Wang Baole's heart began to pound. He shot to his feet, and before he could urge Kim Do-myung to complete the transaction, Kim Do-myung was already heading toward the first floor.
"We're finished …." thought Wang Baole, slapping his forehead. Sighing, he hurried after Meng Hao, his mind racing as he tried to think of a way to salvage the situation. However, it didn't take long for them to reach the first floor. Wang Baole took a deep breath, and realized that even if he tried to salvage the situation … it would be useless.
The entire first floor was completely different from what they had seen before. The storage area … was empty. It wasn't just the medicinal pills and spirit treasures. Even the shelves were gone. There was a long hole in the ground where the wall had sunk in. Now, the wall was gone. Clearly, it had been dug out ….
At the same time, many of the surrounding walls had also collapsed, revealing the other storage rooms. They were also in a mess, and most of them were empty.
If that were all there were to it, it wouldn't be a big deal. However, the spirit treasures that lined the walls of the main hall were gone. The curtains made from spirit threads were gone as well. The lamps made from spirit stones were also gone. Clearly, they had been gnawed on several times.
As for the furniture, it was all over the place, broken into countless pieces …. The antique shelves had also been destroyed, and were scattered all over the floor. The carpet and floorboards were also damaged, revealing innumerable bite marks …. You could say that the only thing on the first floor that seemed to be intact was Kim Do-myung's favorite sofa.
Wang Baole felt a headache coming on. He couldn't help but look over at Kim Do-myung. Kim Do-myung seemed to be in a daze as he stared in disbelief. For the first time, a look of confusion appeared in his eyes. However, when he vaguely noticed that his favorite sofa was still intact, he took a deep breath and forced a smile onto his face.
"Thank goodness …"
However, before he could finish his sentence, the leather of the sofa suddenly caved in. It was as if something had bitten it from the inside. With a loud tearing sound, a hole appeared in the leather of the sofa, and the donkey's head poked out. It ignored Wang Baole completely, and when it saw Jin Duoming, it immediately brayed happily.
"Son! Son! "
At the same time, the donkey's cultivation level had also broken through from the first level of the True Breath realm to the second level of the True Breath realm. Its fur was even more lustrous, and its aura was different.
Kim Do-myung was stunned again. His body trembled, and his breathing became more rapid. His eyes widened. Wang Baole looked at Kim Do-myung., and took a deep breath...
"Brother, don't be rash........ just. you said...
. "" Catch it! " Without waiting for Wang Baole to finish speaking, Kim Do-myung had already jumped up and roared. Kim Do-myung's guards and maidservants immediately rushed toward the donkey.
The donkey was clearly frightened, and with a sway of its body, it burrowed into the sofa. Cracking sounds could be heard, and the sound was unprecedentedly rapid. Jin Duoming's expression changed drastically, and he rushed forward. The sofa fell apart with a bang, and the donkey had already rushed out of the room before the sofa could collapse.
Its speed was already shocking, and now that it had broken through, it was even faster. It seemed to have misunderstood and thought that they were trying to snatch its food. After it rushed out, it fled at high speed, eating whatever it saw.
It took a few bites of the scattered furniture, half a lamp, and even the sofa. Not only that, after reaching the second level of the True Breath realm, it seemed to have some special talent. With a sway, it avoided Kim Do-myung and the others and went straight to the second floor.
Seeing that the donkey had gone to the second floor, Kim Do-myung's expression changed drastically. He panicked and rushed out with a roar. Soon, under Wang Baole's helpless depression, he saw this group of people and chased after the donkey to the second floor.
Not long after, there was a loud rumbling sound and the sound of things falling and breaking from the second floor. Occasionally, there were the cries of the donkey.
"Son! Son! "
Seeing this, Wang Baole slapped his forehead in grief and indignation. He knew that there was an eighty to ninety percent chance that the deal this time was a failure … and the reality was indeed so. Although the donkey was very fast, it was still lacking in the face of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, so it was caught in the end.
