Zhao Wuji and the others felt the entire forest fall silent. They could even hear each other breathing.

Under the blazing sun of the Star Dou Great Forest, they felt as though they had fallen into an ice cellar. Their bodies turned cold, and their hearts pounded uncontrollably.

It was the terror brought by death.

Especially when the Couple of Peerless Dragon and Snake and their entire family lay neatly together just four or five meters away, their bodies still warm...

No way, no way. I'm still a pure virgin. I don't want to die! Oscar babbled frantically in his heart.

He looked at Dai Mubai with pleading eyes that said, Dai Laoda, think of something!

Dai Mubai merely rolled his eyes at him...

Is this something I can handle?

I'm panicking too, okay?!

If it weren't for hunting Soul Rings for you and Tang San, would I have ended up in this situation?

Are they going to silence us? The other party had killed the Couple of Peerless Dragon and Snake in this remote Star Dou Great Forest.

They were the only witnesses. If they died too, no one would ever know...

A simple deduction surfaced in Zhu Zhuqing's mind. Though she knew the opponent was a Titled Douluo and that fighting would be no different from a moth flying into a flame...

The habits she had developed since childhood kept her from accepting her fate. Even if she had to die, she would choose to fight to the death.

Her eyes remained fixed on Daji as she raised her combat stance to its peak!

Tang San swiftly began analyzing the situation. A Titled Douluo was his enemy; if she attacked, there was absolutely no chance of victory.

If the other party truly made a move, his best option would be to use the time Zhao Wuji and the others bought him to retreat.

That was the only way he might retain a sliver of hope for survival!!

The Mysterious Heaven Skill was already circulating rapidly within him. He was ready at any moment to use Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to flee. This was his only chance to stay alive.

He silently recited in his heart:

Teacher, partners, rest assured. If I survive, I will definitely avenge you.

Seeing everyone's suppressed emotions, the fear written all over their faces, and their eyes all fixed on him...

Zhao Wuji knew they were asking him for help.

But he was panicking too.

He truly hoped this was some joke Heaven was playing on him.

If life could be loaded from an earlier save...

He would definitely pin Tang San down. That little jinx—ever since he had come to the academy, Zhao Wuji had not had a moment of good luck.

First, he had been beaten black and blue by the Clear Sky Douluo. Did Old Zhao not have any dignity?

Over the years, he had helped Fatty Ma, Xiao Ao, and Dai Mubai hunt Soul Rings so many times, and every single time had been safe and smooth.

Why was it that the moment he hunted a Soul Ring for this little jinx, they first ran into the Titan Giant Ape...

And now they were in this damned situation...

Old Zhao was suffering inside!!!

Old Zhao could not even beat the Couple of Peerless Dragon and Snake. What could he do against a Titled Douluo?

Did anyone have any good ideas?

Waiting online!

Urgent!

With a sigh, Zhao Wuji braced himself and said, "Your Excellency, my name is Zhao Wuji. I am a teacher at Shrek Academy, and these children are all students of Shrek Academy."

"Mm, I know," Su Mu said indifferently.

"Has Shrek Academy become this famous?" Since the other party knew of them, Zhao Wuji looked up. Seeing Daji standing respectfully behind Su Mu, he instantly understood.

The string of earlier shocks had been too overwhelming, causing him to overlook this detail.

In his eyes, that young yet terrifying Titled Douluo was actually the servant of the man before him.

Yet this man showed no fluctuations of Soul Power at all. He looked completely ordinary.

That was impossible.

What sort of wealthy young master could have a Titled Douluo as a servant...

And such a beautiful, young Titled Douluo at that.

No!

Absolutely impossible!!!

How could an ordinary person possess a Titled Douluo servant? A guess instantly surfaced in Zhao Wuji's mind.

That man's cultivation must have reached an extreme level, allowing him to completely conceal his aura. Zhao Wuji was merely a Soul Sage, so naturally he could not sense it.

He turned toward Su Mu and lowered his posture to the utmost:

"Respected Your Excellency, we saw nothing. Please rest assured."

"Your Excellency?"

Su Mu corrected him, "I'm merely an ordinary person without a Martial Soul. Just call me Su Mu."

Someone who can have a Titled Douluo as a servant?

If you're an ordinary person, then we might as well dig a hole and bury ourselves...

"Yes, Your Excellency Su Mu..."

Su Mu: ...

At that moment, Ning Rongrong gathered her courage and stepped forward. "Greetings, Your Excellency Su Mu. I am Ning Rongrong of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

"As long as Your Excellency lets us leave, you will be a benefactor of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Should you have any orders in the future, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will certainly do everything in its power to fulfill them."

As she spoke, she summoned her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul to prove her identity to Su Mu.

Something about this situation seemed off...

Su Mu looked at the crowd. Every one of them wore a mournful expression, as though they were facing a great enemy.

Then, from the corner of his eye, he spotted the Couple of Peerless Dragon and Snake and their family lying neatly together.

He instantly understood.

Mm!

He could not blame them for this either...

Ahem...

Su Mu cleared his throat twice and explained, "I have an Auction Pavilion in Spirit City called the Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion."

"In roughly twenty-five days, it will hold its first auction. If you have time, you may come participate and bid on goods suitable for yourselves."

Then, with a flick of his right hand, white jade tokens flew toward the group.

"These are entry passes for the Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion. Only those holding a token may enter the Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion."

This...

Tang San and the others looked at the jade tokens in their hands. The front was engraved with the words Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion.

The back bore a carving of a nine-story pavilion.

They only felt that it was all a little unreal. He had spared them just to advertise?

Then he should have said so earlier!

Fortunately, he was not going to kill them to silence them!!

"Respected Your Excellency, please rest assured. We will definitely visit your Auction Pavilion when the time comes."

"Mm."

Su Mu nodded in satisfaction. "The Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion welcomes your visit."

"Your Excellency, shall we take our leave first?" Zhao Wuji asked cautiously.

"Mm."

Watching Zhao Wuji and the others depart, Su Mu pulled up the system panel.

Luck Value: 10000

Having money felt great. Now he could exchange for items in the shop and auction them directly!!

It turned out that when Su Mu obtained the Man Faced Demon Spider, the system had displayed a message.

"Congratulations, Host, for completing the hidden task: Obtain the Son of Destiny's Luck. Reward: Luck Value: 10000."

Though the system had not stated it outright, he made a guess.

In the original story, Tang San was undoubtedly the protagonist, blessed with immense luck.

Now that Su Mu had intercepted Tang San's first stroke of luck—the Man Faced Demon Spider—he had completed the hidden task.

After the first auction at the Auction Pavilion ended, he would take Daji for a stroll through Dugu Bo's medicinal garden and see whether he could complete another hidden task!!

And he had also distributed Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion entry tokens to Tang San and the others.

It would feel great to let Tang San watch someone else possess the Eight Spider Lances that should have been his.

"Daji, let's head back!"

"Yes, Master."
