Chapter 551: Customer Service? Arriving at the Auction House.

Chapter 551: Customer Service? Arriving at the Auction House.

Tatyana separated from the group and entered the central room where the formation lay.

The intricate runes carved with different materials surrounding a core in the middle glowed and moved as energy bent to fulfill the formation's functions.

When activated, Tatyana could see certain parts of the formation flare up with a brilliant red glow.

'Red and Gold. Although the color is not always defining, it has something to do with the cultivator. My runes are usually green, black, or white…'

'I heard from Yasenia that she managed to mix her blood essence during the ritual and affect it.'

Remembering that bit of information, her eyebrow twitched. 'To think she dared play tricks with a True Heavenly Saint, a young dragon that doesn't know she was grabbing the tooth of a predator that could gobble her up in one chomp.'

She traced the formation lines and thought. 'The inheritance changed from [Heaven's Truth Glass Heart Connection] to [Heaven's Truth Scarlet Crystal Heart Connection]. Even her constitution changed to the [Scarlet Heart's Prismatic Crystal Body]. Something I've never heard about. But after being close and feeling it, it doesn't lose to Yasenia's [Celestial Yin and Yang Body].'

Returning from her memories, she began analyzing the formation. Angel created This one entirely without her supervision, so she was quite curious.

'Hm… Not bad at all. The cutie is really talented, formation-wise. Honestly, she is slowly catching up to the Jiang Ying Yue all those years ago…'

Tatyana remembered those days when she chased after her current [Undead Empress] and smiled. 'I basically annoyed her so much that we ended up like a couple, hahaha.'

But those were memories from hundreds of thousands of years ago. Now, that woman was no more, and an Undead Summon and a completely different being stood in her stead.

She shook her head and sighed, returning her attention to the formation. "I almost have nothing to do. The little girl has done a very good job. Strength-wise, even low-level Dantian Spiritualization Realm cultivators would have a hard time breaching it without causing a commotion. However, it is still lacking against the people roaming the streets right now. Hmm, let's enhance it in these areas."

She took out her formation pen and a small bowl with formation ink. After sinking the pen and absorbing the ink, Tatyana began working.

Her strokes were neat and elegant, with flowing elegance that would mesmerize anyone. The green, black, and white colored lines and runes manifested and moved along the air, landing on a place of the formation and overriding it.

Tatyana felt a small signal coming from it, but she created a burst of energy, destroying it. 'Hm, a secretly hidden warning array in case someone tries to mess with the formation. The little girl didn't leave anything out, hahaha.'

'I need to tie these paths so that energy can flow smoothly, then that part near the core is too cramped and messy, so let's smooth it out. Hm, yes. The outer runes do not absorb enough energy, so let's enhance the energy absorption. Then…'

Tatyana's hand blurred as runes and lines flew around her in complex and intricate shapes, and the red and gold-colored formation gained black, green, and white colors.

With each second that passed, its aura increased and became denser as the energy around it surged toward it.

Meanwhile, Yasenia waited outside and acted as a shopkeeper for fun. She stood behind the register with a smile, and every person that came in front of her had a silly smile as they told her what they wanted to buy.

Cecile stood beside her silently, silently gazing at Yasenia's cheerfully wagging tail.

Her eyes couldn't help but bend. 'She is so cute when she is happy.'

Hanna stood at the side, and her niece accompanied her aunt.

"How is it working for the Matriarch, aunt?"

Hanna smirked. "Very nice. If it weren't because I'm deadly afraid of Lady Tatyana and Lady Cecile, I would try to stick to her and use these to tempt her."

The niece saw her voluptuous aunt pushing her chest forward and looked down at her modest chest. "Say, we are family. So, why am I less than half your size?"

Hanna looked at her niece's slender legs that ended in beautiful talons and pouted. "You have those plump legs and butt, and you are complaining? Lightning will hit you someday, niece."

