Chapter 1903

"Young Master Yun Xiao..."

Li Feiyan tasted bitterness in her mouth, a strained smile barely squeezing onto her exquisite jade countenance.

She had felt all along that Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao was far too overbearing.

But now, thinking that it was his sister who had been kidnapped and auctioned off.

Li Feiyan even felt that Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao not directly launching a massacre already counted as quite a good temper.

Otherwise, she estimated she would be dead!

That servant, hunching his head, withdrew.

In Li Feiyan's heart, she already hated the Red Dust Mercenary Group so much her teeth itched.

On the seat of honor, Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao's expression was calm.

But the more this kind of calm, the more it made Li Feiyan's heart tremble with unease.

"Young Master Yun Xiao, the matter is like this."

Li Feiyan also hurriedly told Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao the specific details of the matter.

Just wanting to clear her name, this matter had nothing to do with her.

It wasn't her who wanted to capture Yun Xi, but her subordinates being too foolish.

"Don't say anything, just wipe out that bunch of mercenaries, no problem?" Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao said.

"Of course." Li Feiyan nodded.

Li Feiyan's identity, before Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao, served no use whatsoever.

Unless...

It was that person behind the Red Dust Chamber of Commerce, who perhaps could still have some use.

But that person right now was not in the Dark Star Sea.

However, one of his followers would arrive.

This was also the reason why Li Feiyan came here.

If that person's follower stepped forward, perhaps the matter would still have some room for maneuver.

And now, naturally she had to satisfy Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao's wishes.

The Red Dust Mercenary Group was a dog raised by the Red Dust Auction House.

Helping the Red Dust Auction House scour everywhere, searching for all kinds of rare treasures.

And now, this dog provoked an existence that couldn't be provoked, so naturally it had to die first.

Not long after, Li Feiyan received news, and smiled faintly at Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao, saying.

"Young Master Yun Xiao, the people of the Red Dust Mercenary Group have all perished."

However, Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao still remained expressionless.

"Then what about you?"

Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao spoke.

"Me?"

Li Feiyan's heart gave a violent thump.

"I previously just helped your younger brother Li Wushuang remove the Petrified Body, yet now you auction off my sister."

"Although it wasn't your fault, you are ultimately the person in charge of the Red Dust Auction House." Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao said leisurely.

"What, Wushuang's Petrified Body was removed?" Li Feiyan was shocked.

As the person in charge of the Red Dust Auction House, she rarely returned to the Li Imperial Clan.

And Li Wushuang resolving the Petrified Body hadn't been long ago, so Li Feiyan naturally still didn't know.

But the more it was like this, Li Feiyan's heart instead sank even deeper.

Put this way, she actually owed Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao a favor instead.

After all, she also valued this younger brother Li Wushuang very much.

But the Red Dust Auction House instead kidnapped his sister for auction.

No matter how you looked at it, Li Feiyan was in the wrong.

"Then Young Master Yun Xiao's meaning is..."

Li Feiyan took a deep breath, her beautiful curves rising and falling.

If she had to pay a certain price to make amends, she was still willing.

She also didn't want to make an enemy of a figure like Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao.

"Open your Sea of Consciousness, let me plant a mark."

Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao's fingers lightly tapped the armrest, as if speaking of a trivial trifle.

"What, Young Master Yun Xiao, this..."

Li Feiyan was stunned.

Although her status couldn't compare to Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao's.

But she was still an Imperial Clan proud daughter.

Having a mark planted, that meant losing the dignity of being human.

Life and death in Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao's single thought.

"Young Master Yun Xiao, I admit, this matter was indeed done wrong by my Red Dust Auction House."

"I also guarantee, afterwards I will accompany Young Master to the Yan Ancient Clan, to bring Young Master's sister back."

"But Young Master's demand, isn't it a bit too much."

One must say, as the manager of the Red Dust Auction House, Li Feiyan still had backbone.

Even now, she remained calm and composed.

Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao, however, smiled.

"Yan Clan? A doomed ancient clan—do you think I need you?"

"Choose to bear the mark, or… perish in beauty!"

Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao's gaze was icy and indifferent.

Li Feiyan was also a renowned beauty, but in his eyes, she was nothing more than a rouge-covered skull.

His reason for placing the mark on Li Feiyan was certainly not due to any personal interest in her.

Rather, he believed that by controlling her as a pawn, she might prove useful in dealing with Li Wushuang later.

That was all.

Moreover, this time, Li Feiyan was in the wrong.

Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao certainly enjoyed the act of not letting the righteous off easily.

Li Feiyan bit her lip.

Before, she had never seen Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao in person.

But she had heard of his temperament—rather overbearing.

Now, seeing him, it truly lived up to the reputation.

But…

Aside from the background of the Li Imperial Clan, she actually had another card to play.

Just as Li Feiyan was about to speak,

suddenly, a faint voice came from outside the Red Dust Auction House.

"Miss Li, what is going on? Has someone come to cause trouble at the Red Dust Auction House?"

As the words fell, a man approached slowly, hands clasped behind his back.

He looked quite young, bearing the aura of a dragon and tiger, his eyes like golden lamps, piercing and intense.

Though his aura was concealed, Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao still sensed it.

He, too, was a Divine Lord of Creation.

But he was in no way comparable to Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao.

Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao's age, at most, was barely over twenty.

This man, however, was certainly over a thousand years old.

Among cultivators, a thousand years is still considered young.

And to reach the rank of Divine Lord of Creation at a thousand years—this man was indeed a peerless heaven's pride.

Upon seeing this man arrive, Li Feiyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed there might be a sliver of a turn in the situation; she would not have to bear Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao's mark after all.

This man immediately noticed Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao.

Li Feiyan then said: "This is Yun Shao, the young master of the Yun Imperial Clan."

"Oh, so you are Yun Shao of the Yun Imperial Clan?"

The man's eyes flashed with strange light.

Unlike others who, upon hearing Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao's name, wore expressions of awe,

this man's expression held surprise and curiosity, but not that reverence.

Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao merely glanced at the man, then withdrew his gaze indifferently.

He cared not who this man was, which faction he belonged to, nor had any interest in finding out.

He continued to stare at Li Feiyan.

"Your decision—will you accept my mark, or… die?"

Li Feiyan's face turned pale.

Seeing Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao ignore him, the man could not help but faintly furrow his brow.

And upon hearing Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao's words, the man's expression flashed with a hint of coldness.

"Young Master Yun Shao, you've recently gained fame in the Boundary Sea, but to enslave Miss Li is rather overbearing."

"And you know, Miss Li is my lord's…"

Boom!

Just as the man had not finished speaking,

Within Within Within Within Within Jun Xiaoyao casually swung a slap.

Like a deity's palm!

Pfft!

The man was sent flying like a cannonball, blasted through myriad zhang of the Red Dust Auction House, shattering countless stars beyond the heavens.

"What a cat and dog, buzzing…"
