"You, you guys can go out first. I, I'll stay alone for a while. Please."

The girls found Chu He's blushing and heartbeating expression very interesting. They covered their mouths and giggled, then left the box.

"Well, little brother, if you need anything, just call me sister."

The cat demon that left last cast a wink at Chu He and licked his tongue.

Only when the door was closed did Chu He feel relieved.

"It was a close call. My twenty years of hard work was almost broken."

He hadn't completely let go of his worry yet when the sound of a symphony suddenly rang out behind him, scaring him so much that he fell to the ground.

Turning around and looking through the huge floor-to-ceiling window, I saw that a singing and dancing performance had already begun on the huge stage.

This means that today's auction is about to begin.

Chu He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, then took out a pocket watch and checked the time.

"...Is it really going to go smoothly? This guy called Li Muhan is gambling too much...I hope that this round I play won't make me lose everything."

Chapter 742: Adding the Stakes

The auction house in Luoyun City is not open every day.

Especially for the auction venue on the main stage, important product information will usually be announced a week in advance.

But today, there was something that no one expected.

Hope Blue Diamond.

Of course, that’s what humans call it.

For some aliens who have lived longer, the real name of this sapphire is Tear of the Moon Goddess.

He was filled with the pain of the birth of the Moon Goddess.

It is said that the Moon God has gathered all his evil thoughts into this gem, and no matter who this gem is given to, it will cause great disaster.

But even so, many aliens came here just to get this gem of doom.

It's not just humans who have a curiosity mentality, but also aliens.

So the starting price of this gem can be said to be the highest in the whole evening.

When the host in a brocade robe announced the last auction item, the guests who were not mentally prepared stood up from their chairs.

"Tears of the Moon Goddess...?"

"Isn't that a cursed gem? Have you seen it?"

"I haven't seen it. I heard that this gem was destroyed when the Moon Goddess disappeared."

Countless discussions echoed in the venue.

The auctioneer struck while the iron was hot and introduced the origin of the gem.

"There are many moon gods in this world, but if we are talking about the real moon god, it must be the real satellite above our heads. Before being observed by the world, the moon god projected its shadow into this world and witnessed the ups and downs of this world."

"But many people don't know that the Moon Goddess was not born with kindness, but with endless anger and curses."

"According to ancient legends... the Heart of the World forcibly dragged the power of the Moon Goddess to the earth, and then prevented it from returning to its homeland. The Moon Goddess's arrival was filled with pain and sorrow."

"He gathered all his anger and sorrow together, and used the moonlight to forge a dark blue gem."

"That is the Tears of the Moon Goddess."

"None of us know the name of the Moon God, but today, we are fortunate enough to see a microcosm of her power."

The auctioneer suddenly raised his hand, and then a blue star streaked across the night sky and landed on the auction table. It hung in the air, emitting its light and power unreservedly to the surroundings.

When it was officially unveiled in front of everyone, the entire audience was shocked and felt sincere admiration for this ray of light and the power it contained.

"Today! Our Luoyun City Special Management Bureau... um, the five-star chef, Mr. Chu He from the Steamed Egg Office provided us with this gem! Let us thank Chef Chu He!"

clap clap clap-

The entire audience stood in awe and applauded the VIP room on the highest floor above their heads. People in the other rooms also raised their glasses elegantly to Chu He at the window.

Chu He held the iced cola cup and raised it tremblingly.

I have already told the auctioneer the origin of this gem according to the information Li Muhan wrote down for me.

Although he knew through the realm of the fraudster that Li Muhan had indeed seen some future events through some means.

But this does not include the Tara tribe member named Xia Yue who came to deliver gems.

In other words, only if you know the girl well enough can you make such an inference about her behavior.

"It's okay to say it or not, this is the tacit understanding between husband and wife..." Chu He gulped down another sip of Coke.

"Tears of the Moon Goddess, starting price! 3000 million!"

The auction officially begins.

Then, a string of astronomical figures that Chu He could not even imagine kept coming out from various seats in the stands or boxes.

This is obviously a gem that will bring bad luck to people, why are these people so eager to get it...

Chu He was very curious.

"Three hundred and fifty million!"

The man in another box on the same floor as Chu He bid the highest price.

"Three hundred and fifty million at a time!" the auctioneer shouted to the audience.

"Three hundred and fifty million for the second time!!"

The man in the box pinched his moustache proudly, and it seemed that the others had no intention of continuing the competition.

"Three hundred and fifty million..."

"Five billion."

puff--

Chu He spat out a mouthful of Coke.

