Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: Starting with a Bond to God King Tang San

Chapter 84 Soul Bone

Seeing that Deng Mu was not attracted by the girls, Ling Luochen breathed a sigh of relief and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Before the two even reached the door, one of the eight girls at the entrance came out to greet them with a faint smile and stood beside them.

The young girl respectfully asked, "Are you two Soul Masters here to attend the Treasure Appreciation Event?"

Deng Mu and Ling Luochen nodded and handed over their respective invitations.

After reading the invitation, the girl's smile softened even more. "Two Soul Masters, please follow me."

As she spoke, she made a gesture to lead the way and then walked ahead.

Ling Luochen and Deng Mu followed the girl into the Treasure Pavilion.

Stepping into the Treasure Pavilion, an atmosphere of luxury immediately envelops you. The golden hall exudes extravagance, with the entire space shimmering under the crystal chandeliers hanging high in the ceiling.

Two rows of girls also stood on either side of the hall. Compared to the eight girls in long dresses outside, the girls in gold short skirts inside were even more eye-catching.

These girls were even younger, and their short skirts revealed very little fabric, showing off their fair, slender legs. Every single one of them was above average in appearance and had an excellent figure—curvy in all the right places.

"Welcome, distinguished guests." The girls on both sides suddenly bowed and said at the same time.

The girls all bowed to a ninety-degree angle, each revealing their cleavage.

"??????"

When Deng Mu subconsciously tried to look at these people, everything went black and his vision was blocked.

"Junior, you're still young."

Just as Deng Mu was wondering what was going on, Ling Luochen's voice rang out.

Hearing Ling Luochen's words, Deng Mu felt utterly helpless.

He just subconsciously wanted to take a look; there was no need for him to do that.

Deng Mu nodded, somewhat helplessly, and said, "I understand, senior."

The two followed the girl in the blue dress to the second floor, where many things were placed.

"Welcome, distinguished guests, to the Treasure Pavilion's Treasure Appreciation Event. The event will be held on the second floor; please feel free to browse..."

The girl in the blue dress gave a brief introduction to Ling Luochen and Deng Mu.

Ling Luochen had been to the Treasure Appreciation Event several times and was very familiar with it. She mainly wanted Deng Mu to know about it.

"Junior, why don't you go register?"

"Um."

Deng Mu nodded in agreement with Ling Luochen's words and followed the girl to get an evaluation.

Arriving at a counter, Deng Mu briefly wrote down his information, listing his soul power level as 39. Writing it too low would be treating people like idiots.

The girl in the blue dress and the girl at the counter looked at Deng Mu with incredibly intense eyes. At first, they thought Deng Mu just looked young, but they didn't expect him to have so much potential.

If they could get close to Deng Mu, they would only need to dream of wealth and luxury in the future.

Seeing the strange looks in the eyes of the girls in blue dresses, Ling Luochen took Deng Mu's hand and expressed that Deng Mu was hers.

Deng Mu paused for a moment, then turned his head to look at her with some surprise.

Ling Luochen, however, acted as if nothing had happened, his expression calm. He even slightly raised his chin and gave the two girls a warning look, as if to say that he had their backs and they shouldn't have any ideas.

Upon seeing this, the eagerness in the girls' eyes quickly faded, replaced by polite, professional smiles, and they dared not show any more emotion.

Ling Luochen then withdrew his gaze with satisfaction, leaned closer to Deng Mu, and lowered his voice to say, "Junior, most of these women outside are greedy and opportunistic. They're just after your potential and have developed wicked ideas."

Hearing Ling Luochen's words, Deng Mu nodded helplessly, unsure of what to say.

He knew perfectly well; he wasn't stupid, how could he not see it?

He increasingly felt that Ling Luochen treated him like a younger brother, but it didn't matter. He already had several older sisters, so having one more Ling Luochen wouldn't be a big problem.

Soon, Deng Mu's assessment was released.

The young woman at the counter spoke softly and respectfully, "Dear Mr. Deng, welcome to the Treasure Pavilion. You have been promoted to a top-tier VIP, so you don't need to pay any credit. According to your current VIP privileges, every three years you are entitled to choose one item from the Treasure Appreciation Club to take home without paying any fees..."

Hearing the girl's words, Deng Mu was stunned for a moment, thinking that something was wrong.

This permission is similar to Huo Yutong's, which allows access every year.

Huo Yutong became a top VIP because of the decision made at the Sea God Pavilion meeting. On the surface, the academy will not make any statement, but it will secretly invest in Huo Yutong.

But what was his reason?

In the eyes of the people at Shrek Academy, he was most likely a member of some reclusive sect.

Sending him directly into the inner courtyard was probably a gesture of goodwill towards his "backer's" influence; he couldn't think of any other possibility besides that.

The saleswoman handed the Jubao Pavilion VIP card to Deng Mu, still somewhat unwilling to give up, wanting to seduce him, but Ling Luochen was a problem.

Deng Mu accepted the top-tier VIP card and said, "Yes, thank you."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

She wanted to say something more, but Ling Luochen forcibly pulled her away.

Seeing this, the two girls sighed with regret, secretly thinking that when Deng Mu came alone, they would try to seduce him.

"What's wrong, senior?"

Deng Mu asked Ling Luochen with some confusion, not quite understanding what Ling Luochen was trying to do.

Ling Luochen frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "Don't waste time talking to them. This treasure appreciation event is a mixed bag. It's not just those maids who are watching you. There might be other people with ulterior motives lurking in the shadows. Don't let your guard down."

Hearing Ling Luochen's words, Deng Mu nodded, somewhat amused and exasperated.

Now it's absolutely certain that Ling Luochen treats him like a younger brother.

"Okay, I understand, senior."

"Um."

Ling Luochen was very satisfied with Deng Mu's words.

The two strolled around for a while, and Deng Mu saw a soul bone.

It was a right leg bone, which seemed to be carved from deep obsidian, with a faint glow flowing on its surface, outlining the pattern of a rhinoceros horn, mysterious and profound.

When Deng Mu saw this piece of right leg bone, he inexplicably felt that it was suitable for Jiang Nannan, and began to check the description.

The right leg bone of the Shadow Rhinoceros, from a ten-thousand-year-old Shadow Rhinoceros beast...

Not bad.

After reading it, Deng Mu thought to himself.

I feel like I could replace the right leg bone of this Ghostly Spirit and give it to Jiang Nannan.

Seeing Deng Mu staring intently at the right leg bone of the Shadow Rhinoceros, Ling Luochen asked, "Junior, are you interested in this right leg bone of the Shadow Rhinoceros?"

She felt that the Shadow Spirit Right Leg Bone was not suitable for Deng Mu, and that it would be better to choose something else.

Deng Mu nodded and said, "Yes, I want to exchange it for my sister. This soul bone is suitable for my sister."

Hearing Deng Mu's words, Ling Luochen was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but think of a certain person.
