The woman on stage was slightly taken aback, and upon seeing that it was Li Daokai offering the price, she thought to herself, 'This is a god of wealth!'

With this thought in mind, his hands moved quickly. Seeing that no one was following him, he immediately struck the hammer.

The witch standing beside Li Dao swallowed her words upon seeing the treasure that had just been placed in Li Dao's hands. She had originally wanted to buy it, but now she had no choice but to give up.

"Little brother, I gave up competing for the price for you. Remember to show me what you've figured out later."

Li Daozi had no objection and nodded with a smile.

Chapter 193 Yuechan and Double Pupils

But just as the gavel struck, a gentle voice, like a clear spring, drifted from the entrance of the auction hall:

"Please wait a moment."

The many cultivators in the hall all turned their heads to look. The voice was so ethereal and clear, as if it came from the realm of gods, and it touched people's hearts and soothed their souls.

A man clad in golden armor with a resolute face came into view.

"It's the nineteenth prince!" someone immediately recognized him.

Beside him was another person, a woman. Judging from the fact that the nineteenth prince personally lifted the beaded curtain, the newcomer must be of extraordinary status.

The voice had come from the woman's mouth, and Li Dao was startled, becoming wary.

The sound easily resonated with him, indicating that the newcomer was highly skilled. The witch beside him also frowned slightly.

She was a woman as beautiful as a celestial being, dressed in white with an otherworldly grace. Her figure was as graceful as a willow swaying in the breeze, her body tall and slender, her jet-black hair shimmering with light, and her neck as white and delicate as a swan's.

Although her face was covered by a light veil, her eyes, which seemed to be veiled in mist, still made people think of the peerless beauty hidden beneath the veil.

If the beauty of a witch lies in her charming elegance, then the beauty of this woman lies in her refined and dignified demeanor; they are two completely different kinds of beauty.

Seeing the nineteenth prince being so polite to her, many cultivators became agitated, both because they were infatuated with her appearance and curious about her identity.

"Who is this woman? To receive such courtesy from the Nineteenth Prince, she must be someone extraordinary."

"Is this a celestial maiden descending to earth?"

Li Dao fiddled with the object in his hand, but quickly looked away, as the enigmatic gaze from the witch beside him made him uneasy.

"Little brother, isn't your older sister beautiful? You haven't been staring at me for this long."

Li Dao coughed a few times, about to offer a few words of explanation, when the Nineteenth Prince's words came over.

"My friend also wants to participate in the auction, I wonder if we could wait a moment."

"This..." The two men on the stage looked troubled. The hammer had already been dropped, and the items were already in Li Dao's hands, so there was no reason to go back on their word. However, the identity of the nineteenth prince was not something they could easily offend.

They could only turn their attention to the private room where Li Dao and his companion were.

The nineteenth prince also turned his gaze to Li Dao and the other two, and said:

"Fellow Daoist, my friend wants the battle puppet you possess. I'm willing to pay ten times the price to buy it. Is that alright?"

"I am the nineteenth prince of the Kingdom of Shi. If you agree, I will offer you a generous reward."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone turned their attention to Li Dao, wanting to see what he would do.

"It's mine." Li Dao, sensing the gazes around him, put the battle puppet in his hand into his storage bag and said calmly.

They didn't care at all about the nineteenth prince's identity.

The woman behind the nineteenth prince stepped forward gracefully, her voice ringing out like a kingfisher's:

“Fellow Daoist, I really like this item. If you would like to trade it with me, just name your price.”

"I am willing to bear the consequences."

Upon hearing this, the witch standing beside Li Dao immediately revealed a cunning look in her eyes, and in a flash, she disappeared from the private room.

"Oh? You're willing to pay any price? Then why don't you marry him?"

Pink petals slowly drifted down, and the witch's figure appeared in mid-air.

When everyone saw that another fairy-like figure had arrived, their gazes towards Li Dao's private room were filled with envy and jealousy.

If they obtain that treasure, I will be the one favored by the two fairies right now!

Upon hearing the witch's words, Li Dao's expression turned somewhat strange, and the woman's expression also stiffened.

However, the witch ignored her and flashed to the woman's side, whispering intimately in her ear:

"Sister, this is a promising prospect, why don't you consider it?"

"If you marry him, it won't be a bad deal for you."

The woman was all too familiar with the witch's nature, so she didn't say anything more. She took a deep look at the private room where Li Dao was, sighed softly, and didn't press the matter any further.

That sigh made everyone present feel the other person's disappointment, while some of the more powerful cultivators became extremely wary.

Someone who can easily stir up other people's emotions is no ordinary character; their strength must be extraordinary.

Upon learning the witch's identity, his expression changed drastically. Knowing that she was connected to the outer realms, his heart trembled.

Seeing that Yuechan had left, the witch stopped pursuing her and, with her head held high like a victorious rooster, returned to Li Dao's side.

