Douluo Huo Yuhao: My Clone is Too Self-Disciplined

He is second to none in the world, and he is an excellent leader and a strong person. However, he has a flawed personality and is not suitable to be anyone's partner.

Moreover, in her heart, no one is worthy of her young master, after all, her master is a goddess, someone who is destined to inherit the divine position.

She was certain that her young master didn't like the second-best in the world, but what she didn't know was that her young master actually had someone else in his heart.

Of course, she could never have known that her young master actually liked someone who only existed in his imagination.

Even the wind doesn't know if the person she likes still exists, let alone her.

Feng Susu wanted to say something more, but when she saw Meng Hongchen's ashen face, she coughed lightly, reminding her maid and best friend.

Feng Susu then calmed down and stopped talking.

The atmosphere in the conference room became somewhat awkward. Everyone fell silent, watching the numbers on the screen jump slowly and steadily.

Looking at these two stunning beauties, he silently increased the price.

The bidding slowed down after reaching 300 million, because 300 million is a considerable sum for anyone.

Feng's entire net worth is only 400 million.

She originally intended to leave this money to the Second Best in the World so that the Second Best in the World could use it for business development.

However, this money originally belonged to her, and she was free to paint however she wanted. The Second Best in the World had no right to interfere, and besides, the Second Best in the World was unaware of it.

She needed it now, so she had no choice but to spend it.

On the other hand, Meng Hongchen's wealth was obviously greater than Feng's, but they still wanted to bid on that 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo.

She's still insisting on bidding for this stone, which is quite reckless.

Meng Hongchen knew that no matter how much money she spent, her grandfather would not blame her and would support her at all costs.

The entire Hongchen family can afford this amount of money; for them, it's a respectable sum.

Unfortunately, it happened now.

Even if she's incredibly willful, she can only hold out up to 350 million. If she exceeds that amount, her grandfather's plan will have to be abandoned.

It's highly likely that we won't be able to buy that 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo.

Thinking of this, Meng Hongchen couldn't help but clench her teeth.

She knew that Feng and the Second Best Under Heaven had a very close relationship, possibly that kind of relationship. Feng was competing with her for the Love-Sick Heartbreak Red, probably also for the Second Best Under Heaven.

She's already a step behind the wind, so if she can't capture this, wouldn't she be a step behind at every turn?
She was really unwilling to accept it.

However, when the number on the screen jumped to 360 million, Meng Hongchen's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Her face suddenly turned pale.

There was no other way; she couldn't be willful anymore.

All the soul tools they brought were not enough to support her continued bidding. If she had to pay on credit, Mingde Hall would be at a disadvantage.

This would definitely benefit the Star Luo Empire.

She couldn't let her personal feelings ruin her grandfather's important plans.

Could she tell? Feng's assets are very substantial; he could probably hand over four hundred million. In her eyes, Feng has always been the kind of person who doesn't compete or fight, but once he gets tough, he's the kind who won't let go.

She didn't want to continue fighting her to the death; it was pointless and would only benefit the Star Luo Empire.

"You win. I'm giving up the bid. The Acacia Heartbreak Red is yours."

Meng Hongchen spoke these words listlessly, her face full of dejection. Seeing this, Xiao Hongchen felt heartache and immediately took his sister's hand.

"Little sister, it's just a soul beast embryo. We can just not buy it. You've never wanted anything like this before. I'll definitely buy it for you today."

After Xiao Hongchen finished speaking, he was about to raise the bidding paddle in Meng Hongchen's hand again!

The maid in charge of their room also showed a look of surprise.

As the competition was about to end, she felt both shocked and somewhat regretful!
Those who shocked the Sun Moon Empire were all rich bastards, they were so rich that they could easily get three or four hundred million, and they didn't care about it at all.

It's also a pity that this competition ended so abruptly, since the dividends would have been higher if it had dragged on longer.

If it reaches 400 million, even if it's just a 1% cut, she can still get 4 million gold soul coins.

This is an unprecedented windfall, a windfall that has directly brought financial freedom to him.

