Chapter 164 A Kind-Hearted Guest
Xie Liuyin's tone was clearly very impolite, but when the half-demons heard it, a rare look of joy appeared on their faces.
You have to know that the spiritual fruits in the box are all good things that they could never touch before and they were not even qualified to take a look at them.
They thought that the distinguished guest they were to serve this time would have a strange temper and they would definitely suffer, but they did not expect that although the distinguished guest had a cold temper, he was very generous.
Several young half-demons held the spiritual fruits and stood obediently in the corner, not daring to reach out to take the fruits for a while.
Xie Liuyin naturally noticed the caution on their faces and said, "Eat quickly. You also need to finish the other food on the table today."
There were various dishes on the table, both meat and vegetarian, the only thing in common was the spiritual energy lingering above them.
It was obvious that these were things that the half-demons had not been qualified to eat before. They thought they were lucky to have a bite of spiritual fruit, but they did not expect that these two distinguished guests would reward them with these dishes as well.
Several half-demons felt dizzy after receiving all these benefits at once.
It was not until Xie Liuyin urged them again that they came to their senses and realized that this was not fake, but real!
They looked at each other for a few times, and one of the thinnest half-demon was the first to lose his patience and took a bite of the spiritual fruit in his hand on the spot.
The others were startled and subconsciously looked at Xie Liuyin's reaction, wanting to see if she would teach them a lesson.
After all, similar things had happened before. The distinguished guest deliberately used spiritual fruits to tease these half-demons. Once a half-demon really fell for the trick and ate the spiritual fruits, what awaited him was endless beatings and scolding.
Not only will the distinguished guests teach them a lesson, but the manager of the auction house will also punish them later.
So even though these half-demons received Xie Liuyin's personal promise, none of them dared to move.
But this time, seeing that the half-demon had almost finished eating the spiritual fruit in his hand, the distinguished guest did not move at all and looked very normal.
What don’t these half-demons understand now? This distinguished guest is really willing to give them good things to eat!
The half-demons no longer had any scruples, and each of them held the spiritual fruit and ate it carefully and cherishingly. They took small bites of the spiritual fruit, not wanting to miss even a bit of the juice.
Because they were afraid that making too much noise would displease the guests, they only dared to grind the fruit a little bit at a time with their teeth and put it into their mouths.
The rich spiritual energy entered the bodies of the half-demons along with the fruit pulp. The spiritual energy quickly nourished their entire bodies and healed their injuries a lot.
The weakest half-demon felt the most obvious benefits. He found that his body, which had been weak for many days, gradually felt warmer, and even his strength recovered a lot.
Because it was a treat for distinguished guests, the auction house was very generous and gave Xie Liuyin and the others a lot of spiritual fruits. Each of these half-demons could get at least three.
They finished eating two of them and held the last one in their hand, reluctant to eat it.
It’s not that they don’t want to eat, but they are considering whether to leave a spiritual fruit to deal with what happens next.
You have to know that the auction house is not friendly to these half-demons. They live much worse than human servants and will be fined at any time.
After a beating with a whip, even a half-demon with strong self-healing ability will lose half his life.
If you could eat a spiritual fruit of such high quality at this time, it would be more useful than any spiritual medicine.
However, the half-demons were worried that they would not be able to keep the spiritual fruits. After all, the auction house had strict rules, and every half-demon who came out to serve the guests would have his belongings checked several times.
The spiritual fruits in their hands would not be hidden for long before being discovered, and they would probably be accused by the steward of stealing food from the private room.
In the end, it was the skinny half-demon who opened his mouth first and ate the last spiritual fruit.
Seeing this, the other half-demons didn't hesitate any more and followed the other party's example to put the spiritual fruit into their stomachs.
The things may not be kept in their hands, but now that they are in their stomachs, they all belong to them.
Instead of carrying the spiritual fruit with you and worrying about being discovered and punished for it, it is better to eat it all now. Maybe it can help improve your cultivation a little.
Thinking of this, the half-demons quickly finished off all the spiritual fruits. Xie Liuyin saw the satisfied expressions on their faces, pretended not to see it, and silently withdrew his gaze.
In just a short while, the private rooms on the third floor were already full, and Jiuzhou's waiter was leading the guests from the second floor in.
Xie Liuyin looked at the high platform not far away, where someone had already presented the first item for auction. Although the guests in the box knew what the item was, it was still covered with a red cloth, preventing people from seeing its true appearance.
Xie Liuyin flipped through the auction booklet in his hand. The booklet was well made. Every time a page was turned, an image would be projected for the item marked on it, which would introduce the item in detail so that people could clearly see the appearance and details of the item.
This time, the Jiuzhou Auction has prepared ten items, all of which are rare items.
Ranked seventh is the Five Elements Spirit Crystal that Xie Liuyin wants to obtain.
Jiuzhou Auction House is quite capable as it has collected all five elements of spirit crystals with five attributes. Xie Liuyin was able to collect half of the treasures needed to increase his space in one go.
Of course, the prices of the auction items are also very attractive, so high that ordinary monks would be shocked and dare not breathe at a glance.
Fortunately, Xie Liuyin brought enough spirit stones this time, so there was no problem at all in bidding for just one five-element spirit crystal.
However, what concerned her was the last lot, which did not have any introduction or image in the brochure.
Xie Liuyin had asked the auction house before, and they only said that it was an extremely good thing and asked her to wait and see.
Even to a wealthy patron like her, the auction house refused to reveal any information about the item. It must be a very rare treasure.
While she was casually flipping through the auction brochure, almost all the guests on the second floor came in.
Seeing that the time was almost up, the people at the auction house told everyone to get ready to welcome the guests on the first floor.
Jiuzhou Auction House made a lot of preparations for this auction. It started promoting it long ago and even sent invitations to familiar guests in advance.
Therefore, there were quite a few monks who came to participate in the auction today. Xie Liuyin on the third floor looked down and saw a few familiar figures as expected.
Many of them were people Xie Liuyin had seen in his previous life. They were not unknown figures in the world of cultivation, but they were only sitting on the first floor.
But soon Xie Liuyin figured it out. In the world of cultivation, spiritual stones are also needed for cultivation, and the higher the level of cultivation, the more spiritual stones are needed.
These monks are not like her. They have a rich master and can get invitations to the auction with the pocket money given by the master.
Thinking of this, Xie Liuyin became more grateful to Xie Mingzhu. If the other party had not been reborn and insisted on exchanging masters with her, where would she get so many spirit stones to spend?
These distracting thoughts quickly disappeared, and were replaced by a handsome young man who slowly walked out of the stage. He was the auctioneer of this auction.
