"The time limit for the auction has expired. Since no one has chosen to bid, then … I won't be able to bid for this item …"
Seeing the indifferent expressions of the audience, Yanhong smiled and began to announce. However, just as Yanhong was about to finish, a voice rang out. It attracted the attention of everyone present, including the young man in the cage.
"One million and five hundred thousand. I bid one million and five hundred thousand. I want this person," said Lin Ray.
In the Water Moon Pavilion, Lin Ray looked down at the audience with an amused smile. As soon as Yanhong ordered the servants to bring out the Strangle Hell Physique, Lin Ray had already decided that he wanted this person.
"Re … Really?"
It had come too suddenly. Yanhong had thought that no one would bid for it. After all, the time limit was already up. She had thought that the Water Moon Pavilion would bid for it, but after an hour had passed, she had given up. But now …
"I don't want to say it a second time!" Looking at Captivating Red, Linley said coldly.
"Uh …" Yanhong stared blankly for a moment, then nodded repeatedly. "Okay, okay!"
Now that the auction item could be sold, it would be a perfect addition to her performance. Yanhong was naturally willing to do so.
Smiling, she swept her gaze over the audience and announced, "One million and five hundred thousand. One million and five hundred thousand. Is there anyone …"
"One million and five hundred thousand going once …"
Although she knew that no one would bid for it, the rules were like that. As the auctioneer, she could not break the rules.
"One million and five hundred thousand going twice …"
"One million and five hundred thousand going thrice …"
"Bang … Sold!"
The hammer struck, and the auction ended. Yanhong felt much more at ease. After all, as long as the hammer didn't make a sound, anything was possible.
"Congratulations to the Water Moon Pavilion for bidding for the Strangle Hell Physique at one million and five hundred thousand."
She turned around, intending to signal the servant to bring the cage to the Water Moon Pavilion on the second floor.
"Just leave it there. I'll handle it myself!" Within the Watermoon Pavilion, Linley watched the attendant's actions, then rose to his feet and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure flickered. He teleported and disappeared from the Water Moon Pavilion. In the next moment, a young man suddenly appeared next to the iron cage on the auction stage, causing everyone to be on guard.
"Eh … this …" At this moment, Jie Yang, who was still in the Water Moon Pavilion, saw Lin Ray's actions and the corners of his mouth twitched. Then, he restrained himself and collected all of the auction items on the floor. Then, he quickly chased after Lin Ray and landed on the auction stage.
The actions of Lin Ray and Ye Zichen had completely attracted the attention of everyone present. There was shock, fear, doubt, and even a trace of desire to explore.
Looking at the two people who had appeared, the crowd fell silent instantly. They could feel the cultivation bases of Lin Ray and Lin Fan. No matter which sect they were in, they would be at the level of Grand Elders or Sect Masters or Elders.
As the auctioneer, Yanhong naturally saw them. She was stunned for a moment before recovering. Looking at the sudden appearance of Lin Ray and Ye Zichen, Yanhong smiled and said, "Senior, you are …"
Yanhong had seen Lin Ray, a guest of the Water Moon Pavilion, before. So, she could understand why Lin Ray would ask such a question.
"I'm from the Water Moon Pavilion. I'm the one who bid for this Purgatory Body!" replied Lin Ray. Then, he slowly walked towards the iron cage.
As for Jie Yang, he appeared in front of Yanhong. It seemed that whatever Yanhong wanted to ask next, he would directly refuse.
Facing Lin Ray's straightforwardness, Yanhong smiled and quickly took a step back. Since the main character had already arrived, there was nothing for her to do here.
She retreated to the side and quietly watched what the young man in front of her wanted to do. After so many years, this was the first time she had seen such a situation, so she was very curious. She wanted to know what Lin Ray wanted to do next.
Ignoring the gazes of the surrounding people, Linley stared at the youngster in the cage with a smile on his face. Standing next to the cage, he said, "What is your name? Where do you come from? Why do you hate me so much?
"…"
Lin Ray didn't open his mouth. Instead, he ignored Lin Ray's question as if he didn't hear it. From the beginning to the end, the young man's eyes were filled with hatred as he glared at the person who had taken him down.
"Hmm?"
Seeing that the young man didn't respond, Lin Ray patiently asked again. When it came to talents, he didn't care about such details. "I'll ask you one more time. Tell me what I asked before and I can help you."
