Watching the two boxes of items fall into the sea, Hong Zhong was speechless for a long time, but he couldn’t do anything about it. He was still resisting the Song of the Sea demon with all his strength and couldn’t be distracted at all. If he rashly let the flying spirit beast lower its altitude in order to catch up with the two boxes of items, it would be simply courting death. Don’t forget that there were still fatal water swordfish below.

Lin Yi could put two boxes of goods into the Jade space in an instant, but it was his biggest secret, and he didn’t want to reveal it yet. He didn’t plan to tell Hong Zhong about the Jade yet.

After a while, the storm finally passed. The water swordfish gave up on their pursuit, and the sea demons that had appeared out of nowhere finally disappeared. The sudden crisis had finally come to an end.

Looking at the empty scene behind them, Hong Zhong and Lin Yi didn’t look happy at all. They were silent.

They hadn’t even seen the shadow of the northernmost Island, but the two deputies and the two boxes of auction items were all gone. They had died before they could even start. This trip had not even begun, but they had already met with a dejected face.

After a long time, Hong Zhong regained his calm expression and said in a deep voice,””Young hero Lin, I’m really sorry for dragging you into this.”

“Manager Hong, what are you saying? I’m already indebted to you for following me here. How can you say that you’ve implicated me? accidents are inevitable. Manager Hong, you’re being too serious.” Lin Yi said.

Hong Zhong shook his head and said,”it’s not an accident. This incident was definitely planned by someone. I’m almost certain that it was manager Tong and his people who did it.”

“How do you know? They only left a step earlier. Our encounter might not necessarily be an accident, right?” Lin Yi guessed, but he still asked.

“Young hero Lin, you don’t know this, but the water swordfish and the sea demons are rare sea beasts. They don’t mix with each other, and their territories don’t have borders. Under normal circumstances, they won’t even meet once even if they make dozens of trips, let alone meet at the same time. There’s only one explanation for this situation-someone has deliberately lured them here with something.” Hong Zhong said with certainty.

It was a bumpy journey, and after four hours, Lin Yi and Hong Zhong finally reached the northernmost Island.

Along the way, Lin Yi had seen the dangers of the ocean. Even if they were following the theoretically safest route, they still encountered no less than three attacks in four hours. One was in the air, and two were from the sea.

With Lin Yi’s eyes, he could tell that all three attacks were fatal. At least, killing the flying spirit beast was not a problem. However, Hong Zhong managed to suppress the attacks in time and saved him.

Just as Hong Zhong had said, although the sea was very dangerous, as long as there was a reliable master on guard, it was enough to ensure safety.

Lin Yi couldn’t help but take a deep breath as he got off the beast. The northernmost Island wasn’t very big, but there was a magnificent palace in the middle of it. It was covered in colorful clouds, like a dream, like a paradise on earth.

“A Mirage?” Lin Yi raised an eyebrow. To be honest, he was quite surprised to see the legendary rainbow clouds here.

Hong Zhong chuckled and said,”this is the symbol of the northernmost Island. Because of the climate, this place is covered in clouds all year round. After it was developed into a money-squandering cave, it was man-made into seven-colored clouds. You can’t see such a rare sight in other places.”

Lin Yi nodded. At least from the outside, the name of the North’s money-squandering cave was well-deserved.

In addition to the resplendent Palace, the security of this northernmost Island was also extremely tight. There were three layers, all of them wearing black armor. Each of them was at least at the mid-stage of the foundation building realm. The rank of the captain and leader was even higher. Even the security of Shangguan LAN ‘er’s birthday banquet a while ago was slightly inferior compared to them.

“Let’s go,”he said. Hong Zhong called out and took the lead to walk towards the palace. Because he was an old acquaintance, the guards did not come over to check and directly let them pass.

However, Lin Yi, who was following behind Hong Zhong, could still feel the countless gazes on him. If he revealed even the slightest bit of strangeness, he would be immediately restrained by the guards. The pressure he gave off was no less than the law enforcement Hall.

After entering the palace, it could be said that it was a different world inside. There were pavilions and water pavilions, birds chirping and flowers blooming. It was completely different from the Grand layout displayed outside. However, this difference did not make people feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, they felt that the style and grade were higher than ordinary palaces.

Lin Yi paid a little attention and realized that these pavilions, other than their elegant and pleasing appearance, also had some profound formation hidden within. He couldn’t help but sigh-the designer of this Palace was a genius.

After following Hong Zhong and passing through several pavilions, they came to an open space surrounded by lake water. In the middle was a simple but Grand Pavilion. It was bustling with people and there were already dozens of people sitting there. Shopkeeper Hao, who they had just met, was among them.

“Is this the auction site?” Lin Yi asked. This was like a leisure trip, completely different from the solemn auction he knew.

“That’s right. The previous auctions have always been held in this Pavilion, and this time should be no exception. However, there weren’t so many people in the past, so why are they here?” Hong Zhong frowned, especially when he saw the identity of the people present. His brows furrowed even more.

“They?” Lin Yi followed Hong Zhong’s gaze and realized that these people were sitting together and talking, but they were also separated into a few circles.

The largest group had twenty to thirty people, including the people Lin Yi had met before. There were also a few smaller groups, but they were more than enough to compete with these people.

There were only five or six people in one of them, but each of them exuded an extremely fierce and dangerous aura, like a fierce beast that was choosing people to eat. Even if the people around them were experts, they still instinctively felt a chill.

“Hehe, even the spirit beast clan from the South Island has sent people here. This auction at the North Island is a little interesting.” The ghastly thing’s voice suddenly sounded in Lin Yi’s mind.

“It’s indeed a spirit beast in human form. No wonder it has such a dangerous aura.” Lin Yi nodded as he’d already guessed it.
