After Lin Feng and his group scanned the room, they each sat down one after another. Of course, Xiao Yixian and Feng Qing’er were naturally pulled by Lin Feng to sit at his sides. The three of them pressed close together, sharing a single sofa.

As for Tian Huo Zun Zhe, he sat alone on another sofa, isolated. Watching the sweet scene of the trio, Tian Huo Zun Zhe helplessly shook his head.

In his heart, he was already thinking—when the auction ended, should he go to Myriad Flowers Pavilion and indulge himself for once?

After all, he had been trapped for hundreds of years in that sunless underground world. Now that he had finally escaped and been revived, yet every day he had to watch this brat and his women flaunt their affection.

Who could stand this?

”Its fine, I’ve been imprisoned for centuries, and I deserve some enjoyment, don’t I?”

Consoling himself with that thought, Tian Huo Zun Zhe decided he would definitely let loose later. He would make those women understand the true strengths of a Dou Zun powerhouse.

At the same time, several more maids walked into the VIP room where they sat.

They moved in perfect order, bringing trays of fruit and hot tea, which they carefully placed on the coffee table beside the sofa.

Once everything was arranged, the maid who had led them there stepped forward respectfully and said, ”Honored guests, there is a button on the coffee table beside your sofa. Should you need anything, you may press it to summon us.”

”Alright, we know. You can leave now.”

Lin Feng cast a casual glance at the button, then waved his hand dismissively.

”Yes.”

The maids responded in unison, then withdrew with the same orderly grace.

”Looks like there are really quite a few Dou Zun powerhouses attending this auction. I wonder if the other regions of Central Plains also have as many Dou Zun experts as the Western Desolate Region.”

Watching another unfamiliar elder being led into the hall below by a maid, Lin Feng smacked his lips and sighed in admiration.

”Heh, don’t tell me you’re not even a local of Central Plains?”

Hearing him, Feng Qing’er, who was leaning on his right side, suddenly covered her mouth and laughed.

On the other sofa, Tian Huo Zun Zhe also covered his forehead, unable to bear watching.

It was all because, over the past days, Lin Feng had been too exhausted from his soul power being depleted and had been asleep most of the time.

After his revival, he had been busy helping Xiao Yixian condense the Poison Pill. He hadn’t had the time to give these two country bumpkins a proper lesson.

”Uh… did I say something wrong?”

Seeing their expressions, Lin Feng asked, his confidence faltering.

At that, Feng Qing’er explained, ”How could this tiny Western Desolate Region possibly compare to even a single region of Central Plains? Don’t be fooled by the abundance of Dou Zun here.

It’s only because this place is too cramped and the population too small. A Dou Zun powerhouse here can barely manage a single city and a few nearby villages.”

”As for the five regions of Central Plains, the land is vast beyond compare, and the situation is entirely different. Take the Northern Region where Wind Lightning Pavilion is located—setting aside the beast clans, just among humans alone, there are hundreds of thousands of cities.

Under Wind Lightning Pavilion’s four halls, there are hundreds of subordinate forces. And beneath those forces, they each govern over dozens, even scores of cities.”

”Therefore, in other regions, the headquarters of two forces that possess Dou Zun experts are often separated by dozens, or even hundreds of cities. If you were living in those normal regions, meeting a Dou Zun expert would naturally be extremely difficult.”

”In contrast, here in the Western Desolate Region, the neighboring city of one Dou Zun force’s headquarters is often another Dou Zun force’s headquarters.

Across the entire Western Desolate Region, there are fewer than a hundred cities, yet there are more than twenty human Dou Zun experts. That’s why the people here are much more likely to encounter a Dou Zun.”

”However, don’t be fooled by how many Dou Zun there are in the Western Desolate Region. If you were to scatter all these Dou Zun into the Northern Region of Central Plains, they wouldn’t even make a ripple.

They would all be diluted, and you might have to wear yourself out running across dozens of cities just to have the chance of meeting one Dou Zun.”

”But if you go to the Pill Region in the Central Plains, the Dou Zun experts there are even more concentrated. Just the Holy Pill City where the Pill Tower’s headquarters is located… I don’t even know how many Dou Zun live there.

After all, there are quite a number of eighth-tier alchemists there, making it much easier to obtain the high-tier pills that Dou Zun need.”

Feng Qing’er finished in one breath, then gave Lin Feng a side glance.

”Uh, you can’t really blame me for that. Back then, I had only been wandering outside for a few months, barely learned a few things, when I was chased into the Western Desolate Region by the Dou Zun experts of the Earth Force Sect and the Golden Body Sect.”

Lin Feng gave her soft, slender waist a playful squeeze, as though reproaching her for mocking him, then said helplessly.

”Huh? Why would those two Dou Zun chase after you? Don’t tell me you killed some of their juniors?”

Ignoring the mischievous hand at her waist, Feng Qing’er instead asked curiously.

Hearing this, Lin Feng shook his head. ”Not that. Earlier, in the Western Region of the Central Plains, a Dou Zun’s Ruins opened. Nearly everyone who went in was wiped out, do you know about that?”

”You mean the ruins of Lue Feng Zun Zhe? That incident caused a huge uproar across the Central Plains. I’ve heard a little about it.”

At this point, Feng Qing’er suddenly paused. Her delicate face then turned to shock. ”Don’t tell me… you were among the few who actually made it out alive.”

”Mm. Not only that, we took almost all the storage rings of those adventurers, as well as the inheritance of that Lue Feng Zun Zhe. But just as we came out with the other survivors, we were ambushed by the Earth Force Sect and Golden Body Sect Dou Zun. We almost died there.”

Lin Feng nodded, his expression showing a hint of lingering fear.

Feng Qing’er’s brows furrowed tightly.

What she thought of at this moment wasn’t the treasures within the ruins, nor the spoils taken from those adventurers.

What shook her was that after they had parted ways, Lin Feng had encountered such mortal danger.

After a brief moment of hesitation, Feng Qing’er bit her lip. Between her man’s safety and her sect’s secret techniques, she ultimately chose the former.

She gently brushed her jade-like hand across the storage ring on her finger. With a flash of light, two scrolls shining with dazzling silver radiance appeared in her hand.

”When you saved me that day, I noticed your speed was incredibly fast. Even Wind Lightning Pavilion’s Three Thousand Lightning Movement couldn’t compare to it. However, the Three Thousand Lightning Movement has a secret follow-up technique, called the Three Thousand Lightning Illusionary Body.”

”This Three Thousand Lightning Illusionary Body is the true treasure of my Wind Lightning Pavilion. From what I know, it is a mysterious Dou Technique passed down from ancient times. Although it is classified as High-Grade Earth Class, its power can rival that of a Heaven Class!”

”Once mastered, this technique allows you to create an illusory body. And the illusory body’s strength will be almost identical to your real body. As long as the true body does not die, the illusory body is indestructible!”
