Chapter 49 Conflicted and Complicated



The city has become more lively and bustling because of the Grande Auction House\'s new announcement. Far away, people came, whether it was using teleportation arrays or simply using air transportation.

People on flying swords, flying boats, flying chariots, etc. More representatives from prominent clans and renowned sects would also attend the auction.

Amidst the crowd, three white tiger demi-humans had just arrived at Sumore Forest City. Bai Yuchen brought his newly recovered grandfather and little brother because he had business here. Yet, he couldn\'t leave them in the sect due to some security reasons. 

"Big brother, the people in this forest city are so crowdy. It\'s very different from our sect. There are so many people and stalls here!" The tiger cub cheered. He was smol and could barely see his surrounding because of many passers-by, but he looked happy because it looked like a festival.

"Don\'t wander around, Bai Liang. Here, let me carry you on my shoulder." Bai Yuchen was worried that his little brother would get lost in the crowd. Thus, he carried the young tiger on his shoulders.

"Wow, is this a festival? Can I buy that? Those candied apples look delicious..." Bai Liang looked around with sparkling eyes. He then wiped his saliva when he found the nearest stall.

The old white tiger tapped his grandson on the shoulder with his wooden cane. "Don\'t cause trouble, little cub."

"Haha, it doesn\'t matter, grandfather. It\'s just candied apples." Bai Yuchen laughed lightly. He had just become a multi-millionaire. He could say goodbye to his miserable life.

This old, frail white tiger was his savior when he was crippled, dying, and thrown into the middle of the forest. He was still a human back then, but this old white tiger still chose to help him. 

Due to that kindness and sincerity, he already regarded this old white tiger as his grandfather, then the tiger cub Bai Liang.... his new family of three.

He even shared the same surname with them by chance. Only his new family knew he was actually a human. His white tiger disguise was flawless and indiscernible to the sect\'s elders.

After buying two candied apples, Bai Yuchen went to book a room at a nearby inn. However, every inn was fully booked.

"Sorry, young man. But, all rooms are booked." The receptionist couldn\'t help with anything.

"What? This is already the eighth inn. This is an inn on the outskirt, and everything is also fully booked?" Bai Yuchen couldn\'t believe his heaven-defying luck would hit rock bottom now.

"I can do nothing even if you complain, young man. This city became bustling because of the festival, and it got even busier because of the grand auction." The receptionist shrugged her shoulders.

"Cough, cough..." The old white tiger coughed.

"Grandfather, you must be tired. Please have a seat and drink some water first." Bai Yuchen led his grandfather and little brother to the nearest bench.

".." The receptionist felt somewhat sympathetic. No rooms left, but she could spare an empty warehouse space that she could convert into lodging if the other party was willing.

She proposed it to the white tiger boy, and he readily agreed without further ado.

It was tiring to look for accommodation space, and he probably would never get a similar deal anywhere. Not to mention, the room was pretty cheap!

Well, even though it was cheap, the newly converted room was decent enough for three people to live in for a few days.

"Grandfather Bai Chang, please have a rest. Bai Liang, please look after grandfather and don\'t wander anywhere before I return. The bustling city is dangerous." Bai Yuchen prepared to go out.

"Roger, big bro. Please be careful too." Bai Liang replied with a salute.

"There are many crouching tigers and hidden dragons. I can feel there are many unfathomable experts in this city. Go for your objectives, but don\'t cause trouble." Bai Chang flapped his wrinkled hand as he lay on the bed.

"Understood. If you need anything, please call the receptionist. Then, I\'m off." Bai Yuchen raised his hand in farewell, then left.

He went to buy some materials that he could only find in major cities. Yet, he accidentally overheard the rumors about the auction that would be held in two days, then the arrival of two legendary nine-tailed foxes.

Therefore, he picked several items to buy while approaching the chattering beast folks. He then decided to ask. "Excuse me, bro. May I know more about the legendary nine-tailed foxes you are talking about? That\'s not one, but two?"

"Oh, you must have just come like us. I don\'t know the details, but two legendary nine-tailed foxes are present in this city. One is as pure as snow white, and the other is as mysterious as the darkness of the night. Their appearance is rumored to be that of peerless beauty."

"Tch, I\'m afraid that a mess will occur soon. Not to mention the new items in the auction. This can\'t be an exclusive event anymore. Do you know, I saw several Emperor\'s chariots and super flying boats already entered this forest city."

"So, those Emperors and renowned families have also arrived in this city? Holy cow, no wonder the situation has become so tense."

"Do you think those new people came because of those Super-tier potions?"

"I\'m not completely sure of that. I suspect they came for the nine- tailed foxes. Don\'t underestimate the power of the horny and lecherous old monsters."

"Wow, that\'s so sick. Will other legendary creatures appear, then? It will become a disaster."

"Who knows, but the ancient secret realm is about to open. Geniuses below 6th Rank are allowed to participate as agreed upon by the three major realms."

The beastfolks were too engrossed in their conversation and accidentally revealed some information that should be pretty sensitive.n0veIfullb00k t0p update place. However, it was a cultivator specialty shop, and what they said was also a public secret now. So, no problem.

Bai Yuchen excused himself and immediately purchased his selected items. They were expensive, but he was still a multi- millionaire, thanks to his previous loot.

At that moment, his mind was going somewhere. The one that made a fair trade with him in that forest a few days ago was a nine-tailed fox with fur as dark as night.

He had thought they would meet again, but who would have thought she was being targeted by many parties now. Life wasn\'t easy, and she would be in danger.

Not to mention, an ancient secret realm was about to open. He should find out more information about it. However, his thoughts and conscience were conflicted and became complicated.

On the one hand, he wanted to warn that nine-tailed shadow fox and help her out, but on the other hand, he shouldn\'t get involved because it was none of his business.

He was only a 3rd Rank crook... He would only suffer and possibly die if he was involved in the clash between hegemony.

However, she left a good impression that he could never forget. She saved his life and his grandfather\'s life with that life-saving potion.

"Ugh, I might have gone crazy." Bai Yuchen ruffled his hair. He went out on a limb for his own peace of mind.

After all, it would be a significant loss if such a kind, fair, and beautiful big fox sister fell into the hands of those lecherous old monsters.

If there were anyone who had to suffer, then they should be selfish, greedy, and evil people.

The bright white sky typical of the Northern Realm gradually became the night sky full of stars. The festive lights illuminate the city to accompany the festival of the exclusive weeks.

Bai Yuchen went to several places to find the nine-tailed shadow fox, but he couldn\'t find her whereabouts or news. His luck couldn\'t help him either.

In the past few hours, he had collected enough information about the ancient secret realm that would open in 25 days on the border between the Human Realm and the Demon Realm. He would go there when the time came, but his current matter made him uneasy.

It was like the calm before the storm. So many experts gathered in one city as if they were going to do something big, but being oblivious to the actual situation irritated him.

He had better get his grandfather and little brother out of the city immediately so they wouldn\'t be caught in the mess.
