"No, there's something wrong with that Chen Lei."
Old Xue seemed to have noticed that there was something wrong with the ghost servant who was disguised as Chen Lei.
"Of course there's something wrong with him. I'll get someone to issue a city-wide arrest warrant for him."
The captain thought to himself, 'Of course there's something wrong with him. He even dared to come back and kill people right in front of them.' The captain's authority was only to issue a warrant for the north gate. In addition, he could get the other city guards to cooperate and issue a city-wide arrest warrant for Chen Lei. As for the other Immortal Cities, he could only inform them. It was their business whether they cooperated or not.
Uh … Old Xue knew that the captain of the north gate must be angry after losing a city guard member. After all, he was the one who suggested it. Not only did he not catch Chen Lei, he didn't get any money, and he even lost a brother.
"Kid, just you wait."
Old Xue had nowhere to vent his anger, so he could only vent it on Du Feng.
"Sure, I welcome you anytime."
Du Feng smiled. He had already put Old Xue on the death list. If it wasn't for his quick reaction, he would have been killed by Old Xue. If there was a chance, he would definitely kill this guy and help Chen Lei vent his anger. Just like that, under Old Xue's angry gaze, Du Feng strolled into the north gate.
This time, he didn't use the teleportation formation to rush back to the slums near the east gate. Instead, he decided to wander around the north of the city. He wanted to see what kind of shops there were and what the prices were like.
It was a scam, even scarier than the east district. After a round, Du Feng came to the conclusion that the north district was scarier than the east district where he lived. He searched the entire market, but there wasn't anyone as good as the old man in the bookstore.
Just the jade slip that saved the elves was very precious. Du Feng thought about it and decided to talk to the old man when he got back. But before that, he had to go to the legendary black market. The most famous place in the north district was the legendary black market where everything could be bought. The shops in the regular market were scammers. He wondered what would happen in the black market.
As a person with a temporary identity in Season City, Du Feng didn't need to stay in a hotel. When night fell, he followed Chen Lei's instructions and came to a dilapidated house in the slums. This place looked dilapidated, and there were broken walls everywhere. It didn't look like it would be inhabited at all.
But it didn't matter. When he took out a few wild wolves' monster cores and placed them on his palm, the scene in front of him immediately changed. In the midst of the ruins, a door that opened diagonally downwards suddenly appeared. He could vaguely see a flight of stairs leading underground.
Aiyo, this is getting interesting. As an Array Master, he could naturally tell that there was an Array Formation set up here. Only martial artists who wanted to come to the black market to trade could see the secret door that led underground. He didn't go to the City Lord's Mansion to exchange the Wild Wolf Monster Core for contribution points, but instead came to the ruins to display it, which meant that he wanted to participate in the trade.
It was all thanks to the method that Chen Lei had told him previously. Otherwise, he would have come here for nothing. Du Feng held the Yao Dan in his hand and slowly walked into the secret door. After taking a few steps up the stairs, the door behind him closed. As the secret door closed with a bang, the corridor suddenly became pitch-black. But it didn't matter. The walls on both sides of the corridor lit up with ghostly green torches that looked like will-o '-the-wisps.
Tsk, still trying to act mysterious with me. With regards to this kind of setup, Du Feng expressed his disdain. Season City was an immortal city, and the people who lived there were all normal human martial artists. What were they doing with these things that were neither human nor ghost? Could it be that they wanted to imitate the exiled region's demon market?
That's right, this black market in the north of the city was purposely set up to imitate that demon market. The reputation of the demon market was very big, and all the martial artists in the major immortal cities knew about it. When everyone had a need, they would think of ways to sneak over to buy something before sneaking back.
After all, there were a lot of prohibited items that normal shops couldn't sell. But it was too tiring to always go to the demon market, so there were people who set up this black market trading place in the north of Season City. If there were any illegal goods that they wanted to sell or buy, they could all come here.
The black market didn't collect booth fees, nor did it collect entry fees. But there was a rule, and that was whoever earned money in the black market had to hand over 20% of the earnings as a processing fee. If you came to the black market and only bought and didn't sell, then you didn't need to pay. If you sold and earned money but still didn't want to pay the processing fee, then you probably wouldn't be able to walk out alive.
What a guy! When Du Feng walked down the long stairs and arrived at the black market's trading hall, he then knew that this place was bustling with activity. Even though it was just a basement, the area wasn't small at all. A bunch of big lanterns flashing with green light hung above his head, and there was a projection on the roof that displayed the trading information.
"Seeking to buy Bear Demon Cores, urgent, price negotiable."
Du Feng glanced at this purchase information at first glance. The martial artists who came to the black market to buy things were really bold. They even dared to buy Bear Demon Cores so brazenly.
"Selling 30 Wild Wolf Demon Cores, highest bidder wins."
"Selling an Inborn Spiritual Weapon, Lady's Sword, price negotiable."
Apart from the purchase information, there would also be sales information displayed. But the display time wasn't long, and it would soon be covered by the next few messages. Whether or not one could be seen by others seemed to depend on luck. Of course, there was another way, and that was to pay them to display more. Every time it was displayed, it was one immortal stone, and the display time was about three seconds.
"Friend, do you want to sell Demon Cores? I'll take them here."
Du Feng had just started shopping when an old man wearing a felt hat came over and asked if he wanted to sell Demon Cores. Martial artists who came to the black market mostly wanted to sell Demon Cores to earn money. The City Lord Residence's Contribution Points weren't something everyone cared about.
"No hurry, I'll take a look first."
Du Feng wasn't in a hurry to sell Demon Cores, mainly because he wanted to understand the black market. Even if he sold them in the end, he wouldn't sell them to this old man, because the old man's purchase price would definitely be very low. He probably specialized in scamming new faces. If his price was reasonable, no one would spend money to advertise for 30 Wild Wolf Demon Cores.
"Stop shopping, no one's price is higher than mine."
The old man displayed his cultivation base at level 6 of the Sky Human stage. It seemed as though he was exerting pressure on Du Feng. If it was an ordinary newcomer who came to the black market for the first time, and his Cultivation was lower than others, he might really be intimidated. But who was Du Feng? How could he be afraid of an old man?
"I have too many goods, you won't be able to eat them all."
Originally, Du Feng didn't want to show off, but since the old man wanted to act cool, then he would give him a blow. As he spoke, he walked to the service counter and used immortal stones to put up an advertisement. 50 Wild Wolf Demon Cores for sale at a very affordable price. He paid three immortal stones and browsed three advertisements in a row.