After saying that, Lin Ray looked at the young man in the cage and was stunned. Then, Lin Ray waved his hand and destroyed the cage that locked the young man. The mysterious gold chains that shackled the young man's hands were also destroyed. At this moment, the young man regained his freedom.
Looking at him, Lin Ray smiled. "I've already expressed my most sincere response. For the sake of fairness, shouldn't you tell me too?"
"This …"
At the side, seeing Lin Ray's actions, Yanhong was stunned. Obviously, she didn't expect Lin Ray's actions.
She wasn't the only one. Everyone else present was the same. They had never imagined that Linley would buy such a person, and even treat him in such a manner.
"You …" At this moment, the young man was also stunned. His face was filled with confusion. "You're letting me go just like that? Why are you doing this? "
He was very puzzled. He didn't understand why the person in front of him was doing this. Heh, without a cultivation method, he was like a ruin. He really couldn't figure out what he had that could attract the person in front of him except for the Suppressing Prison.
Lin Ray naturally understood the young man's puzzlement. He smiled and said, "There's no reason. If I said it was for fun, would you believe me?"
"Uh …"
These words caused everyone in the surroundings to be stunned once more. Who would believe that you're spending 1.5 million divine crystals just to be happy? I'm afraid even you don't believe it!
This thought appeared in everyone's mind, but they didn't dare to say it out loud.
At the side, Jie Yang, who was standing at the side, saw the young man dilly-dallying and felt anxious for him. He then urged, "I say, kid, hurry up and say it. I'm telling you, if you don't say it now, there won't be another chance like this!"
Others didn't know how powerful Lin Ray was, but he knew it very well. Not only did he experience the lightning tribulation in the Ancient Corpse Trove, but he also experienced the red dragon of a late stage Dao Fruit Saint. Therefore, when he saw the young man dilly-dallying, Jie Yang couldn't help but ask.
"Uh … I …" Hearing Jie Yang's words, although the young man didn't understand, there was a voice in his heart telling him to answer.
The young man struggled with the voice in his heart, but in the end, he couldn't resist it. He instantly closed his eyes and tears welled up in his eyes. He clenched his fists and his nails dug into his flesh. A trace of scarlet blood flowed out.
At this moment, his mind and curiosity completely collapsed. His body couldn't help but tremble.
"Hmm?"
Lin Ray was puzzled by the young man's action. Other than revenge for the destruction of his family, Lin Ray couldn't think of any other reason.
He didn't say anything. He stood there quietly and stared at the young man. At this moment, Lin Ray turned from an expert to an ordinary listener.
"I … I am the young master of the Xie family, Xie Tianchen. My father is the head of the Xie family, Xie Ding. Originally, our family lived a very perfect life. It could be said that we stood aloof from worldly affairs."
After saying that, the young man who originally had a gentle smile on his face suddenly had a malevolent expression. "But … but not long ago, a great battle occurred."
"Oh?" Hearing the young man's words, Lin Ray came to a realization. It was as he guessed. This young man's background was not simple. Earlier, he could tell that the aura emitted from the young man's body was not like that of an ordinary person.
"Mn!" With ice-cold hatred, the young man stared at Lin Ray. His face was malevolent and he gnashed his teeth. It was as if Lin Ray was his enemy. He wanted to skin Lin Ray and drink his blood.
"Not long ago, a group of people suddenly barged in. Without any explanation, they began to kill people. They didn't differentiate between men and women, old and young. Even … even my two-year-old sister … was …"
"My father led the family to resist. However, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great. Three thousand six hundred and fifty-four people were killed mercilessly. The two sides fought for two days and two nights. In the end, the family was annihilated, and I … I …"
"My father's subordinates protected me with their lives. In the end, they threw me into the Mountains of Infinity to save my life."
"Hmm?" Hearing this, Lin Ray nodded. "How's the overall strength of your family? How's the strength of the people who invaded your family? "
A family with more than three thousand people was no longer a small family. However, no one knew about this incident. This made Lin Ray very curious.
"My father is a Peak Late-stage Ultimate God. My family is … a family of inheritance. I don't know how strong they are."
"As for the people who came, I guess … I guess they are all in the Sage Realm because my father had a hard time in their hands. He was even killed by one of them in an instant!" After saying that, Xie Tianchen hugged his head and squatted on the ground in pain.
"Saint Realm?"
