"Big Brother... Imperial Brother! You mean that after the Clear Sky Sect kept Bibi Dong there for so many years, the pregnancy and childbirth process left Bibi Dong infertile? Bibi Dong might already be unable to have children now? In other words, the Clear Sky Sect is committing fraud?!
"So, simply put, this Bibi Dong cannot possibly bear children at all. Otherwise, the Clear Sky Sect would never have put Bibi Dong up for sale (#ﾟДﾟ)?"
At that moment, Prince Xue Xing could hardly believe that the Clear Sky Sect dared pull something like this. This was openly deceiving a Heaven Dou Empire auction house. Commercial fraud came with consequences, didn't it?!
If they had merely deceived some ordinary poor people or small, insignificant factions—such as little families with only Soul Ancestors or mercenary groups with Soul Kings—it might have been tolerable.