Seeing this outcome, the nineteenth prince looked somewhat embarrassed and awkwardly followed Yuechan into the VIP room.

The farce ended in this eerie atmosphere, and the witch seemed to be determined to challenge Yuechan, repeatedly bidding against a blood-stained bead.

However, Li Dao eventually managed to get it; the contents inside were simply too tempting for him.

"It can draw upon the power of Yin and Yang. If nothing unexpected happens, what's inside is that double pupil."

However, the two women were unaware that after examining the body closely, Yuechan said:

"It's a pity that it was tainted by divine blood and destroyed."

As for the witch, she no longer competed with Li Dao; her purpose was merely to annoy Yuechan.

Li Dao spent a lot more money to acquire it, but compared to what was inside, it didn't matter.

After obtaining these two divine items, Li Dao did not make any further moves until the auction ended, at which point he and the witch left the auction hall.

Seeing the two leave, the nineteenth prince wanted to bring up the idea of ​​buying the battle puppet again, but he gave up the idea after seeing the witch.

The witch's background is also extraordinary; she's not someone he can afford to offend.

As Li Dao slowly walked towards his residence, he paused slightly, bid farewell to the witch beside him, and then prepared to leave.

"Oh, is this an invitation from a beautiful lady? Don't be late, there will be an exchange among the younger generation in a few days, so don't be late."

After making a few jokes, the witch said no more and turned to leave.

Following the voice in his mind, Li Dao arrived at an inn. After greeting the servant, he came to a small courtyard with a small bridge, flowing water, and a secluded house.

Pushing open the door, one sees Shi Hao already pouring wine under the small pavilion in the courtyard.

"Senior Brother Li, it's been a long time. Your cultivation has become even more unfathomable."

Upon seeing Li Dao arrive, Shi Hao couldn't help but smile. Meeting an old friend in a foreign land was indeed a fortunate thing.

Several months have passed since we parted ways at the Demon Transformation Cave that day.

Li Dao smiled and shook his head, then sat down opposite him and began to talk about the recent events.

After exchanging pleasantries, Shi Hao revealed another purpose for his visit to Li Dao.

"Senior Brother Li, do you know about the Indestructible Golden Body?"

A glint of light flashed in Li Dao's eyes, and he nodded at Shi Hao.

Seeing Li Dao nod, Shi Hao's doubts subsided, and he said to him:

"Since you know, Senior Brother, I won't keep you in suspense any longer. I plan to go to the Martial King's Mansion to investigate, as I need the help of the Indestructible Golden Body."

"I hope Senior Brother Li can hand over that indestructible golden body to me. In exchange, I will also offer a corresponding reward."

When Shi Hao inquired about the Indestructible Golden Body, Li Dao already knew his thoughts, but his expression didn't change much.

With a wave of his hand, he placed the indestructible golden body in front of Shi Hao.

"This..." Shi Hao was somewhat at a loss when he saw Li Dao's generosity.

However, Li Dao's actions touched him somewhat. Since he knew about the indestructible golden body, he must also know its value.

It would be a lie to say that he wasn't moved when Li Dao actually took out something so precious. All the lingering doubts in his heart vanished instantly.

"Thank you very much, Senior Brother Li. Since you are so generous, I will not let you suffer any loss."

"This item is worth as much as the indestructible golden body."

In Shi Hao's hand was a piece of bone that looked like mutton fat jade. The bone was brand new, but the runes imprinted on it were extremely mysterious.

It was clearly for the purpose of a transaction, and the runes were re-imprinted.

When Li Dao sensed the runes on the bone fragment, his pupils involuntarily contracted.

"The original and true solution!"

Chapter 194 Original True Explanation

Li Dao took the bone fragment in his hand, and after a brief moment of sensing it, his mind seemed to be pulled into a time scroll.

In the painting, the figures of various terrifying ancient beasts unfold before your eyes, showing their continuous evolution, and in the end, they all transform into the most primordial runes.

There are countless such ferocious beasts, but in the end, they are only a few hundred runes. Li Dao felt as if he had opened a door he had never stepped into before, and for a moment he was stunned.

As dusk fell, he finally shifted his focus from the bone fragment. Once he regained his senses, he cupped his hands in a respectful greeting to Shi Hao before him and said:

"Junior Brother Shi, this item is far too valuable. I've actually gotten a good deal."

Shi Hao waved his hand, not caring at all. Li Daoneng took out the Undying Golden Body without saying a word. It was just a scripture, so why would he be reluctant to part with it?

Li Dao pondered for a moment, then said to Shi Hao:

"I owe you a favor now, and I will definitely come to your aid if you ever need it in the future."

Shi Hao waved his hand and said:

"You're too kind, senior brother. We've known each other for several years now; it's just some external stuff."

Upon hearing this, Li Dao stopped talking about it and instead explained the reason for his trip to the capital.
