Chapter 127 Just put it all on my head.
Under Xiao Yan's gaze, the young man named Lei Le didn't dare to move an inch.
Even though the other person was just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, why was he so afraid of him?
However, after the old man's voice came, the young man's expression immediately improved, and his previous panic turned back into arrogance.
"Grandpa, you've arrived. Look at this woman. She's just an acting supervisory elder, yet she dares to bring people in here so casually."
The grandson tried to reason with her, but she launched into a tirade. "Grandpa, you have to stand up for me!"
Lele was the kind of person who spoke to people in a way that suited them, and in front of Leo, he suddenly became pitiful. If he could, he might even try to squeeze out a few tears.
"Don't worry, my precious grandson. I can't speak for other places, but no one dares to touch you here at the Mittel Auction House."
The old man who spoke was followed by several people, each of whom was a Grand Master of Battle, while he himself was a Spirit Master.
Hearing his promise, Reiler's face once again became smug.
"Colluding with outsiders to threaten the Mittel family's deacon—according to the rules, your position as the current Inspector Elder might be in jeopardy."
At least the elders' fates are decided through discussions in the Senate. With her grandfather's dissenting vote, it's unlikely that Ya Fei will be removed from office, but it will be extremely difficult for her to become a full member of the council.
"ah!!!"
However, right after he finished speaking, a scream suddenly erupted not far away, and the young man named Leiler was instantly engulfed in blood-red flames.
In a short time, Reller was reduced to ashes in full view of everyone.
The sudden turn of events shocked everyone present. Even the battle masters around Leiler hadn't had time to react before Leiler turned to ashes.
"Alright, I've taken care of a problem for you. Consider it a favor you owe me."
Xiao Yan remained calm, not even lifting his eyelids to glance at them, showing that he hadn't taken Lei Le and Leo seriously from beginning to end.
In fact, whether Lei Le lives or dies is irrelevant to Xiao Yan, but it is clear that his existence poses a great threat to Ya Fei.
He could indeed see a deeply hidden killing intent in the woman's eyes.
Since that's the case, he might as well go with the flow and help her solve this problem. As for the consequences, Xiao Yan wasn't afraid at all.
The Mittel family is indeed very powerful, but they are not yet at the level to dare to challenge a Dou Huang. Although Xiao Yan is only a one-star Dou Wang, even the six-star Dou Huang Eight-Winged Black Serpent King is no match for him. Dou Huangs below five stars will only be defeated even faster than that serpent.
"What—what did you do?!"
Seeing his grandson turn to ashes in the blink of an eye, Leo was utterly shocked, then stared at Xiao Yan with an expression of both grief and anger.
This was his most beloved grandson, whom he had never allowed anyone to hit, yet today, he had turned to ashes right before his eyes, a devastating blow to him.
After hearing Xiao Yan's undisguised words, a surge of hatred welled up in her heart.
"Obviously, it's about burning a piece of trash for the world."
Xiao Yan spoke calmly, not hiding what he had done. This method of burning with strange fire from a distance was simply using soul power to condense strange fire within a certain range. Dealing with such a Dou Shi was not difficult at all.
"I don't care who you are, you must die today!"
Leo roared and summoned a spear of battle aura. As one of the elders of the Mittel family, his strength had been at the Battle Spirit level for many years.
While he might not be able to get to know all the prominent figures in the Gama Empire, he had at least met them several times.
The Xiao Yan before him was not one of the top ten experts, and given Xiao Yan's young age, he didn't think the other party's cultivation level was that high.
That move just now must have involved some strange method.
"Be careful! That old guy is a four-star Dou Ling and wields a high-level Xuan-rank Dou Technique. Don't engage him head-on!"
Seeing Leo charging towards Xiao Yan with a spear in hand, Ya Fei shouted a warning to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan has eliminated a major hidden danger for me this time. If I don't stand up and express my stance now, I will only make the other party feel disheartened.
"Too late, kid, die!"
[Advanced Profound Rank - Golden Light Piercing Thrust]!
He harbored extreme hatred for Xiao Yan, and immediately unleashed his strongest killing move, a high-level Xuan-rank metal-attribute combat skill. Combined with his four-star Dou Ling strength, even a six-star Dou Ling would not be able to withstand it.
However, an unbelievable scene unfolded: Xiao Yan simply extended two fingers and easily caught the golden Dou Qi spear that was thrusting towards him.
"Should I kill this old guy too? If that good-for-nothing dies, he'll definitely try to target you in the future."
Xiao Yan glanced at Ya Fei not far away. At this moment, the life of this arrogant auction house elder was only a matter of a word from Ya Fei.
"No way! Lele is just an auction house steward, it doesn't matter whether he's there or not, but Leo is one of the executive elders, and no one except the Grand Elder has the right to dismiss him."
"If you kill him here, it will be declaring war on the Mittel family, and even I could be pushed to the opposite side."
Yafei knew that Leo would inevitably seek revenge, but as a member of the Mittel family, such internal strife was absolutely forbidden within the family.
Even if we want to kill this guy, we have to first have the Grand Elder dismiss Leo from his post and remove him from the Mittel family.
However, if he were eliminated, Ya Fei would have countless ways to deal with him, so there would be no need to kill him directly.
"Hmph, the old man is lucky to have escaped with his life."
Xiao Yan snorted coldly, and the golden Dou Qi spear instantly shattered into pieces. A powerful force sent Leo flying, crashing into the floor of the auction house's front hall.
"Let's go, the Heavenly Rank Auction is about to begin, we don't have time to waste here."
If it weren't for attending this auction, I would have left long ago, and these two unlucky guys wouldn't have run into me.
"Little brother Xiao Yan, you should leave here and lay low for a while. You killed Lei Le and injured Leo. The Mittel family's enforcement team will be coming for you soon. Even if you are a Dou Wang, it will be difficult for you to escape unscathed!"
Seeing Xiao Yan remain so calm, Ya Fei became nervous instead. As a member of the Mittel family, she was well aware of the enforcement team's strength.
That was a team led by twenty Dou Ling of five stars or above and one enforcement elder at the peak of Dou Ling. The enforcement elder was known as the strongest person below Dou Wang in the entire capital.
"It's alright. If anyone causes you trouble, you can blame it on me. I'll reason with them."
Xiao Yan did not believe that the status of a mere executive elder could compare to the attitude of a Dou Huang-level expert.
Seeing Xiao Yan so calm, Ya Fei realized that she could see through him less and less. What had happened to this young man in the past three years that made him so powerful?
"Alright, if that's the case, then I'll do as you say, but you can have this first."
Ya Fei quietly popped a scroll out of her storage ring and handed it to Xiao Yan. It was a defense map of the Mittel Auction House, which was the last thing she could do for Xiao Yan.
