"Ling Ying, what are you talking about?"
Upon hearing Ling Ying's words, Wang Ying's face blushed a bit.
She never expected Ling Ying to be so bold as to directly invite her to join Yang's harem.
"Wang Ying, you didn't mishear. I'm inviting you to join us. I'll be the main, you'll be the side, and we'll work together to drive away all those flies and butterflies around Yang."
Ling Ying said directly.
For a moment, Wang Ying's little face turned even redder.
"Ling Ying, your idea is great!"
Yang couldn't help but admire Ling Ying.
To find a wife, it should be someone like Ling Ying, who knows that she can't safely share Yang alone, so she invites Wang Ying to join in to fend off all those flies and butterflies together.
"I'm talking to my sister. Why are you interrupting?"
Ling Ying glared at Yang with her beautiful eyes.
Yang chuckled and obediently stood aside without making a sound.
If Ling Ying really managed to persuade Wang Ying to join Yang's harem, that would be wonderful.
"Wang Ying, have you also been with Yang?"
Ling Ying leaned in again.
Wang Ying nodded: "Yes, twice."
"So, how do you find Yang's abilities? Does he satisfy you?"
Ling Ying asked with a smile.
Yang, who was beside them, couldn't help but smile: Why does Ling Ying have to ask everything?
Wang Ying seemed extremely embarrassed. She shook her head: "I'm not sure if I'm satisfied. I was drunk and had taken medicine, so I didn't pay much attention. However, Yang's abilities are quite impressive!"
"Exactly. Yang's abilities are strong. He can satisfy many wives at once, so I'm generously inviting you to join me!"
Hearing Ling Ying's words, Yang couldn't help but feel proud of Ling Ying: Having such a wife is a blessing I've accumulated over eight lifetimes!
"I'm sorry, but I don't have feelings for Yang. How can I join you?"
Wang Ying shook her head.
"How can you not have feelings? You're already pregnant with his child, how can you not have feelings? Plus, you just drove away Zhang Li, ostensibly in my defense, but in essence, it was because you care about Yang, right?"
For a moment, Wang Ying's face turned a bit red.
She lowered her head and kept asking herself: Could I really have feelings for Yang?
If I didn't have feelings, I shouldn't have reacted so strongly just now.
But Yang is a lecher, not worthy of me.
For a moment, Wang Ying was conflicted.
"Wang Ying, take your time to think about it!"
Ling Ying didn't pressure Wang Ying but gave her time to think it through clearly.
"Let's go out first. The auction is about to start..."
Wang Ying deliberately changed the subject.
Speaking of the auction, Yang wanted to use the red porcelain to lure out the Ancient Martial Artist behind it, so he called Wang Ying and Ling Ying to go out.
But as soon as they stepped out of the VIP room, they saw a pair of men and women walking towards them.
The woman was none other than Zhang Li.
And next to Zhang Li was a handsome young man wearing rimless glasses, looking quite refined.
"Yang, the auction has started!"
Zhang Li approached and said directly.
Yang nodded, but noticed that the young man beside Zhang Li was eyeing Wang Ying and Ling Ying with burning eyes.
This young man was no good, eyeing Wang Ying and Ling Ying hotly as soon as he arrived.
Yang's eyes flashed with a hint of killing intent as he asked, "Zhang Li, who is this man to you?"
Zhang Li replied proudly: "He's my fiancé, Xu Min, a well-known second-generation rich in East Sea."
Yang made an acknowledging sound, then suddenly delivered a heavy slap.
A crisp slap sounded, and Xu Min had no chance to react to Yang's slap. By the time he realized, his face was already red and swollen.
"Why the hell did you hit me?"
Xu Min clutched his swollen face, glaring stubbornly at Yang.
"Because I find you annoying."
Xu Min was enraged and was about to take action against Yang when Wang Ying spoke up: "Xu Min, you'd better not make a move. He's my friend. Let's talk it over calmly!"
Xu Min glanced at Wang Ying, hesitated for a moment, then glared at Yang: "You wait for me, you bastard..."
Yang shrugged, called Wang Ying and Ling Ying, and walked into the auction hall.
Meanwhile, Zhang Li cast a fierce glance at Yang and Wang Ying's backs. She shoved Xu Min, cursing: "Useless thing, why didn't you fight back just now? They're my enemies, and you just backed down, embarrassing me!"
Xu Min hurried to please Zhang Li: "Lili, don't worry. I'll take care of that guy if I get the chance. You're my fiancée, and your enemies are my enemies!"
Zhang Li snorted displeasedly and then walked into the auction.
Inside the auction hall, it was filled with noble upper-class figures.
As soon as Yang, Wang Ying, and Ling Ying sat down, some upper-class figures kept approaching for small talk, of course, all targeting Wang Ying.
After all, Wang Ying was one of the four great beauty CEOs of the East Sea, and her father was a well-known initial founder of an internet company in Huaxia.
