Dean Long Kui coming to Purple Origin Star this time, is it to regain some face for your Great Dragon Empire and kill me to vent your anger?"

Yang Xiao smiled, looking at Long Kui.

Everyone in the trading hall was shocked when they heard Yang Xiao's words, staring blankly at Yang Xiao, then looking at Long Kui.

Some even felt a chill down their spine, their bodies trembling slightly.

Was Long Kui here to kill Yang Xiao?

Long Kui was also taken aback. He hadn't expected Yang Xiao to directly expose his intentions, which was quite surprising.

However, Long Kui, being a supreme powerhouse at the Emperor Level Realm, had complete confidence in his control over the situation. Even if Yang Xiao knew in advance that he was coming to kill him, what difference did it make? Wouldn't he still be killed?

"Heh, did Long Jing tell you?"

"How could Long Jing tell me that? You underestimate Long Jing too much."

"Fine, I won't argue with you, even if you know in advance, so what? I'd like to see what ability you have to stop me from killing you?"

As Long Kui spoke, a strong oppressive force emanated from him, causing the people around to move away.

Yang Xiao smiled, waving his hand:

"Dean Long, calm down, calm down. We can settle this matter of you wanting to kill me later. This place isn't big enough. We can go to the square outside later to avoid harming the innocent. Use your skills to kill me, and I'll be genuinely convinced,

but before that, let me complete the current crystal stone transaction event, okay?"

Seeing Yang Xiao's calm demeanor, Long Kui was somewhat taken aback. After a moment's hesitation, he said:

"Alright, today I, Long Kui, truly want to see how you justify your arrogance. Even if your Guangfu City is a dragon's pool and tiger's den, I shall brave it."

"Sure, no problem."

Yang Xiao smiled faintly, speaking to the others in the hall:

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's first complete the crystal stone allocation and auction transaction. Wind Eagle Elder, please preside."

Wind Eagle Elder, who had been watching Long Kui with high alert, immediately responded to Yang Xiao's words:

"Alright, as per the new allocation plan, the Great Dragon Empire, Flying Leopard Empire, and Youming Empire each get 20% distribution. This month's total production of Purple Crystal Stone is..."

Wind Eagle Elder introduced the total amount of crystal stones, distribution, auction amount, and more.

According to the allocation process, each empire sent staff to count the number of crystal stones, which were then handed over to dedicated personnel for management.

The subsequent crystal stone auction went smoothly as well.

In about an hour, the crystal stone transaction event was completed.

Yang Xiao sat on the main stage, calm, leisurely sipping tea, occasionally addressing issues arising during the auction process.

In the audience, apart from those involved in the crystal stone transaction, everyone else's hearts were worried about one question at this moment:

What will be the outcome when Yang Xiao and Long Kui fight shortly?

Can Yang Xiao possibly be a match for Long Kui? 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

If Yang Xiao gets killed, what changes will occur in the future regarding the mining and trade of crystal stones on Purple Origin Star?

...

Wind Eagle Elder stood on the main stage, loudly announcing:

"Alright, the crystal stone transaction event has concluded satisfactorily."

No applause followed, and the whole venue fell silent, with everyone turning their eyes to Yang Xiao, anticipating the events about to unfold.

Yang Xiao smiled slightly and said to Long Kui:

"Dean Long, since the Emperor of Great Dragon hates me so much and sent you personally to kill me for revenge, shall we go to Guangfu City's square for a life-and-death duel?"

"Haha.... Alright, Yang Xiao, I respect your guts, I'll grant you a swift end and spare you from torture."

"Heh, who will end up torturing who is unsure. All this talk is pointless, let's head to the outside square first."

Yang Xiao strode toward the hall's exit, with Long Kui following closely behind, and others tagging along.

At Guangfu City square, thousands of people had already gathered to watch.

Walking beside Yang Xiao, Long Kui said:

"Yang Xiao, it seems you've been ready for this, even preparing an audience?"

