Chapter 1018: Love Rival?
Chapter 1018: Chapter 1018: Love Rival?
“Who cares about them? Why are you so chatty? Quiet down, or leave.” Bai Xiuxiu said indifferently. That was just her nature, distant towards those she didn’t know well. She had always been like this even when she and Lan Mengqin were at Tiandou Star.
Huang Yuanlang wasn’t annoyed but smiled and said, “Okay, let’s watch the auction.” He then stopped talking and focused all of his attention on the auction.
Qian Lei turned his head to look at Lan Xuanyu, his expression somewhat odd, as if to say, Boss, you seem to have a rival in love.
Lan Xuanyu glared at him and remained silent.
At that moment, the auction had already started.
Two muscular men, their backs bulging, pushed a huge cart onto the auction stage.
Yi Cai said with a smile, “Although the unit price of our first item today isn’t high, it is rare to find such a quantity. It is provided by the Sky Domination Clan. Five tons of magic silver. The starting bid is five million Dragon Horse Coins. Each bid increment must be no less than one hundred thousand Dragon Horse Coins.”
When Lan Xuanyu and the others heard about this item, they couldn’t help but be excited. Five tons of magic silver was actually just a little over one cubic meter. The density of magic silver was very high.
Most importantly, they had seen the magic silver produced by the Sky Domination Clan from No. 76 Planet, which was of extremely high purity. But it wasn’t considered precious on No. 76 Planet. Five million Dragon Horse Coins was really not expensive. If this were in the Douluo Federation, given the properties of magic silver, the price would be ten times higher! Of course, the value of Dragon Horse Coins and federation coins from the Douluo Federation also differed.
More importantly, magic silver was the food for Little Lazy Bug, who needed to consume magic silver to produce Space Source Crystals. With the prices of magic silver in the Douluo Federation, they couldn’t afford to buy it; the academy would have to bear the cost. But if they purchased it here, it would be much cheaper.
But now the problem was, they simply didn’t have five million Dragon Horse Coins.
Bai Xiuxiu was also hesitating, holding the bidding device and fidgeting with it.
“Huang Yuanlang, do you have the final say at this auction?” she asked, turning her head towards Huang Yuanlang for the first time.
Huang Yuanlang was startled for a moment but replied, “Well, I do have a say. Although this is part of Fenglong City’s assets, my family still has a say in Fenglong City. We just need to pay the tax to the chief.”
“What if I win the bid and don’t pay?” Bai Xiuxiu asked, somewhat provocatively pressing the minimum bid auction button, using her only opportunity for a minimum bid auction.
The bidding below had already started, but suddenly, the big screen on the auction stage turned gold, and a large numeral one appeared on the screen.
The fervent bidding abruptly stopped, and many bidders’ gazes also shifted towards Box No. 1.
Yi Cai was also surprised; of course, she knew that Box No. 1 was reserved for the most distinguished guests. Usually, it was either the City Lord or the Young City Lord who sat there, rarely participating in the bidding, mostly just observing the auction. Unexpectedly, today they used the minimum bidding method to win the first auction item—magic silver, which was trivial for the City Lord!
But as surprised as she was, the auction had to continue. She hurriedly and respectfully said, “The esteemed guest in Box No. 1 has used the minimum bid to auction. Any other bids from the boxes?”
There was no response. Not only Yi Cai knew the background of those in Box No. 1, but because magic silver wasn’t of much value anyhow, no one would bother causing trouble.
“Sold. The first item is sold at the minimum bid. Congratulations to the guest in Box No. 1.” Yi Cai quickly closed this minimum bid auction.
At that moment, within Box No. 1, Huang Yuanlang finally reacted, his gaze oddly looking at Bai Xiuxiu, and said, “Xiuxiu, my beloved sister, you are really amusing. For a bit of magic silver, I would give you as much as you want as a gift for our first meeting.”
Bai Xiuxiu snorted, “Your welcome gift isn’t worth much.”
Huang Yuanlang laughed heartily, “Wasn’t this your choice?”
