Chapter 30: All with Exotic Colors and Patterns
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The collectors present were still together discussing their collection of light butterflies.
However, Fang Yuan had already left the scene while the crowd was in chaos.
He could imagine the disbelief of the people present when he released more than a hundred exotic color and pattern light butterflies, as well as the rush to buy them.
However, Fang Yuan was naturally not satisfied with this.
He wanted to sell his entire set of butterflies of light at a better price.
He put his thought into action.
Fang Yuan strolled toward the luxury trade venue, where the transaction amount was more than 50 million, and the value was not capped.
Naturally, more wealthy businessmen and nobles gathered there.
At the entrance of the venue, he was called by the beautiful service lady. “Sir, please allow us to look at your credentials.”
After Fang Yuan showed his credentials.
“Our luxury venue only uses one method of transaction, and that is auction.”
The service lady said politely, “In order to protect the privacy of both parties involved in the auction, we will first invite all the guests to change into this invisibility cloak.”
What was handed over from the other party was a thin, veil-like hooded cloak.
This was a pet item made from the feathers of the invisibility sparrow and the cashmere of the transformed sheep. It could only be used by trainers.
As the name suggested, it could make the wearer invisible for a certain period of time.
No one would be able to find out their real identities.
Usually, when one was rich to a certain extent, the requirement for personal privacy was even higher.
One would not want others to know what they had bought or sold.
Such services at the pet trade fair could satisfy their needs.
Fang Yuan put on the invisibility cloak and walked into the luxury goods venue. The venue was located in the middle. It was magnificent like an ancient Roman colosseum.
In the middle was an elegant yellow rosewood table with eight immortals.
On the table was an object covered with a red cloth.
The auction would begin here.
Looking around from the middle, although the stairs above were full of people, one could only see some vague figures.
They couldn’t even tell if this person was tall, short, fat, or thin.
This was the effect of wearing an invisibility cloak.
Everyone could choose to go up and auction items, or they could raise their placards to buy items.
When Fang Yuan came in, the previous auction was just over.
VIP number 39 had bought the item with 95 million, the abyssal clam’s pearl.
He was free to sign up for the auction.
Fang Yuan came to the stage.
According to the rules of the auction, each VIP wearing an invisibility cloak only needed to show the item they wanted to trade on the stage.
They could fully show the attraction of the item on the stage, and the people below would start to bid for it.
Considering that some items were relatively small, the audience might not be able to see the details clearly.
Therefore, the organizers had prepared a large projector.
All the details would be projected directly onto the large screen surrounding the four walls. The sound and light were very effective.
The guaranteed price of all the items could not be lower than 50 million, and the starting price of all the customers could not be lower than 50 million. This monetary limit ensured that only the top nobles from all over would participate in the auction.
It thus would not delay the time of the buyers and sellers.
Fang Yuan took out a contract gem first.
Rays of silver light flashed, drowning everyone’s line of sight. A purple light butterfly blossomed from Fang Yuan’s hand like a bright iris flower.
Then, it slowly flew into the air above the stage.
It danced beautifully and wonderfully.
Most of the people present were from aristocratic families. The Zhang, Wang, Li, and Chen families had all sent their representatives to participate in the trade fair.
The elder of the Zhang family said, “You’re showing off just a light butterfly? Are you kidding me? What kind of place do you think this is?”
The elder of the Wang family said, “There are nine types of light butterflies: red, orange, yellow, turquoise, green, blue, purple, black, and silver. The rarity of these light butterflies is increasing. This purple light butterfly might be considered rare in the eyes of small collectors. However, it’s still a little too small-minded to be placed in the circle of collectors at our level.”
The elder of the Li family said, “I have a friend who is a collector and has already collected the other eight different colors. The only thing missing now is the purple color. If the price is cheap, I might as well bid for it as a favor.”
The elder of the Chen family said, “The different colors themselves are not considered the rarest. If it’s a different color with a different pattern, then it will be interesting. It’s best if you can see the pattern on its back and its appearance before negotiating the price.”
As the crowd discussed, Fang Yuan waved his hand again.
The purplish light butterfly faced the projector on the stage and used its skill, [ iron wings ] !
Thus, on the projection screen on all four sides.
Everyone could clearly see that on the thin and light wings of the butterfly, there were twelve neatly carved points.
From the three-pointed star to the twelve-pointed star, the twelve-pointed star was the most precious.
Just now, an ordinary light butterfly with eleven-pointed stars could be sold for eight million, let alone a purple light butterfly with twelve-pointed stars.
“Oh? So it’s a purple light butterfly with twelve-pointed stars? Interesting.”
“It looks quite good.”
“Let me discuss the price with my old friend first.”
“The estimated price should be over 50 million. It has just reached the standard of the transaction.”
When everyone had almost settled on the expected price, Fang Yuan did not announce the start of the auction.
Just when everyone was puzzled, rays of light flashed continuously on the stage.
Red, orange, yellow, turquoise, green, blue, purple, black, and silver.
From under the cloak of the mysterious person on the stage, countless light butterflies flew out at the same time, like a magician’s dream performance!
It was more like a scene of a hundred birds paying homage to a phoenix.
The audience stood up in shock:
“What?! It’s… it’s all… It’s all light butterflies with exotic colors and patterns!”
