Chapter 1213 Why was she treated specially?
"He shouldn't die, right?" Ning Ruan said.
Xiao Hong chimed in, "They won't die, will they?"
"Thank you, Master..." Li Yuan said with difficulty.
My body was still tense.
Even though his injuries had healed, he still felt lost and fearful about the future with his new owner.
No matter what, the other party will not let him go.
She simply hoped that she could be different from Long Lingzhu, even if it meant torturing him, at least... at least spare his life.
Ning Ruan was about to speak.
Then they heard another update on the auction progress outside.
What is being presented now is the spiritual fruit she has been longing for.
Hmm... I've never seen it before.
We need to take a picture of this.
So as soon as the auctioneer made his bid, she said directly, "Fifty top-grade spirit stones."
Swah——
Countless eyes were drawn to the direction of Ningruan VIP room.
It's this guy again... who's rich, stubborn, and not very lucky.
The consequence of bidding against the other party is simply to offend another person who dares to oppose the Dragon Spirit Lord.
Although he may soon fall into Long Lingzhu's hands.
But what if?
So after Ning Ruan made his bid, the entire auction house eerily stopped bidding.
Under the auctioneer's slightly disappointed gaze, she successfully won the spiritual fruit.
The spirit fruit was in hand.
Ning Ruan then got to eat it.
As she ate, she spoke to the boy who was still standing awkwardly beside her, "Please sit down."
"..." Li Yuan had no idea what the other person meant.
He dared not sit down.
But after only a moment's hesitation, the red sword pointed at him again, and a childish voice threatened him: "Are you testing my patience by not sitting down?"
Li Yuan: "..."
He could only sit down.
If he didn't sit down, who knew if this strange sword would just stab a hole in him?
Ning Ruan couldn't help but rub her forehead, wondering if Xiao Hong had listened to her children's book.
It seems that the effect is minimal.
Take a deep breath.
She turned her gaze to Li Yuan, swallowed the spiritual fruit in her mouth, and asked directly, "Who was that guy just now?"
"Who?" Li Yuan was a little confused.
Ning Ruan reminded him, "You're the one who needs to buy your stuff."
"???" Li Yuan was stunned. "You...don't know her?"
Ning Ruan casually asked, "Should I know her?"
"..." Well, there really isn't a question of whether or not one should do it.
There aren't many people who don't know Long Lingzhu, are there?
Li Yuan dared not say that, but answered earnestly in a trembling voice: "Long Lingzhu... one of the young masters of the Jiao clan, and also the one destined by Heaven."
"Besides this?" It's just fate, it shouldn't be enough to cause such a big reaction in the entire auction house.
After all, this isn't a passenger ship belonging to the Jiaolong clan.
Li Yuan's body trembled almost imperceptibly, and her voice lowered even further, filled with deep fear: "She...she's different."
"...Her birth mother had just successfully transcended her tribulation and ascended to immortality ten years ago."
He paused, his voice trembling even more violently: "That was... a recently ascended immortal."
"Oh," Ning Ruan responded, taking another bite of the spiritual fruit, her expression unchanged.
Seeing her reaction, Li Yuan felt even more uncertain.
Does this new owner truly not know what this means, or... simply not care at all?
Ning Ruan swallowed the fruit, her gaze sweeping over the black Immortal Locking Chain in the jade dish in the corner, and she recalled the arrogant figure and the words "You belong to me" from the auction earlier.
She blinked, looked at Li Yuan, and asked with a hint of pure curiosity:
"Her mother ascended to heaven, so what?"
Li Yuan was taken aback by the question.
So what? Is that even a question?
A direct descendant of a living immortal, who ascended to heaven in such a short time, who knows if they will be able to make contact?
With the backing and protection of a celestial being, she has the power to act recklessly.
"...Therefore, others dare not easily provoke her. Although that immortal has ascended to the upper realm, her remaining prestige is still there. Moreover, the immortal connections, relationships, and even the protective items that may have been bestowed upon her when she ascended are all extraordinary. She also has a younger sister who is extremely talented and beautiful...and is now ranked thirty-second on the Heavenly Beauty Ranking."
"Are the direct descendants of other ascended immortals treated this way?" Ning Ruan suddenly asked.
Li Yuan was stunned.
He thought about it carefully for a moment, and finally shook his head hesitantly: "It's not that... There are actually some descendants of the bloodline left behind by the ascended immortals. Most of them are respected and protected to a certain extent, but there are not many like her... who act recklessly and no one dares to interfere."
"All ten races will give her face?" Ning Ruan raised her eyes curiously.
Li Yuan gave a soft "hmm".
"That's strange. Why don't other descendants of immortals receive such special treatment, but she does?"
Li Yuan: "..." How would he know that?
All I knew was that she was the daughter of a fairy.
This kind of status is already quite impressive.
Even setting aside this identity, the other party is still a member of the Jiaolong clan.
The teachers and their relatives are all powerful members of the Jiaolong clan.
For someone like him, killing a cultivator from the Hundred Flowers Clan would be far too easy.
"Does her very talented younger sister receive the same treatment as her?" Ning Ruan asked again.
I do know about Li Yuan.
He had even met Long Lingzhu's younger sister... a woman who looked completely different from Long Lingzhu.
If she hadn't spoken up, he might have been tortured to death long ago.
But because she spoke up, Long Lingzhu tormented him even more severely.
“…Young Master Long Lingbi, although she and Long Lingzhu are twin sisters,… their personalities are worlds apart.” Li Yuan carefully chose her words. “Young Master Long Lingbi is devoted to the Dao and spends most of her time in seclusion cultivating. She rarely goes out. I have heard that she has a high reputation within the Jiao Clan and is regarded as a pillar of the future. Outsiders also praise her for her outstanding talent. She… will never be like Long Lingzhu.”
It's clear that she really dislikes Long Lingzhu.
Even the way they address the two sisters is completely different.
Feeling that she couldn't get any more useful information out of him, Ning Ruan casually asked, "So, how did you escape?"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Li Yuan's face turned deathly pale.
Even the body that had finally managed to relax began to tremble involuntarily.
In those light green eyes, fear and pain intertwined, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
Ning Ruan blinked as she looked at his sudden change in expression and added, "You don't have to say if you don't want to."
Anyway, it's pretty much the same thing.
Li Yuan shook her head violently, her lips trembling. She took several deep breaths before managing to steady her voice and begin to speak haltingly:
“There’s nothing I can’t say. Three years ago, my sister developed a hidden injury that even a light-elemental spirit master couldn’t heal. I had no choice but to go to the Great Eternal Domain to find medicine for her.”
"But it was during this time that I met Long Lingzhu!"
