322: Chapter 322 A Smile Turns Back, and the Entire Audience Falls Silent
Entry to the auction is free, but seats cost money.
The larger the seat, the more expensive; the closer to the auction stage, the more expensive.
Some people want Face, enjoying the feeling of being watched by countless people after bidding on an item, so they buy large seats or front-row seats.
Lin Yun does not need these.
He did not waste money buying seats; he simply merged his Small World into the venue, lying down inside to watch.
This is also the choice of most people.
Save money, comfortable, free.
The Small World floated at the edge of the auction, like a cloud, inconspicuous, not flashy.
Lin Yun and his wives lay in the Small World, and through the transparent boundary, the entire auction was in full view.
There were still more than ten minutes before the auction started.
Figures appeared on the seats one after another, some alone, some in groups of three or five, some with attendants.
In the private Small World, everyone chatted, guessing which rare treasures would appear in this auction.
Qianye and Lu Shan had lived in Lingyuan City for many years and had participated in countless past grand events.
So, combining their past experiences, they told everyone about the grand finale items of previous auctions, and everyone was amazed.
Meanwhile, in the hot spring pool of the real world, it was another scene.
Lin Yun only split a portion of his Divine Thought to stay in the virtual venue, and the rest of his perception fell on the two people in his arms.
His fingertips moved slightly, and he began to be deliberately mischievous.
Qianye and Lu Shan immediately noticed. The portions of their Divine Thought that were originally immersed in the virtual discussion were quickly withdrawn, and both opened their eyes.
Qianye puffed out her cheeks, reached out, and pinched Lin Yun's arm gently, chiding:
"The auction is about to start, and you are still messing around here!"
Lin Yun looked down at the beautiful woman in front of him:
"Who made my Qianye and Shanshan look so moving? It really makes people unable to look away."
"Humph, who is yours? Stop being so full of yourself."
Qianye's words were sharp, but her tone had no anger at all.
Lu Shan's cheeks were burning, and her speech was still intermittent: "W-we haven't officially married into your family yet..."
Lin Yun: "It's only a matter of time."
The other women present also kept a trace of their Divine Thought to pay attention to the real-world movements. Hearing the sweet talk and banter in their ears, the corners of their mouths curled up, smiling faintly.
Just like that.
In reality, Lin Yun was saying sweet words to Qianye and Lu Shan, his hands wandering restlessly over them.
In the virtual world, everyone discussed previous auction items with a straight Face, as if they did not know what was happening in reality, waiting for it to start.
Two kinds of scenes, two kinds of atmospheres, intertwined in the same space-time.
The hot spring pool was shrouded in mist, steaming hot.
Lin Yun's hands drew circles on their waists, and their breathing became rapid.
They leaned on Lin Yun's shoulders, eyes closed, half of their Divine Thought in the virtual world, half in reality.
In the virtual world, they sat dignified, spoke appropriately, and looked as usual.
In reality, their clothes were disheveled, their Faces flushed, and their hearts beat like drums.
...
One minute countdown to the auction.
The seats in the virtual venue were almost full.
On the circular tiered seats, dense figures kept appearing.
Various costumes, various races, various auras intertwined and collided in the venue.
The noise and discussion rose one after another.
"So many people." Qiao Feifei exclaimed.
"After all, it's the largest auction in the Lingyuan Empire." Qianye said, "It gathers countless treasures once a year, so naturally, many people come."
Bai Ling lay on the soft cloud, supporting her chin: "I wonder what good things there will be today."
"There must be good things." Lu Shan said, "Last year's finale was a ninth-tier Origin secret treasure, which was bid away by a mysterious powerhouse. This year should not be worse than last year."
Everyone talked about the possible treasures.
Just then, a figure appeared in a seat in the first row.
It was a woman.
The moment she appeared, the entire venue instantly quieted down.
It was as if someone had pressed the pause button; all the noise, all the discussions, all the sounds disappeared in that instant.
She looked back and smiled.
That smile was stunningly beautiful.
That smile made everyone stop breathing.
That smile made the entire virtual world brighter.
Lin Yun's wives were all stunned.
Qianye was stunned.
Lu Shan was stunned.
Lin Yun was also stunned.
Everyone was stunned.
Beautiful.
It was just too beautiful.
That kind of beauty could not be described in words.
It was not the exquisiteness of her features, the excellence of her temperament, the fairness of her skin, or the grace of her figure.
She had all of those, and they were the most top-tier.
But, these were not important.
What was important was that she exuded an irresistible charm.
That charm was not deliberately created, not Acquired through Cultivate, but innate, engraved in her bones, flowing in her Bloodline.
She just looked at everyone and smiled.
It made everyone fall for her.
Just for a moment.
Then she turned her head back and sat properly.
But that smile lingered in everyone's mind, unable to be shaken off.
It took several seconds for the venue to slowly regain some sound.
But those sounds were low exclamations and whispers, not daring to be loud.
"Who is that..."
"Too beautiful..."
"I have lived for so many years, I have never seen such a beauty..."
"She just smiled... She smiled at me..."
"Don't be delusional, she smiled at the whole venue."
"Even if it was at the whole venue, it was worth it..."
Lin Yun came back to his senses, speechless for a long time.
His wives also came back to their senses, their Faces still carrying lingering shock.
Qiao Feifei murmured: "So beautiful..."
Bai Ling followed: "Really so beautiful..."
Su Yingxue's eyes shone as if she had seen a rare treasure.
She looked at that back.
Pink long hair draped over her shoulders, with two ears pricked up.
Those were fox ears.
Fluffy, pink, pointed, standing on top of her head, trembling slightly.
Just the back was full of temptation.
Su Yingxue could not look away.
"Just looking at the back makes one's heart race." She murmured, "What if it were the front?"
"The front has already been seen." Qiao Shiyu said, "That glance back and smile, have you forgotten?"
No one forgot.
That scene, even if they wanted to forget, they could not.
"What race is she?" Bai Ling asked, "She has fox ears, is she of the Fox-kin tribe?"
"She is of the Fox-kin tribe." Hua Caili spoke, her voice filled with emotion, "Such allure must be the most noble Bloodline of the Fox-kin tribe, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox."
Everyone gasped.
So that was it.
The Fox-kin tribe is naturally beautiful and charming; only the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox could make the whole venue quiet.
"Look at her ears."
Hua Liuli pointed at that back.
"Pink, pointed, fluffy. The ears of a Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox are more beautiful and spiritual than other Fox-kin."
Everyone nodded.
Indeed beautiful.
That kind of beauty was not a simple visual impact, but a palpitation from the depths of the Soul.
Lin Yun looked at that back and subconsciously used the System to check.
The information displayed by the System stunned him.
