439: Beautiful women don't lie.

At this moment, none were more annoyed than Snow Heartless and Summer First Snow.

In their storage rings, they originally had quite a few divine origin stones, plus some other Secret Treasures; it wouldn't have been impossible for them to bid for the Breakthrough-to-Venerable Pill.

What infuriated them was that they, dignified Cultivators at the Peak of the Heavenly Net Realm, had actually been robbed of their storage rings by a brat in the Kongming Realm, and were even groped heavily by the other party.

"2.6 million."

Su Yuyan raised the placard in her hand once again.

"Junior Sister Su, I'm afraid I can't help you this time!" Tan Shaodu smiled indifferently, then raised the placard in his hand, "2.7 million."

"This Young Master is determined to have this Breakthrough-to-Venerable Pill." Shangguan Yuntian sneered, raised his placard, and shouted: "3 million."

As Shangguan Yuntian's voice fell, the atmosphere at the venue instantly quieted down.

Everyone turned their gazes toward Baili Canglong, Tan Shaodu, and Su Yuyan, wanting to see how they would respond.

To be honest, the value of an Advanced Breakthrough-to-Venerable Pill was at most around 3 million; once it exceeded this price, it wouldn't be worth buying.

"3.01 million." Baili Canglong frowned and raised his placard.

"Shangguan Yuntian, if you can afford to bid, then bid. If you can't, then don't. You only add 10,000; aren't you afraid of embarrassing your Yunhai Sect?" Shangguan Yuntian mocked him directly.

"Shangguan Yuntian, This Young Master will just add 10,000, what can you do about it? Bite me? Damn!" Baili Canglong smiled disdainfully.

"3.1 million." Tan Shaodu raised his placard again.

"3.2 million." Shangguan Yuntian gritted his teeth and raised his placard again.

"3.25 million."

Baili Canglong pondered for a moment, but ultimately raised his placard.

At this moment, beads of sweat were gradually appearing on his forehead. The price of 3.25 million was almost his limit; if anyone else increased the bid, he would have to give up.

Su Yuyan's willow eyebrows furrowed slightly. She lifted the placard in her hand slightly, but ultimately put it back down.

"Do you want it?" Yang Lingchen smiled slightly.

"No." Su Yuyan shook her head.

"Don't pretend. The way you look at the Breakthrough-to-Venerable Pill is still shining! If you want it, just bid!" Yang Lingchen said with a smile.

"That's over 3 million divine origin stones! Do you think I can just bid whenever I want?" Su Yuyan retorted irritably.

"If you want to bid, I can lend you 1 million divine origin stones. This is all I have." Yang Lingchen said.

"You can actually come up with 1 million divine origin stones?" A hint of surprise appeared in Su Yuyan's eyes.

"Yeah... yeah...!" Yang Lingchen nodded and said: "If you need to use them, I can lend them to you temporarily."

"Give them here!" Su Yuyan stretched her jade hand out in front of Yang Lingchen.

"Alright!"

Yang Lingchen nodded, then handed over a storage ring containing 1 million divine origin stones.

"You trust me this much." A charming, shallow smile curled at the corners of Su Yuyan's mouth.

"My mother said that pretty women generally don't lie." Yang Lingchen said with a half-smile.

"Stinky brat, your mouth is so sweet, you must have deceived quite a few girls, right?" Su Yuyan said with a smile.

"Cough... cough...!" Yang Lingchen coughed lightly and laughed: "I'm still a virgin!"

"You don't even believe that yourself."

Su Yuyan said coquettishly, then continued: "But I still want to thank you. I will definitely repay this 1 million divine origin stones with interest."

"No need to be polite, hurry up and bid! Otherwise, it'll be snatched away by those bastards." Yang Lingchen reminded her.

At this moment, the price of the Breakthrough-to-Venerable Pill had already been driven up to 3.35 million by Tan Shaodu and Shangguan Yuntian.

Baili Canglong had already given up on the auction.

"3.4 million."

Just then, Su Yuyan finally raised her placard.

As Su Yuyan's voice fell, Tan Shaodu and Shangguan Yuntian fell into complete silence.

A price of 3.4 million far exceeded the normal value of the Breakthrough-to-Venerable Pill; it was clearly not worth it to keep bidding.

