Ding Huan knew these facts, so any further excuse was meaningless.

Qi Yushan racked his brain but could not understand how Ding Huan knew all this.

"You don’t need to know how I know," Ding Huan said, "that for a mere Demon Core, you even killed your companion. It shows just how low your character is."

After saying this, Ding Huan threw a punch.

Qi Yushan had lost all his will to fight; to use his spear on him at this point would have tainted his own Gun Dao Divine Power.

"Bang!" Ding Huan’s punch shattered Qi Yushan’s head, and a mist of blood exploded.

He could never have imagined that he would die at the hands of someone he deemed no better than an insect, a mere mortal.

"Mr. Ding, did you kill Qi Yushan?" Sang Yuhe looked at the dead Qi Yushan, her voice still trembling.

Ding Huan beckoned with his hand, and Qi Yushan’s Storage Bag fell into his grasp:

"This guy tried to kill me several times; it would’ve been strange if I hadn’t killed him."

After taking Qi Yushan’s Storage Bag, Ding Huan still felt some contempt for the man.

Always out there killing and looting, yet he hadn’t even managed to secure a Storage Bracelet, which was pathetic.

"Mr. Ding, thank you for saving me."

Sang Yuhe was somewhat uneasy; she was shocked by how strong Ding Huan had become and worried that he might kill her to silence her, just as Qi Yushan had planned.

Ding Huan waved his hand and said:

"Senior Sang, if you hadn’t brought me here, I would still be in the Four-direction Star Land. It was you who saved me first."

Sang Yuhe quickly said, "Mr. Ding, your strength far exceeds mine, I dare not accept the honor of being called your senior."

In this place where strength ruled supreme, that was indeed the case, and Ding Huan didn’t mind, so he simply changed his address:

"Since that’s the case, then I’ll call you Sister Yuhe. We are acquaintances now, so you can call me by my name. Where are you planning to go now?"

"I don’t know," Sang Yuhe shook her head.

Over the years, she had been fleeing from place to place and had no place to stay.

Returning to the commerce was even more out of the question.

Over the years, she did not know how Qi Yushan might have been slandering her at the commerce.

He would definitely claim that she had taken the good things purchased from the Four-direction Star Land and fled.

Ding Huan pondered for a moment and said:

"I’m planning to establish a sect; Sister Yuhe, if you don’t mind, you could come with me."

"You want to form a sect?" Sang Yuhe was staggered by Ding Huan’s words.

Ding Huan was fairly strong, but he was only at the True Pill Realm, right? A True Pill cultivator wanting to start a sect?

"Hehe, just looking for a place to settle down and happened to find one. I have to give it a try and see, maybe it will work?"

Ding Huan gave an awkward smile.

He was only equivalent to the Foundation Establishment Realm, and founding a sect, in the eyes of others, indeed seemed a bit ludicrous.

Sang Yuhe lingered on Ding Huan’s words, ’maybe it will work’. She thought about how Ding Huan came from the Four-direction Star Land to the Triple Heaven Star Land as a mortal.

How many years had it been? While she had been living a fugitive life, Ding Huan was already capable of killing Qi Yushan.

If at their first meeting Ding Huan had told her he could kill Qi Yushan in about three years, she would have thought he had lost his mind.

Qi Yushan’s corpse proved that it only took Ding Huan three years to go from a mortal to killing Qi Yushan.

Since Ding Huan, as a mortal, was capable of killing Qi Yushan, why couldn’t he establish a sect?

"Ding Huan, I have nowhere else to go either, so I might as well go with you," Sang Yuhe decided.

She truly had nowhere else to go.

"Good, then let’s leave now," Ding Huan said, taking out a mask to wear, and handed another one to Sang Yuhe.

"Are we going right now to the place you mentioned?" Sang Yuhe took the mask and asked.

Ding Huan shook his head:

"No, we’re first going to Yanyue City. There’s an auction there I plan to attend."

Sang Yuhe seemed to understand:

"Did you see Qi Yushan in Yanyue City and then follow him here?"

"Yeah, this guy has chased me before. Seeing him, I naturally couldn’t let him go, and I hadn’t expected him to come and try to ambush you."

Ding Huan didn’t hide the truth.

Sang Yuhe sighed; people really needed to learn how to fight back.

She had been on the run, giving Qi Yushan the impression that she was easy to bully.

That’s why this time after Qi Yushan found her cave mansion, he wasn’t in a hurry to attack her directly, but rather went to Yanyue City to buy an Array Plate.

Qi Yushan was terrible at arrays, the Array Plate he bought must indeed be the Killing Trap Array that had trapped her earlier.

Ding Huan was about to incinerate Qi Yushan’s corpse with a Fireball when he suddenly noticed Qi Yushan’s belt. He abruptly remembered that originally Ding Qi had contributed a Storage Belt to Qi Yushan.

Thinking of this, he grabbed Qi Yushan’s belt.

A sweep of his Divine Will confirmed it was indeed a storage spiritual artifact.

Ding Huan secretly felt fortunate; he almost lost a chance to salvage a Storage Magical Treasure. It seemed he couldn’t afford to be careless after the battles.

Having secured the Storage Belt, Ding Huan began to set up the Killing Trap Array.

Sang Yuhe was puzzled:

"Mr. Ding, Qi Yushan is dead, why are you still setting up a Killing Trap Array?"

Ding Huan chuckled:

"People without foresight will have imminent worries. I’m going to Yanyue City to attend an auction, and I’m worried that if there are any good items in this auction, my cultivation is too low and I might attract attention.

