Chapter 211: Auction – Part 2
Chapter 211: Auction – Part 2
“If that pirate-turned-hero is here, we won’t stand a chance for today’s precious items.”
“We don’t have a chance in the first place. I doubt more than half of us have enough money to even make the starting bid.”
Several participants still aimed to win an item or two even though it was a hopeless idea. Many participants who had come here to enjoy the atmosphere simply laughed at the naïve people as they enjoyed their popcorn.
The auction had yet to begin, but the show had already started.
A few minutes after Sun Wentai had appeared, another impressive cultivator showed up.
“The representative of Myriad Cauldron Sect, Zhang Junyi, has arrived!”
A pretty face bodybuilder in a leotard suit with a bulking asset entered the building along with three elders from Wet Banana Garden. His appearance was so striking that everyone avoided eye contact.
Zhang Junyi entered the building and looked around as he had sensed a familiar presence around here.
It wasn’t hard for him to spot Cao Mao, who was sleeping in the middle of the crow.
Zhang Junyi revealed a wide smile. Then, he turned to the Tang Clan’s employee. He licked his lips and ogled the male staff, “Are you available, young man?”
The male staff sweated bullets, “… N-N-N-N-No, sir. I-I-I’m married.”
“Ara, that’s not what I meant. You see, I’ve found my colleague among the guests on the first floor, so I need you to go and ask him if he wishes to join us,” Zhang Junyi looked at a certain man in a hooded cloth, who was dozing off. He pointed at the person. “See? He’s over there.”
“O-Oh, I-I see.”
“Well, let’s head to our seats first. I don’t want to interrupt his beauty sleep.”
The male staff reluctantly guided Zhang Junyi and his entourage to the fifth floor. Meanwhile, the friends of the employee were relieved that they weren’t assigned to be this elder’s auction assistant.
After Zhang Junyi had arrived, more famous people slowly entered the building, but all of them were guided to either the second floor, third floor, or the fourth floor. Only the fifth floor was reserved for the groups with a nascent soul expert.
“The sect master of Silver Phoenix Sect, Xu Lanying has arrived!”
“Patriarch of the Xia Clan and the vice master of Mountain Goose Sect, Xia Dun has arrived!”
“Vice master of Twilight Hunter Guild, Fu De has arrived!”
The two demon lords and the evil-cultivator-turned-vampire showed up. They came together in a big group as they were part of the same alliance.
Their presence terrified the people on the first floor. Even the employees shrunk away in fear.
Seeing how terrified they were, Xu Lanying pranked them. She released an invisible miasma, the succubus pheromone, to cover everything on the first floor.
Fragrant scene flooded the place, and all weak men under the 4th-stage inhaled them unwillingly. Then, changes occurred to their bodies.
All men got a severe erection. The size of their meat even got larger than usual, and they were attracted to Xu Lanying.
Within a few seconds, these men were no longer scared of Xu Lanying. Instead, they desired her body, drooling and ogling her chest and her hips.
Xu Lanying giggled. Then, she turned to her subordinates behind her and whispered, “Those snacks are for you. Pick whoever you want.”
Five succubi behind Xu Lanying grinned. They smiled at the horny men and flashed their underwear.
“OHHHHH!!”
Everybody went crazy. The men stood up and cheered while the woman cultivators clicked their tongues in disgust.
Xu Lanying had enough fun. She turned toward the nearest male servant and gave him a gentle smile, “Where should we sit?”
“Umm, the fifth floor, my lady.”
“Good. Bring us there. This is my first time here.”
“Y-Yes! Right away!”
While having an erection, the staff guided Xu Lanying, Xia Dun, and Fu De to the fifth floor. Followers of the three demon lords also followed after them. However, the succubi picked up their snacks on their way to the fifth floor, dragging a group of ten horny men with them.
Many men on the first floor wanted to go with them as well, but they were stopped by the female staff, who wasn’t affected by the pheromone.
A chaotic commotion ensued. The male cultivators protested and called for the succubi, wanting to be with them. On the other hand, the minority of the participants, female cultivators, helped the female employees to stop the men from causing trouble.
