Emily was very obedient and honest the whole time.
Perhaps it was because she saw the miserable state of her fellow beastmen kin locked in cages, she was so frightened that she couldn't utter a word.
Previously she had arrogantly wanted to kill Lin Feng, but now that she was captured, helpless and with no choice but to lower her head.
"I really didn't expect that the Silver Wolf Tribe slave you saved would still be alive." The slave trader looked at Yuna in surprise, "But you must have spent a lot of money right? She was already on her last legs back then."
Yuna didn't have a shred of goodwill on her face, and kept glaring at the slave trader the whole time.
If she could, she really wanted to decapitate him with her greatsword.
"Yes, I spent quite a bit of money."
"Esteemed customer, why don't you name a price? I'd like to buy her back." The slave trader rubbed his hands eagerly, looking extremely cunning.
Yuna's face twitched. She was afraid.
If she was really sold back, it would be better to just kill her now.
"This wench's virginity should still be intact right? If so, the price could be set even higher."
"She's not for sale."
"The price is negotiable, how about one gold coin? That should be a very good price!"
Shooing off a beggar?
Yuna needed to earn eight gold coins to buy her own freedom. One gold coin could buy jackshit.
"No thanks, I made a promise with her that I won't sell her off to anyone."
The slave trader sighed, looking very regretful.
But then he shifted his gaze onto Emily again.
"How about selling this one? To be honest she's quite the looker, if sold to a noble as a toy, it could net a small fortune."
Emily became flustered, her uneasy gaze dancing between Yuna and Lin Feng.
"How much?"
"She's quite the beauty, but her tribe isn't the most popular. But selling her to a noble, forty silver coins shouldn't be an issue."
Seeing her panicked state, Lin Feng deliberately teased: "Whoa, that sure ain't cheap."
Emily couldn't sit still anymore and abruptly stood up from her chair, yelling loudly: "We had an agreement that you would become my master. You can't sell me to anyone!"
It wasn't difficult to see that after taking a stroll around the slave traders, she became fearful of becoming a slave and what would befall her.
Lin Feng slapped his forehead, putting on an embarrassed look as he said to the slave trader: "I almost forgot, I did make a promise with her, so she's not for sale."
Having received a definitive answer, Emily finally breathed a sigh of relief.
...
After finishing Emily's matters, Lin Feng wanted to ask about the main issue: "I'm very interested in Silver Wolf Tribe slaves. Have you caught any more recently?"
Yuna's ears immediately perked up as she eavesdropped attentively on their conversation.
"Esteemed customer, you sure know your stuff. But the Silver Wolf Tribe is just too rare. The market often has high demand but zero supply." The slave trader shook his head helplessly, pointing to Yuna as he continued: "If this wench wasn't on the brink of death back then, she wouldn't have gone unsold for me to pick up."
"What about the other traders?"
The slave trader flashed a sly smile, hemmed and hawed for a while, unwilling to speak: "Well...for many reasons I don't really want to say. But if the esteemed customer is willing to pay a small fee..."
There it is, it's about money after all.
Lin Feng stuffed five silver coins to him, but the trader still shook his head unsatisfied.
It was obvious he saw Lin Feng was interested, so tried to take advantage.
"Ten silver coins, that should loosen your tongue right?"
"It will!" The slave trader's eyes lit up at the sight of money, his eyes almost spewing out golden light.
Lin Feng very grudgingly put another ten coins in his hand.
"The trader in the south of the city, he caught a Silver Wolf Tribeswoman. You can hurry over there and try your luck!"
He struck it rich so quickly, didn't expect that at all.
Yuna tugged at Lin Feng's clothes, looking extremely impatient.
"Master, let's hurry over!"
"No rush." Lin Feng tugged Yuna's cheek again. The texture of the beastgirl's soft and fluffy face felt really nice...
Ahem!
"Is the Silver Wolf Tribeswoman he caught male or female, and about how old is she?"
"If I remember correctly it should be a girl, around six or seven years old I think. He was still clamoring about selling her to a noble to make a fortune. He's really struck it lucky this time!"
Yuna shook Lin Feng's arm again, growing more anxious by the second: "Master! It's a girl! And the age matches!"
"I know I know..."
The slave trader saw this scene and couldn't help but quip: "Esteemed customer, you're spoiling your slave too much. Beastmen especially like taking advantage when given an inch. If you don't give her a beating, she'll become conceited."
Yuna froze for a moment, then quickly released her hand and obediently retreated back.
What is he saying? A man's hands are meant for achieving great things, not for beating women.
"It's fine, I just like her being clingy like this, it's pretty nice."
Upon hearing this, Yuna's back suddenly straightened. She smugly pulled on Lin Feng's arm, making a face at the slave trader.
...
It took Lin Feng quite some time to find the slave trader in the south of the city.
But the result was disappointing.
Looking at the Silver Wolf Tribe slave girl in the cage, although her age seemed right, she wasn't Yu Li.
"Don't you have any others?"
"Just this one. Esteemed customer, do you want her? A noble has already placed an order, but if you want her, adding a bit more money, ninety silver coins..."
Lin Feng turned back to look at Yuna.
In the past, King You of Zhou lit beacons to amuse his concubines to gain Consort Bao's smile.
Today, Lin Feng buys slaves only to free them to curry Yuna's favor.
"Want to save her? She's your kin."
Yuna's gaze dodged around. It took her quite a while before she slowly shook her head.
"Don't stand on ceremony, just tell me if you want to save her."
Yuna looked at her tribeswoman in the cage, and thought back to her past self.
Although she felt awful inside, she still wanted to politely decline: "I can't expect my master to save every single one I see right? That would be too willful..."
"So are we saving her or not? If not I'm leaving."
Yuna clenched her fists, struggling for a good while.
Just a single sentence would decide this child's future.
And all she needed to do was shamelessly ask Lin Feng to say that one sentence...
"Save her."
Lin Feng faintly smiled.
He very readily took out a gold coin and handed it to the slave trader.
"Thank you master!"
The slave trader's eyes lit up at the sight of money, his eyes wide open in shock.
"If there's any other news about Silver Wolf Tribe slaves, please let me know. I'm staying at..."
Lin Feng took out a map, pointing to a location on it.
"Esteemed customer, don't worry, you're my lifeline! As long as there's any news, I'll personally come notify you!"
"That's good then. Just news will do, five silver coins per piece of news." Lin Feng held up a finger, with a serious look as he continued: "As long as the info is accurate. If you're trying to cheat me, then we'll cease doing business."
"You got it!"
The slave trader was elated with joy.
Five silver coins per news, which young master running around splurging is this...
Emily followed behind Lin Feng, mentally taking note of everything she saw.
She really couldn't believe there was still this kind of human in the world.
She felt fortunate to have listened to Yuna and followed what seemed to be a relatively benevolent master.
"Master, what should we do with this child?" Although Yuna didn't find her sister, saving her tribeswoman still made her very happy.
"Keep her at home first. Later find an opportunity for you to send her back to your tribe." Lin Feng shrugged.
"Really?"
"Yeah, one beastgirl with Silver Wolf Tribe ears is enough for me."
Yuna was overjoyed. She took the initiative to offer her face for Lin Feng to pull.
Emily also squeezed over, copying Yuna as she tugged at Lin Feng's clothes. But her expression was still haughty.
What a strange contrast...
"Master, in the future if you see White Feather Rabbit Tribe slaves, could you also...I'll work hard."
Lin Feng suddenly felt that he was starting to agree with what the slave trader said.
Some beastmen really do take advantage when given an inch.
"Let's see based on your future performance."
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
