Divine Harem: My Sect of Heavenly Beauties

Chapter 35: The Auction (8)

Bai Chen narrowed his eyes as he slumped back on his sofa. Shen Yu's behaviour had weirded him out and he couldn't understand what he was doing. Why did free the slave he bought?

'Is it because he wants to control her mentally and since she's only a mortal, she wouldn't be able to harm him. Heh, what a scheming bastard. Just you wait, I'll show you your true place bastard.'

As for the light that broke the slave collar, Bai Chen was sure that it was from Ying Yue. According to him, Shen Yu was just a mortal. He had also sensed some abnormality from Ying Yue which strengthened his guesses.

If Shen Yu would have heard what Bai Chen was thinking, he would just thought one thing. This world's people like to overthink too much.

"Let's go, Young Master. It's time to meet with Sect Master, everything is ready and we even have Purple Magnetic Ore. Once we get back, we can proceed with our plan."

Elder Feng spoke, standing up from his place as he looked at the jade slip in his hand. He had just received a message saying that they needed to deliver Purple Magnetic Ore quickly.

Bai Chen nodded with excitement burning in his eyes. He clenched his fist and gave a last glance to Shen Yu's room.

'Enjoy while you can, I'll have whole Jade Province under me.'

He then shook his head as he followed Elder Feng outside the room. They then directly exited the city and flew towards the Seven Stars Sect.

In between, Bai Chen asked.

"Did father tell you anything about our plans? What are we going to do next?"

"Lay low. We can't attract attention for some time. But worry not, it's not like we'll sit ideally. Since we want to dominate the Jade Province, the destruction of Wind Flower Sect is necessary and we'll make sure to reduce their strength."

"How?"

"Heh, that's a secret. You'll known once everything is done."

Bai Chen sighed and nodded in understanding. They then flew towards their Seven Stars Sect.

Back in the Auction Hall, next items which were rare and precious treasure were being auctioned off. However, Shen Yu wasn't intrested in them. His purpose for coming to the Auction was completed and that's all that mattered.

He sat on his sofa, looking at the door in anticipation. Soon, it sprang open as Xiao Lan walked inside with a nervous face.

"You don't need to worry or be nervous. From this day forward, you're free and no one can enslave you. I give you this promise so you don't need to worry. You're free from today."

Seeing her trembling hand, Shen Yu sighed in pity and then spoke in confidence. He was really feeling sympathetic towards her as he looked at her body trembling in fear, her neck having deep scars left behind by the slave collar and many scars and bruises were all over her body which were hidden away by special make up.

His heart pained looking at her as she reminded him of his previous self, something he had been trying to bury. Those injuries were like him, when he was barely surviving.

He stood up and tried to put a warm smile to comfort Xiao Lan and went near her. Xiao Lan just looked at him silently and in curiosity, her eyes following his every moment.

Shen Yu smiled and patted Xiao Lan's head, turning off her thoughts as her mind went completely blank. She just stood there enjoying the pats. Nobody in her whole life had given her pats so they were a foreign thing for her. She couldn't properly understand what she was feeling but it was certainly positive so she let it be and enjoyed the pats.

"I-"

"Wait! Master!"

Shen Yu was going to say something but Ying Yue interrupted him. She walked close to him and said, in a low voice.

"Master, she has just now regained her freedom and I'm pretty sure her mind isn't completely stable. So, how about I show her around the town and buy her some clothes. These are too cheap and torn."

Shen Yu thought about Ying Yue's proposal and found it reasonable. After all, over loading her mind with information would only do harm. It was better if she breathed a fresh air and has a calm mind before they talked.

Thinking of all that and getting a encouraging look Lan Ming, Shen Yu nodded and said with a smile.

"Alright, you can go and buy the best dresses for her. Not only dresses but anything you two want. I have already places a good amount of Gold coins and a few Spirit Stones in your storage ring so you two should be fine."

Ying Yue nodded in excitement and checked her storage ring...which wasn't a good thing as she almost lost her footing seeing the treasure trove inside her storage ring.

There were big mountains of only Gold Coins and even spirit Stones. However, knowing Shen Yu, Ying Yue got over it quickly and dragged the confused Xiao Lan with her.

Xiao Lan didn't understand one thing until she was dragged outside by this strange girl with a mask and forced to go through many shops for dresses and other things. Along with that, Ying Yue tried her best to give Xiao Lan the information about Shen Yu and their sect.

Back in the Auction House, only Lan Ming and Shen Yu sat on the two sofa, looking at the stage.

"Should we go?"

Shen Yu asked and instantly got the response.

"The Auction is almost finished with only its last item presented now. So, let's see what it is and then we will go."

Shen Yu nodded and began to munch on the chips as he listened to Zhou Zun again bragging about the last item. Well, it was worth bragging about and deserved to be placed last in Auction.

"So, as many of you can sense it, yes this wooden branch of an unknown tree contains life force. So, who is going to bid for this."
