Rest in a Demon's Embrace [BL]

Chapter 181 - “Are Pill Formulas Considered Treasures?”



Needles were able to be controlled by spiritual energy, and they could become great hidden weapons. Not to mention, they could also be used during healing, and Luo Xiao had long since had a certain wish to learn how to heal others.

After going through a childhood where he could not experience the world outside, he wished to help others regain their freedom. However, he was currently focusing on alchemy, and while pills could help with many things, they were not omnipotent. ​​

So, his wish was that when he managed to gain a thorough understanding of the basics of alchemy, then he would try to gain a brief understanding of the physician's profession.

Luo Xiao was very pleased to hear Jiang Yao's mention of the needles, and he happily turned around and planted a loud and happy kiss on the demon's cheek, before he hurriedly looked down on the stage once more.

The Dark Ice Ore was able to fetch a great price, as not only armament masters wanted it. Everyone was eager to get the ore to create weapons for themselves, but in the end, more important treasures would appear later, and thus they dared not use all their wealth to grab this one.

The next treasure did not fetch as high of a price, but considering the usage, it was already more than initially assumed.

Luo Xiao was smiling from ear to ear, and his eyes glistened. He had long since lost track of the amount of wealth he had accumulated throughout the auction, but even now, almost halfway through the auction, no one had offered any treasures in addition to spirit crystals.

Although Luo Xiao was somewhat disappointed, he was not going to dwell too much on this problem. It's true that it would be much simpler for him to directly get treasures, and that the spirit crystals could be exchanged for good items as well, so he was not too disappointed.

The items so far had all been more than one of the same item, but as the auction progressed, the rarer treasures started to come out, and all of them were one of a kind.

Alongside this change, the prices also exploded, and while some began to offer treasures, yet all of them were of low quality and could not rival the excess amount of spirit crystals offered by others.

Seeing this change, Luo Xiao got interested, and his gaze focused on what was happening in front of him. While he had been very worried at first due to the unknown assassin hiding somewhere around, he soon calmed down.

Although he was not comfortable, he understood that Jiang Yao would not be this calm if he did not have some sort of method to deal with this unexpected visitor, so he decided to not care about it anymore.

Since this unwanted guest had decided to peek on them, then Luo Xiao was going to teach him what it meant to be tortured by a couple showing affection.

He still remembered when he first met Jiang Yao, he had been acting as a fake lover, and that Ling Mo had been so furious that he could hardly restrain his wish to beat him up.

Although the assassin hiding in the shadows was rather unlikely to feel anything towards Jiang Yao, it was never fun to look at others showing affection while they were stuck doing annoying tasks.

Jiang Yao's eyes were full of pampering as he looked at the younger man who was snuggling in his arms. Although Luo Xiao was a man, he was not as bulky or tall as Jiang Yao, so it was actually comfortable to rest in his arms and lean against his back.

His head was able to rest against his shoulder and neck, and the breath was sprayed upon the skin, causing Jiang Yao's pampering gaze to contain a bit of helplessness.

Jiang Yao did not have any lofty thoughts of only loving Luo Xiao's soul. He loved his soul, but he also lusted after his body. Even so, he understood that while Luo Xiao was old enough to be considered an adult in this world, he was still young.

Due to the environment he had grown up in, and the weakness he had suffered from a young age, he needed more time to develop and understand the consequences of being in love.

As long as he did not leave, Jiang Yao did not mind having to wait for him to be ready.

But having the love of his life sitting restlessly in his arms and moving from time to time, caused unspeakable heat to rise in his heart as he felt his body reacting.

Luo Xiao was not paying attention to the helpless Jiang Yao; instead, he was focusing solely on the auction below, as he found that the treasures offered were now many times better than those used before.

Luo Xiao did not have anything special to look for when he requested treasures, but when he heard what had been offered, his eyes glistened with excitement.

"Hey, do pill formulas count as treasures?"

Luo Xiao looked at Jiang Yao with sparkling eyes as he pointed towards the stage below.

One of the bidding parties had offered a pill formula of a rare pill, and Luo Xiao was instantly interested. Although this formula did not contain any spiritual energy, the potential it contained was much more than that of an ordinary treasure.

Looking at the excited young man in front of him, Jiang Yao did not rush to answer. He wrapped his arms tightly around his waist and pulled him closer to his chest. A soft kiss landed on his forehead before he rested Luo Xiao's head against his neck.

"Naturally. Although it might not be a protective or offensive artifact, the formula is a great treasure, and is likely to win this round."
