Douluo: Wuhun Bone Dragon, I am the Undead Scourge

Chapter 65 The Auction House Manager's Show of Goodwill
She puffed out her little chest proudly and reported loudly.

But at this moment, the movement involved the wound on her body that had not yet healed. She couldn't help but hiss softly, and her little face turned pale in an instant.

But even though it hurt a lot, Shana still stubbornly raised the corners of her mouth and forced out a bright smile, as if telling Gu Feng that this pain was nothing at all.

Gu Feng looked at Shana's forcing herself to hold on, and his heart softened. He said softly, "If it hurts, you don't have to endure it."

After hearing this, Shana's eyes flashed with panic. She subconsciously clenched the corner of her clothes, and her eyes became redder. "No, it doesn't hurt, really!"

"Master, please don't look down on Shana, okay? Shana is very well behaved and can do anything. She won't cause any trouble for you, Master."

Gu Feng frowned and sighed in his heart.

What a wicked aristocracy.

"Shana, how old are you this year? Do you remember?"

Shana tilted her head, looking dazed, her big watery eyes full of confusion. She then shook her head gently. It was obvious that she had been captured and tortured for too long and had lost the concept of time, let alone remembering her own age.

Gu Feng had no choice but to look at the maid standing beside him with her hands hanging down, and asked, "How old is Shana this year? You should know."

The maid shuddered slightly and said quickly, "Ten years old, distinguished guest."

"What? Ten years old? Are you sure?"

Gu Feng's eyes widened instantly, full of disbelief.

He looked at Shana carefully again. The girl in front of him was extremely petite, even much shorter than himself. She didn't look like a ten-year-old child at all.

You know, soul masters with soul power develop earlier than ordinary people, not to mention that Shana is a girl, who naturally develops faster than boys.

In Douluo Continent, twelve-year-olds are considered adults, but Shana is almost an adult and still looks like this. It is really abnormal.

Facing Gu Feng's questioning eyes that seemed to see through everything, the maid felt like a thorn in her back and could not bear the pressure.

After hesitating for a long time, she stammered in a low voice, "Because this beast girl hasn't been sold for a long time, and she's too stubborn, for the safety of future customers, the manager fed her a large amount of growth-inhibiting drugs...

After hearing this, Gu Feng finally understood why Shana was so petite.

Fortunately, he still has the magic herb. As long as he takes Shana back and treats her carefully with the magic herb, everything will turn around.

With some cultivation, the innate seventh-level soul power may not be able to create a genius with the foundation for becoming a god.

Gu Feng turned his head slightly, his eyes softly falling on Dugu Yan, and he softly instructed: "Sister Yanyan, take Shana to find a place to change into clean clothes first. By the way, take good care of her wounds and don't leave any hidden dangers."

Dugu Yan raised her eyebrows slightly, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, and she couldn't help but ask: "What about you? Aren't you coming with us?"

Gu Feng shook his head slightly: "I'll be there later, I still have some things to take care of here."

"Okay, then we'll go first, and you shouldn't delay too long."

Dugu Yan nodded to show her understanding.

She turned around and stretched out her hand, wanting to hold Shana's hand, but Shana suddenly dodged her.

Shana was like a frightened deer, carefully grasping the corner of Gu Feng's clothes and hiding timidly behind him.

Seeing this, Gu Feng squatted down slightly, looked at Shana at eye level, and said in a gentle voice: "Shana, be obedient, okay? Sister Yanyan is a good person and will take good care of you."

Shana's eyes were filled with tears, and her voice was filled with tears. She asked anxiously, "Master, do you not want Shana anymore?"

"That's not true, don't overthink it."

Gu Feng quickly spoke to comfort her and gently touched Shana's head.

"Then why did you want Shana to follow her?" Shana still looked aggrieved and muttered softly.

"Because the young master really has something important to deal with right now, he really can't spare the time, so you should stay with Sister Yanyan first. I will come to you as soon as I am done with my work, okay?"

Gu Feng patiently explained again in a soft voice.

But no matter what Gu Feng said, Shana seemed to be frozen, without any sign of wavering, holding on tightly to the corner of Gu Feng's clothes and refusing to let go.

Now, Gu Feng was really at a loss. He gritted his teeth and had to resort to a "ruthless move".

His face suddenly turned serious, revealing an unquestionable determination. He said in a deep voice, "Shana, if you don't obey me, the young master will be really angry. Maybe... he will really abandon you."

As soon as these words came out, Shana was like being struck by thunder and her whole body froze.

After a long while, she pleaded in a tearful voice, "No, no, Master, please don't leave Shana, okay? Shana knows she's wrong. Shana will go with this sister obediently. Master, you must come to find me..."

Seeing this, Gu Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

From a psychological point of view, once a person has been in a low point and lonely for a long time, and has truly felt the kindness and warmth of others, he or she will no longer be able to bear the pain and despair of being abandoned. This is the case with Shana.

Wait until Shana and Dugu Yan disappeared in the VIP room.

Gu Feng quickly suppressed the gentle expression on his face, turned around and strode towards the table where the mysterious parchment scroll was placed.

At this moment, the whole room was so quiet that only the sound of his steady footsteps could be heard.

Gu Feng called softly in his heart: "Old Yi, with your powerful soul power, can you find out what is in this scroll?"

Electrolux's calm voice tinged with helplessness. "I've carefully infiltrated my soul power into it, and I can barely make out it's a map. But as to what it actually represents, I'm completely clueless. It's as if a mysterious force is interfering, preventing me from gaining further insight."

Gu Feng nodded slightly, a glint of understanding flashing in his eyes. He silently pondered, "That's enough. Haste won't get you hot tofu. This scroll has survived the passage of time, and it's a secret that can't be easily revealed. I'll study it slowly when I get back."

"There are many highly respected scholars in the academy, so I'm sure someone would know about it."

Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded from far away.

Immediately afterwards, an old man with gray hair and a neat tuxedo walked into the VIP room in a hurry.

He quickly scanned every corner of the room, and when his eyes fixed on Gu Feng, he was slightly stunned.

The old man first exchanged glances with the maid standing beside him with her hands hanging down, and then received a slight nod of confirmation from the maid.

His face immediately filled with smiles, and he said respectfully, "Young Master, according to our Tiandou Royal Auction House's detailed customer records, you are very lucky to be our 1th customer."

"According to the regulations, we can offer you a free meal. You will not have to pay any fees for any purchases you make at the auction today."

Although the old man spoke with confidence, any discerning person could see that the so-called "free bill for the 1th customer" statement was full of loopholes and could be seen as fake at a glance.

For the auction house, instead of accepting the hundreds of thousands of gold soul coins that Gu Feng spent this time, it would be better to take this opportunity to show goodwill to the grandson of Bone Douluo. Obviously, the potential value brought by the latter is much greater.

As the manager of the Royal Auction House, he knew some secret information.

It is said that just two days ago, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect launched a massive expedition, almost sending out all its members, heading towards the Star Dou Great Forest in a mighty procession.

Even the pillar of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, the sword Douluo Chen Xin, who has the best attack power in the world, led the team there personally.

And this purpose...is obviously self-evident.

Apart from hunting the ninth soul ring, is there any other soul beast worthy of Sword Douluo Chen Xin's effort?
I'm afraid that in a few days, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect will have another Titled Douluo!

Now there is such a rare opportunity to show goodwill to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. As the manager of the Royal Auction House who is well versed in the ways of the world, how could he miss it easily?