Is this some kind of mindless, trashy, and cool article?! In the eyes of these people, this money is just a number?! They don’t even consider paying taxes!?

Everyone's eyes turned to the entrance of the auction hall.

The woman who had called out five hundred million was walking towards the main stage.

The man in the box was originally very angry, he didn't expect that someone would openly challenge him.

But the moment he saw the woman, the man sat back in his chair.

His face became increasingly uglier.

Because the woman who was bidding the price was none other than Shimotsuki, the president of the Yunyin Chamber of Commerce.

"I know this is a bit unkind, Boss Zhu."

The woman walked to the main stage, looked up at the man in the box and said with a smile: "But I want this gem."

If it were someone else, Boss Zhu might not be convinced and would compete again.

But this man is Shimotsuki, the president of the Yunyin Chamber of Commerce, and he knows that he cannot compete with this woman.

What's more, this woman is backed by the Chinese Special Management Bureau.

This is such fucking bad luck.

Although he was cursing in his heart, the man still smiled awkwardly on the surface and bowed to Shuangyue with his fists clasped.

"Since it is the one that President Shimotsuki likes, I will not take it away from him. This gem is yours."

Shuangyue smiled and exhaled a puff of lavender smoke.

Just as she was about to announce the end of the auction, the pure white artificial moonlight above her head suddenly turned blood red.

Everyone looked up in confusion, and then saw a girl with short silver hair spread her wings and slowly descended from the light of the blood moon to the main stage.

"One billion~ We'll pay one billion~"

The silver-haired girl gently twirled her hair with her fingers and looked at Shimotsuki with a hint of provocation.

"...Blood race?"

Frost Moon frowned. The aura of this vampire seemed familiar to her. Unlike Elizabeth, the aura of this vampire was not that strong, as if some impurities were mixed in.

Chu He stared blankly at the silver-haired girl who came onto the stage, feeling a little dazed.

"Strange... Although she is also a vampire, she is not the same as the vampire described by Li Muhan."

"Looking for me, sir?"

A voice suddenly sounded from behind Chu He. He turned around suddenly and saw a tall and beautiful girl sitting on the sofa in the private room.

She looked at Chu He with an elegant and calm smile on her face, and then made a gesture to Chu He to come over.

Chu He swallowed, but still slowly walked towards the woman.

"Can you explain what you just said?"

After seeing Chu He sit down, the woman asked with a smile.

"I, I said...what?"

"You look so young, why do you have such a bad memory?" The woman covered her mouth and giggled, then turned to look at the boy and said.

"Then let me remind you, you just said... why that vampire was different from what Li Muhan described to you..."

After saying this, the smile on the woman's face disappeared, and her scarlet pupils were filled with coldness and murderous intent.

"So, can you explain to me, Mr. Chu He, what you mean by this, and what you and Li Muhan are up to?"

Chu He's sweat dripped from his forehead. He looked at the woman in front of him, feeling a fear that he was about to be torn apart.

This was by no means an illusion, but a warning given to him by the realm of the fraudster.

Be careful with this woman.

On the main stage, Xia Luer stood in front of Shuangyue.

Although the two have a big difference in body shape, their figures are even more different.

But the vast plain is still not afraid of the towering mountains.

She puffed out her chest, put her hands on her hips, looked up at the tall Shuangyue and said.

"Why! Can't I bid?"

"Of course, little sister, but can you really afford so much money?"

Shimotsuki said with a smile after taking a puff of cigarette.

"Hehe~ In this world, the thing our family lacks the least is probably money, but..."

"But what?"

"But, we won't pay for this."

Shimotsuki frowned slightly: "Why? Are you trying to snatch something from Yunyin Chamber of Commerce?"

"Tsk tsk tsk~" Xia Luer raised a finger and shook it.

"Weren't you the ones who stole the things? This gem was a token of love that my father gave to my mother. How come you guys stole it and put it up for auction? You are really the thief crying thief. You are so shameless."

There was a hint of anger on Shuangyue's face.

Although she knew that the origins of this vampire were not simple, she, Shuangyue, was not the kind of person who would remain silent even if someone stepped on her head or hit her in the face.

"Little sister, now that you've said this, I can't let you go. You'll soon learn the price anyone who is rude to the Yunyin Chamber of Commerce will pay."

"I couldn't ask for more~ Then~ President Shimotsuki..."

She leaned over to whisper in Shuangyue's ear.

"The last time, the commotion in Pingjing City wasn't big enough. Now, let's do it again, shall we?"

Shuangyue was stunned for a moment, and the next second the giant wings behind the girl flapped violently, and she rose into the air.
