When Ye Tianze returned to the nine-story pagoda, he met Mo Cong and Mo Sheng at the entrance, who were waiting to enter.
The two of them looked worried and were asking other cultivators who were also preparing to enter the city if they had extra offerings and were willing to buy them at a high price.
However, those who entered the city were the last batch. Everyone was rushing to pay the offerings at the end of the month to avoid being whipped. Naturally, there were not many who had extra.
Even if there were a few who had, they could not afford it because the price was too high.
Seeing Ye Tianze, they naturally did not have much hope. With Ye Tianze's strength, even if he killed two spirit beasts, it was absolutely impossible for him to complete the offering mission.
Seeing that they were about to enter the city, Mo Cong did not buy any spirit beasts. Suddenly, an idea came to him and he asked Ye Tianze, "Brother Ye, did you kill any spirit beasts?"
"I was lucky. I killed a few," Ye Tianze said.
Hearing this, Mo Cong was immediately overjoyed. "How many?"
"Not much." Ye Tianze's face was also filled with worry.
Seeing that Ye Tianze was unwilling to say, Mo Cong did not ask and pulled him aside. "I have something to discuss with you. How about you sell your spirit beasts to us?"
"Sell?"
Ye Tianze frowned. "If I sell them to you, what about me?"
"You definitely won't be able to pay the tribute. If that's the case, you might as well sell it to us. Not only will we remember your favor, you can also make a small profit. Although you'll have to suffer a whipping, but … it's still better than nothing."
Mo Cong said.
"That's right, that's right."
Mo Sheng stood at the side and agreed. "Elder Lu is also very clear about your strength. Even if you don't kill any spirit beasts, maybe Elder Lu will be merciful and be willing to spare you once. Then you will have profited for nothing."
If he was really a greenhorn, he would really believe Mo Sheng's nonsense.
"But I don't have many either," Ye Tianze said. "How many more do you need?"
Hearing this, Mo Cong immediately gestured three fingers and said, "We still need three more. We're willing to buy them with thirty low-grade Primal Stones. What do you think? With your cultivation, I'm afraid you won't be able to earn 30 pieces of low grade primordial stones even after a year. "
"That's right, that's right. Even if you get whipped, you can use these primordial stones to buy pills to heal your wounds."
Mo Sheng added, "Here, primeval stones are the hard currency. Without primeval stones, it's hard to move an inch."
Ye Tianze sneered in his heart, but with a hesitant look on his face, he asked, "Then why don't you guys use primeval stones to buy medicinal pills to heal your wounds?"
The two of them were instantly speechless. They stammered, not knowing how to explain. They couldn't say that the medicinal pill was extremely rare, and it wasn't something that couldn't be bought with this little amount of Origin Stones, right?
"Forget it, forget it. Seeing as we are from the same sect, I will sell it to you fellows. I just so happen to have three spirit beasts here," Ye Tianze said.
Mo Cong, who was originally thinking of a way to fool them, was immediately overjoyed when he heard this.
Ye Tianze extended three fingers and said, "But, I want this much."
"Three hundred? Why don't you just rob us!" Mo Sheng said angrily.
Mo Cong gritted his teeth, took out a storage ring and said, "Here are three hundred low-grade Primordial Stones. Consider it cheap!"
"I don't want three hundred, I want three high-grade Primordial Stones!" Ye Tianze said.
"You!!!" The two of them stared at him, their eyes full of anger.
"I just heard that the other party offered five high-grade Primordial Stones. I'm offering three high-grade Primordial Stones, which is considered cheap."
Ye Tianze said.
Although the two of them were unwilling, they finally took out three high-grade Primordial Stones, which was all they had.
Ye Tianze kept the Primordial Stones and immediately gave them the three spirit beasts' corpses.
