Chapter 216: Queen of Underground

The Master on the inside didn’t give any response.

“You may enter.” Su Mei said.

Afterward, Yang Dingtian strode inside.

His leg instantly went soft as though he was stepping on clouds. Without a doubt, he was stepping on the world’s most expensive carpet, which was knitted with the fur of the Sky Mountain Camel. Every foot would be a few thousand gold coins.

“Huff…” Suddenly the dark space had lit up!

It was extremely dazzling and had stung Yang Dingtian’s eyes.

It was even brighter than the twin suns during the daytime. Yang Dingtian couldn’t bear but shrink his eyes.

Immediately after, his eyes opened up abruptly, as he stared at everything in front of him with disbelief.

Was this the treasure room of the Dragon King?

Was he at the palace of the Divine Dragon?

Wherever Yang Dingtian’s eyes could see, there were gold, jewels, extremely expensive crystals, and mystical corals that could be found hundreds of thousands of meters into the sea.

There were extremely expensive pearls and countless high-grade demonic beast’s demon cores.

Every inch the eyes could see was filled with luster and splendor; every inch of space was oozing with light.

This was an absolutely gigantic underground palace.

All of the utensils were made with expensive craftwork of gems.

The entire surface of the ground was made with gold. All the chairs and couches were made with purple gold. All of the pillars were also made of gold.

Countless gold coins which were unending. Countless amethyst coins which were also unending like the ocean.

Countless gold and treasures that stacked several thousand square meters of the palace.

Yang Dingtian was suspecting if the entire world’s wealth had been amassed in this underground palace.

“My wealth here is enough for the entire Northwest Continent to pay tax for a century.” A hoarse and attractive face echoed.

This was the owner of this underground palace and also the owner of this auction house.

When hearing this attractive voice, Yang Dingtian shivered as it sounded familiar.

Yang Dingtian looked towards the source of the voice.

In the center of the palace hall, there was an enormous golden throne which took up several square meters.

It used at least a few tens of thousands of kilograms of gold and countless gems as decoration.

It had brilliant sculpting and engraving, which allowed the golden throne to emit a noble and imposing aura.

A woman was sitting on this golden throne on her side. She was a woman that looked like a devil but also a fairy. Under the golden radiance and behind the thin silk, she was faintly visible and looked extremely mesmerizing.

She had a remarkably stunning face and a pair of captivating eyes.

She was actually Madam Qin, that Madam Qin who left the auction in a fit.

“I am Qin Mengli, the owner of this underground palace, the owner of this auction house, and the true dictator of West Prefecture City.” This woman raised her shoulders lightly and spoke in a hoarse voice, “That’s right, I am the one that offered the Sky Devil Flame Saber and 8th-grade Devil Flame Saber Art for the auction.”

Yang Dingtian was stunned. This woman was well-versed in acting. During the auction, when she left in a fit because she couldn’t bid for the Devil Flame Saber Art, it looked so real. She was actually the owner for everything here, and the entire auction house belonged to her.

“I simply wanted to play with those fools on the auction. I was just too bored.” Qin Mengli spoke delicately.

Yang Dingtian was completely speechless. He was also considered half a fool that got played by her.

“I heard that you are being trapped by that clown, Ye Feng. As soon as you leave this place, you will be killed, and the manual will be snatched?” Qin Mengli asked with a charming voice. When mentioning that Young Lord Ye, her tone raised up slightly as though she was a queen that was in control of the world.

“Yes, Madam.” Yang Dingtian responded.

“Do you wish to live and to escape?” Madam Qin asked lazily.

“Of course.” Yang Dingtian said.

“In another two days, I will be going to Qin City to celebrate my elder brother’s birthday. It is truly boring during the journey, and I need a companion. If you are to become my temporary companion, that clown, Ye Feng won’t dare to touch even half of your finger. In the entire Northwest Continent, apart from me, no one would dare to touch you.” Madam Qin spoke with her hoarse voice and sent a captivating look at Yang Dingtian.

Yang Dingtian’s heart thumped abruptly.

He wanted to infiltrate the Qin City and obtain the other half of the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame’s map.

Becoming the companion of this Qin Mengli could be said as the best method.

If he went with his original plan to rise in the ranks and enter the eyes of Qin Huaiyu and others while becoming their trusted aide was truly a difficult task and would need an unknown amount of time.

Even if Yang Dingtian could cultivate to the Martial Mystic class, there were tons of martial artists in the Qin City of the same cultivation class. If Yang Dingtian wanted to become outstanding among them, it would be extremely difficult.

This Qin Mengli could be said as the No. 3 individual of the Northwest Qin Clan. If he could become her companion, he could immediately enter the highest echelon of the Qin City. This way, Yang Dingtian would save a considerable amount of time trying to obtain the other half of the Heaven and Earth Mystic Flame’s map, and the chances would be greater.

As for the possibility of sacrificing his dignity, apart from the fact that he was guilty towards Yanyan in his heart, Yang Dingtian wasn’t so unreasonable and thought himself to be a holy monk.

