Upon hearing this, Hai Bodong dared not say anything more and pondered carefully. After a moment, he said,
"The Jia Ma royal family has a sixth-tier peak water-attribute magical beast called 'Youhai Jiao Beast,' whose strength is comparable to a nine-star Dou Huang. In its early years, it fought alongside Jia Xingtian in all directions, displaying great power and prestige. Jia Xingtian valued it highly and treated it like a brother.
However, in recent years, due to the accumulation of injuries from years of battles, its strength has greatly diminished, and it is no longer as powerful as before. Now, it is critically ill and on the verge of death. Jia Xingtian has sought elixirs everywhere to heal it, but to no avail. Jia Xingtian is deeply worried about this."
Hun Changqing nodded thoughtfully and said meaningfully,
"If I could heal that magical beast, the price would be to buy his two granddaughters for a few days. Would he agree?"
Upon hearing this, Hai Bodong broke out in a cold sweat.
"This… I don't know…"
Then he mentally complained again.
"You're really going for a pervert, old man. My poor junior is truly pitiful."
Hun Changqing nodded and said,
"Alright, after the auction, introduce me to someone. If it doesn't work out, it's fine. After all, it was just a spur-of-the-moment thing; business is more important."
Hun Changqing then focused his attention on the auction, which had just begun.
At this moment, Ya Fei stood on the stage, wearing a black brocade robe embroidered with cloud patterns, which perfectly outlined her alluring figure. Her beautiful hair was styled with a gorgeous hairpin, and her foxy eyes inadvertently flashed with captivating ripples.
The madness of the night had made her pretty face flushed and glowing, like a ripe peach. Every gesture exuded unparalleled charm and allure, breathtakingly beautiful.
The audience below was captivated by Ya Fei's every smile and gesture, their hearts burning with passion. Everyone was going crazy, bringing the atmosphere of the entire auction to its peak.
Some astute observers immediately noticed Ya Fei's unusual demeanor. Recalling the events of yesterday's auction, they felt an unparalleled surge of jealousy and resentment towards the black-robed man, causing countless people to beat their chests in frustration. Yet, they dared not show the slightest sign of their displeasure, fearing the cold and terrifying black-robed man would target them.
The auction proceeded in full swing. Ya Fei, with her soft and alluring voice, introduced each item, captivating everyone's attention and prompting them to bid high prices.
Item after item was sold at exorbitant prices; not a single item went unsold—a rare occurrence even at the Mittel Auction House. Even Hai Bodong, watching Ya Fei's performance from his third-floor VIP box, nodded in approval.
"This little girl seems to have some skills. I didn't quite believe what you said before, sir. I thought she just had some strange abilities. It seems I misunderstood you. But you can't blame me, sir. What you're doing is indeed a bit perverted, so it's normal for me to misunderstand,"
Hai Bodong thought to himself, silently criticizing Hun Changqing.
Meanwhile, Hun Changqing was rather bored. He knew Ya Fei intimately; no matter how well she described the items, it couldn't compare to the way she moaned in bed. It couldn't stir his emotions at all.
And without the added bonus of special attributes, those items were nothing but trash in his eyes.
Inferior pills, weak fighting techniques, crude cultivation methods, and magic core weapons of questionable quality…
"Fourth-grade pill – Restoration Pill! Sold for 250,000 gold coins!"
"Third-tier magic core weapon – Thunderous Heavy Sword! Sold for 170,000 gold coins!"
"Third-tier medicinal herb – Fire Dragon Spirit Fruit! Sold for 20,000 gold coins!"
"Fourth-tier medicinal herb – Western Yuan Melon! Sold for 50,000 gold coins!"
…
As each item, which Hun Changqing considered trash, was auctioned off, his initial excitement at finding a bargain gradually cooled.
…
Finally, the auction ended. Hun Changqing stood up expressionlessly, walked out of the luxurious private room without a word, and his body emanated a dark aura. Sure enough, everything described in the storybooks was a lie. The rusty bronze fragments, the rusty black sword, the ancient futon, the mysterious parchment that couldn't be burned… none of it existed, it was all a lie!
Hai Bodong, looking at Hun Changqing, who was emanating a dark aura, was secretly alarmed, completely unaware of who had offended this man!
At this moment, Hun Changqing walked down to the first floor, arriving not far from the auction stage. When Ya Fei saw Hun Changqing come down, she immediately gave him a seductive wink.
Those still in the hall felt a pang of sadness, as if their hearts were bleeding, but no one dared to show any unusual expression or speak. The auction house fell into a rare silence.
Except…
"Sister, look, Ya Fei has someone she likes. I heard Mu Zhan is already here. Before he left the capital, he said he would kill anyone who dared to touch Ya Fei. If he comes and sees Ya Fei being intimate with this person, do you think he might…"
The woman in the purple dress named Yao Yue whispered to the cold and beautiful girl beside her.
But this soft voice seemed unusually loud in the suddenly silent auction hall, and everyone's eyes involuntarily glanced at the Second Princess, Yao Yue, who had just come down from the VIP room upstairs.
"Given Mu Zhan's temperament, this person is probably not going to have a good time today. Mu Zhan left the capital to train in the military camp on the border of the empire, and his strength is probably already at the peak of the Dou Shi level,"
the cold and beautiful girl said, seemingly unaware of the strangeness in the hall.
These two entered after Hun Changqing, so they naturally didn't know about Hun Changqing's terrifying side just now, and only regarded Hun Changqing as an unknown nobody.
Everyone looked at the two princesses with strange eyes, and the deep meaning in their eyes was self-evident.
"Oh, Mu Zhan is here! There's going to be a good show!"
Yao Yue suddenly pointed in the direction of the entrance and exit and said to Yao Ye with a sweet laugh.
A young man of about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with a fierce light in his eyes like a tiger, walked out of the passage with a strong killing intent.
Meanwhile, Hun Changqing, ignoring the commotion behind him, held Ya Fei in his arms and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, the young man's killing intent surged, his body erupting with intense battle qi. The killing intent and battle qi converged in his fist, unleashing a punch at Hun Changqing with earth-shattering speed!
However, apart from Yao Ye and Yao Yue, whose faces held amusement and amusement, the rest of the crowd watched the figure charging towards Hun Changqing with pity and sorrow. Hun
Changqing, with his back to the crowd, suddenly sensed a very faint battle qi behind him, carrying a trace of killing intent.
Hun Changqing frowned, somewhat puzzled, and instinctively patted his back lightly, gathering Taiyin True Qi in his hand. With
a "splat!"
, the ferocious youth who had suddenly sprung up, having just gathered his momentum and taken only two steps towards Hun Changqing, instantly exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist. Blood rained down where the mist had burst open.
Hun Changqing turned to look at the blood mist, somewhat puzzled, and asked Hai Bodong,
"What was that just now? Did you see it clearly?"
Hai Bodong: ...
Everyone present: ...
