Chapter 1876 Purgatory Heaven (1/2)
”Everyone should know that the pharmaceutical talents of the Gana are connected with their power. The purer their blood, the greater their medicine becomes. This Holy Lady is not of the royal family, but her blood is as pure as it gets. She is undoubtedly the best out of all the Gana. Her starting price is...” The Kao kept on speaking.
The people around all started shouting out their bids, which annoyed the auctioneers. The clamor shocked Han Sen quite a bit.
There were only a few dozen Gana still waiting to be sold, which put pressure on the bidders who still hadn't secured a Gana. And this was the Holy Lady, so she was a hot item.
Gold Jade King had not been actively bidding in the previous auctions. He had seemed to be waiting for a Gana of pure blood.
Han Sen, seeing the lady on stage, looked awfully worried.
The lady was chained up, and her snake tail was stiffened so she would stand and not fall over. She looked completely emotionless. Her eyes were closed, revealing her long eyelashes.
Her pretty lips trembled. It looked as if she was a nun who was in the midst of dire prayers. The noise around her could not cause her expression to falter.
”Something is wrong.” Han Sen looked around again. The Gana that had been bought were all doing the same. They had closed their eyes, and they were in the midst of prayer.
No matter how Han Sen looked at them, they seemed to be praying. Even the way they moved their mouths suggested this. Their voices were quiet, and Han Sen could barely hear them. They were not using the common language, however, so Han Sen was unsure what they were saying.
”King, the Gana are mumbling something. What are they doing?” Han Sen informed Gold Jade King. He was feeling very nervous about it all.
Gold Jade King looked at the Gana and said, ”This is the language of the Gana. They are praying for the assistance of their god. If their deified elite was here, their prayers might actually help. But that elite betrayed the Gana long ago, and they might not respond to the prayers.”
Gold Jade King went back to ignoring Han Sen and bidding on the lady.
Many Kings were elites, and they were fearless. Even though there was danger in being there, they wouldn't stop. They would try to grab whatever resources they could first.
Han Sen was not that strong, and he was afraid of what might happen. He listened to Gold Jade King's words and got even more nervous.
”Icebird Duke, let's go,” Han Sen said, standing up.
”Why?” Icebird Duke was able to sense something was wrong, but not with the clarity Han Sen could.
Han Sen did not have the time to explain. He walked away and said, ”I am uncomfortable. Let's walk and talk, shall we?” Icebird Duke was confused, but she still stood up and followed Han Sen out of the hall.
Before they made it outside, however, the lady being sold on the stage raised her voice. Emotionlessly, she called out, ”Hearts like glass, bodies like mirrors, fall to hell and become dust. If the heart has heaven, only then will you be free.”
”If the heart has heaven, only then will you be free.” The praying Gana all began to open their eyes. Their voices bellowed over the proceedings of the auction.
”Shut up.” A Kao guard hit one of the girls.
