The Dao Yu family cultivators, who had been criticized by Hu Lian, glanced up at Hu Lian and began whispering among themselves, occasionally stealing glances at Hu Lian before starting to argue loudly and quietly.

Su Yan glanced at Hu Lian, then at the Dao Yu family girl who seemed to be plotting something, a row of black lines appearing on his forehead, and asked:

"By the way, didn't we just talk about auctions? What kind of auctions were we talking about?"

Su Yan had attended several auctions before with Fox Mom and Dragon Dad, mostly as part of the fun and to enjoy delicious food and pastries.

In the cultivation world, auctions are essentially promotional events. For example, if there is an accumulation of pawned items in the shops of the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion in various regions, they will hold a large-scale promotion and auction based on the value of the stored items.

Auctions are generally categorized into three levels, from low to high: monthly auctions, annual auctions, and private auctions.

Monthly and annual auctions are like supermarket discount promotions in Su Yan's acquaintance. In other words, you can only encounter some rare items at private appreciation events. At other times, you can just go to the auction to join in the fun and eat pastries.

Of course, there are exceptions to auctions. When the value of an item is so high that it is beyond the reach of 99.9% of cultivators in the cultivation world, a special auction will be held, hosted by a cultivator with a powerful background. Such items are difficult to measure in monetary terms and are basically places for bartering or exchanging favors.

"It's just a stolen goods auction; some things in the cultivation world are explicitly prohibited from being sold."

Hu Lian said nonchalantly, "To put it simply, a group of people slaughtered the entire Nightmare Town Sect. They had no way to sell or monetize most of the items inside, so they secretly contacted us unscrupulous demon cultivators."

"I've come here to see if anyone has cultivated the Nightmare Suppression technique and mutated their physical body. As you know, we in the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers raise Gu worms, and some of these worms require corpses as their hatching nests. Among all living beings, those who have cultivated the Nightmare Suppression technique have the most mutated bodies, and the Gu worms hatched from them are exceptionally strong."

"If I come across any, I'll buy a few hundred of them. If I don't use them all, I can sell them to my fellow disciples. Ideally, I could buy a thousand or two. That way, I can make a fortune by profiting from the price difference."

The stolen goods auction doesn't sell any legitimate items; everything inside comes from the Nightmare Town Cult.

The bodies of those killed by the Nightmare Suppression could naturally be traded as goods. Sects like the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers, which raise Gu worms, liked to buy these bodies, which were overflowing with spiritual energy and even deformed, to feed their Gu worms.

The Dao Yu family cultivators may have come here because they need something, but of course, it cannot be ruled out that they are really here to sign up for the Mermaid Winter Festival.

Dao Yu family cultivators are capable of anything on a whim, including but not limited to getting into arguments with someone of the same sex in alleyways, or licking the mutated corpse of a Nightmare Suppressor to taste its flavor.

The Dao Yu family cultivators are free by nature and do not accept any definition from any living being in the cultivation world. Their sect leader even suddenly had a whim and felt that his sect's name was so tacky that he took down the plaque, picked up a brush, and wrote "Dao Yu Family" on the spot where the plaque was. Then, Lingxiang Temple changed its name on the spot.

The cultivators in the cultivation world were dumbfounded, but the Dao Yu family did not react at all, and naturally accepted that their Dao Tong had changed his name overnight.

The sect's name can be changed as it pleases, but the sect leader certainly has that power. As long as it doesn't affect his carefree and comfortable life, he can do whatever he wants.

It was supposed to be updated before midnight.

But my friend, all smiles, ran to my door with groceries, knocked, and said, "Time to cook a midnight snack!"

The person had already arrived at the door, so I had no choice but to stop writing to entertain them. We then went to the kitchen together and worked until 1 a.m. After eating and washing the dishes, I rushed back to continue updating.

By the way, does anyone remember what the monthly pass data was around midnight?

Because of my friend's rebellion, I forgot to check before noon, and I only remember that there were more than 1,200 votes in the afternoon.

Chapter 389 To avoid any unforeseen complications, let's go!

"What are you doing?"

Jiao Nanwu, who arrived late from the Merfolk territory, came to the teahouse in the coastal market and immediately saw Su Yan and Hu Lian beside him.

Su Yan and Hu Lian were chatting idly, drinking salted coconut juice and talking about the auction of stolen goods being held in the coastal city. The auction of stolen goods was not something that could be done in the open and was not something that just any cultivator could access.

Su Yan didn't quite understand, so Hu Lian explained it to him with a smile. Jiao Nanwu, who came in from the teahouse entrance, didn't hear their conversation, but saw a female cultivator wearing a white off-shoulder dress, with most of her chest exposed, pressing down on Su Yan's shoulder.

