"Damn it!"
Ximen Wandai suddenly roared as he stood up, his face contorted in fury as he struck out with his palm.
A flash of golden light flashed.
A few tender cries of pain could be heard.
The six Lightning Cats that had been sprinting towards Yun Yang were sent flying into the air, their blood splattering like rain.
"Stop!"
Yun Yang bellowed in fury as he dashed out.
No matter how fast he was, his cultivation base was still too far away from Ximen Wandai's. He only managed to grab one of the kittens before mystical Qi enveloped him.
"Wah!"
Yun Yang trembled as he spat out a mouthful of blood, his face pale as a sheet.
His cultivation base had yet to recover; he could not withstand a single blow from such a force.
However, his eyes were still fixed on the opposite side, "Young Master Ximen, are you a sore loser?"
Ximen Wandai was trembling as he glared at Yun Yang.
He wanted to deny this outcome, but heaven and earth were the witnesses of the wager. There was no way he could deny it.
"Admit defeat!" Ximen Wandai's face was twisted like a ferocious ghost, "These things … are all yours!"
Everyone present was still in a daze.
They were all dumbstruck.
They could not fathom how such a bizarre outcome had come about.
Ximen Wandai's heart trembled as he looked at the items he had handed over, despair creeping into his eyes.
Two seventh-grade mystical beast cores, five hundred mystical stones, thirty mystical crystals, and a treasured saber!
Even the Ximen family would suffer for a while if he were to hand over these items.
This was a massive amount of resources.
Other than the treasured saber that he had begged his family head father to obtain, which was something that truly belonged to him, the rest belonged to the family!
If he were to hand over these items, his days in the family would be extremely difficult. He could not even maintain his current status, let alone improve further.
Yun Yang's face was pale as he smiled, "Young Master Ximen is indeed trustworthy. Thank you, thank you. Also, I'll leave the safety of my humble home in the Ximen family's hands in the future. "
Ximen Wandai almost spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes fixed on Yun Yang as he said, "Of course. Due to the terms of the wager, we must do our best."
Everyone looked at Yun Yang with a complicated gaze.
This guy won just like that?
But how did he win?
Ximen Wandai's Mystical Beast Core was still scattered on the ground, as if the people's doubts had been scattered all over.
The people of Ximen Clan quickly left, and the onlookers also gradually dispersed. The other young masters studied Yun Yang for a while with complicated gazes before leaving as well.
Yun Yang held a Lightning Cat in his arms. This kitten was saved by him just now, but it was also seriously injured. Now it looked dispirited, its eyes were half-closed, and it was moaning weakly.
Yun Yang channeled a gust of mystical Qi into the kitten's tiny body, barely keeping it alive.
The other three snow-white kittens gathered by Yun Yang's feet and lined up in a row. They tilted their heads to look at Yun Yang, their black and white eyes distinct.
Yun Yang smiled. He had finally gotten his hands on these treasures.
Now, he actually had a total of four!
Just thinking about it made him feel incredulous.
"Young Master, this …" The shopkeeper said with a long face.
"It's alright, I'll pay you for the dead ones as well." Yun Yang said, "But, Shopkeeper, I have a question for you."
The shopkeeper was overjoyed. Ximen Wandai had killed his kittens and left without compensation. The shopkeeper knew that he could not afford to offend him and was prepared to accept his bad luck. He did not expect Yun Yang to be willing to compensate him, which was wonderful. He said gratefully, "Young Master, please ask away."
Yun Yang pondered for a moment before saying, "These four kittens … Where did you find them?"
He pointed at the four cats whose fur was clearly crystal white.
The shopkeeper suddenly felt a little awkward and said, "This … half a month ago, in the wee hours of the morning, a man suddenly fainted in front of my door. I saved him, and in his arms were these four kittens … I saw that they were Lightning Cat cubs, so I decided to put them up for sale here … cough cough …"
Yun Yang's eyes lit up, "Where is the person?"
The shopkeeper sighed and said, "Ever since I saved him, he has been in a coma. Until now, he has not woken up. Every day, he can only force some soup and water into his mouth to maintain his life. I've sought medical help for him, but … I … I really can't afford the huge medical fees … I'm not going to make it … "
Yun Yang said, "Bring me to him."
If Yun Yang's guess was correct, the person who could bring these four mystical beast cubs with him must have come from the depths of the mystical beast forest. Who knew how many dangers he had gone through? He might even have killed two adult mystical beasts before he could bring these cubs back …
Which one of these people was not an earth-shattering existence?
He had actually fainted in front of a mystical beast shop, and had even been saved by the shopkeeper, selling his mystical beast cubs as Lightning Cats …
The shopkeeper brought Yun Yang inside.
Yun Yang carried the injured Lightning Cat in his arms, while the other four kittens lined up obediently behind him, not leaving his side for even an inch. The Thousand Illusion Monkey squatted obediently on Yun Yang's shoulder.
At this moment, Yun Yang looked like a juggler.
Ji Ling was already by Yun Yang's side, looking at him with a smile that said, "Young lad, you have to give me an explanation when we get home."
Others might not have known, but Ji Ling was very clear about it.
Yun Yang had indeed tricked the Ximen Family this time.
However, there was one thing that Ji Ling could not understand. With Yun Yang's current status, why would he want to offend the Ximen Family? They were people from two different worlds.
How could they afford to offend Yun Yang?
…
In the room at the back of the mystical beast shop, the smell of medicine assailed one's nostrils. An emaciated man was lying on it, breathing weakly. His face was as pale as paper, a deathly gray.
"He doesn't have long to live, but … I really can't save him. I might as well give him a quick death, but I can't bring myself to do it …" The plump shopkeeper looked melancholy. "I've been worried to death these days."
