The situation had now reversed for the two of them.
Xin Ci's soul was severely damaged, forcing him into hibernation within the consciousness space.
"Xin Ci, you fool, there was no need to go to such lengths to repair my soul," Mu Qingqing said with a mix of helplessness and guilt. Xin Ci's sacrifice deeply touched her.
"Little girl, how is Xin Ci?" Elder Han asked.
"He's fine for now, but his soul is severely damaged. It will take several years of recuperation for him to recover."
Upon hearing this, Elder Han couldn't help but frown. "It's good that Xin Ci is fine for now, but little girl, Xin Ci is currently in a deep slumber. What do you plan to do?"
"Until I find a sacred spiritual medicine to repair his soul, Xin Ci will have to rest in this consciousness space. That space is suitable for soul recuperation, and Xin Ci will be safe."
Elder Han could only nod in agreement.
Mu Qingqing looked at the palm of the body, her eyes gleaming, and murmured to herself, "Xin Ci, wait for me! I will find the treasure to mend your soul very soon."
Mu Qingqing left the crystal space and entered the room.
Hearing the commotion outside the door, Mu Qingqing furrowed her brows slightly, opened the door, and walked out.
She saw Zhou Teng, leading a group of disciples from the Tianxing Pavilion, aggressively blocking the entrance to private room number 56.
"Tch, as expected of a nobody. I really don't know where you get the nerve to oppose this young master?"
Seeing a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy in a green robe emerge from the private room, Zhou Teng immediately showed a look of disdain.
Xuan Kong approached Mu Qingqing and whispered, "Brother Xin Ci, the people from Tianxing Pavilion are not easy to deal with."
"Especially Zhou Teng. He is a genius figure from Tianxing Pavilion participating in this year's Eastern Continent Grand Competition. He's accompanied by two Elder King realm cultivators, and about a dozen Heaven realm disciples. Their strength is extraordinary."
"Shall we seek help from the Sanyang Auction House?"
Mu Qingqing shook her head and refused, "I will handle this matter myself."
The surrounding Tianxing Pavilion disciples, seeing Mu Qingqing taking the initiative to walk towards their young pavilion master, burst into laughter.
"Oh, you brat, you dare to challenge our Young Master Teng? You must be tired of living!"
"Yeah, who do you think you are?"
"What are you? Dare to meddle in Young Master Teng's business, you don't want to live anymore, do you?"
A group of Tianxing Pavilion disciples clamored.
Zhou Teng looked at Mu Qingqing and was momentarily stunned by her star-like beautiful eyes.
Then, a devilish smile appeared on his lips. "What beautiful eyes. Boy, your eyes belong to this young master now."
Upon hearing this, the onlookers felt a chill in their hearts.
Did the young pavilion master of Tianxing Pavilion intend to gouge out the boy's eyes?
But it had to be said, the boy's eyes were indeed exceptionally beautiful.
Especially the unique, beautiful star patterns within his pupils, they were simply a work of art!
Xuan Kong felt a hint of surprise. He hadn't seen Xin Ci with such beautiful eyes before.
Zhou Teng was about to make a move.
Just then, a powerful aura pressed down, enveloping everyone and making it difficult to breathe.
Everyone turned to look, only to see Zhao Qing, the person in charge of the Sanyang Auction House.
"Everyone, fighting is not allowed in the Sanyang Auction House. Even if you are the young pavilion master of Tianxing Pavilion, Young Master Teng, you cannot break the rules!" Zhao Qing's cold voice echoed.
Hearing his words, everyone's hearts tightened, and they finally remembered the rules of the Sanyang Auction House.
This负责人 of the Sanyang Auction House was no weakling; he was a three-star Heavenly Venerate expert.
His words carried significant weight, and even the young pavilion master of Tianxing Pavilion could not easily violate the rules.
Zhou Teng, despite his arrogance, did not disregard everyone.
He was well aware that Zhao Qing was a Heavenly Venerate expert, someone he could not afford to offend.
"If you have the guts, then hide in the Sanyang Auction House forever and never leave!"
With that, Zhou Teng led his men and left the Sanyang Auction House.
As Zhou Teng departed, the crowd finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, Senior Zhao Qing was here, otherwise this young man would have been in trouble."
"Yeah, yeah, otherwise this young man would definitely have his eyes gouged out by Zhou Teng."
"Alas, but he has offended Tianxing Pavilion. He probably can't escape misfortune."
...
The crowd chattered, filled with pity and sympathy for Mu Qingqing.
However, Mu Qingqing smiled calmly and walked out of the Sanyang Auction House without any hesitation, showing no fear of Zhou Teng's threat.
"No way, is this kid crazy?"
"He's really going to have his eyes gouged out this time!"

Seeing Mu Qingqing walk out of the Sanyang Auction House with such confidence, Zhou Teng and his group were also taken aback.
They had not expected this boy to be so dismissive of them.
Did he truly not fear death?
"Boy, I overestimated you. Turns out you're just a fool!" Zhou Teng sneered.
"Outside the Sanyang Auction House, that fellow Zhao Qing can't protect you. Old Gui, Old Li, take this kid down!"
Zhou Teng said sinisterly, then gave a signal to the two King realm elders beside him from Tianxing Pavilion.
The two King realm powerhouses nodded in understanding and then charged towards Mu Qingqing from left and right, their speed astonishing.
Dark blue light flickered on their palms, and a terrifying energy fluctuation spread out.
"What a pity. This young man is only Heaven realm. He can't possibly withstand the full force of two King realm powerhouses."
"Pathetic!"
Everyone shook their heads with regret, lamenting Mu Qingqing's tragic fate.
"Bang! Bang!"
The sounds of heavy objects hitting the ground echoed.
Then, everyone saw the two King realm powerhouses lying on the ground.
Both of their arms were twisted and deformed, and Mu Qingqing had already walked slowly in front of them.
"How is this possible?"
Zhou Teng's eyes widened in horror as he looked at the two Tianxing Pavilion elders groaning in pain on the ground.
When were they defeated? What did this boy do?!
It wasn't just Zhou Teng who was shocked; everyone present was stunned.
They all looked at Mu Qingqing with disbelief, unsure how he had accomplished this.
Zhou Teng and his group looked at Mu Qingqing with fear and apprehension.
They had never imagined that such a young boy would possess such formidable strength, capable of defeating two three-star King realm elders from Tianxing Pavilion in a single exchange.
As Mu Qingqing gradually approached him, Zhou Teng couldn't help but swallow nervously, his body instinctively retreating.
"You're in my way. Move aside!"
Mu Qingqing's tone was calm, yet it contained an immense dominance.
Zhou Teng was stunned. Under Mu Qingqing's aura, he involuntarily fell to the ground.
Mu Qingqing's cold eyes swept over Zhou Teng, and he walked past him towards the front.
In Zhou Teng's eyes, Mu Qingqing's gaze felt like he was looking at a weak ant.
For a moment, Zhou Teng felt immense humiliation.
