Douluo: Martial Soul Golden Crow, I am the Emperor of Heaven

Chapter 11: Whale Rubber

"Did you see those female receptionists just now? Xiaoqing, do you think they are pretty?"

Qian Renxue sat in the top box. She handed a piece of meat jerky to Pei Qing. Seeing his thoughtful expression, she chuckled and asked.

"Very beautiful, but I feel like they seem to have no light in their eyes—like puppets."

Pei Qing took the meat jerky and took a bite. It tasted sweet and delicious, a rare delicacy. However, compared to the delicacies he had eaten in the Prince's Mansion these days, it was nothing.

"Yes, these reception girls are just as you said—they're puppets, top-notch goods who were sold or captured."

"They have no soul power, but they possess looks that are not inferior to soul masters. They are reception girls and commodities. The Heaven Dou royal family not only condones this behavior but also secretly supports it."

"Xiaoqing, I hate this kind of thing, but I lack the power. I wonder if you're willing to help?"

Qian Renxue stared at Pei Qing with burning eyes, as if trying to see something from his face.

"I will do my best to help Brother Xue."

"If I have the ability in the future, I will help change the Heaven Dou Empire."

Pei Qing truly detests this kind of darkness, especially when he looked down through the private room and saw an obese noble hugging a woman and touching her.

Many people around him were watching with great interest, whispering and pointing.

The obese nobleman was not ashamed but proud, kneading her even harder.

Pei Qing looked down coldly, his golden eyes exuding a domineering aura.

"Then practice hard. Only by becoming stronger can you change everything you want to."

Qian Renxue nodded with satisfaction. With a martial soul with sacred attributes, she knew very well that Pei Qing was naturally unable to tolerate such hidden darkness.

This was also one of the reasons she brought Pei Qing here today. After witnessing these corruptions, Pei Qing would be motivated to practice even harder.

"I will!" Pei Qing withdrew his gaze and resumed devouring the dried meat in front of him.

"The auction has begun. I didn't expect the first auction item to be something like this. It seems the Heaven Dou Auction House has been declining more and more over the years."

Qian Renxue looked at the dark yellow gelatinous block brought out by the auctioneer, and her eyes showed disdain.

"Our first item today is five whale rubber obtained from the body of a ten-thousand-year-old sea soul beast!"

"Its medicinal power is only one gram, but it's enough to make an adult soul master burn with desire."

"The starting price is 200 gold soul coins, and each bid must not be less than 20 gold soul coins!"

"Begin now!"

It's whale rubber—top-grade ten-thousand-year-old whale rubber.

Pei Qing was shocked for the first time, and his eyes also showed a flicker of desire.

This kind of ten-thousand-year-old whale rubber would be considered a treasure-level item ten thousand years later.

Without tens or even hundreds of thousands of gold coins, one couldn't even dream of acquiring it in the future.

But now, five pieces were only two hundred gold coins, and probably wouldn't exceed five hundred at most.

"Brother Xue, take these five pieces of whale rubber."

"I read in a book at the orphanage when I was a child that whale rubber can slightly increase the physical strength of a soul master when burned with flames."

Qian Renxue was stunned, and her eyes fell on Pei Qing with a slightly complicated expression.

Whale Rubber can increase the physical strength of a soul master? Isn't this thing usually used as an aphrodisiac?

"Book, what book?"

Although Qian Renxue wanted Pei Qing to start a family in Spirit Hall in the future, she never intended for him to do that kind of thing now.

Now, Pei Qing suddenly asked about a book, which made her think more.

And the book—what book? She, the prince, didn't know, but Pei Qing did.

"I also forgot the name of the book. I just remember it was an ancient book."

"Please believe me, Brother Xue. I won't do anything wrong."

Pei Qing made a promise, which eased Qian Renxue's suspicion somewhat.

"In that case, it's just a few hundred gold soul coins. Just buy it."

Qian Renxue nodded slightly and then called out the bid of 500 gold soul coins.

As soon as the bid was announced, the entire auction venue fell silent.

In the end, no one bid further, and the item was auctioned off by Qian Renxue.

"Thank you, Brother Xue."

Pei Qing looked at Qian Renxue gratefully and said.

"No need to thank me. It's just 500 gold soul coins. But is there an ancient book?"

Qian Renxue glanced at Pei Qing, feeling puzzled. It would be good enough if that Orphanage could feed the children, so how could there be an ancient book?

It's strange to think about it!

"Of course there is. I remember it was given to me by the dean."

Pei Qing secretly apologized to the old dean in his heart.

After all, no matter what he said, he couldn't tell Qian Renxue that he saw it in a book called Douluo Continent, could he?

'So, Dean, please take the blame for me this time!'

"In that case, I'll find someone to try it for you when I return. Don't try it yourself."

In Qian Renxue's eyes, Pei Qing, who has a natural domain, is worth far more than an ordinary Titled Douluo.

Even if whale rubber can improve the physical strength of soul masters, she can't let Pei Qing experiment first.

It's easy enough to find a Soul King or Soul Emperor to test it.

"Huh? He's here too?"

"Let's go. Xiaoqing, I'll take you to see someone."

Qian Renxue suddenly paused and looked down thoughtfully.

Following her gaze, Pei Qing saw three people.

A middle-aged man, an old man with white hair, and a little girl of three or four years old.

The middle-aged man appeared to be in his thirties or forties, with a jade-like face, elegant and gentle, and long black hair casually draped over his shoulders. His aura was similar to disguised Xue Qinghe's, giving off the impression of someone easy to get close to.

The old man behind him wore a spotless white robe, with white hair, a simple appearance, and delicate, smooth skin.

He stood there like the most eye-catching presence in the room.

As for the little girl, Pei Qing simply ignored her.

Strong—absolutely strong!

Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo Che Xin!

Unexplainably, these names appeared in Pei Qing's mind.

He stood up, followed Qian Renxue, and approached the two.

"Teacher and His Majesty Sword Douluo came to this auction together and even brought Rongrong. Could it be that there are items that the Teacher values here?"

Qian Renxue led Pei Qing to a place near Ning Fengzhi before speaking. Her tone was gentle, and she seemed very respectful.

"Qinghe, I didn't expect you to come here too. I just heard that several girls who failed to awaken their martial souls were taken."

"I'm here to give them freedom!"
