Chapter 637

Ye Yu suddenly stood up inside the private booth, his tail behind him beginning to sway continuously.

That strange feeling grew stronger and stronger.

It was as if a voice deep within his heart was constantly tempting him forward.

But in the end, Ye Yu restrained the impulse.

Because he was very clear that, with his current Ascension Realm strength, he couldn’t cause any waves inside Conscience Workshop.

The huge gap in cultivation levels was something no technique could make up for.

Since entering, Ye Yu could already sense the presence of several Golden Demons and even Heavenly Demons.

If Ye Yu really dared to recklessly snatch something, a great demon would undoubtedly slay him on the spot.

That was beyond doubt.

So at this moment, without absolute strength, calmness was necessary.

But what puzzled Ye Yu even more was this strange feeling.

Why would such an inexplicable impulse arise for no reason?

It didn’t feel like someone else’s spell or divine power—it seemed more like instinct at work.

But if it really was instinct, what could possibly be stored backstage at the auction?

It couldn’t be bananas, right?

Thinking of that, Ye Yu’s mind went completely blank.

He hoped it really wasn’t bananas. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing. After all, he was a great Ascension Realm demon; to be charmed by a mere banana would be a real joke.

Fortunately, auctioneer Feng Tongyi didn’t make Ye Yu wait long and soon continued the introductions.

What was about to appear was truly extraordinary.

The life-blood of an ancient great demon!

Even after millions or tens of millions of years, it still overflowed with infinite vitality!

“Come forth, this item!”

As the words fell, a snake woman holding a tray swayed forward.

On the tray lay a yellow, amber-like object.

Contained within was a single drop of life-blood.

When this item appeared, Ye Yu almost lost control of his body.

Now he finally understood that the desire in his heart stemmed from this drop of life-blood.

He wanted it—he wanted it desperately!

Compared to Ye Yu’s frenzy, the demons seated in the hall seemed rather calm.

They were no novices and clearly knew how to watch and listen at such auctions.

Here’s the simplest key point:

Never trust what the auctioneer says too much, but rather pay attention to what they don’t say.

For example, Feng Tongyi just said this was a drop of great demon life-blood.

With a stage as big as Conscience Workshop, he must be telling the truth, but which great demon’s life-blood it was? That he didn’t say.

It must be known—demons are different from demons!

When an ordinary canine demon unexpectedly obtains a drop of life-blood from a canine great demon,

if the fusion goes well, it’s possible to soar and completely transform.

But that probability is low.

After all, opportunity always comes with danger.

Opposites repel!

Though ancient great demon life-blood is excellent, their terrifying life-blood can’t be endured by just any demon.

If a canine demon uses cat demon life-blood, repulsion will instantly occur, leading to body explosion and death.

Moreover, even demons of the same species risk death if repulsion occurs during fusion.

So whoever faces ancient great demon life-blood will remain calm.

Naturally, the demons’ reactions were not so excited.

A bulky ox demon asked in a deep voice, “Hey, which ancient great demon’s life-blood is this? Why not say clearly?”

“How are we supposed to buy like this?”

Auctioneer Feng Tongyi’s expression slightly changed.

He loudly said, “This drop of life-blood was just obtained, so we haven’t had time to identify it yet but decided to auction it!”

“As everyone knows, Conscience Workshop plays with heartbeats.”

“Starting bid is fifty thousand demon stones.”

“Interested demon kings can refine and identify it themselves.”

“From Conscience Workshop’s standpoint, this life-blood is definitely worth far more than the price!”

At these words, the hall burst into an uproar.

The demons immediately started discussing.

“Not knowing which great demon it belongs to, how are we supposed to use it? Are we being made to gamble our lives?”

“Yeah, your Conscience Workshop is really unfair this time! Why can’t you identify it before selling?”

“Fifty thousand demon stones for a drop of ancient great demon life-blood is cheap, but the risk is huge! If I can’t use it, I’d lose everything.”

“Hmph, you didn’t have time to identify? Sounds to me like you couldn’t identify it and are just selling it cheap!”

Listening to the demons’ chatter,

auctioneer Feng Tongyi tried to keep a smile but unconsciously glanced toward the highest booth.

There sat a handsome man.

This man was the owner of Conscience Workshop, Feng Zhenxin.

He frowned slightly.

Though he had expected the demons’ reactions, having all negative feedback still made him uneasy.

Damn it! Ignorant demons! What do you mean by saying my Conscience Workshop is unfair?

How rude!

But the truth was, if he really could identify which ancient great demon the life-blood belonged to, would he sell it for just fifty thousand demon stones?

At minimum, it would start at five million.

The only reason it was so cheap was complete inability to identify.

Feng Zhenxin slowly exhaled.

This drop of ancient great demon life-blood was an accidental item sent by a pig demon, who said they didn’t know whose it was.

When Feng Zhenxin inspected it, sensing the overwhelming demon power fluctuations, he immediately judged it must be the life-blood of at least a demon king-level great demon.

So he thought the sender was a clueless fool ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) who didn’t even know how to identify life-blood.

He casually set the starting price at fifty thousand demon stones and told them to get lost.

But unexpectedly, when he took a bit of this life-blood to compare in the Myriad Demon Library, no demon reacted.

This troubled Feng Zhenxin deeply.

Not being able to identify whose life-blood it was meant it couldn’t be sold for a good price, but he also couldn’t keep it.

Helpless, he had to put it up for auction hastily.

However, Feng Zhenxin had been holding auctions for so long; he wasn’t without skills.

He immediately took up the communication stone beside him and quietly said, “Activate plan B.”

Soon, a horse demon sitting in the stands stood up and shouted loudly, “Fifty thousand demon stones? Isn’t that basically giving it away? I’ll buy it now. Even if I can’t use it, I can get a sky-high price by identifying it later — definitely worth it!”

“Fifty thousand demon stones, I’m in!”

His words immediately drew the attention of all demons present.

Actually, what he said was not without reason.

If you can’t use it, just treat it as an investment!

Maybe it really can be sold at a sky-high price later!
