As soon as the black-clothed man left, an endless uproar erupted among the crowd. A peak Human Venerable expert had just died before everyone's eyes; how could that not be a shocking experience?
"This God Yi Tribe is really foolish, daring to cause trouble in the black market."
"The black market is extremely mysterious. Even the top Demon Tribe and Human Tribe experts dare not act recklessly here. Although the God Yi Tribe is strong, they should understand their own weight."
"Perhaps this God Yi Tribe person is coming to the black market for the first time and doesn't understand the rules of the black market. Haha, if that God Yi Tribe person truly gets angry and sends experts to the black market to seek justice, then it will be lively."
"The God Yi Tribe wouldn't be that foolish, right? This brat is an idiot; could it be that the upper echelons of the God Yi Tribe are also idiots? Back then, when a Heaven Venerable of the Black Prison Demon Tribe caused trouble in the black market, weren't they also wiped out? In the end, the Demon Tribe didn't say anything, so what is the God Yi Tribe worth?"
"Hmph, some say that behind the black market stands the bigwigs of the Human Tribe and Demon Tribe. Otherwise, how could both the merits of the Demon Tribe alliance and the Human Tribe alliance be used normally in the black market?"
Various discussions filled the air, and the crowd began to disperse.
The stall owner clearly didn't expect that the burly man from before would actually be from the God Yi Tribe, nor did he expect that after the black market enforcer said to let it go, he would still kill the expert from the God Yi Tribe.
Although his sense of justice had been reclaimed, he no longer dared to continue selling here. He hurriedly packed up his things and left in a rush.
"Black market enforcer?"
Qin Chen murmured, his expression serious. The moment the black-clothed enforcer unleashed the black flame, Qin Chen faintly felt that the entire black market had subtly shifted.
"The rules of the black market?"
Qin Chen scanned his surroundings. If he wasn't mistaken, there must be a top-tier formation within the black market. The fall of the God Yi Tribe expert before was due to the special powers within this formation that directly strangled him.
Otherwise, for a peak Human Venerable expert, even a Earth Venerable powerhouse, it wouldn't be possible for them to be burned to death without even having the ability to resist.
"Moreover, this person was able to discern who was lying, which must have been done using that black crystal ball, relying on the grand formation of the entire black market to make that judgment."
Qin Chen took a deep breath.
How powerful could this black market's formation be?
A Earth Venerable formation? Or perhaps a Heaven Venerable formation?
If it were true that even the Heaven Venerable of the Demon Tribe fell in the black market back then, then the rule formation in the black market definitely wouldn't be lower than a Heaven Venerable formation.
However, in the dark universe, there isn't just one of these black markets; no one knows how many black markets there are.
If each black market has a Heaven Venerable formation, then how terrifying would this black market be?
At this moment, Qin Chen truly understood the horror and power of the black market.
"My Lord, outside the black market is fine, but within the black market, one must abide by the rules. This is also why many people are willing to trade in the black market. No matter how great your background is, you cannot cause trouble here. Even Heaven Venerables from the Human and Demon Tribes must not take advantage of their status."
The old gnome chuckled. He had survived in this black market for over a hundred thousand years and had developed a sense of belonging. Seeing this scene made him feel proud from deep within.
Qin Chen smiled but offered no further comment.
Indeed, the black market is quite fair, but is it truly absolutely fair?
Qin Chen did not believe there is absolute fairness in this world. The so-called fairness is merely a lack of strength; indeed, even Heaven Venerables from the Demon and Human Tribes cannot be arrogant in the black market, but what about the Supremes?
