Chapter 1499: The Dragon Palace Hosts GuestsChapter 1499: Chapter 1499: The Dragon Palace Hosts Guests
“Thank you all for attending today. The auction for today ends here. There will be another day of auctions tomorrow, featuring treasures that are no less impressive than those seen today. Many of you might think the prices of the final seven Artifacts today have reached their peak. But I can assure you, the ultimate record will be set tomorrow,” Star Moon Dragon Knight Li Jingyi said with a smile, announcing the end of today’s bidding.
Set a record tomorrow? That means among tomorrow’s items, she believes there will be something that surpasses the level of the Heaven and Earth Inversion Cover. What could it be?
The Dragon Knights left one after another, but Lan Xuanyu didn’t hurry to leave. Guided by divine consciousness, he sought out Li Menglong.
“Brother Li, I’ll be hosting later, but please wait a moment while I confirm the location.” Ever since coming to Sky Dragon City, he and Bai Xiuxiu hadn’t actually explored it, so they didn’t know where would be suitable to host a guest like Li Menglong.
“Alright, I’ll wait for your message then,” Li Menglong replied with a smile. His voice was clearly filled with a bit of excitement, evidently due to the Sky Burner Divine Hammer he had just acquired.
Lan Xuanyu called over a staff member from the Sky Dragon Assembly and, after inquiring, confirmed a place to invite Li Menglong for dinner.
Hosting at the Sky Dragon Sanctuary was definitely inappropriate. Besides the fact that so many Dragon Knights resided there, holding a dinner there wouldn’t have any privacy.
The final decision was to invite Li Menglong to a luxurious restaurant called Dragon Palace, under the Sky Dragon Chamber of Commerce.
After booking a room, Lan Xuanyu informed Li Menglong and then, together with Bai Xiuxiu, first teleported back to their residence at the Sky Dragon Sanctuary.
As silver light flickered, the two returned to their room. Lan Xuanyu let out a long breath, then suddenly laughed, pulling Bai Xiuxiu into his arms.
Bai Xiuxiu was startled by him, “What are you doing?”
“Happy, feeling great! An Artifact, it’s an Artifact. We struck it rich,” Lan Xuanyu said, spinning her around before putting her down.
“We secured four Artifacts today. We can distribute them among our partners. The Azure Ice Seal Godly Sword can go to Meng Qin. The Eye of the God to Qian Lei, after all his skin is thick; even if he has to speak his heart, it shouldn’t be a big deal. The yin-yang energy in the Ice Fire God Card might activate Yu Ge’s Yin Yang Chaos Bird, so we’ll keep it for her. Don’t you think the Hand of Sharp God is particularly suitable for Huihui? His Elf King Bow combined with the Hand of Sharp God would be a perfect match. We need to try it to see how powerful it really is. Maybe when he reaches God Rank, he’ll be able to shoot down a Warship.”
Bai Xiuxiu sighed, “What a shame about the Radiant Flame Dragon Lance, that Madman might have been able to try it. If we could have gotten it, every one of us would have an Artifact. That would give us a little more self-defense capability.”
Lan Xuanyu suddenly laughed, “If the teachers at Shrek Academy heard you, they would certainly roll their eyes at us. Haha, never heard of any Shrek Seven Monsters in history all being equipped with Artifacts.”
Bai Xiuxiu said, “What about the Heaven and Earth Inversion Cover? Do you think it’s useful?”
Lan Xuanyu replied, “If used as a one-time item, it would be useful for any powerhouse crossing a tribulation to become a god, at least able to withstand a few harsh blows. But that would be too wasteful. It’s more suited for those with poor talent, struggling to cross tribulations with the aid of Heaven and Earth Treasures. The Celestial Harmony Clan likely has many such cases, so it’s most beneficial to them, prompting them to spare no expense in obtaining it. Actually, the most regrettable one is the Sky Burner Divine Hammer. It’s a true top-grade Artifact with undoubtedly exceptional destructive power. It’s a shame it ended up in Li Menglong’s hands. It must be some exchange between the Sky Horse Clan and Dragon Clan, which prompted the Dragon Clan to offer such a valuable Artifact. Later, we can probe Li Menglong’s intentions.”
