Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai grinned.

“I have plenty more up my sleeve. Here, Master, are five Condensing Pills that can gently and efficiently stimulate the blood power within your body. Take them.”

Jiang Xiaobai tossed a round-bellied porcelain bottle over to Gu Ning, who took it without ceremony and put it into his bag.

“Not bad at all. Do you have any other special items to show your Master?” Gu Ning asked with a smirk.

Seeing that expression, a chill ran down Jiang Xiaobai’s spine.

It was the look of a villainous character bearing down on him. Instinctively, he shielded his chest,

“I have no more, Master… Not a drop… Uh, I mean not a bit.”

Gu Ning rolled his eyes: “Keep your heart in your chest. I’m not about to covet anything you have. There’s no need for that.”

Jiang Xiaobai only then relaxed, but quickly swept up all the round-bellied porcelain bottles on the ground, glancing at Gu Ning as if watching out for a thief.

Gu Ning both tickled and vexed by Jiang Xiaobai’s actions, decided to ignore him.

After one night, Gu Leng came by the following day around noon, treating Jiang Xiaobai with respect and politeness, stating he had come specifically to take Jiang Xiaobai out for a stroll.

Qing Luan City is large with many sights to see and many fun places to visit.

On the way, Gu Leng and Su Lan were exceedingly flattering and ingratiating to Jiang Xiaobai, who found their behavior extremely amusing.

“I wonder what Gu Leng would think if he knew my real identity. I bet he’d be hopping mad and send people after me,” Jiang Xiaobai thought to himself.

Shaking his head, he focused on his plan.

The most important part was to reinforce his image.

He planned to present himself as someone who considered money of little importance, buying anything he fancied without a second thought, bargaining, or hesitation.

In a single day, Jiang Xiaobai spent at least a million high-grade spirit stones on food, drink, and entertainment.

His outrageous spending left Gu Leng astounded!

What a bloody billionaire!

“Is he just throwing money into the wind? If my family knew about my reckless spending, who knows what they would say.”

But looking at Jiang Xiaobai, he was clearly someone who didn’t attach importance to money.

Gu Leng became even more certain of his decision and showed clear signs of trying to please Jiang Xiaobai.

When they were having dinner together, Gu Leng carefully brought up his low status in his family.

Young disciples from other families had influential backers and top-level masters, but he had nothing.

Even his role as an auction planner was something he had to invest all his resources into getting.

He spoke with great emotion, as if wronged by the world.

However, his crappy acting skills were transparent to Jiang Xiaobai, a seasoned thespian.

He couldn’t help but deride silently: “His acting is garbage.”

However, intending to keep the charade going, Jiang Xiaobai played his role of a naive, wealthy young man to a tee.

He was even moved by Gu Leng’s ‘tragic’ story, promising to help him with any problems he encountered. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

And so, Gu Leng achieved his goal.

Delighted, he decided to give Jiang Xiaobai plenty of benefits during the auction and gradually seek his support after deepening their relationship.

When they returned to their room that evening, Gu Ning was by the window, gazing outside while remarking unhurriedly.

“Such a scheming person you are, it’s pitiful for anyone who ends up being your enemy.”

“Your methods are too crafty.”

In response, Jiang Xiaobai just laughed on the big bed: “Master, you don’t feel it because you’re too powerful. For us low-ranking folks, we have to struggle like this to survive.”

Although Jiang Xiaobai spent millions of high-grade spirit stones today, buying a bunch of useless things, he wasn’t the least bit distressed.

He had already won Gu Leng’s trust, so the money had been well spent.

Compared to what he planned to swindle from Gu Leng in the future, what was a bit of money?

For the next two days, Jiang Xiaobai hung out with Gu Leng, with Su Lan and Qiu Zixuan accompanying them at times.

To make his act more convincing, Jiang Xiaobai even spent money liberally.

Upon a whim, he’d toss out genuine benefits to those around him, claiming it was no big deal, confirming Gu Leng’s impression of Jiang Xiaobai’s terrifying background.

Finally, the day of the auction arrived. With the buffer of three days and continuous sweet talk to Gu Leng,

Gu Leng actually managed to get a number of treasures from his family, all for the auction with the purpose of getting Jiang Xiaobai to buy more items.

The auction, previously scheduled for the evening, was even moved up to noon.

At the entrance of the Gu Family Auction House, Jiang Xiaobai and Gu Ning walked in swaggering. They instantly attracted everyone’s attention inside.

Now, who in Qing Luan City didn’t know about the seemingly high-ranking Void Prince with a Transcending Tribulation level master behind him?

At the very least, he must have some connection to a superpower.

Rumors about Jiang Xiaobai throughout Qing Luan City became increasingly mysterious, with some even claiming he was the biological son of a superpower sect leader and such.

Many people wanted to catch a glimpse of this legendary figure. So when Jiang Xiaobai entered the venue, everyone strained to get a better look at him.

Jiang Xiaobai just gave a shy smile to the crowd and quickly ushered Gu Ning to their seats at the front, arranged by Gu Leng.

It seemed like he was not accustomed to such attention.

To his surprise, just after he settled down, another group entered.

It was the Medicine King Sect he had encountered in the secret forest!

Wenwen recognized Jiang Xiaobai instantly, snorted in disapproval, and took his seat.

Conveniently, Wenwen’s seat was right next to Jiang Xiaobai.

“Hmph, never thought I’d see you here. You must be pretty important to sit here,” Wenwen sneered at Jiang Xiaobai.
