"I've met Shi Yi. In the future, he might rebuild his cultivation and bring every realm to perfection.
But Shi Yi as he is now is far too superficial in every realm compared to his talent. Among those of the same realm, he falls far short of Xiao Hao...
I'm leaving. It's been a long time since I came to the imperial capital. I might as well have a look around."
He turned and used Shrinking Earth to an Inch, vanishing from before everyone in a single step. He left behind a crowd with expressions of regret, resolve, shock, and delight.
"As expected of the Ruthless one from the rumors, who killed more than a dozen Venerables working together, then traveled through the major factions with a man and a woman, threatening them for sacred medicines.
That Bear Boy following him was actually the former born Supreme."
A week later, Shi Yongheng arrived at a magnificent, glittering establishment.
This place was extravagantly luxurious. Those who came here were either rich or noble; there were practically no poor people around.
"I heard that an astonishing treasure appeared in the auction house, but yesterday it was bought by that young prodigy from Demon Spirit Lake." As soon as they entered, Shi Yongheng heard people nearby discussing it.
"I heard today's auction is even more impressive than yesterday's. Not only is that young master from Demon Spirit Lake here, but many prodigies from other regions have come as well," passersby discussed.
"Other regions?" Shi Yongheng stepped closer to ask, inexplicably recalling the two women who had intercepted him on the road.
"Oh, young master, are you interested in our auction house as well? There's even a Supreme Treasure today." Someone from the auction house noticed Shi Yongheng's extraordinary bearing and approached him directly.