Bai Xiuxiu chuckled, “He’s intending to marry you, you know. Yet you’re still rushing in.”
Lan Xuanyu had built quite the immunity to such comments by now, “Aren’t you afraid I’ll be swayed? There are plenty of handsome guys both in the Dragon Clan and Sky Horse Clan. Losing to a woman is one thing, but if you lose to a man, haha…”
“Do you want to die?” Bai Xiuxiu stomped on his foot and twisted his ear at a full 180 degrees.
Lan Xuanyu winced in pain, “I wouldn’t dare. You’re always provoking me. After all, Li Menglong saved us quite a few Sky Dragon Crystal Coins today. That Sky Horse Guardian Gem he gifted us, it’s just a meal. Listen to what he has to say, we might gather some more intelligence.”
Bai Xiuxiu finally released him, but Lan Xuanyu seized the opportunity to pull her into an embrace and kissed her, “What do you think if I tell Li Menglong that I’m actually into women? That way, we can be together openly.”
Bai Xiuxiu blushed, “Don’t create new complications. Just go, I’ll follow you.” As a matter of fact, Lan Xuanyu’s previous words did make her a bit anxious. His female disguise was indeed too beautiful, sometimes leaving even Bai Xiuxiu slightly dazed.
Lan Xuanyu took stock of today’s auction gains, with the most important naturally being the four Artifacts, plus the Sky Horse Guardian Gem, and those thousand sets of Shape-Changing Armor. All good stuff!
With another round of Heaven and Earth Treasures secured tomorrow, the auction would end on a high note. Once the auction was over, he and Bai Xiuxiu would return to Fenglong City. The Blue Sea Tribe had already been notified by the Sky Dragon Assembly to gather their powerhouses. They were just waiting for his return to oversee the situation and conduct preliminary training and integration.
After taking a short rest until evening, the two took each other’s hands and teleported away. It had to be said that space transmission capacity was immensely convenient. Dragon Palace itself had dedicated teleportation coordinates. It was meant for use by the true elite tiers led by the Dragon Clan in the Dragon Horse Federation.
As silver light flickered, when Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu appeared in Dragon Palace, they were immediately overwhelmed by a sense of opulence.
What they saw was adorned with rare metals. The walls were filled with Giant Dragon carvings, luxurious yet elegant.
A young girl in a long gown hurriedly approached them respectfully, “Lord Lan, Lord Xiuxiu, please follow me.”
The girl was from the Blue Sea Tribe. Though her skin was light blue, she was incredibly beautiful and had a sultry figure, clearly carefully selected.
Dragon Palace’s interior was vast. Since they had been teleported directly inside, they didn’t know what the exterior was like. Inside, there were multiple levels, not just a single building. Various vegetation intertwined within and outside the structures, all decorated with dragons as the theme. It wasn’t just luxurious but also had a dignified and grand feel.
Dragon Palace had a total of 144 rooms of different grades. The basic consumption for the simplest private room was also 100 Sky Dragon Crystal Coins. The most upscale private rooms could go for as high as 1,000 Sky Dragon Crystal Coins, out of reach for ordinary people.
But the ingredients used here were also the most top-grade in the entire Dragon Horse Federation, many at the Heaven and Earth Treasure level. Even the Dragon Clan, ordinary members of the Dragon Clan yearned to dine at the Dragon Palace. It was their dream location.
Sky Dragon Assembly had 24 exclusive private rooms in Dragon Palace, all of the highest grade. Of these, the chief and vice-chief had their own private rooms. When Dragon Knights arrived, they would be allocated random rooms without a fixed position.
Although Lan Xuanyu was only a member of the Sky Dragon Assembly, everyone knew “she,” as a candidate Dragon Knight, was rapidly rising within the Sky Dragon Assembly’s ranks, almost at a zenith. On hearing “she” and Bai Xiuxiu were coming, Dragon Palace dared not neglect them and arranged one of the best private rooms for them.
Led by the Blue Sea Tribe girl, they walked into the private room together.