With money, her life will change dramatically, and she will become a member of the upper class in the Star Luo Empire.

In her eyes, Feng He and Meng Hongchen were simply her destined benefactors.

The competition between the two had already ended, and she felt regretful. However, after hearing Xiao Hongchen's words, a hint of longing appeared in her eyes, as if she thought there were still experts out there.
Not only her, but everyone in the VIP room turned their gazes toward Xiao Hongchen, especially the teacher leading the team from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

He wanted to remind Xiao Hongchen not to lose sight of the bigger picture for the sake of small gains, and not to act impulsively or disobey the orders of the Master of Mingde Hall.

However, when he thought about how Jing Hongchen loved his two grandchildren the most and put them first in everything, and how this 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo was originally bought for Xiao Hongchen, he felt that he shouldn't meddle. It was a family matter, and he shouldn't interfere too much, so he just watched silently.

The less you do, the less mistakes you make, and the less you do, the better.

Hearing Xiao Hongchen's words, Meng Hongchen was deeply moved, but she did not raise her hand to silently tell Xiao Hongchen that she had given up.

Meng Hongchen adjusted her mindset slightly, then smiled and said to Xiao Hongchen, "Brother, it's just a stone. What's wrong with giving it to her? It's just a fairy herb. You can't say that. My feelings for being the second best in the world don't need to be judged by a fairy herb."

"Besides, how can you be so sure she can activate that immortal herb? If she can't, I can buy it again and completely outclass her."

Although Meng Hongchen's voice was very low, everyone could hear it in the room.

Ma Rulong, Ji Juechen, and the others all showed strange expressions. They secretly sighed, "The second-best in the world didn't come. He really had foresight. Otherwise, this place would definitely have become a battlefield."

He's second to none in the world, what merit or ability does he possess to make two women so infatuated with him?

However, when they thought about how excellent he was, the second best in the world, they all felt relieved.

Being second in the world is certainly worthy of the title, but it also seems somewhat unworthy.

After all, the Second Under Heaven has no interest in relationships between men and women and has never expressed his liking for anyone. Feng and Meng Hongchen are currently only giving unilaterally without receiving anything in return.

That's close to four hundred million!

I'm so envious, jealous, and resentful.

Feng naturally heard what Meng Hongchen said, but remained silent.

She refused to believe she couldn't activate the Heartbreak Red Acacia. Since inheriting the legacy, Feng had become exceptionally confident, not only in her own abilities but also in every other aspect.

After all, the succession of divine positions already speaks volumes.

Of course, she had considered what Meng Hongchen said. She was not the kind of person who was mean-spirited, nor did she want to compete with Meng Hongchen to see who would win.

She simply wanted it; she never intended to fight Meng Hongchen to the death.

If she ultimately fails to activate the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red, why shouldn't Meng Hongchen spend money to buy it? What's wrong with her simply giving her the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red?
It's useless anyway.

The bidding price on the screen stopped at 360 million gold soul coins, but even so, it was enough to amaze countless people.

This magical herb, an undefined magical herb whose activation is uncertain, has actually sold for such an astronomical price.

They could only sigh, "There are so many rich people."

Later, they will also be bidding on that 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo, which will cost several hundred million gold soul coins.

They really do feel like frogs in a well.

There are so many wealthy people on this mainland, hidden talents and untold riches. I wonder how many more have yet to show their faces.

After a long while, seeing that no one was bidding on the immortal herb anymore, he actually breathed a sigh of relief.

But actually, she's in a complete panic right now.

Her own brother has already told her that the herb is fake, and that it's all a scam from beginning to end.

Having sold it for such an astronomical price, Starlight Auction House has really gone all out this time.

This is a ticking time bomb.

When their lies are exposed, Starlight Auction House will be condemned by everyone.

But it's already like this, so there's no way to change it. What's done is done, and we can only grit our teeth and move forward.

Thinking of this, Xu Jiujiu immediately revealed her signature smile, making the final decision.

