Imperial Treasure
Chapter 1817: You're Quite Interesting
Sui Yi was still unaware that she was being ridiculed as eccentric and neurotic, because there was still quite a bit of time before the opening, she went to the main auction hall to buy a ticket, with an entry ticket costing two hundred thousand Boundary Currency.
Judging by the crowd coming and going, it’s estimated that at least a thousand people will attend this auction.
So that’s two hundred million Boundary Currency in revenue?
Forget the courier companies, the real money-makers are the auction houses…
Sui Yi bought a ticket and casually bought a glass of juice, walking into the hall. Unlike the Celestial Lapis Auction House, this auction house didn’t differentiate between VIP seats and regular seats; all the seating was arranged in round tables.
When Sui Yi went in, the hall was already seven to eight percent full.
The good seats had all been chosen.. but Sui Yi didn’t mind and chose an empty seat at the back.
Even though it hadn’t started yet, it wasn’t boring here because there were many cultivators, always someone she knew. The chatters with people passing by were enough to kill time.
Sui Yi sipped on her juice and noticed some thin books stacked on the table.
She picked out one, looked at the cover, and froze.
—Supreme Yun, Peerless and Captivating.
Uh….
This book title seems..
Sui Yi casually flipped through a few pages and found it was about the life of Supreme Yun… Though the title was a bit flamboyant, the content was quite composed and solemn, elegantly worded and highly respectful of Supreme Yun.
Since Sui Yi was already a bit curious about Supreme Yun, she continued to read.
After reading it, she gained some superficial understanding of Supreme Yun, but it was only surface-level.
Someone like Supreme Yun definitely can’t be assessed based on these surface-level biographies.
After finishing, Sui Yi put the book down and picked up the next one.
—Two or Three Things Between Yazu and My Mother.
Uh.. so the previous one wasn’t particularly flamboyant?
This one is downright deceiving.
And isn’t Yazu female?
With such curiosity, Sui Yi opened it again..
The main content was actually about this peerless goddess Yazu encountering a rustic village girl during her training, and liking her because of the village girl’s innocence, kindness, and depth, but the village girl kept saying no no no… In the end, she honestly yielded..
Being an author herself, Sui Yi couldn’t help but chuckle while reading this book, because the author was really interesting. Essentially, this was a humorous novel, with YY fantasizing the emotional world of Yazu and fabricating a sincere, kind village girl…
The domineering female CEO fell in love with the true beauty village girl?
Even someone as composed as Sui Yi couldn’t help but smile.
This book was truly interesting, and she unintentionally noticed that the authors of both books were the same person, the name on them was—Durian Dumpling.
Durian… Dumpling?
Sui Yi propped her face on her hand, a smile tugging at the corners of her mouth…
“Young master, did you see a good book that made you smile so charmingly?”
A kind voice from the side made Sui Yi turn her head; naturally, someone had come beside the table.
Seeing Sui Yi turn her head, Wan Jian, who initially thought this young man smiled exceptionally beautifully, was momentarily stunned; it was quite odd, the person who just smiled from the side, seemingly dimming the surrounding crystal light and shadow, looked very ordinary from the front. Though not difficult to look at, considering the average beauty standard in the cultivation realm, this person certainly wasn’t outstanding, at most, neat and clean.
Yet undeniably unoffensive.
And this clean, smiley man didn’t respond directly, merely glanced at them, and with long, white fingers, moved the book toward the three of them.
Hinting they could look themselves.
Pretty cold.
The young man beside Wan Jian seemed slightly dissatisfied, while the other playful girl pursed her lips, about to say something.
“Please sit,” this young man then gently stated their intention.
Leaving the two speechless, but Wan Jian felt a great affinity toward Sui Yi.
“Haha, I just felt a bit impolite earlier, luckily this brother is righteous… I am Wan Jian, this is my junior sister Qin Yue with Qi Yuan, may I ask brother’s name?”
“Ji Jiu”
“Brother Ji..”
Wan Jian was very proper, bowing before lifting his sleeves to sit down, thus making their table full; looking around the defense area, eight to nine tables were full, but still some tables were empty, with signs placed, seemingly reserved.
Regardless of class distinction, privileges are inevitable.
Wan Jian and the two started looking at the book… Upon seeing it, all three were dumbfounded, more so, alarmed.
Simply because this book title greatly offended the two most respected individuals in Xuan Ya, who were also women.
“It’s Durian Dumpling again! Senior brother, this person really has no sense, always writing such books…”
Qin Yue seemed very angry, slapping her hand against the book, also somewhat displeased with Sui Yi: “You actually find such books good?”
This remark was indeed impolite, “Junior sister!” Wan Jian frowned, looking at Qin Yue,
Qin Yue, however, didn’t care, only resentfully stared at Sui Yi.
Sui Yi also knew the prestigious reputation of Supreme Yun and Yazu in Xuan Ya was exceptional, almost all women looked up to them as role models and faith, which was understandable.
