97 Auction
Xuanye: Please continue to touch me, okay?
Yu Li followed Xuan Ye in the sleek, spacious flying car and arrived at a large cloud island in the sky. She looked at the castle building on the cloud island, shining like a star in the night sky, and was a little surprised:
"I thought the Dark Zone was mostly underground?"
"Indeed, most of the dark zones are underground, but the unique feature of Yunchen Star is its various cloud islands, so the dark zones on Yunchen Star have adapted to local customs."
Xuanye chuckled lightly, and the breeze ruffled the strands of hair on his forehead, softening his handsome face with clear and deep features. Even the imposing aura around him seemed to ease.
Yu Li was stunned for a moment when she looked at his face, until the thick dragon tail behind him quietly hooked her wrist and the cold scales touched her warm skin, which made her wake up. She touched the scales on the tip of the dragon's tail embarrassedly.
Xuanye, who had been paying attention to her, naturally noticed her discomfort. His bloodshot eyes quickly curved, and he extended his long, slender hand in an invitation:
"Let's go, leave it to me this time." Instead of other clones.
Yu Li nodded and placed her hand in his palm. She glanced at the man who was in a very good mood and muttered in her heart that she always felt that there was something else behind his words.
After they entered the low-key and luxurious top-floor private room together, a waiter quickly handed them a dark golden book, as well as various drinks and exquisite pastries.
Yu Li sat on a leather sofa covered with soft blankets, flipping through the book. When the items in the book were touched, three-dimensional models and introductions would appear for people to see.
The booklet contained much more detailed information than the items in the initial invitation letter, so she began to look at the items that interested her in the booklet.
Instead, Xuanye accepted the energy juice specially brought by Yan Xuan and a blueberry mousse cake that Yu Li had wanted to eat before, and placed them one by one on the small round table next to the sofa.
Yan Xuan suppressed his curiosity about Yu Li, did not even look up at the girl, and silently lowered his head and retreated.
Yu Li heard the noise and immediately spotted the colorful, layered mousse cake on the table. She was delighted.
"It's the little cake I've always wanted to eat!"
"Well, try it and see if you like it." Xuanye looked at the girl's eyes which were twinkling with little stars, the corners of his mouth curled up, he picked up a glass of wine from the table and spoke.
"Okay, thank you." Yu Li picked up the exquisite silver spoon with a flower pattern placed beside her, and noticed the crystal clear amber wine in the man's glass. She suddenly felt eager to try it.
"No, Ah Li, have you forgotten that you were drunk before?" It would be better to drink fruit wine with a low alcohol content. The alcohol content of this wine was very high. Xuanye drank it all under her gaze, his protruding Adam's apple rolling. He put the glass on the table and pushed the juice he had prepared before in front of the girl.
Hearing Xuanye's words, Yu Li's gaze shifted from the wine glass to the light-colored, clear juice in front of her. She silently puffed her cheeks. Although she knew that she couldn't drink much, sometimes she really wanted to try it. After all, the color was so beautiful and it looked very appetizing.
She thought about it this way, but she still dutifully scooped a spoonful of cake. The mousse was smooth and cool, the blueberry jam in the middle was sweet and sour and refreshing, and the cake at the bottom was soft and delicious. The overall taste was balanced between sweet and sour, with a light fruity aroma, refreshing and not greasy. It tasted great. Sure enough, this trial was a good one!
Yu Li's eyes narrowed with happiness as she ate, and she scooped another spoonful and fed it to Mo Yan who was lying in her arms.
Mo Yan ate it in one gulp and glanced at Xuanye who was sitting next to him. The meaning of showing off was self-evident.
Xuanye: ...Heh.
As the two chatted, a dazzling light lit up on the booth outside the glass window. A bright and beautiful woman in a simple and elegant dress stood in front of the booth and spoke with a friendly smile:
"Welcome everyone to this auction. This auction is divided into the first half and the second half. The first half will auction items of earth quality and below; the second half will auction items of heaven quality."
The auctioneer knocked the hammer on the table and said loudly, "Now, the auction officially begins!"
"The first lot is a low-grade spirit repair potion, used to repair various types of damage to the spirit sea of A-level and below psychics. It is of excellent quality and comes in two bottles. The reserve price for each bottle is 10 million. The auction begins now!"
The auctioneer raised his hand as he spoke, and a transparent glass box appeared in front of her. The box contained two light blue potions with dots of purple light flowing through them. Under the strong light, the two colors overlapped with each other, looking mysterious and gorgeous. It didn't look like potions but some kind of beautiful and precious energy mineral.
The Mental Restoration Potion is a relatively rare potion among the lower-grade potions, but its effect is extremely powerful. Basically, whenever it appears, it will be bought at a high price. This potion is also the most suitable opening potion for an auction.
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, people started bidding.
"Twenty million!"
"Thirty million!"
Yu Li listened to the quotation and looked at the medicine on the table. She blinked and said, "Is that the medicine I gave you before?" With the lighting and the mist, it looks several times more expensive than before!
