"This class is so boring. Xiao Xuan and I are planning to go out and clear our heads. Besides, I'm looking for a Storage Soul Tool that suits me."
Li Jiutian smiled faintly and answered.
"A Soul Tool? The Great Enshrined should have one, right?" Xie Yue asked.
"Alas, the Soul Tool my master gave me can only store nonliving objects, and its storage space is pitifully small. I gave it to Xiao Xuan."
Li Jiutian shook his head helplessly.
"Xiao Tian, since none of the ordinary Soul Tools are good enough for you, why not try your luck at the Spirit City Auction House?"
Hu Liena said gently.
"That's right, the Spirit City Auction House! How did I not think of that?"
A thought struck Li Jiutian. He led Luo Zixuan toward the Spirit City Auction House.
"Nana, we need to step up our training too. We can't let Xiao Tian get too far ahead of us!"
Watching Li Jiutian and Luo Zixuan's retreating figures, Xie Yue said.
"Let's go. We'll do some mimicry training!"
Hu Liena came back to her senses and nodded.
The Spirit City Auction House.
It was considered the most luxurious auction house on the entire continent. Beautiful women were everywhere, and all the guests were people of great power and status.
When Li Jiutian and Luo Zixuan reached the entrance, they drew quite a few people's eyes.
A woman in a short black dress and a mask stood at the entrance to the auction house. Seeing the two of them arrive, she asked softly:
"Are you two here to take part in the auction?"
Li Jiutian smiled faintly. "That's right."
"To protect our customers' privacy and safety, please put on these masks."
After speaking, the female attendant handed Li Jiutian and Luo Zixuan black masks.
"Xiao Xuan, let's go!"
They put on their masks and were about to enter when Li Jiutian spotted a familiar figure.
A man with a fisherman's hat and a lecherous face was carrying a fair-skinned, beautiful female attendant on his back, hurrying toward the auction house exit.
Li Jiutian recognized him at a glance. It was Bu Le!
"Brother, why is that man acting so strangely?"
Luo Zixuan had noticed something was wrong too, and she spoke up.
"Xiao Xuan, he's a rotten man through and through. Who knows how many girls he's ruined?"
"In a moment, lure him to a deserted street corner, then let your big brother teach him a good lesson!"
Li Jiutian spoke softly.
"Leave it to me, Brother!"
Luo Zixuan's bright eyes shifted, and she headed toward Bu Le.
"This girl's skin is so soft and fair. I can't wait to devour you!"
Looking at the woman on his back, Bu Le let drool dribble from the corner of his mouth.
"Uncle, do you know of any nearby restaurants with good food?"
A sweet voice suddenly sounded behind Bu Le.
He turned around and was stunned. He immediately set down the auction house attendant he had been carrying.
Luo Zixuan was tall and slender, her dark hair loose down her back. Her long, snow-white legs were exposed to the air, and her whole bearing was noble and immaculate, like a princess of ice and snow.
In terms of looks, Luo Zixuan was far more beautiful than Xiao Wu, Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, or Bai Chenxiang. Only Qian Renxue had a slight edge over her.
"Little miss, your uncle knows a restaurant with the best food around. How about I take you there? I promise you'll be begging for more."
Bu Le's eyes were fixed on her. He wiped the drool from his mouth, then headed toward a deserted alley.
"Sure. Thank you, Uncle!"
Luo Zixuan smiled faintly and followed close behind Bu Le.
Bu Le glanced back at her, imagining the steamy scenes he would share with her later. A lecherous grin spread across his face.
"Hee hee... Hee hee hee... Hee hee hee hee hee! ... Heh heh heh!"
"Uncle, why are you giggling to yourself?"
Luo Zixuan asked, pretending to be puzzled. What a disgusting creep.
"Your uncle here just loves helping people!"
Bu Le suddenly stopped in a deserted alley and leered at Luo Zixuan.
Two men, one tall and one short, stood in the shadowy alley. They both had extremely lecherous faces. They were Bu Le's other two teammates.
"Good heavens, she's a rare beauty among rare beauties!"
"Bu Le, where did you find her?"
The two men swallowed and spoke, then came over to stand beside Bu Le.
"Heh heh, don't worry about where I found her. I'm going first!"
