Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as Dongfang Qingcang, Unrivaled in the Mortal World

Chapter 58 That only applies to the weak; I don't care at all.

Ning Fengzhi sat down in his chair and said, "I recently heard that an auction will be held in Tiandou City, and the grand finale item is a 40,000-year-old Bright Head Soul Bone. I wonder if Your Excellency is aware of this?"

Hua Lei raised his head, about to say something, but after seeing the Venerable One's gaze, he lowered his head again.

"I've heard you're also interested in this soul bone?"

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is, after all, a gemstone-type martial soul, and it's not very useful for light-attribute soul bones. Therefore, even if you buy it, you probably won't be able to use it.

Ning Fengzhi already knew about this, but his trip was actually to prepare for the future of the sect.

Skull soul bones are extremely precious, and soul bones with the attribute of light are even rarer.

If we can recruit a Title Douluo with the Light attribute in the future and then give him the Soul Bone, wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?

That's why Ning Fengzhi chose to auction this soul bone. He came here today to inform Dongfang Qingcang and see if the other party was interested.

If they have no interest, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is determined to obtain this soul bone; if they do, they will have no choice but to purchase it from the latter later.

Dongfang Qingcang took a sip of tea and said, "Don't worry, I have no interest in that soul bone. However, I will be heading to the Heavenly Dou Auction House tomorrow."

Hearing these words, Ning Fengzhi finally felt relieved.

Without Dongfang Qingcang's participation, this auction might be quite simple. With the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's resources, there are very few who can rival it.

After exchanging a few brief pleasantries, Ning Fengzhi took his leave.

On the way to and from the sect, Gu Rong asked with some curiosity, "Feng Zhi, is Dongfang Qingcang really that powerful, that you have to be so humble and subservient to him?"

Ning Fengzhi sighed. Uncle Gu didn't see what happened last time. If he had seen the moment Buzhou Mountain fell, he probably wouldn't have said such a thing.

If Mount Buzhou, weighing tens of thousands of tons, were to fall on a human, it would probably be smashed to pieces in an instant.

"Uncle Bone, Dongfang Qingcang's strength is incredibly powerful. We still haven't figured him out. Nobody knows if he has any other trump cards, and we don't even know his soul power."

Ning Fengzhi's expression was strange. This was the first time he had ever seen such a person in all these years. After all, it was rare to see someone who could escape Ning Fengzhi's discerning eyes.

Gu Rong didn't say anything, but being naturally warlike, he was itching to spar with Dongfang Qingcang so that they could determine who was stronger.

If he could defeat Dongfang Qingcang, it would prove that he was stronger than that old guy, Sword Douluo Chenxin.

.....................

Soon, the auction began as scheduled.

As important guests of the event, Dongfang Qingcang and Xiaolanhua arrived at the auction early and took advantage of their status to sit directly in the first row.

The auction was divided into five sections. The three rows of seats closest to the stage were red, radiating outwards in black, purple, yellow, and white, respectively.

It was clearly set up according to different levels of bidders. The black seats in the circle were the regular million-dollar VIP area; anyone with money could enter.

With several million gold soul coins in his hands, Dongfang Qingcang naturally went directly to the black seat.

There aren't many people here. Those who can come here to participate in the auction are either rich or noble. Some people can't even earn 10,000 gold soul coins in their entire lives, which is enough to show how precious gold soul coins are to others.

There are many things in this world that are beyond our control. This is the Heavenly Battle Auction House. Let alone slaves, there is nothing here that we dare not sell.

The reason those girls had indifferent expressions was because they no longer had their own hearts, let alone the power to decide their own destinies.

All they could do was obey. They were beautiful in appearance, but they had no soul of their own.

Dongfang Qingcang glanced at the group of women working hard for money, but said nothing. He rested his chin on his hand and quietly looked at the auction area.

Since it was still early, the auction had not yet started, presumably waiting for others to arrive before proceeding with the auction.

Xiao Lanhua sat next to Dongfang Qingcang, looking around and noticing that everyone who came here was wearing a mask, which made her a little curious.

He immediately turned around and asked cautiously, "Great Demon, I see everyone else is wearing masks. Aren't we being a bit too blatant?"

"That only applies to the weak; I don't care at all."

Dongfang Qingcang replied with a mocking smile.

Only the weak fear being targeted by others, thus ending up losing both their money and their dignity.

As for the strong, they undoubtedly don't care about this matter at all.

As expected, Ning Fengzhi, who walked in, was also not wearing a mask. He didn't care about other people's opinions either. After all, who in this world would dare to offend the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?

That would be suicide.

Ning Fengzhi looked around and also noticed Dongfang Qingcang sitting in a row, but he did not go over to greet him. Instead, he simply found a place to sit down.

In no time at all.

The auction house was filled with people, most of whom were Soul Masters. Very few ordinary people came in, except for merchants who had tens of millions of gold Soul Coins.

Even the powerful figures from the Heaven Dou Empire have arrived here. This auction has been heavily promoted, and both the Heaven Dou Empire and Salas, the Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall, have appeared here.

"I never expected today's auction to be so lively."

Walking in the center was an elderly man in magnificent robes. He wore a large yellow robe embroidered with clusters of flowers, yet it appeared perfectly neat. His white hair was neatly combed back. He was of medium build, slightly plump, and had a dignified appearance.

His eyes, however, seemed a bit small, which detracted from the overall appearance of his features. Standing with his hands behind his back, even the members of the royal family present couldn't help but raise an eyebrow upon seeing him.

Standing to the right of the elderly man in fine clothes was another elderly man, but unlike the one in fine clothes, this man was tall and thin, looking like a javelin, with dark green beard and hair, and his eyes sparkling like emeralds.

This person was none other than Dugu Bo, known as the Poison Douluo.

However, the person beside Dugu Bo was Prince Xuexing of the Heaven Dou Empire, who was also the younger brother of Emperor Xueye and had some decision-making power.

If it weren't for Prince Xuexing's interference, Shrek Academy would probably have joined the Heaven Dou Royal Academy long ago, and the subsequent events would not have occurred.