"Well, this potion is very suitable as an opening. Is there anything you want, Ali?" Xuanye asked.
"No more. A few days ago, you and Fei Yuxin gave me a lot of medicinal herbs and minerals. Now there is nothing I want." Yu Li shook her head. She just looked through the book. Although she was interested in some things, she would not take pictures of them specifically.
Xuanye raised his eyebrows when he heard her say this, but didn't say anything else. He moved his fingers on the sofa twice, took out a small velvet box from the space bracelet and handed it to Yu Li.
She took the palm-sized gift box and asked doubtfully, "What is this?"
"It's a return gift for the bracelet I gave you before." Xuanye replied, and the dragon tail behind him shook unconsciously. The golden pansy-shaped ornament on the dragon tail was shining with a strange light. The two colors of black and gold complemented each other, which attracted people's attention.
"Can it be opened?" Yu Li asked, but her eyes were on his dragon tail.
"Of course." Xuanye was also very satisfied with her gaze. The dark dragon tail actively and intimately wrapped around her wrist.
As Yu Li opened the gift box, she asked curiously, "Xuan Ye should have dragon horns besides his tail, right?"
"Well, Ah Li, do you want to see it?"
"......" Yu Li listened to his low and mellow voice, like a cello. Her eyes were a little vague. She did not answer but continued to open the gift box.
Xuanye didn't get angry when he didn't receive a response. He stood up and walked to the girl. He stretched out his sharp black nails in front of her, untied the complicated ribbon knot on the velvet box, and hooked out a simple golden necklace from the box. On the necklace hung a piece of polished scales that looked like gems. Yu Li could feel the extremely abundant energy fluctuations from the scales.
The man leaned over and approached her, black mist wrapped around his strong and powerful body, and his body began to undergo some strange changes.
Yu Li looked up and saw a pair of massive, black, spiral horns sprouting from his hair. Scales appeared at the corners of his deep eyes and on his neck, and a pair of broad, powerful dragon wings stretched out behind him. Pitch-black dragon scales were neatly arranged on the wings, and at the ends and joints of the wing tails, protruding hard, thick bones gathered into a ferocious cluster of spikes. This didn't seem strange at all, but rather visually more striking and beautiful.
The shadows cast by the pair of dragon wings completely covered the girl, wrapping her whole body tightly. This action was full of strong possessive desire, but Yu Li, who was in it, was not aware of it at all.
She was stunned when she saw the man who had transformed into a half-beast. Xuanye chuckled softly, and carefully placed his sharp dragon claws on her delicate skin. He put the necklace around her neck and invited her, "Would you like to touch it? Whether it's scales or horns, I'm fine."
Yu Li blinked her eyes, pursed her lips, and whispered, "Is it really okay?"
"Of course." Xuanye saw that the girl was a little embarrassed but more eager to make a move, and added: "This is compensation for not telling you the truth about your identity before."
"Yeah!" The convinced girl smiled widely, stretched out her hand, and gently touched the scales under the corners of his eyes with her warm and soft fingertips. The cold and hard touch made her feel very strange.
Xuanye lowered his head following her movements, and the hard and thick dragon horn was placed in her palm. Yu Li touched it curiously, but did not notice the man's instantly clenched fists and tensed body.
After Yu Li satisfied her curiosity, she wanted to let go of her hand, but Xuanye grabbed her hand and put it on his powerful dragon tail. Xuanye said:
"Keep touching me, okay?"
The black hair covered his animal eyes that had become a thin line. The man's voice was much lower and hoarse than before, as if he was suppressing some overly strong emotions. Yu Li felt as if something was wrong while touching it, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
After touching him for more than ten minutes, Yu Li looked at the man in front of her who was as stiff as a stone and didn't move at all and asked awkwardly, "Xuanye, are you really okay now?"
Xuanye didn't expect that his self-control would become so weak in front of the girl. He just touched her once, but he couldn't control himself. It's really...
Xuanye closed his eyes for a moment, and then he spoke slowly: "Well, it's okay, it's just a little too comfortable. I'm sorry that I might have scared you."
His voice was terribly hoarse, as if he could no longer suppress it. A black light flashed, and everything except the sofa where Yu Li was sitting and the small round table next to her was crushed into powder. The man in front of him turned into a huge and mighty black dragon that was more than ten meters long. Fortunately, this box was very spacious, otherwise the room might have been torn apart by him.
The black dragon, transformed back into its original form, pressed down the two hideous protrusions under its belly. With a sweep of its tail, it encircled the entire sofa and the girl in its embrace. The dragon's head rested on the sofa, its beautiful animal eyes sparkling. "Are you scared?"
She was indeed frightened again. After all, transforming from a human into a dragon was something she was still surprised by, even though she had seen it once before. She asked curiously, "If you get too comfortable, you'll transform into your original form?"
"Hmm." The black dragon responded, and the entire dragon head moved much closer, sticking directly to the girl's body, like an overly clingy big dog, wanting to stick to its owner all the time. If Xuanye had not still had his rationality, he would have wanted to stick out his tongue to lick the girl's cheek.
