Chapter 46: Yellow Creek Auction
...…
Inside the VIP booth that had the number one on the outside of its exterior, there was a boy with long black hair and a girl with even longer hair sitting on top of his lap.
Both of them possessed extraordinarily exquisite features. Which was mostly attributed to all the repeated cultivation breakthroughs and the washing of impurities.
Because of these actions, Azmodeus's previously average appearance had reached a level where he would be considered the golden boy of any modern-day television show!
Nevertheless, in this boy's lap was a pretty girl who wore a giddy look on her face as she cupped her cheeks while creepily laughing.
"Don't you think this makes us look like a married couple, Az, Az~?" Yang Hua asked, her enamored expression turned upwards, looking at his chin.
"...I wish you'd get off me and go to your own seat over there-"
"I knew you loved me, Azmo! Don't worry, we can get married as soon as Daddy comes back from his vacation!" Yang Hua interjected, pink hearts floating around inside those dazzling greens of hers.
Azmodeus ignored the silly girl on his lap as he laid his chin on the top of her head before muttering, "Stop thinking nonsense and focus on the auction."
"Mhmkay~!" She replied with a light head nod before snuggling even closer to him, her eyes glued to the wide podium below.
Azmodeus gave up on persuading the girl to move over as he focused on the soon-to-start auction as well.
...
A few minutes passed and all of the seats in the auction house were filled to the brim.
After reaching this point, the lady who was hosting the auction in a crop top missing most of its top started to speak up:
"Welcome to the annual Yellowcreek Auction, ladies and gentlemen! I am pleased to inform you all that we have quite an exotic assortment of items this time around! You are sure to come out here with not an ounce of disappointment!"
HAAH!
The crowd had extremely positive reactions to the pretty hostess, as who didn't like a pretty lady offering them things to bid over??
However, all of the ladies, belonging to the minority of the guest population, had peeved-off looks on their faces. Watching all their husbands and boyfriends go crazy over that floozy with a lack of fabric on her person was enough to put them all in bad moods.
Of course, this included a certain girl in the number one VIP booth. Who, after looking down at her inferior breasts, turned her pouty expression up toward Azmodeus, about to knock the meany out of him!
But the moment Yang Hua saw him, she paused in her tracks. After all, he was looking in the complete opposite direction of the podium stage.
He was thinking ahead and predicted something like this would happen, so he simply watched every minute movement that she made. When the moment finally came, he timed his head turn to an almost perfectionist's degree.
*Humph!* Yang Hua softly harrumphed before watching the first item of the day come through a set of red curtains to the side.
Azmodeus realized that his plan worked. Thereafter, he laid his chin back on her head, calming her down even further before awaiting the presentation of the first item.
-
"The first thing we have to show all of you prestigious guests today is something from the Royal Capital of the Fire Nation! Something called a Spiritual Stone!"
The lady hostess's voice resounded as she bent over, getting all the angles right before extending her hands out. She beckoned for the two pretty ladies in similar attire to bring out a glowing blue stone on a metallic platter.
"Although this Spiritual Stone is of the lowest rank, it's still worth quite a substantial amount, so why don't we start the bidding at 5,000 Silver Taels!"
"....."
The crowd went silent for a second before, all at once, they erupted with various bids. They aimed to acquire the item that would improve their cultivation by leaps and bounds!
"6,000 Silver Taels! Give me some face as the young master of the Green Burrow Guild!"
"6,500 Silver Taels! Screw your face and your green sh*t guild!"
"7,500 Silver Taels! You dare to say those words to this young master!? Are You Courting Death!?"
"9,000 Silver Taels! I couldn't give two fu*ks about your death threats!! If you have half the money that your mouth has sh*t to say, then I'm sure you can outbid me!"
"1 Gold Tael! F*ck you, a*shole! Just wait until I find out who you are, and then I'll bury you a six-foot-deep grave ahead of time!"
"2 Gold Taels! Sure, sure, big boy! If you have the balls, then come down to my Rising Dragons Sect and call for the name Sheng Long! I'll come out and beat your a*s any time of the day!"
"S-Someone from the Rank 2 Rising Dragons Sect…"
The original bidder's face turned ashen as he realized that he might've made a grave mistake.
"I-I apologize for my earlier words, esteemed young master! This one is truly unable to see Mt.Tai!"
He got on the ground inside his VIP booth and bowed in the direction of VIP booth number two.
"Haha! Don't worry about it, for this young master is quite magnanimous when it comes to those lower than myself. I will let you off the hook just this one time!"
The haughty voice of the bidder from VIP Booth 2 echoed out as the bid continued.
Not many were willing to compete with someone from the Rising Dragons Sect, but towards the end of the biddings, a young boy's voice sounded out from VIP Booth 1:
"10 Gold Taels."
"!!!" "!!!" "!!!"
Everyone in the auction house went utterly silent upon hearing such an absurd number get announced from VIP booth number one.
That was 10 Gold Taels, you know!
It could be exchanged for 100,000 Silver Taels or for tens of millions of Copper Taels!
Such an extravagant sum of money was enough for the average mortal household to live comfortably for many generations. Yet the bidder from VIP booth 1 shot off such a number like it was no big deal…