While the two harpies spoke without a stopper, the lines for selling things were very disproportionate.

You could see the people who had haste going to the other lines where there was no one, but if they did not have a problem waiting, they all went to Yasenia's queue.

Hanna stopped speaking with her niece and laughed. "Matriarch, you are too popular!"

Yasenia smiled seductively and didn't deny it. "Is it even a surprise?"

Many gulps were heard.

A man stepped forward and stuttered. "Senior, I want to buy these herbs and needles."

Yasenia refocused and leaned forward a bit to look at the item in his hand while her hand held her hair from falling forward.

The counter was wide, so the gesture was not inappropriate.

The man buying almost had nasal bleeding as the cleavage was highlighted right before his eyes, and her beautiful face and pair of big white mountains were placed before his eyes.

Yasenia looked at a jade slip and sank her consciousness into it to look at the item list. Then, she smiled politely and answered. "It will be two hundred and three low-level Parus, sir."

The deep and alluring voice was enough to make the closest people's knees soften.

The man gave a mid-level Parus, worth one thousand low-level Parus, and stuttered. "Keep the change, Senior."

Yasenia smiled. "Thank you for your generosity, the customer. Please come back to our shop soon."

Seeing her smile because of the tip motivated the people behind him. And thus, all people left tips after him.

By the time Tatyana left the room, the queue had extended outside the shop.

Yasenia scanned the products with her gaze and asked for a price, to which she received triple, and flashed another smile to the customer.

Then, she turned around and asked. "Did you finish? How was it?"

Tatyana looked at the queue and approached. "What is happening, Matriarch?"

Cecile answered with a snort that had a bit of laughter in it. "She wanted to try being a cashier until you came back. This is the result."

Tatyana nodded sagely. "Understandable. I'm impressed there haven't been any mishaps, though. I expected a Young Master or two from appearing."

Cecile blinked. "Hm? Those?"

Tatyana followed Cecile's gaze and saw three people being lynched by a crowd.

Tatyana's lips twitched. "What happened?"

Cecile said as a matter of course. "They tried seducing Yasenia, and suddenly the crowd got riled up and carried them to the side to beat them up. Shouting things like. 'You dare look at the goddess with lecherous eyes?' or 'I'm going to cripple you so that your next generations are not born!' or 'I want her children, but who would dare to ask such a sacred being for children!? Seeing her smile is better than having sex with my loved one!' Or…"

"Okay, enough. I get the gist of it."

Tatyana stopped Cecile from uttering who knew how many barbarities those people said.

Yasenia looked at the queue and spoke apologetically. "Thank you all for your enthusiasm. I hope you keep choosing our Astral Sky Shops in the future and spread the word about it. However, now I must leave for the auction house."

"Of course, we will become regulars at the shop!"

"If I need anything, I will come here. Not only is the matriarch the most beautiful, but the items are splendid!"

Yasenia smiled and bowed once, sending a few people to the ground with the annihilating transient force of her bounce.

Many exclamations of loyalty were heard as Yasenia left the shop with her dears.

Tatyana laughed once outside. "You did it on purpose, right?"

Yasenia smirked. "I took advantage of it, but I indeed wanted to try. I just made the most out of it. Mouth-for-mouth discussion is excellent marketing, after all."

Cecile smiled thinly and made a rare joke. "If we want popularity, we should just wave a flag with Yasenia's photo."

Hanna commented seriously. "It would work."

The other three looked at Hanna, speechless.

They arrived at the [Brilliant Auction House] a few minutes later.

Yasenia couldn't help but be impressed. "So many people."

The vast streets reached more than two hundred meters wide, yet it felt crowded.

There were creatures of all sizes and hundreds of different races.

The longer you looked at the crowd outside the enormous building of the Brilliant Auction Hose, the more races one would discover.

Yasenia also saw a spot at the side where the giants stood tall, towering up to fifteen meters.

The races of the giants were also varied, but not as much. Yasenia could distinguish at a glance five of them.

