Chapter 126: Conflict

The man’s face fell instantly. He looked warily to the left and the right, then said in a low voice, “What do you want?”

Yunxiao chuckled. “Don’t be nervous. The carcass of a third-tier demon beast is indeed a treasure, but it’s nothing to me. How much for the Bloodstriped Tiger’s teeth and this fruit? I’ll take them together.”

The man looked hesitant. He had not dared to tell anyone that he had obtained the carcasses of two third-tier demon beasts. After all, he was too weak, and such a precious treasure would get him into trouble. He had planned to secretly sell them in an auction during the trade fair, but he did not expect he would spill the beans.

“Give me a price,” Yunxiao smiled. “You are too nervous. This is Thousand Treasures Trade Fair. No one dares to touch you.”

“You know nothing!” The big guy gave him a scornful look and said coldly. “Yes, no one dares to strike here, but do you know how many eyes and ears are hiding among the crowd? If they see that you are rich in wealth but weak in strength, hmph…you will most probably have to rest in peace forever in Tianshui!”

“Eyes and ears?” Yunxiao had also discovered many sharp gazes. Perhaps, they were the so-called eyes and ears.

The seller said in a low voice, “I can sell you the tiger’s teeth, but I don’t sell them separately. You need to take the whole tiger, five thousand medial-grade Primordial Stones, non-negotiable. I will give you the wild fruit as a gift!”

Yunxiao considered the offer, then said, “I need to examine the teeth for damage.”

Five thousand medial-grade Primordial Stones for a third-tier demon beast was neither expensive nor cheap. The most valuable things in a Bloodstriped Tiger were its teeth and skin, and then blood. The rest of them were just ordinary materials.

If the teeth and skin were damaged, its value would drop significantly.

“The teeth are in perfect condition, but there’s some damage on the skin as the result of the fight with the python.”

“Deal!”

Yunxiao took out a storage bag and handed it over.

The man quickly inspected the contents of the bag with his divine sense while beaming, then took out another storage bag and threw it to Yunxiao.

After glancing at its contents, Yunxiao nodded and picked up the fruit on the blanket as he took his leave. The man stared at the back of the four of them for a while before hastily packing his things and planning to move to another place.

“Young Master Yun, it seems there are many eyes following us.” Jia Rong whispered. “I guess they are attracted by the demon beast egg.”

Yunxiao chuckled. “Ignore them. Their lives are in their own hands.”

Some time later, Meng Bai suddenly grabbed Yunxiao’s arm as they were walking and cried out in alarm, “Look over there, Master! Aren’t they Chen Zhen and Han Bai? It seems they are in a conflict with someone!”

A crowd was gathering in the street ahead. Chen Zhen and Han Bai were surrounded by a large group of men in front of a stall, and they all looked very agitated, as if they were going to fight each other.

Yunxiao’s face grew dark as he strode over and shouted, “What is going on?!”

“Young Master Yun!” The sight of him made both Chen Zhen and Han Bai happy, and they cried out hurriedly as if they had found a straw to clutch at.

Chen Zhen pushed through the gathering crowd and rushed in front of Yunxiao as he said, “Young Master Yun, we found the Hundred Water, but these men suddenly appeared and said they wanted it! They are bullying us!”

Yunxiao understood at once. “Where is the Hundred Water?” It was the main material for the Golden Sixsun pill, and Ji Meng was waiting for it with his life on the line. Yunxiao had to get it no matter what, even if it were seen by the group of men first!

Han Bai pointed angrily at a man in the group and said, “He took it!”

With a cold grin, the middle-aged man said proudly, “Whoever gets it first gets it. Stop being annoying and get the hell out of here! If you point that finger of yours at me again, I’ll cut them all off today!”

Yunxiao glanced at them. Clearly, this group of men was under some power. The leading man was just a nine-stars Martial Master, but among the guards around him was a Martial Lord and two Great Martial Masters.

The owner of the stall walked out in fear and said to the middle-aged man in a trembling voice, “Si-sir… y-yo-you haven’t paid.”

The man’s eyes turned cold as he bellowed while fuming, “What do you mean? Do you think I will not pay? Now get the fu*k out of here!”

“This… this…” The owner looked worried. The Hundred Water was his most valuable item.

“How much?” Yunxiao asked lightly.

“Two hundred medial-grade Primordial Stones,” said the owner as he held out two fingers.

Yunxiao took out two hundred medial-grade Primordial Stones and handed them to him. “I’ll buy it.”

“Thank you! But the goods…” The owner bowed gratefully, but he looked anxious and embarrassed. After all, the thing was not in his hand.

“It’s alright. I’ll get it myself.” Yunxiao gave him a smile, then turned to look at the middle-aged man and said, “What did you say just now? You want to cut off my brother’s fingers?”

