Huang Yaolong sighed and said, "Actually, she's my daughter. When I went to Cangnan, I gave birth to her with a female cultivator there. But that woman was also a disciple of a big sect, so the elders couldn't accept my identity as a demonic cultivator. What they couldn't accept the most was my real body …"
Ye Kong nodded. No wonder Huang Yaolong was hesitant when talking about Cangnan. It turned out that he had such a sad past. But Huang Yaolong's real body was indeed a bit inferior. If word got out that a disciple of a sect married a weasel … It would be too shameful, too shameful.
Huang Yaolong continued, "So, I took my daughter back to Flower Field Village in a fit of anger. Now that my daughter has also formed her Gold Core, the best way for her to cultivate from now on is dual cultivation with a man … To tell you the truth, I have another purpose for this Treasure Presentation, and that is to find an ideal husband for my daughter. Although my daughter is a bit demonic, she is half human, so she has always wanted to marry a human man. Unfortunately, Flower Field Village is a small place with very few humans passing by. I don't feel at ease letting her go to Cangnan. Besides, even if she meets a man she likes, he will definitely care that she has the blood of a weasel. "
If he cares, why don't we care? Ye Kong was stunned. After pausing for a while, he hurriedly said: "Actually, Great General Huang, I already have many wives and concubines. It's really not suitable for me to marry again. Moreover, this brother Jun Feng of mine has more than double the number of wives I have. If he were to marry your daughter, it would be very unfair to your daughter."
Although Cao Junfeng scolded Ye Kong for talking nonsense, he still hurriedly nodded. "That's right, that's right. It's unfair, too unfair!"
Cao Musse also opened her mouth and said, "Grand General Huang, as an elder of the two of them, I also feel that it is unfair. You can't see how fickle these two brats are. If your daughter chooses one of them, she will definitely suffer in the future, and it will be too late for regrets!"
Huang Yaolong wasn't a young boy. He could tell at a glance that the other party was unwilling. With his daughter's beauty, skills, and cultivation, it would be easy for her to marry a demonic cultivator, but it would be difficult for her to marry a human man.
Annoyed, he changed his expression and said coldly, "I didn't expect the human cultivators of the Black Dragon City would also look down on the women of the monster cultivators."
Ye Kong hurriedly smiled and said, "General Huang, what are you talking about? Ye can swear that Ye does have more than ten wives …"
Once this sentence came out, Huang Yaolong didn't faint, but Cao Muse fainted first. She didn't expect this brat to be such a playboy. It was really hateful. She had even married two of her disciples to him!
Ye Kong continued, "But don't worry, Great General Huang. I have quite a few good friends and young talents in the Black Dragon City. When the time comes, it shouldn't be too difficult for me to help you."
Hearing Ye Kong's words, Huang Yaolong's complexion immediately improved. He nodded and said, "That's good." However, he was still not in a good mood, so he said, "Then I'll ask the three of you to go and rest for a while. I'll get someone to invite you to the Treasure Presentation later."
Ye Kong and the others didn't dare to stay any longer. They hurriedly got up and left.
Led by the rabbit monster maid, the three of them rested in a small courtyard for a while. When it was getting dark, someone came to tell them that the Treasure Presentation had begun.
When they arrived at the big house from before, they saw that the round tables inside were already filled with people. It looked very lively. Ye Kong and the others sat among them, and they felt that they were not very used to it.
Fortunately, they were sitting at the main table, together with a few old monsters of the Transformation Stage. Although they looked normal, Ye Kong was even more worried in his heart.
After the introductions, he found out that other than Huang Yaolong, the Transformation Stage Yao cultivator with a yellow forehead and purple chin was called General Herb Mountain. He was a flower demon, and the enchanting woman beside him was called General Bai Ling. It was unknown what kind of demon she was, but the two of them were dao companions.
It was getting dark quickly. It was getting late. Huang Yaolong said, "Why isn't Old Xun here yet? The banquet is about to start."
Bai Ling giggled, "Old Huang, you know that Old Xun is very sensitive to treasures. He must have encountered something good and can't come in time."
Yao Shan snorted, "Old Huang, don't tell me you look down on us because of Old Xun's treasures?"
"Not at all." Huang Yaolong waved his hand and nodded, "Since Old Xun isn't coming, then we won't wait."
Then he stood up and shouted, "The Treasure Presentation begins now! Serve the dishes! "
Soon, the dishes were served. Braised chicken, braised chicken, steamed chicken, roasted chicken, stewed chicken, beggar's chicken … It was really a hundred chicken banquet. Everyone chatted happily at the banquet. Ye Kong and the others mainly listened and listened to Huang Yaolong and Yao Shan chatting nonstop.
After the banquet went on for a while, Huang Yaolong stood up and said, "The whole city is celebrating the Castellan's birthday. I would also like to present a gift to show my respect to Flower Field Village. That's why I've invited everyone here today to take out your treasures for me to choose from … Don't worry, this general's reputation and character are guaranteed. As long as there's a treasure that catches my eye, it doesn't matter if it's spirit stones, treasures, or the Water of Transformation, it's all fine. "
After Huang Yaolong finished speaking, the beasts below whispered to each other with joy on their faces. To them, the most important treasure was the Shapeshifting Water. If they could get their hands on the Shapeshifting Water, not only could they complete the transformation process earlier, but they could also greatly improve their cultivation. This was the reason why they came here today.
