Chapter 574: Bidding
West Sea Cityâs guards were more strict than Chu Tian had imagined!
Therefore he had to find a suitable reason to approach the West Sea Cityâs City Lord.
West Sea City was greatly different from the Blood Eagle Kingâs camp. Chu Tian could walk into the Blood Eagle Kingâs camp mainly because the Blood Eagle King himself wasnât that strong, so Chu Tian could run at any moment with the Transport Scroll. It was unclear how strong the West Sea Cityâs City Lord was, but based on the information from the Elven King, they were not weaker than the four giants. Chu Tian had to be discrete when dealing with this kind of Heaven Domain Expert.
Not being careful might mean failing to teleport.
This West Sea Cityâs City Lord was different from the Blood Eagle King!
The West Sea Cityâs power not did just represent the sea domain, but also a part of the Forest of Chaos!
Once the West Sea Cityâs relations were cut off, there would be many problems for the Forest Alliance. With all kinds of things to consider, Chu Tian had to be discrete, at least he couldnât anger the West Sea Cityâs City Lord.
Chu Tian had sold the herb at a preferential price to Old Mo and Old Mo temporarily accepted Chu Tian into his company, bringing him to the West Sea Cityâs celebration banquet. However, Old Mo kept telling him not to cause trouble in West Sea City, otherwise he wouldnât be able to protect him.
Of course Chu Tian agreed to him.
That night, their merchant group left for West Sea City.
West Sea Cityâs defenses and customs were very strict, they had to pass through several barriers and restrictions. They passed through groups and groups of Sea Race soldiers before finally entering West Sea City.
West Sea City was a city in a bay, with many of the Sea Race buildings being built right on the seafront and some buildings even being placed underwater. There were all kinds of residents here, going from the slow and firm turtle soldiers, to the fierce and violent shark soldiers, to even the whale soldiers who were at least ten meters tall.
There were also many shrimp and crab soldiers as well. In short, there were all kinds of sea races in the streets of West Sea City.
Just like spirit beasts, the sea races did look like marine species, but their figures were more like that of humans. It was not a fish or a crab walking upright, but rather more like a mix of marine species and humans.
West Sea City was worthy of being called the most beautiful city of the Forest of Chaos.
There was not only beautiful scenery here, it had a unique grace to it. Compared to the extravagant look of Dragon City, this place seemed more natural and artistic. Compared to the primitive Eternal Forest, this place was more bursting with life.
âWeâll stay the night here.â
A beautiful conch house appeared in front of Chu Tian and each one was a room that was around three meters tall. They were arranged based on the style of the continent races, so there was no feeling of discomfort at all.
The West Sea Cityâs City Lordâs birthday banquet would start tomorrow.
Chu Tian prepared to stroll around the neighbourhood.
âDo you see that giant tortoise shell in front of us?â Old Wu pointed his finger at a giant tortoise shell that was several dozen meters tall and over a hundred meters wide as he said, âThat is West Sea Cityâs famous Giant Turtle Bazaar. The Giant Turtle Chamber of Commerce is West Sea Cityâs largest company, we have traded with them before. You can go stroll over there if youâre interested in trading, perhaps youâll be lucky enough to pick up a treasure.â
Interesting.
Chu Tian directly went to the Giant Turtle Bazaar. The Giant Turtle Bazaar was bigger than he had imagined, but it was also a bit messy because it was separated into two parts. One part was for trading with the Giant Turtle Chamber of Commerce as an intermediary and the other part was for free trade. Trading with an intermediary was letting the company sell for them and free trade was open to all to trade in, letting them set up stalls to trade with.
The commodity inside the Giant Turtle Bazaar were all deep sea materials.
This was something that couldnât be found in the forest or on land, so bringing West Sea City into the alliance was very important to Miracle Commerce.
The little fox felt something and sniffed with its nose. It immediately pointed in a direction for Chu Tian, signalling that there was something good in that direction.
âYou found something?â
The little fox ran in front of a stall and the owner looked like a simple, honest turtle man. The turtle clan were generally tall and strong, with four rather small limbs. They had faces that seemed like those of humans, but their bodies were wrapped inside a natural hard shell. This hard shell was a part of their body and it was as important as a skeleton to humans. It would become stronger as they kept growing, being able to defend against more and more attacks.
The turtle clanâs stall had some things fished out of the deep sea. Other than some strange looking coral, there were also some old items. They looked like things that wouldnât attract peopleâs attentions, but the little fox smelled an unusual scent coming from it, which came from a bead that looked very normal.
Chu Tian intentionally picked up the bead in a casual manner and used his Divine Sense to simply look over it a few times, discovering some things. This should be an inner core from a great ancient demonic beast. A demonic beast was completely different from a demon beast, with the demonic beast inner core being worth a very high price. Looking at the aura coming from inside the core, it shouldnât be weaker than the Void Beast Chu Tian killed inside the Purgatory World space.
Of course.
This was because there was a thick layer of stone that appeared on its surface from being left for a long time. If oneâs Divine Sense wasnât strong enough, naturally one couldnât find its true value.
