Chapter 349 I, the Duke of Dark Night, will be loyal to my master!
It was a matter of life and death at this moment, and there was no point in worrying about how the other party would deal with me.

However, when Ying Heng finished everything, the Duke of Dark Night found that there was nothing unusual except that he had more true energy in his body.

Ying Heng looked at the Dark Night Duke who was constantly checking his body, and said, "I only set a true qi seal on your heart. As long as I want, it can be detonated with just a thought. Normally, it will not affect you."

"As for your soul mark, I have kept it."

"But it doesn't make much difference. After all, if the body dies, the soul will also cease to exist."

"But since you asked, I will accept it."

Upon hearing this, the Duke of Dark Night looked gloomy.

However, he nodded helplessly and knelt down to bow deeply to Ying Heng.

Since you are already a slave, be humble.

Maybe he would make himself stronger.

"My noble master, I, the Duke of Dark Night, am willing to give everything to show my loyalty!"

Ying Heng didn't care. He helped the Duke of Dark Night up and took him back to the auction house.

However, this time, he did not intend to let anyone know that he had made the Duke of Dark Night a pawn, nor did he want to reveal the depth of his own strength.

Ying Heng keenly sensed that the Rose Duke was becoming the target of public criticism. He knew very well that if this continued, all his cards would probably be exposed.

This Roman Duke is an extraordinary person, so leaving a hidden chess piece behind may bring an unexpected turn of events.

Perhaps, friction can create extraordinary sparks.

Ying Heng returned to the auction house. The Duke of Rose seemed particularly anxious and hurried to his side.

"Are you okay? I just saw the Duke of Dark Night leave. He might..."

However, Ying Heng looked indifferent and glanced at the Duke of Dark Night who had just returned to his seat.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. Let's continue the auction. There may be more treasures next."

Seeing that Ying Heng didn't care, the Duke of Rose breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as he is safe and sound, everything can be discussed.

So everyone sat down again and the auction continued.

At the same time, the two sons of the Dark Night Duke looked at their father excitedly and asked, "Father, have you taught those three a lesson?"

Looking at the two children, the Duke of Dark Night couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

After all, the impulse caused him to temporarily lose his freedom.

But he did not blame them, just patted them on the shoulders gently.

"I'm sorry, kids, Dad didn't make it."

When these words came out, the two children were stunned. In their eyes, their father was the best of the Roman strongmen!
The Duke of Darkness went on to explain: "There was nothing I could do. This guy was too good at hiding. I couldn't find him at all, so I couldn't teach him a lesson."

"Next time, if there's a chance, I'll definitely teach him a lesson!"

Upon hearing this, the two brothers were immediately overjoyed.

"Great! Dad is the best!"

"Haha! I look forward to seeing the Duke of Rose next time. I must teach him a lesson!"

But they did not realize the deep helplessness of the Duke of Dark Night.

The second half of the auction continued, and Ying Heng did not have high expectations at first.

He thought there was no treasure to be found here.

It is a pleasant surprise to be able to find some useful resources at an auction.

However, unexpectedly, not only did many top-grade medicinal materials appear, but also mysterious talismans, and even damaged ancient books and unknown skills were put on the table!
These treasures are hidden among seemingly ordinary goods. Or, they are originally simple and ancient, but their uniqueness has been overlooked due to their age.

These items usually appear as accessories or even gifts. After seeing them, Ying Heng immediately instructed the Duke of Rose and the Duke of Dark Night to put them in his pocket!

At first, after witnessing several rounds of bidding by the Dark Night Duke, the Rose Duke wanted to compete with him...

After all, since Ying Heng was so eager for this seemingly empty book, he had to get it!
After the Duke of Darkness made his bid, the Duke of Rose could no longer hold back and planned to offer a higher price.

After all, he is also one of the most powerful dukes in the empire!

Many of the wealthy nobles present had witnessed his feud with the Duke of Rose. If he admitted defeat here, he would only become a laughing stock of the Duke of Darkness in the future.

Just as the Duke of Rose stood up and prepared to bid, he was gently pulled back by Ying Heng.

"Sit down, and let him take this item. Save your money for the next item."

The Duke of Rose was very anxious: "But the Duke of Dark Night has already bought many of your favorite things. If this continues, what else can you get at this auction?!"

Looking at Rose, who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, Ying Heng couldn't help but smile.

Young man, there is no need to compete financially with your opponents now.

However, there are some reasons that he is not in a position to reveal, that is, the Duke of Darkness is actually one of his own.

He patted the Duke of Rose on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, I have a plan. The Duke of Darkness is indeed no ordinary man, and there is no need to fight him."

"Why not wait and see if there are any treasures worth buying in the next auction?"

"I don't believe the Duke has such deep pockets. Calm down and sit down."

Hearing this, although the Duke of Rose was unwilling, he still glared at the Duke of Dark Night.

The inner dissatisfaction is obvious, after all, this is a good opportunity to show oneself.

During this period of time together, he realized that the young man in front of him was much stronger than himself, and his fighting power was simply on another level.

If he could behave properly, this powerful man might be able to help him improve his cultivation in the early stage of the Heavenly Man Realm, which had been stuck for a long time.

He even felt that he had a chance to break through the bottleneck that had constrained him for so long.

With the sound of a hammer falling, the auction came to an end.

Ying Heng returned with a fruitful trip.

To be honest, he did not expect to reap such a rich harvest at this auction at first.

Thanks to the tacit understanding formed between Ying Heng and the Duke of Dark Night, they tested each other in bidding again and again, and finally they were able to find a price range that both parties could accept.

At first, the Duke of Rose was a little shocked, but then he thought that perhaps the Duke of Dark Night was unwilling to continue bidding for some reason, which was also normal.

Therefore, he no longer cared about it. As for the speculation that the Duke of Dark Night was controlled by Ying Heng, he never thought much about it.

In his opinion, Ying Heng's strength was at most at the peak of the Heavenly Man Realm.

However, the Duke of Darkness possesses a legendary martial arts technique, which is a magical technique that originated from the secret research of ancient Roman emperors and has been passed down from generation to generation.

It can accumulate magical damage layer by layer, and eventually condense into a spell powerful enough to kill an enemy that is several times stronger than itself!

This kind of power makes the Duke of Darkness unrivaled on the battlefield.

As a result, the Duke of Darkness became a very important grand duke in the empire, even superior to the Duke of Rose.

His identity and status are far beyond ordinary people's imagination.

This unexpected harvest was beyond Ying Heng's expectations. The most astonishing thing was that he had spotted a mysterious herb.

This herb has the magical effect of regenerating severed limbs. No matter what level of cultivation one has reached, anyone who is not a terrestrial immortal can benefit from it. It can be called a miracle drug.
