Qian Renxue! Ninety-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber! The More People Who Don't Recognize Its Value, the Better!

Heaven Dou Imperial City region, Crown Prince Mansion.

"Young Master, a pill called the Universal Antidote Pill has appeared at the Heaven Dou Auction Firm. It claims to cure all poisons in the world. Even a Frost Brilliance Deer poisoned by a thousand-year Nine-Colored Centipede was saved. The Heaven Dou Auction Firm is one of your subordinate forces, so the news should be true. Otherwise, such extensive publicity would only damage their reputation."

A figure appeared in the dark corner of the room. The low, magnetic voice came from his mouth.

"You're worried that the appearance of this Universal Antidote Pill will disrupt our plans?" A pleasant female voice sounded from the immaculate bed.

To outsiders, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe was a man, yet a woman's voice now came from him. Naturally, something was wrong.

Because the current Crown Prince Xue Qinghe had long since ceased to be the real Xue Qinghe.

He was now Qian Renxue, the Young Master of Spirit Hall, in disguise. She had done so to seize power and usurp the throne, taking the seat of the Heaven Dou Empire at the right moment and fulfilling Spirit Hall's grand ambition of establishing the Spirit Hall Empire!

After a moment of silence, the figure in the darkness nodded. "Yes, Young Master. We should capture the person capable of making this pill and make him join Spirit Hall—or kill him, just in case."

"Only the Breaking Clan on the continent makes pills. If this pill truly had such effects, there would be no need for such grand publicity. As for the Nine-Colored Centipede poison, it is probably just a lie fabricated to make this pill seem powerful. After selling it, they could secretly poison the buyer. That person would surely take it immediately. I saw through such a petty trick at a glance. There is no need to bother with it."

"Enough. Leave. I want to sleep."

A trace of disdain showed in Qian Renxue's words. "A mere pill is not enough to make Spirit Hall worry."

"Understood!" As soon as he spoke, the figure vanished.

Qian Renxue did not take the matter to heart at all.

Lying in bed was one of the rare times in her day when she could find peace and enjoy her own world. She cherished it greatly.

Suddenly, a blush appeared on her face, and a very soft piece of cotton cloth appeared in her jade-like hand.

If Li Fei had been here, he would certainly have recognized it. Wasn't this a sanitary napkin produced by the Li Family?

That was right. One of her subordinates had bought it earlier from a traveling merchant.

It was said to be very convenient for women during their periods. At first, she had been skeptical, but after using it, she had completely fallen in love with it.

This little thing was truly convenient.

It was easy to carry and soft and comfortable.

Its workmanship was also top-notch.

"The more good things like this, the better. It's just a pity that they haven't become widespread in Heaven Dou City yet. If I could find the person who makes these sanitary napkins and cooperate with them long-term, or even buy the business outright for my own use, I wouldn't have to worry about running out in the future. Besides this, there are all sorts of other useful things. I wonder if that woman has used them. When I have time to go back this time, I'll bring some for her to try."

Qian Renxue carefully put away the sanitary napkin as though it were a treasure, afraid of losing it.

After all, only a girl like her understood the suffering of those days.

Even becoming a Soul Master could not prevent it.

Perhaps only after becoming the Angel God could she avoid such embarrassing matters.

And the woman she spoke of was naturally her biological mother, the current Pope, Bibi Dong!

Li Fei had no idea that Qian Renxue's disdain had allowed him to escape a disaster.

As the publicity spread, many nobles, wealthy merchants, and political bigwigs arrived.

Li Fei, meanwhile, was arranged in a VIP room to watch the auction begin.

With the host's announcement, item after item appeared before everyone's eyes.

Time gradually passed.

Not a single one of those items caught Li Fei's eye.

But the next item made his eyes light up.

On the screen, as the host lifted the red cloth, something familiar entered Li Fei's sight.

The thing carried a fishy stench.

By all rights, something like this was not qualified to enter a top-tier place like the Heaven Dou Auction Firm.

But its age gave it that qualification!

"Whale Rubber! And it isn't young!"

In the VIP room, Li Fei's eyes lit up.

That was right. This foul-smelling thing was the Whale Rubber everyone knew!

"Whale Rubber?"

"This thing can appear here too?"

"Does the Heaven Dou Auction Firm have nothing else to auction?"

"I came here specifically for that Universal Antidote Pill! Don't waste our time. Skip it already!"

"Tsk tsk, Whale Rubber is good stuff."

Among the crowd, some thought it was useless, while others thought it was useful.

After all, everyone knew that Whale Rubber could enhance bedroom performance. Other than that effect, no one knew what else it was good for.

However, some people had low cultivation, had slept with too many women, and suffered declining bodily functions. They desperately needed Whale Rubber to strengthen themselves and restore their former vigor!

Thus, in their eyes, this was low-grade merchandise, unworthy of appearing in a top-tier auction house.

"Don't be hasty. This is no ordinary piece of Whale Rubber. It came from a Ninety-Thousand-Year Deep Sea Blue Whale. In other words, this is a piece of Ninety-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber!"

The host spoke.

As for how humans had obtained Whale Rubber from a ninety-thousand-year Sea Soul Beast, there was no need to explain. The world was vast, and all sorts of bizarre things could happen.

"Ninety-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber!"

"My heavens, how nourishing must that be!"

"With such a terrifying age, no wonder it can be auctioned here. I have no objections now. I'm even a little excited. My several thousand beloved consorts are still waiting for me to dote on them~"

The moment they heard that it was ninety thousand years old, everyone became excited.

In the VIP room, after hearing the age of the Whale Rubber, Li Fei also sucked in a sharp breath, his heart filled with shock. "Hiss, it's actually Ninety-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber. My Li Family spent so many years gathering it everywhere, yet the highest we found was only fifty thousand years old. I never expected a ninety-thousand-year piece to appear here. As expected, Heaven Dou Imperial City is different!"

"Get it! I have to get it!"

"People nowadays are so ignorant. They only know that Whale Rubber is an aphrodisiac and have no idea it can strengthen the body. Once the price reaches a certain point, no one will keep bidding. But I must get it. Ninety-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber can bring an enormous improvement to my physique, and the upper limit of what my Fourth Soul Ring can absorb will be even higher!"

Li Fei's gaze burned as he made up his mind. He had to obtain it.

This was the advantage of exploiting the information gap between two eras, along with his foreknowledge.

This was where his advantage lay!

Very soon, the auction began.

The crowd frantically raised their bids.

The price soon reached one hundred ninety thousand Gold Soul Coins!

"Although this thing is ninety thousand years old, it can only serve as an aphrodisiac, so its price cannot rise any further. What a pity. If it were something else, it would be worth far more than this." The host looked at the Ninety-Thousand-Year Whale Rubber on the table and sighed inwardly.

"One hundred ninety thousand Gold Soul Coins, going once!"

"One hundred ninety thousand Gold Soul Coins, going twice!"

"One hundred ninety thousand Gold Soul Coins, going thr—"

Just as the host was about to finish, a voice rang out.

"Two hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins!"