After Mo Cong and Mo Sheng kept the corpses, they looked at him gloatingly. Mo Cong said, "Although you took our high-grade Primordial Stones, you have to be blessed to enjoy them. Do you really think that Elder Lu will spare you just because your cultivation is low? Stupid, in the nine-storey pagoda, being weak is a sin. No one will sympathize with you, idiot! "
Ye Tianze didn't care. He was rich now. After killing the young man, he had obtained twenty Spirit Beasts. Including his own nine Spirit Beasts, he had a total of twenty-nine Spirit Beasts. If he sold three, he would still have twenty-six.
He was very clear about the value of high-grade Primordial Stones.
A low-grade Primordial Stone was equivalent to the Primordial Qi of a high-grade Primordial Qi Well. A high-grade Primordial Stone was equivalent to ten thousand low-grade Primordial Stones.
These two guys thought that he did not know the value of Primordial Stones. They wanted to buy his spirit beasts' corpses with three hundred low-grade Primordial Stones.
"With these Primordial Stones, my wind spiritual force should be able to reach thirty tides. Then I can cultivate the Wind Domain!"
Ye Tianze thought to himself.
After entering the city, they returned to their respective mansions.
Lu Aoshan did not appear. She only ordered Zhou Zhuo to collect the offerings from the servants.
The nine servants gathered together. First, the old men handed over their offerings. Only one of them was not able to satisfy their needs.
With one less spirit beast, Zhou Zhuo did not hesitate and immediately took out a token.
With the activation of the token, the servant who did not give enough offerings immediately rolled on the ground in pain. Evil Qi lingered around his body.
His spiritual force overflowed from all parts of his body and was absorbed by the token. His whole body quickly became thin.
This process lasted for two hours. The old man was in so much pain that his throat became hoarse. When it was over, they could clearly feel that his Qi and blood were empty. It was as if he was seriously ill. Everyone present felt their scalps go numb.
Ye Tianze finally understood that the so-called Law Whip was not using a whip at all. It was using the Yin Talisman on the body and the token to forcibly absorb Qi and blood.
"If you lose one spirit beast, you will be punished for two hours!"
Zhou Zhuo coldly glanced at them and then at Mo Cong and Mo Sheng. "It's your turn!"
Ye Tianze finally understood Mo Cong and Mo Sheng 'an's intentions. If he really didn't have a spirit beast, then even with his Spherical Heaven Combat Body, being sucked in for 20 hours would cause him to lose a lot of vitality.
Mo Cong and Mo Sheng wiped the cold sweat off their faces and quickly handed over their spirit beasts. This made Zhou Zhuo somewhat surprised.
"You two are not bad!"
Zhou Zhuo's gaze quickly fell on Ye Tianze. "It's your turn. Ten spirit beasts, not one less. If you lose one, you will be punished for two hours!"
Mo Cong and Mo Sheng looked at him gloatingly.
Mo Cong said, "He can't take them out. He only killed three spirit beasts and sold them to us!"
"Hmm!" Zhou Zhuo's expression changed. He said coldly, "Is that true?"
Ye Tianze nodded.
Zhou Zhuo suddenly became angry. "Don't you know that all the spirit beasts under the Elder's command are not allowed to be sold without the Elder's permission? It seems that you are tired of living! "
Zhou Zhuo was about to activate the token when Ye Tianze said, "Wait, can't I sell spirit beasts that are not consecrated?"
Zhou Zhuo was stunned for a moment and said, "If you can kill spirit beasts that are not consecrated, you can deal with them yourself!"
"Idiot, you don't have the fortune to enjoy those three high-grade Primal Stones." Mo Cong smiled.
When Zhou Zhuo heard that it was actually three high-grade Primal Stones, killing intent flashed in his eyes and he directly activated the token.
Obviously, he did not think that Ye Tianze could survive ten hours. After ten hours, Ye Tianze would have already become a dried corpse and the three high-grade Primal Stones would naturally be his.
Mo Cong's words were equivalent to sending Ye Tianze to the gates of hell. Of course, that was under the condition that Ye Tianze did not have any spirit beasts.
