Volume One, Chapter Seventy-One
Fengshen Sha chuckled softly. "Do you know what you're doing?"
Ziyan said coldly, "Of course I do!"
Fengshen Sha smiled. "Then do you know who you're speaking to like this?"
Ziyan said disdainfully, "I don't know who you are, but I know he's a coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong. As a man, he doesn't have a shred of backbone. I'm also curious how women as beautiful as you could follow someone like him."
Fengshen Sha did not answer Ziyan's question. She merely chuckled. "I hope you won't regret this!"
Ziyan wore a puzzled expression, not understanding what Fengshen Sha meant.
Zhao Fu said with a smile, "Yes, I'm just a good-for-nothing, so I don't dare compete with you."
Upon hearing this, no one wanted to spare him another glance. Such a person was not worth looking at; merely seeing him made them feel ashamed. Could there really be such a worthless person? Not only had he suffered such humiliation, he had even admitted that he was trash. What was wrong with the women beside him, following a man like this? What a waste.
Zhao Fu did not continue bidding, and neither did anyone else. In the end, Hongyan obtained the sword for six hundred and twenty million.
Having won the sword, Hongyan finally let out the breath she had been holding. Her mission this time had been to obtain this sword.

Bai Shiyue introduced it, "This bronze fragment was accidentally acquired by our merchant group. Do not let its plain appearance fool you. Even someone at the Emperor Heaven Realm cannot destroy it.