Looking at Xie Tianchen who was crying because of his family's annihilation, Lin Ray was stunned. Being targeted by a Saint was not a small matter. Moreover, the Xie family must have something that was worth a Saint's attention. Otherwise …
Of course, there was one thing that Lin Ray did not understand. Why would a Saint appear in the Realm of the Gods? Moreover, Xie Tianchen's words sounded very familiar. There was more than one Saint. The only possibility was that those Saints were probably from the Upper Realm.
Regarding this matter, Linley knew that it had already exceeded the scope of his ability to understand it.
However, since he wanted to subdue them, this matter was no longer a problem. Moreover … his enemy seemed to be even stronger!
The Holy World's Heavenly Court was not to be underestimated. If so, those low-level Saints were still a problem …?
Thinking about this, the worry in his heart disappeared. Looking at the crying Xie Tianchen, Lin Ray paused and said, "Follow me and submit to me. I will give you the power to take revenge."
"No matter who the other party is, I will be your strong backing. As long as you submit to me, your hatred will be my hatred. What do you think?"
"Hmm? Submit … submit to you? " Lin Ray's words stunned Xie Tianchen. Logically speaking, he had already been bought by the person in front of him. It could be said that he had become the person in front of him's slave. However …
"That's right. Submit to me and take me as your master. I will give you the power to destroy everything. What do you think?"
"I … I …" Hearing this benefit that was like a meat pie falling from the sky, the first answer in his mind was to agree. However … with the previous experience of having his sect destroyed, he was afraid. He was afraid that this might be a trap.
He did not understand why the person in front of him would think so highly of a piece of trash like him. He … he did not dare to agree.
"What? You're not willing? "
Seeing Xie Tianchen's hesitation, confusion, and indecisiveness, Linley was stunned. He felt a bit of anger in his heart, but when he thought of Xie Tianchen's experiences, Linley felt at ease.
Sighing, his anger dissipated. He slowly said, "I know what you're thinking. You're worried that this is a trap, and you feel that you're a piece of trash, right?"
"You … how did you …?" Shock. He was shocked that the person in front of him could see through his thoughts.
"Heh …" Seeing Xie Tianchen's expression, Lin Ray knew that he guessed correctly. "Actually, you don't have to be like this. I chose you because of your physique and the hatred in your eyes."
"Oh! That's right! "As if he suddenly thought of something, he immediately said," I have the Purgatory Body technique. "
"Of course, if you miss this opportunity, then your vengeance, your hatred, will disappear along with the limitation of your life."
Looking at Xie Tianchen, Lin Ray's eyes were slightly disappointed. "That's all I have to say. One minute. I'll give you one minute to consider. After that, no matter what your answer is, I will make you satisfied."
After saying that, Lin Ray turned around and looked at Jie Yang who was at the side. He did not speak. Just like that, the scene was extremely silent.
On the auction stage, around Lin Ray, a formation was faintly discernible. It wrapped around Lin Ray, Xie Tianchen, and Jie Yang.
Other than the three of them, no one else could hear the conversation between Lin Ray and Xie Tianchen. Even Yanhong who was at the side could not hear it.
Time slowly passed as Xie Tianchen was entangled and hesitant. Lin Ray had also thought about Xie Tianchen's answer.
Minute by minute, second by second, he wrote. It wasn't long, but it wasn't short either. Just like that, Linley turned around and looked at him. His eyes were startled, and he said in a dignified manner, "What's your answer?"
Plop …
As soon as Lin Ray opened his mouth, Xie Tianchen knelt on the ground and kowtowed with a sincere face. He said, "Master, disciple Xie Tianchen acknowledges you as my master today. I will never betray you. If I make a mistake, may I be struck by lightning from the ninth heaven and be burned by the flames of purgatory. I will lose all my senses and die a horrible death!"
"Hehe …"
Hearing Xie Tianchen's words, Lin Ray's face revealed a smile. Obviously, this answer was what he wanted to hear.
"Congratulations young master, you have a disciple!" At the side, seeing this result, Jie Yang quickly said.
"Good … Good, good, good!" A Purgatory Body was like a treasure to Lin Ray. He believed that under his careful nurturing, the Purgatory Body would definitely be able to shine and shock the nine heavens and ten earths.
After saying four good words, he stepped forward and reached out to help Xie Tianchen up. "From now on, you are my disciple, Lin Ray. There are still a few senior brothers and sisters before you. As for their cultivation, you will know when we return to the sect."
