“Mama knows a lot of people baby~~~ Let’s talk about all of it later~~” Su Meiyao replied to her son’s question as she moves her head closer to his, placing her lips near his ears as she whispers, “When we’re alone~~~”
Despite her voice sounding almost inaudible, the other women in the room still hear it, given the fact that they are cultivators with enhanced perception as well, making some of them blush in embarrassment as they listen to Su Meiyao talking like that with Wu Xiaotian.
“I would love that” Wu Xiaotian replied as she hugs his mother standing in front of him, carrying her towards the large seat near the edge of the room where a large glass pane is located, giving them a great view of everything happening outside, people occupying the seats as they wait for the auction to start.
“What are you waiting for? Come here and sit with us~~~” looking at the four other ladies just watching as she got carried by her son towards their current position, Su Meiyao turned around to invite the other ladies, waving her hand at them while sitting between her son’s thighs, leaning her back on his muscular upper body, the body heat coming from him making her feel warm and comfortable.
Hearing Su Meiyao, the other ladies followed suit, moving towards the large seat and sitting beside him, Jiang Xinyue and Hua Xian’er occupying his right while Mo Lingxue and Li Yan occupy his left, the two older beauties leaning on his shoulders while feeling his arms on their back, reaching all the way through the other two ladies sitting beside them.
Being in a position like this, Wu Xiaotian couldn’t help but be grateful of how blessed he is, having all these great people for himself, people who possess such great characters and beauty, and most importantly, hearts that truly love him, probably even more than he loves them back.
“It’s about to start…” seeing the staff in the stage seemingly preparing something, Hua Xian’er, given that this is a place owned by her family, knows that the auction is about to start, her words immediately followed by the lights being turned off, with only a few spotlights remaining, focusing on the lady that just appeared on stage.
Wearing a seductive, sleeveless purple cheongsam with two slits on the side exposing a large amount of her fair skin, coupled with her good-looking face, the lady easily attracted the audiences’ attention, the silence as they stare at her making the lady nod in satisfaction, a bit of discomfort in her mind as she feels some of the gazes seemingly tearing a hole through her clothing.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, I am pleased to be the host of this great auction tonight, this humble lady’s name is Liu Wan’er, but for the sake of convenience, everyone can just address me as Wan’er…” the lady declared as her eyes looks around the building, the silence ensuing despite her talking making her heave a sigh of relief, as she thought that there will be someone who will harass her through words, an event that will definitely be awkward to deal with for her.
“Our auction house managed to gather quite the assortment of great things during the past few months, so I will guarantee on my name that the things about to reveal itself tonight will be things worth everyone’s attention” the lady declared before waving her hands to someone on the back stage, prompting two men to push something covered in thick cloth towards the stage, the large object reaching the height of the lady.
“Without further ado, let’s opt for a good start for this auction~!” the lady said cheerfully as she pulled on the cloth covering the first item, revealing the glass box underneath it, within it, a full body silver metal armor with golden engravings on it is revealed, the structure of the armor clearly meant that this is something specifically for men to wear.
Seeing that all of the attention are now diverted to the first item of the night rather than towards her, the lady hosting the auction smiles as she starts introducing the item.
“For the curious eyes of the esteemed audience, this is something someone recovered from the recently closed Crescent Moon Secret Realm. This is an artifact useful for the younger generation, even able to deflect the full power attack of a cultivator in the Perfection state Soul Formation Realm, not only that, but it also enhances the user’s affinity to qi by ten percent!! What’s more, the requirements for someone to use it is very lax, just a Core Formation Realm cultivator is more than enough to use the full potential of this armor.” the lady declared, the eyes of most young men in the crowd glowing bright as their intent to compete for the armor is completely revealed from their gazes.
“Damn!! That’s a good artifact! That’s mine HAHAHHA”
“Nobody dares to compete with me for that armor!!”
“Who the hell are you to say something like that? You think you’re good huh!??”
As the crowd starts going loud, it is clear that the first item of tonight sets a great momentum for the other things later, making the lady smile as she got a feeling that this event is going to be a huge success, something that will grant her great rewards if it really proceeds as she expected, the crowd still going wild as she continues to think to herself, only snapping a few moments later.
However, the next thing that the lady said is more than enough to shot most of the hopeful young men down, the lady declaring a price that stands as a barrier that causes most of the people here to get slapped in the face by reality itself.
“For the starting price of this artifact armor, we have ten million spirit stones, with increments not going lower than one hundred thousand spirit stones every bid” the lady declared, the fierce competition beginning as the rich people below the stage starts raising continuously, the lady smiling as the price of the artifact inflates more and more.
“Ten million one hundred thousand for that lady there”
“The gentleman here offers ten million and three hundred thousand”
“Oh? That handsome young man over there offers a raise of two hundred thousand more!!”
As the lady points over people with receding number as the price goes up, Wu Xiaotian stares intently at the armor as if he also intends to participate for it given that it seems to be a pretty decent armor, and he had all those spirit stones he earned from making pills with Hua Xian’er in the Thousand Roads City, as well as those that he picked up from the Crescent Moon Secret Realm.
While he was looking at it though, his maternal grandmother decided to sneak a peak at her grandson’s extremely handsome face, causing her to notice the contemplation in his eyes.
“Don’t buy the thing little Tian, I can make better things than that if you want” she said before reaching out to caress his cheeks, all while looking at him with an entranced loving eye.
“Whatever you say grandmother” Wu Xiaotian replies as his gaze also moves towards her, leaning a bit to land a kiss on her right cheek, causing the elderly beauty to close her eyes and smile in delight.
