[The auction]
As the money flowed freely, exchanged with an almost reckless abandon, even the seasoned host found herself captivated by the dazzling display. The sheer magnitude of wealth being tossed around left her momentarily taken aback, her cheeks beginning to ache from the strain of concealing an uncontrollable grin. Despite her best efforts to maintain composure and professionalism (and her image as a mysterious host for tonight's auction) the infectious excitement and the allure of the riches before her proved too irresistible to mask completely. The corners of her mouth betrayed her as they curved upwards, a telltale sign of the delight she felt in witnessing such lavishness, she almost wanted to egg the cultivators on, wanting for the bid to go higher. Though she tried to hide her joy, it seeped through, a testament to the intoxicating allure of the opulent spectacle unfolding before her eyes.With trembling hands and bloodshot
[Infamous Bastard]
Peng Mingxia scanned the visible private rooms from where he was sitting and found that he could not see through them, as he scanned the entire venue, he also found out that there were many familiar faces within the crowd. Which was within his expectations.Granted, it did bring a tinge of amusement on his face when he saw that some of these familiar faces that he saw were already looking at him like they also expected him to be there.Peng Mingxia started to wonder if he was really that predictable. Ignoring how other people's stare seemed to want to reach out and carve his brains out to examine his thoughts up close, Peng Mingxia looked far too amused by how others were perceiving him.'Crazy bastard.''Even the goddess cannot fathom that bastard—''Psychotic mental doctor.''Hmph! Let's see how much gold you've piled up you crazy doct—'
[Vulture like flies]
Zhi Ruo went back to her seat, and sat properly while fixing her clothes. "Do they look familiar to you?" She said, as she touched her mask to adjust it, her voice reached Yuan Chuanli's ears, who's eyes flickered towards the young miss before going back to the image on the surveillance set up.The boy genius shook his head. "No, the only thing that's familiar is that crest on their clothes." He nodded towards the direction of the people in the paper. Honestly stating his observations aloud. He crossed his arms around his chest.Yuan Chuanli briefly wondered if the money that the Liu clan people had bought was enough for the item that they were asked to get. The bag— from the angle that they were watching— didn't look like it was enough to hold a few gold papers or coins. The boy genius wondered if the bag was supposed to be a space storage bag. "I had a feeling that you would say that." Zhi Ruo nodded her
[Identifying]
The first thing that Yuan Chuanli noticed was the numerous amounts of red and blue dots that scattered across the entire premise. Yuan Chuanli knew that there were many formidable foes that roamed in the vicinity, but he didn't expect that there were 'that' many around them."Don't look so surprised now," Zhi Ruo chimed, her voice light and unworried. "What did you expect from a auction house such as this. It would be more surprising if there aren't many strong cultivators around despite such a grand merchandise that's being put in the public." She said. This time her hand hovering over the paper."I know that," Yuan Chuanli smoothly slid the words out of his mouth as if he truly knew that from the start. "What are you even doing now?" He diverted the attention to another topic instead. "Just shush, you have eyes, use them and stop asking questions." Zhi Ruo would have raised her hands and waved them in front of Yuan Chuanli'
[Law energy]
His eyes glowed, panicked? No he was alarmed, not a single memory resurfaced on the front of his mind telling him what he just encountered. 'What was that?' And 'that was?' Questions popped up constantly in his mind. But to no avail— his staring at Zhi Ruo's palm bore him no fruit at all."If you are really curious, then I will tell you now." Zhi Ruo waved her hand, and in a swift movement she tossed the capsule to the center of the paper that she laid on the table. "It was merely a fragment of law energy, though I don't think you would understand that term yet."Yuan Chuanli suppressed the instant reaction of him swallowing a gulp. Something that he has not gotten used to, was Zhi Ruo treating such matters with little to no care. His gaze trailed towards the hand that was clasping the singular petal silently."Whatever, just do what you are about to do. It's useless for me to ask you anyways." He merely ended up muttering und
[Surveillance] pt 3
Yuan Chuanli grunted after being pulled by Zhi Ruo roughly, he managed to twist his body into a much more comfortable position the moment he realized that he was almost sitting on Zhi Ruo's lap. The awkward cough that he let out escaped Zhi Ruo's noticed, but how he distanced himself in a prim and proper way certainly didn't.Zhi Ruo puckered her lips unused and a bit confused as to why Yuan Chuanli was so quick to fluster but she shrugged it off either way. Instead, she inclined her head towards the table in front of her where the paper laid on the table innocently. Yuan Chuanli's face was placid, as he only took a second to gather his thoughts. He blinked, and for him, that was the only indication that he already had a incantation in mind. "Hmm, I have a feeling you need one of those security incantations?" Yuan Chuanli leaned on the table. His hands cracking as he pulled on his fingers. From the corners of his eyes, he co
