Douluo Continent: Peerless Fusion Evolution

Chapter 35 Anonymous Auction! Who Will Win? (Seeking votes! Please continue reading!)

"Forget it, let's give up!" His hands clenched into fists, his nails almost digging into his flesh.

Poison Undying was filled with anger and resentment, emotions that threatened to consume him.

He is a powerful figure known to everyone on this continent, but now, due to temporary financial difficulties, he is unable to participate in this game.

Li Sansi sat in the private room, his gaze casually sweeping over the faces distorted by money. A slight, almost imperceptible, sarcastic smile appeared on his lips.

These people's joys and sorrows are laid bare on the scale of money; every increase in greedy eyes, trembling fingers, and rapid breathing becomes a satirical poem in their hearts.

Li Sansi's pleasure did not stem from the victory of forceful acquisition, but from a deeper level of clarity and detachment. He used his dedication and composure to confront this magnificent game.

In all of this, he was just an outsider, watching these people as if they were watching a comedy, crying and laughing, unaware of the farce they had been cast into.

A sharp glint flashed in Li Sansi's eyes. He knew it was time to unveil another layer of the game and add even more interest. He stood alone by the window of the private room, his lips slightly moving, while Hai Bodong below the stage nodded slightly.

"Knock knock knock! Everyone, time's up! Please leave one by one. We will contact the winning buyer to complete the transaction."

The auction bells rang, signaling the end of the event. The echoing sound of the bells gradually faded from everyone's hearts, and the crowd began to move about in a bustling manner, like the receding tide.

Some people wore smiles of satisfaction as they carefully held their newly acquired treasures, their eyes filled with pride and reverence.

Many others, however, remained somewhat disappointed, quietly discussing who would ultimately win the auction.

Hai Bodong stepped into the private room of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile School. The luster of the Immortal Herbs, Silky Tulips and Tulips swirled in the air. Taking a deep breath, he was filled with the fragrance of herbs and trees.

The private room was decorated with exquisite and antique style. Hai Bodong's gaze fell on Ning Zhongze, who was sitting in the main seat. He had a handsome face and an elegant demeanor.

"Sect Master Ning, this is the immortal herb you have been waiting for." Hai Bodong's voice exuded an unquestionable authority.

He took a gold-inlaid and jade-encrusted box from his attendant, carefully opened it, and immediately, a beautiful tulip, crystal clear and emitting a faint precious light, appeared before his eyes, its fragrance filling the air.

Ning Zhongze gazed at the immortal herb, a hint of surprise and confirmation flashing in her eyes. She knew the preciousness of this Qiluo Tulip; it could not only evolve a martial soul but also strengthen a soul master's foundation, making it truly rare.

"Good, as expected of the Sky-Breaking Commerce Guild, Your Majesty Ice Emperor, this is exactly what I need." Ning Zhongze's voice carried a sense of certainty, while also revealing a hint of longing.

His hands trembled slightly. He knew this was more than just an object; it was a key, a key to unlocking the future of the sect. The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's reputation would shine because of it.

"In that case, I shall take my leave. I hope that our Sky-Breaking Chamber of Commerce can have more cooperation with the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile School in the future."

Hai Bodong put away the gold card with a face value of 100 million, smiled slightly, and then turned and left.

"As expected! The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School won the auction item." Jing Hongchen's eyes flickered slightly, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

As if remembering something, Jing Hongchen said quickly, "Xiao, Meng, let's get out of the city quickly, or we might be in danger."

As the auction came to an end, the auction hall became quiet.

However, outside Shrek City, many uninvited guests appeared.

Outside Shrek City, dark clouds loomed overhead, and a biting wind howled.

The sect leader of the Body Sect, Poison Undying, stood on a deserted flat ground, as if waiting for someone to arrive.

His figure looked particularly sinister and terrifying under the gloomy sky.

His eyes, like those of a venomous snake, gleamed with a cold light. The sect elders beside him, each a renowned expert on the continent, all appeared timid and hesitant in the face of Poison Undying, daring not to make any move.

Amidst this tense atmosphere, the powerful figures from various factions had already quietly hidden in the shadows, their gazes as sharp as blades, fixed intently on Poison Undying and his subordinates.

Some of these powerful figures hiding in the shadows came for justice, wanting to stop Du Busi's evil deeds; others coveted what Du Busi had stolen and wanted to take advantage of the situation to cause trouble.

A tense and dangerous atmosphere filled the air, as if it could erupt at any moment.

Li Sansi, under Hai Bodong's cover, arrived outside Shrek City and quietly observed how things were developing.

Soon, they saw Jing Hongchen leading Xiao Hongchen, Meng Hongchen, and the soul masters of the Sun Moon Empire flying at an extremely fast speed using a flying soul tool.

Besides Jing Hongchen, a level nine Soul Master, there are two other level nine Soul Masters, both of whom are famous top experts in the Sun Moon Empire. In addition, there are quite a few other level seven and eight Soul Masters.

Not far away, a cloud of dust rose as several figures rushed towards them, stopping in front of Jing Hongchen and his companions, revealing the childlike face of Du Busi. These people were none other than Du Busi, the sect leader of the Body Sect, and his sect elders. Their eerie aura and intense killing intent immediately made Jing Hongchen feel a great threat.

Poisonous Immortal sneered, his voice carrying a chilling venom. "Mirror Red Dust, you've brought such a treasure out today, isn't it specially prepared for us? Hand over those treasures obediently, and I might spare your life."

After he finished speaking, a burst of green energy suddenly erupted, as if to prove his decisiveness and ruthlessness.

Just as Jing Hongchen was on guard, several powerful auras appeared in his soul power perception, gradually approaching from all directions. It was clear that there were other powerful figures from other forces hiding around, and this ambush was obviously meticulously planned.

The current situation has turned into a multi-party encirclement, and if not handled properly, it will be an unavoidable disaster.

However, just as the tension between the two sides reached its peak, Jing Hongchen suddenly revealed a mysterious smile, took out several level-nine soul-guided cannonballs from his storage device, and placed them in front of everyone. Although these cannonballs were small in size, the strong shockwaves they released made the air heavy.

"Poison won't kill you. Do you think I just brought these treasures out without making thorough preparations?" Jing Hongchen's voice was deep and cold, carrying an undeniable sense of oppression. "Each of these cannonballs is enough to severely injure a Title Douluo. Are you sure you want to take it by force?"

Faced with this sudden threat, Poison Undying's expression turned grim, his eyes flashing with an unpredictable light. He knew that if a real battle broke out, once these shells exploded, neither side would be spared.

After a moment of silence, Poison Undying finally nodded in relentment and said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, I'll spare your life this time. I hope you won't be so lucky next time." With that, he and his accomplices quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

Seeing this, Jing Hongchen and the others breathed a sigh of relief and seized the opportunity to leave quickly without any hesitation. The lurking auras behind them seemed to have lost their target and gradually dissipated. This crisis, though extremely dangerous, was ultimately cleverly resolved by Jing Hongchen.

"A level nine soul-guided cannonball, huh? Interesting!" Li Sansi smiled faintly, then disappeared.
