Chapter 22 Wholesale Soul Bones? A Strong-Willed Kitten!
Chapter 22 Wholesale Soul Bones? A Strong-Willed Kitten!
Skyfire City is a large city in the western part of the Sky Dou Empire. Unlike cities under other kingdoms, it is a city directly managed by the Sky Dou Empire, which also dispatches a Soul Douluo-level powerhouse to guard it.
As soon as Zhu Zhuqing entered the city, she was attracted by the bustling scene around her. Although the streets were crowded with people, they were not carefully divided and flowed in an orderly manner.
The shouts and calls coming from the surrounding area were full of local flavor.
"Senior, it's so lively here!"
It was much more lively than what Wang Ping had described on the oxcart!
And everyone was laughing and having a good time, unlike any other city she had ever been to before!
Zhu Zhuqing turned her head and saw that Ye Yan was no longer there, but had sat down at a barbecue stall and ordered drinks.
"Can I use these to pay?"
Ye Yan took out a pile of meat from ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, leaving the owner of the barbecue stall dumbfounded.
"Are you a Soul Master?"
"What's wrong with the Soul Master?"
"No, no, no, what I mean is, esteemed Soul Master, this is the commoners' area. Shouldn't someone of your noble status be in the northern area?"
Because the grand event in Skyfire City is very large, it is easy for conflicts to arise if civilians and soul masters are put together. Even if the entire Skyfire City guards patrol every day, it will not be enough to deal with these troubles.
It's better to separate the Soul Masters from the ordinary civilians. There will be virtually no disputes in the civilian areas, and the Guardian Army will only need to patrol the northern area.
"This event has so many rules. Don't Soul Masters usually come here?"
"It's not that there aren't any, but the common people here mostly have ordinary food and drinks. The northern area is different. There are high-end restaurants that can make delicacies with the meat of thousand-year-old soul beasts, and the winery of the Seven Treasures Merchant Guild that provides fine wines. There are also two major events: the Soul Arena and the Auction House. So basically, soul masters don't want to come here."
Ye Yan took a bite of the grilled skewer; these snacks were much tastier than those so-called gourmet foods.
As for auction houses, Ye Yan had never actually been to one.
After leaving behind a large piece of the flesh of the ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, Ye Yan led Zhu Zhuqing through the bustling street to the boundary between the north and south cities.
Although it was just a small gate, there were two city guards standing watch. When they saw Ye Yan and Zhu Zhuqing coming over, they stopped them.
"Who goes there! Only Soul Masters are allowed to enter the Northern City area!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing also released her martial soul, and two yellow soul rings appeared under her feet, proving her identity as a soul master.
Ye Yan didn't release his spirit rings, but the release of some spirit power made the two of them have some difficulty breathing.
"Please come in!"
The two men dared not delay any longer and invited the two men inside.
Both of them were Soul Masters, but this person could suppress them to this extent with just their soul power. Only someone with the strength of at least Soul Emperor could do that!
After entering the North City area, there were far fewer people on the streets compared to the South City area. The streets were very clean, and there were no stalls or similar things like they had seen before.
Even while walking on the street, you can feel the faint soul power emanating from the people around you.
"Senior, shall we head straight to the Soul Arena now?"
"No, I want to go to the auction house first."
Seeing Ye Yan's interested expression, Zhu Zhuqing wondered to herself, "Has the senior never been to an auction house before?"
These things are usually tied to the Soul Arena. Any city of a slightly larger size will have both, including Soto City where I stayed before.
In fact, Ye Yan had never seen one before. He had always been wandering on the edge of Douluo Continent, so how could there be big cities in those places?
Zhu Zhuqing then asked, "But senior, do you have any money on you?"
Previously, she had noticed that Ye Yan never seemed to pay when he drank; instead, he used items from his soul beasts to make transactions.
Although the items Ye Yan gave were all very valuable, this time it was an auction house, and they only accepted gold soul coins!
"No, but I can sell them."
Ye Yan and Zhu Zhuqing found a random place and took out his storage soul tool, which looked like a cloth bag. Ye Yan then took out many things he thought were valuable from it.
Most of it is the meat of ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, and it comes from those soul beasts that are known for their delicious meat. If you were to sell it, you could indeed make a good amount of money.
"But it's probably not as valuable as these things."
Ye Yan took out a bone-shaped object. At first, Zhu Zhuqing didn't pay much attention to it until the bone emitted soul power!
This is a soul bone!
Ye Yan took out three of the things that all Soul Masters dreamed of!
"These were all dropped by thousand-year-old soul beasts. I don't need them myself, so I'll take this opportunity to sell them."
Sold?
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were filled with longing as she looked at Ye Yan, as if to say something.
Senior, since you don't need it, give it to me! I won't mind!
Although it is a soul bone dropped by a thousand-year-old soul beast, if it were to leak out, it would be something that many people would want to obtain even if they exhausted their family fortunes!
"You want it?"
Ye Yan wasn't unaware of Zhu Zhuqing's gaze, but this was a soul bone dropped by a thousand-year-old soul beast.
What's the difference between this and trash?
Zhu Zhuqing was about to nod when she knew that if she nodded, her senior would definitely give her one.
But is that really all she wanted?
Zhu Zhuqing doesn't want anything she gets by relying on the charity of others!
She will definitely be able to obtain her own soul bone in the future through her own strength!
"Thank you, senior, but I still want to achieve that through my own abilities in the future!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Yan thought Zhu Zhuqing was more appreciative, as an ordinary person would not be able to resist such temptation.
Although the soul bones of a thousand-year-old soul beast are trash to Ye Yan, they are comparable to a huge fortune to Zhu Zhuqing, who is still a Great Soul Master.
I can give this girl some pointers in the future.
"Let's go then, let's enter."
Ye Yan led Zhu Zhuqing towards the auction house, but the same thing happened again; they were stopped before they even entered.
Please show your invitation. If you do not have an invitation, you will need to purchase a ticket to enter.
The ticket prices were thoughtfully displayed on the side; the outermost seats cost ten gold soul coins and did not qualify for auction items.
The middle-class seats inside cost 100 gold soul coins, and you need to prove that you have more than 10,000 gold soul coins to purchase them and be eligible to participate in the auction.
The front seats cost 1,000 gold soul coins, and you need to prove you have assets exceeding 100,000 gold soul coins to purchase them!
These auction houses are really making money.
"What if they're here to sell something?"
The guard looked the two men up and down. One reeked of alcohol, and the other looked quite young. What good items could such people possibly have for auction?
However, out of courtesy, he went in to announce his arrival, and after a while, he came out and said, "The manager invites you two in."