What made them even more excited was that Huang Yaolong paused and said, "What I want to tell everyone is that my offer is double the market price!"
Many of the beasts cheered excitedly. One by one, they patted their storage pouches and took out their best treasures, hoping that Huang Yaolong would take a liking to them.
One of the beasts stood up and said, "I have a Water Calming Pearl. It's the eye of a top-tier demonic beast. Put it in water, it can turn water into soil."
Many of the beasts gasped in admiration. The Water Calming Pearl was a good thing.
But Huang Yaolong shook his head.
Ye Kong held his cup and sneered inwardly. The Water Calming Pearl looked beautiful, but it had no practical use. The Castellan of Black Dragon City was a black dragon and didn't care about water. Of course, it wouldn't be chosen by Huang Yaolong.
The beast with the Water Calming Pearl was gloomy. He put the pearl away and sat down.
Just then, another beast stood up and said, "I have a treasure here. Please take a look."
He patted his storage pouch and took out a small umbrella that emitted seven-colored light. It was obviously not an ordinary item.
"It's an ancient treasure!" Many of the beasts widened their eyes. Even the three old monsters at the main table narrowed their eyes.
Ye Kong looked at the beast again and found that it was the deer-horned demonic cultivator who had spoken to him before. He didn't expect this guy to have an ancient treasure even though he was only at the Core Formation stage.
Noticing the change in Ye Kong's eyes, Huang Yaolong smiled and said, "Friend Ye, what do you think of this item?"
Ye Kong laughed and said, "It's a good treasure. If we get it, we'll be happy for a while. It's just that … what kind of cultivation does the City Lord have? What kind of insight does he have? I'm sure he has a lot of treasures that can be used in battle. Even if we give him one, he won't look twice. "
Huang Yaolong and Yao Shan nodded. The Castellan was a divine beast at the Mahayana stage. Even if he fought, he wouldn't need these low-level ancient treasures.
The female demon Bai Ling raised her wine cup towards Ye Kong and smiled: "Little Friend Ye's eyes are as sharp as a torch. Then, may I ask you, what kind of treasure would City Master look at?"
Ye Kong also raised his wine cup and said, "Whatever medicinal pills, battle treasures, or flashy but impractical treasures, he doesn't want any of them. The Castellan has lived for so long, he must have nothing to do every day. I think it's better to find some entertainment or ornamental treasures. Maybe we can find another way. "
Hearing this, Huang Yaolong nodded his head and praised, "Little friend's words are exactly what I am thinking. What you said is indeed reasonable."
The Beast Demons below only knew how to cultivate on normal days. They were too busy to even raise their cultivation, so how would they have the mood to play and enjoy the scenery? So when they heard Ye Kong's words, they all sighed and shook their heads, keeping their treasures back.
At this time, no one took out any more treasures in the hall. It was a bit awkward.
Herb Mountain stood up and loudly said: "Since you don't have any treasures to offer, then I will take them out and throw a brick to attract jade."
Yao Shan didn't rush to take out his treasures. Instead, he ordered people to clear an empty space on the big table. Then, he patted his storage pouch and said, "Come out!"
Everyone's eyes flashed. They only saw a huge and dazzling thing appear. Once that thing appeared, it immediately shone with a seven-colored brilliance. It was bright and dazzling.
Ye Kong looked at it attentively and found that it was a ten feet tall precious coral. It was very beautiful, alternating between yellow and green. Its surface was flowing with brilliance. It was so dazzling that people couldn't bear to part with it.
Yao Shan said loudly, "This thing fits Friend Ye's requirements. Let me tell you, it doesn't have any. It can't increase cultivation, nor can it prolong life. Its only function is to look good! " After Yao Shan finished, he smiled proudly at Ye Kong and said, "Friend Ye, do you think the Castellan will take a second look at it?"
Ye Kong shook his head. Everyone was puzzled. Then, they heard Ye Kong say, "This thing won't make the Castellan look at it … This thing will make the Castellan look at it many times! I think the Castellan will definitely put it in an eye-catching place. He will look at it every day and every time he sees it, he will remember the person who gave it to him! "
Huang Yaolong was immediately overjoyed. He patted the table and said, "Brother Yao Shan, this is indeed a good treasure! I want it. Name a price! "
But Yao Shan shook his head, "Old Huang, do you think I'm lacking in Spirit Stones or Water of Transformation? Actually, I only took it out to help you. I don't want to sell it. "
In fact, Yao Shan originally wanted to sell it to Huang Yaolong. After all, as he said, this precious coral only looked good and had no practical value. But after hearing Ye Kong's words, he was tempted. Since the Castellan valued it so much, why should he give such a great benefit to Huang Yaolong? It would be better to give the treasure to the Castellan himself. Presumably, the Castellan would reward him a lot. Maybe he could even curry favor with the Castellan and achieve meteoric success in the future.
Therefore, at this critical moment, Yao Shan changed his mind and decided not to sell it.
