Douluo Continent: Transmigrating into Qian Xunji, Tang San is Tang San's Daughter
Chapter 14: Foreshadowing of a tragic fate, the prelude to a good show.
The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan wasn't wealthy to begin with; this was already their maximum.
On the other side, Ning Zhen didn't even blink. With a flourish of his pen, he listed out a long list of sponsorships given to him by Emperor Xueye last night, along with several core commercial streets and soul bones of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, plus the secret technique for distraction control.
A moment later, all the parchment was collected and neatly stacked on the table in front of Qian Xunji.
The entire audience held their breath, everyone staring intently at Qian Xunji's slender hands.
Chihiro casually picked up the first one, glanced at it, and put it away.
The second one, put it away.
When he saw the third offer—Ning Zhen's bid—his eyebrows twitched slightly, and a hint of a smile flashed in his eyes.
Good heavens, Ning Zhen is such a philanthropist. He swindled me out of a fortune this time, and he'll be able to swindle me out of another fortune in a few years with his soul tools.
Qian Xunji didn't even want to look at Yu Yuanzhen's bid anymore, but out of politeness, he symbolically flipped through it.
At the end, he simply pulled out the parchment from Ningzhen and gently patted it on the table.
"The results are in."
Qian Xunji stood up, looked at the crowd craning their necks below, and announced loudly:
"After careful consideration, this peerless genius of the Twin Spider Emperors will ultimately belong to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
"What?"
Yu Yuanzhen slammed his hand on the table and stood up abruptly, his eyes almost bulging out of their sockets:
"This is impossible! Qian Xunji, are you blind?"
They're a bunch of tower-playing kids from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, what kind of teaching material do they have for Twin Beast Martial Souls?
"Isn't the price offered by my Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan enough?"
"Sect Master Yu, watch your words."
Qian Xunji gave him a cold glance.
"As I said, the highest bidder wins. If you look at the list given by Sect Master Ning, you'll know how... frugal your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is."
Ning Zhen suppressed his overwhelming joy, stood up, and cupped his hands in greeting to those around him, saying, "Thank you for your kind offer, everyone."
Although Dai Tianfeng and Tang Zhen's faces were ashen, they could only swallow their anger because of the solemn oath they had just sworn.
By then, Xueye was fairly satisfied with the trip; he could wait thirty years.
"Alright, that concludes today's auction."
Qian Xunji waved his hand and began to shoo people away.
"Since you've come from afar, you can stay in Martial Soul City for a couple more days. Everything you buy will be 10% off. As for Sect Master Ning..."
Qian Xunji looked at Ning Zhen and smiled meaningfully:
"That child has a special identity. To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, tonight I will personally escort her to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's headquarters, and while I'm at it... let's check the accounts."
Gentlemen, please return.
……
As night fell, Wuhun City fell silent.
Inside the villa of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan,
Yu Yuanzhen was sitting in the hall, pacing back and forth anxiously.
The table in front of him was laden with fine wines and delicacies, but he had no interest in appreciating them.
"Squeak—"
The door was pushed open, and Qian Xunji, dressed in a black robe, walked in alone.
"Hahaha! I knew it!"
Upon seeing Qian Xunji appear, Yu Yuanzhen excitedly rushed forward, his eyes filled with pride.
"During the day in the Papal Palace, you were definitely putting on an act for those idiots, weren't you?"
Why would they give the Twin Beast Martial Soul to that nouveau riche of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School instead of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? It's utterly ridiculous!
Where is she? Quickly bring that little girl in!
Seeing Yu Yuanzhen's wildly imaginative thoughts, Qian Xunji unceremoniously pulled up a chair, sat down, poured himself a glass of wine, and sighed.
"Sect Master Yu, you're overthinking it."
I wasn't joking during the day; you really didn't win.
Yu Yuanzhen's smile froze on his face, then he flew into a rage: "You're playing me?! What are you doing here in the middle of the night?!"
"Don't get excited."
Qian Xunji took a sip of wine.
"I'm here because you also have a heart for appreciating talent, and as a friendly bonus, I'm giving you a top-secret piece of information. It's about your son, Yu Xiaogang."
Upon hearing the name "Yu Xiaogang," Yu Yuanzhen's pupils constricted sharply, and his lightning soul power uncontrollably exploded for a moment.
"Xiao Gang... what's wrong with him?!"
"His martial soul, Luo Sanpao, is not a useless martial soul at all."
Qian Xunji dropped a bombshell.
"After comparing and verifying with the highest-level documents of my Spirit Hall, it is actually an extremely rare 'benign mutation'. However, the mutation process lacked sufficient energy stimulation and stalled halfway, which is why it appears to be useless."
"In other words, he himself doesn't know if he has a chance, but there's a possibility that his martial soul can still be saved."
"What did you say? Benign mutation?" Yu Yuanzhen stared intently at Qian Xunji, his breathing becoming rapid.
He always felt guilty towards his good-for-nothing son, if that's true...
"Not only that."
Qian Xunji began to dig a pit, patiently guiding the girl.
"If we're talking about the most profound research on mutated martial souls and martial soul defects, apart from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the entire continent..."
Who else?
Moreover, to fully activate your son's martial soul, you would need an extremely large quantity and a vast amount of rare and precious top-grade natural treasures.
"Does your Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan have the financial resources?"
Qian Xunji stood up and patted the stunned Yu Yuanzhen on the shoulder:
"Ning Zhen now not only has money, but also data from generations of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School on the research of martial soul defects and evolution."
Sect Leader Yu, for the sake of your son's future, your two sects should get closer and communicate more in the future.
Having said that, Qian Xunji concealed his merits and fame, pushed open the door, and disappeared into the night.
Yu Yuanzhen was left standing there alone, his eyes gradually shifting from shock to fervor.
"Xiao Gang... Xiao Gang's martial soul can still be saved! Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School... Ning Zhen! Yes, let's cooperate with him."
Yu Yuanzhen slammed his fist on the table, as if grasping at the last straw.
Outside the door, Qian Xunji listened to the commotion coming from inside and gave a satisfied, cold laugh.
Go ahead, go and exchange ideas. Once you've brought Yu Xiaogang and Bibi Dong together...
That would be the exciting scene of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan both returning home.
……
After leaving the villa of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Qian Xunji headed straight for the secret chamber behind the Papal Palace.
At this moment, Bibi Dong sat quietly on the bed in the secret room, her eyes as cold as a venomous snake.
She was waiting.
When Qian Xunji, just like in his previous life, pushes open this door, showers her with insincere concern, and then takes her as his disciple...
She had even prepared a perfect story to gain the trust of this beast.
"Click".
The door opened.
Qian Xunji strode in decisively, and without saying a word, grabbed Bibi Dong by the scruff of her neck and lifted her up like a chick.
"Your Holiness... what are you doing?" Bibi Dong instantly got into character, squeezing out a few tears of terror from her eyes, trembling.
"Shut up, I'm taking you to move."
Qian Xunji didn't buy into her act at all. He casually grabbed a black cloak, wrapped her up, and dragged her out of the secret room, stuffing her into a low-key carriage that had been prepared beforehand.
