"It's not that Liu Quanling doesn't care, it's that he can't. This is because the scarred man was very careful when he wiped out the entire family, leaving no trace. Liu Quanling investigated personally and even applied for assistance from the Kowloon Society, inviting several martial arts experts to investigate, but none of them found any clues sufficient to convict the scarred man."
"So in the end, the matter could only be dropped, and Scarface got away with it."
Xi Yao smiled and told Ye Feng about it in a very calm tone.
Sun Muqing said somewhat unhappily, "Everyone knows he did it, but no one can produce any evidence to prove his guilt, right? Sigh, that's the loophole in the law."
"It can't be called a loophole, after all, conviction based on evidence is the underlying logic of the legal system. If convictions are based on logical deduction rather than evidence, there will be more wrongful convictions," Xi Yao said.
“That’s true.” Sun Muqing nodded.
The female auctioneer on stage announced loudly, "Mr. No. 33 has bid ten million for the wordless book. Is there anyone who can bid higher? Ten million for the first time! Ten million for the second time! Ten million for the third time—"
"Twelve million!" Scarface shouted again.
Without hesitation, Ye Feng replied, "Twenty million."
Scarface's body trembled, and then he cast a shocked and angry look at Nightwind.
"Kid, you're really asking for it!" Scarface said through gritted teeth.
But Ye Feng didn't even turn around to look at him, completely ignoring him.
"Twenty million the first time! Twenty million the second time! Twenty million the third time!"
The female auctioneer on stage shouted excitedly, her face flushed.
She had initially thought the blank book would go unsold, but it actually fetched a staggering 20 million, which was incredibly exciting for her!
This time, the scarred man didn't try to negotiate the price.
The female auctioneer waited a moment, and only when the scarred man made no further move did she finally shout, "Sold!"
The auctioneer had barely finished speaking when she brought down the gavel.
The wordless book belonged to Ye Feng, but the auction did not end there.
Over the next two hours, Ye Feng made four more bids, auctioning off some trinkets to Xi Yao, Sun Muqing, Jiang Lingxuan, and Bai Yue.
These things are of no use to them, but since they've come to the auction, how can we not buy them something?
Even if it's only for decoration, that's enough.
"Alright, alright, don't spend any more money, that's enough," Sun Muqing said.
"Mu Qing, don't be afraid. That brat Ye Feng has traveled to so many worlds, he must have amassed a lot of wealth. I bet his collection alone is enough to make him richer than a country," Xi Yao said with a smile.
“But we can’t spend it recklessly,” Sun Muqing insisted.
Xi Yao was already very satisfied with Sun Muqing, and now she was even more satisfied.
"Muqing, you really know how to manage a household well. Yefeng really made the right choice in choosing you," Xiyao said with a smile.
Sun Muqing blushed, lowered her head shyly, and remained silent.
It was at this moment that the last item for auction was finally brought to the stage.
This item was the highlight of the entire auction, naturally the most valuable and precious of all the items.
But when the auction items were presented on the stage, Ye Feng showed a hint of disappointment.
Because it was merely a medicinal herb, and one that was of little use to him.
"Please look, everyone. This is the legendary elixir—the Heavenly Fortune Grass! If this Heavenly Fortune Grass falls into the hands of an alchemist, it can be refined into the Heavenly Fortune Pill, which can greatly increase the chances of a breakthrough, and it has no negative effects or aftereffects."
"Most importantly, the Heavenly Fortune Pill is effective for both Body Tempering Realm and Sainthood Realm martial artists! Regardless of whether a martial artist is at a high or low level, they can take the Heavenly Fortune Pill to increase their chances of breaking through!"
The auctioneer on stage, Li Yanling, shouted, trying her best to heat up the atmosphere and get the guests excited.
It was at this moment that Ye Feng sensed a strange fluctuation of true energy.
He immediately looked at the woman to his left, and saw that the woman's appearance and makeup were very glamorous, giving people a charming feeling.
The fluctuation of true energy just now came from her. Ye Feng has already determined that she is a martial artist in the middle stage of the Divine Travel Realm!
Night Breeze frowned slightly, a hint of doubt arising in his heart.
Although a mid-stage Divine Realm martial artist is nothing in Ye Feng's eyes, he is already considered a top expert in China.
It should be noted that Chang Taiqing, the president of the Nine Dragons Society of China, is currently only at the Saint Realm, while the four Guardian War Gods are all at the peak of the Divine Travel Realm, just a little short of reaching the Transcendent Realm.
This woman was in the mid-stage of the Divine Realm, and she was not far from becoming one of the Four Great War Gods.
Such a person suddenly appeared in Zhongzhou City, without Liu Quanling, the guardian of Zhongzhou City, by his side.
That's very strange!
And just a few minutes later, the auction's grand finale, the Heavenly Fortune Grass, was successfully acquired by this woman for a staggering 35 million.
This only increased the suspicion surrounding her.
"What's wrong, Ye Feng?" Sun Muqing noticed that Ye Feng's eyes were not quite right, so she asked.
Ye Feng glanced at the woman and said, "That woman is in the mid-stage of the Divine Travel Realm, and she is hiding her face and behaving suspiciously. I suspect there is something wrong with her identity."
"Then we..."
Before Sun Muqing could finish speaking, Ye Feng shook his head and said, "You don't need to worry about it. I'll investigate her later. Let's go home now."
After saying that, Ye Feng led Sun Muqing, Jiang Lingxuan, and Bai Yue out of the Tianyuan Trading Company building and got into the car with Xi Yao.
Xi Yao drove slowly, chatting and laughing with Sun Muqing and the others sitting in the back seat.
Seeing that the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was so harmonious, Ye Feng felt relieved.
But halfway through the drive, Xi Yao revealed a strange smile, and Sun Muqing, Jiang Lingxuan, and Bai Yue also sensed the aura that was secretly following them.
“That guy did follow us,” Xi Yao said.
“He is indeed very bold,” Ye Feng said.
After a pause, Ye Feng continued, "Let's take care of him before we get home, Mom. Park the car on the side of the road and wait for me. I'll deal with him."
"Hurry up," Xi Yao said with a smile.
Neither Xi Yao nor Sun Muqing were worried about Ye Feng's safety.
After all, Ye Feng is a Void King Realm Immortal!
In the sub-realm, practically no one can rival Night Wind!
Because the spiritual energy in the sub-realm is relatively thin, once someone reaches the level of a human immortal, they will definitely leave the sub-realm and go to the immortal realm.
If it weren't for the fact that Lingyue Realm is Ye Feng's hometown, Ye Feng would probably have already taken Sun Muqing and the others to find a celestial realm to settle down and cultivate.
Moreover, Ye Feng also possesses the Creation Heavenly Wheel, a heaven-reaching spiritual treasure. Although the Creation Heavenly Wheel's primordial spirit is incomplete and fragmented, its power is undeniable.
