Below, the auction continued. However, Lin Ray did not have the slightest desire to bid for the items at the back of the central store.
Now that he had completed his business at the Star Cloud Auction, he should prepare to work hard in the Azure Mystic Imperial Dynasty.
When he thought of the financial power of the entire sect behind him, a sense of helplessness welled up in his heart.
However, every time he thought of the mission issued by the system, this sense of helplessness became the motivation for him to work hard to improve his cultivation. Only then could he complete the mission and not be destroyed by the system.
"Young Mistress, it's not good."
Just as Lin Ray was bored to death and did not know what to do, in the room of the Talisman Association on the fourth floor, Snake Duke came to Feng Miaoyan's side with an unsightly expression and whispered in her ear.
"Hmm?"
She was very clear about Elder Qiong's strength. It was normal for him to be calm when dealing with matters, but now …
"The person we sent out just now is …"
"What's wrong?" A bad premonition welled up in her heart. From Elder Qiong's expression, she could make a guess.
Something might have happened to the disciple they sent out just now.
Sure enough, just as this thought came to her mind, she heard Snake Duke's voice.
"That disciple is dead, and …" As he spoke, he pointed to the door and said earnestly, "The corpse is lying at the door."
"What?"
She stood up abruptly and looked in the direction of the door with an unsightly expression. She was inexplicably horrified. No one present had noticed the corpse at all. If the other party had wanted to kill her, she would have become a cold corpse by now.
What made her even more incredulous was that even with Snake Duke's strength, he did not notice when the corpse was placed.
According to Snake Duke's information, the corpse was cold. He must have been dead for a long time.
Snake Duke's gaze fell on the room on the third floor where Lin Ray was. Her heart was filled with fear. Yes, fear. The dignified Young Mistress of the Talisman Association was now filled with fear.
Snake Duke looked at the Young Mistress' expression and sighed inwardly. Indeed, it was hard not to feel fear. Just the other party's method of placing the corpse at the door without anyone noticing was enough to make them tremble in fear.
At that moment, no one in the room looked down on Lin Ray. It was impossible for someone with such strength to remain unknown in the Saints' World.
She understood that no matter how many people she sent, it would be the same. Instead of losing soldiers and generals, it would be better to turn big problems into small ones, and small ones into nothing. One more friend would mean one more path.
Thinking about it, Feng Miaoyan's complexion improved a little. She ordered the guard at the side, "Go and bury that brother. As for his family, compensate them with the highest compensation of the Guild and receive the protection of the Guild."
"Plop."
"Thank you, Miss, for your benevolence. I will deal with it now."
The three of them were wearing the same clothes as the corpse. More importantly, they had been brothers with the deceased for many years. Even though their brothers were dead, the guild had already done everything they could to protect them.
The Talisman Guild was already doing very well. If it were other powers, they probably wouldn't be able to do what Feng Miaoyan did.
Snake Duke praised Feng Miaoyan's actions. Feng Miaoyan was both brave and smart. She was indeed a great talent.
Unfortunately, Feng Miaoyan was a girl and not suitable for men. Otherwise …
The death of the Talisman Guild's disciple wasn't publicized. It was silently covered up.
Lin Ray wasn't surprised by this at all. He even agreed with this way of dealing with it. Of course, if the other party was deliberately stirring up trouble, he would persist until the end.
Although Lin Ray was afraid of trouble, he wasn't a coward. If there was trouble, he could just eliminate everything.
Simple, violent, and effective.
The Star Cloud Auction didn't change because of Lin Ray's actions. It was still very lively. Everyone was trying their best to bid for things that they liked and were useful to them.
The four major guilds and the Thousand Treasures Sect made a few moves midway, but Lin Ray didn't make a move at all.
Everyone was very puzzled by Lin Ray's silence. In just a moment, this silence was magnified by the crowd.
Some said that Lin Ray had spent more than 40 million because he was out of money. Many people believed this.
Some said that he had offended the four major guilds today and wanted to restrain himself.
Some said that Lin Ray's guts were broken and he didn't dare to make a move again. All sorts of rumors flew, but Lin Ray didn't give any explanation.
From his point of view, the benevolent saw benevolence, and the wise saw wisdom. There were some idiots who wanted to fill in the blanks. He couldn't do anything about it.
What Lin Ray was thinking about now was none other than the central shop. After all, he had spent so much money. He naturally had to get the money back from the higher-ups and use the profits to make more money for the sect.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to raise the sect to the level that the system wanted him to do all by himself.
Thinking about this, the room fell silent. Lin Xian`er, who was leaning against the window, looked down in boredom. The auction items were bought one by one. She wasn't interested in these items at all.
From her point of view, the items that were auctioned earlier weren't even as good as her father's.
Take weapons for example. She remembered that the best grade of the items auctioned earlier was merely a high-grade divine weapon.
Just the items in her interspatial storage were as numerous as the hairs on an ox … Eh, of course, it was an exaggeration, but it was truly a dazzling array of items. Sabers, spears, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, tridents, whatever she wanted, she had it.
Even if she lost one item every day, it would take a very long time before she could empty her interspatial storage.
"Alright everyone, next up is the new batch of slaves that the Starcloud Auction House obtained. Don't underestimate them, they all have great backgrounds."
Seeing the confusion on the faces of the crowd, Liao Chen laughed. After which, he continued, "These people are all born from the heavens and earth. Their cultivation bases are innately strong, and their spiritual roots are extremely terrifying. A single one of them can fight against four to five people of the same level."
"Born from the heavens and earth?"
Liao Chen's words attracted the attention of everyone present. Born from the heavens and earth? This couldn't be a joke.
Born from the heavens and earth, it was only when Hongmeng was first formed and the desolate era was born that there were living beings born from the heavens and earth.
Right now, no one knew how long had passed since the desolate era. Now that Liao Chen suddenly said that the heavens and earth were born from the heavens and earth, no one would believe such words.
But these words caused Lin Xian`er's interest to be piqued. She had seen living beings born from the heavens and earth before. For example, Xie Feng was a living being born from the heavens and earth.
Taotie, Pixiu, Devourer, etc. These were all living beings born from the heavens and earth.
Her gaze was fixated on the stage below. At this moment, her interest was piqued. As for her father, Lin Ray, he was still in deep contemplation and didn't hear what Liao Chen said earlier.
"Manager Liao, you must be joking. Living beings born from the heavens and earth, do you think they still exist?"
"Even if they do, in this world, would you auction off such a good item?"
Indeed, how could the Starcloud Commerce be willing to auction off such a good item? Wouldn't it be better if they kept them in captivity?
