Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 1474: Chapter 96: Stan’s Dire Nemesis

The next morning, Su Xiao sat up from bed and checked the timer, noting that there were about 50 minutes left before the auction started.

After washing up, Su Xiao left his exclusive room and headed straight for the commercial street. Half an hour later, he arrived in front of the venue in the business district.

This auction was not large in scale but had a threshold. The intentions of Divine Emperor, Blood Gate, and Black Sail were clear: quality over quantity. Auctioning a legendary item was equivalent to selling multiple blue or purple quality items.

Just as Su Xiao was about to enter the venue, he was stopped by two contractors who explained that the venue was temporarily closed to outsiders and required either any form of auction invitation or over 800,000 Paradise coins.

Clearly, Su Xiao had neither of these options. He wouldn’t say something embarrassing like ’I’m very familiar with your leader,’ so he contacted Crazy Fox. Crazy Fox was likely too busy and didn’t respond to Su Xiao for a while, so he contacted Divine Emperor.

A few minutes later, Divine Emperor walked out from the venue, greeted Su Xiao warmly, and the two entered the venue together. It turns out Crazy Fox was busy and forgot about the invitations.

As Su Xiao entered the venue and turned around, Divine Emperor was nowhere to be seen. He vaguely heard him mention he had to excuse himself.

Although Su Xiao didn’t have an invitation, he knew Crazy Fox had reserved a seat for him, which was number 16 if he remembered correctly.

The seat was excellent. Due to their good personal relationship, Crazy Fox reserved him a seat in the front row.

”Hey.”

Su Xiao was poked by a finger while he was engrossed in solving a puzzle game. Turning his head, he saw Gulu sitting in the seat next to him, with a little fatty standing nearby.

This little fatty was an ’old acquaintance’ of Su Xiao’s. Su Xiao had slashed at him in the Holy Grail World but failed to kill him as he escaped. The little fatty belonged to the Blood Gate Adventure group, and it was clear Gulu had taken the little fatty’s seat number 17.

”Got something to say?”

Su Xiao looked at Gulu.

”How did you sneak in?”

Gulu, with a lollipop in her mouth, was no longer an undying nemesis after the previous War World. They mostly just found each other annoying but couldn’t do much about it.

”Walked in openly.”

”Eh? I thought you forged an invitation too.”

”...”

Su Xiao couldn’t quite figure out how to evaluate Gulu; she just had no scruples, doing whatever she wanted.

”So you forged a fake invitation just to get in here?”

Su Xiao looked at Gulu, surprised.

”Yeah.”

”Is there something in the auction you desperately want?”

”Not sure. I won’t bid on anything. Giving Divine Emperor and Blood Gate a transaction fee is just aiding the enemy. Do I look stupid to you?”

Gulu tilted her head to indicate she still had some principles. At this moment, Divine Emperor and Stan stepped out from the backstage, followed by a group of people, engaged in conversation.

As Divine Emperor and Stan reached the front row, they saw Su Xiao and Gulu. In the presence of hated enemies.

Stan and Su Xiao had enmity dating across multiple worlds, while Divine Emperor despised Gulu as she had killed his sister. Moreover, Divine Emperor and the Blood Gate Adventure Group had hunted Gulu in the Naruto World.

”Why did you come here then...”

Su Xiao just glanced at Stan and ignored him. He was here to sell items and because of his friendship with Crazy Fox.

”I’ve got nothing better to do lately, just here to annoy Divine Emperor and Blood Gate.”

Gulu raised her fair hand and smiled as she greeted Divine Emperor and Stan. Their expressions weren’t too pleasant.

”Idiot.”

Su Xiao continued to indulge in his game. Hearing Su Xiao call her an idiot, Gulu bared her little tiger fangs. Divine Emperor and Stan slightly paused, looking at Su Xiao with surprise.

”You’re the idiot! Your whole family is idiotic! Argh, infuriating! I’ll bite you to death.”

After a bout of venomous words from Gulu, Su Xiao remained calm in solving his puzzle game, while Gulu realized her words were ineffective, gnashing her teeth in frustration.

Seeing Su Xiao and Gulu’s interactions, Stan suddenly felt uneasy for a simple reason: He understood Gulu’s prowess. She had evaded two large adventure group’s hunts when she was a third-tier contractor, and now that Gulu had advanced to the fourth tier, they wouldn’t easily provoke her.

Observing Gulu’s frustrated appearance, clearly unable to do much to Su Xiao but only trash-talk, it dawned on Stan that the Night of Beheading had become Blood Gate’s main concern.

”Hey, come on. You provoke me and still expect to play your game in peace?”

Gulu began to harass Su Xiao, compelling him to set aside his tablet.

”Gulu, I have an interesting proposal.”

Su Xiao’s expression grew serious, causing Gulu, who was grabbing Su Xiao’s collar, to pause.

”What is it?”

”In the next world, let’s team up to kill Blood Gate’s people.”

”Oh?”

Gulu released Su Xiao’s collar; she was evidently intrigued.

”What’s... this development.”

Divine Emperor’s gaze darted between Su Xiao, Gulu, and Stan, clearly not following their logic.

”You’re not planning to kill me during this opportunity, right? Don’t think I don’t know about that item you have. I sensed it during the War World.”

”Forget it then.”

The negotiation broke down. Su Xiao wasn’t surprised Gulu sensed he had the complete Demon Hunting Suit since the Demon Hunting Ring was initially with Gulu. She certainly knew about the Demon Hunting Suit.

Stan did not speak throughout, turning away to head to the side seats. Once he turned, a smile appeared on his face, the reason for which nobody knew.

The auction commenced. Originally, Divine Emperor and Stan had high hopes for this auction, but with Gulu causing trouble, it left them feeling rather uncomfortable, while Gulu was in a good mood.

Gulu kept a smile throughout, occasionally chatting with Su Xiao or trying to extract information from him.

The auction soon began, with the first item being an enhanced+13 legendary pendant, provided by the Black Merchant. According to Divine Emperor and Stan, they planned to purchase this internally, but the Black Sail Merchant Group declined.

In under two minutes, a fifth-tier contractor bought the pendant, not with Paradise coins—since no one carries such a large amount—but exchanged for a wealth of rare resources. With the Black Sail Merchant Group involved, these rare resources could be converted into more Paradise coins, earning the three parties a fortune.

The second item was a bottle of brown liquid, a bloodline-related item, which Su Xiao had no interest in.

The third item was the Axe Master Level 10 scroll provided by Su Xiao.

”The attributes of the third item are roughly as follows. The seller’s request is three [Grandmaster’s Power] fragments, along with Soul Crystals or Paradise coins.”

The host on stage wasn’t very professional; she was Matcha, the chief healer of the God Emperor Adventure Group. This type of auction didn’t require a very professional host, as it would instead make people feel awkward. Everyone present knew each other well enough not to require pomp and circumstance.

”Here.”

A robust man in the back row raised his hand, indicating he was willing to offer the minimum price, which was three [Grandmaster’s Power] fragments.

No one else placed a bid. The reason was simple: [Grandmaster’s Power] fragments were very precious. Unless there was an intent to cultivate important new team members, few would use [Grandmaster’s Power] fragments to purchase a Master-level scroll.

Things went unexpectedly smoothly. After expending substantial resources, Su Xiao’s Sword Technique was set to advance in tier.

The auction quickly concluded, with the Axe Master Level 10 scroll successfully sold, while Jungle Hunting remained unsold.

Upon enhancing his Sword Technique, Su Xiao prepared to return to the real world, planning to relax for a few days before embracing a new Derivative World. As for the arena, he had been fighting consistently recently, so it was time to unwind.