Bu Le said lecherously, then edged closer to Luo Zixuan.
"What are you going to do?"
Luo Zixuan's face turned cold as she spoke.
"Heh heh, little miss, we're going to give you something tasty!"
After saying that, Bu Le lunged at Luo Zixuan, trying to knock her down.
"Brother!" Luo Zixuan shouted.
"You're asking for death!"
Just as Bu Le's filthy hand was about to touch the snow-white skin on Luo Zixuan's chest, there was a sharp SWISH! His hand was severed on the spot!
"Ah! My hand!"
Clutching his right hand, Bu Le writhed on the ground in agony.
Li Jiutian descended from the sky and stood in front of Luo Zixuan.
"Brother, don't go easy on them. They almost took advantage of me."
Luo Zixuan said coldly.
"Xiao Xuan, don't you know what I'm like by now?"
"These scum aren't even worth calling enemies. Do you think I'd let them live?"
Li Jiutian smiled faintly and walked toward the three men.
"Y-you brat! Who are you?"
The other two were terrified by Li Jiutian's frightening aura and instinctively backed away.
"Damn it, what are you scared of? This brat's at most a Soul Ancestor. Are the two of us Soul Emperors supposed to be afraid of him?"
The tall man snapped out of it, smacked the short man on the head, and said.
"That's right! Damn it, this brat almost fooled us!"
After speaking, the short man released his Martial Soul, a cleaver.
The tall man spread his wings and flew into the sky.
"You little punk, I'm going to butcher you, then take that little beauty behind you and sell her to the Drunken Spring Pavilion!"
Bu Le said viciously. He hastily bandaged his right arm, then released his Martial Soul.
"With trash like these, we're looking at one Soul King and two Soul Emperors?"
"Brother, do you want me to help?"
Luo Zixuan exclaimed.
"Xiao Xuan, getting rid of these three will only take a few minutes. I'm not worried about them in the slightest."
"One lousy cleaver, one stupid bird, and one..."
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Li Jiutian's mouth. As he spoke, his Soul Rings dropped into place around him: purple, purple, black, black.
"How is that possible? How did he absorb his Soul Rings?"
The short man exclaimed.
"So what if his Soul Ring Configuration is terrifying? There are three of us—one Soul King and two Soul Emperors. Are we really supposed to fear a puny Soul Ancestor?"
After speaking, Bu Le charged at Li Jiutian first!
"Let's give it everything we've got! If the three of us lose, we'll be disgraced for the rest of our lives!"
Green Soul Power enveloped the cleaver in the short man's hands. The blade then swelled to over six meters tall, and he swung it down at Li Jiutian with a fierce WHAM!

"Like moths flying into the flames—you're bringing about your own destruction!"
"Fourth Soul Skill, Blazing Sun Cross Slash!"
Watching the pair of ghost claws coming straight at him, Li Jiutian said coldly. A flaming cross-shaped slash appeared in front of him, then shot toward Bu Le!
BANG!
The ghost claws shattered instantly, and the cross-shaped slash cut through Bu Le's body.
"How... one strike..."
Before Bu Le could finish speaking, his body split into four. Golden flames then consumed his corpse, reducing it to ashes that scattered on the wind.
"Let's see you dodge this!"
The short man said viciously. The giant cleaver was already right in front of Li Jiutian, about to come down on his head.
"Hello there, you big dumb bird!"
"Third Soul Skill, Air Cut!"
Li Jiutian looked upward, and an explosive sonic boom rang through the air.
At that moment, the tall man appeared in the spot where Li Jiutian had been standing.
"Not good! Move!"
The short man shouted, but he could no longer stop his cleaver.
SWISH!
By the time the tall man realized what was happening, he had already been split in two, reduced to a cold corpse.
"H-how could this happen?!"
"Who are you?!"
The short man cried out in panic.
"I'm the Grim Reaper, here to claim your lives!"
"You want to know my name? You're not worthy!"
Li Jiutian was like a demon as he slowly advanced on the short man.
"Damn it, I'll fight you to the death!"
Seeing no hope of escape, the short man enlarged his cleaver to over eight meters and swung it down at Li Jiutian with a fierce WHAM!
"Too slow!"