Because of the commotion, everyone on the higher floor could see the strong men on the first floor, who were unaffected by the temptation.
300 men were still sitting and ignoring the commotion. They paced their breath and drove out the toxic pheromone from their circulation system.
Meanwhile, Cao Mao was still snoring as if the chaos had nothing to do with him. Nobody had noticed that the pheromone had no effect on him.
The riot had lasted for five minutes until a certain monk arrived.
Zhao Bao had departed from Siren City and returned here for the auction event. He also brought his three disciples with him.
When the monk noticed the demonic pheromone in the air, he sighed and held his hands in prayer. Then, he chanted a sutra and circulated his light element Qi.
His voice and the aura of light soothed everyone in the theatre building. The horny men came back to their senses, and their boners were killed.
“Huh? What did I just do?”
“What am I doing?”
The men were confused. They couldn’t remember what they had done during the past few minutes.
The monk smiled, “Amitabha. Could this humble monk enter the building and join the auction event? This monk wishes to buy something for his disciples.”
“O-Oh, sure,” The men scratched their heads and returned to their seats while they were making the way for Zhao Bao.
Zhao Bao smiled for a moment before his face turned solemn. He expanded his senses to search for the source of trouble. When he found the group of demon lords, the monk sent a voice transmission to Xu Lanying in secret.
“Sexual harassment is a sin. Ravishing men is also a sin. Brainwashing them is even a graver sin! For the love of Buddha, please release the poor men.”
It didn’t take long for Xu Lanying to reply.
“Are you jealous? Do you want me to please your dick instead?”
Zhao Bao snorted and dismissed the succubus queen’s temptation. He turned to his young disciples and gestured them to follow him.
While the monk was at it, his nascent soul detached from his body and flew to the fifth floor’s VVIP lounge, where Xu Lanying, Xia Dun, and Fu De had been resting.
In secret, the monk’s nascent soul setup a purification array around the lounge area and activated it.
10 Seconds later, Xu Lanying, Xia Dun, and Fu De’s human transformation skills were undone. They revealed their true appearance.
Xu Lanying was still a pretty woman, but her skin was paler than a sheet. Black blood veins were visible under her silver skin. Her red lips and red pupils also highlighted her face as a demonic beauty. Yet, her dark wings and a long tail were visible.
Xia Dun’s body partially reverted to his cyclop form. His skin turned blue, and one of his eyes disappeared. Still, before his human transformation was canceled, he quickly activated a small domain around himself to prevent the array effect. After that, his face and skin reverted back to a human form, turning into a stern middle-aged man with a mustache and goatee in battle armor.
As for Fu De, bat wings protruded from his back and pierced through his robes. His skin turned dark purple while his hair and beard fell from his head. His face became so similar to Piccolo, but he didn’t have the antennas. Also, his fangs lengthened to the point that he couldn’t keep them in his mouth.
Not only the three demon lords’ transformation was undone, but their followers also revealed their true form. Vampires, succubi, and 3-meter giant cyclops suddenly appeared on the fifth floor.
The staff on the fifth floor and the living snacks of the succubi screamed and ran away in panic, thinking that these demons were letting loose.
With that move, Zhao Bao saved the lives of the horny men. The monk nodded in happiness that he had done another good deed today.
On the other hand, Xu Lanying and Xia Dun had realized that they had been targeted. They activated their domain and destroyed the make-shift array.
Zhao Bao’s nascent soul returned to his body. The monk pretended that he had done nothing wrong and walked upstairs to the fifth floor.
“Zhao Bao! I thought you were one of us! Are you trying to start a war by yourself!?”
Xu Lanying’s transmission voice echoed in Zhao Bao’s head. Yet, the monk was unperturbed. He continued walking to the lounge area to meet the demons face-to-face.
When he got to the fifth floor, he slightly bowed toward the group of demons and held his hands in prayer, “Amitabha, demon lords. It seems there is a misunderstanding between us. From the very beginning, Huangjin Monastery has never joined your side. We’re merely protecting the war victims regardless of whatever race they are.”
