My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 302

"Heh, since no one else wants it, this Vajra Body Refining Technique is all mine!" Cao Xingyun smiled. The Cao Family's reputation is quite effective in a small place like this.

"As expected of the Cao Family. They're so lavish!"

"Yeah, seven hundred million, just like that!"

The auctioneer was about to strike the gavel when Yang Qi raised his paddle. "Seven hundred and ten million!"

In that instant, all eyes focused on Yang Qi. Many people had heard of him, but since they had never seen him in person, they didn't recognize him. Everyone thought the young man was insane. How dare he bid against someone from Thunder City's Cao Family? Even if he managed to buy it, could he actually leave with it? What's more, he was only increasing the bid by the minimum increment. He was clearly doing it on purpose.

Cao Xingyun and his group looked over. Upon seeing Yang Qi, he flashed him the middle finger.

"You dare provoke this Young Master? I think you're tired of living! Eight hundred million!" Cao Xingyun raised the bid by one hundred million.

"Eight hundred and ten million!" Yang Qi remained perfectly composed.

"You son of a bitch!" Cao Xingyun was furious. This is completely intentional. He's deliberately provoking me.

Everyone around was stunned. This young man was far too bold. He actually dared to provoke the Third Young Master of the Cao Family. He wouldn't even know how he died.

Lei Yingying, however, wasn't worried at all. With Yang Qi's abilities, what was a mere Cao Family? But in the eyes of most people, Yang Qi was simply playing with fire.

"You're asking for death, kid!" Cao Xingyun roared.

"Please maintain order in the auction hall," Yang Qi said nonchalantly. "If you don't have the money, don't bid."

"Bullshit! You think this Young Master doesn't have money? I bid nine hundred million!"

They had known about this Secret Book beforehand and came specifically to bid on it. They hadn't touched any of the previous items, saving all their funds for this. Their budget's limit was one billion. The price had already reached nine hundred million, and Cao Xingyun's face had turned ashen. He swore to himself that after the auction, he would definitely kill this guy. And while he was at it, he'd sleep with his sister.

Yang Qi still bid calmly, "Nine hundred and ten million!" He didn't have much money, so he had to be frugal with his bids.

Cao Xingyun's expression was utterly grim. This kid is absolutely doing this on purpose!

He gritted his teeth and called out his final offer. "One billion!" Any higher and he would have to give up.

All eyes focused on Yang Qi again. He suddenly smiled and said, "I withdraw my bid."

One billion for the Vajra Body Refining Technique is a fair price. Any more wouldn't be worth it. After all, it can only be used during the Great Grandmaster stage. Besides, I'm a Cultivator. Body refinement is merely supplementary for me; it's not an absolute necessity.

PFFT!

Cao Xingyun nearly coughed up blood. An item he could have won for seven hundred million ended up costing him an extra three hundred million. Who wouldn't be stunned? Who wouldn't be furious?

"Congratulations, Third Young Master Cao," Yang Qi smiled.

In Cao Xingyun's eyes, this was pure mockery. Scorn. A rage he could not swallow.

"You just wait!" Cao Xingyun glared at Yang Qi, a terrifying killing intent brewing in his heart.

Yang Qi smiled and turned to Lei Yingying. "Could you please take Yuman home for me? I have something to take care of."

Lei Yingying wanted to ask what it was, but she held her tongue. If Yang Qi said he had something to do, it was bound to be important. Asking would be pointless.

「After the auction ended.」

Lei Yingying left Kang River Manor with Zhao Yuman, and Yang Qi departed as well. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

After leaving Kang River Manor, he wandered the streets for a while before eventually reaching a dense forest.

Suddenly, he stopped, still chewing a piece of gum. The smile vanished from his face, replaced by an icy, boundless killing intent.

"You won the auction, but you still want to kill me? You can't possibly think I'll just stand here and let it happen, do you?" Yang Qi said coldly. "Come on out, all of you. This grove will be your burial ground today."

RUSTLE! RUSTLE!

Dozens of people suddenly appeared in the woods. All of them were experts, and they surrounded Yang Qi.

Yang Qi glanced indifferently at Cao Xingyun. "Make your move."

In that instant, a terrifying aura permeated the entire grove. Cao Xingyun felt as if he were being enveloped by an invisible force. Whose Inner Strength can be released over such a large area? That's impossible! It must be an illusion! A mere illusion! There's no way a Martial Artist this powerful exists in a small place like Kang City!

"Kid, today I'll teach you that some people are not to be trifled with! Go!" Cao Xingyun waved his hand, and a burly man beside him lunged at Yang Qi, moving like an arrow released from its bowstring.

When he was three meters from Yang Qi, he suddenly leaped into the air, throwing a punch at Yang Qi's temple. He had both speed and power, and his explosive force was astonishing. This punch packed enough force to kill a bull. This was, without a doubt, a Great Grandmaster. Cao Xingyun hadn't underestimated his opponent; he had sent out a Second Rank Great Grandmaster.

The whistling wind sounded like applause. If this punch were to land on an ordinary person, it would surely be fatal. Their body probably wouldn't even be left in one piece.

Unfortunately for him, he was facing Yang Qi.

Yang Qi watched the fist approach, still casually chewing his gum. He merely smirked in disdain as a short sword—the Alchemy Blade—suddenly materialized in his hand.

SHICK!

The short sword pierced up through the burly man's chin. His life was extinguished in an instant, and his body went limp.

Yang Qi casually pulled out the short sword, and the corpse thudded to the ground. He was still chewing his gum, a faint smile on his lips, as if he had just done something utterly trivial.

How is this possible?! Fear filled the eyes of Cao Xingyun and his men. He's too strong... A Second Rank Great Grandmaster was killed in an instant! So clean, so direct. There was no wasted motion at all. It was as effortless as an expert butcher carving an ox.

The sword in his hand vanished. Yang Qi walked slowly toward Cao Xingyun, who retreated several steps as his dozens of bodyguards shielded him. Fear was evident in all their eyes.

"Kid, do you have any idea what happens to those who kill a member of the Cao Family? Your relatives! Your friends! Not one of them will escape! All of you will die! The Cao Family is not an existence that a lone wolf like you can afford to provoke!"

"Is that so? Then I think I'll find out today," Yang Qi laughed. "If you had just taken your item and left, no one would have bothered you. But you insisted on provoking me. Weren't you just asking to die?"

"Get him! Everyone, get him! Kill him! Kill him now!" Cao Xingyun, terrified, screamed.

A group of people rushed toward Yang Qi.

Yang Qi shook his head, raised his hand, and a streak of cold light flew out.

SHICK! SHICK! SHICK! SHICK!

Moving with incredible speed, the streak of cold light pierced through each person's throat. All the guards collapsed to the ground, dead.

It wasn't that he was ruthless; he simply cherished his own life. If I let these people go, I would face terrifying assassination attempts. Today, I have no choice but to kill them all to leave no witnesses.