Can I come with you?

Jiao Nanwu didn't think much of it; she was just curious about what the two were talking about and why they were so close together so mysteriously: "Where's Auntie?"

"Want to come along?"

Hu Lian looked at the approaching merman girl, then glanced at Su Yan beside him, and said with a strange expression:

"It's not that I can't bring you along, it's just that do you really know what we're going to do later?"

Although the two are sitting here drinking tea, Hu Lian is planning to take Su Yan to the inn later.

Although the effects of the fertility pill had worn off, with a bewildered and immature Yazi standing before him, Hu Lian had no reason to let him leave. As the saying goes, once there is one, there will be two, three, four, five, and six. When spring comes next year, Hu Lian can come back to Su Yan to get the seed again.

So, when the little mermaid, who seemed to be Su Yan's friend, asked if he could come along, Hu Lian's face showed a strange expression.

"What are you planning to do?" Jiao Nanwu looked at Hu Lian, puzzled, then looked at Su Yan and asked, "By the way, where did Auntie go? Mother specifically asked me to inform the merfolk that they are hosting a banquet at the post station tonight. You and Auntie must do us the honor of attending and having a couple of drinks."

The banquet hosted by the Merfolk was mainly to entertain Auntie and Su Yan. The former had helped the Merfolk, while the latter was a heavyweight guest at the Winter Festival.

Of course, Su Yan and his group weren't the only ones at the banquet. Other cultivators brought back by the merfolk girls would also be attending, allowing the guests to get to know the merfolk girls.

"It seems my aunt went to the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion to buy something? She should be back soon."

Upon hearing this, Su Yan immediately nodded in agreement, agreeing to let Jiao Nanwu attend the banquet that evening.

Are you attending the dinner party?

Hu Lian glanced at the sky outside, then at Su Yan and Jiao Nanwu, and a sense of unease suddenly arose in her heart, a feeling that things might get complicated if things dragged on.

She knew that the little Yazi in front of her was incredibly fast at running away. He would often disappear right under her nose if she wasn't careful. Last time, even though she, a cultivator at the Earth Immortal Realm, had grabbed Su Yan's legs, and Bai Fu and Jiu Ying had each locked Su Yan's arms, and Cheng Huang had circled around and locked his neck, Su Yan still managed to slip away.

That happened in bed. If the scene were changed to a banquet hall with many people and many things going on, who knows what unexpected things might happen that would force Ya Zi to run away from him?

Thinking of this, Hu Lian took Su Yan's hand and placed his hand on Jiao Nanwu's shoulder, saying:

"It's still early before the banquet. To avoid any unforeseen problems, let's take advantage of this time and have a bath together at the inn where I'm staying!"

"what?"

The three people sitting in the teahouse vanished in a streak of black light at Su Yan's questioning voice.

………………

When Su Yan reappeared, the surrounding scenery had changed drastically. He had gone from the bustling teahouse to a large house with all the necessary furniture and decorations, and the sound of flowing water could be faintly heard.

Su Yan sat on the left side of the bed, Hu Lian sat in the middle of the bed, and Jiao Nanwu, who looked completely bewildered, sat on the right side.

"We're getting down to business now, understand? If not, there's fruit to eat in the yard outside."

Having returned home using a teleportation technique, Hu Lian sat up from the bed, untied his waistband and threw it onto a clothes rack. With a gentle shake, his white robe fell off, revealing a pair of underwear with a distinct Western Region style underneath.

"Of course I understand!"

Upon seeing Tiger's stance, Samena Mist, who had been in a daze, suddenly realized what was happening and said:

"We mermaids are all educated. All I need to do is lie on the bed, hug my chest with my hands, and use my feet to restrain the hardworking male beasts, preventing them from cheating and not selling their offspring to us mermaids!"

With a confident expression, Jiao Nanwu responded to Hu Lian's mockery of her naivety.

"Something with a strong sense of history."

Upon hearing this, Hu Lian silently felt a few black lines appear above his head. There was nothing wrong with what the merfolk taught, after all, they were sea beasts with a breeding season, and they wouldn't go into heat unless under specific circumstances or when taking medicine.

Merfolk reproduce for the purpose of having offspring, so the things they teach their family members are primarily practical.

We won't teach anything fancy or complicated; if you want to know those things, you have to figure them out yourself.

"Isn't it inappropriate to do this in broad daylight?"

Hu Lian led Su Yan towards the side room, and after passing through the covered corridor, they arrived at the bathhouse. Hu Lian's inn was located on the edge of the Red Desert. Although there were no outsiders or surveillance around, Su Yan, who had changed his clothes and was wearing a towel wrapped around his waist, still looked at Hu Lian and Jiao Nanwu somewhat awkwardly and said:

"How about we talk about it tonight?"