Even though Wang Ying had just taken the position of chairwoman, it didn't stop her from becoming the focal point of everyone's flattery.
"I am very pleased that our distinguished guests are able to attend this auction. Since everyone here is familiar, we won't waste any more words; let's move directly to the auction. The first item is a dagger from the Qing Dynasty, passed down from the royal family..."
A host clapped his hands, and two employees brought up a transparent glass case.
Inside the glass case was a reddish dagger.
Although the dagger was exquisitely crafted and shimmered with a magnificent aura, it was obvious that the guests in the hall reacted with indifference.
"The starting price for this dagger is three hundred thousand, with each increase being fifty thousand! Let's begin the auction!"
The moment the host gave the order, the entire hall fell into a dead silence.
In the crowd, Yang Tian sensed a presence hovering over the dagger.
He quickly activated his X-ray Vision Technique and peered into the dagger, a hint of surprise flickering in his eyes.
Inside this dagger, a presence was boiling.
"This dagger bears the aura of an Ancient Martial Artist!"
Yang Tian murmured softly.
Both Ling Ying and Wang Ying were startled, and they too fixated on the dagger.
If this dagger indeed carried the aura of an Ancient Martial Artist, could it be the Wang Lingzhan they were searching for?
"It may not necessarily be Wang Lingzhan..." As if aware of what the two women were thinking, Yang Tian shook his head: "At this auction, many antiques come from the four lakes and five seas; it might belong to another Ancient Martial Artist... wait..."
Suddenly, Yang Tian was taken aback, frozen in place.
He then activated his X-ray Vision Technique to explore the dagger again.
Inside the dagger, Yang Tian clearly saw a symbol.
This symbol was a design, at the center of which were three characters: Wang Lingzhan!
Indeed, the symbol inside the dagger was inscribed with the name Wang Lingzhan.
"Yang Tian, what's going on?"
Wang Ying and Ling Ying looked at Yang Tian in confusion.
"We must acquire this dagger at the auction!"
Yang Tian suddenly declared.
Without asking why, both Wang Ying and Ling Ying completely trusted Yang Tian, so Wang Ying raised her paddle.
"Three hundred thousand! The lady bids three hundred thousand!"
The host announced excitedly.
Instantly, the whole hall turned their gaze towards Yang Tian, Wang Ying, and Ling Ying. They were perplexed, not knowing why these three wanted to bid for the dagger.
On the other side, Zhang Li's eyes showed a trace of displeasure.
Glaring at Yang Tian and Wang Ying, Zhang Li took out her phone and directly called Xu Min in the auction hall: "Hubby, you must raise the bid, don't let Wang Ying and Yang Tian get what they want! Anything they bid for, we must snatch it up and destroy them with rage right in front of their faces!"
"I got it, honey, don't worry, I love you so much, I'll do anything you say!"
Inside the auction hall, Xu Min raised his paddle.
"The gentleman over there bids three hundred and fifty thousand!"
The host announced excitedly.
Everyone turned their gaze towards Xu Min.
"Xu Min must be doing this on purpose!"
A trace of irritation flickered in Wang Ying's eyes.
"We'll raise the bid; we must win this at any cost!"
Yang Tian said in a deep voice.
The dagger contains Wang Lingzhan's symbol; it's the only clue they had.
Hearing Yang Tian's words, Wang Ying nodded and raised her paddle again.
"Four hundred thousand! The lady bids four hundred and fifty thousand!"
"Four hundred and fifty thousand, the gentleman raises the bid again!"
"Five hundred thousand, the lady increases the bid..."
Soon, the auction was filled with the sound of bids rising, unknowingly escalating to one million and five hundred thousand.
Ling Ying's eyes glinted with a hint of killing intent: "Xu Min must be following Zhang Li's orders to retaliate against us, I'm afraid if this continues, the price will only be driven higher!"
"Zhang Li really wants to ruin us!"
Meanwhile, beside her, Yang Tian kept silent, using his Divine Sense to probe the dagger.
For some reason, he discovered that the aura inside the dagger was peculiar, boiling incessantly as if it was about to explode at any moment.
Moreover, beneath the symbol, something seemed to be pressed.
As for what it was, Yang Tian could not clearly discern at the moment.
He thought to himself that once he acquired the dagger at the auction, he must study it well.
"We have to win this dagger at the auction!"
"But Xu Min is like a mad dog on our trail, only driving the price up!"
"Xu Min is likely under Zhang Li's direction. I have an idea to make him quiet down..."
Yang Tian said calmly.
Wang Ying and Ling Ying quickly asked.
Yang Tian leaned in and whispered his plan to them. After hearing Yang Tian's plan, both Wang Ying and Ling Ying were astonished: "That's a great idea!"
"Ling Ying, you go ahead!"
Ling Ying stood up and walked towards Xu Min's direction...
