Chapter 1654: Show Me How to Roll

Before the main hall of Tianluoji, many powerful figures slowly entered.

Those who could enter here were basically all at the Divine Lord realm.

Those at the Return to Void realm, even if they had wealth, couldn't even buy scraps at the entrance.

To enter the Chuanji Auction, one naturally had to undergo asset verification; without tens of billions in assets, one couldn't even get through the door.

"Please present your invitation," the guard said, blocking Ye Yuan's way.

Ye Yuan was about to take out the Supreme Token when a mocking voice sounded in his ear.

"Get lost! A mere Return to Void realm trying to enter the auction—how utterly presumptuous!"

The speaker was a young man at the first level of Divine Lord.

But behind him followed an old man at the fourth level of Divine Lord.

Being able to have a fourth-level Divine Lord as an attendant clearly indicated that this young man was of extraordinary status.

Ye Yuan frowned—everywhere he went, there were always show-offs.

You go to your auction, I go to mine—what business is it of yours?

The young man handed over his invitation and said to the guard at the door, "Your Tianluoji really lets anyone in? What can a Return to Void realm do inside?"

Although Ye Yuan's Void Spirit Divine Pill had caused a sensation throughout the city, only a few had actually seen his face.

This guard clearly did not recognize Ye Yuan.

The guard glanced at the invitation and quickly bowed, saying, "So it's Young Master Jinglu of Quyang Imperial City. Forgive my offense. In reply to Young Master Jinglu, anyone with a Tianluoji invitation can enter the auction. There is no restriction on cultivation level."

The guard's words astonished everyone around.

"That's Young Master Jinglu of Quyang Imperial City? I heard he's a peerless genius, already at the early Return to Void realm at birth, and broke through to the first level of Divine Lord at just five hundred years old!"

"I've heard that too. It's said that his breakthrough to the Heavenly God realm is almost a certainty."

"But I also heard that Young Master Jinglu is notoriously domineering, often bullying others," someone whispered.

...

Clearly, Jinglu was widely known, and many had heard of him.

Hearing the praise around him, Jinglu felt immensely proud; he thoroughly enjoyed this kind of envious gaze.

"You wouldn't be so bored as to send an invitation to a Return to Void realm, would you? Kid, do you have an invitation?" Jinglu asked Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan was amused by this guy and said with a smile, "An invitation? I really don't have one."

Jinglu's face darkened, and he said arrogantly, "If you don't have an invitation, then get lost. Do you want me to send you rolling away?"

Ye Yuan said calmly, "What does 'rolling' look like? Show me how you roll?"

Seeing that Ye Yuan didn't take him seriously at all, Jinglu's face darkened, and he said coldly, "You reckless fool, a mere Return to Void realm dares to speak to me like that! Fine, I'll show you what rolling looks like!"

Around them, many felt that Ye Yuan was very unwise.

Clearly lacking strength, yet so stubborn—this wasn't backbone, this was a death wish.

With that, Jinglu unleashed his aura and kicked toward Ye Yuan's chest.

Behind Jinglu, the old man's aura locked tightly onto Ning Tianping.

If Ning Tianping made the slightest move, he would strike.

But to his surprise, Ning Tianping showed no sign of moving; instead, a mocking smile appeared on his face.

This kick carried the power of the world—how could an ordinary Return to Void realm be a match?

People seemed to already see the scene of Ye Yuan being kicked to death.

However, just as the kick was about to hit Ye Yuan, Ye Yuan's body seemed to shift half a step as if teleporting.

Bang!

A heavy punch landed squarely on Jinglu's face!

This punch was so sudden that Jinglu was sent flying backward, rolling on the ground for over ten zhang before stopping.

This turn of events was too abrupt; no one had reacted.

"What did I just see? A Return to Void realm punched a Divine Lord flying?"

"No! I must be seeing things! That's impossible!"

"Wasn't Jinglu said to be a genius that appears once in a hundred thousand years? How is he so weak?"

"That kid just used... the Law of Space! My god, the Law of Space!"

...

This scene was already routine for Ning Tianping, but for others, it was utterly shocking.

A Return to Void realm had actually punched a Divine Lord flying—this was too颠覆.

"So that's how you roll. Such an ugly posture—I'll pass," Ye Yuan said with a smile.

Jinglu scrambled to his feet, his facial features twisted, his nose sore and tears streaming down, looking utterly miserable.

He roared at the old man, "Uncle Huang, kill him! I want him dead!"

The old man's gaze sharpened, and he said coldly, "Young man, you're asking for death!"

Ye Yuan ignored him and took out the Supreme Token, showing it to the guard. "I don't have an invitation, only this. Can I enter?"

The guard's eyes widened in shock. "Supreme Token! My... my lord, I was blind and offended you. I'm... I'm sorry!"

The Supreme Token was the highest level of invitation for this auction, reserved for major figures.

Given his status, he simply couldn't afford to offend such a person.

Seeing this token, his heart began to pound.

Just as Uncle Huang was about to lose his temper, the guard suddenly said coldly, "Stop! This lord is one of the most honored guests of Chuanji Royal City. If you dare to lay a hand on him, you will be opposing the three major powers!"

Uncle Huang and Jinglu wondered if they had misheard.

A mere Return to Void realm was one of the most honored guests of Chuanji Royal City?

Jinglu said darkly, "How dare you speak to me like that?"

But the guard stood his ground. "I'm sorry, Young Master Jinglu is naturally an important guest, but we have orders that any guest holding the Supreme Token must be received with the highest honors! If you dare to attack this lord, I'm afraid we'll have no choice but to apologize!"

Not only Jinglu, but everyone else also looked at Ye Yuan in shock.

They simply couldn't understand how a mere Return to Void realm could be the most honored guest.

"Hmph! A mere second-level Divine Lord, what can you do to me? Uncle Huang, what are you waiting for? Attack!"

The guard was only at the second level of Divine Lord, so Jinglu didn't take him seriously at all and directly ordered Uncle Huang to act.

But Uncle Huang hesitated.

Before coming, the Grand Elder had solemnly instructed him not to conflict with the three major powers.

Chuanji Royal City was just a royal city; without some background, how could it stand firm?

You see, around Chuanji Royal City, there were three imperial cities, including Quyang Imperial City.

Yet these three imperial cities had very weak control over Chuanji Royal City.

In other words, Chuanji Royal City was an independent kingdom.

Uncle Huang was not a playboy like Jinglu; he understood the gravity of the situation.

Killing a Return to Void realm was easy, but the guard had made it very clear.

Ye Yuan was the most honored guest!

Even they, with their status, did not have the Supreme Token.

The importance of this token was evident.

"Young master, let's forget it. Better to avoid trouble than to court it. Let's go inside," Uncle Huang said.
