Rebirth of a Thousand Years: Entering the New Demonic World

Living thing?

Ying Li frowned. Could it be the human trafficking of demons again? But this organization is not...

But if you think about it carefully, everything that was put up for auction before was all treasures, including rare treasures, peerless magic weapons, and even high-quality imitations of "the Demon Lord's work".

Even if they are auctioning living things, they should not be simple slaves, right?

Romansur had not made any bids, as if he was waiting for something. The moment the item came on the stage, his interest was piqued.

"We just received this item today. Although it is a living creature, it is not a contracted summoned beast as everyone imagines, nor is it a slave. It is a piece of jade."

As she spoke, Aoni stretched out her delicate hands and gently lifted the red cloth covering the item.

A completely emerald green jade, lying in a black wooden box, appeared before everyone's eyes.

The auction at Magic Tower is very professional, with special close-up cameras placed around it, which magnify the image of the jade and project it onto a large screen, allowing many buyers to observe carefully.

"What a jade!"

Someone in the seat had already exclaimed.

"Yes, it is a good piece of jade. There is not a single impurity in it, and there is no trace of polishing on the surface. But why do you say it is a living thing?"

Among the buyers, there seemed to be a jade expert with sparse silver hair, an elderly man of a certain age. After seeing the jade, he couldn't help but comment on it.

"Yes! Miss, why is he alive?"

"It's obviously just a piece of stone! Can it talk? Or move? Don't play tricks on us!"

There were constant voices of doubt from the audience, most of whom did not believe what the other party said. Only a few people looked at it with a shrewd gleam in their eyes.

However, Oni on the stage smiled and said, "This is not an ordinary jade, but the remnant of the devil's heart. The starting price is 150 million magic coins!"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.

"Devil's Heart? Is this true?"

"At first glance, it's fake. People say all kinds of things these days."

"So expensive? You're robbing me!"

"Hey! If this thing is the remnant of the devil's heart, then I am still the reincarnation of the Dark Flame Demon Lord!"

"It's just a broken stone, I won't buy it!"

……

Listening to the noise in the field, Ying Li and other powerful demons fell silent. They did not join the ranks of those who were doubting and arguing.

Because they could see that, unlike the previous "sword forged by the Demon Lord", this one was the real thing! Especially Ying Li could personally feel the rich and pure magic aura, as well as the affinity between the Demon Heart and the Demon Clan in his blood, it was too obvious!

The Devil's Heart is indeed a living thing. Let alone 100 million, if it is the real Devil's Heart, it would be worthwhile to pay the entire continent to buy it, because it is the ancestor of magic power!

Aoni stood there patiently, waiting for the restlessness in the audience to gradually subside before continuing:

"Oh, I forgot to tell you that the seller also gave us a message saying that this piece of Devil's Heart Residue is extraordinary and was touched by the Star-Picking Demon Lord back then!"

When the name "Star-Picking Demon Lord" was uttered, the audience was like exploding, boiling with excitement, all kinds of voices coming one after another, even Roman Sur could not sit still, slowly picked up the remote control, and prepared to press the bidding button.

The elegant man sitting next to Romansur let out a light exclamation. He was not surprised at all, nor did he question it. His eyes were filled with countless colors.

This subtle change in breath naturally would not escape Ying Li's perception. Most people would never be as calm as he was when hearing the name of the Star-Picking Demon Lord Aliovihes.

In fact, Ying Li had been observing him since he and Roman Sur entered the room. The man had only the first-level cultivation of the Ghost King Realm, which was lower than many servants, but he could enter the box with the distinguished grand mage.

This man is not an ordinary demon tamer, and he may not even be from the demon world!

From the beginning of the auction until now, he has been keeping his eyes closed and resting, and he doesn't look like he is here to attend the auction at all.

It was not until Aoni said the names "Heart of the Devil" and "Star-Picking Demon Lord" that he opened his eyes and his gaze fell on the jade.

The moment he saw the jade, the emotions in his eyes changed continuously, and his lips moved slightly, as if he was secretly conveying a message to Romansur.

Ying Li saw all his movements, including what he said to Romansur, which Ying Li also heard clearly.

"You must buy it. My Protoss will thank you."

Star Spirits? What is that? Ying Li was greatly shocked. This was a name he had never heard of. Could it be...

But not everyone believes that this is the Heart of the Devil, and even less believes that it has anything to do with the Star-Picking Demon Lord. After all, thousand-year-old demons like Ying Li and Romansur are a minority, and even if the Star-Picking Demon Lord comes forward to prove it now, he will be considered as just sensationalism.

However, the old man who commented on the jade before seemed to know something about this, so he hurriedly asked: "This piece of jade does have signs of life, but where was it found? And who can prove its relationship with the Star-Picking Demon Lord? Miss Host, please explain a little."

