Lin Feng had no idea what had happened after he had left the restaurant. Even though he had a little bit of a sixth sense, he had never sensed that a cultivator of the Xuan Qiyer was following him.
Lin Feng hadn’t realized that Meng Qing was also following him the whole time. She had been following him since the moment when he left the Celestial Academy. She had never once left his side.
Lin Feng had put on his silver mask again, which gave him a majestic and cold appearance. He wasn’t the only one for whom that was the case; it was the same for Ba Dao, who was on his side, who was now wearing a bronze mask. Ba Dao looked ferocious and savage, especially when wearing the bronze mask.
“Ba Dao, except for auctions and fights to the death, are there other ces where cultivation ves of the Prisoner Arena end up?” asked Lin Feng while walking down the street.
“Yes.” muttered Ba Dao irresolutely. He then immediately nodded and said: “No need to talk about those who have already died in the arena. The ones who are docile and obedient enough are allowed to stay inside their cages to be sold. Those who aren’t sold at an auction will eventually be sent to the ck market. Many of them are sold on the ck market to people who need cultivation ves.”
Lin Feng looked at Ba Dao. It was clear that he was very stubborn and hardly the docile type.
“Where can we buy ves?” asked Lin Feng.
“I don’t know.” replied Ba Dao while shaking his head. He then added: “I have never been a witness to ves being bought before. I am just familiar with what happened to me.”
Lin Feng looked pensive. Then, Yi Xue, who was standing on his side, said: “There is a ve exchange where you can purchase ves, it’s widely known in this district. The wealthy and noble cultivators go to the ve exchange when they need ves. They can exchange purity stones or other items and receive ves.”
“Exchange?” Lin Feng was surprised. Surprisingly, there were ces called ve exchanges.
“Yi Xue, take me to the ve exchange.” said Lin Feng indifferently.
Yi Xue was surprised. She looked at Lin Feng and immediately nodded: “Alright.”
They immediately started walking. Soon, they had arrived at the ve exchange.
Lin Feng could already see the ve exchange from a distance, as the roads of the city were vast and wide. When he saw the ve exchange, his pupils shrank.
On both sides of the road, there was arge number of cages with ves inside. Their powerful masters were sitting there looking indifferent, waiting for people toe and buy their ves.
In that ce, ves were like animals. There was nothing humane about the ve exchange.
These ves were war prisoners, prisoners sentenced to death, or people who had offended an influential n. For example, those who had survived the massacre of the Yun Hai Sect had been turned into ves by Duan Tian Lang. These survivors were humiliated and maltreated to the extent that they wished that they could die. Many of them did.
Besides, the exchange marketce was very busy. People were unceasingly walking on the central road and buying ves. There were some very strong ves and they belonged to the noble families that had purchased them.
Lin Feng and the two others entered the ve exchange. They nced at all the cages on both sides. There were all sorts of ves, skinny ones as well as robust ones. There were also extremely attractive male and female ves. The nobles of the city who were fond of beauties could buy them in order to enjoy various pleasures.
“Master Feng, this area is for ves who are mainly at the Qiyer. ves of the Ling Qiyer are very expensive. Therge ns of the Imperial City have the monopoly over them. Don’t even give them a look.”
At that moment, Yi Xue exined these things to Lin Feng. She didn’t know why Lin Feng would want toe to that ce. However, if Lin Feng was going to buy ves, then it was no use to look at ves of the Qi Layer.
“Alright, let’s go and see the ves of the Ling Qi Layer.” replied Lin Feng. He started walking again, but he didn’t feelfortable, and he actually felt very uneasy seeing the scenes around him. Each and every ve was staring at their group. It was clear that these ves had been mistreated, and the master looked truly disgusting. This was the impurity of the world.
Shortly after, they arrived at the middle of the ve exchange. It didn’t look like the outside area at all. While the rest of the exchange was like a market, the area here was a small ancient castle.
“Master, this is the biggest ce to exchange ves. Eighty percent of them are ves of the Ling Qiyer.”
