The Mirror World's auction house was enveloped in darkness, with only the sweeping dragon flames and the glow from the wolf's claws illuminating the surroundings.
However, just as the two massive creatures were at a standstill, the figure in the chair... awoke.
A young man with slicked-back hair, dressed in a tunic suit, yawned, moved his right hand away from supporting the side of his head, and slowly opened his eyes.
In the darkness, a faint golden light shimmered in his eyes, seemingly capable of capturing one's soul.
"So noisy..." Zhou Jiuya tilted his head slightly.
As the words fell, without any warning, a giant bronze tripod with a Nine Dragon Pattern appeared out of nowhere, striking the head of the Celestial Wolf. The tripod was so massive that it outmatched the enormous beast, at least twenty meters long, pinning it firmly to the auction house floor. No matter how it struggled or roared, it couldn't break free.
