Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 6 Rushing to Wutan
After leaving the Soul Realm, Hun Ruoruo did not leave Zhongzhou directly as she had previously told Emperor Hun Tian. Instead, she continued to disguise herself in different identities and spent a lot of time exchanging all the resources given by the other party.

It seems to be a thankless task, but at least the source is reliable and there is no need to worry about any tampering.

After all, she never hesitated to use the utmost malice to doubt the things given by Emperor Hun Tian.
Zhongzhou North Region, Jiangcheng

As a marginal area of ​​Zhongzhou, Jiangcheng is not as prosperous as the Central Region, but it can also be regarded as the lifeline where the Northwest Region and Zhongzhou meet, so naturally it is not far behind in popularity.

There are many large and small forces in Jiangcheng, among which the Zhenjiang Auction House is the most respected. Although it is called an auction house, it can be said that it has monopolized all the economic lifelines of the entire city with the powerful strength of its president who is a high-level Dou Zong.

Under the protection of such a powerful person, the auction house's advantages were maximized - wealth, information, connections, it can be said that it has everything. In addition, its neutral attitude will not cause resentment from other forces in Jiangcheng.

If someone offends the auction house, they will be excluded or even expelled from the entire Jiangcheng. This united attitude has amazed many passers-by.

But it makes sense. Who can resist money?
In a lounge on the top floor of the Zhenjiang Auction House, Hun Ruoruo, dressed in a black robe, was leaning against the window, looking down at the scenery below the river city.

Looking out the window at the endless array of shops and the endless stream of people on the street, the girl pondered and muttered to herself, "So much time has passed in a flash. There must be too many things in this ring."

As the strongest person in the continent, Emperor Hun Tian's collection in the storage ring he casually took out was absolutely vast.

Rather, it is because the other party gave it to him casually, so most of the things in it have not been screened and considered, and are piled together in a haphazard manner.

According to Hun Ruoruo's statistics, there are as many as twenty volumes of Earth-level fighting skills alone, and there are so many Profound-level ones that she can't even remember their names.
If all these fighting skills were auctioned, I'm afraid I could buy an entire city in the Northern Territory.

Fortunately, after repeated confirmation, she found that these fighting skills were not created by Emperor Hun Tian, ​​so she didn't have to worry about the other party doing anything to them. She only needed to exchange the remaining treasures and elixirs in the ring, and she would be able to let go of her suspicions and go to the Northwest Region with peace of mind.

"Dignified guest."

While she was thinking, there was a gentle knock on the door, and a mature, beautiful woman in scantily clad clothes walked in. She bowed respectfully and said, "The auction of the item you entrusted for this time has ended. As you requested, all of it has been exchanged for medicinal herbs and low-level elixirs. There are still some gold coins left, so I brought them with me."

After that, she gently took out a ring and a luxurious crystal card from her bosom and placed them on the coffee table not far away.

"Also, the maps of the countries in the Northwest Region that you asked us to collect are already in the ring. Given the extremely high value of the items you are offering, we will not charge you any extra for the maps."

"Thank you."

Hearing this, the mature and beautiful woman smiled professionally. After chatting for a while, she left the room on the pretext of work, leaving Hun Ruoruo with plenty of privacy.

After the other party left, Hun Ruoruo picked up the card on the coffee table and glanced at the amount of money on it.

"Oh my! This 'Life-Restoring Pill' is truly a life-saving item. It fetched nearly double the price of an ordinary seventh-grade pill."

She put the card into her pocket, and then took out the map of the Gama Empire from the wide variety of medicinal herbs in her ring.

The girl licked the corner of her lips, her big, charming eyes blinked, her eyes moved, making the pure face hidden under the black robe look a little more weird.
"Once I leave Zhongzhou, I can finally take off these damn disguises."

Two months later, Wutan City

"Fighting Qi, third stage!"

Looking at the familiar black stone tablet in front of him, the young man couldn't help but increase the strength of his hand on the stone tablet.

One second, two seconds
A long moment passed, and the five characters on the Test Magic Stone remained unchanged. The gleaming light now seemed almost blinding. He withdrew his hand expressionlessly, a hint of self-mockery playing on the corner of his lips. His other clenched fist, from exerting excessive force, had caused his nails to dig deep into his palm, causing waves of excruciating pain.
"Xiao Yan, fighting power, third stage! Level: low level!" The middle-aged man standing next to the test magic stone tablet announced his results in an indifferent tone.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of mocking commotion on the crowded bluestone training ground, as if people had already expected this result.

"Third dan? Hehe, as expected, this 'genius' has been treading water again this year!"

"Hey, this loser has really disgraced the family."

"If the clan leader wasn't his father, this kind of loser would have been expelled from the clan long ago and left to fend for himself. How could they allow him to eat and drink for free here?"

Listening to the laughter and sighs coming from the people around him, the young man who was standing there like a wooden stake began to breathe a little faster. He raised his head, revealing his young and delicate face.

"These people are still so mean. How humble they were in front of me before, how arrogant they are now. Is this considered as collecting a debt?" Xiao Yan showed a bitter smile with ambiguous meaning. He nodded woodenly in the direction of the tester, then turned around and walked dejectedly towards the last row of the team.

That lonely figure seemed somewhat out of tune with the world around him.

"Well, after all, this world doesn't belong to me." The young man glanced at the noisy crowd with some lack of interest, and then pulled the inside of his clothes to wipe the blood flowing from his palm.

The wound was painful and the blood stains on the clothes were red.

"Well, whatever. After all, this world doesn't belong to me~"

"Who?!"

Xiao Yan was terrified and turned his head sharply towards the direction where the sound came from.

There was no one beside him, only the breeze blowing fallen leaves passed by, as if silently mocking him.

"Is it a hallucination?"

Xiao Yan's frustration grew even worse, and he turned to look at the crowd—

As expected, with his sudden roar just now, the crowd who had already despised and ridiculed him became even more aggressive, and the looks they cast at him even contained a hint of pity, as if they were pitying him, a fool who had gone mad because of the huge gap between them.

Overwhelming malice swept through the young man's heart. He gritted his teeth, not caring about any rules, and turned around to leave the training ground.

"Next, Xiao Xun'er!" The tester's voice sounded at the right time, causing Xiao Yan to hesitate.

The noisy crowd suddenly became quiet after hearing this name. Most people put Xiao Yan's previous ridiculous behavior behind them and turned their attention to the stage.

As everyone's gaze converged, a beautiful girl in a purple dress calmly walked to the front of the stage. Her pretty face was calm, and her elegant and extraordinary temperament caused the people below the stage to cheer.

"Xun'er."

Xiao Yan stared at the girl on the stage who was like the moon surrounded by stars. He stopped and paused, and finally he sighed and looked away.

He took a step forward, leaving behind only a lonely figure that seemed isolated from the world.
