Chapter 167 The "Flirty" Dragon and the Cold Beauty 9
Chu Jun had become accustomed to the dragon's whims and was too lazy to resist. He felt quite comfortable nestling in Mo Heng's arms.
But her mouth still felt uncomfortable, so she wouldn't let Long kiss it again.
There was still some time before the auction started, so Mo Heng consciously picked up the fruit plate on the coffee table and fed it to the beauty in his arms.
Chu Jun's long silver hair cascaded down Mo Heng's arms like a waterfall, his emerald green eyes crystal clear. Even in this place full of luxury and temptation, he still maintained a transcendent purity.
Chu Jun opened her thin lips slightly and took the fruit flesh handed to her by Mo Heng. This simple action seemed to be full of indescribable ambiguity between the two of them.
Mo Heng's eyes fell on Chu Yun's lips. Seeing him nibble on the fruit flesh, he felt an urge in his heart to take the half-bitten fruit and Chu Yun into his territory.
However, just as Mo Heng was about to lean closer, Chu Jun seemed to have already noticed his intention.
He stretched out a finger and gently pressed it against Mo Heng's forehead, pushing him away a little.
This action was both a rejection and a tease to Mo Heng, causing his heart to beat faster.
"Baby, are you so afraid of me?" Mo Heng's voice was a little hoarse, and there was a flash of aggression in his eyes.
Chu Jun naturally didn't feel the slightest bit of fear when facing such a Mo Heng. He said coldly, "Mr. Mo, patience is a virtue."
His voice was calm and cool, yet it seemed particularly alluring in this luxurious environment.
Mo Heng's fingers gently caressed Chu Yun's fingertips, feeling the subtle electric shock between them: "I never lack patience, baby. Can you be my spouse today?"
"No." Chu Jun refused mercilessly, breaking the ambiguous atmosphere between the two.
After Mo Heng got the answer, he did not try to harass Chu Jun anymore. He fed the beauty and waited for the auction to begin.
------
About an hour later, the originally noisy hall gradually became quiet, people took their seats one after another, and the long-awaited auction was finally about to begin.
Under the eager gaze of the audience, the auctioneer calmly entered the venue. He bowed gracefully to the guests on either side and to the VIPs in the second-floor box. The auctioneer possessed a distinguished demeanor, evidently one with considerable experience.
With such a high-level auctioneer present, it is obvious that the items at this auction are of great value.
Chu Jun had some more expectations.
"Welcome everyone to this extraordinary event, where every lot is the beginning of a legend. Tonight, you will have the opportunity to own them. Let's not wait any longer, the auction begins now!"
After a brief and wonderful opening speech, the auctioneer wasted no time and directly began the auction.
"First, let's take a look at the first lot, which is..."
Inside the private room, there was a brochure listing all the items for the auction, most of which were jewelry, rare magic potions, and magical props. Chu Yun and Mo Heng were mostly just curious and had no intention of participating in the auction.
On the contrary, the collection on the last page of the brochure seemed particularly mysterious. The auction house did not provide any pictures of the items, only some strange names such as "XX Cat" and "XX Dog".
Chu Jun was confused as he couldn't guess what the item was.
"Could it be a pet?" But he didn't think so. What kind of pet could be placed at the end?
In the early stages of the auction, most of the guests on the second floor remained calm and seemed to have no interest in the items, while the guests in the first-floor hall were extremely active.
They raised their paddles one after another, pushing up the price of the items again and again. The atmosphere was heated and tense.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are now presenting our fifteenth lot for this evening. It is not only a precious collectible, but also a key to ancient mystical powers. Allow me to introduce it: an ancient magic book, its pages yellowed, and every line of text contains the sediment of history.
Legend has it that this book records some long-lost forbidden spells, whose power is powerful and mysterious enough to drive any magician crazy. However, the extent of these forbidden spells remains a mystery, waiting for those who are destined to explore and discover them.
We do not know whether these spells can be reawakened, nor what miracles or disasters they will bring. But one thing is certain: whoever possesses this book will have a door to an unknown world.
So, for explorers and magicians seeking power and thirsting for knowledge, this is more than just a book; it's an opportunity, a chance that could change your destiny. Now, let's begin the bidding to see who will become the new owner of this ancient magic book."
As the auctioneer introduced the items, the atmosphere in the auction hall became more tense and exciting, and all eyes were focused on the ancient magic book.
Inside the box, Chu Yun asked Mo Heng, "Mr. Mo, is this forbidden spell real?"
"The real forbidden spell is not something that a weak race like humans can master." Mo Heng answered seriously.
"What about Mr. Mo?"
"Of course, I'm a dragon. I know almost all the forbidden spells in the world."
"So what can the most powerful one do?"
"It can even reverse time."
Even in the upper realm, time is something that few gods can control. Mortals who use spells to change time will surely have to pay a heavy price.
The two did not continue the topic of forbidden spells, because in the venue, the magic book had already been sold at a high price of 1000 million gold lists, and the next lot had been pushed onto the stage.
"Next, we're introducing the collection that will undoubtedly be everyone's ultimate goal tonight and the focal point of the entire auction—the 'Heart of the Stars'! This gem, its color like the deep ocean, shimmers with starlight. Cut with unparalleled craftsmanship, its every facet reflects a dazzling brilliance. Set in a gold rim and dotted with diamonds, it exudes unparalleled luxury. This gem, unique and one-of-a-kind, has existed for only a century. The starting price is 500 million. Bidding begins now!"
"600 million!"
"700 million!"
……
"1000 million!"
"2000 million!"
The guests in the lobby on the first floor seemed to be particularly optimistic about this gem, and its price rose very quickly. In just one minute, it had increased several times.
As the price continued to rise, the VIPs in the second-floor boxes finally began to get involved.
The guests on the first floor had already bid up the price to 1000 million, while the guests in a private room on the second floor doubled the price to 2000 million.
The entry price of 2000 million completely eliminated the idea of the guests on the first floor to continue participating in the auction.
Now, the focus of the auction has shifted to the VIPs on the second floor.
"3000."
"3500."
"3800."
"4000."
"4000 million. Is there any other distinguished guest willing to increase the price? Just add a little more, and this unparalleled work of art can become your private collection." The auctioneer looked around the box on the second floor.
The VIPs on the second floor were waiting for the people in the center box to participate in the auction.
These nobles received news that Count Darius, who was now favored by His Majesty, had also come to the auction, in that box.
Darius inherited the title of Earl at the age of 16. Not to mention that the Darius family itself is extremely powerful and has a deep foundation, and now with the favor of His Majesty, he has become the object of the nobles' desire to get close to him.
I don't know why this little earl, who has never shown his face in public, would participate in this auction.
Apart from this "Star of Stars", the nobles could not make any other guesses.
It's not possible that the young earl came here just for the finale of the auction...
