Chapter 120 - 111: The Young Girl Alchemy Prodigy (3rd Update)
"Is it starting in three days?"
Ye Chen held a letter between his index and middle fingers, which then ignited into golden flames, burning to ashes.
He had been looking forward to this auction for quite a long time. The auction included the primary ingredient for making the Refining God Pill, and it was rumored that the final auction item would be a Divine-level Secret Treasure.
Although he did not know whether the rumor was true, it was enough to fill everyone with anticipation.
Since the auction was about to take place, Ye Chen, contemplating his options, chose not to attempt a breakthrough. He planned to do so after the auction event, as he had a feeling that this breakthrough would not simply take a few days, but could extend for a considerable period.
After the chaos with the Demon Beasts ended, that very night, Elder Duanmu from Xiafeng Academy led Ye Chen and a group of elite students back to the Academy.
As for the Kingdom Ancestor, he had left at the earliest opportunity, as the Royal Capital could not afford to lose the protection of a Heavenly God, lest opportunists cause trouble.
Meanwhile, the Mansion Master continued to stay on the battlefield. Although the Hongtian Great Saint had declared an end to the chaos, the Mansion Master chose to stay on guard – better safe than sorry.
That night, the group returned to the Royal Capital.
Despite the rumors that the entire Wind Country might fall, many citizens in the Royal Capital firmly believed in its unwavering immortality. Even if other towns were conquered, this city, standing on this land for over a thousand years, would not fall.
Thus, the people in the capital were not greatly panicked by the chaos caused by the Demon Beasts; life in the city continued as usual, bustling and lively.
