Douluo: Soul-eating Spider Emperor

Chapter 396: The Minotaur Who Makes People Happy/Auction of Little Black Seeds

"Xiao Wu, what's wrong with you?"

Walking on the mahogany floor, Tang San finally noticed that there was something wrong with Xiao Wu's expression.

When Xiao Wu heard Tang San's concerned question, she hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "Nothing."

"..." Tang San frowned and asked, "Is it because of the scene at the door?"

As he spoke, his eyes couldn't help but look at the hateful little loli next to Xiao Wu who was grinning at him.

"I'm sorry, Tang San. Someone just asked me if I had a male servant with me. I said no. I didn't expect that the male servant they were talking about would be you, and I didn't expect that they would stop you and make things difficult for you." Xiaodong responded with a smile:
"But fortunately, you remained calm in the face of danger. Not only did you successfully resolve the misunderstanding, but you also stole the show."

"..." These words made Tang San feel very awkward. No...what was wrong with being in the limelight?
Is this wrong?
Which young person doesn’t like to show off?
Well, although I am not a teenager strictly speaking, once I have experienced the feeling of pretending to be cool, I can never stop.

Tang San was not convinced, but he did not open his mouth to defend himself, because he knew that he could not win the argument against this evil little Lolita.

So Tang San simply remained silent, and the atmosphere was slightly stagnant. Fortunately, Xiao Wu on the side finally spoke:
"Okay, Xiaosan, that's exactly what the guard asked just now, Xiaodong was just joking."

"Let's go to the auction venue."

Tang San felt very uncomfortable with Xiao Wu's tone that clearly showed her favoritism towards Xiao Dong, and he sensitively sensed that Xiao Wu seemed to be disappointed in him?

Just because of a moment of limelight?

But when I was in the limelight before, didn’t Xiao Wu always look at me with admiration?

Worshiping this 'third brother' of mine!
Why has it been like this since I followed Xiaodong...

After some quick thinking, Tang San immediately found the reason. It was not his problem, but Xiaodong's problem!

She must have said something bad about me in front of Xiao Wu!

This damn little princess!

But now is not the time to talk about this. I can only do some ideological work on Xiao Wu after I get back.

Tang San thought so and fell silent along the way. Xiao Wu no longer had the carefree and innocent look she always had in the past, and a complex expression appeared on her pretty fair face from time to time.

As for the instigator, Xiaodong, he neither comforted Xiaowu nor continued to tease Tang San. He just held Xiaowu's hand and walked leisurely in front.

Ok?
Did this successfully give the heroine Xiao Wu to the Minotaur?

Of course not!
How could Tang San and Xiao Wu, this destined couple, be separated so easily?

Xiaodong hasn't had such a gratifying idea yet. She is more trying to change Xiaowu's character, trying to free her from the fate of becoming Tang San's vassal... and by the way, break the image of the 'perfect Tang San' in Xiaowu's mind.

Judging from the results, the effect is quite good.

Xiaodong is looking forward to the day when Xiaowu grows up to be a real big sister.

'Perhaps in the finale, the one confronting Qian Renxue will no longer be Tang San, but Xiao Wu who has become the Asura God? ' Xiao Dong thought with some amusement.

The three people with different thoughts walked into the spacious auction site and sat down casually in a corner.

Xiao Wu and Tang San also put aside their other thoughts for the time being and looked at the guests participating in the auction with curiosity.

"Huh? Why are everyone wearing masks?" Xiao Wu stared at the different masks on the guests' faces in amazement. Xiao Dong said casually, "To keep their identities secret."

"Then Xiaodong, should we also..." "No, because even if I wear a mask, I will still be recognized, and no one dares to bully me and my friends in Tiandou!" Xiaodong raised his chin a little proudly: "Otherwise I will call my mother to teach him a lesson!"

Xiaodong's identity as a princess is the best protective umbrella. In addition, the public has long known that the little princess has the ability to call on the Pope. After all, the shadow of the Pope that appears behind her when she sings every week is enough to make people imagine.

Yes, this evil little loli with only the strength of a Soul Sect is already a very powerful presence in Tiandou.

Of course, Xiaodong was not the only one who did not wear a mask at the scene. Ning Fengzhi, Jian Chenxin, Prince Xuexing and other powerful nobles did not wear one either.

"Only the weak need to hide like this." Tang San silently observed his surroundings with a flickering look in his eyes.

The guests at the scene were only slightly surprised that Xiaodong showed up here, but no one came over to try to make friends with him with a smile. Even the person in charge of the auction venue did not send anyone to follow and escort him throughout the whole process, as if he was treating everyone equally.

But soon an exception appeared. A wealthy businessman with a big belly strode in with two beauties dressed in auction clothes. After sitting down, he touched the two beauties all over and laughed, looking very happy.

Seeing this, Tang San frowned, and Xiao Wu clenched her fists: "How dare that guy..."

"They are the service staff of the auction, and they are also commodities." Xiaodong suddenly said: "The rich businessman has bought them and they are his private property."

Xiao Wu was stunned. Tang San frowned and said, "Don't the two empires prohibit the trafficking of human beings?"

"It is indeed prohibited, but the premise is that one party is forced. If both parties are willing, then we won't care." Xiao Dong's tone was unusually calm: "And the Tiandou Auction is known for selling anything as long as it is valuable."

Tang San was silent. When Xiao Wu wanted to say something, a male host appeared in the center of the stage and the auction began!

The first auction item is a rare soul guide with attack capabilities, and long-range attacks!

After some bidding, it was bought by the wealthy Ning Fengzhi for 5 gold soul coins!
Watching the host drop the hammer, Tang San's eyes were filled with astonishment: "Such a rubbish soul guide can be sold for 5?"

My own hidden weapon far exceeds this so-called long-range attack soul guide in terms of workmanship and power!
"If I were to auction off the hidden weapon myself..."

"Sangie, do you think you lost money by selling the hidden weapon to me?" Xiaodong's voice suddenly rang in Tang San's mind. He immediately tightened his eyes, glanced at Xiaodong inconspicuously, and shook his head after a brief thought.

Selling at a loss?
This was indeed true in terms of price alone, but Tang San knew very well that if a young man like himself with no background took out a hidden weapon, such a valuable killing machine, in an auction venue where even people were commodities, the result would be obvious.

In the original novel, Ning Fengzhi did not do anything cruel because he took into consideration that Tang San was Ning Rongrong's friend and did not want to offend Tang Hao.

So what Xiaodong paid for the hidden weapons was not only the gold soul coins, but also the support of the most powerful force.

The auction progressed without stopping, and after several rounds of goods, Tang San had no intention of making a bid, as if he was just here to visit, until a black seed was taken out!

"It's the little black seeds!" Xiao Wu exclaimed in surprise, and Tang San looked at Xiao Dong in surprise. She said directly that she would not use the little black seeds to make money, and had always given them to others for free.

Unfortunately, many people do not know the actual value of the small black seeds, and instead exchange them for gold soul coins.

Of course, we can’t blame other people for being blind. The value of these little black seeds is really... not low!
"8 gold soul coins for the first time!"

"8 gold soul coins for the second time!"

"8 million..."

"10 million!"

A voice interrupted the host's action of dropping the hammer!
