People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 130 The Appearance of Bodhi's Transformation Saliva

It was late at night, and the bright moon hung high in the sky.

On the top floor of the Purple Cloud Pavilion, Chen Xiao and Queen Medusa stood together, their backs to the surging undercurrents of the Black Corner Region, facing the rolling green mountains, leaning against the railing.

The moonlight was serene, the green mountains were verdant, and the clouds and mist were like a blanket of cotton.

This tranquil and peaceful scenery, like a pair of gentle hands, quietly lifted the curtain of Chen Xiao's memories.

In a daze, his thoughts drifted back to the tranquil city of Utan in the Gama Empire.

At that time, he immersed himself in cultivation every day. Through the changing seasons, in those few peaceful moments, there was always a beautiful figure as pure as a lotus flower by his side...

"Is something wrong?"

After waiting for a while without Chen Xiao speaking, Queen Medusa glanced at him sideways.

Chen Xiao chuckled and shook his head: "I just came to thank you."

The deal between the two was already over when Queen Medusa was sent to Canaan Academy, and she had no need to help Chen Xiao anymore.

If she's willing to help when problems arise, that's a favor; if she doesn't, no one can blame her.

"I simply don't want anything to happen to Ziyan, that's all."

Queen Medusa knew that Chen Xiao was talking about the barrier and her sudden return today, and answered calmly.

But even she herself could sense that her words lacked credibility.

It seems that after her successful evolution, she lost her former sharpness in front of Chen Xiao. The queenly aura that she once commanded without anger was quietly subdued, replaced by a gentleness and relaxation that even she herself did not realize.

The little Devouring Python's influence, though invisible, is still too great.

After much thought, Queen Medusa could only come up with this one explanation!
Chen Xiao nodded slightly and smiled, "When we were in the inner courtyard, the Grand Elder said that Zi Yan was greedy for food and play, and he couldn't rest easy without someone watching over her. In the past few years, I had less to do and my strength was weak, so even if I went into seclusion, it wouldn't take long. But now it's different. I'm dealing with those powerful people from the Black Corner Region, and I'll have less and less time to spend with this girl in the future. Moreover, after she took the Transformation Pill, we need to help her adapt slowly. There are many private topics that I can't discuss directly with her. You can come back and visit more often."

Upon hearing this, Queen Medusa remained noncommittal, but a faint smile curved her lips as her eyes darted around.

This matter truly cannot be left to her.

Even Little Fairy Doctor's relationship with Zi Yan has not reached such a close level.

Looking at Queen Medusa's appearance, Chen Xiao nodded slightly.

"Since Her Majesty does not object, I will take that as your consent."

Queen Medusa's expression was like a sudden rainstorm in June, unpredictable. Just moments ago, her eyes and brows held a hint of gentleness, indicating a good mood, but in an instant, they were covered with frost, as if the warmth just moments before was nothing more than a fleeting illusion.

Queen Medusa gave Chen Xiao a cold glance, then turned and left without saying another word.

A head peeked out from around the corner. The adorable Zi Yan glanced in the direction Queen Medusa had gone before strolling out.

Why is Medusa angry?

"She might envy you for having a nice name. After all, you're friends, and it would be too formal to keep calling you 'Your Majesty.' But the problem is, if she doesn't call you 'Your Majesty,' what should she call you?"

Zi Yan nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

...

The next day.

The biannual grand auction of Zixiao Pavilion, hosted by Hai Bodong, officially kicked off.

Chen Xiao, Zi Yan, and Little Fairy Doctor personally oversaw the operation.

Queen Medusa remains missing.

The auras of four Dou Huang powerhouses enveloped the auction hall, instantly deterring those with ulterior motives and providing bidders with a great sense of security. Under this intimidating presence, the large-scale auction proceeded smoothly without any unexpected incidents from beginning to end.

Following this, thanks to Chen Xiao's deliberate promotion, the news that the auction would feature two low-level Earth-rank combat techniques and one low-level Earth-rank cultivation manual spread throughout the Black Corner Region within three days, making the Purple Cloud Pavilion's reputation even more renowned.

It was at this moment that the long-awaited counterattack from the Eight Doors and the Black Emperor Sect finally arrived.

"They've already spread the word today that they'll be holding the largest auction in history in Black Emperor City in a month. They've even declared that low-level Earth-rank combat techniques won't be the grand finale. It's obvious they're targeting us."

Inside the hall, Hai Bodong chuckled and said, completely unconcerned about the counterattacks from the two major forces.

After all, this is exactly the outcome they wanted to see.

The Eight Doors and the Black Emperor Sect could never have imagined that Chen Xiao and his group never intended to stay in the Black Corner Region for too long. All they did was to force them to react.

Now, this is exactly what I wanted!

Has the auction list been leaked yet?

Upon hearing Chen Xiao's question, Little Fairy Doctor looked at Hai Bodong with a hint of anticipation.

"It's already out. I specifically had someone guarding Black City so we could get it as soon as possible. However, this is only the first version. They will definitely add more new items for auction in the next month."

Hai Bodong took out several lists from his storage ring and distributed them to the three people.

Large-scale auctions typically generate buzz in advance, and the first version of the auction list is heavily promoted by the organizers.

When the auction actually begins, there will only be more lots, not fewer, which is a long-standing tradition.

Upon receiving the list, Chen Xiao hadn't even turned to the second page before he spotted something interesting.

Turning his head to glance at Zi Yan, he saw that she was also frowning and staring intently at a picture of a monster corpse on the list.

"Chen Xiao, I really hate this thing, but I can't explain why."

"Perhaps it's related to your true form."

Without a doubt, the only thing that could evoke such disgust in Zi Yan was that dried corpse of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix.

Zi Yan nodded slightly, disgusted by the dried corpse of the demon phoenix that day, and lost all interest in continuing to examine it.

Little Fairy Doctor quickly flipped through the pages, and soon her gaze settled on a pattern of emerald green liquid.

Bodhi's incarnation, saliva!
Little Fairy Doctor looked up at Chen Xiao, her eyes filled with a hint of seeking confirmation.

Chen Xiao nodded in response: "That's it!"

Upon hearing this, Little Fairy Doctor breathed a sigh of relief.

Although everyone guessed that the Eight Doors and the Black Emperor Sect would definitely bring out some hidden treasures in this counterattack, no one was sure whether they would bring out the Bodhi Transformation Saliva before seeing the list.

Now, I can finally feel completely at ease.

"A mid-level Earth-rank combat skill, a dried monster corpse, Bodhi Transformation Saliva, and even Battle Spirit Pills, Battle King Pills, etc. The Eight Doors and the Black Emperor Sect really went all out this time. It's a pity that we couldn't see that fragment of the map."

After flipping through the list, Chen Xiao chuckled and praised it.

Hai Bodong also expressed some regret, "Perhaps they will put it up for auction later. After all, it is just a fragmented map without any beginning or end, and it does not deserve to be on the list."

Chen Xiao nodded slightly; what Hai Bodong said was not impossible.

However, even without that fragment of the map, they had already achieved their goal of provoking the Black Emperor Sect and the Eight Doors.

"Let's all get ready. Our opponents are being so kind, let's go and show our support!"
