The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO-Chapter 1839 - 1836: A Heavy Atmosphere

Aside from Cheng Minxue, no one else in the entire auction hall could see the contents of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture. After being confirmed by Baili, Cheng Minxue indeed turned out to be the fated individual for it.

"Miss Cheng Minxue, if you want to bid on this Wordless Heavenly Scripture, you must promise the other party something. Are you willing?" Baili asked.

Cheng Minxue’s clear voice came through: "Can I first ask what promise he needs from me?"

At this moment, a man in black walked up and said in a deep voice, "Miss Cheng, I’m sorry, but I can’t say right now. However, what I can assure you is that I will not make a promise that will trouble you!"

Cheng Minxue hesitated for a moment, then said, "Sir, if you don’t clarify now, I might not bid on this Wordless Heavenly Scripture."

Cheng Minxue’s words shocked everyone present. They didn’t expect someone to actually refuse the allure of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture; they even doubted whether they’d misheard.

The man in black was also stunned. He had already said so much, yet the other party refused. How could this be? Didn’t she want to know the secrets of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture? Didn’t she want to leave the Ancient Ruins? How was this possible!

"Wait!" The man in black hurriedly said, "Miss Cheng, could I speak to you alone?"

After obtaining the consent of the Head of the Cheng Family, the man in black came into the Cheng family’s private room.

Through close observation, Ling Feng discovered that the strength of this man in black was actually at the Pinnacle of the Azure Sky Realm, and he did not hide his cultivation or appearance, which showed this person was quite confident in his strength.

"Miss Cheng!" The man in black assessed Cheng Minxue up and down and said in a deep voice, "You can see the contents of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, which means you are the fated one for it. You may have the chance to understand its contents and find a way to escape the constraints of the Ancient Ruins. Aren’t you tempted?"

Cheng Minxue softly said, "Of course I am, but I prefer an unrestrained life. If your request would restrict me, I’d rather not have the Wordless Heavenly Scripture."

The man in black let out a wry smile and said, "Haven’t I already said that I wouldn’t propose a promise that would trouble you?"

"But how can you guarantee that your promise won’t trouble me?" Cheng Minxue said, "Unless you tell me now what promise you want me to fulfill, otherwise, I won’t accept it!"

The man in black’s face looked conflicted. He didn’t want to tell Cheng Minxue in advance, but he hadn’t expected that she could resist the temptation of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, which was beyond his expectation.

"Fine, I can tell you in advance, if you unravel the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, I need you to help us with something related to it. That’s all I can say!" The man in black said in a deep voice, "And I can also promise you that if you find it difficult, you can unilaterally stop the promise."

Cheng Minxue was somewhat surprised; wasn’t this compromise from the man in black a bit too much?

However, having said it to this extent, Cheng Minxue had no choice but to nod. Obtaining the Wordless Heavenly Scripture was indeed an unexpected delight for her.

Seeing Cheng Minxue agree, the man in black showed a look of elation, and then he and Cheng Minxue signed a Soul Contract. If either party violated the promise in the future, they would suffer the pain of soul burning.

"Miss Cheng, the Wordless Heavenly Scripture is now yours. I hope you can quickly comprehend its contents!" The man in black took a deep look at Cheng Minxue and said, "Once you have understood it, everything will become clear!"

Cheng Minxue asked, "You... who exactly are you?"

The man in black smiled slightly, "Once you comprehend the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, you’ll know my identity. I look forward to our next meeting!"

After speaking, the man in black turned and left.

Cheng Minxue held the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, which turned into a stream of light and shot into her mind.

"Xiaoxue, are you alright?" The Head of the Cheng Family showed a worried expression.

Cheng Minxue shook her head and said, "I’m fine... It’s just that the Wordless Heavenly Scripture has entered my body, it seems... to have acknowledged me as its master."

Ling Feng and the Head of the Cheng Family were greatly surprised; the Wordless Heavenly Scripture acknowledged a master so quickly, almost as if it couldn’t wait.

"The Wordless Heavenly Scripture is very mysterious; Xueer, you must not take it lightly. If you notice anything unusual, you must tell us!" Ling Feng said seriously.

Cheng Minxue showed a slight smile, "I know, thank you, Brother Ling, for your concern!"

With the last auction item finished, it signified the successful conclusion of this auction. The Cheng family was undoubtedly the big winner of this auction.

"Let’s go quickly!" The Head of the Cheng Family said softly, "Right now, our Cheng family is the target of many, and there’s no guarantee that some desperate individuals won’t harbor different thoughts about us."

"Really?" Cheng Minxue frowned and said, "Do they really have the guts?"

"Money moves the heart!" The Head of the Cheng Family said seriously, "The items we previously auctioned weren’t worth their trouble, but the Wordless Heavenly Scripture is the most mysterious and important thing in the entire Ancient Ruins. Now that it’s in our hands, do you think these people will let us go easily?"

Ling Feng also said, "The Head of the Cheng Family is right, we must be extra cautious now, and leverage the power of the Canglan Commerce to protect ourselves as much as possible. Only when we reach Cheng’s territory can we be truly safe." 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Cheng Minxue showed a regretful look, "So I should not have..."

"Xueer, it’s not your fault!" The Head of the Cheng Family patted Cheng Minxue’s shoulder and said, "You are the fated individual for the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, this is your destiny, as well as your trial. You can’t avoid it, and there’s no need to. What you need to do is comprehend the Wordless Heavenly Scripture and face this challenge head-on!"

Ling Feng also smiled and said, "Yes, we will surely protect you."

As Ling Feng and his group left the auction through a side door, they didn’t notice a pair of eyes watching them.

"I never thought that the thug would collude with the Cheng family. Now this is interesting! The Wordless Heavenly Scripture, our Emperor Seal Chamber of Commerce is determined to get it."

...

In the Storm Sect’s private room, Elder Ye’s face showed excitement, "This auction is simply the starting point of my rise. Now, arrange people immediately, I not only want to get the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, but also the Soul Consoling Tree, then I’ll have enough confidence to refine the Avatar Embryo. It is truly a stroke of destiny!"

The auction ended, but the atmosphere was incredibly heavy, with a feeling as if a storm was about to break.
