Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Ten Ferocious Heavenly Horned Ant

She wasn't unhappy about losing the bet; instead, she became curious about Dong Qing, the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall.

For women, a man's power, strength, and capital are essential, but if he also possesses literary talent, he will undoubtedly make them even happier.

"Xiaoqing, you actually have this kind of talent?"

Qian Renxue felt as if she were meeting Dong Qing for the first time. She hadn't expected that he was not only stronger than her, but also possessed remarkable literary talent.

Chapter 81, We Are All Protagonists

Faced with their curiosity, Dong Qing said in a cold tone, "Since I won this bet, and Ning Rongrong, you are willing to accept defeat, then let's part ways here."

After saying that.

Dong Qing dragged Qian Renxue away from Yuxuan Pavilion, leaving Ning Rongrong behind with a puzzled look on her face.

About half an hour later.

On a quiet street in Tiandou City, a white-haired youth suddenly appeared beside Ning Rongrong. As if sensing something, she looked up at the white-haired youth.

He is Chen Xin, one of the two pillars of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, a level 96 peak Douluo, and a Sword Douluo.

From his appearance, he was a young man in his thirties or forties, wearing a spotless white robe, with white hair and beard, and his long silver hair was neatly combed down his back.

He had a simple and unadorned appearance, with a face as delicate as a baby's. His expression was indifferent, and his eyes seemed to be unable to see anything around him. He simply stood there quietly.

But even though he was just standing there, he still gave people the feeling that he was the only one who mattered in the world. Only Ning Rongrong, who was beside him, could ignore the influence of this aura.

"Grandpa Jian, why is he in such a hurry to leave? Is it because Rongrong isn't cute?" Ning Rongrong stomped her foot and said unhappily.

"Rongrong, of course you're adorable. It's just that the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall has terrible taste," Sword Douluo Chen Xin comforted her.

Ning Rongrong seemed to remember something. She took out the calligraphy that Dong Qing had just written. The ink on it was still wet and gave off a faint scent of ink.

"By the way, Grandpa Jian, what do you think of this poem?"

After receiving the calligraphy, Sword Douluo Chen Xin lowered his head and pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "He is no ordinary youth; his talent and aptitude far surpass those of his peers."

"He's truly extraordinary. I thought the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall was all brawn and no brains, but I never expected him to be such a talented person," Ning Rongrong exclaimed.

"Rongrong, he's not your type. Don't develop feelings for him," Sword Douluo Chenxin warned.

"Grandpa Jian, what nonsense are you talking about? How could I possibly have feelings for someone who is handsome, talented, and gifted!" Ning Rongrong retorted loudly.

After these words were spoken, not only was Sword Douluo Chen Xin speechless, but even Ning Rongrong herself didn't know how to comment on her own words.

.......

I don't know how much time passed, but night slowly fell.

The lights in Tiandou City gradually came on, making it as brightly lit as a modern city. Many vendors even set up night stalls, creating a scene of peace and prosperity.

Dongqing and Qianrenxue strolled side by side in the night, clutching some snacks they had bought.

"It's getting late, so it seems I'll have to leave tomorrow," Dongqing thought to himself.

He had originally planned to leave Tiandou City this afternoon, but unfortunately, he was delayed for too long by Qian Renxue's matter.

It was a rare occasion for Qian Renxue to reveal her true identity. She had been pretending to be Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Heavenly Dou Empire, to the point that she had almost forgotten that she was still a woman.

So from afternoon until nightfall, Dongqing accompanied Qianrenxue shopping, letting her enjoy this rare holiday.

For her.

This match with Dongqing was a break she had taken for herself. Although she lost in the end, she felt very happy because she had gained a younger brother.

The reason Qian Renxue accepted Dong Qing so easily was not only because he defeated her with his strength, but also because of that "sister" that made her heart tremble.

Although Qian Daoliu doted on Qian Renxue since she was a child, as her grandfather, there was still a generational gap between him and his granddaughter, making it difficult for him to fill the void in her heart.

Because Qian Renxue had been at odds with Bibi Dong since childhood, the mother and daughter couldn't stand each other.

But at this moment, because of Dong Qing's intervention, it seems that a bridge for communication has been established between the mother and daughter, which is why Qian Renxue is somewhat attached to Dong Qing.

........

while walking.

The lights of the Tiandou Auction House in the distance suddenly caught Dong Qing's attention.

"Shall we go take a look?" Qian Renxue asked.

As she spoke, she nudged Dongqing's waist with her elbow. She didn't know why, but she always felt that she liked to tease him and see how helpless he could do anything about it.

"Well, that just happens to be something I'm interested in. Let's go check it out!"

Dong Qing was actually quite curious about the auction house. He had been working hard to cultivate his soul power and hadn't had the time to wander around the auction house.

Now... he has plenty of time.

The rare medicinal herbs inside the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire have been completely divided up by him and Qian Renxue. Even the valley of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire now belongs to the two of them.

Without the powerful auxiliary force of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Tang San has no idea when he will become a Title Douluo.

The Eight-Cornered Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Blossom, which were divine herbs that helped Tang San in the future to forge a body immune to ice and fire, have now been eaten by Qian Renxue.

