Ning Rongrong was completely taken aback by the fact that Yun Feng and her father were speaking in unison.
However, Ning Rongrong wasn't foolish. After a brief moment of silence, she quickly understood the reasoning behind it!
Ning Fengzhi glanced around at the women seated beside Yun Feng.
Yun Feng smiled.
Although Ning Rongrong had many things she wanted to say, she eventually closed her eyes.
Turning to Yun Feng, she said:
"Brother, no matter what, I will always stay by your side, even if it means facing an abyss!"
Seeing Ning Rongrong's unwavering determination to stand by Yun Feng, Xiao Wu and the others naturally couldn't fall behind.
They all spoke up one after another:
"Even if it's an abyss ahead, we'll always be there!"
Listening to the chorus of voices around him, Yun Feng's face broke into a knowing smile.
The world is cruel, but thankfully, you're all here!
At this moment, his sense of belonging was firmly decided.
The previously uncertain allegiance was now settled.
Spirit Hall!
It wasn't that Yun Feng didn't want to develop his own power.
It's just that with Spirit Hall already in place, and its goals almost always aligned with his, Yun Feng didn't need to think too much about it.
As long as he could nurture the talented women by his side and maintain his relationship with Gu Yuena, he could persuade them with emotion when the time came.
Yun Feng felt that this plan was entirely feasible.
Climb to the top of Spirit Hall, then stage a coup.
At that point, wouldn't the entire Douluo Continent be under his control?
Of course, these were still just thoughts for now, far from being realized.
As he imagined the coup, a wicked idea suddenly popped into Yun Feng's mind.
Could he also become a "Chamber Douluo" once?
"Hiss!"
Exciting!
Hastily shaking off these thoughts, Yun Feng turned his gaze to the girl on the auction stage.
He slowly said:
"Saving someone who has lost their soul is meaningless, but this one still has a soul, and it's caused by a Soul mutation. How can I not save her when I've encountered her?"
"Rongrong, Yan Zi, let's spend a bit of your money and bid for her!"
Yun Feng couldn't ask Ning Fengzhi for help.
After all, he had just made bold claims. Even if Ning Fengzhi offered to pay now, Yun Feng wouldn't agree.
But his women were different. Yun Feng's eyes turned to Dugu Yan and Ning Rongrong.
Dugu Yan and Ning Rongrong naturally agreed. Money meant little to them, as they were never short of it.
"Brother, just use it, no need to say anything!"
Dugu Yan was even more straightforward.
"What's mine is yours. If you want it, use it. Don't hesitate!"
Yun Feng rubbed his nose. This feeling was truly wonderful!
The bidding price had now risen to 160,000 gold soul coins, and it seemed to be steadily increasing.
The auctioneer exclaimed excitedly:
"170,000! A red VIP has bid 170,000 gold soul coins. Any higher bids?"
Xiao Wu was stunned by the price.
An ordinary person could live comfortably on one gold soul coin a month!
Yet here, these gold soul coins seemed like meaningless numbers!
How many lifetimes could this amount support for ordinary people?
Before Xiao Wu could finish her astonishment, the price on the auction stage refreshed again!
"180,000! Excellent, a white—ah, a white VIP has bid 180,000!"
The host had exclaimed more than once. The white color represented the lowest level of bidders, yet since the auction began, there had always been a white bidder participating. What was even stranger was that his account never showed any signs of overdraft.
This indicated that the other party had the capability to bid.
"I want to see who dares to compete with me."
An old man sitting in the front red area suddenly stood up and scanned the white area behind him.
Although he wore a mask, as soon as this person stood up, Yun Feng had already guessed his identity.
Ning Fengzhi was right; the eyes are the windows to the soul, and everyone's eyes are different, with even greater differences in their gaze.
The person who appeared in the red VIP area, glaring angrily at the back, should be Prince Xue Xing of the Heaven Dou Empire, who had expelled Flender and his group from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy in the original story.
The white VIP seemed to have recognized Prince Xue Xing's identity as well and remained silent.
Seeing that this person was sensible, Prince Xue Xing suppressed his anger and raised his bid again.
"Ninety thousand!"
As soon as this was announced, exclamations of surprise rose and fell around the room.
Some of the excited crowd who had been participating in the auction also began to calm down.
Rarity is one thing, but spending so much money on what is essentially a vase is not worth it!
Moreover, there was the risk of offending the powerful, and the atmosphere gradually settled down.
Prince Xue Xing, looking at the calmed crowd, revealed a sneer.
After scanning the room, his eyes were filled with disdain.
Seeing that no one dared to continue bidding against him, Prince Xue Xing felt immensely satisfied.
After a moment of joy, his gaze turned fervently towards the young girl on the auction stage.
If it weren't for the concern over the royal family's reputation, this old lecher would have wanted to broadcast it live!
Although the host maintained a smile on his face, his heart was bleeding. If it weren't for Prince Xue Xing's interference, he might have made even more profit.
But he dared not utter a word.
Other auction houses, seeing the situation turn sour and noticing the bidder was from the red VIP seats, naturally dared not offend.
Just as the host thought the auction item was about to conclude, a firm young voice slowly rang out.
"One hundred thousand!"
The voice wasn't loud, but in the suddenly silent auction hall, it was deafening!
All eyes immediately turned to the source of the voice.
Xiao Wu and the others wore masks, but Yun Feng did not!
And everyone present who had the qualifications to enter this auction hall had some wealth and power.
Naturally, someone recognized Yun Feng's appearance.
After all, a major event had occurred just a few days ago.
A Soul King defeating a Soul Douluo.
And the protagonist was the man before them!
Although they recognized Yun Feng's appearance, most people's faces showed a trace of pity.
Offending Prince Xue Xing in the Heaven Dou Empire, even if you are a genius, it's...
Prince Xue Xing was the same. Seeing the duck he thought was in his hand suddenly increase in price at the last moment, he was immediately furious!
"I want to see who dares to snatch what I have my eyes on!"
Turning his head, he looked at Yun Feng.
He was also stunned; he naturally knew of Yun Feng.
The royal family had even held a special meeting about him before.
They discussed how to deal with Yun Feng.
Recruit him!
If recruitment fails, kill him!
After all, a genius of this level, if not on their side, would bring endless trouble!
Prince Xue Xing had also discussed this with Xue Beng.
Although they were also part of the royal family, they were not of one mind and had their own safety to consider.
They couldn't recruit him, nor could t
hey kill him.
Because doing so would expose them.
It must be remembered that in their understanding, Xue Qinghe was not an easy person to get along with.
If Xue Beng dared to approach such a genius figure, he might meet an untimely end on any given day.
