Inside the private room, Ning Rongrong finally broke free from her father's hand.

Her eyes were red, her voice suppressed but filled with a roar: "How could you treat Xiao Wu like this!"

"She's my best friend!"

Ning Fengzhi's expression was solemn, his tone low and clear: "Rongrong, you know very well what a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beast means."

He leaned forward slightly, his voice carrying an irresistible allure: "If Xiao Wu could sacrifice herself to you... what would a Hundred Thousand Year fourth ring represent?"

"At that time, all the geniuses on the continent will look up to your back."

He gently stroked his daughter's hair, his movements tender, but his words were decisive and brooks no argument.

Ning Rongrong froze completely.

Even she found it hard to resist the ultimate power of a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring.

The key was that she also harbored some different feelings for Third Brother... and Xiao Wu was always in the way.

That figure was indeed a bit of an eyesore.

She bit her lip tightly, her heart seemingly engaged in an Inner Struggle.

"No... Xiao Wu is my best friend... how can I..."

Her voice grew softer and softer, barely audible, but in her heart, she saw the peerless might of Tang San in his Previous Life after obtaining the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring.

She also yearned for such powerful strength!

She no longer wanted to watch helplessly as important people fell before her, while she was powerless!

What's more... even if Xiao Wu sacrificed herself, wouldn't she be able to revive her once she became a god in the future?

Once this thought sprouted, it spread wildly.

She secretly glanced at the viewing platform below. Xiao Wu's face was still beaming with unsuspecting happiness.

Ning Rongrong's eyes suddenly became deep and dangerous, but only for a moment before returning to their usual innocent and harmless appearance.

Ning Fengzhi knew his daughter too well. She was by no means as simple and naive as she appeared on the surface, otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to fool those Martial Soul Hall Enshrined Elders.

That's why when Su Ling had his accident, Ning Rongrong was the first person he suspected.

At this moment, seeing all the changes in her expression, Ning Fengzhi understood.

At the same time, in another private room not far from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Dugu Bo successfully bid for the second Soul Enlightenment Pill at the sky-high price of 3.8 Million Gold Soul Coins.

Intimidated by the Poison Douluo's fearsome reputation, no one present dared to compete with him.

As soon as the pill reached her hands, Dugu Yan impatiently swallowed it.

Having been repeatedly defeated by Tang San and then intimidated by Su Ling's terrifying killing intent, her desire for strength had reached its peak.

"Grandfather, I feel..." As soon as the pill entered her belly, Dugu Yan's body began to tremble violently.

A gentle yet immense energy surged and flowed within her body.

Her skin gradually took on a strange jade-green luster, and her already enchanting snake eyes completely narrowed into thin slits, flashing with a heart-pounding cold light.

"Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor... the Martial Soul quality has truly evolved!" Dugu Bo's pupils contracted sharply, and he quickly stepped forward to check on his granddaughter's condition.

Although the Martial Soul Evolution was a cause for joy, he couldn't hide the worry in his eyes.

Whether it was the Jade Phosphorous Serpent or the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor, the self-reversing poison was the greatest nightmare. The inheritor would have to endure the pain of poison erosion throughout their life.

However, when his soul power probed Dugu Yan's meridians, the worry on his face was instantly replaced by extreme shock!

The toxins that had accumulated for years, eroding her life, were actually being rapidly purified!

This pill actually had the effect of purifying toxins!

Although it still couldn't fundamentally solve the problem of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul constantly accumulating new toxins, at least for now, the urgent crisis threatening his granddaughter's life had been alleviated!

"Who provided this pill?! Who is the refiner?! Tell me quickly!"

Dugu Bo, looking like a madman, grabbed the Auction House Manager by the collar and asked hoarsely, his eyes ferocious and anxious.

The deadly poison that had plagued him his entire life, and even endangered his granddaughter's life, had shown a glimmer of hope for a solution. How could he not be ecstatic!

At the same time, in another Imperial Family private room.

Prince Xue Xing narrowed his eyes, playing with the wine glass in his hand, and said playfully, "What a good thing... I'll buy it back for my disciples to use. Perhaps it can cultivate a few good seedlings. I'll offer 2.9 Million."

Prince Xue Beng's expression flickered, and he finally slumped back into his chair, muttering, "Damn it, a bunch of lunatics! So expensive!"

"Forget it, forget it. I'll save my money and go to Drunken Moon Tower for some fun..."

He said this, but his heart yearned for it.

However, not only could he not afford that much money, but even if he could, his Imperial Brother would never let him off.

How could a well-known "waste" prince possess such a huge sum of money? This would be no different from exposing his own shortcomings.

He could only hope that Prince Xue Xing could bid for one, and perhaps share it with him.

Tang Hao, hidden in the darkest corner of the venue, his gaze swept over the pills on stage that drove the crowd wild, without the slightest ripple.

But when his eyes fell upon his son Tang San's incredibly eager yet forcefully suppressed gaze, his calloused hand, accustomed to wielding the Great Hammer, trembled almost imperceptibly.

As a father, how could he not want to give his son the best resources?

But he was currently short of funds, even struggling to maintain his own basic expenses.

His gaze swept grimly over the private boxes where the pills had been purchased, a cold sneer in his heart. Perhaps... "taking" them would be more practical.

The auction for the Soul Enlightenment Pills lasted for nearly an hour, the atmosphere extremely fervent.

The nine pills were finally divided among various parties at sky-high prices ranging from 2.8 Million to 3.8 Million each.

Ning Fengzhi purchased three, Bishop Salas of the Martial Soul Hall bid for two, Prince Xue Xing, Dugu Bo, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect each obtained one. The last pill was acquired by a Mysterious Wanderer for 3.5 Million Gold Soul Coins.

The atmosphere of the entire auction hall was pushed to its climax.

Only within the royal exclusive private box was the atmosphere as oppressive as an ice cellar.

Qian Renxue stared intently at Su Ling's hand resting on the crystal windowsill, noticing his fingers growing paler and weaker.

The bloodstain that had spread on the back of his black robe seemed to have expanded a bit more.

Her heart felt as if it were being fiercely clenched, throbbing with waves of pain.

She had resisted the urge to step forward again several times, but was each time stopped by the bone-chilling, distant, and wary gaze in Su Ling's eyes.

Su Ling looked at Qian Renxue, who was trying to approach again, and took two cautious steps back, his back almost against the cold wall.

"As expected, boys need to protect themselves when they go out..." he muttered inwardly, filled with vigilance towards this persistent "Blondie".

Thinking that this person in front of him might have already... even bigger than his own... for Ning Rongrong...

Su Ling felt his vision darken, and instinctively tried to shrink back into the corner, but Qian Renxue stepped forward and firmly grasped his wrist.
