Chapter 492: Red Flame Wings
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
After an hour, the huge Auction Room was completely crowded, and then the auction finally began.
A young married woman about 27 years old stepped to the platform in a red dress. She was extremely beautiful and had a well filled-out figure embellished with an elegant temperament.
She wiggled her soft waist and walked with mincing steps to the center of the platform.
With the appearance of the woman, the clamoring Auction Room fell silent in a moment. Many eyes could not hide their desire as they intensely stared at her sexy body.
The woman swept around on the platform, gave a coquettish smile and opened her red lips slowly. “Welcome, everyone, to Treasure Pavilion’s auction. Greetings by my lowly self!”
She then saluted around slightly.
“Haha! Lady Ming Yu, you’re being too polite. It’s an honor for all of us to attend your auction.” Someone immediately said with a laugh.
“Didn’t expect Lady Ming Yu to hold the auction. Seems like it won’t be that simple this time!”
“Lady Ming Yu’s beauty can dominate Skysea Lake. It’s worth the trip to see you today!”
The atmosphere in the Auction Room became hot. That woman easily enlivened the atmosphere with just a greeting.
Inside the VIP room, Su Mo was impressed. A beautiful auctioneer could impose significant influence to the auction.
The woman’s looks and figure were even better than Luo Huan from the Purple-Gold Pavilion on Gale Island. Although objectively she wasn’t as pretty as Hong Qingxuan, her mature, seductive bearing was far beyond an innocent and young girl like Hong Qingxuan.
“Hum, a fox spirit!” Huang Yao snorted coldly.
“Sister Huang, do you have a problem with her?” Su Mo asked doubtfully.
“No!”

Huang Yao shook her head and said in disdain, “This woman is a widow, and she’s good at seducing men. Many men lost their heads over that woman!”
“Oh, a widow?” It surprised Su Mo.
“Hum! This kind of woman doesn’t follow women’s proper conduct. She’s just good-looking!” Huang Yao said bitterly.
Su Mo shook his head not knowing what to say. Obviously, she was jealous that the woman was more attractive than her.
Upon seeing the crowd’s clamor, Ming Yu raised her eyebrow into a beautiful arc and said with a beaming face, “Everyone, I shall say no more, delaying your schedule is the last thing I would want to. Now, let the auction begin.”
After saying so, she raised her slender hand, and four young, pretty maids walked out of the backstage, carrying a big wooden case of 3.3 meters long and 1.6 meters wide.
Ming Yu opened the case and took out a huge purple-gold battleax. It was 3 meters long and covered with numerous glittering electric arcs. An imposing power of thunder suffused it.
“The first one is a Lower Lv 5 weapon, the Golden-purple Thunder Axe. Despite being a Lower Lv 5 weapon, it’s among the best quality on that tier and unmatchably sharp. The most important thing is, that it contains the power of thunder, making its attack incredibly strong. The initial bidding price is 30,000 Medium Spiritual Stones, and every markup should be no less than 3,000 Medium Spiritual Stones. The bidding now begins.” Ming Yu said loud and clear.
“The first item is a Lower Lv 5 weapon. It seems like this is a high-end auction!” Su Mo sighed. Although he thought lowly of the ax as a weapon for himself, it did not mean that it was weak at all.

Lv 5 weapons were for the True Darkness Realm experts. They were of great value and precious enough to move most of the Enlightenment Realm martial artists.
Last time in the Firmament Divine Realm, Su Mo had not found even one Lv 5 weapon after killing a number of talents and had gotten mostly Lv 4 weapons. However, he found several Lv 5 cultivation skills and martial arts techniques that could be sold for a good price.
Back then in the Sky-sea Pavilion of Skymoon Country, Su Mo had sold most of his belongings, only left with several Lv 4 swords and a dozen precious Lv 5 martial arts techniques.
“What price can this Lv 5 weapon reach to?” Su Mo started to ponder about this and considered if he should sell all of his Lv 5 martial arts techniques.
He planned to save the Lv 6 King techniques for himself, and he would not sell them unless the situation forced him to. He could sell all of his Lv 5 techniques to suffice his lack of stones.
The bidding started while Su Mo was lost on his own thoughts.
“35,000 Medium Spiritual Stones!”
“40,000 Medium Spiritual Stones!”
“43,000!”
“50,000!”
In a few seconds, the price was raised from 30,000 to 50,000 Medium Spiritual Stones and was still rising.
At last, a Lv 8 Enlightenment Realm expert got the axe for 86,000 Medium Spiritual Stones.
As the auction continued, people bade precious treasures one after another, and the temperature in the room kept rising.
The items in the earlier stage of the auction were not appealing to Su Mo, and he had not participated yet.
Neither were Hong Qingxuan and Huang Yao. They had seen all kinds of treasures in the Spiritual Treasure Palace of Celestial spirit Sect, so they were not interested in the items.
“Brother Su Mo, what kind of item do you want?” Hong Qingxuan turned her head and looked at Su Mo.
Su Mo thought for a while and replied, “I don’t need anything now, except for a powerful body-move technique. I don’t know if they have it.”
The martial arts techniques Su Mo practiced were all at King-level, except for a Lv 4 body-move technique.
“The scale of this auction is big. I am pretty sure that they will have it.” Hong Qingxuan said.
Another deal was done in the Auction Room while they were talking.
Later, a beautiful maid walked toward the platform, holding a 0.6-meter-long square jade box with both hands.
Ming Yu took over the jade box, swept the place and opened her mouth. “Next, an abnormal treasure called Red Flame Wings.”
She opened the box while speaking, and took out a pair of crimson wings, which looked like a mini version of a real bird-beast that glowed with fiery radiance.
The entire place quieted down immediately. Many people who knew something about them fixed their keen eyes on the wings.
“The Red Flame Wings is a Medium Lv 5 flying treasure. It can be controlled by Vital Spirit, and helps you soar like a legendary bird at the speed equal to a Middle True Darkness Realm martial artist’s.”

Saints and Suffering: A Naruto Fanfiction
Synopsis: Naruto and Sasuke were unable to defeat Kaguya the first time around, and suffer immensely for their failure. They travel back in time to right their wrongs, but struggle with the repercussions of their failure and the unintended consequences of their actions. Author's Note: This is fanfiction, I am a first time author, and I make no claims nor guarantees to quality. I have another story floating around in my head, but I am writing this first in order to practice my skills and gain feedback. Please feel free to give constructive criticism, I will try to read and respond. No guarantees to upload schedule or speed will be made. I work a full time job, and I am not particularly fast at writing, though maybe speed will increase as I become more practiced with my storytelling. This work will essentially be my playground moving forward; I'm going to write about scenarios that tickle my fancy, and the overall story may suffer from it. I will endeavor to keep continuity though. I have an outline that I am working on, and there is an overall arc to the story already. Furthermore, as of the beginning of this novel, my intention with this novel is to explore negative emotions and use my writing as a form of meditation/therapy. When I am sad, I will write sad things, and when I'm happy, the story will be happy. Lastly, there will be religious undertones every once in a while. Hopefully nothing too heavy handed though.
