Liu Liyuan took out a book and showed its cover to the audience.

The pages had turned slightly yellow and the book was about as thick as the width of two fingers. On the cover, the words “Danyang Fist” were written in gold.

“The Danyang Fist is the technique that allowed someone to rise to fame. It’s actually making an appearance like this?” someone exclaimed.

“That’s right. I didn’t expect that after the death of Yan Pengfei, who was once renowned throughout East Lake City, his descendants would not be able to protect his technique after only a few years,” the person beside him replied.

“What is Liu Liyuan trying to do? Yan Pengfei was a warrior who had reached the second stage of the warrior realm when he was alive. If the martial arts technique he used to cultivate when he was alive is auctioned off publicly, even if it’s incomplete, it will definitely cause a bloodbath.”

Those who had heard of Yan Pengfei immediately recognized the history behind this fist technique.

Many who were already interested in the technique strongly desired the book and wanted to snatch it into their hands. However, the manual was with Liu Liyuan, so they had to follow the rules.

“I’m sure all of you can’t wait any longer, but there’s a matter that needs to be cleared up first. This book on the Danyang Fist Technique lacks the most important part — the concept diagram,” Liu Liyuan said bluntly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the people who were interested in the book immediately had a disappointed expression on their faces.

Without the concept diagram, the book’s value would be reduced by at least 90%. The difference from the audiences’ expectations was like that between heaven and earth.

Many people who had intended to bid for the book immediately calmed down. Without the most important concept diagram, the rest of the technique could only be used as a reference.

When Chen Yiming heard the discussion going on around him, he thought doubtfully, “Could it be that the halfpiece of bone I obtained from Long Denghua is the concept diagram that they mentioned?’

The pattern on the surface of the bone was that of tree branch-like lines. When he heard the term “concept diagram” , he immediately thought back to the pattern on the bone which was like a lightning bolt that was constantly splitting into more lines.

The term “concept map” and the image of lightning splitting up seemed to be a perfect match on the surface.

“However , although it lacks the concept diagram in the original, we invited the provincial city’s Master Wang to help us reproduce the concept map from the book’s contents on the fist technique.

I believe everyone has heard of Master Wang’s ability. Although this manual cannot be compared to the original, it is definitely not worthless,” Liu Liyuan said as he swept his gaze across the audience.

A complete cultivation technique that led straight to the warrior realm included the cultivation technique and concept diagram. The cultivation technique was divided into two parts. One part explained all the moves of the technique, and the other part explained the sequence of drawing the concept diagram.

Unless one was a master who specialized in studying this field, one would need both the cultivation technique and the concept diagram. One had to follow the experiences accumulated by their predecessors instead of blindly creating their own concept diagram. If one was unlucky, they would end up with a mental breakdown at the very least, and death at the worst.

“ftvo billion.”

Someone immediately raised their sign. Master Wang was well-known in the Jiangnan District, so there was no need to hesitate.

“2.1 billion.”

In less than a second, someone raised the bid.

“2.2 billion.”

“Five billion.”

In just a few minutes, the bid had already increased to ten times the price for the first item that could help one break through the ninth transformation.

“Is this unofficial fist technique really worth that much money?’ Chen Yiming’s eyes widened in shock

No matter how he looked at it, the half piece of bone he had seemed to be authentic. If he could find the missing part of the concept diagram, it meant that he could immediately create a complete cultivation technique.

The people participating in the auction looked nervously at their competitors. From time to time, someone would leave the hall to make a call.

After bidding for nearly half an hour, the winning bid was 7-45 billion yuan, which was made by a middle-aged man in a suit.

“Who is that person? He didn’t hesitate at all during the bidding from the start to the end,” someone asked after the auction ended.

“It’s the chairman of Golden Phoenix Real Estate, Xiao Hengliang,” someone near him answered.

Perhaps many people did not know of Xiao Hengliang, but the Golden Phoenix Real Estate Group had become famous in East Lake City in the past year.

The company’s main business was the development of real estate projects in the city center. Because of the war in the west, they made a huge profit. It was said that his net worth increased by dozens of times in just a year.

“Hehe, Xiao Hengliang is indeed wealthy, but it’s hard to say if he can safely take the manual away.” Someone sneered.

“That’s right. In the Peninsula Villa, with Liu Liyuan’s presence restraining

them, no one dares to make a move. But after leaving the villa, they won’t have any scruples,” someone replied.

Earlier, there had been at least 20 people competing for the book through the auction. This did not include those who had planned to steal it from the start. With so many people targeting Xiao Hengliang, it could be said that an inescapable net was laid down around him.

