Chapter 557: Treasure pricing. First Heaven-ranked sale.

Chapter 557: Treasure pricing. First Heaven-ranked sale.

After the sky outside had already begun darkening, Yasenia's attention went to her room's balcony.

The last two items would be auctioned in this main Auction Hall, which was reserved for special occasions. It was massive, with even a place for a small crowd of giant people. This room alone could hold about 10,000 people and 50 giants.

Yasenia leaned on the railing and rested her chin on her hand. "There are no free seats. Very impressive."

Carbira commented. "It is probably the first time for most of them to see a Heaven-ranked item up close."

Cecile. "Are people so out of touch with them?"

Carbira sighed. "I don't know how you perceive Heaven-ranked items, but plenty of cultivators with Hanna's strength have yet to see a Heaven-ranked item."

A long tail pats Cecile's head. While half turning her face, she smiled. "Remember where we are, dear. Although there are many that have come from afar to this auction event, this is quite a remote place."

Yasenia was alluding to the continent, but the other two considered she was talking about Koran City being a remote place. Follow the latest novels at novelhall.com

The person auctioning was a woman from a feline race wearing a formal dress. "Hello, and thank you for coming. Our Brilliant Auction House is delighted to see the anniversary event's popularity. I recommend coming back later. Our products are good even considering a central city's standards!"

The woman's voice was smooth, pleasant, clear, and easy to understand.

"Leaving aside pleasantries, let's start with today's main event."

The woman moved to the side of the large stage and waited until two people pushed two carts hidden by a green mantle.

Most people had seen the items before, but to keep the focus on the one being sold, keeping the other hidden was a proper way of dealing with it.

The woman moved toward one of them and smiled. "Without further teasing all of you, let's reveal one of the two last items you have been waiting for. They are incredible Masterpieces created by the recently formed Astral Sky Clan."

Yasenia lifted her eyebrow and glanced at Carbira. Carbira coughed and looked to the side. "It was not my idea."

Yasenia smirked. "Right."

'Whoever did this has extra ideas.'

Cecile asked. 'Is it something bad?'

Yasenia shook her head. 'Don't worry. It's nothing. Little and stupid tricks that are done because of either petty or with the intention of currying favor.'

The woman continued with a smile. "The leader of this uprising power is a divinely beautiful dragon whom our leader greatly appreciates. For reference, from all the items she presented for our anniversary auction event, the two that will be exposed are the weakest!"

The curtains of the treasure at the right lifted, and the sword was revealed, resting on a sword-holding item and inside a crystal box that only enhanced the item's beauty.

The lighting highlighted their design, making them glow with gorgeous colors.

Naturally, some people had never seen something like this, so conversation was lively in the hall.

"These are the weakest treasures? My heavens, they look more imposing than my family relic!"

"Either the leader is a spendthrift, or they can produce treasures like these regularly."

"Maybe they went all out to get themselves known?"

"I've heard their participants in the Torrent City tournament took very high places."

"Bah, these people are probably exaggerating. How can these two things be the strongest treasures?"

"If I had any of these, I would probably be able to fight two realms above my level!"

"We should go and visit that shop."

The conversations were of all kinds. Some people bragged exaggeratedly, others were disbelieving, and others just were impressed.

The woman presenting the items coughed, and the energy ripple silenced the audience.

Yasenia's eyes flashed. 'Ho? A mid-level Ethereal Soul Realm Cultivator. Not bad. The strength should be around a fifth-level Unification Realm cultivator.'

The VIP rooms could hear the whole theater and listen to the ongoing discussion.

Cecile laughed softly. "Maybe we've gone a bit overboard, my love. The impact is much bigger than expected."

Yasenia smiled wryly. "It doesn't matter. If we increase the security measures in our shops, it should be okay. However, we should be low-profile for a while, or else our clan members might be in danger of getting robbed by other powers."

Tatyana smirked, her red eyes dancing with amusement. "You miscalculated."

Yasenia focused on the person who bought the sword and saw that, unexpectedly, it was Fu Hao, the City Lord.

While looking over, she saw Fu Hao lifting his head and looking her way deeply. 'Oh? Has he paid to know my location? Well, whatever. Fu Hao has become a small fish with the lamias joining and Finnegan back at home. Only the people behind him are a true threat right now. I'm out of his league already.'

Yasenia didn't even bother reacting. She just used a little more than a month to leave this person's power behind, so in her eyes, he was nothing but a passing threat.

Moreover, the reckless son was dealt with, so he was not an "uncontrollable" menace who would act completely irrationally.

Yasenia did not underestimate her opponents, though, so she had a few people checking on him.

However, our dragoness's gaze had already expanded past Koran City.

Tatyana noticed her reaction and a flash of appreciation flashed in her eyes. 'My little treasure is so badass sometimes. It took a month to go from nothing to setting up a strong enough power to overthrow the original city's leading power. What's a month for a cultivator? Even if she took a year, it would be impressive, but Yasenia didn't miss the chances presented to herself and is shooting to the sky like a rocket.'

Hearing the start of the presentation of the second item, their attention refocused on the auction event.

Kali: I must say, Yasenia ignoring him was really...

Evelyn: Hot? I know. I'm almost in need of changing my panties.

Kali: ... I wanted to say mature, but well.

Author: Well, let's move to the question. I'm a bit tired today after writing almost 7000 words. QAQ.

Tatyana: Wow. That's a number.

Author: Anyway, I summon you!

Kaszty: Oh? Here I'm again, quite early, right?

Author: Well, your question is quite... short? Hahaha.

Andrea: Now I'm curious. What do you want to ask, Kaszty?

Kaszty: Here it goes!

Kaszty: Tatyana, how many heart demons do you have?

Tatyana: Hmm... Let me ask you a question back.

Kaszty: Um, sure?

Tatyana: How many loaves of bread have you eaten in your life?

Kaszty: Who would count something like that!?

Tatyana: Exactly~.

Kaszty: Oh...

Author: Although sad, it is true.

Yasenia: *Hugs Tatyana*

Tatyana: Oh dear, don't worry. Mommy is already accustomed. Moreover, just being by your side helps my soul relax, so just continue being yourself.

Yasenia: One day, I'll deal with all those Heart Demons.

Tatyana looked at Yasenia tenderly and with a bit of pity, knowing that her objective was basically impossible.

Author: Well, let's leave it here today.

Kaszty: Thanks!

Angel: Rest well, Author~.

Andrea: Have a nice rest~.

Author: Thanks! For all the little lurkers, have an excellent day. Goodnight!