Chu Tian gave a soft cough and spoke in the human language to ask, âHow much is this stone?â
The turtle man was stunned, it was clear that he didnât understand the human language. Since he couldnât communicate, Chu Tian pulled out several pieces source stones. The turtle man shook his head seeing this and Chu Tian kept adding, but the turtle man kept shaking his head.
The two of them used this method to keep bargaining back and forth.
When Chu Tian added two hundred source stones, the turtle man finally showed a satisfied expression. When the two sides were about to trade, there was suddenly a very moving female voice that came from behind, âStop, I want this demonic beastâs inner core!â
Chu Tian was filled with anger.
Damn, who is ruining fatherâs good thing!
A girl who was very tall walked over, being over one meter and seventy five centimeter. Her body was nice and full, with snow white skin and long golden hair that were like waves on her back. Whether it was her aura or her appearance, she was completely perfect.
The most enticing thing were those long legs.
This girl had artistic legs that seemed to be carved out of crystals, having a graceful shape, not being thin or fat, perfectly fitting her tall stature. She gave off an aloor feeling, so this girl must be an outstanding person.
âWho are you?â Chu Tian had seen many beauties, so he wasnât surprised at all, âFirst come first serve, donât you know that? I have already bought this stone!â
The golden haired beauty revealed a look of disdain and was too lazy to reply to Chu Tian, âThis is the inner core of a ten thousand year deep sea Eight Claw Demon, it has a very high price. It is very important to me, so I will give fifty thousand source stones. Sell it to me.â
What? Fifty thousand!
The turtle man almost thought he heard wrong!
The golden haired beauty continued to say, âSome sly fish thought they could get it cheap, donât be tricked by him.â
Chu Tianâs temper instantly flared. A girl like you dares look down on me? If we speak in terms of money, would father lose to you? He didnât even think as he said, âYouâre taking out fifty thousand? Good, Iâll add another ten thousand! Sell to me!â
Chu Tian took out six heavy bags of source stones from his storage item.
The golden haired beauty was very stunned, âYouâŠ..â
The turtle man looked like he had been slammed by a hammer!
This simple dressed human actually raised the price by ten thousand source stones. To a normal cultivator, ten thousand source stones was a number they could never finish using in their entire life!
Chu Tian blinked innocently, âCan we make the trade now?â
âStop, isnât sixty thousand the starting price?â The golden haired beauty knit her brows before throwing seven bags onto the ground, âIâll take out seventy thousand source stones!â
Chu Tian didnât even think as he threw out another two bags, âEighty thousand!â
The golden haired beauty was a bit angry as she glared at him, âNinety thousand source stones!â
âA hundred thousand!â
âA hundred and ten thousand!â
âA hundred and twenty thousand!â
The two of them kept calling out prices, gradually surpassing the price of this inner core, but Chu Tian wasnât willing to retreat at all. I have nothing but money, want to bid with me! Simply seeking death!
The golden haired beautyâs face became more and more white.
She was not stupid, she could see this damn human was very rich. These ten thousand source stone bids seemed like nothing to him at all!
The golden haired beauty resisted the urge to charge at him before throwing another bag of source stones down. Her body was trembling a bit, âOne hundred and fifty thousand source stones!â
This was already three times the original price. Although the inner core was very valuable, one had to divide it into type. The Void Beast was a rare space attributed demonic beast, it wouldnât be strange for its inner core to be worth one-two hundred thousand. This inner core was just water attributed and its effects were quite weak, so the current price was a very high price.
âA trivial hundred and fifty thousand?â
Chu Tian disdainfully dug into his spatial bag, but he was suddenly stunned.
No more?
Chu Tian suddenly remembered that he had only brought one hundred and fifty thousand source stones. This to any other person or power was not a small amount, he never thought that he still wouldnât have enough.
He had to not have any more at this time!
The golden haired beauty saw that Chu Tian was out of money so she immediately said, âDonât be embarrassing if you donât have anymore! Quickly scram!â
âI canât take out anymore?â Chu Tian couldnât stand being looked down on by girls, âJust wait, give me a day. Wait for me to bring more source stonesâŠ..â
âWho wants to waste time with you!â The golden haired beauty gave a snort, âOne word, are you selling or not?â
The turtle man was already faint from seeing the source stones, a bit more or less didnât matter to him now. He just wanted to take the source stones away, so he quickly traded with the golden haired beauty.
The golden haired beauty looked at Chu Tian with disdain before turning with a snort.
He had lost to a girl!
This was simply the greatest shame for Chu Tian!
But what background did this girl have? She looked like a human based on her appearance, but Chu Tian could feel an abnormal aura coming from her, so she shouldnât be a normal human.
A person that could casually take out one hundred and fifty thousand source stones, they were definitely not a simple person!
Chu Tian had suffered this loss, so he wasnât in the mood to keep wandering. He went back to the coral house to sleep, waiting for tomorrow to see the West Sea Cityâs City Lord.
