My wife who comes from a wealthy family-Chapter 873 - 874 Selling the Black Dragon

"Young Master Ye, is this your first time visiting the Ten Thousand Beast Sect?" Elder Huang asked curiously.

"Yes." Ye Wudao nodded.

"Haha, I wonder what level of mythical beast Young Master Ye is interested in purchasing? Our Ten Thousand Beast Sect prides itself on the quality of our beasts—top-notch. Whether as a mount or for guarding your property, they always garner rave reviews!" Elder Huang said.

Roar!

At that moment, a crimson unicorn horse suddenly let out a furious roar toward Ye Wudao, full of untamed wildness!

"This is the Crimson Unicorn Horse, a mid-level True Pill realm mythical beast. The price is 280 Spirit Crystals!" Elder Huang introduced.

The price isn’t too high!

Ye Wudao nodded. With his level of strength, he still wouldn’t deign to consider a mere mid-level True Pill realm mythical beast.

"Young Master Ye, do you see this savage boa? This boa has the bloodline of a flood dragon and is extremely ferocious. It’s a late-stage True Pill realm beast that even three late-stage True Pill cultivators can’t easily subdue. Its price is 450 Spirit Crystals!" Elder Huang pointed at a black-striped savage boa several dozen meters long and introduced.

Ye Wudao glanced at it and frowned: "Too ugly!"

As the Kunlun Sect’s young master, buying a savage boa as a mountain guardian—

It would simply lower his prestige!

The Kunlun Sect isn’t some shady demonic sect either!

An acclaimed and righteous major sect!

It must be a majestic, awe-inspiring mythical beast to guard the mountain!

"Young Master Ye doesn’t even fancy this savage boa? Truly, your financial prowess is remarkable!" Elder Huang chuckled and pointed to a magnanimous, ferocious mountain demon ape: "This one is called the Mountain Demon Ape. It’s at the peak of the True Pill realm! Unmatched strength and ruthless temperament make it excellent as an attack-focused mount. However, its price is quite high—1,200 Spirit Crystals!"

Roar!

The Mountain Demon Ape growled at Ye Wudao and continuously pounded its chest with its fists, full of provocative intent!

"Beast, restrain your arrogance!" Elder Huang bellowed angrily and pulled out an iron whip from his person, lashing it fiercely onto the Mountain Demon Ape’s body.

The Mountain Demon Ape cried out in pain and immediately fell silent, not daring to protest further.

"Are there any beasts stronger than this?" Ye Wudao asked.

Elder Huang’s eyes lit up, exclaiming in astonishment: "Judging from Young Master Ye’s tone, could it be you’re looking to purchase a Transformation Realm mythical beast?"

"Haha, could I trouble you to take me to have a look?" Ye Wudao asked.

"Of course!" Elder Huang said, his face full of excitement.

As one of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect’s top salespeople, Elder Huang earns a five percent commission on every transaction he completes!

And Transformation Realm mythical beasts cost several thousand, even tens of thousands of Spirit Crystals!

A single deal could net him a significant profit!

Deep within the beast market!

Here, every mythical beast was confined to massive steel cages, their limbs bound by heavy iron chains, with guards assigned to watch over them!

"Young Master Ye, please take a look at this mythical beast..." Elder Huang gestured toward a burly and intimidating golden ox with horns: "This one is an early-stage Transformation Realm mythical beast, known as the Flood Horn Golden Ox—a hybrid of flood dragons and golden oxen. It possesses the speed of flood dragons and the strength of oxen. Naturally, its price is no trifling matter—3,898 Spirit Crystals!"

Hiss!

Nearly 4,000 Spirit Crystals!

The prices of Transformation Realm mythical beasts are indeed astounding!

"Is there anything even better?" Ye Wudao asked.

"Yes, yes!" Elder Huang said eagerly; this young master even turned down the Flood Horn Golden Ox—this deal was bound to be lucrative!

Meanwhile.

Deep within the beast market.

Outside a massive steel cage!

Inside the cage was a bald, burly man, lying in the corner—covered in wounds, trembling.

The burly man was none other than Long Mie!

Standing outside the steel cage was a young girl in purple clothing, tears streaming down her face: "Big guy, I’m sorry—this is all my fault. You must hate me, right?"

"Miss Zi Ling, you shouldn’t feel guilty. You saved me, and I’m eternally grateful. How could I ever hate you?" Long Mie comforted her.

"Wuuu, Big Guy! I never expected my father to sell you! Wait for me—I’ll definitely find a way to get you out!" Zi Ling cried, her face wet with tears, as she glanced back at him again and again while leaving.

"Miss Zi Ling, you must leave quickly! If anyone finds out, you’ll face punishment too!" Long Mie said, his face pale and his voice hoarse.

Just then, a group led by an elder from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect approached.

The leader of the group was a flamboyantly dressed young master with fiery red hair. He strutted in surrounded by his entourage, exuding arrogance!

"Young Master Chou, this is presently the most expensive, top-grade mythical beast up for sale in our Ten Thousand Beast Sect beast market!" An elder gestured toward the steel cage containing Long Mie.

"What’s with you Ten Thousand Beast Sect people? A bald guy being touted as a top-grade mythical beast?"

"Are you trying to fool our young master?" Several of Chou’s henchmen scowled menacingly.

"Not at all, not at all!" The Ten Thousand Beast Sect elder shook his head hastily: "Gentlemen, you may not know—this beast is a dragon, and a high-grade black dragon at that..."

What?!

Upon hearing this, Young Master Chou’s eyes sparkled: "It’s really a dragon?"

"Absolutely true!" The elder nodded emphatically before angrily shouting at Long Mie behind bars: "Show your true form immediately!"

Long Mie’s gaze turned icy.