Xu Lanying clicked her tongue. She stomped toward Zhao Bao without fear and grabbed his kasaya, “Bull-fucking-shit! You have been kidnapping children from everywhere and training them to be your soldiers. Your Dao God is also an ogre from our side!”
“This is where you’re wrong. Our Buddha was never a demon. He was a human. Also, this monk shall remind you again. We’re providing a sanctuary for the war victims. We’ve never kidnapped anyone as you’ve claimed. Oh, by the way, this monk isn’t supposed to touch a woman. You should let go of your hand, or else.”
Zhao Bao and Xu Lanying circulated their light element and lightning element Qi, preparing for possible combat.
“Ahem!”
But a cough of a nascent soul host interrupted their quarrel.
A fragile old man who could barely walk staggered toward the group of nascent soul experts. He, too, had the air of a nascent soul cultivator, but he was a lot weaker than the group.
The thin old man with the physique of a 100-year-old undying mummy wore loose yellow robes with a dragon embroidered on it as if he was an emperor. Fortunately, he didn’t wear a crown, or everybody here would have thought that he was an ambitious old coot.
Gong Qi, the protector of the Tang Merchant Guild, had been working for the Tang Merchant Guild for half a century. Although he was no longer active in the martial world, Gong Qi was still capable enough to repel any 6th-stage cultivator with a bit of effort.
“Please don’t cause any trouble here. If we fight, a thousand bystanders will die, and we’ll ruin the auction event. Haven’t you come here to bid for our precious items?”
Xu Lanying sneered, “If we want to, we can just kill you and steal every item here!”
“Oh dear, hasn’t your whore mother taught you not to mess with another nascent soul expert in his turf? Oh, right. She was killed by Immortal Fengxian, right? I heard she tried to whore herself before she died pathetically by getting impaled from her anus through her mouth with a spear.”
“Oho? Haven’t your parents taught you about manners not to interrupt when adults are talking? Oh wait, now that I think about it, your parents were begging for their lives under my feet a hundred years ago. Oh, I’m so sorry, Gong Qi. I didn’t mean to burn your father alive and give your mother and wife to a horde of goblins as their plaything. No wonder that you hadn’t been properly educated about manners!”
RUMBLE
As these nascent soul experts kept provoking each other, their killing intent intensified and suffocated weaker cultivators on the first floor, except for the sole sleeping man.
Clap
Someone clapped their hands and dispersed their domain power and aura. The sound came from a VVIP box nearby.
Sun Wentai walked out of his VIP box while he continued clapping, “If you lots want to fight, go outside. Me and my boys are here for a civilized event. But if you brutes want a fight and you’re not satisfied with each other, continue your sharade if you want to wage a war against the imperial clan…”
Sun Wentai summoned an avatar of a sabertooth white tiger and activated his domain power. A hundred gates opened behind him and several heads of warships slowly moved out from the portals.
“Bring it! I don’t mind destroying this city and turning the northwest peninsula into the blood sea!”
RUMBLE
Instead of stopping the fight, Sun Wentai added fuel to the fire. He was laughing as he was preparing for a royal rumble.
But yet another nascent soul alchemist was also nearby. This muscular bodybuilder looked troubled.
“Ara, Ara. Big boys shouldn’t be naughty. But if you really want a go…”
Zhang Junyi slowly stripped the upper part of his leotard, revealing his painted pink nipples, which were glowing in purple light. His bulking lower part also got bigger.
“This elder sister will have to punish all of you! This sister will spank your soft little butts!”
“…”
Xu Lanying and Gong Qi’s faces darkened. They glanced at everyone as they hesitated if they should start a 3-way or 4-way combat here when the imperial clan hadn’t arrived yet.
For the sake of preserving their strength for a possible emergency or unforeseen incident, they canceled their domain power and walked away from each other.
Sun Wentai shook his head and sighed in disappointment. He also canceled his ghost warships and closed his domain portals.
As for Zhao Bao, who had partially started the mess, he was still smiling and snickering at everybody. He turned around to check his disciples’ condition after the intense staredown.
The three children had long since fainted.
“Amitabha…”
As such, the brief Mexican standoff came to an end.
