Douluo: The Second Lady of the Worship Hall, decisive in killing

Chapter 39 Do you have any opinion?

Looking at the staff members coming over, Ye Xi couldn't help but shook her head. She couldn't see the spirituality that a human being should have in the eyes of the staff members. All she could see was a deep servility.

It's like a puppet, only knowing how to complete the tasks assigned by the master.

"These staff members are all slaves who have been trained for a long time by the Tiandou Auction House."

"They are not only staff members at the auction, but also commodities with clear prices. But don't think about buying them. Doing so is not saving them."

Xue Qinghe watched the changes in Ye Xi's eyes and spoke in a calm voice.

"I know."

"And I have no intention of buying them."

Ye Xi nodded slightly and turned his gaze away from the staff.

After placing the tray in front of them, the staff member left and served a pot of tea to the guests in other black and red areas.

Ye Xi and Xue Qinghe turned their gazes towards the booth in front of them. The item being auctioned was a storage soul guide that was relatively precious to civilian soul masters.

After just watching for a while, Ye Xi felt a little bored, so he closed his eyes and began to rest.

Xue Qinghe looked at Ye Xi, just smiled and didn't say anything.

After about two hours, the auction at the booth was almost coming to an end. When the last item was pushed onto the booth, a faint crying sound came from the booth.

The red cloth of the auction item was lifted, and the first thing that came into view was a huge iron cage, and in the iron cage was locked a pretty girl about fifteen or sixteen years old.

The auction price of the girl was 10,000 gold soul coins. As soon as the auction price was announced, the guests around began bidding.

"Twenty thousand gold soul coins."

Xue Qinghe waved his hand and announced the bidding price.

Listening to Xue Qinghe's quotation of the price, Ye Xi looked at Xue Qinghe with his deep blue eyes.

"This one can be saved. There is no servility in her eyes."

Xue Qinghe noticed Ye Xi's gaze and explained softly.

"Thirty thousand gold soul coins!"

A defiant and arrogant voice sounded in the black area.

"Fifty thousand gold soul coins."

Ye Xi raised his hand and stated the bidding price.

"Sixty thousand gold soul coins!"

The arrogant voice sounded again.

"Seventy thousand gold soul coins."

Ye Xi calmly stated the bidding price.

Just after Ye Xi announced the price, the entire auction venue gradually fell into silence. The staff trained at the auction venue only had 100,000 gold soul coins.

It was obviously inappropriate to spend 70,000 gold soul coins to buy a person who had not received any training, so no one continued to raise the price.

Time passed slowly, and just as the staff was about to announce the ownership of the goods, the arrogant voice sounded again in the black area.

"Eighty thousand gold soul coins!"

Hearing the sound, Ye Xi raised his hand without any hesitation and increased the price to one hundred thousand.

In the black area, a young man stood up from his seat, took off the mask on his face, and looked in the direction of Ye Xi.

"I want to see who is so tired of living that he dares to compete with this prince!"

Arrogant voices continued to ring out in the auction hall.

"Hey, isn't this the Fourth Prince?"

"What's the matter with you?"

Ye Xi turned his head, and stared at the fourth prince Xue Beng with his azure eyes. Listening to that childish voice, looking at those azure eyes, and the silver hair scattered behind his back, Xue Beng felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he was for a moment.

Just when Xue Beng was about to say something, Ye Xi took off the mask on his face and stared at Xue Beng quietly.

Xue Qinghe and Ling Yuan also turned their eyes towards the avalanche at this time.

Being stared at by Ye Xi, Xue Qinghe and Ling Yuan, the arrogance on Xue Beng's face disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by a gentle smile.

"it's okay no problem."

"I've been sitting for too long and my legs are numb, so I stood up and moved around."

As Xue Beng said this, he silently put the mask back on and sat down again, as if it was not him who stood up just now.

Seeing this, Ye Xi just chuckled and didn't say anything else.

Xue Qinghe and Ling Yuan silently withdrew their gazes and did not speak again.

Soon, a staff member came to Ye Xi and others and took them to the back of the auction house to make payment.

Behind the auction hall was a room filled with various collections. After Ye Xi paid, the staff opened the iron cage and released the girl out.

"What's your name?"

Ye Xi looked at the girl in front of him and asked softly.

"My name is: Zhong Meng."

Zhong Meng looked at the three people in front of her, with some tear marks on her pretty face and panic and fear in her eyes.

Being bought as a commodity, she didn't know what her future fate would be.

"Zhong Meng, a nice name."

Ye Xi waved at Zhong Meng and said softly, "Come with us, you will be my maid from now on."

"Zhong Meng, I spent 100,000 gold soul coins to buy you. Be my maid. I will pay you 10 gold soul coins a month, and provide food and accommodation. When you pay back the 100,000 gold soul coins, you won't have to be a maid anymore, and I won't care where you go."

After he finished speaking, Ye Xi slowly turned around and followed Ling Yuan and Xue Qinghe out of the auction house.

"Yes, ma'am."

Zhong Meng looked at Ye Xi who was walking in front of him with gratitude. After agreeing, he quickly followed.

Although being a maid means losing freedom, it is much better than being a commodity to be bought and sold at an auction.

"Xiao Xi, are you planning to arrange for Zhong Meng to be a maid in the mansion?"

Xue Qinghe walked beside Ye Xi and asked softly.

"Ah."

"Such a big mansion, with only me, Tianyao, and Lingyuan living in it, it's still a bit lonely."

"It would be nice to recruit some maids to clean the mansion."

While Ye Xi was speaking, he also glanced at Zhong Meng who was following behind.

“It’s been a good life for her.”

"And when I first offered her the money, I was thinking of buying her back as a maid."

Xue Qinghe spoke softly, glancing at Zhong Meng behind him calmly.

After leaving the auction house, Ye Xi, Xue Qinghe, Ling Yuan and Zhong Meng walked towards the mansion.

After returning to the mansion, Ye Xi sat down in the hall of the mansion and looked at Zhong Meng who was standing in the hall with his deep blue eyes.

"Go buy some clothes and then find a room in the mansion to rest."

"Only be responsible for cleaning the mansion."

Ye Xi said as he took out a few gold soul coins from his storage bracelet and placed them on the table.