"Beast, are you looking for death?" The elder took out a button, causing the purple collar around Long Mie’s neck to crackle with electricity.

"Arghhh!" Long Mie cried out in anguish, his face contorting in pain!

"Reveal your true form now!" The elder barked.

A monstrous black dragon, stretching hundreds of meters long, appeared within the enormous steel cage. Its blood-red eyes radiated terror, and it exuded overwhelming Dragon Qi!

"Holy crap, it really is a legendary dragon!"

"Young Master, we’ve come to the right place!" Chou’s entourage exclaimed excitedly!

"Good, good, good!" Young Master Chou said with excitement, immediately asking: "How much for this dragon?"

"Although this dragon is only at the early-stage Transformation Realm, it is still a dragon—its potential is limitless. Therefore, its price is exceedingly high: 180,000 Spirit Crystals!" The elder said.

What? freēwēbηovel.c૦m

180,000 Spirit Crystals!

Upon hearing the price, Young Master Chou’s expression changed!

"Holy crap, 180,000 Spirit Crystals!"

"That’s outrageously expensive!" Chou’s henchmen looked shocked!

"Young Master Chou, are you experiencing financial difficulties? If so, we also have several late-stage Transformation Realm mythical beasts priced only at a few thousand Spirit Crystals—very good value!" The elder explained.

"Ridiculous! As the First Villain of Evil Person Island, I lack for nothing—except money..." Young Master Chou declared arrogantly.

"Exactly! Our Evil Person Island is masterful at robbery and pillaging—do we look like we’d ever lack money?"

"Money is just a number to us on Evil Person Island!" Chou’s entourage continued their brazen boasts.

"Indeed, indeed!" The elder smiled deferentially.

"However, 180,000 Spirit Crystals is far too high—could you lower it a bit?" Young Master Chou said.

"Young Master Chou, my authority allows me to reduce the price by at most 5,000 Spirit Crystals," the elder replied.

Young Master Chou raised three fingers: "How about a reduction of 30,000? I’ll pay immediately!"

This!

The elder’s expression faltered before he responded: "30,000 is simply too much of a reduction... Allow me to consult with upper management and give you an answer shortly!"

"Go quickly!" Young Master Chou snapped impatiently: "I’ll be waiting for your reply!"

The elder rushed off in a frenzy.

Meanwhile.

Not far away!

Ye Wudao had already purchased two mythical beasts!

One was a massive fly covered entirely in purple feathers, radiating the aura of a flood dragon!

The other was a rhinoceros clad in golden armor, weighing at least ten thousand pounds!

"Young Master Ye truly has keen judgment! This Flying Flood Eagle, though at the mid-stage Transformation Realm, possesses limitless potential—it could break into the late-stage Transformation Realm within a decade!" The elder from the Ten Thousand Beast Sect said with a smile: "As for this Golden-armored Rhinoceros, though it’s also a mid-stage Transformation Realm mythical beast, its defensive capabilities rival those of late-stage Transformation Realm beasts!"

"What’s the price?" Ye Wudao asked.

"The Flying Flood Eagle’s price is 20,000 Spirit Crystals, while the Golden-armored Rhinoceros costs 10,000 Spirit Crystals—totaling 38,000 Spirit Crystals!" The elder answered.

Ye Wudao glanced at the money he had in hand. The old swindler had given him 40,000 Spirit Crystals. Combined with the few thousand he had, it was more than enough!

"These two mythical beasts will do." Ye Wudao said.

"Absolutely, Young Master Ye!" The elder said, brimming with excitement; selling these two beasts alone would earn him several hundred Spirit Crystal commissions.

At that moment, a terrifying roar resounded!

Roar!

Upon hearing the familiar sound, Ye Wudao’s expression changed, asking: "That’s the sound of a dragon?"

"Young Master Ye certainly has a sharp ear—yes, that’s indeed a dragon’s roar!" The elder nodded.

Ye Wudao was stunned: "Does the Ten Thousand Beast Sect sell dragons?"

"Haha, the Ten Thousand Beast Sect hasn’t sold a dragon in almost a century. This one was only acquired by chance not long ago! Is Young Master Ye interested?" The elder replied.

"Let’s take a look!" Ye Wudao said.

"Certainly; this way, please!" The elder gestured for him to follow.

Meanwhile.

Inside the largest steel cage in the beast market!

"Congratulations, Young Master Chou, on purchasing this black dragon for 168,800 Spirit Crystals! Young Master Chou, here’s the collar’s control button—it cannot be removed. With this, you can administer powerful electric shocks that no beast can withstand!" The elder said as he handed over a purple button to Young Master Chou.

Roar!

The black dragon roared angrily at Young Master Chou, who immediately pressed the button!

"Arghhh..." The black dragon let out agonizing wails, its eyes still filled with resentment and hatred.

"Damn it! How dare you show such hostility to your owner? I’ll beat you to death!" Young Master Chou picked up a thorned iron whip and began lashing it mercilessly at Long Mie.

Bang!

Bang!

The black dragon’s body became tattered and bloody!

"A dragon, huh? How dare it bare its fangs at its master?"

"Hit it harder, Young Master!" Chou’s henchmen jeered sharply and cruelly.

Young Master Chou continued to swing the thorned whip violently, striking the black dragon over and over.

At that moment, Elder Huang arrived with Ye Wudao.

"Young Master Ye, please look—this is the only dragon currently up for sale in our Ten Thousand Beast Sect!" Elder Huang said.

Ye Wudao focused his gaze, and his pupils contracted sharply!

A black dragon!

Wait!

This is Long Mie!

Seeing the red-haired youth savagely whipping Long Mie with the thorned whip, Ye Wudao’s rage boiled over like a tempest as he roared furiously: "Stop!"
