Douluo Continent: I, an evil soul master, work nine-to-five in the Tang Sect.

Chapter 41 The Sigh of Death!

"See? I told you, you definitely won't regret coming to our Tang Clan. I can't guarantee anything else, but if it's just grilled fish, it'll absolutely stuff you until you throw up!"

Watching Tai'an beside him frantically showing off one grilled fish after another, Luo Chen smiled and said.

However, this was tough on Huo Yuhao. He hadn't had a moment to rest since he finished grilling one, and he was already grilling the next one.

On average, it takes three minutes to grill five fish. However, only half an hour has passed, and Huo Yuhao's grilled fish for today have been almost all sold out, with more than a dozen of them ending up in the mouths of Luo Chen and his companions.

However, at this moment, there was still a long queue in front of Huo Yuhao's stall, like a long dragon, and the number of people in the queue was still increasing.

In just a short while, Huo Yuhao's reputation for grilled fish spread like wildfire, causing quite a stir in the outer courtyard. Even some noble children who were used to fine cuisine were impressed by Huo Yuhao's grilled fish.

Huo Yuhao had prepared several days' worth of fish, but in just one hour, all of the hundreds of grilled fish were snapped up, indicating that demand far exceeded supply.

However, just as Huo Yuhao was about to leave a grilled fish for each of Wang Dong and Tai An, who had just joined the Tang Sect, as agreed, a figure caught his attention—or rather, the attention of everyone present.

Even Luo Chen, the cultivation fanatic who was not interested in women, couldn't help but take a look. In front of Huo Yuhao's stall stood a woman who was about the same age as Bei Bei, with a tall figure, graceful lines, and a stunningly beautiful face that could topple kingdoms. She was quite a sight to behold!

"Holy crap, how come I didn't know there was such a goddess in our foreign language department? Is she a fourth or fifth-year senior?"

Seeing such a beautiful woman suddenly appear before him, Tai'an's eyes widened involuntarily. He then looked at Luo Chen beside him with a lovesick expression, frantically casting glances as if trying to get his help.

However, Tang Ya spoke calmly, instantly extinguishing his newly ignited fighting spirit!

"That girl is Jiang Nannan from our foreign language department, who is known as the most beautiful woman. Everyone says she is beautiful and kind-hearted. However, we don't know if she has a problem with her orientation. Countless male students have pursued her, but without exception, she has rejected them all."

"If you think you can do it, then go for it. But if you get rejected, don't say you're from my Tang Clan..."

As Tang Ya spoke, a hint of displeasure appeared on her face, making it clear to anyone what she was feeling.

Seeing the Tang Clan leader's appearance, Tai'an couldn't help but feel embarrassed. In fact, he was just talking. It was only the first day of school, and he was already pursuing a senior. He was just tired of living such a leisurely life!

Upon seeing the stunningly beautiful young woman before him, even Huo Yuhao, who was currently focused solely on cultivation, was momentarily stunned. However, he quickly recovered and spoke to her:

"Excuse me, senior, we're sorry, but all the grilled fish we have today is sold out. We've had to trouble you to wait in line for so long."

Upon hearing this, the group of students queuing in front of Huo Yuhao's stall to buy grilled fish all looked somewhat disappointed, but there was nothing they could do. The stall owner had already said so, so what could they do but wait until tomorrow to queue up earlier.

"Junior, I see you still have a few grilled fish left at your stall. How about you sell me one? By the way, how much are your grilled fish?"

Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, the stunningly beautiful girl in front of her couldn't help but frown slightly and speak.

She had been queuing for a long time, and just when it was almost her turn, the grilled fish were sold out. This made her quite unwilling, so she started grilling the fish that Huo Yuhao was grilling on his grill.

However, faced with these words, Huo Yuhao still maintained his apologetic expression and said:

"I'm sorry, senior, I was saving these grilled fish for you and the others. We've already sold out for today. How about this, next time you come, I'll give you an extra one. Also, the price of this grilled fish is five copper coins each."

Five copper coins for a grilled fish—this was the final price Huo Yuhao set after calculations. The cost of the ingredients for the grilled fish was negligible, but the seasonings and fire starter needed to be purchased by himself.

If these costs are removed, then the five copper coins Huo Yuhao earns from selling one grilled fish are actually only two copper coins. Selling one hundred grilled fish a day would earn him two hundred copper coins, which is equivalent to two gold coins.

Logically speaking, given Huo Yuhao's skill and taste in grilling fish, even if he sold it for one silver coin a piece, no one would say anything. After all, most of those who can enter Shrek Academy to study are young masters and ladies from families with some assets.

If it's just a grilled fish that costs one silver coin, it's perfectly affordable, and the quality is excellent.

However, when Huo Yuhao quoted the price of the grilled fish to the stunningly beautiful girl in front of him, she frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure on her face, and responded to Huo Yuhao:

"Five copper coins a piece, junior. Isn't your grilled fish a bit expensive? Considering the cost and your labor, I think three copper coins would be about right."

"Um?"

Upon hearing her words, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but show a hint of surprise in his eyes. This was the first time he had encountered someone bargaining with him, and the person bargaining was none other than this beautiful senior who looked extraordinary.

He originally thought that five copper coins was already a low price, since a meal at Shrek Academy would easily cost more than five copper coins. But this senior sister in front of him asked for three copper coins, which was already his cost price.

However, after thinking about how long the senior student had been waiting in line, Huo Yuhao's face showed a hint of helplessness, and he replied:

"Bargaining is out of the question, because I can only make two copper coins at most from this grilled fish. Selling it for five copper coins is my limit. But since you've been queuing for so long, I'll sell it to you for three copper coins next time you come, and I'll also give you another one for free."

"As for these grilled fish, they were all pre-ordered and cannot be sold. Please forgive us, senior."

Hearing Huo Yuhao's sincere words, even if Jiang Nannan was dissatisfied, she could only accept it.

However, just as Huo Yuhao finished speaking, a whooshing sound suddenly rang out, and then a golden streak of light shot toward him at an extremely fast speed!

However, with Huo Yuhao's current level 15 soul power cultivation, his perception and mental power of his Spirit Eye Martial Soul have been greatly improved. He naturally saw the golden light shooting towards him and realized that it was a gold soul coin!

Under Huo Yuhao's abnormal perception through mental detection, he easily dodged the impact of the gold soul coin by simply turning his body slightly. Moreover, he keenly realized that the other party's target was not him, but the grilled fish on the grill!

However, before Huo Yuhao could react, Luo Chen made his move. As soon as he released the Crane Control Dragon Capture technique, several grilled fish instantly appeared in his hand. Then, he coldly looked at the figure flying towards him at an extremely fast speed in mid-air.

The next moment, two yellow soul rings instantly appeared on Luo Chen's body, followed by a dark aura filled with an ominous presence...

"Second Soul Skill, Death's Sigh!"
