Chapter 1210 Dragon Spirit Zhu, Young Master of the Jiao Clan
Ning Ruan has no secrets.
Therefore, she left with a clear conscience.
No Shadow Clan cultivator stopped her.
He looks exactly like an honest person.
Until you get close to the portal.
A red sword appeared out of thin air in her empty hands.
The red sword was covered with a celestial robe that had lost all traces of its magical aura.
She smiled, put on her fairy robes, and then, holding the red sword, murmured to herself, "Little Red, you've worked hard."
“You are my master, and I will give you anything you want,” Xiao Hong replied in a low voice.
Ning Ruan: "..." Eh.
When will she be able to clear this guy's mind?
Mu Yiqiu is right, Xiao Hong's mind is indeed a bit cluttered with filth.
……
There are ten passenger boats in total.
They belong to ten major races.
The ship that departed today was a passenger ship of the Illusionary Phantom Clan.
Ning Ruan wasn't picky; she didn't care which brand it came from, since she wouldn't mistreat herself anyway.
Just choose the best room.
The passenger ship has nine decks; those staying on the top deck have excellent views.
However, the passenger ship was sailing in an endless expanse, so there was hardly any view to speak of.
It was pitch black, and there was nothing to see.
But perhaps because of this, the interior of the passenger ship is quite rich.
There are more than just places to cook.
It includes drinking, entertainment, and even auctions.
Aside from cultivating, Ning Ruan spent her time conveying children's storybooks from Blue Star to Xiao Hong.
Kids should learn things that are suitable for children.
Otherwise, it will always feel like something is broken.
"Guest, there will be an auction in half an hour, and the spiritual fruit you requested is available."
Three days after the passenger boat had set sail, a servant came to inform them.
"I see."
Ning Ruan still decided to go and take a look.
Traveling can be boring, so you always need to find something interesting to pass the time.
The auction on the passenger ship was not much different from other auctions she had attended.
The only difference is that they are selling living monks here again.
Of course, this time it's not a person.
"Tonight's auction features a cultivator from the Hundred Flowers Clan. This is a pear blossom, exceptionally elegant and with a captivating fragrance. As you all know, cultivators from the Hundred Flowers Clan can transform into various races, and their transformed appearances are all exquisite. Combined with their own floral beauty and fragrance, they are simply irresistible."
As the auctioneer introduced the items, a cage was brought onto the stage.
Just like when Ning Ruan first went to the Eternal Domain.
However, the two people captured at the time were from the sea tribe.
And now, she is facing the Hundred Flowers Clan, which she has never seen before.
There are differences between the two; capturing sea creatures still requires doing it in secret.
As for the Hundred Flowers Clan... they don't need to sneak in.
This is a race with extremely low attack power.
Apart from the Phoenix Clan, who could still maintain some semblance of order, their lives and deaths seemed to be of little concern to anyone else.
"The starting price is one thousand high-grade spirit stones. If any of you are interested, please place your bids."
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, bidding erupted from below.
Ningsoft did not make a direct bid.
Instead, he waited until there were only one or two bids left before announcing, "Two thousand top-grade spirit stones."
"..."
"..."
The two cultivators who were originally going to bid stopped shouting.
"Two thousand top-grade spirit stones per time."
"Two thousand top-grade spirit stones twice."
"Two thousand top-grade spirit stones..."
Before the third statement could be finished, another voice came: "Two thousand five hundred top-grade spirit stones."
"!!!"
As soon as the bidding started, a chorus of sighs arose from below.
Two thousand top-grade spirit stones is already a lot.
It far exceeds the price of a cultivator from the Hundred Flowers Clan.
In this world where the strong are respected, not every cultivator is greedy for pleasure.
For cultivators who crave pleasure, they also have many choices.
It's clearly not worth wasting so many spirit stones for a cultivator from the Hundred Flowers Clan.
But surprisingly, someone added another 500 top-grade spirit stones to the base of 2,000!
This is a top-grade spirit stone!
Ning Ruan also looked curiously in the direction of the bidding.
The auctions on the passenger ship were not very well done, and the service was not very attentive.
You still need to set your own price.
Fortunately, there is a barrier that can obscure people's voices.
Although most cultivators can change their voices themselves, this function is rather useless.
Thanks to this feature, even Ningruan cannot determine the gender of the person bidding.
"Four thousand top-grade spirit stones."
Ningsoft made its second bid.
The auctioneer was stunned, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. His face was full of excitement. "Four thousand top-grade spirit stones once!"
"Four……"
"Five thousand top-grade spirit stones!" It was the same room where the bid had been placed before.
Ning Ruan became interested, "Six thousand top-grade spirit stones."
This time, before the auctioneer could repeat himself, a bid came directly from the opposite room: "Eight thousand top-grade spirit stones."
Ning Ruan was not to be outdone, offering "ten thousand top-grade spirit stones".
"Twelve thousand top-grade spirit stones," the other side continued to bid.
But this time, it was clearly not as swift and decisive as before.
Ning Ruan: "Fifteen thousand top-grade spirit stones."
wow——
The entire auction hall was completely silent.
Only the auctioneer's slightly trembling voice remained as he made his bid: "One, fifteen thousand top-grade spirit stones, once..."
That's fifteen thousand top-grade spirit stones!
He doesn't even want to go through the whole process now; he just wants to close the deal immediately!
However, it's harder than a dream to find an ordinary member of the Hundred Flowers Clan selling for this price!
The room across the hall seemed to fall into a long silence.
The auctioneer waited a moment, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. Seeing that the other party still didn't bid, he raised his voice again: "Fifteen thousand top-grade spirit stones, twice!"
Still no one answered.
"Fifteen thousand top-grade spirit stones..."
His words were interrupted again before he could finish.
"Wait a moment."
The auctioneer's gavel fell abruptly.
All the cultivators below turned their gazes toward the direction from which the voice had come.
It was the VIP room that had been the subject of constant bidding.
The door suddenly opened.
A burly man walked out slowly, and with each step he took, the entire corridor seemed to tremble slightly.
He was two meters tall, with bulging muscles all over his body, and looked no different from a human.
The only difference was that he had a pair of tiny horns on his forehead.
"The Jiaolong Clan!"
"It's actually the Jiaolong clan. No wonder they can offer such a high price. They must be one of the top ten races as well."
"That must be it."
Only cultivators from the ten major races could compete with each other to this extent.
This is no longer a fair auction.
It was as if they had a personal grudge.
...Well, even if there was no enmity before, it's probably been formed now.
Suddenly, countless voice transmissions appeared below.
They even dared to whisper among themselves when no one was around.
But now that we're in front of them, we can only communicate telepathically.
The burly man stood at the edge of the corridor, surveying the entire area from his elevated position, before finally fixing his gaze on the direction of Ning Ruan's VIP room.
"I am Long Li, a guard under Young Master Zhu of the Jiao Clan." His voice was deep and resonant, carrying an undeniable aura of authority. "The Hundred Flowers Clan cultivator on the stage was originally my young master's possession."
"His escape was unexpected, and his capture and auction were entirely accidental."
"But this matter is all due to his unauthorized escape, and he has only himself to blame. My young master will not hold it against him. However, the person... my young master must take him back. I beg you, fellow Daoist, to be lenient and give the person to my young master. You will be very grateful."
That's very polite of you.
But his tone and expression clearly said—I'm going to take this person; if you know what's good for you, don't try to bid anymore.
