Chapter 2066: Chapter 2065: The Incident Occurs

No matter how tightly secured the Heavenly Destiny Auction House’s defenses were, in Zhang Xiaohao’s eyes, they were all just decorations.

With hardly any effort, Zhang Xiaohao had already located the treasure vault of the Heavenly Destiny Auction House.

No matter how deeply hidden or well-concealed, regardless of how formations and prohibitions guarded it, they could never escape Zhang Xiaohao’s gaze under the Heavenly Eye.

Standing outside the treasure vault, concealed within the void.

Zhang Xiaohao’s lips curled into a disdainful smile as he looked at the guards before him. With a mere flicker of his body, he openly entered the treasure vault right in front of them.

Swish!

Zhang Xiaohao’s figure flashed, standing on the ground, gazing into the vast space before him.

The treasures inside were equally abundant. As the premier auction house of the Divine City, its accumulated wealth over hundreds of thousands of years was extraordinarily immense.

Moreover, the Heavenly Destiny Auction House was about to hold an auction in the near future, so the variety of treasures collected was even more, ranging from all sorts of categories.

Even some of the more obscure items were exceedingly rare here, piled up casually with a label affixed, noting the name of a certain owner.

"Hehe! There really are plenty of good things here! Even some ancient items are present. No wonder it’s the Heavenly Destiny Auction House; its riches are almost catching up to those of the City Lord Mansion," Zhang Xiaohao said with a smile.

He took out a panda-sized cigar, deftly pinched it between two fingers, igniting it with a flame at his fingertips, and squinted as he began to smoke.

While smoking, he curiously examined the pile of treasures before him.

"Great Covering Sky Reincarnation Thin Cloud Technique!" Zhang Xiaohao shouted in a low voice.

Exerting his reincarnation law talent, countless blood-red powers of law expanded from within him, sweeping back toward the surroundings. In a swift whirl, the blood-red power of reincarnation had already filled the entire space.

"Universe in the Sleeve!" Zhang Xiaohao snorted coldly.

With a wave of his right hand, a terrifying sleeve that could cover the sky trembled violently in the air. The next moment, a dreadful suction burst out from the Universe in the Sleeve, pulling at the nearby treasures.

Seeing the treasures piled on the ground, under the suction of the Universe in the Sleeve, in just a few flashes, they were all completely collected, then stored by Zhang Xiaohao into the Shennong Ring.

After completing everything, Zhang Xiaohao withdrew the power of reincarnation and lazily exhaled a mouthful of smoke.

The next moment, with a flicker of his body, he vanished from the spot.

Sizzle...

Just as Zhang Xiaohao had slipped into the void, the array outside rippled in succession, and the brass door opened, allowing nine figures to enter from outside.

The leader was an elder, with a Unification Peak cultivation level, a highly esteemed elder of the Heavenly Destiny Auction House.

They had entered this time to retrieve an elixir for those cultivating in the Mahayana Realm, to hand it over to a mysterious cultivator.

Each of them originally wore faint smiles on their faces, but upon seeing the completely empty space, they were dumbfounded.

"Ah! What is this? Where are the treasures? Where have the treasures in the vault gone?" Upon seeing this scene, the tubby Unification Peak elder was stupefied and exclaimed.

Coming back to his senses, the fat elder’s expression changed drastically.

"Send the order! Seal every corner of the Heavenly Destiny Auction House, activate all formations! No one is allowed to enter or leave! If anyone dares to force their way in or out, they are to be killed on sight!" the fat elder commanded.

"Yes, elder!" the eight cultivators responded in unison.

They were all direct members of the family running the Heavenly Destiny Auction House, and they naturally understood that a major incident had occurred since all the treasures had disappeared.

Soon, the entire Heavenly Destiny Auction House was on the move.

Countless strong figures blocked all crucial exits, all formations activated, and under the stewardship of the Heavenly Destiny Auction House’s manager, a thorough search was conducted throughout the premises. Even if they had to dig three feet into the ground, they were determined to find the thieves hidden in the dark!

One two-hour period later.

All the methods they could employ had already been used.

Even the loose cultivators who had come to buy things at the Heavenly Destiny Auction House had their storage bags forcibly inspected, yet they still could not locate the whereabouts of the many treasures.

Seeing this scene, the manager of the Heavenly Destiny Auction House realized they had been robbed by a Mahayana Realm old monster, and not just any, but a top-tier master of the Mahayana, otherwise it would have been impossible to stealthily steal all their treasures.

At present, the Heavenly Destiny Auction House’s manager, leading a group of people, rapidly flew towards the City Lord Mansion.

As an auction running for hundreds of thousands of years in the Divine City, they naturally possessed an Air-Prohibition Token, and when the group hurriedly arrived at the City Lord Mansion, they found that there were already representatives from hundreds of major powers standing there.

The members of these factions were each no less powerful than those of the Heavenly Destiny Auction House, with some even stronger by a degree.

Upon seeing them, the manager of the Heavenly Destiny Auction House felt an ominous premonition.

Sure enough, just as they landed, an old rival ridiculed them.

"Why aren’t you staying dutifully at the Heavenly Destiny Auction House and rushing here for what?"

"Hmph! The business of our Heavenly Destiny Auction House is none of your World’s First Building’s concern!" the manager of the Heavenly Destiny Auction House coldly retorted.

"I say, you two, at a time like this, you still have the mood to bicker! Are you complaining that too few of your things were stolen?" the master of Divine Tower said coldly.

"Bi Fang Ancestor is here!" At this moment, a rooster-like cry rang out.

Following immediately, a massive aura descended from the sky. When everyone raised their heads to look.

A young man in a cyan robe, exuding the aura of a Mahayana Peak, stood coldly on the square, with the Divine City Lord and a group of significant figures behind him.

Seeing an embodiment of Bi Fang Ancestor appear, the leaders of the major powers present were each startled in their hearts, and the previously lively square instantly fell silent.

"I am already aware of your situation!" Bi Fang Ancestor said with a sullen face.

Upon receiving the report from the Divine City Lord that the treasure vaults of all major powers in the city, including the City Lord Mansion, had been robbed, he instinctively had a bad feeling and immediately thought of his own treasure vault.

When he checked and found that his own treasure vault had also been robbed, his face immediately turned grim.

Thus, the current scene unfolded.

"Ancestor, you must stand up for us! Our treasure vault has been robbed!"

"Yes, Ancestor, it contains the wealth we’ve accumulated over hundreds of thousands of years!"

"Ancestor, we plead with you to capture the thief leader and bring them to justice!"

The representatives of the major powers below each pleaded.