The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes and said with a hideous grin, “What? Not happy? Do you know our strength and background? If you are wise, kowtow a few times and get the hell out of here. Otherwise…”

Yunxiao cut him off impatiently, “Alright, I know what to do!”

As he said that, his right knee bent slightly, and then he kicked his right foot into the group, throwing himself forward like a bolt of lightning. When the crowd saw him again, he was already in front of the man, swinging out Springwater.

“He’s so fast!”

Everyone was taken aback as the middle-aged man sucked in a cold breath, moving back a few steps in a hurry as he pointed at the ground and cried out in horror, “Blood, blood! Where did the blood come from?”

“Ah? AHHH!”

But, he shrieked in the next instant, because he found that all the fingers on one of his palms were sliced off at their roots, leaving him with a fingerless palm.

“How dare you hurt Young Master! You are dead meat!”

One of his guards, a Great Martial Master, flew into a rage instantly. With his master hurt, he would have to face a serious consequence when he returned. So, he rushed over while fuming and pulled out a saber, thrusting it at Yunxiao’s head.

‘No matter who this boy is, he’s dead meat for hurting Young Master! If I can be the first to kill him, my punishment may be lighter!’

Suddenly he saw a flash of light and heard a faint whistle, and the next thing he saw was jets of blood that gushed out of his neck. Then, he felt a great impact on his chest, which threw him flying backward and falling into the crowd. Looking at the people running away from him in panic, he felt his consciousness gradually fade away.

“Ahh! Murder!”

The onlookers erupted into chaos, all shouting and fleeing from the scene while the owners of nearby stalls hurriedly packed their things and moved far away, not daring to come any closer.

“Anyone who wants to hurt my brothers must die!”

Yunxiao’s eyes burst with a monstrous killing intent like a God of Slaughter, and with the sword in hand, he emanated an aggressive aura like the strongest warrior that reigned supreme over the world!

Many years ago, he had slaughtered everything within eight thousand miles in the East Sea to save his brother, turning the water red with blood as countless experts of the sea clan fell under his hands. Days ago, when Qin Ruxue was abducted right in front of him, it had already deeply provoked him, filling his heart with the feeling of powerlessness and remorse, which finally exploded out now.

“Back off, all of you!”

He was a three-stars Martial Master, but Jia Rong and the others were just warriors, so they could not provide him any help. With loud cries, he threw himself at the guards coming at him. All of them were Martial Masters, but none could survive more than one strike from him; they were all killed with a cut in their necks.

The scene of slaughter frightened the rest of the Martial Masters. They felt strength leave their legs, and they lost the courage to fight.

“No one can save you now, boy!” The Martial Lord standing next to the middle-aged man finally struck, throwing a palm out with a dark face.

All the Martial Masters around were knocked flying away by the force of the palm, which condensed in mid-air into a huge green palm, enveloping the void around Yunxiao as it smashed down from above.

“What are you waiting for, Commander Hong? Do you want me dead?” Yunxiao bellowed. “If I die here today, you will be flayed and executed as well!”

At that moment, a figure hiding somewhere nearby leaped into the air and flew over as fast as a bolt of lightning, falling lightly before Yunxiao and throwing out a palm as well. Two great forces collided, and in the next instant, the green palm was blown away.

The man was Hong Bing, the commander of Yanwu’s City Guards, whom Yunxiao had met upon arriving in the city. Later, when he learned that Yunxiao and a few others were going to the trade fair alone, he secretly followed them for fear of danger, since there were too many complicated powers in the fair. But, he did not expect to really have to strike.

At the moment, he looked shocked, because he could not figure out how Yunxiao had discovered him.

The counterforce pushed the Martial Lord back several steps. Clearly, Hong Bing was stronger than him. In a fit of rage, he growled, “Who are you? Do you know who my Young Master is? How dare you poke your nose into other people’s business!”

“I’m Hong Bing, the commander of Yanwu’s City Guards!” he said in a cold voice. “I don’t care who you are. This is Yanwu, and it is my duty to maintain the order of this place!”

“Fine! That boy hurt my Young Master and killed my Young Master’s guards! What would you do about it?”

“Oh? Did he? I only saw you attacking him. If what you said is true, I’ll ask my men to investigate.”

The Martial Lord flew into a rage. “Look at all the dead bodies here! Do you think they killed themselves?”

With the help of his guards, the middle-aged man stopped his bleeding and pain. While flaring, he rushed over and bellowed, “Who do you think you are? You are just a mere commander! Even the emperor of Tianshui will have to show me some respect when he sees me! Now go and get your City Lord here! Do you know who I am? I’m Xingyang Jie, the heir of the Xingyang Family in the Firecrow Empire!”

“I thought he is some mighty figure, but it turns out only to be a nobody. Hong Bing, keep that Martial Lord in check and let me kill them all first.” As soon as he said that, Yunxiao bolted out with his sword again, killing another Martial Master.
