Chapter 991 Rainbow Raiders!
Perhaps there were too many people sitting in the crowd and Ling Lan"s seat was somewhat at the side, Little Aihua wasn"t aware that Ling Lan was at the scene. She just saw countless strangers on their seats looking at her with gluttonous and greedy stares. She was so afraid that she had to curled up in a corner of the cage to just get some semblance of comfort.
She began to pinch her palm with great force, hoping that the pain could calm her down. At the same time, she was so terrified that the tears welling up in her eyes would begin to drip down her face, attracting more attention to herself. In the back of mind, she remembered that Jiang Hui had once told her that "crying doesn"t solve any problems, and only being calm would bring about hope".
Despite Little Aihua encouraging herself, she still had two tear drops run down her face uncontrollably and silently, because she suddenly realized the fact that she might never she see her family again.
"Aihua, don"t cry!"
Little Aihua heard a soft voice behind and she turned around to look who was talking to her.
It was a boy who was also put up for auction along with her. He was two years older than her. He comforted her after seeing Liu Aihua silently sob to herself in her cage.
He comforted because he was in the same situation as her, children who still had their memories intact. He wasn"t like the other children who had already forgotten who they were after having their minds wiped and becoming items for people to buy.
Perhaps it was because he seemed lonely or he saw himself in her. When he saw that there was a little girl who also had her memory intact, he couldn"t help but let down his guard and comfort her.
"Understood, Elder Brother Qiao!" Liu Aihua nodded thankfully towards the boy. Now, even the smallest of comforts, would make Liu Aihua"s heart calm down.
The auctioneer was very considerate and put up all of the detailed information of the auction items on auction screen, making it convenient for those attending the auction to look through and choose the items they were interested in.
"There are actually two t.i.tled domain realm masters? Not bad. Not bad." After seeing the auction list on the auction screen, a chubby old man beside President Tu showed an excited expression on his face.
Compared to other auction items, humans were considered the much safer purchase, as the auction venue had a special method that made it if the buyers were to die, those who were sold to them would also commit suicide, dying along with them. This was the reason why this part of the auction was popular. By purchasing children with a lot of potential or domain realm masters, not only would the buyers acquire a strong security force in the future, they wouldn"t have to worry about any privy eyes at the auction.
After the auctioneer declared the auction had begun, he began going through the serial numbers of the items one by one. Little Aihua"s serial number was at the end because she was added in at the very last moment. Not long after, the auctioneer reached the number of the boy who was comforting Little Aihua. The atmosphere in the auction house suddenly became intense and everyone jumped in to partic.i.p.ate in the bid for the boy.
This was because the boy had awakened a water element based innate talent and had awakened it for a long time already. Of course, the reason everyone had their eyes set on him was because he was only 12 years old. Additionally, his physical skills had actually reached the peak stage of refinement. The black market also determined that in one year he would definitely advance into Qi- Jin stage.
If things went as planned, advancing into Qi-Jin stage at 13 years old and in addition to his awakened innate talent of the mild-mannered water element, this boy would definitely reach the domain stage when he grew older. This was why he was so popular among the auction house attendees.
As the boy"s bidding price rose higher and higher, the boy"s expression became colder and colder. It was almost somewhat numb.
President Tu, who was calmly sitting beside Ling Lan, suddenly raised his brows and smirked. It seemed that there were others who didn"t like the black market other than Ling Lan.
Not long after, the highest bidding price had appeared in today"s auction. The auctioneer shouted out excitedly, "Buyer number 27 has bid 250 million coins. Is there anyone else? This is item will definitely become a domain realm master in the future. Going once…"
The auctioneer was trying to ignite the fighting spirit of other buyers. However, without a doubt, this price was already quite high for a future domain realm master. Many of the attendees were all sly old foxes or merchants themselves, and would of course not be provoked or disturbed by the auctioneer"s words.
The auctioneer excitedly and yet helplessly struck the mallet the third time, "Congratulations buyer number 27…"
Right at that moment, Ye Shao and Dibi Luya, who sat on the other side of President Tu, suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the stage.
"Stop right there!" Right as these words were said, many black market guards immediately jumped out from all sides in an attempt to intercept Ye Shao and Dibi Luya.
Bam! Bam! Ye Shao and Dibi Luya expanded their force of presence in an instant and sent those guards who were attempting to intercept them flying backwards.
The two of them on the other hand, didn"t change the direction of their movements in the slightest and quickly jumped up onto the stage. Their goal was that boy. Right as they were about to reach the boy, a strong mud wall suddenly appeared in front of the boy.
Seeing this, Ye Shao and Dibi Luya immediately released one fire dragon and one water dragon out from their hands to ruthlessly strike the mud wall.
Bang! A large explosion resounded through the auction house. The mud wall instantly cracked open from the force of the fire and water dragon.
Ye Shao then suddenly vanished from where stood. Right as he appeared behind the boy and was about grab him, a person clad in white had already stood in his way. At the same time, a black cloaked elder had also appeared in front of Dibi Luya.
"Who are you people? You actually dare to cause trouble in our Chaotic Lands?" A sharp and thin voice rang by their ears.
It turns out, the person clad in white who was standing in front of Ye Shao actually had heavy make-up on his face. He was actually a middle-aged man with his fingers out like a woman and had an effeminate voice.
Hearing this, Ye Shao was apologetic and replied, "I"m sorry. It"s only because we saw our people be forced to be auctioned off. We were angry and made a move impulsively. We"re not looking for trouble so I hope everyone can let us off."
"You think just saying sorry will resolve everything? Haha, is that what you think we in the Chaotic Lands do?" The black cloaked elder replied coldly. "Don"t think you can do whatever you want in the Chaotic Lands just because you"re both domain realm masters. Here, we have more than enough domain realm masters."
After these words were said, President Tu, who was already pale from seeing Ye Shao and Dibi Luya make a move, was now trembling. If it wasn"t for the fact that Ling Lan had helped him up, he might have been so scared that he would have fallen on the floor.
He didn"t think that two domain realm masters were hiding among the mercenary team he had hired. He especially didn"t think that they would cause trouble in the black market of the Chaotic Lands. He could feel his future being all grayed out. The Chaotic Lands would definitely make his merchant group take responsibility. A lighter punishment would be to refuse trading with them, while a larger punishment could possibly be to completely wipe out their entire merchant group.
After hearing the forceful words of their opponent, Ye Shao and Dibi Luya"s expression did not waver.
Ye Shao even shook his head and said coldly, "If that"s the case, then we want to know why our people would appear on your auction stage? Light and Dark Dragon are both very angry about this and decided to come here themselves to resolve this issue."
After the names "Light" and "Dark Dragon" were spoken, the other auction attendees, who originally thought Ye Shao and Dibi Luya were giving up their lives, couldn"t help but shudder in fear.
"You"re from the Rainbow Raiders?" The effeminate middle-aged man suddenly gasped after hearing those names.
"That"s right!" Ye Shao and Dibi Luya replied proudly.
Every world has its strongest individuals. In the Chaotic Lands, Frost Monarch, Hades and Ninja were the strongest. In the adventurer world, there were also seven kings that ruled that world.
Among these seven kings, the ones who no one dared to offend were Light and Dark Dragon from the allied adventurer group, the Rainbow Raiders. It was because they were like brothers to each other and they not would never be apart. One imperial level domain expert was already invincible. Then, two imperial level domain expert… Even if it was another imperial level domain expert, they still wouldn"t dare to offend these two people.
Thus, almost all parts of the Chaotic Lands would tremble after hearing the names of "Light" and "Dark Dragon".
