Situ Xue took back the jade slip in a daze.

He thought to himself, "Isn't this payment for Lin Jinglong?"

As a result, he took the cultivation technique, completed it, and sent back a complete version of the Heavenly Thunder Guidance.

And it's a god-level cultivation technique?

Situ Xue carefully examined the jade slip.

This was then confirmed by Wu Shenji and Situ Nan, who were standing to the side.

All three were Martial Emperors, and since they worked in this auction house, they had basic discernment. They quickly determined the quality after Lin Jinglong's improvements.

This cultivation technique is indeed a celestial-level technique!

Situ Nan seemed to have lost his worldview.

The way he looked at Lin Jinglong was as if he were seeing a god; his shock was boundless, even bordering on fear.

It made his scalp tingle.

"Such a genius exists in the world?"

Wu Shenji weighed the pros and cons.

"This Heavenly Thunder Guidance manual is only considered a low-grade immortal technique, but since Mr. Lin has completed it and is willing to return it to our auction house, we should of course offer a fair price!"

He gritted his teeth and whispered to Situ Xue.

"Young Master, how about 120,000 points?"

"Only 120,000?"

Situ Xue frowned.

Wu Shenji said with a wry smile, "It's not that I'm stingy, it's just that the surplus of our Kyoto branch over the past five years is only a few hundred thousand points. If we give it all to Mr. Lin, we might as well let him become the owner of our branch."

It should be noted that Lin Jinglong already has 40,000 points in his account. If he had another hundred thousand or so, he alone could rival the Kyoto branch.

If Lin Jinglong wanted to exchange all his points for items, Dark Star Auction House would even have to mobilize resources from its headquarters to meet his request.

This is tantamount to a run on their branch.

Situ Xue pondered for a moment.

"A complete immortal-level cultivation technique is worth at least 150,000 points, and it's priceless. This technique is worth 160,000 points."

She spoke to Lin Jinglong.

"Including the original 40,000 points, if Mr. Lin agrees, you will be among the richest people in our entire Dark Star Auction House, with tens of millions of members."

Lin Jinglong nodded slightly.

"160,000 points is fair enough."

"make a deal!"

Situ Xue could only manage a bitter smile.

She suddenly realized that she owed Lin Jinglong more and more. Their Dark Star Auction House never did business at a loss, but dealing with Lin Jinglong was a different story.

They definitely didn't lose money.

But Lin Jinglong earned even more!

"What an amazing talent!"

Situ Xue was completely convinced.

Afterwards, she discussed with Lin Jinglong that they would need to spend at least a day making arrangements to ensure that no other forces would block their way after they entered the ruins.

They also discussed many details of the cooperation.

This includes deciding how many people to bring in, how to distribute the harvested resources, and how to deal with encounters with other forces, etc.

When Lin Jinglong walked out of Dark Star Manor.

It was already morning.

He rushed back to the Dragon Soul Hall.

He was just thinking of finding Wu Yuehan to spend some time with.

To their surprise, the Dragon Soul Club was deserted.

Where are they?

Lin Jinglong's expression changed.

Not only did Wu Yuehan disappear, but the hundreds of veterans in the Dragon Soul Hall also vanished.

Not a trace was left!

Lin Jinglong subconsciously suspected that this was a reclusive family taking revenge on him, so he immediately contacted Chong Wanfeng!

Even he has gone missing!

Lin Jinglong's expression was gloomy.

After setting off for Shenqing Temple, Lin Jinglong, in order to prevent any accidents from happening there, did not take Chong Wanfeng with him, but instead sent him back to the Dragon Soul Hall for protection.

"Could this all be the work of a reclusive family?"

"But if it were them, Chong Wanfeng would definitely make a scene in Kyoto, after all, he is also a sixth-level Martial Emperor!"

There must be something wrong here!

Lin Jinglong's killing intent grew increasingly pronounced.

He was just about to contact the Loose Cultivator Martial Arts Association and Lin Tianlang's side, asking them to mobilize their subordinates to investigate what happened at the Dragon Soul Hall last night.

Suddenly I received a message.

"Lin Jinglong, if you don't want anything to happen to Wu Yuehan, then hurry up and come over."

"The location is the Elders' Council Hall!"

Lin Jinglong narrowed his eyes.

It sounds like Wu Yuehan and the others are safe for the time being, but the Elders' Council Hall is a special place.

That's the core area of ​​the Great Xia Elders' Council!

Besides the defensive array, there are countless experts surrounding them, and even high-level Martial Emperors would suffer setbacks.

"Is the second wife imprisoned by the elders?"

Lin Jinglong did not hesitate at all.

Since the other party has already provided the location.

Whether it's true or not, we have to go there at least to find out who's targeting him!

"You dare touch my wife? I'll make sure you regret it!"

Lin Jinglong left the Dragon Soul Hall with a gloomy expression.

After flying at explosive speed over Kyoto for a distance, it quickly landed on the plaza in front of the Elder Council Hall.

Looking at the vast square.

And in front of it, a magnificent building covering a vast area.

Lin Jinglong's expression was solemn. He had only just landed when he sensed the pressure emanating from the defensive array here.

The square leads to the headquarters of the Senate.

The closer you get, the stronger the sense of oppression becomes!

"As expected of the official headquarters of the Great Xia Dynasty, it is indeed majestic. Let alone high-ranking officials, even a Martial Emperor would probably not be able to influence it."

Lin Jinglong is currently only a third-tier Martial Emperor.

However, he was quite resourceful, and he used his divine sense to probe towards the council hall ahead.
