Samson Hendrik was still all smiles and laughing. He already had a problem with Donovan Orlando, so
with this opportunity presented right in his face, how could he let it go?
âOh my, Little Cat Fairy, Iâm also doing this for your sake. Who doesnât know about you liking Donovan?
Now that Ynes has found her true love, you can fill the empty spot in your seniorâs heart. Or, do you not
like your senior anymore and have found someone else?â
The lolita panicked and hurriedly said, âWho said so? My senior is the only one for me!â
ââ¦â
Samsonâs voice was loud, and everyone around them could basically hear every word from him.
Adding on the fact that Donovan and Ynes Larkin were the topics of discussion, many people gathered
very quickly.
âWhat, what?â
âHoly Maiden Ynes is in love with someone else? Are you serious? Young Sect Master Orlando, how
about you consider my daughter? My daughter talks about you every day!â
âHow can your daughter compare to my disciple? My disciple is talented and beautiful, peerless in the
entire worldâ¦â
The sudden change in topic took Alex by surprise, and Hermione spoke through telepathy, âSir, do you
want to earn a big sum of money in one fell swoop?â
âHow?â Alex was taken aback.
Hermione replied, âYou can pretend to choose another cultivation partner and let them sign up for it.
But, those who sign up need to pay up the dowry first. Then, once everything is settled and chosen,
those who are not chosen will be refunded the dowry. But, since youâre not the real Donovan, it will be
the real one that refunds the money and has nothing to do with you.â
âIsnât that a fraudulent marriage?â
Alex rubbed his chin, considering whether or not he wanted to do it. Anyway, he was Donovanâs enemy,
not a friend. So it would be fun to prank him a little. However, the lolita didnât give him a chance to.
She pulled Donovan away and said, âWhat about the auction? Seriously, all of you. Did you think this is
a matchmaking event? Be careful Sanctuary World doesnât revoke any of your qualifications to attend
the auction.â
Alex didnât say anything, letting himself be pulled away obediently. The more he said, the more he
would accidentally reveal himself.
However, the softness of the lolita pressing up against him was messing with his mind. Wasnât this a
little too much enthusiasm? Could Donovan really want to have his way with his junior sister?
But, Alex was completely unaware that the lolita was also in the same state right now.
In the past, Donovan wouldnât let her touch him, much less hug him like this. He would push her away
once she showed excessive intimacy. However, he didnât say a single word of protest now. Did that
mean that her senior brother was beginning to accept her?
The most accurate way to describe her feelings right now was that she had butterflies in her stomach.
Soon, the auction began. After a few opening remarks, the auction session started.
âThe first item is a Dragon Bone Sword. According to expert appraisal from our Sanctuary World, we
have determined that this sword has been passed down from ancient times. It is likely to be a godâs
weapon, based on the divine powers that originate and fluctuate through it.
âThe starting bid is one million spiritual stones!â
Alex froze for a moment. He didnât expect the first item brought out would already be something he was
familiar with. But, he had the Dragonâs Bane of Thirty-Six in his body, and he knew it very well after all.
Upon a closer look, he couldnât help but sneer.
This so-called Dragon Bone Sword was far much worse compared to his own. Each of his Dragon
Bone swords was made from the inverse bone of an actual dragon. Each dragon only had one inverse
bone in their bodies, which was the essence of their bones.
And this sword on display was made from a random piece of bone. Not to mention, there werenât any
ancient runes that made up any formations on the sword.
This kind of thing, the gods would clearly not want it!
âOne million two hundred thousand!â
âOne million five hundred thousand!â