Setting up a Killing Trap Array is quite simple for me, and it doesn’t matter if it’s not used."

Sang Yuhe felt a surge of emotion once again, no wonder she could only be pursued while others could counterattack Qi Yushan in just three years; their ways of thinking were completely different.

She also realized that she couldn’t see through the level of the Killing Trap Array that Ding Huan had set up.

Sang Yuhe was still on the run and didn’t dare to show herself.

She didn’t know about the devastating battle between Purple Mist Valley and Nine Sounds Sect which led both to close off their mountains while she had been describing the auction in Yanyue City to Ding Huan all the way.

She had been to Yanyue City before and had attended its biggest auction, which is held once every five years.

The organizer was Dao Yan Commerce, a commerce guild primarily led by the Yanyue Sect.

"So, there are indeed some good items in this auction?" Ding Huan asked, his interest piqued.

He then thought of the booklet, and his Divine Will touched upon it, discovering that not only Foundation Establishment pills were being sold, but there was also Condensing Star Bamboo.

What attracted Ding Huan’s attention the most was a top-quality spiritual weapon spear at the auction.

He needed this item; despite having several spears, including a spiritual weapon spear, none of those felt quite right in his hands.

He indeed had a good material on him but unfortunately, he couldn’t craft a spear himself.

Having someone else craft it seemed risky.

Ding Huan suspected this material was quite special and if it got out because the material was too good, his strength might not be enough to protect it.

"There are definitely good items; I remember an auction in Yanyue City where they auctioned Spiritual Treasures and even a Low Grade Immortal Artifact," Sang Yuhe explained along the way, which increased Ding Huan’s expectations for the auction.

When the two arrived in Yanyue City, the auction was just two hours away.

Ding Huan quickly decided to buy a private box ticket, not bothering to look for a Rest Building to rest, and entered the auction with Sang Yuhe.

Such large auctions attracted many people, but not many bought private box tickets.

Primarily because compared to real auctions in Tao City, Yanyue City’s major auction seemed rather insignificant.

As someone from a commerce background, Sang Yuhe knew that private boxes were generally reserved for the very wealthy who treated Spirit Stones as though they were nothing.

Seeing Ding Huan spending over ten times the price to book a private box, she was somewhat speechless.

Though the auction indeed had some good items, those items certainly wouldn’t be accessible to the likes of Ding Huan.

As such, spending so many Spirit Stones on a private box was truly pointless.

She didn’t quite understand why Ding Huan had become so formidable so quickly, but she was sure Ding Huan hadn’t been possessed.

One’s way of doing things can be mimicked, but their gaze cannot.

Ding Huan probably encountered some opportunity that granted him a large number of Spirit Stones, giving him the illusion that Spirit Stones were easy to earn, which isn’t the case at all.

Once familiar with Ding Huan, she needed to explain to him how difficult it was to earn Spirit Stones in the Taoist Realm.

After entering the private box, Sang Yuhe was even more baffled by Ding Huan.

Ding Huan’s mastery of Array Dao was definitely not poor, so why not upgrade the prohibition in the private box that blocks Divine Will?

Right now, the prohibition was virtually non-existent, any Divine Will could easily enter.

She believed Ding Huan surely knew this prohibition could be upgraded, but since Ding Huan didn’t make the upgrade, she said nothing.

Ding Huan and Sang Yuhe talked for nearly two hours in the private box; he learned even more about the Taoist Realm as the auction started.

A middle-aged beautiful woman walked onto the auction stage.

"Her name is Pang Xiangxiang, an elder of Yanyue City and a steward of Dao Yan Commerce, wielding great power within the guild," Sang Yuhe informed Ding Huan.

"Her strength doesn’t seem very impressive? How come she became an elder?" Ding Huan asked, puzzled.

Sang Yuhe lowered her voice:

"Pang Xiangxiang is rumored to be the Furnace Tripod of the Sect Master of Yan Sect, Yi Wandao, who favors her.

After her assistance to Yi Wandao, not only did he preserve her foundation, but he also gave her authority within the Dao Yan Commerce."

"I see," Ding Huan nodded, understanding the situation.

This Pang Xiangxiang definitely practiced the Great Phoenix Red Cloud Technique; it is a Furnace Tripod Technique.

Normally, those who practice this technique are doomed after transferring their efforts to others.

It seemed Pang Xiangxiang had earned Wang Dao’s favor, not only saving her life but also maintaining her cultivation in the Foundation Establishment Realm and securing a position within the commerce guild.

Pang Xiangxiang was attractive, and her voice was very pleasing:

"Many friends here know me; I am Pang Xiangxiang, that’s all for introductions.

The once-in-five-years grand auction of Yanyue City is about to begin, led by Dao Yan Commerce. Every time, many Top Treasures appear, and this time is no exception.

What exactly those treasures are, I don’t know in advance, so let us reveal them one by one…"

As Pang Xiangxiang’s words fell, a jade box wearing a red scarf was teleported to the auction stage in front of her.

Pang Xiangxiang lifted the red cloth, and with a delighted voice exclaimed:

"The first auction item has indeed not disappointed me, this is a Three-colored Zilin Flower. This is a level-five Spirit Grass, a main ingredient for crafting Void Network Pills…"

Ding Huan was somewhat stunned upon hearing this; he had never intended to really help Elder He find the Three-colored Zilin Flower.

It was funny; his own items were nowhere to be found, yet he first saw the Three-colored Zilin Flower.

To think, in terms of rarity, the Three-colored Zilin Flower is definitely rarer than the spiritual weapon that contains Poison Fog.
