Thinking of Medusa, Xiao Li suddenly remembered that ever since he had sex with Medusa last time, she hadn't appeared again, always maintaining the form of the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python.
He wondered if it was because she couldn't suppress the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python's soul, or if it was because she had suffered a loss at Xiao Li's hands and didn't want to face him.
"After returning from the Black Seal Auction, it's time to give her the soul fusion pill."
Xiao Li pondered.
Medusa was already pregnant, but because the Snake-People Tribe's gestation period was a bit long, at least two to three years, Xiao Li wasn't in a hurry to conquer her.
However, Green Scale reminded him of Medusa's taste, which made him feel a bit nostalgic... Early the next morning.
Before Xiao Li even woke up, he was startled awake by a cry of surprise.
Opening his eyes, he saw that Green Scale was already awake, sitting on the bed, her small face filled with shock.
"Young Master, my cultivation… it seems to have broken through!"
At this moment, the girl's surprise was evident on her face, difficult to suppress.
Because just now, she discovered that her cultivation had directly broken through to a One-Star Battle King overnight!
This was simply an incredibly fast breakthrough, too unbelievable!
"This is the result of our hard work last night, isn't it a pleasant surprise?" Xiao Li pinched the little girl's cheek; it was soft and felt wonderful.
"No wonder Little Fairy Doctor Sister and Green Savage Sister… after doing that with Young Master… their cultivation would increase."
Everyone who experienced the effects of the Dragon Phoenix Art for the first time had a similar reaction to Green Scale.
After all, the effect was simply too good.
The lower the cultivation, the better the effect.
Especially since Xiao Li was already a Dou Zong.
If one was still in the Dou Qi stage, under the influence of the Dragon Phoenix Art, they could basically directly ascend to Battle Master or Great Dou Shi.
A Fighting Practitioner could directly ascend to a Dou Ling, and a Battle Master could basically ascend to the peak of Dou Ling.
However, for someone like Green Scale to directly break through from a Great Dou Shi to a Battle King was actually a bit exaggerated, likely related to her physique.
After all, human physiques cannot be generalized.
"Are you still in pain? Do you want me to apply some medicine for you?" Xiao Li asked with concern.
Last night, he had slightly lost control and had tormented Green Scale quite a bit; she was probably covered in bruises.
But Green Scale seemed to have misunderstood Xiao Li's meaning, her small face blushing, she shook her head and whispered, "It doesn't hurt much anymore… If Young Master still wants to, Green Scale can…"
Her shy appearance almost made Xiao Li genuinely feel aroused.
But he couldn't bear to torment this little girl again so soon.
"That's not what I meant. If there's nothing else… then why don't you come out with me today? We're going to an auction." Xiao Li felt it was necessary to take Green Scale out more often to make her less sensitive.
"Okay!" Green Scale happily agreed.
After getting up, Xiao Li first completed his patrol duties for the day, then told Hu Gan that he was going out for a stroll.
Hu Gan readily agreed.
After all, Jia Nan Academy did not restrict the movements of its elders.
It was Hu Jia, upon seeing Xiao Li, who immediately gave him a fierce glare.
She was clearly still holding a grudge about being spanked yesterday.
But from Hu Gan's attitude, Hu Jia likely hadn't complained to him.
So, Xiao Li gave her a meaningful smile and left.
Returning to the dormitory, Green Scale was already waiting.
Originally, Xiao Li had planned to invite Little Fairy Doctor, but Little Fairy Doctor had been holed up in the Outer Academy's alchemy room for the past two days, seemingly having found an Alchemist with great experience in concocting poisons, and was enthusiastically exchanging ideas.
He had no choice but to give up, so he just took Green Scale and left Jia Nan Academy, flying towards the Black-Corner Region...
Green Scale spread a pair of emerald green Dou Qi wings, soaring through the air, her small face filled with excitement and thrill.
"Young Master, is this what flying feels like?"
This was her first personal experience of flying, and she felt a strange sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.
"Yes, you are also a Battle King expert now, not just a small maid anymore," Xiao Li said with a warm smile.
Green Scale felt deeply moved inside, with a faint sense of emotion.
She never thought she would one day become a Battle King expert; it was something she dared not even dream of before.
"Young Master, thank you." She pursed her thin lips, her eyes sparkling.
"Silly girl." Xiao Li took her soft, boneless hand and together they flew towards Black Seal City...
Black Seal City, one of the most prosperous cities in the Black-Corner Region.
All major cities in the Black-Corner Region have forces stationed there, and Black Seal City is the headquarters of the Eight Gates.
Now, because the Black Seal Auction was about to begin, Black Seal City was experiencing a crazy influx of people; various forces gathered, all coming for the auction.
After all, this Black Seal Auction had advertised Earth-rank Dou Skills and seventh-grade medicinal pills.
Treasures of this caliber were a huge temptation for all forces in the Black-Corner Region.
When Xiao Li and Green Scale arrived in the Black-Corner Region, they were both somewhat surprised by the bustling scene of crowds.
"So many people…" Green Scale exclaimed.
The liveliness here surpassed even the auctions at the Mittel headquarters.
However, with more people, there were also more conflicts.
The Black-Corner Region was notoriously chaotic.
Even in Black Seal City, within the territory of the Eight Gates, conflicts would occasionally break out on the streets.
And the occurrence of conflicts was often accompanied by battles.
Only the death of one party could make the conflict disappear.
So, basically, both sides would argue, then fight, and then someone would die.
This was simply too normal in the Black-Corner Region.
Every day, hundreds, if not a thousand, people were killed due to conflicts.
But even so, many people still came, drawn by its reputation.
Because the Black-Corner Region was a paradise for these ruthless villains!
Green Scale was also somewhat unaccustomed to seeing such a chaotic scene.
"Let's go."
Xiao Li pulled her and walked towards the auction house…
The Black Seal City auction house was divided into ordinary seats and VIP seats.
After Xiao Li presented his Jia Nan Academy elder identity token, he was successfully led to a VIP room.
Compared to the noisy ordinary seats, the VIP seats were very quiet, with excellent soundproofing.
"Two distinguished guests, if you need anything, please let us know at any time."
The maid left a sentence and then exited the room, closing the door.
Guests entered one after another, and the entire auction hall was soon filled with people, a magnificent sight.
Even the VIP seats were all occupied, and some smaller forces, who usually could sit in the VIP section, now had to go to the ordinary seats below because there weren't enough VIP seats.
After all, today's attendees were all major forces; they weren't qualified enough.
Moreover, today's auction items were all very significant, so even in the ordinary seats, they were willing to attend.
"Dong—!"
With a crisp chime, the auction officially began!