Aoni is worthy of having hosted this auction for many years. She has a very good grasp of the emotional build-up. She did not throw out the details of the goods at the beginning, but whetted the appetite of buyers step by step.

"It is said that the Devil's Heart has a blood affinity with the demons, especially the higher the level of the demons, the more obvious this feeling is. Although we in the Demon Tower cannot reveal too much information about the seller, and current technology cannot identify the Devil's Heart, we in the Demon Tower can guarantee the reputation of this seller."

The old man was excited. He naturally believed in the guarantee of the world-class organization, the Magic Tower. They were not short of money, and would not use such means to deceive buyers, nor would they easily believe the seller's self-praise.

Almost everything brought on stage has a certain value. Even if it is fake, it will be given the value it deserves. For example, the "Sword of the Demon Lord", even if it was not made by a certain Demon Lord, must have a high cost and was made by a big shot in the forging world.

Seeing the restlessness on the field gradually subsided, Aoni smiled and said, "Now, the auction for this piece of Devil's Heart Residue officially begins!"

Everyone in the venue looked at each other, but no one made an offer. Although they saw that the item was extraordinary, they still doubted its authenticity, and the price was indeed a bit outrageous.

"One hundred and sixty million."

Roman Sur pressed the remote control, and his calm and powerful voice came through the speakers on the booth, surprising all the buyers in the audience.

"Aren't you afraid it's a fake, uncle?" Galantina teased, but it was actually a test from Ying Li.

Roman Sur shook his head silently, and the man beside him glared at Galantina with disgust and said:

"Little girl, don't say anything if you don't understand anything!"

"Haha~ OK OK!"

It seems that this man is indeed an expert, but among the various tribes from the outside world, apart from the Weilanti, there should be no major tribes that are familiar with the Heart of Devil?

"Oh, right! Uncle, you are the host...the guest, what's his name? My name is Galantina!"

"This..." Roman Sur looked at the other person hesitantly. The man snorted coldly and spat out two words:

"Ruowen."

"Oh~ what do you do?"

Galantina wanted to press on, but Ruowen didn't give her a good face and said angrily:

"I'm not familiar with you!"

At the auction, a few seconds after Roman Sur finished bidding, Tang Chuan thought about it and followed suit:

"I'll pay 200 million! This treasure must be obtained by our Tang Sect!"

Everyone in the room looked at Tang Chuan, who was sitting in the middle, with incredulous looks. Was this famous figure of the Tang Sect crazy?

The first offer was more than twice the reserve price!

Spending 200 million to buy a piece of jade with unclear origins, I really don't know whether I should admire his courage or his stupidity and wealth. Moreover, this bidding method is obviously intended to avoid the trouble of bidding and to make a final decision.

Those who ask for such quotes are just trying to be taken advantage of!

"That gentleman offered 200 million. Is there a higher price?"

Seeing that everyone was silent, Oni began the final questioning.

"Two hundred million at a time..."

"Two hundred million twice..."

Romansur pursed his lips and thought for a long time, then looked at Ruowen, who nodded firmly.

Roman Sur understood and continued to bid: "Two hundred and fifty million!"

"what?"

Tang Chuan glared at the VIP area. He wanted to know who was so bold as to snatch things from the Tang Clan. He refused to sit in the VIP area and did not wear a mask, just to let everyone see him and think before bidding.

Naturally, he never thought that the one confronting him at this time was the great magician.

"Five billion!"

Another voice as heavy as a mountain sounded, and everyone turned their heads in stunned surprise, only to see Yuchi Gong holding a sign and looking at them jokingly.

Tang Chuan was furious and shouted, "Do you have that much money? You're just yelling nonsense. Take out 500 million now and show it to me!"

Yuchi Gong laughed and said disapprovingly: "Are you my son or my grandson? Why do you care about me so much? I said 500 million is 500 million. Go ahead and get on stage if you don't have it. If not, I'll go get the goods!"

After saying that, he really stood up and walked towards the booth step by step. Aoni's face changed slightly and said:

"Sir, please take your seat first. If you win the bid, you can only take the goods after the auction ends. This has always been the rule."

Yuchi Gong sneered: "Ha! Rules are meant to be broken. I want to take him away now!"

With a "swish", the heavy object on his shoulder shed its outer layer of rags, and a sharp blade with a cold glow came out of its sheath. It was engraved with strange dragon patterns, decorated with bones everywhere, and emitted eerie ghost lights all over.

The auction suddenly became a mess. Many buyers fled to the side in panic to give the living Buddha room to perform. A group of security personnel and staff entered the venue with weapons in hand.

