Miao Haoqiong grabbed Yang Qianqin and shoved her towards the sink. Yang Qianqin groaned as her waist hit the sink, causing her great pain. She knew that Miao Haoqiong would not show her any mercy, but she couldn't help feeling resentment.

The man leaned forward and grabbed her face, his voice chillingly cold, "Do you even remember what we came here for today! Why did you go and provoke Yang Nianqing if you had no other choice!"

"Why can't I go? Miao Haoqiong, are you afraid of her?!"

"Yang Qianqin, your attempts to provoke me won't work on me! Don't try to anger me, or you won't be able to handle the consequences!"

Yang Qianqin bit her lower lip in humiliation, while Miao Haoqiong burst into laughter. After a while, he loosened his grip and cupped her face in his hands. "I'm very interested in that real heiress, so please don't cause me any trouble for now, okay? Be good."

The man's eyes were filled with deep affection, and his tone was tender and lingering, as if she were the love of his life. But Yang Qianqin, who knew his true colors, felt a chill run down her spine. This man was too good at pretending! He said he loved you, but he was actually subjecting you to the torture of being slowly sliced ​​to death!

This lunatic! A madman!

She was certain that Miao Haoqiong was just playing her for a fool by changing his attitude every now and then!

“Kyoto is a place where hidden talents abound, and I don’t want to cause any trouble, understand?” Miao Haoqiong chuckled.

There have been so many changes lately. One of his two apprentices died and the other was arrested. He also received news that the matter in Huaiqing City had been taken care of!
Others only knew that there were many ghost kings there, but did he know that there were also two thousand-year-old demons there? He wondered who was so capable. It was a pity about his plan. He wanted to use those two demons, who were of little use to him, to train those fierce ghosts and create more ghost kings. He even personally sent in some talented ones. Who knew that in the end it would all be for nothing? If he had known, he would have devoured those fierce ghosts earlier. It was such a waste of that good place for raising ghosts.

As for the person who dealt with Huaiqing City, he guessed that they were probably in Kyoto now. Yang Qianqin knew about Bai Ze, and it was possible that others knew as well. Bai Ze could not fall into the hands of others.

Everything will be discussed once he obtains Bai Ze's primordial spirit.

The auction was about to begin, and Yang Nianqing and Song Kaijie had already taken their seats in the private room arranged for them. Song Kaijie looked around anxiously. He had told the waiter to bring his grandmother and partner over if they arrived, but the two of them had not yet appeared. He had sent WeChat messages but received no reply, and he could not get through on the phone. He was getting extremely worried.

Money! Money! At least give him the card!
Song Kaijie glanced at Yang Nianqing furtively, wondering if the big shot would end up paying for him in the end. "Grandma, come quick! We can't afford to lose face like that!"

Not long after, the host came on stage and began to introduce the first item to be auctioned. It was a set of ancient jade jewelry with excellent translucency and a lustrous finish, exuding the charm of time. It was said to have been part of the dowry of a princess during the Ming Dynasty. The first owner was hard to verify, but the year was probably correct. Given its age and excellent preservation, its value was considerable.

Many antique enthusiasts were tempted and began to bid.

"Sister Qing, this..." Song Kaijie asked. Their goal was to bid for the boundary-suppressing stone, but they really didn't know what it was. Although it was a piece of jewelry, the boundary-suppressing stone could very well be inside the ancient jade that had been made into jewelry.

Yang Nianqing shook his head; the Spirit Stone did not react.

Seeing this, Song Kaijie could only be patient and wait.

As each item was brought up for auction, Yang Nianqing shook her head.

Behind them, an old man was watching them furtively. He was so engrossed in his stare that he was suddenly kicked by someone next to him, startling him so much that he almost screamed.

"Gu Xiyuan, what are you doing! You scared me to death!" Song Pengyao patted his chest and shouted in a low voice.

Gu Xiyuan rolled his eyes. "My granddaughter is very sharp. If you keep watching her for a little longer, she'll notice you. Don't blame me if she doesn't warn you then."

Song Pengyao curled his lips. His old friend had become more violent and talkative after he became younger. He was always showing off his precious granddaughter. What was so great about her? She was just a medical expert with unparalleled skills and a young age with profound cultivation. He wasn't envious at all, really!

He glanced at his grandson again and couldn't help but ask Gu Xiyuan, "Hey, Gu Xiyuan, where's my wife?" "How should I know? You're asking me? You're asking a ghost!"

Song Pengyao: "...You're so useless."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xiyuan slapped him on the head. He was already being kind by coming along, yet he dared to nitpick at him!
"I miss my wife so much. I haven't seen her for so many days."

Gu Xiyuan: "…………"

Destroy him! Knowing this idiot was the biggest mistake he ever made!
Time passed slowly, but the boundary stone still hadn't appeared. Song Kaijie grew increasingly impatient, as did Miao Haoqiong on the other side.

He clenched his fists, his face terribly grim.

"Yang Qianqin, do you really think the Bai Ze jade pendant you mentioned will appear? You should know the consequences of deceiving me."

Yang Qianqin paused, nodded, and said, "Of course I know, why would I lie to you?"

"Humph!"

Seeing Miao Haoqiong's gaze return to the stage, Yang Qianqin took a deep breath. Her back was covered in cold sweat. She didn't know what had gone wrong. In her dream, the Bai Ze jade pendant was clearly the seventh item to be auctioned. Why hadn't it appeared yet after the 14th item had been auctioned? What was going on?

"Alright, the fourteenth lot has been sold. Next, we will present the fifteenth lot. Ladies and gentlemen, please look at the big screen."

The emcee pushed the items up for auction, and the camera panned to the items displayed on the platform.

It was a jade pendant depicting an animal, adorned with luxurious tassels. The host was speaking eloquently about the pendant, stirring up people's desire to buy it.

The jade was pure white, shaped like a lion, with auspicious cloud and fire patterns on its limbs.

It’s Bai Ze!
Great! It finally appeared!
"This is it!" Yang Qianqin said excitedly.

Miao Haoqiong looked at her with a slightly gloomy expression. "Are you sure?"

Yang Qianqin understood the warning in his eyes. For a moment, she hesitated. In her dream, Bai Ze was clearly residing in a jade pendant that resembled his true form. How could it have become a jade pendant now? In a flash, Yang Qianqin nodded firmly. She thought she must have misremembered. This must be Bai Ze!

"I'm just providing information. Shouldn't you be the one to verify whether it's true or false? You should have a way to see if Bai Ze's soul resides in that jade pendant."

Miao Haoqiong didn't speak, but just looked at her quietly. After a while, he turned his gaze back to the white jade pendant and released his divine sense to sense it.

At this point, people in the room started bidding, and the price of the jade pendant rose steadily.

Yang Nianqing, on the other hand, frowned.

"What's wrong, Sister Qing? Is it this?" Song Kaijie's eyes lit up. Finally, she appeared!