Hanna spoke, using her energy to overcome the crowd's noise. "Carbira should be waiting for us at the entrance. These people are those without connections waiting to enter. The event lasts three days, and each day there are different quality items being sold. Well, Carbira will explain later in detail when we are inside."

Hanna looked at the crowd and frowned. "The problem is arriving there."

Yasenia smirked. "Don't worry. It's very easy."

Looking at the path straight toward the entrance, Yasenia's slit eyes focused as she used her Spiritual sense to distinguish mortals.

After seeing a lack of them, she nodded and released a silver of her bloodline pressure.

The Peak-level Ancient Beast bloodline was like a claw that gripped every beast human's heart and made them all turn around to look at her.

The aura was limited to about five meters around her, but when I touched those people, they all moved to the side with fear, allowing her to pass.

Those with weaker bloodlines directly kneeled with trembling bodies in her wake, ignoring if they were stepped on.

Since they weren't mortals, dying from trampling was basically impossible. So, it would cause discomfort at most.

Moreover, since it was a bloodline deterrent without soul influence, creating heart demons would be basically impossible.

The dragoness didn't mind as her face wearing a semi-transparent black veil, maintained her indifference.

Hanna looked on with awe as her body shivered with many emotions at the sight.

It felt like watching a True Monarch walking forward.

The ocean of people parted, and Yasenia calmly walked inside the building, followed by the other three.

Carbira spotted her, and her protruding eyes joyfully danced from side to side. "Good morning, Lady Yasenia. I've been waiting for you."

Yasenia relaxed her aura and smiled. "God's morning, Carbira. You look lovely today. Let's talk inside."

Carbira blushed and smiled shyly. She followed behind Yasenia with cheery steps.

Author: Give way, peasants. Your queen is walking!

Yasenia: *Rolls eyes* I'm not that arrogant.

Author: *Judging stare.*

The girls: *Judging Stare.*

Yasenia: …

Author: Anyway, let's summon our dear.

Angel: Can I do it today?

Author: Of course, little Angel. Go ahead with the chant I told you.

Yasenia: Chant?

Angel: Pretty little sister or pretty little brother. Little Angel is calling for you~. I summon you!

Yasenia: *Covers heart* My baby is so cute!

Evelyn: This is too much…

Arfa42: Here I am- What happened?

Author: Don't mind it, just Angel being cute.

Arfa42: Hm, I see. Then, everything is okay.

Andrea: No, I don't think- You know what, never mind.

Arfa42: So, I was here to ask Mirrory.

Mirrory: Hum, go ahead.

Arfa42: Does a treasure like you have an adult sentient from the beginning or not? If not, how does treasure like you get sentient and grow to adult sentient?

Mirrory: You are asking about the way for treasures to gain intelligence, right?

Arfa42: Yep.

Mirrory: Well, as everything that has thoughts, there is a need for a soul.

Mirrory: After a lot of use, if the energy is enough and many coincidences are met, creating an ego is an event that can happen to a treasure.

Mirrory: At first, the intelligence is at a baby's level. This goes for all treasures. There are exceptions, but they are so rare that saying they don't exist is barely considered a lie.

Arfa42: I see.

Mirrory: Anyway, the cultivator will quickly feel that their item has gained intelligence. Hence, the destiny of the treasure is entirely in that cultivation's hands. They might raise them bloodthirsty, apathetic, vengeful, happy-go-lucky, stupid, selfless…

Mirrory: They are basically a child that absorbs everything from the person they have awakened them.

Arfa42: They will never change?

Mirrory: Not at all. Change is possible. But for Sentient Items, it is a bit more difficult. Moreover, if they realize that they were mistreated, it can corrupt and become a cursed item or something similar.

Arfa42: Interesting.

Author: Is this all?

Arfa42: Yep.

Angel: Hum, bye-bye, then.

Author: Have a nice day.

The rest: See ya~.