Aoni frowned slightly, and her voice gradually became cold:

"Sir. Although the Gray Region is chaotic, there are limits to what you can do. The Demon Tower is not something you can offend."

Tang Chuan also looked like he was enjoying the show, adding fuel to the fire:

"Haha~ You are worthy of being like this, you are fearless and even dare to destroy the magic tower! Miss Aoni, there is no need to indulge him, teach him a lesson!"

In the VIP area, Ying Li also felt helpless. He wanted to participate in a complete auction this time and didn't want to be messed up by others, but he didn't know that such a troublemaker would appear and ruin the show on the spot, which was even more excessive than himself.

"Honey! Should we get involved?" Galantina asked excitedly.

"Not yet? Um...but I don't want him to mess this place up, wait...got it!"

By the way, I entered the VIP area as a seller, but because of a small incident caused by Roman Sur, the staff was unable to find me to register the auction items.

Galantina pressed the call button, and a young staff member walked into the room tremblingly. He was frightened by the aura of the two rows of elf guards in the corridor outside.

According to Ying Li's instructions, Galantina cut off a thumb-sized piece from the Abyss Crystal and said to the staff:

"You forgot to get the goods from us before, right?"

The staff member looked at Roman Sur's back fearfully, then nodded to Galantina and whispered:

"S-Sorry, we..."

"It doesn't matter! It's not too late now. If you want to resolve the problem peacefully, take this thing over now and auction it on the spot!"

The man was stunned. Even Roman Sur looked at Galantina in surprise. What did this woman mean? Can you cut in line at an auction?

"Isn't this a bad idea? Miss Aoni will definitely not agree. I..."

"What do you mean? I told you guys, if you want to resolve it peacefully, do it now! You don't want to be unable to hold the auction because of that guy, do you?"

The staff member thought about it and decided that he still couldn't decide the matter, but he could go through a few steps, such as registering information.

Galantina no longer cared about privacy and told Romansur in front of him that this was Abyss Crystal and was sold for 100 million.

After the staff left, Roman Sur didn't say anything. Ruowen, who had a bad attitude, actually smiled and said to Galantina:

"Miss, I want to discuss a business with you."

"Hey?"

Galantina was surprised by the other party's change, but Ying Li secretly said, "Agree with him and listen to what he wants to talk about!"

"Miss, weren't you very talkative just now? Now is a good opportunity!" Ruowen smiled cunningly, with a look of a profiteer on her face.

"Ah? Oh, oh! Sure, let's talk. What do you want to talk about?"

"Let's talk about your Abyss Crystals. Compared to the stock you have here, you still have quite a lot, right?"

"Indeed, but I can't sell them all. I have a use for them. How much do you need? And how can I trust you? I don't want to do business with someone who comes from an unknown source. What if I get cheated by you and can't find you?"

Galantina asked two questions in a row. She stated her intention directly and directly, obviously trying to dig out the other person's background, but she also gave reasons that the other party could not refuse.

Ruowen smiled slightly, and he fell into deep thought for a moment...

At the same time, at the auction venue, Yuchi Gong laughed loudly and said to Aoni and the young staff member who just ran over:

"So there is such a treasure! What do I want from the Devil's Heart Residue? Well, I agree to sell this item first. I don't want the previous one. I'll still offer 500 million for this Abyss Crystal. Come on!"

Yuchi Gong had a keen sense of hearing and he heard all the whispered conversations of the staff members. He even loudly announced the existence of the Abyss Crystal to everyone, causing the whole audience to reach another climax.

Abyss Crystal, this is a real treasure, and it is very easy to distinguish the authenticity.

Unlike the Devil's Heart Residue, not only is its origin unknown and easily contains water, but also few people in the world are familiar with how to use it. You only know what the Devil's Heart means, but you are not from that era, so how can you know how to use it correctly?

However, Yuchi Gong is too powerful. His strength has increased fivefold in one breath. Who dares to take on him?

Tang Chuan also smiled and said to Yuchi Gong:

"Then you spent 500 million to buy this, so you probably don't have the money to buy the Devil's Heart Residue, right?"

Yuchi Gong did not hide it, nor did he make boasts to save face. He waved his hand and said:

"Yes! I don't want the remnants of the Devil's Heart anymore. If you want it, it's yours!"

Aoni took a deep breath and asked tentatively, "Then... will the auction continue? Sir, can you return to your seat and pick up the goods after it's over?"

"Ah? Didn't I make myself clear before? I want to take my things and leave now! Who agrees, who disagrees?"

Facing the aggressive Yuchi Gong, Aoni's previous nervousness suddenly disappeared, and she smiled:

"I'm sorry, the seller objects. The distinguished guest has ordered that he can only leave after the auction is over and the items he has sold are finished!"