Yi Xue whispered these words into Lin Feng’s ears. Outside of the ancient castle, a silhouette was intensely staring at Lin Feng and the others. When a ve merchant heard Yi Xue call Lin Feng “Master Feng”, he quickly interrupted: “Master, did youe here to purchase ves? I can guarantee you that you will find very high quality ves here.”
“Show me.” said Lin Feng indifferently. His eyes under his silver mask were fearless.
“As you wish, master. Please follow me.” said the ve merchant sounding extremely polite while smiling. Lin Feng and the two others entered the building, which looked like a small fortress.
The interior was huge. Only half of the cages were locked while others had been left open. The interior was full of ves. They were all sitting on the floor looking sluggish. When they saw Lin Feng enter, a deadly Qi started invading the entire atmosphere.
“Master, you can choose one from here. The number of chains that they have on their body represents their strength. If they have one chain, it means that they have broken through to the first Ling Qiyer, or if they have five chains, it means that they have broken through to the fifth Ling Qiyer.” said the ve merchant to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng could look at the ves and determine their strength depending on the number of chains on their body without them having to move.
“There are two hundred ves of the Ling Qiyer here. The strongest ones are at the sixth Ling Qiyer. Their masters must be from the influential ns.” thought Lin Feng as he roughly nced at the ves.
There were about two hundred ves, and they had all broken through to the Ling Qiyer. Besides, they were all quite young. If they had all been outside very, they would have definitely been an influential power. They could have evenposed a small sect.
“Master, don’t worry. All of them havee from the Prisoner Arena. Amongst them, some were disciples of the Yun Hai Sect, which was destroyed by Duan Tian Lang. Many of them used to be Elite Disciples or even Core Disciples. There is absolutely no chance for you to be disappointed.”
The ve merchant was talking attentively. Lin Feng was greatly astonished. Disciples of the Yun Hai Sect? He had finally found some of them!
Last time, Lin Feng had heard that many people of Yun Hai Sect had ended up at the Prisoner Arena. He was hoping to find some of the former disciples of the Yun Hai Sect, which is why he hade to this ce.
“I n to go hunt some extremely strong ferocious beasts in the forest, and for that, I need ves to open the way. It seems like I ended up in the perfect ce.”
Lin Feng was smiling. All these ves looked at him with a cold re. He wanted them to open the way for a strong ferocious beast; this meant that they were all going to be sacrificed. What a bastard!
“Hehe. Master, you really came at the right moment.” said the ve merchant while smiling. In his heart, the ve merchant was cursing Lin Feng. He didn’t know which noble n he was from, but he was stupid enough to tell the ves his ns for them.
“What is the price for the ves in here?” asked Lin Feng.
“ves of the first Ling Qiyer are ten purity stones of medium quality, those of the second Ling Qiyer are thirty, those of the third Ling Qiyer are eighty, those of the fourth Ling Qiyer are two hundred, those of the fifth Ling Qiyer are five hundred, and those of the sixth Ling Qiyer are one thousand.”
Lin Feng slightly nodded. He looked at all the ves and said: “Those who were the former disciples of the Yun Hai Sect can serve my purpose. Who will being with me?”
When the ve merchant heard him, he cursed him again. What an idiot!
Even the ves were looking at Lin Feng indifferently. There was no solution. Who would be willing to go with him? It wasn’t written on any of their faces that they had once been disciples of the Yun Hai Sect. If they didn’t want to leave, they didn’t need to. If they didn’t say that they belonged to the Yun Hai Sect, who would even know?
Even Ba Dao and Yi Xue didn’t understand Lin Feng’s actions.
But Lin Feng looked as calm and indifferent as before. He took out a ring and ced it onto his finger.
Lin Feng had taken out a ring which looked ordinary, but when the ves saw it, they were stupefied.
That ring looked ordinary, but amongst these ves, many of them had already seen it. It had belonged to the Patriarch of the Yun Hai Sect, Nan Gong Ling. They had already seen it on his finger many times.
