Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2630: Chapter 2631: Xiao Yu Reveals Herself

At the same time, the host on the stage was passionately introducing.

”I’m sure you all have already seen it, yes! This is an extremely rare deep-sea creature!”

”It is said that these deep-sea creatures only exist in the uninhabited great oceans, among which the mermaids who can turn their tears into pearls are the most revered. Although this one isn’t a mermaid, it’s no ordinary creature either.”

”She was captured by the Carter Family under fortuitous circumstances. To pull her out of the deep sea, the Carter Family lost a dozen elite subordinates. Once on land, any malicious approach would lead to fierce resistance from this deep-sea creature, injuring several strong individuals one after the other, further proving this creature’s extraordinary nature.”

”Coincidentally, this charity auction is being held, and the Carter Family has offered this creature for everyone’s consideration!”

At this point, the host gave a mysterious smile, ”Not to mention anything else, just by her appearance, this creature is of exceptional beauty, a rare treasure for those with such inclinations!”

Upon hearing this, Mandy, sitting below, looked displeased, snorting coldly, ”Despicable!”

But this didn’t stop the eyes of the other attendees from flashing with greed.

Especially some of the corpulent tycoons, whose mouths seemed about to water.

And the host appeared very satisfied with the crowd’s reaction, chuckling softly.

”In that case, according to the old rule, the highest bidder wins; bidding starts now!”

As soon as the words fell, someone below shouted loudly, ”I bid ten million!”

But before he could finish, someone else had already bid twenty million.

In an instant, the entire hall was in an uproar, with bids ringing out incessantly, and the price quickly escalated to over a hundred million.

Seeing this scene, the host was overjoyed.

Although it was a charity auction, his commission was directly linked to the final amount fetched.

So the more sold, the more he profited.

Just as he was over the moon, wishing for as many bidders as possible.

The girl in the cage, however, had a sorrowful look in her eyes, her four exposed tentacles trembling slightly, clearly saddened at being reduced to an auctioned commodity.

Witnessing this, Xiao Sha, who had maintained a haughty demeanor throughout, felt a pang in her heart and couldn’t help but furrow her brows.

”Treating us from the Demon Race as commodities, they all deserve death!”

With that, she turned to look at Xue An, hoping to discern some hint from the face of this newly acknowledged master.

But she was disappointed.

Because at this moment, Xue An’s face was only a calm placidity.

But it was this serenity that made Xiao Sha, as a member of the Dragon Clan, feel her hair stand on end.

The reason being nothing other than how terrifying Xue An’s eyes were.

They seemed like deep, unfathomable wells that one couldn’t peer into.

Xiao Sha shivered, swallowing back her words.

Meanwhile, the frenzied bidding finally concluded with the host’s hammer strike on stage.

He shouted in an almost hoarse voice excitedly, ”Eighteen billion, congratulations to Mr. Fuluo from District Three for acquiring this rare piece, wishing him a wonderful night!”

That last quip elicited a burst of laughter.

All men, they knew what the host meant.

As for Mr. Fuluo, he was beaming, staring at the girl in the cage with eyes that seemed eager to devour her whole.

Being a top tycoon with assets worth trillions, he had everything one could have.

Even due to the great changes in the world and the arrival of the Divine Clan, his lifespan had been significantly extended.

In such circumstances, he found his life somewhat empty.

Fine wine and gourmet food, beautiful women and celebrities barely stirred him anymore.

Until today, when he saw this tentacled girl trapped in the cage, that long-lost thrill returned at last.

For this, he didn’t hesitate to spend a fortune, just to taste something different.

He stood up, walking towards the stage with a smug smile.

Meanwhile, even Huyue couldn’t hold back, turning to look at Xue An.

”Old Xue, what are you waiting for? Isn’t that Xiao Yu? Are you really going to watch her fall into a demon’s clutches with open eyes?”

Xue An smiled, ”Of course not, I was just handling some other matters just now!”

”Other matters, what matters?” Huyue was puzzled.

Xue An blinked but didn’t answer.

There was no need to answer.

Because at that moment, the lights in the hall suddenly went out.

The brilliant lights of the entire hotel went out at the same time, as if someone had flipped off all the switches.

But that was impossible, for this hotel was located in the most prosperous rich district with abundant power supply, and it even had its own generator and backup power.

Under such circumstances, even if a power outage occurred, the system would switch to backup power within a fraction of a second, without anyone in the hall noticing.

Yet it happened.

And not only the power went out, but everyone felt an extremely terrifying oppressive feeling descending with the darkness.

By rights, even with a power outage, the outside starry sky and lights should be visible from that large floor-to-ceiling window.

But now the window was pitch-black, and even the sounds from outside had vanished.

It was as if the entire hotel had simultaneously plummeted into a bottomless abyss.

”What’s going on? Where are the security?” After a brief chaos, someone shouted.

Meanwhile, others silently prepared to confront the unknown in the darkness.

Many present were wealthy and powerful individuals who had also practiced cultivation techniques, so they didn’t panic too much in the face of this sudden darkness.

But no one dared to reveal their presence, not knowing what dangers lurked within the darkness.

It was at this moment that a ray of light flashed, and a red lotus emerged within the darkness.

The red lotus was crystal clear, possessing a unique beauty refined to its utmost.

Below the red lotus stood a young man in white, proudly aloof.

This scene caused the pupils of many in attendance to contract.

Even Mandy exclaimed in shock, then said to Griffin beside her.

”Isn’t that your second grandaunt’s childhood friend?”

Griffin smiled wryly but said nothing.

Meanwhile, they heard Xue An speaking in a calm tone, ”No need to panic, nor for trying to contact the outside. For now, this hotel has become an isolated island!”

Indeed.

Some tried contacting the outside world secretly with their phones or even Divine Sense, only to find all connections blocked by the pervasive darkness.

This revelation caused an uproar throughout the hall.

”Who are you? What do you want?” A man exuding the aura of a superior stood up and shouted angrily.
