The Great Ruler Cultivator
White Swan City Auction

In the morning, Shen Li who was still sitting on the front steps of the inn was approached personally by Zian Ma.

"Mr Shen Li, good morning" Zian Ma said.

"Ah, King Zian Ma, good morning back. What's the king to see me in the morning like this?" ask Shen Li.

"I just want to say hello to master Shen Li alone, and there might be one thing I want to say to Master Shen Li" Zian Ma replied.

"What is King Zian Ma?" Shen Li raised one of his eyebrows curious about Zian Ma's words.

"Listen Sir Shen Li, last night I and my family and the higher-ups of the Dragon Clan had a chance to conduct a deliberation. Sorry if I sassy Mr. Shen Li..."

"Before, we had actually known about the fact of the battle that eliminated the Huang Star some time ago. This does sound a little presumptuous, but I personally represent the entire ranks of the higher-ups and my family, wanting to have Master Shen Li become the protector of our Dragon Clan" King Zian Ma said that by cupping his hands while slightly bowing his body. He deliberately privately said this because of the dignity of a King, Zian Ma did not want his people or his soldiers to see this action.

While Shen Li, could only slightly smile then stood up to help King Zian Ma back up.

"Don't pay too much respect to me King Zian Ma, you are a King. It should not be that an authoritative King easily subdues his body" Shen Li said.

Zian Ma felt a little scared because Shen Li had not answered his request earlier, he could only hope that Shen Li would respond with good news.

"If you know about it, then I can't hide it from you anymore"

Srakk!!

Shen Li swung his hand making a space crack beside him.

"Come here" said Shen Li.

King Zian Ma could only hold back his curiosity with that thing that Shen Li had done.

Slowly from inside the gap, out one by one the youths numbered six people and one teenager. They all then stood behind Shen Li while bowing their heads in salute.

"Hail Young Master" said all of them who were none other than Shin, Fang Di, Chen Ba, Fei Luo, Gi Luan, Orvar, and the last one Sigurd.

King Zian Ma who was confused about all of them then looked towards Shen Li wondering. While Shen Li simply fell silent and said, "Change to your original form".

Swush!

Instantly the seven people turned into a form that was very, very well known by Zian Ma to the point of making him show his ridiculous expression.

"Hehe, old man. Have you forgotten all of us? It turns out that you are getting senile hihi." said Fang Di mockingly resuscitating Zian Ma's shock.

While Zian Ma showed his ugly expression of being ridiculed by Fang Di.

"Bad kid, it was you huhh. And the six of you, why can you be with Master Shen Li" asked Zian Ma.

"That's because we are all now devoted to Young Master" Celoteh Fang Di.

"Be quiet, I'm not talking to you" Zian Ma replied resentfully.

"I just answered your question, old man, huh" Fang Di snorted in annoyance as he made his pouting face look. Although Fang Di was a King, but his attitude was still that of a teenager. He is also known as a troublemaker among race leaders. Due to his genius and extremely high ability, he was able to reach the position of king and make him the youngest king among the Beast Man Race.

"What's the bad boy's word?" zian Ma asked the leaders of the other races.

"That's true, because they have all become my family" Shen Li said.

"Then for your offer to make me the protector of the Dragon Clan, maybe I will reject it" he continued.

Shen Li's reply suddenly made Zian Ma moody. He did not expect to hear that answer from her.

"But if you want to be my family, I will gladly protect you. Or rather we will protect each other" Shen's words were like a tidbit that ended Zian Ma's gloom. He was very happy about it and immediately agreed to an offer from Shen Li.

"Of course, it's with great pleasure that Mr. Shen Li" Zian Ma replied, looking like he wanted to cry.

"Hehh, you're such a crybaby old man." Fang Di's Eject.

"Be quiet you bad boy. Or you can take a gift from me" replied Zian Ma.

"Stop you two, aren't you ashamed of Young Master?" Sigurd.

"Pardon us young master, it's because he started" The two people spoke together while pointing blame at each other. Then stared at each other intently and faintly saw a small flash of lightning connecting their eyes

"Hehh, these two of you" Shen Li said with a warm smile, followed by the boisterous laughter of his other brother.

"I'll teach you a lesson later on bad boy." Said Zian Ma.