“Are you willing to be my companion for roughly half a month?” Qin Mengli asked.

“Of course, I am willing. I will die to have the chance.” Yang Dingtian replied.

“I don’t want you to die. I just want you to satisfy me.” Qin Mengli spoke tenderly, “But, it still isn’t enough for you to agree. It is still uncertain if I fancy you? You have a competitor, and it is that mysterious man from No. 100 private room. He had spent 250 million gold coins and a Dragon Dance Nine Heavens’ flying scroll to bid for your Transformation Elixir. Do you know why?”

Yang Dingtian said, “He had bid it as a gift for you.”

“That’s right…” Qin Mengli said, “I was determined to obtain this Transformation Elixir. When he snatched it away, I was spiteful that my teeth were itching. But afterward, he personally gave it to me and had pleasantly surprised me. Furthermore, he is much more handsome than you, and I am truly affected.”

“Come out then, my darling.” Qin Mengli clapped lightly.

From a dark corner, a man walked out.

This was that mysterious man from No. 100 private room. He was tall and muscular.

His entire body was filled with mysterious yet unrestrained aura.

He didn’t have those extremely handsome face, but he was filled with manliness. His eyes contained a wild and dangerous feeling.

He was 190 cm in height, and his entire body was bursting with power.

He was an homme fatale with attractiveness for women. He was filled with more charm than Yang Dingtian, who was currently disguised at Shen Lang.

“Shen Lang, Yan Bieqin, among the two of you, only one will become my companion.

“To be honest, I am more aroused by Bieqin. Had it not been for Su Mei’s persistently imploring, I wouldn’t even see you. Right now, I am giving you a fair chance to compete. In 15 minutes, you have to defeat your opponent and gain my affection. You will then become my companion and accompany me for half a month.”

*******************************

Yang Dingtian nearly wanted to blurt out without thinking, but abruptly stopped himself.

He knew what he was capable of. In terms of pure charm, he was inferior to this Yan Bieqin.

Be it looks, traits, or the methods to pursue a woman, even a man’s capability, Yang Dingtian felt inferior in all aspects.

Yang Dingtian couldn’t possibly say that he had a lot of inner qualities. He also couldn’t say that he was unique in this world and had come from another world. That would be the same as inviting a disaster.

Furthermore, that Yan Bieqin was simply looking at Yang Dingtian from the corner of his eyes. He was filled with self-confidence and didn’t even treat Yang Dingtian as an opponent.

“Compete in front of me. You can decide how to compete.” Madam Qin turned her body lazily and spoke delicately.

This Yan Bieqin finally spoke, “Brother Shen may suggest whatever you wish to compete. Martial artists, art, poetry, geology, anything… even bed skills.”

Yang Dingtian was speechless; there was nothing he could win with.

Of course, in terms of poetry, he had plenty of famous sayings from ancient China in his mind. Any one of them would be a perfect song. But, this world’s language and literature were different from ancient China. Those so-called poetries were more than songs and less of poems. Hence, if Yang Dingtian was to hum a tune of “Prelude To Water Melody,” it was almost certain that people would think he was a lunatic.

“Shen Lang, have you thought of a way to compete?” Madam Qin yawned and said, “I do not have so much time to wait for you.”

Yang Dingtian said, “I have thought of one.”

“What are you going to compete with?” Madam Qin asked.

“We will compete with games.” Yang Dingtian said, “I will design a game, Brother Yan will design a game. Whichever game Madam thinks is better, will win.”

Madam Qin’s beautiful eyes lit up when she heard of this idea.

To be honest, she wasn’t looking for a companion because she lacked men. How could she lack men? Countless handsome men would be willing to queue up to be her pet. She was just feeling bored.

Thus, Yang Dingtian’s idea was just her cup of tea. She was truly worried that Yang Dingtian was just like those men who considered themselves outstanding and would compete with sword arts, or things like poetry.

“Alright, the competition will be on this.” Madam Qin agreed.

Yang Dingtian suggested, “Then we will set four hours as the limit. Within these four hours, the two of us will design our games with tools and such.”

Yan Bieqin took a deep glance at Yang Dingtian before nodding and said, “Sure.”

Madam Qin said, “If you need to produce tools. I have everything here. You can make use of anything.”

Yang Dingtian said, “Thanks, Madam. I wish to invite Young Lady Su Mei to assist me.”

“No problem.” Madam Qin let out a lovely smile. “As I said, anything can be used as a tool. That naturally includes Su Mei!”

This statement was truly rude. Su Mei was a human but was addressed as a tool. But Su Mei didn’t have any opinions about that.

*******************************************

In one of the rooms, there were various kinds of gems, gold, silver, and anything that was required.

Yang Dingtian was sitting on the chair and thinking about the kind of game he should design. Su Mei stood beside and looked at him nervously.

“Do you think I can win?” Yang Dingtian laughed and asked.

“Who will think you can win?” Su Mei smiled and said, “I feel that Yan Bieqin is much more charming.”

She was rather good that telling the truth.
