Repugnant Gateway

Chapter 15

Chen Shaobai never felt that his life was pale. Although he was only ten years old, he knew that his ten years of life was much more wonderful than others of the same age.

However, after seeing how An Zhe fed the Spirit Jade to the cat, he suddenly felt that his ten years of brilliance added up wasn’t as amazing as the amazing scene where this impoverished youth fed the Spirit Jade to the cat.

“That’s... a piece of spiritual jade.”

Chen Shaobai said.

An Zhan nodded, “That’s right, a piece of spiritual jade, but it’s flawed. Thus, it’s no longer useful to cultivators.”

“However, this kind of spiritual jade is very soft due to its quality. It’s just like a soft candy, a cat would love to eat it.”

Chen Shaobai said, “But it is only a piece of spiritual jade and is worth at least ten thousand silvers. If there is an expert who can extract the spiritual energy from it, he can make a pill out of it.”

Once the pill was made, it would be worth at least thirty thousand silver.

In other words, you fed the cat something that was worth thirty thousand silver. ”

“He is my cat. He is called Xiaosheng, so no matter what he eats, he is nothing special, because he is my cat.”

Chen Shaobai realized that he did not really understand what those words meant. At this moment, he felt that he was somewhat foolish.

Then he was a little surprised, because it was clearly because he was foolish to argue, but why did he feel like he was stupid?

But why was that fool so self-satisfied when he was feeding the cat?

Just like how it was natural for a poor kid like him to feed a cat a spirit jade that was worth over 10,000 silver.

Temperament.

Chen Shaobai suddenly understood. His father had spent ten years nurturing his noble aura. So An Zhe was born with it, and he was much more powerful than he was.

Even if he was in rags, even if he was in poverty.

Just as Chen Shaobai was surprised by this, the spectators downstairs were also stunned.

The matter of a shabby dressed teenager feeding the Spirit Jade to a cat would probably spread throughout the entire Southern Mountain Street, and would even spread throughout the entire illusory world.

However, there shouldn’t be many people who understood the state of ‘An Zhe’. After finding out about this matter, most people would curse him for being a wastrel.

Those with stronger words would curse him as a pure fool.

On the other hand, the white-bearded old man’s expression was rather calm, although he had never seen such a strange thing in his life as the host of the Gathering Shang Manor.

“Uh … as the saying goes, ‘disaster and fortune will depend on fate.’ This melon is indeed a little unexpected.”

After clearing his throat, the white moustached old man continued: “Just now, my friend who snapped the melons had already left the stage, but the Gathering Merchant House will make some compensation and send me a Muscle Cleansing Pill later.”

The Muscle Cleansing Pill was a medicinal pill exclusive to the Juggernaut clan. It had no meaning to cultivation, but it was very effective in making women younger once again. It looked more tender and fair, and had a very good effect.

Therefore, the people in the courtyard knew how to do business, and they knew how to conduct themselves. After the man who threw out two hundred thousand silvers came home, it would be very difficult for him to explain himself to his wife.

Therefore, this Muscle Cleansing Pill might have a miraculous effect on calming a woman down.

Even though the Spirit Cleansing Pill was only worth five thousand silver.

The white moustached old man said, “As I said before, this melon is just an appetizer.”

What was to be presented to everyone next was definitely not of ordinary quality.

This item had been brought back from the depths of the Cang Man Mountain by thirty-six good men. In order to obtain it, they had paid with their lives sixteen times.

“Therefore, everyone has a good idea of how valuable this item is.”

With a wave of his hand, a woman wearing a snow-white dress slowly walked onto the platform.

The woman with the melon was wearing a short skirt and had long legs and thin waist.

Now this person looked pure and beautiful, with a long skirt that made her walk like a willow swaying, completely different from the woman before her.

However, this kind of girl would most likely be able to arouse some sort of desire from the rich and powerful people down below.

The girl in the white dress was also holding a plate, but there was only a pearl glowing with white light on the plate.

Looking from afar, the beauty of the bead would cause others to stare unblinkingly.

The white moustached old man said, “This bead is a magical beast’s spiritual pill, I don’t know what kind of magical beast it is.”

Those who hunted down that magical beast said that those things weren’t common. At the time, they were injured, but they were still incomparably valiant.

Of the thirty-six people, only sixteen died in battle did they manage to obtain this crystal core.

Someone shouted from below, “Everyone knows that the quality of good stuff is naturally formed.”

There were five types of green, white, red, gold and purple.

Spirit stones were the same, as was the core of a magical beast.

The way you talk, this crystal core is just a white rank crystal core, a low-rank magical beast.

Furthermore, a person cannot use the core of a low-level magical beast. It can only be used to increase the strength of their mount or pet. ”

The white bearded elder said, “What this guest said is correct. From the looks of it, this is indeed only the core of a low level magical beast.”

“However, do you feel that this thing contains an extraordinary power of water?”

The man who had spoken before asked, “Can you give it to people?”

The white moustached old man pondered for a moment before replying, “No.”

The audience booed.

At this moment, a servant in blue clothes and soapy boots walked out from a private room on the second floor. She looked very pretty and looked like a girl.

Most of the noble young masters in large families were interested in this sort of thing, so bookkeepers usually had two identities, and most of them were young men who looked very handsome.

“My family’s young master said that his mount, the Cloudwater Wolf, needs this crystal core to increase its strength. So, how much is this crystal core worth?”

The old man answered, “One hundred and fifty thousand.”

The audience booed again, “Humans can’t use it, so why don’t you use it on that Jade Gourd? Only an idiot would spend one hundred and fifty thousand taels to buy this thing.”

“That’s right!”

“If it’s three to fifty thousand silver taels, then it’s fine. But if it’s one hundred and fifty thousand silver taels, then it’s fine. Do you think our money came from the wind?”