"Just try if you can, whether you're going to teach me a lesson, or if you're going to teach me a lesson" Fang Di replied with a sneaky grin.

"Have stopped the two of you, or I'll give you a present as well" Shen Li said.

While Zian Ma and Fang Di immediately nodded their heads quickly, feeling that the gift from Shen Li was a nightmare for them.

Shortly after, Ling Yue came with her mother to the rowdy-sounding place of Shen Li. They were both surprised to see the race leaders there.

"Good morning too" Shen Li replied.

"What's this a lot? If you want to talk better we go in for breakfast first" said the Empress.

"That's right. Let's go have breakfast first, the waiter may have prepared the meal" Take Zian Ma.

They all then went into the palace dining room, then stared at breakfast while discussing the small things. The other elders and higher-ups of the Dragon Clan were also there.

After he finished eating breakfast, King Zian Ma then said it would happen this morning. Zian Ma also said that now they were all Shen Li's family and his brother. The faces of all those who were there turned bright instantly upon hearing that from their King.

When they finished, they all began to disperse themselves to do their busy lives. Meanwhile Shen Li was invited to tour the city by Ling Yue, while his brothers were having small parties with Zian Ma.

Dragon City

Shen Li walked following Ling Yue who was at the front while stepping happily occasionally jumping up and down. Shen Li did not bother with Ling Yue's childish behavior, as he only followed the invitation from her in return for having brought her to this Dragon Clan.

"Master Shen Li, what are you thinking?" ask Ling Yue.

"It's not important, I just want to look around" she replied.

"Well then, la lala lala...." Ling Yue then continued those silent footsteps while humming a little.

"Ah I forgot." muttered Ling Yue then went back to Shen Li, "Master Shen Li?"

"What's wrong?"

"Are you interested in the auction?" ask Ling Yue.

"Auctioneers? Right, I have never been to an auction. Is there an auction place?" shen Li replied asking.

"There is indeed an auction place belonging to the Dragon Clan, but it will not hold an auction yet. All I want to say is the auction in White Goose Town, are you interested? because I heard there is an extremely valuable item going up for auction" Ling Yue explained.

"really that? When is the auction?" ask Shen Li.

"Next week. Is master Shen Li coming? if so then master can take me, hehehe." said Ling Yue.

"Alright then, I'll come along" Shen Li said.

The two of them finally continued to walk around Dragon City until the afternoon, occasionally they also bought light snacks along the way. Of course it was because of Ling Yue, Shen Li was a little astonished at Ling Yue's appetite which turned out to be so big. Once also, one of the satay sellers was made a club because Ling Yue ordered as many as a thousand skewers.

Time continues to run, seconds change minutes, minutes change hours, and so on until it does not feel the time of one week has passed.

Shen Li and Ling Yue were currently already in White Goose City after going through the examination. The two of them then continued on their way to the auction venue which was in the center of the city.

"Excuse me princess. Does the princess want to follow the auction?" ask one of the guards there respectfully.

"Of course, do you think I want to eat?" reply Ling Yue was upset.

"Pardon our mistake princess, please come in" the guard said as he received a special VIP plate, but stopped Shen Li's steps.

"What are you guys doing, he came with me" Ling Yue said slightly snapping so that it became the center of attention of the other visitors.

"Sorry princess, the rules at our auction venue are one VIP plate for one person only" the guard said.

"You guys.."

"It's okay, I'll pay for it myself. How much does it cost to go inside?" Shen Li's words stopped Ling Yue.

"2000 soul crystals" said the guard.

"You go first, I will catch up with you inside" Shen Li told Ling Yue to enter first.

While Ling Yue felt guilty and was reluctant to leave Shen Li, but due to the insistence from her, she could not help but relent.

After Ling Yue left, Shen Li then hurriedly asked the guard.

"I will pay for it, but I would like to ask you to help me take me to the goods sales place" Shen Li said.

The guard hesitated a little, but seeing Shen Li's quite luxurious clothes it no longer hesitated.

"All right, I'll take you"

"This is accept, the rest is for you" Shen Li said as he gave the bag of 3000 soul crystals.

"D-this?!!" said the guard stammered.

"That's it, now deliver me"
