"Young lady is it your first time in Sacred Pill City"
Zi Yan was gleefully wandering from stall to stall her sweet laughter bringing life to the area forming a beautiful scenery all on her own
Hun Miesheng watched the cheerful scene and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his lips
This was after all the last peaceful moment this city would see
A voice suddenly rang beside Zi Yan's ear
She looked at the person blocking her path her expression dimming slightly
"Hey you're in my way"
Her eyes showed annoyance and her pouty appearance made her look even more adorable
Truly a rare beauty
Song Qing's eyes flashed with a subtle heat after years of chasing the Cao Clan's seductive young mistress without success he now found this girl even more appealing
If he could have her then that other one could be tossed aside
"I am Song Qing disciple of the Grand Elder of the Pill Tower if you don't mind I could show you around Sacred Pill City"
As he spoke he reached for her hand
"Leave"
A loud sound echoed through the street as Song Qing's body was sent flying like a broken kite smashing into a wall on the roadside
The onlookers froze in disbelief their mouths twitching
Such a pure and direct girl
Blood trickled from Song Qing's lips as he slowly stood up
Zi Yan giggled raising her tiny fist toward Hun Miesheng as if awaiting praise like a child
Hun Miesheng watched with amusement to him this was just childish play
"Brother can we go look over there something seems to be drawing me"
Zi Yan pointed toward a grand building not far away her tone uncertain
Hun Miesheng paused
On the building were six words
Sacred Pill City Auction House
Zi Yan carried the bloodline of the Ancient Void Dragon she had a natural affinity for sensing rare treasures and herbs
Perhaps there really was something of value there
He nodded pulling Zi Yan along toward the auction house
He carried little gold but that did not matter
If he wanted something he would simply take it
In half a day this city would become a ruin anyway
"Young master please wait"
A gentle voice called out again this one delicate soft and flirtatious enough to stir any man's heart
A woman stepped into their path her narrow eyes and delicate features giving her an enchanting presence her lazy posture and lifted lips oozed charm
"Witch"
Zi Yan crossed her arms and snorted softly
Cao Ying felt a strange impulse rising within her when she saw Hun Miesheng unlike the others he seemed different a man she wanted to conquer
Watching him fall under her spell would be her pleasure
"Young master heading to the auction house"
"Care to go together"
Her voice was sweet and tempting her soul power silently reaching out to touch Hun Miesheng's soul
Soul Charm Technique
"An amusing attempt"
"Too bad I am not interested"
Hun Miesheng gave a devilish smile sliding his finger across her cheek as he led Zi Yan away
Cao Ying's face turned pale as she suddenly coughed out blood
She clutched her head groaning in pain
System notification villain points plus one thousand
Hun Miesheng shook his head
To think a soul force at mere Mortal Peak level dared to charm him
He had not even retaliated and she was already half crippled
Her soul would deteriorate and within ten days she would become a fool
"Brother is a lecher"
Zi Yan huffed angrily
Hun Miesheng chuckled leaning close to her ear "You guessed right do you want a reward"
Zi Yan blushed
"How do we get inside Do we queue"
Seeing the long line at the entrance Zi Yan was stunned
Queue
Hun Miesheng chuckled softly
A Dou Sheng waiting in line
Space twisted and the two vanished
Inside Heavenly Booth Number Nine were a man and a woman their intimate sounds echoing faintly
Buzz
A youth with a demonic aura and a girl in a purple dress suddenly appeared
The couple turned in shock just as black flames consumed them into nothingness
Zi Yan blinked feeling she had just witnessed something strange
Hun Miesheng spread his soul power over the entire auction house trying to find what Zi Yan had sensed
But aside from some junk pills and artifacts the most valuable item he saw was merely a high grade Earth level Dou Technique fragment
Disappointed he sat and waited for the auction to start
Many people had gathered for the auction including members of the Dan Bai Xin and Cao clans
Even Pill Tower sent people
Cao Ying was among them but her face was pale a Dou Zun guard scanning the hall protectively.
"Looking for you brother"
Zi Yan teased
Hun Miesheng looked utterly bored
If they wanted to die no need to rush
After a dull opening ceremony the auction began
Item after item was paraded out heating up the crowd.
But to Hun Miesheng none were worth his attention.
Zi Yan had even less interest
Soon it was time for the highlight item
Next the first of our finale items please take a close look
The voluptuous auctioneer giggled as excitement surged again in the hall
A black box covered with red cloth was presented guarded by two Dou Zun exuding immense pressure
The moment the box appeared
Hun Miesheng's eyes opened a flicker of joy flashing across his face
His soul had already scanned the box's contents
So it really was this
The cloth lifted revealing a complex black map
Jinglian Demon Flame Fragment Map
After verification this appears to be a remnant of an ancient relic map
Its value should be obvious
Starting price five million gold coins
Place your bids
The hall erupted in whispers
Five million gold coins
What if it was just a random map What if the ruins were never found Was it worth it
Just as everyone hesitated a voice rang coldly
"I want that map"
The auction house was relieved at least it would be sold
But then
"However I only have one gold coin"
