Divine Harem: My Sect of Heavenly Beauties

Chapter 30: The Auction (3)

Shen Yu raised an eyebrow and followed Ying Yue's gaze to look at the VIP room opposite to them. The Rune Formation did nothing to hinder his eyes as he easily looked past the special glass and sensed the whole VIP room.

In that room, a young man with yellow blonde hairs was sitting on a sofa like theirs and beside him on another sofa sat a old man with grey hairs growing only from the sides.

One side of his lips tugged upwards seeing that as he played with fingers. Now that he knew Bai Chen was sitting and attending this auction, he had an idea.

Shen Yu was a petty person and would exact revenge if it meant waiting for years. That's how he had killed his master when he was a slave. He waited a whole year, abiding to his orders and everything, he only striked when he was sure that he would succeed.

Although Bai Chen didn't do anything extreme to Shen Yu, he had intended to harm Ying Yue and that was enough reason for Shen Yu to teach him a lesson. He wouldn't kill him but atleast annoying him was needed.

"I heard that a rare ore would be auctioned today so it's not a surprise that he's here. The Seven Stars Sect focuses more on weapon forging and they're famous for that. A rare ore would certainly catch their attention."

Lan Ming explained, not really surprised by Bai Chen's presence.

Shen Yu nodded and looked at the stage where Zhou Zun was bragging about third item which was a small rock containing some remnant lightning from a powerful Spiritual Creature.

Neither Shen Yu not Lan Ming was interested in these items so they kept silent and only watched the auction. Other VIPs occasionally bought some item while rarely fighting over an item.

Although the items were good, they weren't worth that much to the VIPs. They were mostly sold among the common populace sitting on the ground floor.

However, soon a item came which caught many VIPs attention. Zhou Zun smiled and took off the cloth, knowing fully well what item was inside. He was even looking forward for the bidding.

Gasps could be heard from the whole auction floor as the item came in view. Many didn't recognise it but most did and that's why they were surprised.

"Ahem! As many of you already know, this is the Crimson Amber Totem Bird's Spirit core, you can even see the silhouette of it in the Spirit core. And it's not even of small rank but from the Rank-3 Crimson Amber Totem Bird which is equivalent to that of Foundation Realm. There are many uses of such Spirit Core but the best one is to integrate it into a weapon. So, how many of you want to have a Rank 3 weapon, please bid. The starting bid is 20 Golds."

Zhou Zun explained, pointing at the crimson colored sphere resting on the wooden tray. It was emitting a terrifying heat wave and even a silhouette of a bird could be seen inside it, it had four wings which seemed to be set ablaze.

Instantly, commotion broke out among the crowd and before they could bid, a voice of a middle-aged man sounded from one of the VIP room.

"100 Gold."

"The hell!! Is he crazy? 100 Gold on first bid?"

"Just because you're poor doesn't mean others are poor, man."

"Crazy! This Auction is crazy! Fuck! I also want that Spirit Core, unfortunately I'm broke as fuck!"

"Who told you to visit that prostitute everyday?"

"SHUT UP!!"

The crowd instantly went wild. They had expected a high price for the Spirit Core but to start with such high amount was certainly crazy for them. But for the VIPs, that amount meant nothing in front of the Rank 3 Spirit Core.

"110 Gold!"

"120 Gold!"

With each bid, the price of Spirit Core continued to rise. The VIPs were hellbent on taking the Spirit Core for two reasons. First obviously because it was because of its Rank and second because of the Spiritual Creature it belonged to.

Crimson Amber Totem Bird was a famous Spiritual Creature which upon maturing usually reached Core Formation Realm. And it also possessed a powerful Fire Affinity. The weapon forged from the This bird's Spirit Core would have a high chance to inherit its Fire Affinity.

Shen Yu munched on some fruits, looked at the spirit core and said.

"This is actually a good catch. You can even forge Flame Wings from this Spirit Core which would allow people of any Realm able to fly."

Lan Ming was surprised and asked.

"We can do that?"

"Pretty sure, yes. One just needs to contain that Soul Remnant of Crimson Amber Totem Bird and they'll be able to make the wings. Unfortunately, it's tough and not just anyone can do this."

Shen Yu explained and then looked at Ying Yue, asking.

"Do you want some flaming wings before you reach Core Formation Realm? It'll look good on you."

At first Ying Yue was going to refuse since she didn't really care about flying, after all, flying in the open would only make it easier to be spotted and she was an Assassin who lived in shadows. She didn't need those wings, however, when she heard she would look good, she instantly came upon the decision that she wanted the wings so she nodded in excitement.

'I will look good in those wings, hehe. Master will definitely like it.'

"Noice! Consider the wings yours. I'll personally make them for you from that Spirit Core."

Shen Yu nodded in satisfaction and said. Lan Ming caught on the conversation and asked.

"Master Shen, can I watch you making those wings?"

"Sure, I'll notify you when I perform the Weapon Forging."

Shen Yu shrugged. He was interested in weapon forging and all the side professions so he wasn't going to use his powers to just materialize the item. He would personally make them so he didn't have problem in Lan Ming watching the process.

Then he looked in front and bid his first bid since the start of the auction.

"300 Gold!"
