Reborn : Space Intelligent Woman

”You don’t have to worry about it waking up. It will be sleeping for two days.” Yu Qi said to the men.

Yu Qi went closer to the plant and even knocked on the cover. The plant was still not moving. Only then, the men approach the plant and move it away.

The woman cleared her throat to continue the auction. There were still other things that needed to be auctioned. She could not stop here. She put on another smile and called out to people to bring another item.

”This treasure was a century old. It contained a lot of blueprints of many items that had been created long ago. You might find something interesting inside this item.” The woman said.

Long Hui looked at the items. He leaned over and whispered into Yu Qi’s ear.

”Qi Qi, this is the item that our military needs to retrieve.” Long Hui stated.

”Owh... Then, let’s try to get it.” Yu Qi did not think twice.

The starting price for the item was 2 million. It was quite high. The item attracted some collectors who bid for it right away. Long Hui waited until the people started to retreat due to the high bid. When Long Hui started to raise his number card, the price was already 2.9 million.

”3 million.” Long Hui stated.

When others saw Long Hui bid for it, no one tried to bid after Long Hui. They probably did not dare to bid for the item that Long Hui wanted after seeing his strength, or they were probably afraid of his partner, who had something that could make others fall asleep. Even though they did not know whether that substance affected humans or not. So, the item went to Long Hui.

The last item was the jade pendant. Long Hui and Yu Qi examined the jade pendant. However, after seeing that it was a normal jade and it was just an old jade, both of them lost their interest. The woman explained the origin of the jade pendant, making they want to have it.

They bid for the jade pendant for 15 minutes until they got the winner. The woman concluded the auction. She told the guests that they could leave or they could go to the next room to enjoy the party. They had food to it. They could also interact with other guests.

Yu Qi looked around and saw a tall man go to the next room. She pulled Long Hui to go to the next room as well. She saw the tall man immediately being surrounded by the women who clearly coveted him.

Some women were also eyeing Long Hui. However, because Yu Qi was by his side, those women did not dare to come over. They were probably also afraid of Yu Qi when they saw Yu Qi subdue the plant monster earlier.

”That must be Senior Brother Xia.” Yu Qi pointed at the man who was surrounded by the women.

”So, do you want to save him? He seems to be happy being surrounded by those women.” Long Hui said.

”Happy? Senior Brother Xia does not like to be surrounded by women. That is probably not him.” Yu Qi thought.

She looked again at the tall man. Indeed, the tall man talked and even joked with those women. That was not her Senior Brother Xia. Her Senior Brother Xia would not act flirtatiously toward women. So, where was the real one? She was confident that she had heard Senior Brother Xia’s voice earlier. She would not mistake it.

”Looking for me?” A voice spoke behind both of them.

Long Hui and Yu Qi almost jumped out. They did not notice or feel that someone approached them. They turned around and saw a man with an average-looking face behind them.

”Senior Brother Xia?” Yu Qi was surprised to see Qin Xia with that face.

”What?” A familiar voice came out of the average-looking man.

”You disguise your face like that? You even changed your height.” Yu Qi looked surprised.

”I don’t want to be stared at by the people. So, I used the illusion array.” Qin Xia said.

”So, you are the one who buys the painting, right?” Yu Qi asked the question that she wanted to ask earlier.

”Yes. That painting belongs to the Master. I can not let others take it. I have been looking for it for so many years. Finally, found it.” Qin Xia stated. He remembered something. ”How about you, then? What are you going to do with that plant? You should know that that plant eats humans.”

”Senior Brother Xia, have you forgotten that I have another one in my Sere?” Yu Qi smiled.

”So, you want to make it your contracted beast?” Qin Xia asked.

”Probably.” Yu Qi nodded.

”I wonder where they get their hands on something like that. That plant can only be found in the cultivation world.” Qin Xia narrowed his eyes.

”Someone from the cultivation world probably was the one who bought the plant out. It can not appear in the outside world on its own.” Long Hui said.

”Maybe the evil cultivators took it away when they ran to the outside world. Well, I will investigate the matter.” Qin Xia stated.

They looked around when there was a commotion around. Someone was arguing about something.

”Well... I don’t want to be at this place anymore. I am leaving.” Qin Xia stated.
