Li Jiayin and Xu Wendong drew attention as they arrived. Xu Wendong boldly put his arm around Li Jiayin, claiming her as his, surprising onlookers but making Li Jiayin feel secure. They then examined a Glazed Seven-color Sword, which Li Jiayin deemed unsuitable, revealing her own powerful Ice Crystal Long Sword. Master Fu, impressed, then presented ten powerful Netherworld Talismans, which Li Jiayin offered to Xu Wendong just as someone else declared they would buy them all.

In the corridor on the second floor.

The sound of light footsteps approached from afar, and everyone turned to look. They saw a girl dressed in white walking gracefully towards them.

Her hair was styled into playful twin-tails, swaying gently with her steps, like two lively butterflies.

Her pretty face was like a meticulously carved jade, her eyebrows and eyes like a painting, with bright, spirited eyes exuding liveliness and playfulness.

She was just a bit petite and slightly thin, giving the impression of being not fully developed.

Xu Wendong glanced once and immediately thought of two words: Loli.

"It’s actually her?" Li Jiayin heard the noise, slowly turned around to look, and her once smiling eyebrows immediately knit into a frown.

Her expression quickly turned somewhat gloomy, with a hint of obvious displeasure in her eyes.

Seeing this, Xu Wendong was filled with curiosity and asked, "Senior Sister, who is she?"

"The direct disciple of the Hall Master of the Divine Yin Hall, Loli," Li Jiayin introduced coldly, her voice carrying a slight, indistinguishable note of disdain.

"Is her name really Loli?" Xu Wendong looked astonished.

This girl already looked very much like a loli, and unexpectedly her name suited her appearance perfectly, truth indeed is stranger than fiction.

"Master Fu, wrap it up for me," Loli came up, her tone quite domineering.

Despite her small stature, the aura around her was anything but weak.

Following her were a few disciples from the Divine Yin Hall, each with a straight posture and sharp eyes.

These disciples had impressive cultivation levels, all having reached the power level of the Tongyou Realm, exuding a faintly powerful aura around them.

"This..." Master Fu’s face showed a trace of embarrassment.

His gaze wandered back and forth between Li Jiayin and Loli, like someone caught between two fiery balls, unwilling to touch either one lightly.

On one side was the daughter of the Sect Master of the Heavenly Nether Sect; on the other side, the direct disciple of the Hall Master of the Divine Yin Hall. Neither could be offended easily.

"Don’t you understand first come, first served? We saw this Thunder Roaring Hundred Feet Talisman first." Li Jiayin’s eyebrows furrowed tightly, her tone full of displeasure.

She had crossed paths with Loli many times, each encounter leading to endless squabbles. Seeing Loli trying to snatch what she had her eyes on only stoked her anger further.

Loli’s lips curled into a slight, disdainful smile, a smile sharp with ridicule like a knife.

"What first come, first served? I only know whoever pays first enjoys first!"

After saying this, she swiftly tossed out a storage bag. It made an arc in the air, landing squarely in front of Master Fu.

She lifted her chin slightly and said to Master Fu, "Two million Nether Crystals, no need for a discount, I’ll buy these ten Thunder Roaring Hundred Feet Talismans at full price."

Her voice was clear and loud, carrying an undeniable confidence, overpowering Li Jiayin instantly with such a display of financial power.

The followers behind her also showed mocking smiles.

Their eyes were full of contempt for Li Jiayin.

Though Li Jiayin was as beautiful as one could be, they belonged to a different power, and with Loli by their side, they naturally stood firmly with the Divine Yin Hall.

"Do you think I can’t afford it?" Anger flickered in Li Jiayin’s eyes.

"Two million five hundred thousand Nether Crystals, I’ll take it."

Upon hearing this, everyone around took a collective gasp.

People started whispering to one another.

The rumors about them were true; these two fought each time they met.

They represented their respective sects, and now, competing over the Thunder Roaring Hundred Feet Talisman meant whoever gave in first would bring shame to their sect.

"Senior Sister, it’s really unnecessary." Xu Wendong laughed awkwardly, with a bit of helplessness in his smile.

He had just carefully examined the Thunder Roaring Hundred Feet Talisman and found, with his formidable learning ability, that it was relatively easy to craft. He had already memorized its creation method.

Isn’t it just a third-grade Nether Talisman?

He was confident he could draw it once he returned, and produce as many as needed.

Since it was so lucrative, he might even sell a few within the Heavenly Nether Sect.

After all, Xu Wendong was indeed somewhat strapped for cash at the moment.

"Three million Nether Crystals!" Hearing Li Jiayin increase the bid, Loli immediately and unhesitatingly raised the price.

Her eyes shimmered with stubbornness and competitiveness; she was determined to win.

"Three million five hundred thousand Nether Crystals!" Li Jiayin scoffed, showing a disdainful smile.

Having just sold the Ten Thousand Years Agarwood, she was truly affluent now, having no fear of Loli’s challenge.

"Li Jiayin, do you really think you’re so capable? This Thunder Roaring Hundred Feet Talisman, I’ve already decided!" Loli’s emotions were slightly heightened, raising her voice involuntarily.

She had always been compared to Li Jiayin, coming up short each time, harboring a fury within.

This time, she chanced upon a perfect opportunity to surpass Li Jiayin and let out the frustration she held inside.

"Four million Nether Crystals!" Loli gritted her teeth, calling out again.

Master Fu watched this scene, grinning widely, eyes narrowing to slits.

Originally planning to sell these Nether Talismans for a discounted one million eight hundred thousand, he unexpectedly encountered these two "Gods of Wealth," Loli and Li Jiayin.

They were not ones to lack money; once the competition started, the scene was unimaginably fierce!

"Four hundred..." Li Jiayin was about to continue bidding, but Xu Wendong could no longer hold back.

He gently tugged on Li Jiayin’s clothes and whispered in her ear, "Senior Sister, I can create this talisman."

Upon hearing this, Li Jiayin showed a shocked expression.

Her eyes widened as if she had seen something incredible.

Xu Wendong was also a Nether Talisman Master?

How many secrets was this guy hiding!

Capable of Alchemy, with high talent, and also mastering the art of drawing Nether Talismans, it was truly a well-rounded talent!

"You... really?" Li Jiayin was astounded, her eyes full of skepticism.

She looked at Xu Wendong as if gazing at a mysterious treasure.

"Junior Brother, this is a third-grade Nether Talisman. Once missed, it’s gone. Can you draw a third-grade Nether Talisman?" Her voice carried a hint of uncertainty, filled with anticipation.

Xu Wendong nodded firmly, his eyes reflecting confidence.

Drawing Nether Talismans was indeed quite simple for him.

After all, the host was adept in creating Nether Talismans, and through continuous practice and learning, his ability to draw them was natural. Drawing a third-grade Nether Talisman was certainly within his grasp.

"This..." Li Jiayin was even more surprised.

She felt that her knowledge of Xu Wendong was nowhere near enough—this junior brother seemed to have endless surprises waiting for her to uncover!