"Congratulations, esteemed guest, on winning this treasure with a bid of 360 million gold soul coins. Due to the exceptionally high price, Starlight Auction House will provide you with the most attentive handover service. Please wait patiently for one hour. After one hour, we will proceed with the final auction. We appreciate your understanding."

After speaking for a long time, he left, and then the screen went black.

The others, seeing this, showed no dissatisfaction; they all accepted it as the proper thing to do.

After all, this isn't an order worth tens or millions, but something worth 360 million.

They would understand even if it were two hours, let alone one hour.

If they spend hundreds of millions of gold soul coins here and don't receive attentive service, they will also feel unhappy.

Judging from the actions of Starlight Auction House, it seems they want customers who buy the Acacia Heartbreak Red to activate it on the spot and consume it directly, eliminating the possibility of it being snatched away later.

An hour is a bit rushed.

However, they were also very curious whether the great traitor who spent 360 million gold soul coins could actually activate this immortal herb.

She spent 360 million gold soul coins. Did she buy a peerless immortal herb or a stone? They were all eagerly anticipating the answer.

Unfortunately, all of this was irrelevant to them. Starlight Auction House had very strict confidentiality measures in place, so it was impossible for them to know.

At the same time, Xu Jiujiu, dressed in a golden auction outfit, carried the Acacia Heartbreak Red on a golden plate and walked to the door of the VIP room of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, gently knocking on the door.

Soon, the maid in charge of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy opened the door and respectfully welcomed Xu Jiujiu inside.

Because they were in the wrong, Xu Jiujiu did not immediately demand a settlement from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. In any case, Mingde Hall would not renege on their debts, so settling the accounts later would not be a problem.

Moreover, they even took the initiative to send over the Acacia Heartbreak Red.

"Distinguished guests, may I ask who purchased this treasure?"

Xu Jiujiu knew the truth perfectly well, but he still asked deliberately.

Meng Hongchen remained silent, gazing at the red acacia flower in front of him for a long time, his eyes filled with longing and regret.

Feng nodded, and then, at her signal, Feng Susu walked up to Xu Jiujiu, took out a stack of gold cards, placed them on the plate, and then casually took out the Acacia Heartbreak Red.

"Three hundred and sixty million gold soul coins, not a penny less. Count them yourself."

Having said that, she held the Acacia Heartbreak Red petal and returned to the wind's side.

She stared at the heavy gold card in front of her for a long time. Although she still had a smile on her face, her eyes revealed a deep disappointment.

I was originally planning to rip off Mingdetang for some more soul tools, but it turns out they have money and paid for it all at once.

Their Star Luo Empire doesn't lack money, what it lacks are soul tools.

I thought I'd hit the jackpot, but all I got in return were these cold, hard gold coins.

My mood soured immediately, and I just wanted to leave as soon as possible. However, I would leave only after the buyer had tried the goods.

In order to keep the lie from being exposed, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and continue acting.

Feng quickly took the Acacia Heartbreak Red from Feng Susu's hand. She held it in her palm and felt its icy coolness.

This herb was quite ordinary, really no different from a regular stone.

"This is the legendary Acacia Heartbreak Red? It's really quite ordinary. Auctioneer Jiujiu, could you please tell me again how to activate it? I've forgotten a bit."

A cool, clear voice rang out. After a long while, he smiled and said considerately, "It's an honor. That's why I'm here."

"Dear guest, you only need to silently recite the name of your beloved, then spit out a drop of your heart's blood onto this Love-Sickness Red peony. As long as your love for him is without any ulterior motives, the Love-Sickness Red peony will bloom successfully."

After speaking for a long time, Feng immediately nodded, and then, under everyone's gaze, he tightly grasped the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red coin and closed his eyes.

A blurry figure immediately appeared in her mind.

A stranger she knew best, a stranger whose soul had merged with hers, yet she knew nothing about him.

The person she had always longed for, the one she was certain she loved very, very much...

What she needs to do now is prove that her feelings are indeed love, and not something else...