"Are you getting scared?"

"Me, scared? Haha, Yang Xiao, that's the funniest joke I've ever heard. Scared? Hmph, who on earth can frighten me, Long Kui?"

Yang Xiao and Long Kui walked to the center of the square. Yang Xiao said to Long Kui:

"The Emperor of Great Dragon sent you to hunt me down to showcase your Great Dragon Empire's might. Would you like to say a few words to the audience here?"

Long Kui glanced at Yang Xiao and then, facing the thousands of onlookers, loudly proclaimed:

"An honest person doesn't act in secret. I, Long Kui, am the dean of Heavenly Dragon Academy of the Great Dragon Empire. Because of Yang Xiao's provocation which harmed our Great Dragon Empire's dignity, the Great Dragon Empire has sent me to Purple Origin Star to hunt Yang Xiao,

Hmph, can my Great Dragon Empire, the strongest on Witch Star, be casually provoked by you?

Here's a word of advice, note it well,

Those who offend my Great Dragon Empire will be executed no matter how far the distance!"

Yang Xiao was stunned, looking at the impassioned Long Kui, thinking that perhaps this birdbrain had read the history books of Xuanming Country from Earth, recognizing that phrase "Those who offend mighty Han, though far, will be executed?"

"Haha, so you're claiming that those who offend from afar must be executed, but you've come from the distant Witch Star to Purple Origin Star, looting our crystal stone mines and killing millions of wild men and countless demon beasts, how shall we settle this account?"

A resonant voice sounded, and an old man with a white beard stepped out from the crowd.

Thousands of Guangfu Clan members in the square immediately shouted:

"Great Chief!"

This old man was indeed the King of the Wild Men.

The King of the Wild Men held a longsword in his hand, emitting a fierce killing aura; this was Yang Xiao's Broken Rainbow Sword.

Originally, Yang Xiao had four two-star Divine Weapons. He gave the Dragon Slayer Sword acquired from Flying Leopard Academy to Xiao Ling.

Upon returning to Witch Star, Yang Xiao gifted the Broken Rainbow Sword to the King of the Wild Men.

Decades ago, the King of the Wild Men had fought against the War God of the Great Dragon Empire, and he ultimately lost due to having inferior weapons,

This time, upon receiving the Broken Rainbow Sword from Yang Xiao, he was so thrilled he couldn't sleep well for days, and even clamored for a chance to fight the War God of the Great Dragon Empire again.

If it weren't for the great distance between Purple Origin Star and Witch Star, Yang Xiao suspected the King of the Wild Men might have made a nocturnal dash to challenge the War God.

Long Kui, seeing the King of the Wild Men and feeling the powerful killing aura emanating from him, frowned,

"Who are you?"

"Haha, you dare come to Purple Origin Star to assassinate our Great Chief without knowing who I am? You're truly arrogant!

To be perfectly honest, I am the King of the Wild Men!"

"King of the Wild Men?"

Long Kui was shocked. Although it was his first time on Purple Origin Star, he had heard about the War God's past conquests on Purple Origin Star and the battles with the King of the Wild Men.

The War God once personally told Long Kui that if it weren't for the advantage of having a Divine Weapon in hand and the augmentation of Magic Armor Jewelry, he might not have been a match for the King of the Wild Men.

However, Long Kui also knew that the King of the Wild Men had never broken through to the Emperor Level Realm, so he felt no fear within.

"Ah, so you're the King of the Wild Men. Yang Xiao, do you think bringing out the King of the Wild Men will make me, Long Kui, feel fear?"

Long Kui arrogantly swept his gaze across the crowd, sneering:

"Yang Xiao, if you have more helpers, call them out. These thousands of guards around could join the fight; it would save me the trouble of dealing with each one later!"

Long Kui was full of heroic spirit, utterly fearless. As a supreme powerhouse at the Emperor Level Realm, could he really have a falsely earned reputation?
