Chapter 190: Heart of the Ocean
"Ha ha, let's go," Yang Chen said, then urged Wolf Gallop forward, charging straight toward Yongbing City, with Yao Tianshang closely following.
"Stop!" At the city gate, two soldiers resembling those from Yongbing shouted, "No entry for non-Yongbing members! Each person must pay ten Purple Gold Coins!"
"Oh? Yongbing City is quite generous; to get people to join the Yongbing Guild, they resort to such measures. Ten Purple Gold Coins?" Yang Chen smiled.
"Impudent! This rule was set by Yongbing Wang; how dare you comment on it!"
"Ha ha, good! Yongbing is always the most straightforward and passionate Man," Yang Chen praised.
"Here, this is fifty Purple Gold Coins. As for the rest, buy yourselves some drinks!" Yang Chen tossed out fifty Purple Gold Coins.
"Thank you, brother. However, non-Yongbing Guild members are not allowed to bring adult Demon Beasts inside. Please be mindful of our rules in Yongbing City."
"This Luo Tianyou has so many rules," Yang Chen said helplessly. "Howling Sky, they won't let you in."
"Awoo~" Howling Sky growled discontentedly at the two Yongbing guards at the gate.
"The Howling Moon Wolf? I didn't notice before. Big brother, should we let them in?"
"Have you forgotten the rules of the Yongbing Guild?"
"Brother, I'm sorry; this rule really cannot be bent. How about this: you wait here for a while, and when a Red Tooth Puppet Brigade member comes back, you can temporarily join them?"
"Thank you for your kindness; here!" Yang Chen smiled and then tossed out a gray-green Emblem engraved with the words Shadow Kill.
"Brother is a member of Yongbing. You could have said it earlier, no need to pay the city entry fee. Brother, return the Purple Gold Coin... Brother, come and see if my eyes are deceiving me? Shadow Kill Puppet Corps Captain Emblem?"
"Big brother, what are you saying? Shadow Kill Puppet Corps Captain Emblem? How could it be, it really is Shadow Kill Puppet Corps Emblem!!" The two then walked respectfully in front of Yang Chen and said, "We meet Best Actor!"
"No need to be polite. Now I can bring a growth-type pet into the city, right?" Yang Chen asked.
"Please." The two stepped aside and said, "Please take back Best Actor." They handed over fifty Purple Gold Coin and Emblem to Yang Chen, who took the Emblem and said, "Then keep the Purple Gold Coin for you two to buy some drinks!" He then rode the wolf into the city.
"Brother, you stay here. I will report to the city lord."
"Okay, brother, hurry up." As soon as Yang Chen entered Yongbing City, one of the city guards followed him in. Yang Chen smiled slightly, knowing what he was there for, and did not stop him, walking casually while waiting for Luo Tianyou to send someone over.
"Yue'er, let's wander around." Yang Chen pulled Tian Mingyue off from Howling Sky and said.
"Mm." Tian Mingyue nodded in agreement.
"Purchasing the fur of Lightning Magic Fox, payment based on wear and tear!"
"Is anyone interested in Gale Demon Eagle cubs?"
"Five-Stage Golden Rhinoceros Demon Core is on sale."
"Seven-Stage Gale Demon Wolf fur, wear and tear is zero, is anyone interested?"
"Raging Wind Puppet Soldier Corps invites friends to hunt adult Howling Moon Wolf in the Wilderness Depths. Rewards will be paid based on contributions after success!"
"Tian Shang, are you really so indifferent about this?" Yang Chen glanced at the calm-faced Yao Tianshang and asked.
"Survival of the fittest, My Clan does not need useless people!" Yao Tianshang said coldly, clearly angered.
"Sigh, how are we humans any different from your kind? Those who fail to hunt the beasts become food for the beasts," Yang Chen lamented.
"I understand," Yao Tianshang replied. In the distance, a group of people gathered together; it was the Kuangfeng Yongbing team that had previously mentioned hunting the Howling Moon Sky Wolf.
"Young Master, look, isn't that a Howling Moon Sky Wolf? If you can either snatch it or buy it, we won't have to send our brothers deep into the wilderness," one of them suggested.
"Afu, you brat, you're really making things easier for me. Let's go over and talk to them," a young man in a splendid robe said with a glint of calculation in his eyes.
"Wait. Young Master, judging by the appearance of that Howling Moon Sky Wolf, it’s probably a seventh-tier beast. To control it, at least a peak Douzun or Dou Sheng is needed. It would be better to call one of the three offerings; it's not that I doubt your strength, but having an offering by your side would make your presence even more formidable!" Afu flattered.
"Alright, let's go. I'll invite Three Offerings from Zuiyue Tower. Afu, keep an eye on those three!"
"Yes, Young Master," Afu replied respectfully. Yang Chen and his companions had no idea that someone was plotting against them. On the third floor of Zuiyue Tower, a man in a splendid robe respectfully addressed an elderly man in his seventies or eighties, who was embracing two young women while drinking wine: "Three Offerings, today I would like to ask for your help to buy a beast. If they cooperate, that's fine; if not, I hope Three Offerings can teach them a lesson. Of course, the benefits afterward will not be lacking for you. I've already secured tonight's top courtesan, Guanger; regardless of success or failure, she will be yours."
"Li Feng, you are too polite. Come on, I'll go with you to take a look. Xiao Hong, wait for Third Master to return," the Third Elder said with a lewd smile.
"Third Master, please come back soon; I can't wait any longer," Xiao Hong said with a flushed face.
"Third Master, Xiao Cui is waiting for you too. Tonight, both of us sisters will serve you together."
"Ha ha, good! You two little vixens wait for Third Master to come back! Ha ha."
"Afu, where are those three?" Li Feng asked.
"Young Master, Third Master," Afu replied respectfully.
"Mm." San Ye nodded slightly.
"They are at the Treasure Pavilion, and I have sent someone to follow them," Afu said respectfully.
"Good job. After the matter is settled, I'll reward you with a night at the Drunken Moon Pavilion tonight, and the expenses will be on me," Li Feng said.
"Thank you, Young Master!" Afu smiled. With the Fighting Saint Expert Three Offerings around, this deal would surely succeed, and then he could spend a wonderful night with Xin'er at the Drunken Moon Pavilion! Not just once, but definitely four, no, seven times!
"Haha." At the Treasure Pavilion, Yang Chen commented, "Yue'er, I think that necklace looks better on you."
Upon hearing this, Tian Mingyue picked out a sky blue necklace from dozens of jewelry pieces in front of her and pushed the others aside, saying, "Boss, I'll take this one."
"Alright, miss has a good eye. This Heart of the Ocean is made from the Demon Core of an eighth-tier Demon Beast, the Ghosthead Shark. It is our shop's treasure!" The boss hurriedly said, exaggerating and embellishing the story about the so-called Heart of the Ocean.
"It is said that the Heart of the Ocean is the heart of the sea; how could it be made from just a mere Ghosthead Shark's Demon Core? Alright, boss, let's settle up," Tian Mingyue pointed out.
"Uh, okay." The boss suddenly felt awkward.
"Wait." Yang Chen stopped him.
"Sir, do you have any other requests?" The boss inquired.
"Pack up all these items that my wife has tried," Yang Chen said. The boss initially thought Yang Chen interrupted him because he didn't want to buy anymore; however, it turned out that Yang Chen wanted to buy even more. This guy was definitely a spendthrift; he could probably make a profit of several hundred thousand Purple Gold Coins from these dozens of accessories!
