Chapter 1076B – We’ll Meet Again

Things afterwards proceeded smoothly. Old Fox caught up and paid with his demon crystal card. The two nine-tailed demon fox children jogged to Mian Ya’s side and grabbed onto her hands, an anxious and expectant look in their eyes.

Strong Pig, whose head had been smashed in and left dazed by the meat pie that fell from the skies, hurried over and said that the collars were gifts and there was no need to be polite about it. What nonsense, for such a great customer, for such a bold and lavish guest, it wasn’t overdoing it even if he fell to his knees!

His fellow slave trader colleagues were so jealous that they had rabbit eyes…haha, after today’s bidding he was going to become famous!

Qin Yu nodded. He turned and said, “Let’s go.”

Old Fox followed from behind. He looked at the two children and then at Qin Yu before sighing inwardly.

Sure enough, birds of a feather flock together. If he was together with Miss Feature, how could he not have his own methods?

When it came to spending demon crystals, one mountain was more than enough…these were just two little nine-tailed demon fox children. Even if they had a bit of potential, how could they be valued at 200 million demon crystals?

He couldn’t figure it out. He really couldn’t figure it out.

His heart ached…a little. After all, he had worked hard throughout his life and only had enough demon crystals to spend 200 million a few times.

This was nearly half his savings.

But looking at things from a different angle, it was good that Qin Yu was willing to spend his demon crystals. Judging from the temperament he displayed so far, the more demon crystals Qin Yu spent, the more he would remember him.

Later, with just a thought, he might give him an unexpected repayment.

As Old Fox thought of this, his heart lifted and his confusion and heartache vanished.

He glanced around. Should he urge His Excellency Qin Yu to stroll around a bit more and buy a few additional slaves that were pleasing to the eye?

Because of this delay, by the time they returned to the main venue the auction had entered its final act. At this time, everyone was competing for a demonic weapon that an Abyssal Demon King once used. It was a powerful weapon that caused parties from all around to compete for it.

Feature had no interest in this. She didn’t even intend on bidding. She looked at Qin Yu and asked, “The feeling of spending a great deal of demon crystals isn’t bad, right?”

Qin Yu sat down. He thought for a moment and nodded. When things didn’t involve his own secrets, it was better to be an honest person.

Feature curled her lips and looked at the two children. Her eyes sparkled and she said, “Your judgment is good. Those demon crystals were worth it…we’ll talk about this later. Let’s watch the auction first.”

Qin Yu was curious why Feature sent him a sound transmission at the end, telling him to deliberately anger Spring Breeze 13th Madame. But this wasn’t the place to talk about such things. He nodded and leaned back, closing his eyes and no longer speaking.

It was just that Feature, who hadn’t been able to use any strength before, was unexpectedly able to send him a sound transmission now…had she adapted to the rules of the abyss, or was there some other hidden secret he didn’t know about?

…

Netherworld Station’s auction continued for the entire evening. As the auction process was adjusted accordingly, there was even a chance it would only finish at noon the next day.

This wasn’t a burden to the vigorous demon race. But Feature didn’t seem to be in good spirits; she often yawned out loud.

After sitting for some time and seeing her eyelids struggling to stay up, Qin Yu frowned and said, “If you’re feeling tired, let’s leave.”

Feature nodded weakly. “Okay. Let’s go back and sleep.”

Old Fox, Black Astral, and the others had no opinion of this. They stood up and left.

The demon woman serving them revealed an anxious expression. She hurriedly followed them and said, “Honored guests, the final treasures to be auctioned off haven’t entered the stage yet. If you leave now it would be a pity.”

The guests she was responsible for were already listed as VIP guests, yet they wanted to leave before the climax started.

This matter had nothing to do with her. Anyone with a brain would know this wasn’t something she could control.

But the truth was the truth. This would inevitably affect her, even reducing the reward she would receive after the auction.

The demon woman was certainly distressed. She constantly looked up at Qin Yu with a pleading expression, hoping that he would stop. But, nothing she did worked. Qin Yu didn’t even glance at her.

The demon woman felt bitter. After determining that she couldn’t change this, she quickly reported it through her internal communication device.

Before Qin Yu’s group left, several Netherworld Station demons hurried over. A demon woman quickly introduced herself. They were all high-level workers of Netherworld Station.

“I thank you for patronizing our Netherworld Station. This small gift is an expression of our respect and I ask that you accept it.” One of the demons said. His attitude was warm like a gentle breeze.