Yun Yang approached and examined the man, frowning. He then tried his best to channel some air of vitality over and said, "You can't save him here. Let me take him away."
The shopkeeper was overjoyed.
He had been worried to death about this hot potato, and now that Yun Yang was willing to take it, he was overjoyed. "Thank you, young master, thank you."
Yun Yang nodded. "When he's better, I'll tell him that it was you who saved him."
"There's no need for that." The shopkeeper only wanted to send this hot potato away as soon as possible. How could he be greedy for repayment? "Just say that young master is kind and generous. This lowly one didn't do anything, I dare not claim credit."
Yun Yang looked at him deeply and said, "That's good too."
The shopkeeper did not know what kind of opportunity he had missed. Not to mention the four ninth level mystical beast cubs, just the favor of a pinnacle expert was enough for him to enjoy forever.
However, Yun Yang did not plan to let it go completely.
Although this person was timid and weak, he was able to lend a helping hand when he was in danger. He saw someone on the brink of death but he still tried his best to hold on.
After paying, Yun Yang purposely paid an extra thousand silver taels and hired a stretcher to carry the man to the Residence of Yun.
Ji Ling followed with a smile.
The journey was silent.
…
"You've made a fortune today. How do you want to thank me?" Seeing that Yun Yang had settled down, Ji Ling finally asked for credit with her hands behind her back.
"Thank you?" Yun Yang pursed his lips. "Why should I thank you? You saw me being bullied today and you didn't come out to help. It's fine if you're a coward, but you want me to thank you? "
Ji Ling retorted angrily, "If it wasn't for me, would you have won?"
Yun Yang rolled his eyes, feeling that women were really unreasonable creatures. "Do you think I can't win without you?"
Ji Ling stomped her foot. "You idiot. Those people were my acquaintances. If I had appeared, you wouldn't have been able to gamble. That's the first reason. "
"The second?"
"The second, if it wasn't for my Thousand Illusion Monkey, why would they be so polite to you?" Ji Ling snorted.
Yun Yang thought about it and realized that it made sense. In the beginning, those fellows' gazes were constantly scanning the Thousand Illusion Monkey's body, and they had a look of uncertainty and shock on their faces. So that's why?
"They were polite to me because I'm handsome!" Yun Yang would not admit it. "But what do you want from me?"
Ji Ling said, "Give me one of your four kittens as a token of gratitude."
"No way!" Yun Yang refused without hesitation. "Don't even think about it!"
This is a high-level mystical beast's infant that can only be chanced upon. How can you take one away for free? Do I know you that well?
Ji Ling fumed at Yun Yang's rejection. "You, you, you … you are so unreasonable! You were supposed to accompany me to buy a mystical beast, but you didn't even buy me a single strand of the beast's fur. Instead, it was you who took advantage of me. Now, I want a mere third level mystical beast cub from you, and you're actually unwilling!"
Ji Ling glared at him. "Why are you so petty?"
Yun Yang smiled wryly. Petty? I really can't afford to be generous about this. If you were my wife, I could give you one to protect yourself, but you're not …
Of course, he dared not say this aloud.
"It's not that I don't want to give it to you, but this third level Lightning Cat is a little too …" Yun Yang rolled his eyes and said, "Actually, I've been searching for it for you today. I've already chosen a target that's much better than this one. There's a fifth level pinnacle Silvermoon Celestial Wolf opposite the shop. I think that one is better. If you choose that one and take this Lightning Cat, won't it become food for the Silvermoon Celestial Wolf? What's the point of that? "
Yun Yang was eloquent, trying his best to convince Ji Ling.
"Silvermoon Celestial Wolf?" Ji Ling's attention was indeed attracted.
"That's right, a Silver Moon Celestial Wolf. Its fur is silver and shiny. Moreover, it looks obedient and cute, harmless to humans and animals. It can be kept as a pet, but it can protect its master at critical moments. Most importantly … a Silver Moon Celestial Wolf cub at the peak of the fifth level can evolve if it is raised well … But once it mutates, it's hard to say how far it can go in the future. It's not impossible for it to advance continuously to the eighth or ninth level. The key is how to train it and what resources to accumulate. "
"Besides, I've noticed that the baby Silvermoon Celestial Wolf is not even a month old yet. It's the best time to raise it."
As he spoke, he looked at Ji Ling's eyes that were growing brighter and brighter. He continued, "Of course, the resources needed to raise the Silvermoon Celestial Wolf will be astronomical. Most people don't have such resources, but it shouldn't be a problem for you, young lady, right?"
"No worries, no worries!" Ji Ling's eyes shone with excitement.
"Think about it, if the Silvermoon Celestial Wolf could evolve in your hands …" Yun Yang smiled and stopped halfway through his sentence.
Ji Ling's face was already beaming with joy.
One could only imagine how much face she would gain.
"Of course, if you really want this Lightning Cat, I can give you one. I have a total of five of them. It's not a big deal. "Yun Yang continued," In that case, the Silvermoon Celestial Wolf will be mine. "
"No way!" Ji Ling shouted angrily, "The Silvermoon Celestial Wolf is mine! I'll go buy it now! "
He turned around and ran out with a whoosh.
Yun Yang coughed, wiping the sweat from his brow as he watched the young lady disappear into the distance.
Go buy the Silvermoon Celestial Wolf, I'll train it for you when I come back. It's best to send this lady away as soon as possible. She didn't want him to find out that there were four ninth grade Profound Beast cubs right under her nose one day, yet she had remained indifferent to them …
"I guess I'll be in trouble then." Yun Yang pursed his lips and sighed, "Women are not to be trifled with, especially when they fly into a rage out of humiliation."
"But that's a matter for the future. The most important thing now is that these four little fellows are all mine!"
Yun Yang looked at the four fellows that were like kittens circling around him and could not help but smile.
