Chapter 77: Female Soul Master Mutual Aid Society member, why must I
280,000, the VIP in booth 45 bid 280,000, any higher?
280,000 once, 280,000 twice...
Upon seeing the rabbit-eared girl actually being sold for such a sky-high price, the auctioneer's tone also rose several decibels on site.
The higher the price of the item sold, the more reward she, the auctioneer, can obtain.
If she completes the designated auction task, the auction house's organizers can even restore her freedom.
That way she wouldn't have to fear that one day a noble old man would take a liking to her and bring her back as his personal property.
"I bid 285,000!"
Just as the noble old man who had bid 280,000 was feeling smug, pondering whether to have the rabbit-eared girl wear black or white silk when he returned later.
A voice sounded beside Bai Ran.
It wasn't Ning Rongrong shouting.
But rather a "young woman".
She looked about thirty years old.
"Yo, what's an old woman meddling in this for? 290,000!"
The VIP in booth forty-five was clearly unhappy,
especially upon hearing that a woman was competing with him, which made him even more displeased.
If it were a fellow enthusiast competing for the same taste, seeing such a high price, the noble old man would feel the pinch and stop raising his bid, but a woman coming out to bid? If you let her win,
would my face still be intact? Going back, I'd probably be laughed to death by my friends.
"295,000."
The female soul master's voice began to lose its vigor; obviously, the amount of gold soul coins she could produce was running low.
"300,000! If you've got the guts, old woman, keep raising; exceed this number and I won't contend with you."
As the VIP in booth forty-five finished speaking, the female soul master clenched her fists tightly.
Obviously, 300,000 gold soul coins was not only the limit the booth forty-five VIP could bear, but also all she could produce.
However, as a member of the Female Soul Master Mutual Aid Society, how could Maliya stand by and watch this rabbit-eared girl fall into becoming the noble old man's plaything?
Especially since her own martial soul is also a rabbit-type spirit beast; although the saying goes "girls help girls," in the eyes of most girls it's just a empty slogan,
but Maliya truly puts it into action.
"Friend, can you lend me 10,000 gold soul coins?"
Maliya looked toward Bai Ran, who was sitting not far to the left.
"That's not right, I don't even know you."
Ten thousand gold soul coins is also a huge sum; lending it to a complete stranger she didn't know at all, Bai Ran wasn't that generous.
"I am Maliya, the newly appointed Black-clad Archbishop of the Heaven Dou City Spirit Hall Sanctum."
"Fine, I'll lend it to you, I'll lend it to you."
Seeing her produce her identity, as if not lending to her would seem to look down on the Spirit Hall, and to avoid being entangled by Spirit Hall personnel, following the principle of "better to do less than more," Bai Ran simply lent it to her.
Finally, relying on that ten thousand gold soul coins, Maliya also successfully won the rabbit-eared girl slave.
……
As that Spirit Hall Black-clad Archbishop was about to leave with the rabbit-eared girl, Bai Ran stopped them and said, "Um, could you write me an IOU?"
Without any proof, proactively going to the Spirit Hall Sanctum to collect payment, Bai Ran feared being seen as a troublemaker by the Spirit Hall people.
"An IOU? What IOU?"
Maliya began to play dumb. "You weren't just asking me to borrow ten thousand gold soul coins, were you? That amount is not small; writing an IOU would also serve as a guarantee."
For some reason, Bai Ran suddenly had a bad feeling.
This girl, she wouldn't turn face and deny the debt, would she?
"Hey kid, did you get it wrong? I'm a Black-clad Archbishop of the Spirit Hall; could I ask a child like you for a loan?"
As a member of the Female Soul Master Mutual Aid Society, Maliya could spend all her savings to rescue a fallen girl, but you're a male.
Sorry, I could never lend you money.
Besides, as a male, you should be magnanimous; after all, suffering a loss is a blessing.
Look, you're so blessed.
"I have an 8 a. m. class; it's not that I borrowed your gold soul coins, you managed to snag that beast-eared slave!"
Bai Ran regretted lending the gold soul coins to the girl; Bai Ran said: "Your time is running out."
"I borrowed it by my own ability, why should I repay it."
"Also, kid, do you know I'm a Soul Saint? Considering I'm in a good mood."
"Get as far away as possible; seeing you males makes me feel nauseous."
Bai Ran conceded; clearly, just now when she asked me to borrow gold soul coins, her tone wasn't like this.
"Fine, fine, fine, a Soul Saint? Come on, come on, come over here, I have some business with you."
Bai Ran's palm produced a small flag, after applying all buffs to himself,
he directly grabbed the Black-clad Archbishop's shoulder with one hand.
"Don't lay hands on me, you're taking advantage..."
"Eh, wrong, wait, what are you trying to do?"
Maliya discovered she could hardly move.
Maliya: "What the heck, as a Soul Saint, even without unleashing my martial soul, I shouldn't be holdable by a kid."
Just as Maliya thought, activating her beast martial soul would surely suppress this kid, she actually found it had no effect at all.
Even because of her struggle, Bai Ran directly grabbed her hair and dragged her even faster into the deserted alley beside.
Coming out, Ning Rongrong, who happened to see this scene, hurriedly followed up.
"Nope, Da Sharan, what do you want to do! Don't be impulsive!"
It's just ten thousand gold soul coins; if you don't repay, you don't repay, no need to let this woman use her body to offset the debt.
Besides, with her mature demeanor, she might have already gone through countless battles.
Ning Rongrong: Don't reward her, you idiot! You're a vigorous little virgin, definitely don't let yourself be taken advantage of by an old auntie.
In the alley, "You really want to default on the debt?"
Bai Ran asked one last time.
"Little bro, what did you bring me here for? Could it be that you want to...?"
Facing a boy who is stronger than her but younger, Malia said it's not unacceptable.
After all, in this situation, it feels like a domineering CEO forcing love.
Malia felt that even if Pope Bibi Dong, Your Excellency, encountered such a scene, she'd have to submit.
