"Boss, have you gone mad?"

Qian w.a.n.guan's eyes widened as he transmitted a message with alarm. He wasn't feeling heartache for the 80 billion celestial stones, but because… this situation was too severe.

Among all the great clans, there were plenty of young masters and young ladies who had friendly relations.h.i.+ps with Huangfu Taotian, but why weren't any of them lending him celestial stones?

Just as Situ Ao said… Huangfu Taotian was worth 1000 billion celestial stones, but why was it that when he was in a moment of despair, no one wanted to take the opportunity to offer him a favor? To obtain a huge and significant relations.h.i.+p with him?

Did Lei Qiyan truly want to use 200 billion to buy the Pearl of Life for his sister? Did he truly profit 200 billion from a small business? This was obviously supported by Lei Tingwei in the dark as they wanted to strive for their Lei Clan's reputation. They wanted to exact revenge on Huangfu Taotian and redeem their Lei Clan's reputation.

Anyone who dared to lend Huangfu Taotian celestial stones would be to go against the Lei Clan and to smack the Lei Clan's face in public!

If Lei Tingwei wasn't here today, this matter might be overlooked. Now that Lei Tingwei was here, Jiang Yi's action was utterly disrespecting the Lei Clan and humiliating them. If one was to offend the no.1 clan of the G.o.ds Bestow Tribe, would one still be able to make a living in the future?

In fact, Jiang Yi understood all these things clearly, and he didn't say anything at first because he was concerned about those things.

When he saw Huangfu Taotian's expression when he stood up and walked outside, Jiang Yi recalled about his own bitter experience. Back when he betrayed the Divine Martial Kingdom and was facing against the six influential factions, he was also helpless and alone. Jiang Bieli was just like Huangfu Qi now, simply watching from the sidelines. This had made Jiang Yi sympathize with Huangfu Taotian.

Jiang Yi didn't know what did Huangfu Taotian need the Pearl of Life for, but he liked Huangfu Taotian's character. It was just like himself. They were similarly unyielding, and similar humans would always be able to relate to one another.

Today, he might have offended the Lei Clan by helping Huangfu Taotian, and he didn't know if the Lei Clan would plot to kill him in the future. Jiang Yi simply knew that if he didn't offer his help today, he might regret for the rest of his life.

If a youth wasn't frivolous, then was there any difference to being an old man with one foot in the grave?

Jiang Yunhai had mentioned that one should follow one's heart with every endeavor. One could make mistakes in life, but one had the courage to make that mistake! Hence… he spoke.

The entire crowd was in dead silence, and even a pin drop could be heard.

Moments later, Situ Yinian cast a look at the pavilion where Situ Ao was in. After she received a transmitted message, she responded firmly, "Of course, you can! According to the rules of the auction—as long as the customer has sufficient celestial stones, they can bid! May I ask the customer in no.555 pavilion, are you sure you want to lend 80 billion celestial stones to Young Master Huangfu?"

"I am sure!"

Jiang Yi patted on the crystal ball and responded firmly. He paused for a moment and spoke again, "Earlier on, my three paintings were sold for 120 billion. Deducting the commission fees, I still have 108 billion. I have spent 20 billion the Purple Soul Bells earlier on so I have 88 billion left. Am I correct, Young Lady Yinian? You can directly deduct 80 billion from my share and transfer it to Young Master Huangfu. Also… Young Master Huangfu, the favor I owed you before shall be settled and remember to return the celestial stones to me in the future."

"Wow!"

Jiang Yi had thrown a bomb which caused the entire hall to be in a commotion. No.555 pavilion had made his move for two items today, and everyone had paid attention to it. Especially when he spent 20 billion to buy the Purple Soul Bells as a gift to the young lady in Nangong Clan, which left a deep impression on everyone.

They didn't expect the customer to be the artist of the Heaven Paintings. Furthermore, he even dared to lend 80 billion to Huangfu Taotian? Let alone lending 80 billion, the ability to resist the pressure from Lei Clan was something no one would be able to accomplish. At least, the young masters from the other great clans didn't dare to lend the celestial stones, didn't they?

"Young Master, well done!"

Feng Luan's eyes flickered as she raised a thumb. She was the first to react and understood the hidden intentions of Jiang Yi's actions.

Jiang Yi was taking the opportunity to reveal his ident.i.ty. After this, not even the Lu Clan would dare to act recklessly. After all, an Art Emperor was someone that all clans would fight to recruit. With this honorable status, would any regular person dare to act recklessly in the city? Were the rules in G.o.ds Bestow City nonexistent?

