Chapter 71: The Divine Demon Trading Conference II

  The boss's wife was still in a state of being resourceful and tactful, chatting warmly with everyone, her white tender hands occasionally brushing away the falling hair, adding to her charming demeanor, making people want to get close to her from afar.

  When Su Qi arrived in this completely unfamiliar environment, apart from Xi Ruiwen, there was no one else she knew. Adding to that, she had a few reservations about facing other gods and demons, so naturally, she stuck close to Xi Ruiwen. Although she was curious about new things at heart, she didn't dare to put all her enthusiasm and attention into it. After all, there were many eyes watching her, both openly and secretly, making Su Qi think that ignoring them was not an option.

  Shi Ruwen gazed at Su Qiruo with a careful and dependent look, his heart filled with pride. One day, he would snatch Su Qiruo away from Lu Ke's side and make her his own pet, then slowly devour her spiritual energy!

  "Oh! Master She! Little beauty!" As soon as the boss's wife saw She Ruiwen and Su Qiruo from afar, she hurriedly came over to greet them, her enthusiastic demeanor seeming as if she feared that She Ruiwen and Su Qiruo would disappear in the blink of an eye.

  "Hello, boss lady." Su Qi Ruo forced out a smile. Although she didn't think she was very familiar with the boss lady, since the other party had enthusiastically welcomed her, she couldn't not greet her in return. As the saying goes, "A raised hand won't hit a smiling face!" However, looking at the boss lady's bright and cheerful smile, Su Qi Ruo felt a bit uneasy inside. Generally speaking, people who were so enthusiastic when meeting you for the first time, as if they were family, were either pyramid scheme salespeople or proselytizers. Su Qi Ruo naturally had a few guards up.

  The boss's wife completely ignored Su Qi's stiff smile and didn't notice the vigilance in her eyes. She rushed to Cui Ruiwen with a smile, "Mr. Cui, you're willing to come over and support us, this place is really thriving! Oh my, you even brought a beautiful young lady, making us jealous!"

  She Ruiwen nodded with a smile, "If Xiao Qi hasn't been here before, bring her over to take a look!"

  What's wrong with you? Su Qi Ruo felt a chill and secretly used her elbow to nudge Cheng Ruimin, signaling him not to speak rashly.

  She Ruwen completely ignored Su Qi's small movements and continued talking to the boss, "Isn't it too late for him to come?"

  "Oh dear! What's the hurry? Even if we're late, we can't start without you! Alright! Master Shi, it's time to begin!" The boss's wife smiled slyly and left with a flourish.

  As soon as the boss's wife left, Su Qi wanted to emphasize the wording issue with Yang Ruiwen, but Yang Ruiwen didn't give her a chance and hurriedly said, "It's starting! Look!" Then he glanced up at the sky.

  As Su Qi followed Cheng Ruiwen's gaze, she saw that the azure sky was suddenly shrouded in layers of thick clouds. The thick clouds seemed to be pulled from the ninth heaven and slowly fell towards the center of the crowd, like a waterfall falling from the ninth heaven. The splashing misty vapor spread across the entire ground, decorating the already beautiful world, which was like a paradise on earth, with an air of mystery. As people admired the strange sight while slowly dispersing in all directions, after a short while, a thick cloud column, shaped like a flower bud and towering like a pagoda, rose from the central ground.

  Is this an illusion? It must be an illusion! Su Qi Ruo stared at the cloud pillar in front of her, finding it hard to imagine that such a magnificent scene could be real.

  "Hmm? This time it's quite creative!" Shu Ruiwen exclaimed.

  "What? This time? Is this kind of scene going to happen every time?"

  "Of course!" Shi Ruwen gave Su Qiyue a "you're so inexperienced" look, "Don't you always need to create a dazzling scene to attract people's attention? Doesn't the human race hold an opening ceremony for their conferences?"

  "Oh!" Su Qi nodded as if suddenly enlightened, "This makes sense," she said, "Is this real or an illusion?"

  "Guess what?" Si Ruiwen said with a sly smile.

  Su Qi Ruo's good mood was ruined by Ji Ru Wen's words, "Forget it!"

  "Hehe......" Shi Ruwen saw Su Qi's angry appearance and explained, "It's half true and half false! It can't be explained clearly for the time being!"

  "Is it that you don't want to say?" Su Qi retorted with displeasure.

  "The means of the Demon Clan are countless, and it's not easy to explain them clearly. You're not a member of the Demon Clan, so many things can only be understood but not expressed in words!" Su Qi said this sentence sincerely, and if he thought about it carefully, he wouldn't be entangled anymore. It's like the inheritance in his own body, which is indeed difficult to explain clearly, even he himself hasn't fully figured it out yet, let alone express it to others. Each ethnic group has its own secrets!

  Su Qi Ruo turned her gaze to Yun Zhu, only to see Yun Zhu like a blooming flower, layer by layer unfolding from the center, and every time a petal fell, it formed a cloud platform. When the blooming was over, a huge cloud platform was formed in the center of the crowd. In the center of the cloud, a shy white-clothed girl knelt and sat, her slender body vaguely visible to people through the thin clothes like cicada wings, making the onlookers involuntarily exclaim. The girl seemed to be startled by the crowd's shouts, anxiously twisting her body, this originally normal movement at this time became a bait that enticed people, making people's gaze at the girl more and more greedy. The girl was unaware of the change in people's expressions, from time to time stealing glances at the people around the cloud platform, with a mixture of shyness and expectation in her eyes.

  "Huh... what's this? An opening... dance?" Su Qi was perplexed, how did a solemn demon-god transaction become so romantic, had the demon-god realm also been influenced by human customs?

  "Opening dance?" Si Ruiwen stared at Su Qiruo in confusion, did he hear that wrong? Opening dance? What was Su Qiruo thinking?

  She Ruiwen's tone of doubt made Su Qi'er reply cautiously, "Isn't it?"

  "This is an auction!" Sheng Ruiwen's tone suddenly rose by eight degrees, which made Su Qi feel quite ear-piercing. Su Qi couldn't help but complain, "What are you doing! My ears are deafened!"

  "You want to drive me mad!" retorted Si Ruiwen angrily.

  "Alright, alright, what's going on here? Since it's an auction, how can there be a person? Can't be the auctioneer, right?"

  "Or else?" She Ruiwen looked back at Su Qi with a serious expression.

  "What an auctioneer!" This is a society ruled by law, a society ruled by law! How can there be an auctioneer!

  "It's not human!" Shi Ruiwen said, and Su Qiwei finally let out a breath of relief. This bastard Shi Ruiwen, actually tricked me! "It's an auction demon." Shi Ruiwen corrected seriously.

  "Isn't a demon also human?" Su Qi was completely bewildered by Ye Ruiwen.