Another demon explained, “There are two tokens inside that represent your VIP status. If you hold this, from here on out you will have no need to purchase an admission ticket and can directly enter the infield.”

Seeing Feature in low spirits, Qin Yu nodded. Old Fox stepped forward to accept the gift. Both sides exchanged a few words before they parted ways.

But before they could continue leaving, someone caught up to them and asked them to wait for the time being.

“I greet Miss Feature. My young master is still participating in the auction so he cannot personally send you out. He asked me to give you this.” The demon guard respectfully bowed and offered a jade tube with both hands.

It was filled with crimson blood. Although it wasn’t filled to the brim, it was half-full.

Feature’s face flushed red and she hid her weariness. She looked at it and said, “This is…?”

The demon guard said, “The stone ogre’s blood. My young master said he only needs half. The remaining half is given to miss as a gift.”

As he spoke, he couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. The young master was worthy of being the young master, his displays of wealth were inconceivable. Although this half-tube of blood looked common, it was worth 100 million demon crystals.

To casually gift something so valuable, even his hands shook as he held the tube. He was afraid that he would accidentally drop the jade tube and break it. If that happened, even if he were to be skinned alive and turned into oil, he wouldn’t even be able to recoup 1% of the losses.

Fortunately, Feature didn’t leave him scared for too long. After thinking about it, she nodded and said, “Tell your young master that the blood of a stone ogre is indeed useful to me. I will accept it.”

Black Astral stepped forward and received the jade tube.

The demon guard relaxed. He bowed and said, “Yes. Then I shall go back and report.”

He turned and quickly walked away.

Seeing his back fade away, Feature raised an eyebrow. She looked at Qin Yu and said, “Did you see that? This is called charm!”

Qin Yu was expressionless. He lightly said, “I have no idea if that is charm or not, but if you insist on enduring like this, there will definitely be a problem.”

Feature curled her lips. Without saying anything else, she stretched her waist and turned around, “Let’s go! We’re going to head back and get a good night’s sleep!”

The energetic Feature immediately became exhausted when she left Netherworld Station. She looked like she would fall over at any time as she walked.

Qin Yu glanced at her and then turned around to give Old Fox an order. A carriage was soon found and Feature was lifted into it. Just as Qin Yu sat down, she slumped and rested her head against him, mumbling that she was tired and would rest first.

Just as she finished speaking, there wasn’t even a second’s pause before the even sounds of sleeping came from her nose and mouth.

She unexpectedly fell asleep like this…could it be that reading all those random books in the morning had caused her mind to become worn out? But with what Feature had shown so far, something so minor shouldn’t have tired her out so much.

He subconsciously thought back to how Feature had fallen unconscious without warning twice before. He furrowed his eyebrows together, worry in his eyes.

Just what was this woman hiding?

Ten days from now…why did she want to wait ten days to tell him everything?

Did this period of time hold some special significance to her?

After thinking about it for a long time and obtaining nothing, Qin Yu could only push these thoughts to the side. He looked at Feature and her pale face. After a brief hesitation, he didn’t push her to the side.

The carriage continued peacefully. Black Astral and Old Fox glanced at each other from the outside, and they could see the worry in each other’s eyes.

Miss Feature’s condition didn’t seem to be right. But where exactly there was a problem, neither of them knew.

Their thoughts raced. At the same time, they both thought of the Abyssal Demon Dragon Elder Ao Fa. Could this be related to him?

Should they remind His Excellency Qin Yu?

But with His Excellency’s strength in addition to his relationship with Miss Feature, he should be much more knowledgeable about this than them.

Shadowless Demon was like a genuine shadow. He shuttled back and forth through the night-shrouded Five Origin City, cleaning up demon after demon that tried to approach.

Feature and Qin Yu had been in the limelight at Netherworld Station, boldly throwing around hundreds of millions of demon crystals. This would naturally attract covetous eyes.

People with many demon crystals were mostly strong and had deep backgrounds. This was enough to scare away most demons with ill intentions.

But that didn’t mean they could rest without worries. After all, in the abyss, a popular phrase was ‘rush headlong into danger’.

Wealth moved the hearts of the people…this was a truth no matter where one was!

But these people were doomed to kick an iron sheet. No…to be more accurate, it was an incomparably tall mountain of iron. As long as they struck it, they were bound to break their heads open and die on the spot. They could give up any thought of retreating alive.

Shadowless Demon was shrouded beneath his black robes. Only his eyes were open, cold and without fluctuation. He was like a god of death that walked amidst the night, ruthlessly harvesting life.

Moments later, they smoothly arrived at the inn.
