"It seems I was overthinking it." Leng Lixin breathed a sigh of relief. Indeed, the Venerable One was just using it as a pastime when he was training with his clone.
How could I possibly fall in love with that woman?
How could a lowly woman from a lowly continent be worthy of His Majesty?
Such a despicable person is not worthy of being her enemy.
Leng Lixin's lips curled up slightly.
He turned and left the Demon Palace.
======
Slave farm.
It housed dozens of animal slaves, all piled together like trash carelessly tossed aside, their faces covered in a mixture of yellow mud and blood.
The clothes he wore were merely covering his body.
These animal slaves were either kidnapped, orphaned, and had nowhere to go.
Some were born in slave farms, and these were often the most tragic, as both their parents were slaves.
Born into slavery, every day is a struggle between life and death! Surviving to adulthood is as difficult as climbing to heaven.
"Today's beast is the Iron-Blooded Wolf Beast! A Xuan-rank demonic beast!"
A voice rang out, and the onlookers became excited.
They all placed bets.
"I bet on number seven, the beast slave! He won me a lot of money in the last round!"
"I think number nine is good. One hundred spirit stones, number nine!"
The people who come here for entertainment are all rich kids. In their eyes, these animal slaves are nothing more than a diversion in their boring lives.
They can't even be considered human, let alone animals.
In the corner.
The man, curled up in a ball, raised his head; his eyes were bloodshot.
At this moment, the wolf was released from its cage.
Roar—! It let out a furious roar, clearly indicating that it had been given some kind of drug to excite the monster so much.
The wolf pounced on the beast slaves, and soon most of them were injured. It grabbed one of the slaves and tore open his chest with its sharp claws.
In an instant, intestines and internal organs were spilled all over the ground, a bloody scene that made people want to vomit.
"As expected of a Xuan-rank demonic beast! It's really powerful! Much stronger than the Di-rank beast from the last battle!"
The spoiled young man's eyes lit up with excitement.
Soon, the wolves had slaughtered most of the beast slaves, and some of the beast slaves simply gave up resisting.
In the end, only number nine, number seven, number ten, and the man in the corner remained.
He stayed hidden there the whole time, escaping most of the attacks.
Beast Slave Number Nine discovered him and deliberately lured the monster towards the man's location.
Roar! The wolf pounced.
Zero, who hadn't moved an inch, opened his eyes.
He grabbed the wolf's claws and snapped them in two, yet there was no trace of spiritual energy emanating from him.
They relied solely on brute force.
Numbers nine and ten, who were closest to the camera, were stunned. They were the closest and had the most direct view.
By the time Zero noticed the chilling killing intent in his eyes, it was already too late.
The moment he turned around, Zero had already grabbed his shoulder.
The force was completely suppressed, and a cracking sound came from the shoulder as he was ruthlessly killed.
The other number nine wanted to escape, but the slave farm was only so big.
He hadn't run more than a few steps before he was torn to shreds by Zero.
Zero raised his head amidst a pile of flesh and blood, his eyes, like those of a wild beast, looking at the spectators in the stands.
Those who met Zero's gaze gasped.
"Zero wins!"
As the sound faded.
The owner of the beast slave farm laughed heartily and announced loudly, "Beast slave number zero, starting price 500,000 spirit stones! Each bid increases by 30,000."
Inside the private room.
A woman's condescending voice rang out: "Buy him."
"yes."
"One million!"
A richly dressed man emerged, a bone chain hanging from his waist, and a miniature human head—or rather… an infant's head—on his shoulder, painted gold with gold powder. Under the lights of the slave market, it emitted a faint glow that was impossible to ignore.
Upon seeing this person, the people below whispered among themselves: "Isn't this Lord Gui Yan, who serves the princess of the Azure Dragon Kingdom?"
"The eldest princess of the Azure Dragon Kingdom?" Someone gasped. "That legendary number one genius of the Azure Dragon Kingdom?"
"Indeed, this Lord Guiyan is the Princess's personal bodyguard. The person in the private room must be the Princess herself."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the private room with admiration; that was a martial arts genius!
"I've heard that this Princess is only seventeen years old, yet she's already at the Spirit Emperor Realm! A true genius!"
"A seventeen-year-old Spirit Emperor Realm cultivator? I simply can't believe it!"
The crowd whispered among themselves.
The discussion wasn't loud, but it wasn't quiet either; everyone present possessed some level of cultivation.
He heard it clearly, and his gaze toward Gui Yan was filled with admiration.
I've heard that this princess is not only a martial arts genius, but also incredibly beautiful! She's a rare beauty.
"Aaaaaah!" Upon hearing the sounds from the private room, Zero seemed to be stimulated by something, painfully trying to break free of the ropes, letting out an angry roar.
"One million!" The slave owner grinned from ear to ear. "Who else can offer a higher price?"
Buying a beast slave for one million spirit stones—only the Azure Dragon Kingdom's royal family could afford that.
Two million.
Upon hearing this voice, Gui Yan frowned and looked towards the private room opposite.
Who on earth dares to oppose the Azure Dragon Royal Family?
Three million.
"Five million." In the private room, Liu Yue gently stroked the tail feathers of the Chongming bird, a slight smile playing on her lips, and said casually.
"Six million."
Feng Wan, sitting in the private room, frowned in displeasure.
Who is this woman, that she dares to oppose me?
