Qiao Nan’s insensitive attitude made Edelman Horace’s beard straighten in anger, his hand was shaking as he pointed at him, and he gasped for a while before he spoke angrily.

“Don’t think I dare not get you just because you’re being arrogant!”

“I’m always ready to play along.” Qiao Nan smiled, “Oh, he’s mine if you don’t raise the price.”

At some point, the elf on the stage raised his head, revealing his delicate yet icy face.

He was an indescribable beauty, with an otherworldly purity, but then his face showed an expression of disgust and sadness that made him vivid.

No matter who bought him, he would wait until he could get close, then he had to kill them!

Even at the cost of his own life, he had to!

The elf stared at the two people who were arguing, if the eyes could kill, Qiao Nan and Edelman were probably already poked into sieves.

“One million one hundred thousand!” Edelman shouted furiously.

“One and a half million.” Qiao Nan raised his bid lightly.

“You!” Edelman obviously hadn’t  expected Qiao Nan to raise the price.

He wasn’t worth one million one hundred thousand at all!

　　If it wasn’t for fighting with him, he wouldn’t have spent so much money on an elf!

Did he want it or not?

He couldn’t give up!

Just as this thought appeared, Edelman vetoed the idea.

So many people were looking at him, if he gave up, wouldn’t the powerful people in Bangal City see him as a joke?

At that time, it wouldn’t be a matter of his own face, but whether the Horace family could raise their heads among the powerful people of Bangal City!

He gritted his teeth and added another hundred thousand: “One million six hundred thousand!”

“Two million.” Qiao Nan directly added another four hundred thousand.

Edelman was panting like an ox, white light was coming out of his eyes, he was so angry that he almost stopped breathing.

This person, came to make him angry!

Where in the world did this brat come from that dared to rob something from him!

This time Edelman didn’t continue to raise the price, but called his butler over, whispered in his ear, and then looked at Qiao Nan out of the corner of his eye, the corners of his mouth hooked up into a cold smile.

He was reckless inside the auction house, when they got out, he’d teach him a lesson!

Edelman didn’t continue to raise the price, and Qiao Nan also breathed a sigh of relief.

Two million to him was a lot right now, and he intended to release the elf, which was equivalent to losing two million, he thought he would make money today instead he lost a lot, it was really heartbreaking.

　　As for Edelman, he wasn’t worth paying attention to.

Edelman’s level wasn’t much different from his, even if he really intended to make a move on him, Qiao Nan wouldn’t be afraid.

Unless Edelman could call a level ninety to come over.

“Two million for the first time!” The auctioneer looked at Edelman and found that Edelman had moved away and knew that he didn’t want to continue raising the price, so he didn’t delay and directly repeated it three more times to determine the ownership of the elf.

When the last call fell, the elf’s eyes finally fixed on Qiao Nan, he stared at him with a deadly gaze, even if his neck was strangled and his body was full of wounds, he wanted to have Qiao Nan’s figure engraved into his mind.

　　Must …… kill him!

Humans were such disgusting creatures, if they had listened to the priest, they wouldn’t have been caught, not to mention ending up in this situation now.

Turned into a plaything of the human race ……

The elf was pulled hard into the cage, covered with a white cloth and pushed backstage.

The last one to come out was a scroll from the great human spirit: Mr. Norman Ackerman’s teleportation scroll, a one-time scroll with a teleportation distance of 10,000 meters.

The starting price was one million.

Hearing the price, Qiao Nan was surprised.

His student’s scrolls could be sold for a million, and with Norman’s talent, one-time scrolls might as well be his casual practice, a practice defective product could be so expensive.

Qiao Nan couldn’t help but want to sell the pile of scrolls that took up extra space in his space for money.

He Nan shook his head, threw the identity plate in his hand, stood up and went backstage to pay.

As Qiao Nan left, Edelman called people to follow, just now Edelman’s butler called a dozen of the family’s hired adventurers over to block him.

What a joke, how could the face of the Horace family be trampled on at will, since he dared to challenge their authority in front of so many people, he had to be prepared to pay the price!

　　Edelman grunted coldly, he didn’t care about the scroll, he also stood up and followed Qiao Nan out with the butler.

There were quite a few people who saw it, but none of them stopped him.

In their view, the young man who had angered the Horace family was sure to be retaliated against and wouldn’t be useful.

They could only hope that the young man wasn’t too weak or he would suffer.

Qiao Nan once again went backstage, the cage containing the elf was pushed back again, only this time the noises from the cage was much louder.

He glanced at it and returned the money he had just gotten from the waiter there, and added a lot more.

“It’s approved, please tell me where you live? Do you need us to send him over?” The manager came over and tried assisting him, he saw the money bag Qiao Nan pulled out and saw a not very conspicuous golden pattern in the place where the tether was.

The golden bellflower pattern was extremely familiar, the manager felt that he had seen it somewhere ……

Where was it?