Hu Lian and Jiao Nanwu were already in the bath. Hu Lian was wearing a Western Region-style tube top and briefs, while Nanwu had taken off her coat and shoes and socks. Her body naturally revealed her strong tail when she was soaking in the water. Instead of the blue bellyband from the Xia Yu era, she was wearing a seashell-made bra that Su Yan had never seen before.

It consists of two shiny seashells, draped with a flat, highly elastic and resilient belt.

Watched by Hu Lian and Jiao Nanwu, Su Yan, who was standing on the shore and had not gone into the bath, suddenly felt a little embarrassed for some reason.

Perhaps it's because she's too familiar with Sister Nanwu?

Su Yan was perfectly aware that she wasn't feeling shy or embarrassed, but rather extremely awkward.

"Young Master Su, come and have a drink! I've drugged this wine."

When Hu Lian saw Su Yan come out of the dressing room, she was stunned for a moment. She thought that Su Yan would revert to the young man she first met. She did not expect that Su Yan still maintained the form of a young man.

But those are all minor details. Hu Lian is simply lusting after Su Yan's bloodline. As long as the appearance is passable, he doesn't care about the form.

Besides, Su Yan is so cute and handsome. Even without the blessing of the Ya Zi bloodline, as long as he comes to her side and calls her "Big Sister" in a clear voice, Hu Lian would still be willing to invite him to the guest room for two bowls of warm almond milk, just because of Su Yan's good looks.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 390 Stop fighting! My home is gone!

Come here.

Soaking in the bathtub next to the dormitory, Hu Lian looked relaxed and not awkward at all. He looked at the two little ones beside him, a mermaid and a Ya Zi, who looked at each other and were a little uneasy. They obviously did not have any rich experience of ascending to heaven in broad daylight.

Upon seeing Su Yan's reaction, three black lines gradually appeared on Hu Lian's head.

Being with a handsome little beast like Su Yan would actually be better suited to being alone in a quiet room, chatting and laughing about ethical matters, teasing the little beast until its cheeks turn red and it looks at you with uncontrollable passion.

Hu Lian had originally planned to do just that, intending to spend two hours of free time chatting about romance and nature with Su Yan under the same roof.

However, plans don't always go as expected. The time that should have been spent alone with the two of them was now interrupted by the presence of a merman. The quiet trip they had envisioned was clearly not going to happen. Although they themselves didn't mind, the two inexperienced and awkward young people were too embarrassed to relax.

These things, if not let go of, will never be resolved. Tiger Companion mentally grumbled, then deliberately stepped aside to let Samena Mist sit next to him, complaining:

"Weren't you just daring to argue with me, vying for the male beast's mating rights? How come you can't even speak properly now that your coat has been removed? It's not like I'm pulling out your sharp teeth."

Hu Lian and Jiao Nanwu switched places, allowing Nanwu and Su Yan to sit close together.

"Um," Jiao Nanwu stammered for a while before finally saying, "The books don't teach how to go into the water, so I don't know where to begin."

"I knew your methods were outdated," Hu Lian said, instructing Jiao Nanwu, "You two, now close your eyes, hold hands, face each other, and feel where each other's faces are."

"Don't worry about kissing the wrong spot, just kiss wherever you happen to be kissing."

Yes, that's it.

"Get closer, let's hug each other."

Hu Lian sat cross-legged on the shore, instructing Jiao Nanwu on what to do, and secretly flicked his tail to gently stroke the merman's back and thighs, giving them a little help.

When the demon race reproduces, the most important thing is not whether the male beast is willing or not, but whether the female beast is willing. As long as the female beast enters the state, she will emit a special fragrance that is seductive and alluring. As long as the male beast does not feel any psychological pressure, he will automatically...

Because of Jiao Nanwu's obstruction, Hu Lian's charm was all directed at the blind man, and she was unable to guide Su Yan to activate his Dragon Might mode. With a leap, he rode on his own back and bit his own neck, expressing his intention to conquer and declare his sovereignty.

"Ok?"

Hu Lian, who was sitting in line to the side, put down the wine cup containing the pill in his hand, subconsciously looked up and released his divine sense to the outside of the bamboo forest barrier, where he discovered three ghostly figures dressed in white robes and carrying wooden buckets.

Hu Lian put down his wine cup, stretched his tail into the bamboo forest, broke off a section of iron-skinned bamboo about three fingers thick, waved it in his hand to feel its texture, and then leaped up and quietly circled around behind. When the opportunity arose, he swept the backsides of the three Dao Yu family cultivators hard.
