The iron cage fell onto the round platform in the center of the auction hall.

The young man staggered forward, gripping the iron cage tightly. Half of his hair slid forward from his left shoulder.

Layers of white and red gauze wrapped around his body, with intricately drawn dark runes entwining and winding, as if they were imprints left by the gods on his body.

Just like the three-petaled blood flower in the corner of his right eye.

It drove people crazy.

After leaving the Holy Water, his body seemed to show signs of withering, with blood vessels faintly visible.

Centered around the round platform, one after another, people stood up from their seats, crazily, obsessively, excitedly staring at the faintly visible blood vessels beneath his pale skin.

He was not mature enough to bloom yet; the blood vessels only faintly revealed a trace, not clear enough.

But he could already capture those colors, red almost to the point of blackness.

Red and black were the most forbidden and sacred colors in the Furen County, the colors closest to the deities.

This young man who opened the show was the most exciting "flower servant" in these years.

Seeing him was like seeing the fulfillment of all desires.

"One million gold coins!"

"Five million gold coins!"

"Ten million gold coins!"

Before the boss even started speaking, the people below eagerly competed to bid for him.

They stood up, wildly waving their arms at him, shouting out their bids hoarsely, as if possessing him would grant them everything.

They absolutely had to acquire him, no matter the cost!

Their eyes emitted a strong white light, no longer able to see clarity in their pupils.

Boss Qi, who was backstage and witnessed this scene, excitedly rubbed his hands together. As he looked at the young man, he already saw the fulfillment of his own desires.

The bidding below continued without stopping, lasting for a long time until a deep and aged voice resounded.

"One hundred million gold coins," the voice said.

The bidding voices reluctantly and resentfully ceased.

Ning Su blinked, surprised to discover that he was worth so much. He followed the sound to see who the big spender was.

It was an elderly person, but it was difficult to determine his exact age. His face had few wrinkles, and his hair was black. However, he emitted a sense of old age that couldn't be concealed.

The iron cage was opened, and Ning Su slowly walked out from inside.

The old man nodded slightly at him, then looked toward the backstage area and said, "Boss Qi, bring out his companion."

With the circular stage as the center, the auction house presented four semicircular sections, each separated by a black track that served as a pathway for pushing the iron cages or for pedestrian use.

Boss Qi walked over from one of the black paths and brought several players along.

Ning Su took a glance and saw Zhu Shuangshuang.

Boss Qi pulled Zhu Shuangshuang out of the iron cage and said, "This is his companion, and they have the best relationship."

The old man nodded, about to speak, when the black-clothed girl beside him suddenly spoke up. Her voice carried a hint of laughter and an excited sense of pleasure. "No, not her. It's the long-haired male flower servant."
