Chapter 25: Part-time Breeder

  "This is impossible, how could the city lord... damn it, I'm going to find the city lord and have a talk with him!"

  "You..."

  "The auction is about to begin, I don't have time to care who's in charge of Beidou City, anyway, this kid ruined my carriage and frightened my little Cui, give me a result immediately." Miss Guan also came to join the excitement.

  Suddenly, more and more people gathered around, time was getting shorter and shorter, and the auction seemed to be about to start.

  "Gu sister, I think they won't be able to figure it out for a while, and there's no need for us to watch them like monkeys. Why don't we leave first and come back after the auction is over?" The woman who seemed like a spy was making Wu Yue's skin crawl, and she just wanted to get away from this creepy place as soon as possible, heaven knows what this guy would do if he got desperate.

  "Sister said it!" Miss Guan nodded, then raised her head and said: "Fei Tian Qi Wei, you also heard, we'll go in first, and deal with it when we come out. Hmm, Xiao Cui is also handed over to you to take care of, I hope she's still the same spirited when I come out. If Xiao Cui has any grievances, I will ask you, humph! Let's go."

  "Alright, Miss Guan, you two, why don't you take Miss Guan inside?"

  That young flying guard didn't want to confront him like this either, the Ministry of Defense acknowledged that there were the most lunatics inside, if they made a fuss, they might not care about anything anymore. After sending away the person, he felt that this matter was indeed a bit tricky. If it got out of hand, these thugs would really make trouble. It wasn't the right time yet, but he had come to provoke this kid, and couldn't just let him off like that.

  Suddenly, Fei Tian Qi Wei's light flashed, and the corner of his mouth slowly curled up. "Alright, since Miss Guan said she wants to wait until after the auction is over to deal with this matter, then let's deal with it later. For now, you'll just have to take care of Miss Guan's Xiao Cui!"

  ——

  In the newly opened Beast Pasture in the backyard of Beidou Academy, Wu Yao was bored and stared at the small Cui in front of him. This Fengfeng Zhan with its wings spread out was at least as long as three people, and if a saddle was added to its back, it might not be a problem for two people to ride on it.

  Of course, this is Miss Guan's pet, and it's impossible for it to be put on a seat frame. The feathers on its back are also combed exceptionally luxuriously, and the top of its head has been trimmed into a cockscomb shape. It looks very proud and arrogant, looking at Wu Yue with disdain in her eyes, as if Wu Yue was just like the lowest servant in the Guan family. In someone's words, even a dog is better than you, let alone this great magical beast.

  There is no smoke without fire; the ancients were indeed truthful.

  Wu Ya didn't bother to reason with it, and directly dragged it up a small hill, climbed up a tree, and violently tied it up. From afar, he watched the large auction in the square below. Wu Ya wasn't worried that this pet would fly away; since this was a specially designated area for nobles to place their pets, there were naturally arrays in place to prevent escape - whether by digging underground or flying through the sky, no one could leave.

  Most pets that come in here are tied up, otherwise a pet war would be depressing.

  The Beidou Auction is initiated by the Beidou Academy and is the largest auction in the Beidou Province, held every year two days before the start of school. This year is no exception, but only nobles can participate, and only those from the Xuanwu Empire.

  Even so, there were still many people, packed tightly in the open square, surrounded by buildings on all sides, with boxes of various grades, just like an arena, with the center cleared and the surroundings serving as stands.

  And so, Wu Yao, who was temporarily acting as a feeder, could see it too.

  Chewing on a small blade of grass, sleeping on the slanting branches of a tree, no need to be on duty anymore, Wu Ya's comfort is unmatched, the only regret is that it's still too far away, if only there was a telescope.

  "Heh heh..."

  Xiao Cui let out a dissatisfied cry, its feathers standing on end, and even its beautiful crest was disheveled. Even if Wu Ya came to feed it the best food now, Xiao Cui would not be satisfied with him. It was a magical beast with a certain level of intelligence, and it remembered grudges.

  This is also the result of Fei Tian's careful consideration. Even if Guan Jiaojiao's mood improves after attending the auction, she will not forgive Wu Ya for seeing Xiao Cui like this. However, Wu Ya plans to leave as soon as he finishes what he needs to do. He believes that General Bingfang will not hand himself over because of a little maid from the Guan family. When the time comes, the account will have to be settled with Fei Tian's flying cavalry. The matter can only end in nothingness. Moreover, Wu Ya feels that things may not develop in a normal direction.

  Thinking of that fiery figure, Wu Ya always felt that something would definitely happen at this auction.

  "Hmph, this time that woman sneaked in has nothing to do with me, I've already done my job, and there's no need for me to point her out. When the time comes, the ones who will take responsibility will be Flying Heaven Rider Guard and Miss Guan. Maybe I'll even be a meritorious person at that time."

  Wu Ya's heart kept expecting something to happen, with great malice.

  "This is the 'Flying Fire Wheel' of Huo Lun's predecessor 500 years ago, a special Xuanbing with Molten Spirit as its instrument spirit. Although it has not yet awakened to spiritual intelligence, obtaining it and cultivating a younger generation is also a good choice."

  "This is 'Changhen Jian', back then..."

  At the auction, most of the bidders were Xuanbing, and many of them had spiritual energy. The prices they bid were also very high. Wu Yao took out the Xuanbing dictionary and opened to a blank page, feeling depressed in his heart. Shouldn't this page have an owner by now?

  Other crossers, one by one are all prodigal sons, a promise of thousands of gold, what super soldiers, what treasure all come, the auction house seats are also the highest level of boxes, but they can only stare blankly, their own family's worth compared to these mysterious soldiers' prices, not even a fraction of their spare change, don't know when this page will be able to collect its own soldiers.

  Sigh...

  The wind blew by, and suddenly the paper of Xuanbing's book was lifted up. Wu Ya was taken aback, touched it with his hand, flipped through it, and found that at some point, Xuanbing's book had an additional blank page, meaning there were now two blank pages.

  After some thought, Wu Ya suddenly understood and realized that it was because he had broken through the Palm Blade Master's limit.

  But there's no difference between one page and two pages anyway, neither of them can be engraved with Xuan Bing.

  "It's believed that many people have come for this item, the treasure key of Jin Qi Tian, the legendary strongest warrior. After a while, Wu Yao dozed off and then heard the auctioneer's voice again, carried by the wind, faintly audible, her heart skipped a beat. No wonder the top families like Dugu and Guan, whose influence can shake the entire continent with just one step, have sent people to attend. It turns out they're all here for this treasure key. Could that woman also be after it?"