Therefore, a few minutes later, at the main door of Kim Do-myung's villa … or more accurately, outside the main door that had been gnawed at a few times, Wang Baole and the donkey were chased out by a group of guards who were eyeing them with hostility.
The guards all had dark expressions on their faces. They stared at the donkey with an unprecedented level of vigilance. Wang Baole grew worried when he saw that. He stared at Jin Duoming, who had a dark expression on his face behind the guards at the damaged entrance of the villa, and shouted loudly.
"Brother Jin, although this donkey is naughty and mischievous, it is obviously a treasure beast. Why don't you reconsider? Didn't you say that you wanted it?" Wang Baole was a little unwilling to give up.
Hearing Wang Baole's words, Kim Do-myung's face twitched. He felt that he must have been crazy or possessed by a ghost to have taken a fancy to the donkey. Although the donkey's teeth were not bad and its appetite was shocking, its ability to cause trouble was equally shocking.
Those sofas, antique shelves, elixirs, and numinous treasures … the total value was comparable to two seventh-grade Dharmic Armaments. After all, there were only a few sofas in the entire Federation, and their value was too great. He had brought them over from Earth … and after the donkey swallowed all these things, it had only broken through from the first level to the second level of the True Breath realm.
One had to know that this was still in the explosive stage, so it could be imagined that the donkey's potential was extremely poor. In Kim Do-myung's opinion, even a normal pig from Earth would be able to reach the third or fourth level of the True Breath realm after eating all these resources.
At this thought, Kim Do-myung's face darkened, and he snorted.
"I'm going back on my word. I don't want it anymore!"
"Didn't you just say that you, Kim Do-myung, never go back on your word? How about this, I don't want those resources anymore. Just give me a seventh-grade Dharmic Armament. "Wang Baole was unwilling to give up and wanted to fight for it again.
Seeing that Wang Baole was not giving up, Kim Do-myung suddenly felt a headache coming on. If it were someone else, he could still be unreasonable, but he knew Wang Baole's bad temper very well. At this moment, he let out a long sigh and spoke earnestly.
"Brother Baole, we don't have a grudge … I really don't want it anymore. I was wrong, okay? If I buy this donkey, it will eat me up …"
Wang Baole could understand very well. At this moment, he sighed and tried to say something.
"Why don't you keep this donkey with you first? You can give me a seventh-grade Dharmic Armament in the future."
"Treasure Master, don't joke around. Old man, please leave quickly. Even if you give it to me, I don't want it … I'll give you some elixirs, okay?" Kim Do-myung quickly said. In the end, he gritted his teeth and threw out a storage bag. There were no weapons in it, but there were still some cultivation resources.
Holding the storage bag, he watched as Kim Do-myung quickly disappeared. The guards were also guarding the place as if they were facing a great enemy. Wang Baole let out a long sigh and turned to look at the donkey beside him. The donkey's ears were drooping, and it looked up at Wang Baole pitifully as it cried out softly.
"Son!"
"Son my ass!" Wang Baole slapped the donkey, but the donkey didn't seem to feel any pain. Instead, its eyes lit up, as if it thought Wang Baole was talking to it. Its ears perked up, and it happily jumped up and down a few times before crying out again.
"Son! Son! "
Wang Baole was speechless. He slapped his forehead and, filled with helplessness and depression, gave the donkey another kick. Sighing, he walked back to the institute.
The donkey was even more cheerful now. It followed Wang Baole around, running here and there, occasionally nibbling on the flowers and grasses that it saw on the road …. Before long, Wang Baole, heart pounding, hurriedly pulled out a cruiser, grabbed the donkey, and threw it inside. Then, he sped back to the institute.
The moment he returned, what awaited the donkey was a violent beating ….
But after being obedient for a few days, the donkey was once again cheerful. In the end, Wang Baole, whose face was ashen, stared at the donkey as it shook its head and wagged its tail, continuing to gnaw on the door frame.