Sui Yi’s expression remained calm, not showing anger, contrary to Wan Jian, who felt impolite, thus proactively spoke: “Junior sister, this has nothing to do with Brother Ji, you know this Durian Dumpling is extremely mysterious, her books may somewhat deviate from mainstream… but her books have always been this way, today they are openly placed on these tables. Yet, Supreme Yun and Yazu have never said anything in the past, you should know she isn’t an ordinary person….”
Indeed, that’s the logic.
Sui Yi initially felt this author was extraordinary, probably knowing Supreme Yun and those two personally…
Qin Yue understood this reasoning, her anger slightly subsided upon hearing, yet still felt quite inexplicably stirred by the young man across.
Supreme Yun and Yazu are her idols!
Does this man hold the same disdain for women as those arrogant men?
“I know… But he still hasn’t answered my question. Hey, do you really find this book so funny?”
Sui Yi glanced at the girl with the captivating eyes, lightly tapping the skin below her ear with her fingers as she rested her cheek, her voice melodious and clear.
“I don’t know if it’s good or not… Anyway, I quite like it.”
I quite like it.
Utterly straightforward.
The three of Wan Jian were all taken aback.
Qi Yuan sneered, “Brother Wan, we’re disciples of Sword Supreme, and for the predecessor Supreme Yun to be so belittled—if you and I don’t step forward to teach this person a lesson, we’ll be too ashamed to face our elders at The Gate.”
Ah, it’s not that serious, is it?
Wan Jian and Qin Yue’s expressions both shifted slightly.
Sui Yi was also taken aback.
This person has such strange thoughts… Can they twist things like this?
Is she making people dislike her again?
Suddenly, there was a bell-like laugh from the side, and before she could turn around, a charming silhouette swept past and landed beside Sui Yi, her figure delicate and charming, not very tall, with a refreshing smile on her face, “Ah, finally I meet someone who shares my taste…”
These words made Wan Jian and the nearby people who were discussing these books look sullen.
This person really doesn’t know how to speak.
Just when someone was about to mock…
Sui Yi turned to look at her; previously, she felt that this woman approached because she heard the commotion on their side. Initially, she didn’t think much of it, but she didn’t expect the woman to be so proactive.
Only then did she fix her gaze on the other person…
Yet, before she could speak, the woman suddenly bent down, almost touching her face, under the puzzled gaze of Qin Yue and the others…
“Ah, now I see… You may not look like much, but those eyes of yours…”
They’re more than just beautiful…
As cold as stars, vast as the blue dome.
Never have I seen eyes so perfectly detailed, yet so boundlessly expansive…
“The lady flatters,” Sui Yi replied with a faint smile, tilting her head to pick up a teacup and drink tea.
Her attitude as calm as ever.
“Very few people earn my praise… But you sure are interesting.”
“Interesting?”
“Indeed… My intuition has always been spot on.”
Sui Yi chuckled, “You’re quite interesting too.”
“Really? You’re just as perceptive as I am,” the woman laughed heartily, completely ignoring the silent frustrations of Qin Yue and the others.
How there could be such shameless, brazen individuals in this world…
“But what to do…”
She stood to the side, suddenly looking irritated, her wandering gaze making Qin Yue feel uneasy.
Do you still want to sit down?
Sorry, the seats are full.
“I really want to sit with you.”
“But your seats are occupied.”
“How about this…”
Indeed, trying to take our seats!
Shameless! Qin Yue was about to draw his sword, angrily accusing the enchantress of impertinence…
But just at that moment, the woman reached out and pulled, moving an entire table nearby with Qian and Kun forces, seamlessly attaching it to Sui Yi’s table of four…
With a clatter, chairs moved, and she boldly sat beside Sui Yi, crossing her legs.
But the four people who were just sitting there were quite unlucky.
Each one fell to the ground, so embarrassed, causing everyone in the auction hall to turn their heads and look.
The Three Realms Auction Hall is such a prestigious place, with seats all arranged, yet someone acted so brazenly?
Those four had standing as well, and were now furious, about to draw their swords to attack, while the auction hall guards hurried over…
Conflict was on the brink of breaking out…
Smack!
The woman flipped her palm, crisping placing a medallion on the table.
The four angry ones took a good look, and their faces changed drastically, their hands trembling, instantly sheathing their swords and other weapons that had been drawn.
The guards also looked solemn, standing there, uncertain of what to do at that moment.
The woman raised an eyebrow, shaking her leg, as she glanced smilingly at Qi Yuan, “Why, is it only for you to show off being disciples under Sword Supreme, but not for me to boast about being the daughter of that old man Supreme Yao?”
Supreme Yao?
That eccentric, enigmatic Supreme Yao…
Sui Yi had heard of this figure; the four Supremes were Supreme Yun, Sword Supreme, Ink Supreme, and Supreme Yao.
Supreme Yun needs no mention, a stalwart guardian of the Human Race, upright, peerlessly noble, inviolable. Sword Supreme founded the strongest sword sect, Sword Sect, with countless disciples; there are several Sword Path Celestials too, and Sword Sect is located in the Dark Realm, protecting it. As for Ink Supreme, he founded the Ink Sect, guarding Ghost City…
