Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor-Chapter 594 - 591: Heart-Destroying Beast Incarnation (27th Update!)

Chapter 594: Chapter 591: Heart-Destroying Beast Incarnation (27th Update!)

Listening to these people’s discussions, inside the private box, Su Han’s eyebrows involuntarily furrowed.

"They all know that a cultivator cultivates oneself, cultivates the state of mind, and yet they still can’t stop those annoying mouths!"

Nangong Yu glanced at Su Han and teased, "I’ve always heard that Sect Master Su has a very good relationship with Yun Qianqian. Before we came here, Yun Qianqian actually went to Phoenix Sect twice, braving the great risks under this catastrophe and paying a hefty price from the Central Domain. Could it be that Sect Master Su is somewhat unable to tolerate these hurtful remarks of the loose cultivators?"

"Annoyed I’m not, but I’m somewhat disappointed in their state of mind," Su Han replied indifferently.

"These people can’t escape the mindset of the secular world. They only know how to gloat in misfortune, even if they have high talents they will not achieve much in the future."

"Tsk tsk."

Nangong Yu laughed twice and after a brief pause, he continued, "Sect Master Su, you can’t seriously think that Yun Qianqian risked so much to visit Phoenix Sect twice just for the Kunpeng Sacred Body, do you?"

Su Han was startled and involuntarily looked at Nangong Yu, "Then what was it for?"

"You really are dense."

Shaking his head, Nangong Yu said, "Using a woman’s intuition, I feel that she did it for you."

"Nonsense," Su Han rolled his eyes in response.

"You don’t believe it?"

With a chuckling snort, Nangong Yu said, "Then let me ask you, weren’t your relations with Yun Qianqian quite good in the past? Does she not understand your personality? Knowing you as she does, she must be aware that you would never lead Phoenix Sect to join the Myriad Treasures Pavilion. So why did she come to the Phoenix Sect in person to find you?"

"That so-called good relationship and her asking for your consent were just excuses," he continued.

"And the second time she came, if it was really for the Kunpeng Sacred Body, would she have needed to come in person? Couldn’t she have sent someone else, like one of those two elders?"

"She wanted to bargain with me," said Su Han.

"Bargain?"

Smiling, Nangong Yu said, "Sect Master Su, oh Sect Master Su, you are naively adorable. Do you realize how much it costs to rush here from the Central Domain to Yuanshan County? Do you actually think it’s at least ten million Spirit Stones like Yun Qianqian said? I can tell you it’s at least two hundred million Low-Grade Spirit Stones!"

"If it’s a round trip, it takes at least four hundred million Low-Grade Spirit Stones!"

Nangong Yu added, "And Yun Qianqian, making the trip twice, equals an expenditure of at least eight hundred million Spirit Stones. Tell me, even if you were to bargain, could you make back those eight hundred million Low-Grade Spirit Stones?"

Hearing this, Su Han was stunned.

Their conversation was through transmitted voices, so others couldn’t hear it. If Nangong Yu hadn’t explained it this way today, Su Han would never have thought about it from that perspective.

He had always believed that Yun Qianqian was just a friend, and a good friend at that. Although she was beautiful and her figure unparalleled, Su Han never considered her as a woman.

And upon considering their past interactions, there hardly seemed to be any particularly intimate contact. How could Yun Qianqian possibly have taken an interest in him?

With everything he had at the moment, Su Han felt he probably didn’t have the charm to make every woman like him.

"All this is sheer nonsense."

Shaking his head, Su Han flashed a grin with bared teeth at Nangong Yu, "So the Young Palace of Jade, do you like me too?"

"Yes, why don’t you marry me?" Nangong Yu suddenly showed a shy expression.

"Get lost."

With a sweep of his sleeve, Su Han said, "Focus on the auction and stop leading me astray with your nonsense."

With a delicate snort, Nangong Yu was not upset, "Anyway, I think that’s the case. Believe it or not, it’s up to you."

Su Han didn’t speak, but his mind was pondering.

...

Meanwhile, in VIP room number one next to where Su Han and the others were sitting, Yun Congcong, Song Mingshu, and their party were seated.

Behind them, stood no less than a thousand people, a small part of whom were from Myriad Treasures Pavilion; the rest belonged to the Song Family.

The Song Family’s influence was also immense, traceable back tens of thousands of years, even up to a hundred thousand years, on par with the Ye and Ling families, and their depth of heritage was not too far off from that of a Super Sect.

It was clear to see why the heiress of Myriad Treasures Pavilion would not marry a Young Master from a minor family.

At this moment, Yun Congcong maintained a calm demeanor, staring at Yun Qianqian on the stage, yet there was a hint of coldness in her eyes.

"Have you prepared everything for that plan?" Yun Congcong suddenly asked through a transmitted message.

She, who now lacked the bewitching aura she emanated in public, seemed instead ice-cold all over, like a venomous snake.

"Almost there."

Song Mingshu nodded, "As long as she dares to participate in the Sect competition, her death is certain. It’s a pity though, such a beauty is about to fall."

Yun Congcong abruptly turned her head, her eyes full of piercing cold.

Song Mingshu gave an awkward smile, and then hastily added, "But before that, we can’t let her have it easy. I’ve already investigated the items for this auction. This is her first time hosting a major auction, and it will also be her last, so I must make sure she enjoys herself."

Yun Congcong did not respond, the icy coldness in her eyes becoming even more intense.

...

"Ladies and gentlemen."

On the stage, Yun Qianqian took a deep breath, her gaze sweeping across the auction house. When her eyes landed on Su Han in VIP room number two, she briefly paused before putting on a professional smile.

"This auction has been meticulously prepared by Qianqian, and I believe the items will not disappoint everyone."

The room fell silent, seemingly in anticipation of Yun Qianqian’s next words.

"I know you all can’t wait, and I won’t keep you in suspense. Let’s start with the first item up for auction," she stated.

As she finished speaking, Yun Qianqian waved her hand, and immediately, an illusory image appeared beside her.

The illusion was of a tray covered by a red cloth, which Yun Qianqian gripped and pulled down in a swift movement.

"Heart-Destroying Beast Incarnation!"

Yun Qianqian announced with a smile, "This beast is a Sixth Order Demon Beast, renowned for its attack power. Even as just a Spirit Split, it is incredibly powerful. Should one bring this item to compete in the Sect competitions, or even the Holy Domain of the Demon Immortal, it would greatly increase their chances."

"Heart-Destroying Beast Incarnation?"

"Damn, Myriad Treasures Pavilion can actually get a hold of such treasures?"

"Indeed, the Heart-Destroying Beast is a Sixth Order Demon Beast, comparable to a Dragon Emperor Realm, terrifyingly powerful!"

"Wonder which powerhouse captured this Heart-Destroying Beast’s Spirit Split and brought it here for auction."

Hearing the commotion below and seeing the avid interest on many cultivators’ faces, Yun Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief, then continued, "The Heart-Destroying Beast Incarnation, starting at ten billion Low-Grade Spirit Stones, with each bid not less than ten million. The auction starts now."

"Eleven billion!"

"Eleven billion one hundred million!"

"Eleven billion two hundred million!"

No sooner had Yun Qianqian’s words fallen than people began to bid in succession.

But as the bidding continued for a few rounds, a discordant voice suddenly rang out.

"This Heart-Destroying Beast Incarnation indeed possesses formidable strength, but it can only launch one attack which is to self-destruct. Isn’t the starting price of ten billion Spirit Stones a bit steep?"
