Douluo: The Peerless Dragon Shakes the Universe.

Chapter 80 Remnants of the Spirit Hall

The girl in the yellow dress turned her head, a hint of surprise on her face.

"Young master, you know a lot about this?"

Jiang Shuo nodded calmly, "It's alright."

Upon hearing this advice, the girl hesitated for a moment.

At that very moment, the auctioneer brought down the gavel, and the sale was completed for 1.25 million Lotus of Calamity.

By the time she realized it, the item was gone.

The girl glanced at the black-haired boy with a wistful look.

Jiang Shuo raised an eyebrow at the transaction price of 1.25 million.

This price is indeed taking advantage of an information gap, exceeding the markup by more than ten times.

"Young master, your disdain for this lotus flower may be due to your familiarity with it, but it's clear that not everyone is like you."

A sigh came from the girl beside him.

Jiang Shuo glanced at her and saw her gently shaking her head, seemingly regretting not being able to snatch the Calamity Lotus, and already preparing to get up and leave.

Jiang Shuo hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stood up.

Jiang Tie and Jiang Shao tried to get up, but the boy casually held them down.

"If you're really interested in those treasures that can increase cultivation speed, I do have some. I'll sell them to you at the normal price."

The two slowly left the auction house through a special passage. Upon hearing the words, the young girl wearing a red mask turned around in surprise.

Once outside, the lighting was much better, and Jiang Shuo was able to see the general outline of her appearance and her age.

His age should be similar to Jiang Shao's.

"Is the young master now promoting his treasures?" After saying that, the girl couldn't help but raise the corners of her fair lips, revealing a smile that touched people's hearts.

Jiang Shuo's eyes flashed with surprise. Although he still couldn't see her face, the girl in front of him exuded a pure, elegant, and sacred aura from within.

Seeing that the boy didn't answer and seemed a little stunned, the girl stopped and her eyes flickered.

The next moment, she raised her slender, white hand and removed the mask from her face.

A stunningly beautiful face emerged, with delicate phoenix eyes and a straight nose that added a touch of majesty to her appearance. Her bright eyes had a golden tinge, her skin was as white as snow, and her lips were rosy and luscious.

Jiang Shuo thought for a moment and then took off his mask.

His face revealed a solemn and upright expression.

He could only be described as having above-average looks, not exactly a handsome man.

However, the girl in the pale yellow outfit was also taken aback.

I didn't feel much in the dimly lit auction hall and because I was covered by a mask.

At this moment, after the young man revealed his true appearance, a sharp and arrogant aura truly emanated from him.

She could tell, of course, that her looks weren't exactly stunning, but men never relied on their appearance.

Jiang Shuo paused for a moment, then said slowly, "May I ask your name, young lady?"

The girl also turned her gaze away from the boy's face and chuckled softly, "Ye Guyi."

"Where is the young master?"

"Jiang Shuo".

Is your surname Jiang?

The girl couldn't help but raise her gaze again to take another look at the boy in front of her.

Jiang Shuo was also shocked. His remaining memories reminded him that this girl's identity was not simple.

A descendant of the Spirit Hall, possessing a Spirit Soul with the dual extreme attributes of holiness and light.

No wonder she reacted strangely when the Spirit Hall was mentioned.

Some of them even had a flicker of interest when faced with the Tribulation Lotus, which could increase cultivation speed.

"Miss Ye, I interrupted your auction by speaking up earlier. If you want rare and precious materials that can improve your cultivation speed, I can sell them to you at a discounted price as compensation."

Ye Guyi concealed the strange look in her eyes.

Hearing the boy's words, he shook his head.

"No need. Young master previously said that the Calamity Lotus is difficult to suppress the quality of a powerful martial soul. Then the rare and precious materials you mentioned must be even more effective than the Calamity Lotus."

"I can't accept a reward without merit. The price of the Lotus of Calamity is as high as 1.25 million, and I can't afford yours."

"As for a discount, there's no need for that. It was my hesitation that caused me to miss out on the treasure; it has nothing to do with Young Master Jiang."

After saying this, Ye Guyi smiled lightly, waved to the boy, and walked out.

Jiang Shuo's brow twitched slightly.

This was the first time he had encountered a woman who so readily and bluntly refused him, showing him no respect.

In the blink of an eye, the golden figure in front of them disappeared around the corner.

When I went up again, it was completely out of sight.

Jiang Shuo frowned, slowly realizing that his words just now seemed a bit too blunt.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

We should have been more tactful.

As he walked back, he couldn't help but start thinking about how to phrase things more tactfully, which puzzled Jiang Shuo.

He's not that kind of person at all!

Why would I think about these things?

……

The auction was no longer interesting, so they went back to wake Jiang Tie and Jiang Shao, and the three of them left this money-making center of Tian Dou.

Since it was still early, the three of them began to stroll around this premier city in the north.

To be honest, as one of the four major capitals and the first imperial capital in the north with a history of ten thousand years, it was indeed a place of great prosperity.

Unlike his memories from his previous life, where the imperial court generally regulated commerce.

Here, nothing is done. Shops line the streets, and even on the official road that can accommodate ten carriages traveling side by side, porters and peddlers sell their wares.

The three strolled leisurely along the wide, clean streets lined with shops.

After walking for a while, they vaguely realized that they seemed to have left the center of Tiandou City.

The Heavenly Soul Palace is located directly north of Heavenly Dou City, but the three of them headed south.

Just as they were about to turn back to normal, a commotion suddenly broke out on the official road from south to north.

A group of robust people dressed in gray-black robes were walking from south to north.

This somewhat unusual attire immediately attracted the attention of other people on the street.

But this group of people, who were clearly disciples of a sect, ignored them completely, broke through the crowd, and strode northward.

They didn't walk very fast, but in the blink of an eye, they were already dozens of meters away.

Jiang Tie's heart stirred. As a Soul Master who also followed the path of fierceness, he could tell that the Martial Souls of this group of people must be of some kind of power type, and that they must also be using some kind of footwork.

He looked at the strong, tall young man leading the group; he was the one with the most profound cultivation in the entire group.

At the same time, the leading youth seemed to sense the gaze as well, turned around and met Jiang Tie's eyes. The sudden clash of their gazes created an invisible spark in the air.

But after a moment, the group of people in gray-black robes did not stop, and continued to stride northward.

Jiang Tie moved closer to Jiang Shuo and whispered, "Young Master, are they people from the Haotian Sect?"

Jiang Tie couldn't think of any other sect besides the former number one sect in the world that possessed such physical characteristics and soul power aura.

Jiang Shuo nodded slightly, "It's the Haotian Sect."

He saw a pink-haired guy.

"It seems the Haotian Sect is very determined to emerge; even those who don't usually like to join in the fun have come."

"Let's go too, let's see what tricks the Body Sect and the Heavenly Soul Empire are up to."

Jiang Shao and Jiang Tie nodded, ended their stroll, and headed towards the northern imperial palace.
