YM778.TV Chapter 52: Chapter 52 - Your Highness... are you still alive?
In recent days, the activity has gradually increased, and the streets of the city are becoming more and more lively. This is due to the auction that the Yan Chamber of Commerce is about to hold.
"Have you heard? The Yan Chamber of Commerce is really going to open a branch here in Beiyang City."
"Yes, I heard. Due to the upcoming auction they will hold, even forces from other provinces have come to participate."
"Isn\'t that an exaggeration? It\'s just a chamber of commerce. Why would it alarm so many people?"
"Shh, don\'t say it was me who told you, but I heard that the Yan Chamber of Commerce is going to auction a sacred technique at the opening!"
"Silvo, are you sure?"
Even ordinary people are talking about the upcoming auction that will be held in Beiyang City, and all the conversations are about just one thing...
Yan Chamber of Commerce!
The reason for such a stir is not just because of the opening of the Yan Chamber of Commerce, but because they intend to auction a sacred technique!
This is the first time a sacred technique will be auctioned in Beiyang City.
After all, in a city where only the provincial governor possesses the cultivation of a Saint, auctioning a sacred technique that can allow a cultivator to reach the Saint realm is extremely attractive.
As for doubting that this might be a lie from the Chamber of Commerce, no one has any doubts. After all, this auction house is a branch of the Yan family\'s Chamber of Commerce.
This is an auction house with businesses spread across the five dynasties, and it is practically impossible to spread false information and tarnish its reputation.
"What is that? A powerful aura quickly coming our way?"
"Run, that\'s the aura of a sacred beast!"
"Why the hell is a sacred beast coming our way? Is it going to attack the city?"
"Don\'t worry, the governor is a powerful Saint. As long as he\'s here, even if it\'s a sacred beast, there won\'t be a problem."
Suddenly, a terrifying aura began approaching from the sky, heading towards the city. This scared all the cultivators who felt this aura and caused panic in the city!
On the city wall, the soldiers also panicked upon feeling the terrifying aura of a sacred beast, especially when they saw a huge eagle coming at full speed towards the city.
"Don\'t panic! Activate the formation!"
When the guard commander roared at the soldiers who were paralyzed with fear, they finally reacted and ran in all directions to activate the city\'s defense formation.
Although the commander seemed majestic at this moment, he still felt a twinge of fear, especially when he saw the beast approaching. It was a real sacred beast!
Even with the city\'s formation activated, he knew that the formation couldn\'t hold out for long against continuous attacks from a sacred beast.
Thinking about this, he could only look towards the governor\'s mansion in the center of the city and hope in his heart that the governor could handle the beast!
Inside the governor\'s mansion, Nangong Ye clearly sensed the aura approaching the city and couldn\'t help but show a solemn expression after probing it with his divine sense.
He was only a 1-Star Saint, and the aura of the approaching eagle made his heart race.
But he had no options; he had to fight. After all, he was the governor and responsible for the lives of all the people in the city.
Moreover, if he fled without a fight, he would be considered a traitor to the Zhenfang Dynasty and hunted down by everyone.
After showing a determined expression, he ordered his subordinate, "Send a request for help to General Yu. Tell him that Beiyang City is being attacked by a sacred beast!"
After giving the order, he disappeared from the spot and appeared in the sky above the city, immediately drawing the attention of the panicked residents.
"Look, it\'s the governor!"
"Yes, the governor is going to act. We don\'t need to worry anymore."
"Are you sure? The aura exuded by that beast is still stronger than the governor\'s."
"We have to hope that the governor can hold off the beast\'s attacks until reinforcements arrive. Otherwise, we\'re all dead."
Unlike the people\'s excitement at seeing him, Nangong Ye wore a grim expression. Now that the beast was closer, he finally discovered it was a Wind Shadow Eagle!
Although the Wind Shadow Eagle also possessed the cultivation of a 1-Star Saint when fully grown, it mastered the Sacred Law of Wind exceptionally well.
Additionally, a beast\'s physical body was significantly superior to that of a human at the same level.
The most impressive thing was its speed, which even a 4-Star Saint would envy. Nangong Ye wasn\'t sure if he could hold out until General Yu arrived with reinforcements!
As he pondered this, the giant body of the eagle, with wings spanning several meters wide, appeared before him.
Looking at the beautiful wings that created countless magnificent and stunning wind shadows with each beat, Nangong Ye didn\'t seem inclined to admire them. He was about to charge forward to confront the beast when, suddenly, the eagle stopped.
Yes, the eagle stopped in front of the city\'s formation and didn\'t advance a single inch, merely hovering in the air.
Confused, Nangong Ye suddenly realized that there were two figures atop the eagle. Earlier, he had been so focused on the beast\'s attack that he hadn\'t noticed these figures.
Now that he saw them, he realized that the eagle was actually a mount for these two people!
Thinking about this, Nangong Ye became curious about the identity of someone who could use a sacred beast as a mount and looked towards the figures.
They were a man and a woman, with the woman standing respectfully behind the man, as if she were a servant.
But when his gaze fell upon the man, it made his scalp tingle before he finally exclaimed:
"Your Highness... you\'re still alive?"