Soon, Xiao Hengliang, who was the topic of discussion among the audience, paid up on the spot and received the book that he had bid for. His expression remained calm throughout.

He swept his gaze across the people around him and directly flipped through the manual on the stage. His calm and collected demeanor surprised many people, as if he was completely unconcerned about the inevitable fight that he would soon face.

Liu Liyuan thought that Xiao Hengliang was checking the authenticity of the manual, so he stood at the side and waited patiently.

“I don’t understand. Why isn’t he leaving as soon as possible? If this drags on, isn’t he giving others time to arrange an ambush?” someone asked doubtfully.

“Could it be that Xiao Hengliang wants to memorize the manual directly? But ordinary people can’t replicate the concept diagram at all. It’s really strange since it would still be needed for his future cultivation, ” someone voiced their conjecture and immediately countered it.

Nearly half an hour had passed. Other than those who left after the auction ended, everyone in the hall was watching to see how Xiao Hengliang would deal with the situation.

Chen Yiming was no exception. He was thinking about how he could obtain the Danyang Fist Technique from Xiao Hengliang and use it to investigate the piece of bone he had.

“Master Wang’s work is truly wonderful. I don’t see any problems with it.” Xiao Hengliang praised. As he spoke, he tore off the page with the concept

diagram and stuffed it into his pocket. Then, he passed the rest of the manual back to Liu Liyuan.

“Then…”

Before Liu Liyuan could finish speaking, the fist technique manual that was missing the concept diagram was returned to his hands. He didn’t expect Xiao Hengliang to do this.

If there was even the slightest mistake in his memory, he would have wasted more than seven billion yuan.

Everyone below the stage was dumbfounded. They didn’t expect Xiao

Hengliang to be so confident in his memory. At the same time, the people who had wanted to make a move were also caught in a dilemma.

During the first later, if they landed too severe a blow on Xiao Hengliang and accidentally killed him, they would only be able to obtain the concept diagram at most. The rest of the cultivation technique would be in Liu Liyuan’s hands.

Liu Liyuan was a warrior candidate who had undergone nine transformations. If he was unwilling to sell it, who could get it from him by force?

Since Xiao Hengliang was not weak, it would not be easy to capture him alive, especially since there were many people after him. Each of them had their own ideas and could not work together, so the probability of failure was very high.

Chen Yiming was equally flabbergasted. Liu Wanqing had just gifted a house to the Chen family. He couldn’t possibly attack her father on the same day. He wouldn’t do such a thing.

Xiao Hengliang had memorized the contents of the manual and calmly left the villa while everyone was still in shock

Soon, most of the people in the hall left. Chen Yiming, Wei Chaoyuan, and Shi Changyi had still not left.

“You guys have no intention of joining in the fun either?” Wei Chaoyuan asked directly.

“Let’s forget it. I’m afraid that something might happen to my frail little body. It’s the same even if we wait for the news tomorrow,” Shi Changyi replied. “Me too,” Chen Yiming replied. The technique wasn’t with Xiao Hengliang, so he lost interest in it.

The last time he questioned Long Denghua, he didn’t manage to get anything out of him and could only kill him with one strike. This time, there were a lot of people targeting Xiao Hengliang, and the success rate was almost zero.

Just as the three of them were about to leave, they noticed that Liu Wanqing, who was wearing a cream-colored gown, had walked over at some point. “Chen Yiming, you’re still here? Are you not interested in that fist technique manual? Oh yes, I forgot that you have the Mantis Snake Sword Technique. Why would you need to behave like those people?”

Wei Chaoyuan and Shi Changyi were both taken aback. They had not expected Chen Yiming to know Liu Wanqing. From her tone of voice, it seemed like they had a close relationship.

“I’m still far from that. Besides, the manual isn’t of much use to me,” Chen Yiming replied cautiously. He didn’t want anyone to notice that something was amiss.

“You’re too humble. Did you think no one knew about your performance at the Nuhe Mountain Range?” Wan Qing said with a smile. In an instant, she had changed from a cold and aloof supreme-rulerdess to a big sister next door.

Chen Yiming laughed and didn’t want to continue the conversation.

“Chen Yiming, are you interested in mutant beasts that possess innate abilities from the otherworld?” Wan Qing quickly changed the topic.

“Tell me about it,” Chen Yiming replied.

Liu Wanqing looked at Wei Chaoyuan and Shi Changyi, and the two of them tactfully took their leave.

“This is not a good place to talk,” Wan Qing said with a smile..