Bai Xiuxiu turned her head to continue looking in the direction of the auction, “I was just randomly pressing, okay?”
Huang Yuanlang chuckled, “Sure, of course it’s okay. Sister Xiuxiu, you really have personality. But, I like that personality of yours. Interesting, interesting. May I ask, from which family in Sky Dragon City are you?”
Bai Xiuxiu turned her head and gave him a blank look, “Are you checking my household registration? I won’t tell you.”
Huang Yuanlang seemed even more interested in her, “Then let me guess. You have the ice attribute power. You must belong to the Ice Dragon bloodline. Among our superior dragon clans, the only ones who can cultivate to human form are from the Ice Feather Clan. Am I right?”
“Wrong.” Bai Xiuxiu shook her head, a sly glint flashing in her eyes.
Huang Yuanlang was startled, he had thought his guess was very close.
Just then, the aura emanating from Bai Xiuxiu suddenly changed, a faint purple-black halo rippled from her body, an extreme chill instantly manifested—not from the temperature, but from the depths of the soul.
“Darkness! The darkness element. Ice-Dark Dual Property.” Huang Yuanlang’s voice suddenly raised, and his expression drastically changed. The warm smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by a look of shock.
He had already stood up and stepped back two steps, “Are you from the Sky Dragon Clan?”
Lan Xuanyu stood behind, observing the changes in Huang Yuanlang’s expressions and analyzing his words.
What Bai Xiuxiu did then was all part of their planned arrangement. They had anticipated that someone would probe Bai Xiuxiu’s identity, and showing the dark attribute was just a part of what Bai Xiuxiu had to demonstrate.
The purple-black halo dissipated. Bai Xiuxiu raised her hand, deep blue scales emerged on her palm, the translucent scales reflecting light under the chamber lights.
“I don’t belong to any clan, I am just me,” Bai Xiuxiu said somewhat proudly.
Huang Yuanlang looked puzzled, the shock he had felt was no small matter. He knew very well that most of the Dragon Clan has only one attribute, and only the Sky Dragon Clan has dual attributes. Because the Sky Dragon Clan originated from the powerful Sky Horse Clan through a transformation. The dual attributes come from both the transformation and the Sky Horse Clan itself. The reason the Sky Dragon Clan is the most noble of clans is because of their strength!
In his memory, among all superior dragon clans, there existed no dual attribute beings, not even those who could cultivate into human form.
This girl in front of him was a dual attribute superior dragon clan member, what did that mean? It meant that in the future, her chances of becoming a Dragon Knight were greatly increased! Moreover, the darkness attribute was one of the strongest among various attributes.
Although he felt that Bai Xiuxiu was not very strong at the moment, he could also sense that Bai Xiuxiu was very young, which is why he had called her sister upon entering.
Huang Yuanlang knew his own situation well, he was also one of the contenders for the future Dragon Knight, but, with his current strength, becoming a Dragon Knight was still difficult.
To become a Dragon Knight, one of the first requirements is to defeat a superior dragon clan member who willingly becomes his mount. Moreover, it has to be a powerful dragon clan member compatible with his own attributes.
Lan Xuanyu had sensed Huang Yuanlang’s cultivation earlier. This man, in his human form, had an energy fluctuation that’s about the level of a Human Titled Douluo. If transformed into dragon form, he would probably be even stronger, comparable to a Super Douluo. But his spiritual power was not very strong, not reaching the realm of the Spirit Domain. That’s why Lan Xuanyu could sense him so clearly.
“Sister Xiuxiu, it was impudent of me to ask earlier. However, your situation is indeed special. I am still very aware of our superior dragon clans. Did your dark attribute awaken later? It wasn’t originally in your bloodline, was it?” Huang Yuanlang probed as he was very curious about Bai Xiuxiu’s identity.
Among the Dragon Clan, there are also factions; he was somewhat concerned that Bai Xiuxiu might not be from his faction. And someone with dual attribute talent like Bai Xiuxiu, would definitely be trained as a Dragon Knight.
