Douluo Reborn: The Silver Dragon Returns, but Regrets End

Chapter 224: Brushing the Face of the Ancient East Wind
Qiangu Dongfeng once asked Gu Yuena with concern what reward she wanted. After all, the importance of her research to the Spiritual Pagoda was simply immeasurable. She was gifted, so how could he not win her over? Moreover, Qiangu Dongfeng was looking forward to her research being able to reach a higher level, so that he would be closer to his grand goal.

His ambitions go far beyond this! After removing the biggest obstacle, Shrek Academy, it may only be a matter of time before he controls the entire federation through the parliament.

And by then, it would not be as simple as just controlling Douluo Continent. Qiangu Dongfeng firmly believed that even Xingluo Continent and Douling Continent, even without war, would also become areas controlled by the Spirit Transfer Tower, and then the entire Douluo Star would be under its control.

Therefore, in Qiangu Dongfeng's eyes, Gu Yue at this moment was undoubtedly the most precious treasure of the entire Spiritual Transmission Tower. He was afraid of dropping it if he held it in his hands, and afraid of melting it if he held it in his mouth.

Gu Yue originally didn't want anything until Qiangu Dongfeng told her about the recent auction at Tiandou Auction House and revealed to her the Heart of the Ice God, which successfully attracted her attention.

Although he only looked at the picture, Gu Yue quickly told Qiangu Dongfeng that he must get the Ice God's Heart because as long as he got it, his spiritual level would be able to break through to the Spirit Realm, and thus he could be promoted to the Titled Douluo level in just one year.

Upon hearing the news, Qiangu Dongfeng was overjoyed and immediately brought Gu Yueqian here without hesitation.

He spared no effort to cultivate Gu Yue, naturally he had selfish motives. Among the four great Spirit Envoys in the Spirit Envoy Tower, besides Gu Yue, the second youngest Spirit Envoy was named Qiangu Zhangting, who was his grandson, now 31 years old and already a Titled Douluo.

Qiangu Zhangting can be said to be the most outstanding talent of the Qiangu family in recent years. He is also the one that Qiangu Dongfeng strives to cultivate as the future successor.

Ever since the Qiangu family came to power, after so many years of development, the election system of the Spirit Pagoda has actually long been in name only and is completely controlled by the Qiangu family.

Qiangu Zhangting was trained by Qiangu Dongfeng as his future successor and is his eldest grandson.

This Qiangu Zhangting is really excellent, and he has shown extraordinary talent since he was young. When he became a Titled Douluo at the age of 28, he was promoted to one of the four great Spirit Transmission Envoys of the Spirit Transmission Tower.

For three years, Qiangu Zhangting had never married and devoted all his energy to cultivation. Until that year, he met Gu Yuena when she was 18 years old and fell in love with her at first sight.

Qiangu Dongfeng naturally wanted to bring them together, but was stopped by Leng Yaoju using the excuse that Gu Yue was still young.

And with Gu Yue being promoted to the position of Spiritual Envoy, no matter in terms of status, ability, talent, or appearance, in Qiangu Dongfeng's heart, this is undoubtedly the best candidate for his grandson's wife! No one would be more suitable than Gu Yuena.

Qiangu Zhangting had just come out of seclusion recently. In the past three years, he had made steady progress. At the age of 31, his cultivation had already reached the fourth level. With the unremitting support of the Spiritual Pagoda behind him, he was only one step away from the level of Super Douluo.

At the moment, Qiangu Zhangting is pursuing Gu Yue with all his might, hoping to win her favor.

Only when Gu Yue truly becomes Qiangu Zhangting's granddaughter-in-law, they can be considered a real family, and he can be completely relieved.

Otherwise, no matter how talented Gu Yue was, he would not dare to make such an extraordinary promotion. It would be bad if it affected the status of their Qiangu family in the future.

It was precisely because of this layer of guarantee that he dared to train Gu Yue so vigorously. Under such circumstances, how could Qiangu Dongfeng not lend a helping hand to his grandson?

Therefore, today, he brought Gu Yue with him, and was determined to get the Ice God's Heart at all costs. Because in the future, Gu Yue would be able to quickly enter the level of Titled Douluo, and with her talent, she and his grandson were a perfect match made in heaven, and would definitely be the mainstay supporting the entire Spirit Pagoda in the future.

Whenever he thought of his plan, Qiangu Dongfeng felt satisfied and relieved. At his current level, wealth was no longer important. Power was just a goal. Seeing that the Qiangu family had successors and might become a great family that would be remembered for generations to come, this was what he hoped to see the most. "Six billion eight hundred million for the first time, six billion eight hundred million for the second time!" The auctioneer screamed almost hoarsely.

Today's auction price for the Ice God's Heart was not ideal. According to the instructions, we were going to try to get it at the 10 billion level. But who would have thought that there were only a few bidders, and they were not very enthusiastic.

"Seven billion." At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, and the auctioneer felt as if he was following an imperial order.

Qiangu Dongfeng held up the number one sign in his hand and nodded slightly towards the auctioneer.

The whole place fell silent for a moment.

Every auctioneer wore a mask on his face, but there was no doubt that the person who could hold the number one plate had a very high status.

"Seven billion for the first time." After the auctioneer asked again and no one raised the price, he began to count down.

He began to introduce it again with all his might, but still no one made an offer.

"Cough cough." Qiangu Dongfeng coughed lightly.

To other people, it was just a slight sound, but to the auctioneer, it was like being struck by lightning. He felt as if the blood in his body was boiling. He was immediately horrified!
Being able to become the chief auctioneer of the Tiandou Auction House, he was certainly not an ordinary person, and his own cultivation was also quite strong. However, facing this cough, he felt as if his soul was about to be shattered.

"Seven billion second time."

"Seven billion for the third time."

Qiangu Dongfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, with the corners of his mouth rising. With his status, who wouldn't give him a favor if he took action personally?

At this moment, it seems that he is bound to obtain the Heart of the Ice God.

But just as the small hammer was about to fall, a steady male voice interrupted everything.

"Seven hundred and one billion."

I saw a sign sticking out from a certain position, and on it was clearly written the number zero.

Qiangu Dongfeng looked unhappy. He really didn't expect that someone would dare to make an offer even though he had made the offer himself.

The other auctioneers also looked at the bidder with number zero in surprise.