His final statement had also given the Lei Clan a way out of this embarra.s.sment as he stated that he didn't want to go against or to humiliate the Lei Clan. He simply owed a favor to Huangfu Taotian.

As for what kind of favor did he owe to Huangfu Taotian, it didn't matter. As long as the Lei Clan kept their face, they wouldn't dare to fall out with someone like Jiang Yi as he was an Art Emperor.

The three paintings—'Sorrow', 'Yearning', and 'Pa.s.sion'—might not be at the standard of an Art Emperor, but it had been auctioned off for a price of 100 billion. Jiang Yi had already proven himself as even the paintings produced by the Art Emperors in the East Imperial Continent would only be worth this much.

"Alright!"

Huangfu Taotian yelled out and bowed deeply to the no.555 pavilion with cupped hands and turned around abruptly and said, "I will bid 201 billion!"

The entire hall was in silence again. They looked at the Lei Clan's pavilion and see if Lei Qiyan was going to continue making the bid.

Lei Qiyan didn't disappoint everyone as the words from descendants of great clans carried enormous weight, and he naturally couldn't go back on his words. He laughed and said, "Since Brother Taotian has some benefactor helping you, how Qiyan continue to act inappropriately? This Pearl of Life belongs to Brother Taotian."

Situ Yinian smiled like a blooming flower which was dazzlingly beautiful. She bowed deeply to the Lei Clan's pavilion and said, "Big Brother Qiyan has kept his words and has a heart as big as the sea. Yinian is filled with admiration. Is there anyone else making a bid? Three, two, one—alright, this Pearl of Life now belongs to Big Brother Taotian. This auction has also successfully ended…"

Swis.h.!.+

Before Situ Yinian could finish speaking, Huangfu Taotian soared up high and shot towards the stage abruptly. He tossed an ancient divine essence ring to Situ Yinian and grabbed the jade box from the female attendant before opening it slowly. When he saw the pearl which was glowing with mild green light, his face actually streamed with tears.

Buzz!

The ancient divine essence ring in his other hand lit up while a huge transparent precious stone coffin appeared on the stage. This coffin was very mystical as it was entirely transparent as though it was made by crystals. It was glowing with faint runic patterns and was obviously a rare treasure.

The crystal coffin was sealed, and there was a female corpse lying inside. It was an elegant and attractive young lady. Her looks couldn't be considered absolutely beautiful, but she had the aura of a pretty daughter of a humble family. Why was she a female corpse? She had a pale expression that didn't have a hint of blood color. A single glance was enough to know that she had pa.s.sed away for a long time.

The whole hall was stunned while Situ Yinian could say a single word. When she saw the female corpse in the crystal coffin, she couldn't bear it and turned away.

"Huangfu Taotian spent 200 billion on the Pearl of Life for a female corpse to use? So that the corpse will not rot?" Jiang Yi and Feng Luan s.h.i.+vered and were dumbstruck.

Previously, Qian w.a.n.guan had heard some rumors saying Huangfu Taotian actually started a fight with his father because of a woman. Finally, he severely injured dozens of Huangfu clansmen and killed his way out of G.o.ds Bestow City. He then became a bandit in the G.o.ds Bestow Sea with by himself, intercepting the Heaven Fate s.h.i.+ps of the various large merchant a.s.sociations. The huge sum of celestial stones that he obtained was actually to buy the Pearl of Life so that this woman's corpse… wouldn't rot?

Lunatic!

Everyone's mind appeared with the same word. On the stage, Huangfu Taotian ignored everyone's eyes and had eyes of infatuation while he stared at the young lady in the crystal coffin and let out a gentle smile.

He used a single hand which was radiating with essence force to pat on the crystal coffin, causing the cover of the coffin to slide off to one side. He knelt on one knee on the floor and used one hand to hold onto the coffin while his other hand slowly delivered the Pearl of Life into the female corpse's mouth, finally putting it inside her mouth.

Huangfu Taotian's eyes were no longer flowing with tears as he had a resplendent smile instead. He suddenly reached into the coffin and gave a kiss on the female corpse's forehead. He then reached out a hand to gently rubbed the female corpse's face while speaking to her with an extremely resolute expression, "Ling'er, I have bought the Pearl of Life. Your body will never rot. I will spend my entire life to cultivate diligently, and when I smash the void and ascend, I will bring you to the immortal world to find some panacea. Wait for me… Ling'er. If I cannot revive you in this lifetime, I—Huangfu Taotian—will kill my way into the Netherworlds to look for you!"

The sonorous and forceful statement echoed in the entire hall. It was ear-splitting and constantly resonated!
