BXBX NOVEL Chapter 500 - 494: Firewood Kylin
Wayne Goldsmith sniffed slightly and then looked up at Collins Clark. His scrutinizing gaze made the old man’s heart jump.
“Old Mr. Clark, where did you buy this Wen-Bin Walnut? The scent is a bit peculiar.”
“The old man found it by chance at a stall in Abyssal City. If Master likes it, the old man has plenty more in his Star Ring,” Collins Clark said with a light laugh.
Upon hearing this, Wayne Goldsmith seemed to lose interest and looked up at the final item on the auction stage, and also the highest-valued lot of this auction.
The auctioneer carefully placed a black cage made of a secret formula on the high platform, and inside was a flame pet that caused many Trainers to be startled and stand up in shock.
A flurry of uncertain shocked sounds came from the majority of private booths.
Obviously, the last item on the auction was a pet that could even surprise Legendary Powerful Ones.
“Emperor-level pet!!!”
During the auction, Lilith Hoyle, who had been maintaining an indifferent demeanor, finally showed her agitation.
Alerted by the commotion, even David Jones, who had been playing with the Immortal Dragon on the side, couldn’t help but cast a curious glance at the high platform.
The first thing he saw was the jet-black cage made of a complete set of Silence Stones.
Silence Stones have the ability to suppress and isolate flames. They belong to Level 7 Epic resources and are often used by Blacksmiths to forge defensive arcane implements against fire-type pets. They are strategic resources with extremely high prices.
Inside the Silence Stone cage, there was a bizarre creature with a flaming dragon head. The deer antlers on its head curved backward, its lion-like eyes flashed with golden light, and its terrifying, flaming scales covered its body. The creature had a spiked dragon tail that flicked slightly, radiating an imposing and commanding aura.
“Fire Kylin!!!” David Jones’s pupils suddenly constricted, and he instinctively activated his Illusion-Piercing Eye.
“Pet Name”: Firewood Kylin
“Pet Type”: Fire, Dragon
“Species Level”: Legend Emperor
“Grade”: Class IV lower-level
“Species Skill”: Inheriting Flames, Kylin Blessing, Heavenly Burning, Redeemed Flames, Legend Realm
“Pet Profile”: The Firewood Kylin is an auspicious mythical beast from ancient times. It is a symbol of blessing born under heaven, capable of calming disasters and bringing good fortune.
Note: Those who dare to actively kill the Firewood Kylin will bring misfortune upon themselves!
“It’s ridiculous to bring such an auspicious beast like the Kylin to the auction!” David Jones couldn’t help but complain.
“It’s not that the Goldsmith family wanted to auction off the Kylin, but they had no choice!” Lilith Hoyle calmly said now that she had regained her composure.
Hearing this, David Jones looked at his teacher with surprise.
“Kylin is an auspicious animal, and the Goldsmith family is willing to auction it off because there’s no powerful individual among their tribe who could get the Kylin’s approval. Also, the Kylin is proud and arrogant. A short period of captivity is fine, but if it’s confined for too long and commits suicide, the whole family’s destiny may wane because of it,” Lilith Hoyle explained.
Apart from this reason, there was another one she didn’t mention: a Kylin Saint Spirit is guarding the Flowery Kingdom.
Even though the Kylin Saint Spirit had already fallen into a long slumber, the existence of the Saint Spirit was still known to top forces, who still dared not lay hands on mythical creatures related to the Saint Spirit.
If this Firewood Kylin was not a fire type, but a earth type related to the holy spirit, the Goldsmith family might have chosen to release it directly instead of taking it to the auction to make a profit.
“The Fire Kylin is an ancient auspicious beast, with a Species Level reaching the ranks of the Legendary Emperor. It is a sacred beast that can only be under contract by those favored by destiny!”
Goldsmith’s legitimate daughter looked at the Kylin with a trace of jealousy, “According to legends, beast training families favored by the Kylin will basically become the top beast controlling powers of their time!”
“Therefore, the starting price for this item is: any one eighth-order arcane implement or an eighth-order Golden Elixir. This item does not accept transactions using Star coins!”
“Interesting, they even dare to auction off a Fire Kylin!”
Bella Wanton looked at the Kylin on the high platform, her eyes flashing coldly, but she had no intention of bidding.
There were many buyers with the same idea as Bella Wanton. For a moment, there were no other voices in the exhibition hall except the auctioneer’s.
A bizarre situation occurred where the Firewood Kylin, with a Species Level as high as the Legendary Emperor, was coldly treated by all the buyers present.
Seeing this, Wayne Goldsmith’s face turned slightly cold.
Suddenly, a sense of powerlessness surged from his heart.
“Something’s wrong!”
Feeling his internal Arcane Force being quietly sealed, Wayne Goldsmith subconsciously looked behind him, and a huge five-colored ice blade suddenly attacked his neck.
“Rumbling!”
With an explosion, Wayne Goldsmith’s legendary arcane implement he wore close to him automatically protected him, forming an extremely strong defensive cover in an instant.
“Room N0.1!”
“Not good, something’s happened!”
“Someone’s causing trouble?”
David Jones and Lilith Hoyle immediately looked in the direction of room No.1, where a giant ice blade resembling a pillar pierced through the roof, emitting a terrifyingly cold aura.
“Interesting, someone dares to launch a surprise attack in front of so many top forces!” Not only did Lilith Hoyle not show fear on her face, she even showed a trace of admiration.
At this moment and place, even if they didn’t calculate the Goldsmith family’s power, just the beast controlling powers participating in the auction gathered more than a dozen legendary powerful ones.
Moreover, with the Goldsmith family’s defensive forces and the Beast Legion of the outer first-class city Peony City, if these legendary powerful ones could have problems here, the Flowery Kingdom would have long been destroyed!
However, the sudden explosion in room No.1 seemed to be intended to attract the attention of everyone present. Three figures covered in black robes appeared above the exhibition platform without anyone noticing.
Under the horrified gaze of Goldsmith’s legitimate daughter, the defensive cover capable of withstanding half an hour of an all-out attack from the Legendary Powerful Ones unexpectedly shattered mysteriously.
“Little girl, don’t move, I don’t want to waste time feeding your shriveled flesh and blood to my babies.”
As the hoarse voice sounded, Goldsmith’s legitimate daughter suddenly felt unable to move her body. The imprisoned Fire Kylin and the Bodhi tree sapling in the black cage beside her appeared in the hands of the black-robed man in an instant.
In a flash, raging flames erupted from room N0.3. Lilith Hoyle stepped out, her figure instantly appeared on the exhibition platform, and a divine bird shining like a god spirit quietly emerged behind her.
The terrifying high temperature caused the three people who were prepared for battle to have steamy sweat on their foreheads.
“Put down the Bodhi tree saplings, and I will spare your lives.”
Lilith Hoyle said calmly, as if the three semi-legendary powerful ones who were only one step away from the peak in front of her were as insignificant as ants that could be easily crushed on the roadside..
