereign Qi realm!"

"Who do you think you are, to dare provoke our Murong family?"

After saying this, the gray-clothed old man stared down at Xiao Ming with an extremely arrogant expression.

Others also cast their gazes, gathering on Xiao Ming.

The gray-clothed old man had already brought up Murong Ce. Now, Xiao Ming should be scared, right?

After all, Murong Ce was a peerless powerhouse at the Divine Sea realm!

Even if they hadn't heard of Murong Ce, upon hearing about the Divine Sea realm, they would be scared and their legs would go weak, with urine and feces flowing!

Under the gaze of everyone, Xiao Ming sneered and said in an indifferent tone, "Murong Ce? He's nothing."
