After Xiao Qiang finished speaking in Meng Hongchen's ear, Meng Hongchen was stunned for a moment, and then his originally fair face suddenly turned red.

"You! You're a hooligan!"

Meng Hongchen thought of something and pushed Xiao Qiang away. The sudden increase in decibels attracted everyone's attention.

"What happened?" Xiao Hongchen came to Meng Hongchen, staring at Xiao Qiang, as if he was going to beat him up.

"I don't know. Just now, Senior Sister Meng insisted on asking me why my cultivation speed was so fast. I had no choice but to tell her the truth, and then Senior Sister Meng pushed me away." Xiao Qiang spread his hands, looking innocent.

"What did you say to Meng?"

"I told Senior Meng that I cultivated so fast because there was a bed in my room made of Ten Thousand Years of Mysterious Ice Marrow. If Senior Meng needed it, I could lend it to her. But I don't know what Senior Meng was thinking. She slapped me down before I could finish my sentence."

Meng Hongchen: “…”

"When did you become an ice spirit master?"

"Oh, it has been a long time ago. You never paid much attention to it. You never thought about what I usually use to pick my teeth after meals." Xiao Qiang said as an ice needle appeared between his fingers.

"So you have twin spirits? Wait, so you rely on the fusion of spirit rings to increase your spirit power so much in a short period of time?"

"It was also thanks to some of the medicines Senior Sister Meng gave me that I wanted to lend the Ten Thousand Years Mysterious Ice Marrow bed to Senior Sister Meng."

"The medicine that Meng gave you?" Xiao Hongchen looked at Meng Hongchen. If he remembered correctly, the extra medicine from Meng Hongchen seemed to be taken from him.

"It's me you should thank."

"Oh, thank you, nephew."

"You fucking bastard!"

After a brief interlude, Xiao Qiang waited for the auction as usual.

Among them, Xiao Qiang bought the eighth-level soul guide weapon, the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Sword, which was originally supposed to be taken by Dai Yueheng, and Xiao Qiang bought the batch of fixed-type soul island shells for 610,000 yuan.

Although Xiao Qiang was not short of fixed-type soul guide shells, fortunately the price was not expensive for Xiao Qiang at the moment, so he just raised his hand and bought it.

Xiao Qiang picked and chose and bought some of the remaining things, and soon he got the soul bone of the Ice Jade Scorpion.

After comforting the Ice Emperor, Xiao Qiang began to bid for the soul bone. Due to Xiao Qiang's wealth, the price rose quickly. But when Xiao Qiang raised the price of the soul bone to 30 million gold soul coins and someone was still bidding, Xiao Qiang gave up.

Xiao Qiang already possesses the soul skill Ice Explosion, and he did not intend to use that soul bone to absorb. He originally intended to save a life, which is better than building a seven-level pagoda. However, 30 million gold soul coins were already the best Xiao Qiang had done, and there was no need to obtain a soul bone that was of no use.

After all, the Ice Jade Scorpion soul bone is not an external soul bone, so it cannot be fused with Xiao Qiang's external soul bone. And Xiao Qiang has no other users of the Ultimate Ice, so even if he gives it to others, they will not be able to absorb it.

…………

In the most luxurious box of the Starlight Hypermarket, Princess Xu Jiujiu of the Star Luo Empire was reporting to Emperor Xu Jiawei of the Star Luo Empire about the auction of the Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone.

Xu Jiawei sighed helplessly. "You did the right thing. Even if it means losing some money, you can't let the Sun Moon Empire really get this top-level soul bone. It's just a pity."

The Star Luo Emperor stroked the soul bone of the Ice Jade Scorpion. Soul bones could either be sold for money or absorbed by himself. But it was obvious that the Star Luo Empire did not have a powerful ice-attribute soul master, otherwise such a top-notch soul bone would be enough to enhance the combat power of the Star Luo Empire's Protector of the Nation Douluo.

"Brother, it's not a pity. My Xingluo Empire does not have a particularly powerful Ice-attributed Protector of the Nation, but we can use this soul bone to allow the Xingluo Empire to add a powerful Protector of the Nation."

Hearing Xu Jiujiu's words, the eyes of Xu Jiawei, the emperor of Xingluo Empire, lit up. "Oh? What do you mean?"

"That's right, my royal brother. This time, there is an ice-attributed soul master named Ling Luochen in Shrek Academy. Her grandfather Ling Tian is a level 89 soul douluo. It seems that he came to Xingluo City to help the students of Shrek suppress the evil fire in their bodies. This senior Ling Tian is only one step away from becoming a Titled Douluo. Absorbing soul rings can enhance soul power, and absorbing top soul bones can also cause fluctuations in one's soul power. This soul bone can be the final step for senior Ling Tian to become a Titled Douluo."

Hearing what Jiujiu said, Emperor Xingluo stood up. "Jiujiu, the Xingluo Empire is so grateful to you!"

"Although exchanging a top-notch soul bone for a Titled Douluo may seem a bit of a loss, it is obviously the best to have one more Titled Douluo at this time. What's more, that Titled Douluo has connections with Shrek. A soul bone is not only exchanged for a Titled Douluo, but also comes with a certain relationship with Shrek. This soul bone is too worth it at this time!"

"Quick, tell Senior Ling Tian about this!"

"Brother, please be patient and leave this matter to me."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

With the consent of Emperor Xingluo to let Princess Jiujiu carry out the project personally, the project was established and even started very quickly. It didn't take long for Ling Luochen's grandfather Ling Tian to feel like he had found a lucky jackpot.

Top-level soul bones can be passed down. Although the price is that he has to sacrifice his life, the age of a piece of Ice Jade Scorpion's soul bone is even close to 70,000 years. This soul bone is worth sacrificing your life for! Especially since he can use this soul bone to break through to the Title Douluo, this is simply going to greatly prosper the Ling family! Therefore, Ling Tian agreed to join the Xing Luo Empire without any hesitation. Not only him, but the entire Ling family became the power of the Xing Luo Empire under the temptation of this soul bone, waiting for their patriarch to break through to the Title Douluo with the help of this soul bone.

A family with a Titled Douluo would be given some respect even by the royal family in the Star Luo Empire. This was the value of the Titled Douluo in the Douluo II era.

Although the value of this title is far less than that of Dou Yi, the Titled Douluo of this era are also the first-tier nobles.

Even the duke and even the royal Titled Douluo himself can regard himself as an elder. After all, Xu Jiujiu, who can be called the eldest princess of the Xingluo Empire, calls a level 93 Titled Douluo "Grandma Manyi".

"Welcome to join our Xingluo Empire."

"Your Majesty is too polite. It is my honor and my family's honor to serve the Xing Luo Empire."

Both sides gave each other enough face. The emperor of the Star Luo Empire did not say that you never wanted to become the Protector of the Star Luo Empire when you didn't give me the soul bone. Ling Luochen's grandfather Ling Tian also did not say that if you had this thing, you should take it out earlier. If you had taken it out earlier, I would have joined earlier.

In a very short time, the two of them exchanged superficial greetings, and then the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire personally handed the Ice Jade Scorpion's soul bone to Ling Tian with both hands.

"Senior, without further ado, please accept this soul bone and escort our Xingluo Empire."

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will live up to your trust!"
