Chapter 47: You Mie, Senior Sister
Chapter 47: You Mie, Senior Sister
......
"Did you not hear that this young master from the Rising Dragons Sect is looking to acquire this Spiritual Stone??" The young man from VIP booth number two shouted.
"I did." Azmodeus began with an apathetic tone.
"Then you should-"
"But I don't care," Azmodeus interjected with a voice bereft of emotion as he waited for the hostess to announce the results.
"3... 2... 1... And the distinguished guest from VIP booth 1 has obtained the Lowest-Ranked Spiritual Stone!" The hostess announced with an overjoyed expression.
After all, she would obtain quite a large commission from a purchase like this one!
She was going to throw a slightly flirtatious and grateful look towards the boy in VIP booth number one, but when she saw the death glare of the terrifying girl sitting beside him, she changed her mind and went right back to announcing the second item to be put on stage.
"Hmm...?" Azmodeus raised an eyebrow as he slightly tilted his head while staring at the girl in his lap.
"What was that?" He questioned.
"Nothing, you big dummy Azmo; now continue watching the auction! I hear there are going to be some pretty things coming up!" Yang Hua responded with a cherry voice.
However, unbeknownst to Azmodeus, a dark look flashed past her eyes for but a brief moment before returning to normal.
Whatever... Back to the auction it is...
He discarded the peculiarities of the girl in his lap as he refocused his attention on the auction. He completely ignored the killing intent directed toward him by the young master in VIP booth 2.
Furthermore, he wasn't the only one doing something similar, as during the auction, nearly every haughty and conceited young master made sure to insult Azmodeus when he outbid them with absurd amounts of money.
So at this point in time, instead of continuing with the auction, everyone was thinking about how to best appease the young boy, who also possessed the title of 'Young Master Crusher'.
That title wasn't an empty one either, as every high-ranking figure has heard of the Direct Disciple of Peak Leader Xing Yi stripping every young master that got in his way down to their underwear...
The only things that any of them had left intact after encountering the Anomaly were their lives...
Despite this, the anomaly himself was leisurely strolling outside of the VIP booths. Yang Hua walked right beside him, possessing clear affection in her gaze after bearing witness to his effortlessly domineering demeanor during the auction.

Meanwhile, in a certain discrete corner of the Yellowcreek Auction House, a girl around fifteen years old sat next to a window seal with a curious gleam in her violet-colored eyes. She focused on the receding figures of Azmodeus and Yang Hua.
"So that is junior brother Azmodeus... Elder Xing Yi has been hounding me about his existence for the last few days, but the rumors never measure up to the real-life thing, do they?"
This girl's name was You Mie, and she was known as the Second Eldest Goddess of the Yellow Mellow Sect.
Furthermore, she was also the second-eldest direct disciple of Peak Leader Xing Yi and was widely known for not only her beauty but also her skills in alchemy and formations.
She was usually immersed in secluded cultivation. But as of late, she was taken out of her deep state of meditation by the recent rumors spreading around about the up-and-coming most talented genius in the Fire Nation.
"I wonder where this boy's immense talent comes from...? There must be so many secrets hidden underneath that tight-knit veneer of his..." You Mie mused with an imperceptible glint flashing past her seductive gaze.
Even through the veil covering half her flawless, jade-like face, one could still begin to see a small smile form on her luscious red lips.
She appeared to enter a state of deep thought while entertaining the idea of asking her Eldest Senior Sister about everything she knew about this 'Azmodeus' character at a later date.
