Several days have passed since the killing of the elder of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion.

In the past few days, many members of the Jianghai family have come to visit. After obtaining Qin Ziling's address from an unknown source, the threshold of the villa has been worn down by the constant stream of visitors.

Looking at the countless gifts in the hall, Qin Ziling was speechless. He didn't want to deal with those trivial matters in the first place.

"I never imagined that after the battle at the Martial Arts Tournament, Master's reputation would have been so well-deserved," Blood Spider remarked with some emotion.

"Back when I first distinguished myself at the Martial Arts Tournament, it was the same. Countless families extended olive branches to me. I was at the height of my power, enjoying boundless glory. Moreover, after I made it onto the Tiger Ranking, my fame soared," Master Jiang added from the side.

At this moment, his face was somewhat pale, and there was a scar on his face, which seemed to be from being cut by a sword.

Since his last sparring session with the swordsman, his strength has improved again. He always thought that once he broke through, everything would go smoothly. Unexpectedly, after breaking through his realm, his battle with the swordsman led to a huge breakthrough in his swordsmanship!

It has to be said, the swordsman's strength is truly formidable!

Because the other party was only interested in swords, his swordsmanship was quite pure!

Even though Master Jiang is considered a senior master of swordsmanship, he still has to admire swordsmen!

Upon hearing Master Jiang's words, the swordsman beside him raised an eyebrow: "The martial arts of your Dragon Kingdom shouldn't be this low!"

Master Jiang said, "This is just a small city. In the Dragon Kingdom, martial arts have a long history. What you see is just the surface. Just like me, I consider myself to be a number one in martial arts, but I can only be ranked on the Tiger List. I haven't even met the most basic requirements for the Dragon List."

At this point, Master Jiang shook his head: "Even I, in my current state, probably cannot defeat the number one hundred on the Dragon Ranking."

The swordsman glanced at him. To be honest, he was quite interested in the strongmen of the Dragon Kingdom because their martial arts traditions were different from those of the West, which gave him a sense of novelty.

Only the strong can make him stronger! Make his sword even sharper!

At this moment, Master Jiang suddenly said, "With Mr. Qin's cultivation and martial prowess, I imagine he could even try to challenge the Dragon Ranking."

Qin Ziling said calmly, "I've said it before, I have no interest in this kind of thing. Whether it's the Dragon and Tiger Ranking or a higher-level martial arts force, it means nothing to me."

Everyone fell silent. Although Qin Ziling's words had a hint of showing off, no one present questioned them, because no one here knew Qin Ziling's true strength!

The swordsman also looked at Qin Ziling, who was the tyrant of the dark world! His strength was far more terrifying than that of the main gods in the temple!

Ring ring ring!

Just then, Qin Ziling's phone rang.

"Ziling, the auction is about to begin!"

Qin Ziling narrowed his eyes.

...

The following evening, a car pulled up in front of an international hotel.

The car door opened, and Qin Ziling appeared in the scene. At the same time, the swordsman also stepped out of the car on the other side.

The swordsman was dressed in a suit, and unusually, he was not holding a sword. His aloof demeanor immediately attracted a lot of attention.

"You've come!"

At that moment, a powerful voice rang out.

Qin Ziling and the others looked over upon hearing the sound and saw Murong Shun, the deputy hall master of the Dragon Palace, leading Nightingale and others over.

Just as Qin Ziling was about to step forward, a hostile gaze suddenly fell upon him.

Qin Ziling looked at the person, and it turned out to be Yan Di, the young master from Kyoto, who was the Dragon Group member he had taught a lesson to last time.

A mocking smile played on his lips as he ignored the other person's cold gaze and looked at Murong Shun, who had already stood before him: "You said the auction has started?"

Murong Shun nodded: "Yes, this auction will be held in the underground city of Nancheng. Experts from all sides will be there, and not only that, but powerful figures from the West will also be present!"

The strong in the West!

In other words, this auction house has already involved the interests of the Western underworld?

Qin Ziling found it amusing and asked, "Doesn't your Dragon Palace forbid Western dark world forces from entering your territory? Why didn't you stop them this time?"

Murong Shun shook his head: "This matter is complicated. The scale of this auction is enormous, so much so that even the Dragon Kingdom attaches great importance to its preparation. Many of the items to be auctioned are also desired by various Western powers. Therefore, many powers have communicated with the Dragon Kingdom's higher-ups, and ultimately, the higher-ups agreed to allow their representatives to enter. However, if they dare to cause trouble on Dragon Kingdom territory, then we will take coercive measures!"

Qin Ziling smiled and said, "Do whatever you want. But if you end up shooting yourself in the foot, don't blame me for not warning you."

He knew the nature of the underworld very well. Let alone getting them to abide by the rules of the Dragon Kingdom, even if they really acted recklessly, probably no one could stop them.

Moreover, all those who came from the West this time were authorized by the top leadership of the Dragon Kingdom, meaning that none of them were simple characters!

"Hmph! Don't underestimate the strength of my Dragon Palace! Even if they come from the Temple, they'll still have to behave themselves on our territory!" A sarcastic voice rang out at this moment.

It was Yan Di who spoke.

Ever since he was dealt with by Qin Ziling last time, he had been resentful. So when he learned from the deputy hall master that the other party was also going to participate in this auction, he shamelessly followed along.

As soon as he spoke, everyone frowned slightly.

Nightingale's face immediately turned cold, and she stared at Yan Di with icy eyes.

She had naturally heard about what happened last time; that纨绔 (wán kù, a spoiled brat) actually dared to provoke Longya!

Even though the other party was the young master of the Yan family, she was not afraid of him at all!

Qin Ziling glanced at Yan Di and raised an eyebrow: "Oh? Isn't this the piece of trash I taught a lesson to last time? What, itching for a beating now? Want to come and get a beating?"

"You!" Yan Di's face turned cold as she glared angrily at Qin Ziling. "Longya, even if you were a meritorious official of the Dragon Kingdom, that's all in the past! Now you're nothing more than a rat tugging at the ground! What are you so arrogant about?!"

"Shut up!"

"Enough!"

As soon as Yan Di spoke, Nightingale and Murong Shun immediately responded.

"Yan Di! If you dare to insult him again, I will not let you off!" Nightingale exuded a cold aura, and a terrifying pressure directly enveloped Yan Di.

"Nightingale! He's no longer good enough for you! You have a bright future, and in the entire Dragon Kingdom, only my elder brother is worthy of you! Don't protect this brat!" Yan Di sneered.

Upon hearing this, Nightingale's face immediately turned cold.
