Chapter 1271 - An acquaintance at the auction (1)

“There’s no harm in being prepared! It’d be a waste not to use the labor that’s delivered to our door. ” The master of the ning family said nonchalantly. Actually, he had his own reasons for making Leng ruoxue agree to that kid’s request! In his opinion, although that kid was dispensable in the Chi family, he could be a good chess piece if used well. After the secret realm incident, he had to pull a few of the Eight Families from the eight divine realms to his side, so that they wouldn’t be too passive in the future.

“That’s true. Then, Godfather will make good use of him!” Leng ruoxue said helplessly.

“I say, old thing, he’s the Chi clan’s genius, and you still want to use him.” The first elder said with an evil smile.

“So what if he’s a genius of the Chi family? Geniuses like him are aplenty in the Chi clan, so it doesn’t matter if he’s here or not!” The master of the ning family said disapprovingly.

“Tsk! Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re thinking. You’re trying to use him to drag that old thing from the Chi family down with you!” The first elder said with an understanding expression.

“Hehe! You’re right, that old thing is too cunning and timid, so I had to do this! Hmph! If he doesn’t join forces with me, I’ll have no choice but to take drastic measures!” The master of the ning family said proudly.

“Oh! Could it be that you want to use that matter to threaten that old thing from the Chi family?” The great elder asked curiously. If this matter were to spread, the Chi family would be in deep trouble. Old man ning’s plan was too vicious. He couldn’t help but think to himself. However, there was nothing he could do about it. His opponent was too strong!

“Don’t make it sound so bad! I’m afraid he’ll back down, so I have no choice!” The master of the ning family also said with a difficult expression.

“Come on! I still don’t know you. ” The great elder rolled his eyes at the master of the ning family and said in disdain.

“Godfather, great elder, please stop. We should go back.” Leng ruoxue sighed softly and said helplessly. These two people treated bickering as a form of entertainment. However, as outsiders, they were shocked to see it. They were afraid that one day, they would really start a fight because of a disagreement.

“Oh! Then let’s go back!” The master of the ning family glared at the great elder.

After that, everyone returned to the inn together.

Two days later.

The slave auction had officially begun.

The slave auction was held in the largest auction house in Ying city, and this auction house was naturally owned by the Chi clan.

When Leng ruoxue and her group arrived at the auction house, they went straight to the VIP box they had reserved. Not long after, the Chi clan’s genius and Chi Rui arrived as well. The genius brought along dozens of attendants, all dressed in black. After the genius and Chi Rui sat down, they stood behind them in an orderly and well-trained manner.

When Leng ruoxue and the rest saw this, they were speechless. They felt as though they were looking at someone they knew. Even the woman who claimed to be from the ascender Alliance had so many people behind her. However, they knew very well that not all powerful people liked to be smug. For example, the master of the ning family generally did not allow his subordinates to follow too close. Sometimes, he did not allow his subordinates to follow him because he was afraid of being surrounded by people. However, the face of the woman in front of them clearly said,”come and watch me!”

“Miss Leng, if there are any slaves that you fancy, remember to tell me. I’ll get the mission Association to give you an internal price.” Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, the Chi clan genius spoke up.

“Alright, I’ll thank you in advance.” Leng ruoxue said indifferently.

“There’s an internal price for this slave? Could it be that there’s something shady going on in this slave auction?” Feng Da asked curiously. As far as he knew, every auction should have a clear price, and there was no such thing as an internal price. Could it be that this slave auction was different?

“Of course there is. Actually, the auction is just a distraction. Many slaves already have owners. However, in order to show the fairness of the Guild, they have an auction.” The Chi clan genius explained proudly. After all, this kind of inside information was not something that everyone could know.

“Then what if someone offers a higher price for a slave that has caught someone’s eye?” Leng ruoxue asked in confusion.

“Usually, this kind of thing doesn’t happen. After all, the participating forces all have a tacit understanding with each other. It’s rare for someone to steal another person’s slave.” The Chi clan genius explained.

“What if there is? It can’t be that all the forces have a tacit understanding!” Leng ruoxue asked with a smile.

“Uh! Such a thing has never happened before. ” The Chi clan genius wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and couldn’t help but think to himself,’Wu … How can such a beautiful woman be so difficult to deal with?’

“Oh!” Leng ruoxue responded softly and did not say anything else.

“Miss Leng, these slaves aren’t worth much. So, generally speaking, there are very few situations where people fight over them. After all, they aren’t anything good.” The Chi clan genius couldn’t help but argue.

“Yes, I understand.” Leng ruoxue chuckled.

As the auction officially began, the first ten slaves were quickly won by a force. Then, more slaves were brought to the auction stage for the crowd to watch and auction.

In the eyes of the people of the divine realm, the slaves that appeared first were of the lowest quality and were also the least valuable. The later they appeared, the higher the quality and price of the slaves would be. Thus, many powers did not make any moves, only waiting to auction off the slaves that they had already taken a fancy to. Thus, this slave auction was not as enthusiastic and popular as an item auction!

The rules of the slave auction were similar to those of the item auction. The highest bidder would get the item. However, this was only for show.

There were hundreds of slaves to be auctioned in this auction. Except for a few who had been selected by the major forces, most of them were ownerless. These ownerless slaves could naturally be bid by the major forces at will.

In the VIP box.

Looking at the slave auction that was already in the middle of the auction, Feng Da and the others were full of questions. They couldn’t understand why the major forces were still in the mood to buy slaves after suffering such a heavy blow. He really was heartless! At the very least, they wouldn’t have the time to do so.