Longing for this celestial herb that could evolve Tang San's Purple Demon Eye, it has now been eaten by Dong Qing.

Now that the future has been completely messed up by Dong Qing, Tang San has also lost the favor of fate, and it is unknown whether he can become a god in this lifetime.

The myriad realms and the endless sea of ​​stars.

There is never an absolute protagonist. Every powerful being who reaches the final step can claim to be the protagonist.

......

Tiandou Auction House.

Auction houses are common settings in novels and movies, where many protagonists have their own adventures.

It could be about finding a bargain, posing as a connoisseur, or even robbing someone.

From the outside, Tiandou Auction House is an extremely luxurious building, with a magnificent and opulent appearance. Its doors, windows, and railings are intricately carved and decorated with patterns of peonies, osmanthus, and crabapple, which symbolize wealth and prosperity.

"Hello sir, you need to provide proof of funds to enter the Tiandou Auction House," a maid in a white cheongsam said respectfully to Dong Qing.

The cheongsam is form-fitting, accentuating the graceful figure.

They were all bought by auction houses when they were young, and after years of cruel personality training, they have become tools of the auction houses.

However, they are merely tools, their eyes lifeless, having long since lost their souls, serving as competent tools in the hands of the auction house.

Is this okay?

Qian Renxue took out a black and gold card and waved it in front of the cheongsam-clad maid.

"Of course, please come with me."

The cheongsam-clad maid naturally knew what the black gold card in Qian Renxue's hand meant. This was a black gold card that only nobles of the Heaven Dou Kingdom possessed, and the value of a single card was no less than 100,000 gold soul coins.

Led by a lady in a cheongsam, Dong Qing and Qian Renxue entered the center of the auction house. Surprisingly, the auction seemed to have only just begun.

The auctioneer was a beautiful Soul Master, and at this moment, she was passionately introducing an item for auction.

"The next item up for auction is a spatial soul tool, which has been passed down from ancient times and is extremely precious. The starting bid is 50,000 gold soul coins."

Chapter 82, The Grand Finale Auction Item

Too expensive!

With Dong Qing's discerning eye, he naturally knew that this spatial soul tool was actually of mediocre quality and, in terms of practicality, was not worth 50,000 gold soul coins at all.

Unfortunately, this spatial soul tool was actually a very beautiful hairpin with considerable added value, which successfully attracted the attention of most of the women present.

Faced with the longing in their female companions' eyes, the nobles present generously opened their wallets.

It was pushed up to 30,000 gold soul coins, and in the end, it went to a noblewoman. Judging from the expression on her face, she was probably very happy.

"There are too many people outside, please arrange a private room for us."

Dong Qing stood still, quietly watching the auction conclude. Afterward, he planned to find a private room to sit down and slowly examine the next items.

"Yes, esteemed guest, please follow me."

The cheongsam-clad maid bent slightly, revealing her beautiful curves, while Dong Qing, being a gentleman, ultimately dared not look too closely under Qian Renxue's watchful gaze.

Box No. 3, Xuanzi.

After entering the private room, Dongqing found a long bench that looked like a modern sofa. It looked very expensive, and he unconsciously settled down in a comfortable position.

Seeing how tired and lazy he was, Qian Renxue glared at him with her beautiful eyes, then moved gracefully to sit down beside him, instead of lying down like him.

With her elegant demeanor and noble bearing, she would never be so rude.

the other side.

A maid in a cheongsam slowly walked in from outside the door carrying a plate of fruit. She then knelt down beside Dong Qing, picked up a piece of tempting red fruit with her slender, fair fingers, and placed it near his mouth.

Dongqing gently bit off the unidentified fruit near his mouth, and instantly, its juicy juice burst forth.

these years.

As the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, Dong Qing had long been accustomed to this extravagant life of being waited on, but he did not succumb to it and still maintained his original intentions.

Maintaining one's true self is both difficult and easy; it simply requires overcoming seven kinds of loneliness, and you don't need to experience them all. Any kind of loneliness can significantly strengthen your inner self.

Sevenfold loneliness: the departure of family members, the separation from relatives, the departure of friends, the separation from lovers, the loneliness of being alone in an empty house, the loneliness of being hungry and cold, and the anxiety of exploring the truth alone.

Once you've experienced these seven layers of loneliness, your heart will be slowly hardened by time, and it will be difficult for anything to move your hardened heart afterward.

Simply put, once you have endured seven layers of solitude, you will become a true powerhouse.

In his previous life on Earth, Dong Qing was just an average person. He experienced three kinds of loneliness: the loneliness of being alone in an empty house, the loneliness of being hungry and cold, and the separation from his loved ones.

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

At this moment, the auction house put up a new item for auction, and the beautiful auctioneer was enthusiastically introducing the item.

"The following item is no ordinary item. It is a thousand-year-old soul bone, extremely precious and powerful. It is the right leg soul bone of the Hydralisk Hurricane, with the accompanying soul skill---Hurricane Enhancement."

"This soul bone skill can increase your speed by 30% across the board. With it, your speed will far surpass that of other soul masters of the same level, and its starting bid isn't expensive either, only 30,000 gold soul coins."

"Thirty-five thousand gold soul coins."

"Forty-seven thousand gold soul coins."
