Lin Ziyi got back to his feet and pointed at the unconscious Sharuǐ.

"I don't blame you. You were merely bewitched by that bitch. But now, I want her to suffer a fate worse than death!"

Seeing the chill flash through the young man's eyes, Yang Bingchun could not help but shudder.

The next moment, he cautiously asked, "How would you like her to suffer a fate worse than death, sir?"

Lin Ziyi looked at Sharuǐ, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"Take away the thing she is proudest of. I'm sure that would hurt her more than death!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Bingchun turned to look at Sharuǐ. His gaze swept across her seductive body before suddenly settling on her chest!

Without question, the thing this woman was proudest of was her ample bosom.

If she lost her bosom, she would surely suffer a fate worse than death!

With that thought, Yang Bingchun suddenly drew a dagger from his waist and rose to walk toward Sharuǐ.

He crouched down, and the cold gleam in his hand swept across Sharuǐ's body!

In an instant, the towering peaks she had been so proud of were flattened amid a spray of blood!!

Seeing Yang Bingchun's vicious methods, Lin Ziyi turned away expressionlessly.

"Take her away. Don't come disturb us again."

Hearing this, Yang Bingchun felt as though he had been granted a pardon. He hurriedly carried the blood-soaked woman out of the room!

"Lingling, clean up the room." Smelling the blood in the air, Lin Ziyi sat back down on the sofa.

Tushan Lingling circulated her Soul Power, instantly vaporizing the blood on the floor into nothingness...

After finishing, she lightly returned to Lin Ziyi's side, sat down, and rested her head against his shoulder once more.

Her master was incredible!

Without shedding a drop of his own blood, he had thoroughly taught that foul-mouthed woman a lesson without even dirtying his hands.

But her master was still too kind... For a lowly woman like that, he should not have left her alive!

As Tushan Lingling thought this, Lin Ziyi had already turned his attention back to the auction.

The thirty-thousand-year soul bone had just been sold, and the next auction item had already been displayed.

"This item is called the Mystic Ice Sacred Armor. Mysterious gold shimmers, ice armor covers the body! It is the masterpiece passed down by the divine craftsman Lou Gao!

"Worn on the body, this armor keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer, while not hindering your movements in the slightest, meow~

"Most importantly, it can withstand three direct attacks from the soul skills of an ordinary Titled Douluo! It is a rare peerless treasure!

"The starting bid is 50 Gold Soul Coins! Each increase must be no less than 25 Gold Soul Coins!

"Honored guests, please place your bids!"

As soon as the sexy catgirl finished her introduction, someone in the private rooms on the Silver floor immediately bid 100 Gold Soul Coins!

Once that price was announced, all the bidders on the Bronze floor... the first floor, fell silent.

After all, none of them possessed more than 100 Gold Soul Coins!

Very quickly, the bidding reached 200 Gold Soul Coins, and the people on the Silver floor gradually fell quiet as well.

Just then, the catgirl suddenly noticed the number "250" appear on the screen for private room number nine on the Gold floor.

The catgirl's vertical pupils flickered slightly as she announced the price with a smile.

"The distinguished guest in private room number nine on the Gold floor has bid 250 Gold Soul Coins. Is there anyone willing to offer more?"

Inside the private room, Tushan Lingling curiously took the remote-like object from Lin Ziyi's hand and played with it.

Meanwhile, all of Lin Ziyi's attention was fixed on the Mystic Ice Sacred Armor.

Not only because it could withstand three attacks from an ordinary Titled Douluo, but also because it was a work by the divine craftsman Lou Gao!

Whenever he recalled Lou Gao's tragic sacrifice for the Tang Sect's hidden weapons, Lin Ziyi felt deep regret.

Tang San clearly had the ability to make those Peerless Hidden Weapons himself.

Yet he exploited Lou Gao's interest in Peerless Hidden Weapons and his spirit of dedicating himself to art, luring him into becoming the necessary sacrifice for creating those Peerless Hidden Weapons.

Then he effortlessly and brazenly used the other man's creations himself... It was utterly shameful!

But now that Lin Ziyi had come to the Douluo Continent, he naturally had to ensure that such a regrettable thing would not happen again!

When he had the chance later, he would visit Lou Gao in Gengxin City of the Star Luo Empire and try to make him one of his own people!

The auction continued.

Just as Lin Ziyi expected, his bid of 250 was soon overtaken.

The price quickly rose to 300 Gold Soul Coins, and the big shots on the Diamond floor began bidding as well.

Lin Ziyi only had 389 Gold Soul Coins left. Once the price rose to 400 Gold Soul Coins, he completely lost the ability to compete.

Three hundred Gold Soul Coins was roughly equivalent to three million yuan from Lin Ziyi's previous life!

He had thought that such a sum would give him considerable purchasing power at this auction house.

But reality was this: when competing for truly valuable treasures, his three million was still nowhere near enough!

As expected, the poor could never imagine just how rich the truly wealthy were...

Next time, he needed to get more money from the system!

Thinking this, Lin Ziyi could not help but sigh.

He watched helplessly as this divine artifact was ultimately purchased by the occupant of private room number one on the Diamond floor for 1,100 Gold Soul Coins.

As for the items auctioned afterward, none of them interested Lin Ziyi, so he did not bid again.

Once the auction ended, he took Tushan Lingling and left the private room.

However, after taking only two steps, someone suddenly called out from behind him.

"Sir, please wait!"

Lin Ziyi turned around and saw a middle-aged man in a purple robe embroidered with pythons striding toward him, accompanied by two elderly men.

The man wore no cat-faced mask, clearly unafraid of his identity being exposed.

Lin Ziyi noticed that one of the elderly men behind him held an exquisite treasure chest, and he roughly guessed why they had come.

The middle-aged man carried an extraordinary air about him, something no ordinary commoner could possess, yet he lacked the arrogant rudeness of noble scions.

It was a majestic bearing unique to members of the imperial family.

Lin Ziyi responded blandly, "What is it?"

Not only did the middle-aged man show no displeasure at the young man's indifferent attitude, his gaze became even more respectful!

He discreetly glanced at the beautiful Fox Demon before smiling at Lin Ziyi.

"Greetings, sir. I am a major shareholder of this Meow Meow Auction House.

"I heard that someone downstairs offended the two of you earlier. We are truly terribly sorry!

"The owner is currently away, so I count as half an owner myself.

"To express our auction house's apologies, please accept this treasure as compensation for you both."

As he spoke, the middle-aged man took the ornate treasure chest, half a meter long and twenty centimeters wide, from the elderly man's hands and opened it with one hand.

In an instant, an icy aura that chilled one to the bone drifted out of the chest alongside white mist!

A suit of armor made from countless jade plates and emitting a faint blue glow appeared before them.

It was the divine artifact by Lou Gao that Lin Ziyi had been the only one to bid on but failed to obtain—the Mystic Ice Sacred Armor!!

A trace of surprise appeared in Lin Ziyi's eyes when he saw this treasure.

So the person in private room number one on the Diamond floor had actually been an insider from the auction house!

Sure enough, every auction house had this sort of shady practice!

Lin Ziyi felt that when he had the chance in the future, he could arrange similar shills at the Misty Auction House as well...

But at this moment, all his attention was focused on the divine artifact before him!

Just as the middle-aged man thought the young man would certainly accept his gift, the young man suddenly curled his lips into a smile and directly refused his goodwill!