"3.45 million." Tan Shaodu gritted his teeth and raised his placard again.

He had made up his mind; if anyone raised the price again, he would have to give up.

Shangguan Yuntian was silent for a moment, but ultimately shook his head and stopped bidding.

"3.5 million." Su Yuyan raised her bidding placard again.

As Su Yuyan's voice fell, Tan Shaodu's face became incredibly ugly, but in the end, he chose not to continue bidding.

A moment later, Zhou Minghan tapped the auction platform gently and shouted: "3.5 million divine origin stones, is there anyone else adding to the bid?"

Silence. At this moment, the venue was extremely quiet; no one else raised the bid.

"Bang!"

Zhou Minghan struck the gavel, announcing that Su Yuyan had successfully won the auction for the Breakthrough-to-Venerable Pill.

Afterward, Su Yuyan walked onto the auction platform. After paying the 3.5 million divine origin stones, she finally obtained the Breakthrough-to-Venerable Pill.

"Yang Lingchen, where are you staying?" Su Yuyan asked.

"Chunhao Restaurant. Why?" Yang Lingchen said.

"Let's go, to where you're staying." Su Yuyan's tone was very serious. After speaking, she pulled Yang Lingchen and walked outside.

The moment Yang Lingchen and Su Yuyan walked out of the auction house, Shangguan Yuntian and Baili Canglong followed closely behind.

"Stinky woman! Since you are so unappreciative of the situation, don't blame This Young Master for being impolite."

A haze flashed in Tan Shaodu's eyes, and he immediately followed them out as well.

After leaving the Great Zhou Chamber of Commerce, Su Yuyan pulled Yang Lingchen and sped away. In a few moments, the two arrived at Chunhao Restaurant.

After entering the luxury suite, Su Yuyan hurriedly asked: "Yang Lingchen, the thing you're wearing on your face, it must be the disguise mask that Li Hanyan gave you, right?"

"How did you know?" Yang Lingchen asked in surprise.

"The fact that Li Hanyan possesses a top-tier disguise mask has long been no secret in Wentian Palace, but I didn't expect she would give it to you. It seems your relationship is truly not simple." Su Yuyan said.

"She and I actually just have an employer-employee relationship." Yang Lingchen said.

"Are you her servant?" Su Yuyan asked curiously.

"Of course not. I was originally her family's Beast Tamer. She brought me to Wentian Palace just to take care of her Xuan Yi Beast. Later, by a stroke of luck, I became an Outer Sect Disciple of Wentian Palace." Yang Lingchen said.

"Between Li Hanyan and me, who is more beautiful?" Su Yuyan looked straight at Yang Lingchen.

"You are both beautiful." Yang Lingchen said.

"What if I insist you choose one?" Su Yuyan said coquettishly.

"If I must choose one, it has to be you, Senior Sister Su." Yang Lingchen chuckled.

"At least you have good taste, brat."

Su Yuyan rolled her eyes at Yang Lingchen, "Hurry up and change your appearance, then I will enter the secret treasure space, and you can take me away."

"Senior Sister Su, you trust me this much." Yang Lingchen said in surprise.

He hadn't expected Su Yuyan to trust him so much.

After all, if one enters a secret treasure space, it is equivalent to handing one's life into the hands of another; once that person destroys the secret treasure space, the people inside will have no place to be buried.

"When I was young, my father also told me that handsome men can't have hearts that are too bad." Su Yuyan smiled with amusement.

"Pfft...!"

Yang Lingchen burst into laughter. He hadn't expected Su Yuyan to have such a humorous side.

"I think Tan Shaodu, Shangguan Yuntian, and Baili Canglong also seem quite handsome." Yang Lingchen said with a smile.

"If they were to be compared to you, then they would be ugly monsters." Su Yuyan smiled charmingly.

"Rest assured, Senior Sister Su, just for those words, I will protect you for a lifetime." A hint of an Aura of supreme disdain for all appeared in Yang Lingchen's eyes.

"Stinky brat, doing this again." Su Yuyan said irritably: "Alright, hurry up and disguise yourself, we need to leave here as soon as possible."

"Alright."

Yang Lingchen nodded, then activated the disguise mask, transforming himself into the appearance of a waiter.

... To be continued!