“No, can you give me the cage?”

　　”Of course, it’s just a cage.” The manager hurriedly responded, “Do you need us to pack it for you?”

　　”No need.”

Qiao Nan walked up and lifted the red cloth to look inside, the elf’s mouth was gagged and his hands and feet were tied behind him, he could only try to kill Qiao Nan with his eyes.

“Be good.” Qiao Nan said soothingly, “It will be fine in a moment.”

The response to Qiao Nan was a more intense struggle.

Qiao Nan put the cage into a storage bag that could hold living things, and only then did he walk out of the doors of the auction house amidst the shock of the auction employees.

“Just now …… that was the space storage bag that can hold living things?” The manager was silent for a long time and finally asked dryly.

Other employees nodded, allowing the manager confirm that he was indeed not mistaken.

That was a storage bag that could hold living things!

　　A storage bag that could hold dead things was already hard to find, let alone one that could hold living things, it was simply priceless, not to mention the Horace family, no one in the entire Bangal City had a storage bag that could hold living things!

This person might not be from Bangal City at all, but a nobleman from the imperial capital, or another domain, or a powerful magician.

The manager racked his brain and finally remembered where he had seen that golden bellflower pattern before!

It was the mark on the clothes of Lord Norman!

Could that person be Lord Norman?!

No, Lord Norman should be in the City Master’s house now, and he wouldn’t come here because he didn’t think it was clean enough, and would never leave the mansion unless necessary.

Then where did he get the money bag from?

Or did he belong to the same family as the city lord?

“Go and get the guards to protect that gentleman!” The manager reacted and told them to hurriedly find the guards provided by the auction, “To show him the attitude of our auction house, what if the noble guest is injured and doesn’t come to our auction in the future?”

The manager thought of the two weapons he brought to sell.

Although it was purple, with such high-quality properties that could be treated as family heirlooms, he casually took them out to sell, how could ……

The manager shook his head anxiously in his heart.

Whether it was true or not, the manager didn’t dare bet.

The city lord had just come to Bangal City not long ago, he hadn’t yet established his network, if he could rely on him, with the city lord on the line ……

　　The manager’s eyes shone brightly and he hurriedly urged the security guards.

　　Qiao Nan had just left the gate when he saw a familiar figure.

He was delayed a bit inside the auction, and when he came out, it was already dark outside, and there were streetlights on the street, but there wasn’t much of a crowd.

Most people had gone home to sleep, or went to the tavern to get drunk, few people would skulk around by this time.

Qiao Nan looked around to make sure there was no one else, and then laughed: “That’s all you brought?”

“These people are enough!”

　　Edelman stroked his beard, “I’m in a good mood, if you kneel down and beg for forgiveness I can still forgive you, otherwise ……”

“Kneel down? What are you?” Qiao Nan didn’t hold back his laughter: “I haven’t been in a good mood lately, you’re making me very happy.”

　　”You!” Edelman didn’t expect Qiao Nan’s stubborness, he became a little cautious.

　　Whether he was a noble or not, this matter couldn’t be resolved gently, it wasn’t only his face, but the face of the entire nobility of Bangal City.

Qiao Nan slowly walked down the steps and looked around at the swordsmen who had surrounded him in the center.

Five were more than level forty, the rest were only level thirty, placed outside it was considered good, but placed here, it seemed a bit ridiculous.

　”What will you do?” Qiao Nan walked up to Edelman, three steps apart.

　　Qiao Nan was one meter eight tall, while Edelman was short, plus after all these years of pampering, he had a big belly, as he stood over him, he felt intimidated.

　　Edelman found himself short of breath and took a few steps back to open up the distance between them, so that he wouldn’t be so vulnerable: “I’ll give you one last chance, if you refuse to admit defeat, I’m going to do it.”

As Edelman spoke, his men directly surrounded Qiao Nan, although Qiao Nan was tall, he was slim, surrounded by brawny men, he unsurprisingly looked a little weak.

　　Drenched with sweat, the manager rushed down: “Wait a minute!”

The auction house’s security moved to protect Qiao Nan, as he walked between the two as a peacemaker: “Mr. Horace, calm down, we’re in public, what can’t be said properly?”

The manager was now very bitter.

These two people couldn’t be offended, in the absence of the identity of this mysterious buyer, it was best to dispel the tension.

“Kela, you’re just in time, you should have seen the money bag that this gentleman took out when he paid.” Edelman didn’t feel embarrassed when he saw Kela, “You saw his money bag, don’t you think it looks familiar?”

Kela’s expression remained unchanged: “What are you talking about?”

　　”The money bag on him is exactly the same as the City Lord’s!” Edelman pointed at Qiao Nan, “He’s just a poor boy who stole the city lord’s money bag!”

“Hmm? Who stole my money bag?” A faint question made the noisy scene instantly silent, and the white figure that came from afar gently walked over to Qiao Nan’s side.
