Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl - Chapter 381
Chapter 381: Chapter 381: The End
“Who are you?”
Jiang Xiaobai was cautious of the mysterious figure that appeared suddenly. He had just grabbed a great number of treasures, and if this person had any unsavory intentions towards him, it wouldn’t spell anything good.
“Void Prince, don’t worry, I mean no harm.”
The masked person chuckled lightly, and her voice was gentle, indicating she was a woman.
“I’m just interested in you, Void Prince. I’ve heard you like to make friends, so I decided to pay you a visit.”
“If you’re free, you can find me in Qingxuan City, in Zijing Pavilion. I will be waiting for your arrival.”
With that, the person in black gave Jiang Xiaobai a token as a form of promise.
Then she simply left.
This made Jiang Xiaobai somewhat puzzled. Gu Ning attested that the token was not problematic; it was just a simple token.
Looking at the token in his hand, it was made from purple wood, and on it was a gilded character—’Purple’.
This must be the token of Zijing Pavilion.
However, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t pay it much mind. As long as they didn’t come to cause trouble, he didn’t plan on going to Zijing Pavilion or any place alike.
By that time, the Gu clan would certainly find that there was something wrong with the spirit stones he gave them, and they would put a bounty on his head that would stir up the whole city.
Going would be tantamount to walking directly into danger.
Casually tossing the token into his storage, Jiang Xiaobai headed straight to the backstage of the auction. Someone was already there, waiting for him.
All the items he had procured were stored in a ring, except for the Blood Warrior, who was tied up with iron chains, standing motionless.
The killer intents filled her crimson eyes, which seemed determined to mercilessly extinguish all lives within her field of vision.
Jiang Xiaobai walked up with a laugh, “Thank you all for your hard work.”
Gu Leng walked over from the side and hurriedly responded respectfully, “Young Master Bai, these words sound strange. What could be hard about this? ”
“Let’s be frank, our Gu Clan owes a big favor to you, Young Master Bai.”
Both men exchanged smiles, each harboring his own scheme.
Gu Leng was delighted by Jiang Xiaobai’s generous donation to his clan, and this allowed him to bolster his position within the clan. At the same time, he was pondering over how he could manipulate Jiang Xiaobai into aiding him further.
On the other hand, Jiang Xiaobai found this all amusing, yet was also upset; he was upset because he felt that this guy genuinely took him as a fool, yet he found the situation laughable for obvious reasons.
“Hehe, Gu Leng oh Gu Leng, I hope that you’re still able to laugh when you discover the truth.”
Jiang Xiaobai secretly chuckled in his mind as he passed a storage ring to Gu Leng.
Gu Leng scanned the contents of the ring with his divine sense, immediately noticing mounds of translucent spirit stones. The spectacle truly tantalizing.
Gu Leng couldn’t help but swallow hard, fantasizing about how grand it might be if all those spirit stones were his.
Yet, Gu Leng possessed a reasonable level of discretion. After a quick look, he immediately withdrew his perception and dared not to take another peek, afraid that he might not be able to resist the temptation.
“How is it? Is the amount correct?” Jiang Xiaobai asked with a smile.
“No problems. The total is fifty billion seven hundred and eighty million spirit stones. Even if we round down the fraction and apply a 30% discount for Void Prince, it comes to exactly thirty-five billion!”
Gu Leng chuckled. He was under the impression that his moment of glory had arrived. Having brought nearly eighty billion of top-grade spirit stones into the Gu Clan, it wouldn’t be unreasonable for him to receive some praise and elevate his status, right?
He was completely unaware that all the spirit stones were fake!
Having received the storage ring full of treasures, Jiang Xiaobai quickly checked it and finding no issues, turned to look at the Blood Warrior by his side.
“This woman is not bad-looking, but her expression is a bit too vicious. Your Gu Clan must have a way to control her, right?” Jiang Xiaobai feigned a slight concern.
“Hehe, Young Master Bai, please rest assured. I was just about to explain it to you.”
Gu Leng took out a token: “This token allows you to command the Blood Warrior. Let me demonstrate.”
“Lie down!”
Upon Gu Leng’s command, the woman bound by iron chains immediately dropped to the ground despite her restraints. Nevertheless, they did not impede her ability to obey the order.
The following command was to stand, and the Blood Warrior obeyed without an ounce of hesitation.
“Hehe, Young Master Bai, feel free to use this token. There won’t be any problems. And even if there are, our Gu Clan can resolve any after-sales issues at any time.”
“Also, this Blood Warrior does not require much maintenance, does not eat or drink, and simply absorbs spirit energy from the world. Just remember to feed her fresh human blood once a month, or it will greatly affect her combat abilities.”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded, his eyes were filled with a curious interest.
He then reached out and grabbed the chain of the Blood Warrior and began to walk away.
“Well then, I really need to get some rest, after these few days. See you tomorrow!” Jiang Xiaobai waved.
Gu Leng froze. He quickly caught up.
He didn’t wish to simply let Jiang Xiaobai leave.
“Young Master Bai, do you have any plans after this?” asked Gu Leng carefully.
Jiang Xiaobai casually answered, “Tonight, I’ll take a good rest and sort out the loot. Tomorrow I shall leave. ”
“This trip is not only to observe your Gu Clan’s auction, but also to see some different scenery. I plan to travel slowly to Qingxuan City.”
“Don’t worry, Gu Leng. With my Master here, nothing will go wrong.”
Gu Leng nodded repeatedly. He didn’t dare to appear too eager, so he could only reply, “No problem, Young Master Bai. This is my communication token, we can keep in touch in the future.”
“Tomorrow, I’ll prepare a farewell feast for Young Master Bai.”
“No problem. See you tomorrow at noon.”
Afterward, Jiang Xiaobai curiously observed the Blood Warrior while he walked out of the Gu Clan’s auction house.
There were quite a few people outside watching Jiang Xiaobai. They knew he carried numerous treasures with him, but all they did was watch. No one dared to make a move.
You must be kidding. Gu Ning wasn’t just for decoration.
Once Jiang Xiaobai had left, Gu Leng couldn’t help revealing an unrestrained grin, breaking into a hearty laugh.
“Hahaha, this is truly a divine intervention!”
Originally, the Gu Clan had anticipated that they might collect five or six billion from this auction, but they never would’ve imagined that someone like Jiang Xiaobai would turn up.
He was truly like a determined godsend, adamant about giving his money to the Gu Clan!
If they didn’t consider the discount, the price Jiang Xiaobai bid itself already reached fifty billion!
Now their total income was eighty billion, and within the clan, Gu Leng was sure to be handsomely rewarded. A rise in status was inevitable!
“Young Master Bai is really my lucky star. I need to manage to maintain a good relationship with him. If I can really get along with Young Master Bai, stepping over GuBei would be only a matter of time!”
Gu Leng sneered.
“Congratulations, Young Master! We are overjoyed for you!”
On hearing the compliments and congratulations from the people around him, Gu Leng was unbeatably smug.
