Chapter 121: A Massive Explosion of Luck!

~8 min read 1,547 words

"Two thousand top-grade Spirit Stones!"

The person who spoke was none other than Lu Tianyu.

Since it was the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles of his own sect, how could he not make a move?

Seeing this, Tian Shiguang jumped up at once: "You brat, what kind of trouble are you stirring up!"

"The Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles are not something you can lay your hands on; if you speak again, I will make you shut up forever!"

He had already been infuriated by the bearded man, the fatty, and the man in the green robe, and his belly was full of fire.

Now that Lu Tianyu had actually stood up to bid, all his anger was suddenly vented onto Lu Tianyu.

If it weren't for the fact that three other people were participating in the auction, Tian Shiguang would have given up bidding right now, letting Lu Tianyu win it and then snatching the item from his hands.

Facing the furious Tian Shiguang, Lu Tianyu's expression was very calm: "You are the one stirring up trouble, and you have no qualifications to participate in the auction either."

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, looking like he would stop at nothing to infuriate others: "Since you are participating in the auction, even if I can't afford it, what's wrong with driving the price up?"

"If I don't drain your Spirit Stones, how could I justify it to you?"

Lu Tianyu's voice was very flat.

But to the ears of the crowd, it sounded like a thunderclap.

What did he mean by even if he couldn't afford it, he would still drive the price up?

If he didn't drain your Spirit Stones, how could he justify it to you?

What kind of talk was this?

It was clearly intentional sabotage.

To sabotage so casually, and to deliberately target several bidders—was he not afraid that they would collectively target him?

Not only had he offended Tian Shiguang, did he want to offend everyone else too!

Was this what they called a dead pig not fearing boiling water?

Suddenly, all sorts of contemptuous and disdainful gazes shot toward Lu Tianyu like knives.

They thought to themselves, is this brat in such a hurry to die?

"Brat, you've gone too far!"

The middle-aged man in the green robe also spoke indignantly, "Sit honestly and don't mess around, and you might live a little longer."

"Otherwise, your life might be taken by the King of Hell at any moment."

He issued a naked threat directly to Lu Tianyu.

Lu Tianyu, however, chuckled: "What's the use of making empty threats? If you have the ability, just make a move and see who meets the King of Hell first!"

Afterward, he looked at Luo Yingying: "If no one else is bidding, the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles belong to me!"

His tone remained flat throughout.

"You brat, you're courting death!"

The middle-aged man in the green robe stood up abruptly, looked at Luo Yingying, and said coldly: "This brat is intentionally causing trouble! As the organizers, are you going to ignore this and let him run wild?"

Luo Yingying looked at Lu Tianyu with a smile: "This person is indeed causing trouble, but the auction hasn't ended yet, and we, as organizers, cannot break the rules."

"If you, Senior, are willing to take action and help, my Liuli Sect will naturally welcome it."

Her smile was sweet, but there was a hint of coldness in the corners of her eyes.

The implication was that we can only take action after the auction ends.

If you are willing, you can take action to get rid of this guy; we will not interfere.

It must be said that her move of borrowing a knife to kill was very clever.

If Lu Tianyu were killed, she would have given face to the man in the green robe and removed a nuisance for Tian Shiguang—killing two birds with one stone.

Hearing this, the man in the green robe was immediately overjoyed: "Good, then I will take action to kill this brat; all of you move aside..."

But before he could finish his sentence, his expression changed drastically, and he subconsciously looked at the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles in Luo Yingying's hand.

Caw!

Following a clear phoenix cry, a fire-red thin needle broke through the air and pierced toward his eyes.

The man in the green robe's reaction was also very fast; he dodged to the side at the first moment.

But the speed of the thin needle was too fast, and with a *puff*, it pierced through the ear of the man in the green robe.

Then it flashed and returned to the needle box, its speed reaching the extreme.

"Ah!"

Then came a shrill scream.

In the eyes of the terrified crowd, the green-robed man's ear was instantly melted away.

*Puff! *

The green-robed man waved his hand, sending out a sword Qi that severed the base of his own ear, also cutting away a large patch of skin from his temple.

Because he felt the overbearing, scorching flames still spreading toward his skull.

If he delayed any longer, the fire might burn his head away.

Even so, the green-robed man felt his half-cheek burning with pain, and his head was also scorching hot and in extreme agony.

"Ah—"

He let out another shrill scream, his body trembling violently, and he stared at the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles in terror, shouting: "This, what is going on here?"

"How could these Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles target me alone!"

Why did the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles suddenly attack him when he was about to make a move?

Did they not like the look of him?

The crowd also stared in horror, with everyone voicing different opinions:

"What's going on? How could these Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles start killing people on their own?"

"How strange, could it be that it saw that kid was handsome and found this person unpleasant, so it attacked directly?"

"This kid's luck is truly good; he held a beauty and even received the help of the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles."

The man in the green robe glared at Luo Yingying and roared, "It was you, wasn't it!"

"You must give me an explanation today!"

Though he said this, his heart was actually panicking.

His own cultivation realm was not high; he had come this time pretending to be an expert.

Luo Yingying, the organizer, did not have a high cultivation realm; she was only a Spirit Severing stage cultivator.

However, this was her home turf, and he could clearly detect four obscure, powerful auras around the auction house.

It was obvious they were all experts from the Liuli Sect; if he made a move, he would be exposed and could only flee.

But he absolutely could not show weakness at this moment, or he would be easily manipulated.

The only thing he did not understand was why the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles attacked him when he made a move against Lu Tianyu.

Luo Yingying was also stunned: "Senior, you have misunderstood. You are a guest here; how would I dare to attack you!"

"I am sorry, Senior, I truly do not know what happened!"

She hurriedly closed the needle box and put the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles into her Storage Ring, only then letting out a sigh of relief.

She was extremely puzzled as to why the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles had attacked on their own without being controlled.

Could it be that that damned kid's luck had just exploded!

Luo Yingying looked at Lu Tianyu once more.

"I suppose you wouldn't dare!"

The man in the green robe clutched his painful cheek and turned to Lu Tianyu: "Kid, even if your luck is good, you are still going to die!"

"You had one burst of luck, but can you have a second!"

Whoosh!

He leaped in front of Lu Tianyu, Sword Intent surging on his green precious sword, and a cold killing intent locked onto Lu Tianyu.

Lu Tianyu was about to speak, but unexpectedly, Guo Zhuying walked out first and blocked in front of him: "Stop!"

"I am the Saintess of the Tianshan Sect, Guo Zhuying; please step back!"

The man in the green robe sneered: "I don't care which sect you are from; don't make me kill you along with him!"

Having been humiliated like this on the spot, how could he let it go.

He had already killed a prodigy of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, so he did not care about killing the Saintess of the Tianshan Sect.

Guo Zhuying did not yield in the slightest: "Then come!"

She thought that by reporting the name of the Tianshan Sect, the man in the green robe would stop, or at least not attack Lu Tianyu, avoiding a conflict.

But she did not expect that the man in the green robe would give no one face.

Yet the arrow was on the string and had to be fired; today would be a fight to the death.

"Zhuying, come back; he cannot hurt me."

Seeing Guo Zhuying step forward, Lu Tianyu felt inexplicably moved.

This woman was risking everything for him.

As a grown man, how could he let a woman take the lead.
