Chapter 164 The Circus Master's Demise

Apart from the exclamations of Fang Yue and Ni Dongmei, everyone else in the venue was completely silent.

All of them stared blankly at the Clown Master, now a corpse on the ground, and at the tail, who seemed to disdain everything and disregarded everyone. They were all dumbfounded.

The tail… was actually Qibajiu, the Supreme Grandmaster of the Extreme Ice Sect?

And she had instantly killed the Clown Master, one of the Four Great Masters of the Juan Bird Tower?

What, what, what is going on?

A feeling of panic spread like a plague.

"He's, he's dead! The Clown Master is dead! Help! Help! There's a crazy person here!"

"How dare the Extreme Ice Sect kill the Clown Master!"

"The Extreme Ice Sect is finished, absolutely finished! With the death of the Clown Master, the Fourth Prince's faction behind him will never let the Extreme Ice Sect go!"

When people came back to their senses, the crowd stood up and ran screaming towards the exit.

But then Grandmaster Qibajiu waved her hand, and a thick layer of ice immediately condensed at the entrance and exit of the auction hall, blocking the way out.

"I didn't say you could leave."

The girl on the stage spoke in a lazy voice, but it sent a chill down everyone's spine.

They all attacked the ice wall blocking the door, but couldn't even leave a mark.

The Sixth Elder of the Raging Fire Sect was only on par with Ni Dongmei in terms of strength, but compared to Grandmaster Qibajiu, there was a world of difference.

As for the other people who died tragically, they were either local leaders who secretly funded the Raging Fire Sect or members of forces who openly supported them.

Grandmaster Qibajiu didn't harm the innocent; it seemed her target was only those people.

"Grandmaster Qibajiu, why did you do such a dangerous thing without discussing it with us! Do you know how worried the sect master and elders have been about you these past few days!"

"Grandmaster Qibajiu, what exactly is going on?"

Fang Yue, now having brought Ni Dongmei to Grandmaster Qibajiu's side, asked the question.

Everything had happened too fast, and he was still bewildered.

After reassuring Ni Dongmei, Grandmaster Qibajiu said to Fang Yue, "It's nothing. I made a 'deal' with a friend. She helped me enter the Black Bird Auction and gather some of the Extreme Ice Sect's enemies together, making it easier for me to take action. And in return, I need to deal with someone for her."

"Who?"

"The guy already lying on the ground."

Fang Yue was stunned. Following the direction Grandmaster Qibajiu pointed, he realized that the person she wanted to eliminate was the Clown Master, one of the Four Great Masters!

In other words, the mission was complete!

Then next should be…

"Prepare to retreat. The Rain-level cultivator responsible for the security of Juan Bird Tower today has probably received the news and is already on his way."

After a pause, Grandmaster Qibajiu looked at Fang Yue.

"Ye Se Liming, it's really unfortunate that you appeared at this time.

Tail doesn't want to contact you, nor does she want to involve you.

Because the struggle between the Extreme Ice Sect and the Raging Fire Sect has reached a fever pitch, and every move will bring huge trouble. Like now, I and the Extreme Ice Sect have become thorns in the side of the Four Princes and will also be included in the Juan Bird Tower's list of targets for elimination.

And you, originally didn't need to be involved in such big trouble."

Fang Yue smiled. He already had a lot of trouble, so one more burden wouldn't make much difference.

But now there was a question that Fang Yue was very concerned about.

That was, since the Black Bird Auction didn't auction Qing Chen and Tian Ruichi, then where exactly were they now?

Fang Yue sighed in his heart. Now was not the time to think about these things. He jumped into the crowd and grabbed Ming, who was hiding in a corner, hugging his head and squatting defensively.

"Take Jing Yan to the Seventh Prince's mansion, and I'll let you leave here first."

"Deal!"

With only a moment's thought, Ming agreed to the deal without hesitation.

Fang Yue went to the backstage to bring out the unconscious Jing Yan and handed him over to Ming. Then, he had Grandmaster Qibajiu melt the ice wall, letting the two of them out.

After doing all this, Fang Yue turned back to look at Grandmaster Qibajiu.

"Grandmaster Qibajiu, why go to this extent? With your strength, wiping out the Raging Fire Sect shouldn't be difficult, right? Why bother to gather the enemies together in such a troublesome way, even at the risk of endangering yourself?"

"It's simple. Because Tail is still too weak to support my appearance for a long time, let alone use my power at will. She can only burst out for a short period of time. Like now, Tail is already reaching her limit."

As she spoke, Grandmaster Qibajiu casually raised her hand towards the roof. Ice thorns rose from the ground, directly piercing through the roof and even shattering something that seemed like a protective formation. Semi-transparent fragments shattered in mid-air and scattered all over the ground.
