Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant

Chapter 238: Chapter 43 Hundred Lives Defiling Soul Curse_1

At the entrance of the bookstore.

Wang Ba stood at the door, looking at Bao An with a deep gaze.

In front of him, Jia 15 had obviously lost a lot of weight compared to a few days ago, but its Class II upper grade aura was not reduced, but increased.

In particular, its sharp beak and cold claws were rather intimidating.

Even though it was a common Spirit Chicken, it gave a strong sense of danger.

Shopkeeper Lao, standing next to Bao An, was soaking in cold sweat.

He initially thought he was just colluding with the Chief to make some money, but he never expected the situation to become so tense all of a sudden.

“What an unexpected disaster! What a disaster!”

The Shopkeeper was even crying inside.

If a fight broke out, as two Foundation Establishment Competitors clashed, although it might not destroy the entire market, his bookstore would definitely be exposed to danger.

Not to mention his life was in peril too.

And even Bao An found himself stuck.

Originally he thought this honest cultivator in front of him would be just as easily manipulated as the others, he would become frightened and obediently hand over the Spirit Stone to avoid disaster. This is why greed arose in the first place.

But what he didn’t expect was for an early-stage Rogue Cultivator to suddenly summon a Class II upper grade Spirit Beast!

It was comparable to the late-stage Foundation Establishment!

Despite being inferior in the use of spells, Magic Tools and Talismans, compared to cultivators of the same class, Spirit Beasts are generally weaker.

But no matter how weak, a Class II upper grade still had a distinct advantage over a middle-stage cultivator like him.

“Damn it, isn’t this level of Spirit Beast not allowed to be casually sold? Which asshole sold it to him?”

Bao An couldn’t help but curse inwardly.

At most, the Spirit Beasts that one could buy on the market in Yan State would be Class II middle grade.

Firstly, because higher-grade Spirit Beasts, other than those found in some dangerous areas, have already been collected clean by cultivators, even if they wanted to sell there would be none to sell.

Secondly, for this quality of Spirit Beast, other than those that do not possess combat capabilities, without the intervention of a true Golden Core, they are considered high-tier.

Most factions will take them immediately, and it is implicitly agreed not to let

Rogue Cultivators have them.

In comparison to Magic Tools and Talismans that require a cultivator to use, the flexibility and initiative of a Spirit Beast is much higher.

No one would want to unfathomably risk having an uncontrollable existence around.

Of course, a few lucky ones might get one, but such cases are rare.

But what Bao An could never think of was that he had just come across such a person.

Luckily for him, even though he was greedy, he had been in charge of the Xuli Market for a long time and faced with such a situation, he quickly put on a kind smile on his awkward face:

“My friend, I know you won’t believe me if I say that this is a misunderstanding…”

Seeing Wang Ba’s deep gaze, Bao An had to pluck up his courage and to say, “But truly, it was indeed a misunderstanding!”

“…If it is a misunderstanding, can I leave now?”

Wang Ba asked in a low tone.

“Of course, you may! Please, feel free to do as you wish.

Although Bao An was unwilling, he also felt relieved.

When dealing with a Class II upper grade Spirit Beast, even though he felt somewhat hard pressed, he could cope with the help of the market’s formation.

However, if by any chance he mishandled it and the market was destroyed, that would be a serious crime.

If the cause were to be investigated, he would not be able to escape blame.

Moreover, since he had already realized that this person was not easy to manipulate, even if he was greedy, he could only quickly recover his

composure.

Normally, these Rogue Cultivators, looking at the might of the Xuli Sect, would be wise and back down.

This is the reason why he had managed to hold his position here for many years.

After all, who could not make mistakes in his position? But the sect behind him gave him enough opportunities to make mistakes.

Wang Ba didn’t say much anymore. He waved his sleeves, and Jia 15 was taken back into the Spirit Beast Bag. Then he disappeared from the entrance of the bookstore.

Shopkeeper Lao quickly walked to the door of the bookstore, looked carefully, and then quickly ran to Bao An’s side: “Master, he’s gone!

“Should we inform the Sect and find the whereabouts of this Rogue Cultivator,

so then later….”

“Slap!”

Shopkeeper Lao was slapped by Bao An, and he was sent spinning.

“If I hear a single word about what happened today in the public domain…”

Bao An looked gloomy.

It’s easy to bully the honest people, even play them for fools, but a Rogue Cultivator who effortlessly brings out Spirit Beasts, does he seem like someone that’s easy to bully?

Moreover, does he really think that he can dictate whatever he wants just because he’s in the Sect?

Shopkeeper Lao felt very wronged. Wasn’t it you who dragged him here in the first place!

He vented his anger on his junior, even though he was in the wrong.

But seeing Bao An’s murderous expression, Lao was scared out of his wits and hurriedly said:

“Yes! Yes!”

Jiantao Station, substation.

It was shaded by large old trees all around.

Wang Ba descended.

Looking at the formation of the substation still as intact as ever, the Spirit Chicken left in the caretaker was as usual.

He nodded his head.

Then he summoned Wu Monkey King, Jia 15, and other Spirit Beasts.

Back in the wooden house.

Only then did Wang Ba relax slightly.

“This outing was indeed a bit too flashy. I knew the Xuli Market was a pit, but I still brought a Class II top-grade flying tool with me. Considering my status as an early-stage Foundation Establishment Rogue Cultivator, it’s a bit too conspicuous, and too easy to attract unwanted attention. Next time, I should be more careful.”

“Also, I should have left willingly as soon as I sensed something was wrong, to avoid the situation evolving into what it was earlier.”

Recalling the near-conflict just now, he felt a thrill while reflecting on his actions.

“It seems I was pent-up for too long!”

Wang Ba noticed the subtle emotions within him and shook his head with a bitter smile..
