Alex walked into the inn and asked around, and it so happened that there were still two rooms left, for a total of two thousand spiritual stones a night.Hermione jumped up at that. “What? A thousand spiritual stones for one night, you’re some shady business, aren’t you?!”The innkeeper looked disgusted. “What era are we in now? One thousand spiritual stones are already cheap. You can go and ask if any inns are cheaper than mine. If there is, I’ll pay you back your spiritual stones.”“Mark your words!”Hermione was furious and was about to rush out to ask around the other inns.Alex pulled her back. “What the hell are you doing? It’s just two thousand spiritual stones.” He then pulled out the amount and handed it to the innkeeper.He wasn’t all that bothered about spiritual stones, after all.Alex had many spiritual stones, to the point that even his storage ring couldn’t keep that many. If it wasn’t enough, he could just sell a couple of elixirs… However, Hermione seemed to b
“Urgh, forget it then. Let’s go to the room and rest,” Alex said.After they went into the room, Hermione said, “Sir, let’s go and get an invitation. It’s such a rare chance, and we might come across something good, right?”Alex had the same thought.“Who do we go after, though?”“I know a guy, and I saw him in front of Cloud Inn just now. He must have an invitation on hand.”“Who is it?”“A disciple from the Golden Sun Sect.”How would Alex know which sect was that? Anyway, it didn’t matter. Since Hermione had a target, it would be the easiest. They could knock the guy out and grab the invitation. However, what Hermione was worried about, Alex was now the target of public criticism. Countless young talents in their generation regarded him as rat turd, the one who had robbed Ynes Larkin’s pure body. The moment he was recognized, it would just mean trouble.Alex raised an eyebrow.” Isn’t that a simple thing? Wait here for a bit.”He went into the small cubicle of the room for a
After Alex left the inn, he changed his appearance to Donovan Orlando’s.Because the real Donovan was inside the Infernal Realm, he had been thrown into a spatial cave that Artemis had opened. Alex felt that Donovan would have gone to a faraway place and wouldn’t be able to come back in such a short time.Also, according to Hermione Yggdrasill’s words, Donovan was a very prestigious person in Western Ridge. As the young master of Sun Shrine, it would make a lot of big sects in the sanctuary show him some respect. On top of that, it would allow Alex to avoid being pursued, so it was a timely matter. As for Neela, she went into Alex’s body and hid within his skin as protection.Hermione had appeared in front of others before, and her contacts in Western Ridge were quite good. She knew and had met a lot of people. Alex didn’t teach her the Transformation technique, but he taught her a little makeup.After putting on some makeup, Hermione became a white-faced, red-lipped, strange wom
Ynes Larkin’s heart was about to jump out of her chest. Her face drained of blood and was pale white. “No, it’s not like that. You.. I… I will give you an explanation, but you need to give me some time.”Seeing how nervous Ynes was, Hermione Yggdrasill almost couldn’t hold it in and was about to laugh out loud.Just then, a delicate woman’s voice came from behind her. “Time? Give you some more time to find your adulterer to rendezvous, and give you some time so that you can conceive a child by then? Do you think you can? And you still have the gall to stand in front of my senior brother?”The one who came was none other than the Little Cat Fairy from Sun Shrine.A childlike adult little lolita.Even her voice was like a little girl.But the words that came out of her mouth were just pure evil.Mica then ran over and hugged Alex’s arm. She plastered her body against his, and even her chest was tightly pressed up against him. Her voice was coyish as she said, “Senior, do you kno
Samson Hendrik was still all smiles and laughing. He already had a problem with Donovan Orlando, so with this opportunity presented right in his face, how could he let it go?“Oh my, Little Cat Fairy, I’m also doing this for your sake. Who doesn’t know about you liking Donovan? Now that Ynes has found her true love, you can fill the empty spot in your senior’s heart. Or, do you not like your senior anymore and have found someone else?”The lolita panicked and hurriedly said, “Who said so? My senior is the only one for me!”“...”Samson’s voice was loud, and everyone around them could basically hear every word from him. Adding on the fact that Donovan and Ynes Larkin were the topics of discussion, many people gathered very quickly.“What, what?”“Holy Maiden Ynes is in love with someone else? Are you serious? Young Sect Master Orlando, how about you consider my daughter? My daughter talks about you every day!”“How can your daughter compare to my disciple? My disciple is talented
“Two million…”Finally, this so-called true Dragon Bone Sword was sold to a middle-aged man for 3.5 million spiritual stones. Alex heard Neela’s voice, ‘This is not a dragon bone at all, but a piece of Champsosaurus bone. That’s definitely not a dragon.’Alex smiled and didn’t say anything.The second and third displayed items didn’t interest Alex until the fourth item was taken out when the Chaos Tree immediately sent out a rustling sound. It shook continuously, more intense than he ever felt before. The shaking even affected Alex’s heart, making it tremble and whatnot.‘What’s going on?‘The Chaos Tree has never shaken so much before, not even when it was faced with the Chaos Beads, and it just gave a gentle reminder then.‘So, this fourth item is definitely not ordinary.’At this moment, the host above said, “The next item to be auctioned is a piece of wood. It looks very ordinary. However, our appraisers have found that we cannot identify its properties and specific mate
The middle-aged man began to hesitate.He didn’t know whether what Alex had said was true or not, whether the wood had caught his eye, or whether Alex had used those words as pretext… But, in front of so many heroic, towering figures, it was impossible to backtrack after saying such words.To be on the safe side, he deliberately ran to the front of the stage to look at the wood several times carefully.Confirming that there was nothing to be seen, he finally gave up.“1.21 million going once, 1.21 million going twice, 1.2 million, sold!“Congratulations, Young Sect Master Orlando, for obtaining this piece of wood. I would like to thank you, Young Sect Master Orlando, on behalf of Sanctuary World, for your support!”Alex quickly handed over the number of spiritual stones and threw the wood into his storage ring. It was as if he had really bought a rotten piece of wood for 1.21 million spiritual stones.But once he turned around, he discreetly threw the wood into his mind palace
“Thirteen million!”“Fifteen million!”“Twenty million...”“Thirty million…”Not even a few rounds had passed, and the price soared up to fifty million.Alex scratched his head. Initially, he thought he had enough spiritual stones, but he didn’t expect that just an immortal’s sword would slap him hard in the face. He checked his storage bag and found that he had only about fifty million spiritual stones left. This also included the amount that his senior, Frostine Usoro, had given him. Otherwise, he would be a poor man.And the price was still soaring upward.“Senior, what’s wrong with you?” The lolita noticed Alex’s expression and leaned over to ask.“Uh… Junior, I suddenly realized that I don’t have enough spiritual stones on me…”“Oh, that’s okay. I have some here.” She casually pulled out a black crystal card. “Senior, this is the Dragon Merchant Spiritual Stone Card that my father gave me. Our Sun Shrine has superb status, and this card is directly linked to the Dragon Me
