I'm a villain in the superhero world.

The "Pearl of the Sea Auction," held irregularly aboard the Oriental Pearl cruise ship—

In recent decades, it has undoubtedly been a gathering place for celebrities in the secular world.

Every voyage here undoubtedly marks the beginning of a grand feast.

Wealthy people and gentlemen from all over the world spend lavishly here, accompanied by elegant and beautiful ladies and their female companions.

While enjoying the symphony that rises and falls, at this moment when dusk and twilight intertwine—

Waiting for everything to begin, and looking forward to an unforgettable encounter at the ballroom dance that follows.

……

Unforgettable...hehe, without a doubt—

Even looking at history, this auction was definitely the most unforgettable one for them.

Because this time, the attendees included more than just so-called celebrities.

Those who, in modern times, were forced to turn to the shadows due to the intimidation of the ruling council,

The beings who were above them also came to this ship because of their yearning for the sun, whose ownership was uncertain.

Still no news from Yinqing?

Because he had blocked the senses of those around him, Fan Wujiu, who could speak freely with those around him without restraint, asked with a headache.

"No... I asked around, and the child kept the whereabouts of the sun and her own body a secret from even the underworld."

"The connection between the moon and the sun is just as mysterious as the legends say."

Fan Wujiu's deputy, Xu Yuan, who is now ranked second in ability, said this with a mix of sarcasm and helplessness.

Before the show even started, the two people sitting in the seaside restaurant sighed in unison.

Theoretically speaking, they should be the most advantageous among all the people who came this time.

Even the mastermind behind the message was definitely not as high priority as them.

After all, Yin Qing is one of their people, and the current, unawakened "Sun" is right beside her.

But who could have imagined that the Yin-Yang Masters, who had only known each other for a few days, would go to such lengths for each other?

Even after seeing countless historical precedents in the database, the two still found it difficult to understand this relationship.

"No matter what, this is the only way for now—"

Xu Yuan was the first to accept the situation. He didn't blame or complain about Yin Qing. He had watched this girl grow up since she was a child, and she must have her reasons for making this choice.

Moreover, the Zen master had already given instructions before attending the Long Night Conference, instructing them to coordinate all matters concerning the sun with the actions of the Yin and Yang departments.

Therefore, now, he only has one question left to think about.

"So, based on my observations over the past few days, are you confident you can handle the other groups that have come?"

Xu Yuan looked at the powerful figure following him.

Fan Wujiu is absolutely at the peak of the fourth level, and can be called the pinnacle of the social security bureau's backbone. In the entire Far East region, people who are stronger than him on the surface should not be here.

So... what will his answer be?

"It's hard to say."

Under Xu Yuan's slightly surprised gaze, Fan Wujiu gave this answer.

"Those two from the two major sects of India are one thing, but what about the Yin-Yang Bureau and the Silent Sea..."

"It's really hard to say..."

Recalling the probing in Haidu over the past few days.

As always, Fan Wujiu touched his two naturally severed fingers and spoke in a low voice.

Meanwhile, not far away, in a private box at the "Pearl of the Sea Auction" venue.

The three-person team from the Australian Institute of Disaster Preparedness gathered together, their brows furrowed.

"At least for now, one thing is certain—the three of us are the weakest of all the newcomers."

"So I think we should just treat this mission as a formality."

"Anyway, our Disaster Prevention Institute is different from the other five parties. Historically, we have no connection with 'The Sun,' and no generation of 'The Sun' has ever served as our director."

The blond man at the head of the group waved his hand, clearly having no hope for the operation.

The remaining pair of twins wholeheartedly agreed with his assessment.

Nodding as she spoke, she complained about the old men in the courtyard who only knew how to make things difficult for people:

"Isn't it ridiculous to send three third-level beings to a battlefield dominated by fourth-level beings?"

"Are they just trying to make their presence felt, to avoid being completely forgotten?"

"Seriously... Putting everything else aside, that ascetic leader of the two major sects of India froze me in place yesterday with just one glance from afar—"

"Let us snatch people from these monsters. Those old bastards are really drunk; they'll think of anything."

The two twins from the Disaster Prevention Institute were all too aware of the terror posed by the two visitors from the two major sects of India.

Even under such circumstances, the person from the social security bureau was able to subdue them simply by virtue of his imposing presence...

Aside from the possibility of failure, the three couldn't think of any way to succeed in this mission.

As he thought this, he sensed the undisguised aura emanating from the ascetic on the ship.

Completely stunned and not daring to make any rash moves, the three looked up at the ceiling, feeling that the road ahead was extremely bleak.

"It seems everyone has arrived. Snake Princess, as planned, the Emperor is already waiting in the Pacific airspace."

"As soon as the sun appears—"

"Then the Emperor Emeritus will mobilize immediately, capture it, and bring it back to headquarters."

At the very top of the Oriental Pearl, Tsuchimikado Norito stands behind the Snake Princess.

He couldn't see the expression on the crazy woman's face, but he wasn't curious about it either.

There was only one promise he wanted, and that was...

"Has the Black Sword arrived yet?"

"Can you guarantee that he'll shield the president from the sun, who knows where he might be, if necessary?"

He had asked this question countless times these past few days, but Tsuchimikado Takahito didn't seem to mind.

Because there can be absolutely no mistakes in this matter, otherwise they will surely fail at the last hurdle.

"Don't worry..." The Snake Princess simply chuckled and whispered in response to Tsuchimikado Nobleman's unease and caution.

"He never misses a deal, and he never breaks a promise."

"But he wasn't facing just anyone, he was facing the President!"

Tsuchimikado Takato scoffed, "Even if it's just an avatar, it's still the undisputed strongest in the Far East today."

"You'd better pray he does it, otherwise if he makes a mistake, you'll be the first one to die."

The Snake Princess chuckled softly, remaining silent; the promise he made still echoed in her ears.

She believed that even Lü Buyi could not possibly break the ending he had set.

After all... that one was the original Taiyin!

Planning and undercurrents were brewing within the eighteen-story building, and at this very moment...

The stage that had been set up finally welcomed its protagonist.

The three people stepped onto the deck one after the other at different times.

The Oriental Pearl episode of "The Son of Yin and Yang" has begun!