The errand boy returned to the private room, obviously asking for instructions.

He didn’t come out after a while and was probably dissatisfied with the price of one hundred and fifty thousand silver taels.

The white moustached old man said, “The items from the Gathering Shang Manor will never change the price.”

Because if you have overpaid, we will not make any additional payments.

If you buy something that’s not worth it, we won’t refund it.

“Therefore, this item is worth one hundred and fifty thousand silver taels. If anyone wants it, just make a bid. If no one wants it, I’ll let them bring it back.”

An Zeng’s eyes lit up when he saw it from the second floor. He stood up and looked at the crystal core while muttering to himself, “I must have this thing.”

Chen Shaobai was somewhat surprised. “What do you want this thing for?”

“Feed the cat.”

He then jumped down from the second floor.

His action gave everyone present a fright.

What kind of place was the Gathering Shang Manor? No one had ever dared to behave atrociously.

Even those people who came from big families and influential powers had to behave properly in the Overwatch Council.

The dispute could have been the first direct jump from the second floor in the history of the House.

Five or six cultivators immediately rushed over from the darkness and stopped An Zhe in his tracks.

Although they were only at the lowest level of cultivation, it was already terrifying enough for the current battles to take place.

After all, he couldn’t even cultivate his current fleshly body.

“What are you doing!”

One of the guards pointed at An Zeng and shouted angrily.

“Let me see.”

An Xuan pointed at the crystal core. “What, the seller is not allowed to go closer to take a look?”

The guard said angrily, “If you want to take a closer look and speak in advance, get permission to come closer.”

If you come here rashly, you’re likely to be beaten to death.

So either you go back and sit tight now, or you leave the market. ”

An Zeng turned his head to look at the white moustached old man, “Everyone says that the big bully from the Merchant House is not allowed to do business like this.”

“Furthermore, in the entire courtyard, I am the only one who can recognize what that thing is, and no one else can.”

The white moustached old man was slightly startled. He waved his hand to indicate the guard to leave.

An Xuan’s clothes were too eye-catching, and the smell was pungent enough.

He had overturned dozens of people’s blood in the small courtyard, and he had overturned dozens of people’s blood outside Auntie Ye’s tavern. Now they were all still on his clothes. Although they were completely dried up, the smell still lingered in the air.

The atmosphere when An Zhe spoke was even more amazing.

The white moustached old man said: “This little friend, if you can really tell me what this thing is, I won’t mind if you disturb the news of our Merchant House.”

An Zeng took a step back, hugging the cat, he said, “Your bead is emitting white light.”

Thus, at first glance, they were all low-tier magical beast cores of the white rank.

This kind of thing could only be used by low level magical beasts.

Intermediate or high rank magical beasts would rather eat peanuts than peanuts. At the very least, it would have a slight aroma.

“To humans, this thing is even more worthless.”

“I’ve heard that the Muscle Cleansing Pill is able to make a woman’s skin pale and tender, and it’s worth five thousand silver taels.

If he could regain his youth, these five thousand taels of silver would truly be inexpensive.

And now this thing?

“In my opinion, they are not worth a penny to cultivators.”

An Xuan pointed at the tray in the girl’s hands. “From afar, there’s white light and white gas. Naturally, it’s the core of a low-ranked magical beast.”

However, if you look closely, you will notice that the bead has a very fine color mixed with hair-thin stripes.

“It’s just that the white mist has blurred the bead, and the white light has dazzled it, so if you don’t take a good look at those flaws, you won’t be able to see them.”

When he said these words, he was calm and composed. “There should be a black dot in the middle of the bead. It’s very small, and you might not be able to see it even if you looked carefully.”

But you can still find it after looking at it for a long time. ”

The people below all changed from disdain to surprise. No one knew where this young man came from.

They listened with rapt attention, waiting for an answer.

“This is not the core of a low-rank magical beast. This is a Water Python.”

An Zhan continued, “This thing is commonly found in water pythons that are over thirty years old. Although the water pythons are fierce, they are definitely not magical beasts.”

The largest among them was over twenty meters tall, and was as thick as a water bucket.

The water python liked to survive in the swamps and would only occasionally land, so the moisture in its body was very high.

After spending too much time in that dirty place, the boa constrictor’s body would become diseased.

This tumor was nothing more than the water python’s disease.

What you see is steam.

The white light you see is only an illusion created by the scales poison in the water python’s body.

“Not only can this thing not be eaten, if it’s been exposed for a longer time, I’m afraid that even its pair of delicate hands would be destroyed.”

After he said this, the face of the girl holding the white bead immediately changed. She subconsciously wanted to throw the tray away, but she was afraid that the white moustached old man would hold it back.

An Xuan said, “This thing is of no value to cultivators. It doesn’t even have the medicinal value.”

He shrugged and walked back.

The white bearded old man walked quickly to the girl in white clothes, carefully examining her for a long time. He discovered that there were indeed some details of An Zhe’s words. He hesitated for a moment, then waved his hand, “Throw them away, and deduct one year’s salary from the examiner.”

“Don’t.”

An Zhan suddenly stopped. “It’s a pity to throw it away. This item is not worth a single cent to cultivators, but it can still be priced at a few dozen taels of silver. It can be placed at a high place in the house to exorcise insects.”

The white-bearded old man stared at An Zhe, his gaze so murderous that it could kill.

An Ying’s words caused him to lose at least 150,000 silver.

If there weren’t any conflicts, this item would have been bought sooner or later.

An Zhan’s face was full of pity. “But your families are rich. Only my family is full of mice and ants. Why don’t you give them to me?”

The white moustached old man harrumphed coldly, turned his head and returned to the platform.

An Zhan grabbed a handful of crushed silver from his chest. “Why don’t you sell it to me?”
