Swallowing the Stars: The Rise of Emperor Wei

The slave market in Qiulong City covers an area of ​​over 300 square kilometers, like a city within a city, teeming with people!

Qiulong Star is the central hub of hundreds of star systems in the surrounding area, and this slave market is also the largest in the vicinity.

There were dedicated shopping malls, open-air markets, virtual projection displays, and even real people posing for photos. Countless people gathered around, creating a lively and bustling scene!

Luo Feng followed Gao Sheng in and was immediately shocked when he saw the price tags.

Ninth-level Apprentice? Isn't that just a high-level War God on Earth? 20 Black Dragon Coins each?

One hundred million Black Dragon Coins to buy 500 million?

I could buy over a billion of these curved blade discs?

"Those below the planetary level cannot become citizens, so their prices are very low. Most of these slaves are bought to work in the mining industry."

As Gao Sheng walked, he said, "Below the planetary level, unless the woman is exceptionally beautiful or has something special, she's generally only worth a few or a dozen Black Dragon Coins... Look over there, wow, a beauty!"

Luo Feng looked into the distance and saw a group of incomparably beautiful women of all races. Some had fair skin, some had fluffy tails, some had cat ears, and some had wings like angels... Any one of them would be stunningly beautiful on Earth.

"5000 Black Dragon Coins each, all top-notch beauties, all original, and discounts for bulk orders!" A stunningly beautiful woman, no less beautiful than the one on stage, called out sweetly from the side.

Gao Sheng stared wide-eyed.

Sasha, who is standing next to me, is already a great beauty, but if Sasha gets 100 points, then everyone on stage would get 120 points!

Hmm? Gao Sheng was almost drooling when he suddenly noticed one of the female slaves, and his face instantly darkened.

The female slave had long, wavy silver hair, a slender figure, pointed ears, a fluffy tail, jade-like skin, beautiful, expressive eyes, and an alluring face. She posed in various ways for the onlookers, and every smile and frown was mesmerizing.

Jade Elf race? That's outrageous.

The Jade Elves are said to be composed entirely of women, extremely rare, and each one is an absolute beauty!

Gao Sheng looked at the shop and made a note of its name. He walked up to the woman selling her wares, about to speak.

"Boss, I'll take this one." Suddenly another voice rang out.

Gao Sheng turned around and saw a guy who was 2.5 meters tall and as thin as a bamboo pole, with two bodyguards by his side, pointing at the female slave.

The beautiful woman selling her wares smiled broadly: "Alright, 5000 Black Dragon Coins per person. Anything else you'd like to buy? Discounts available for bulk orders!"

"Wait!" Gao Sheng shouted, "I'll buy this one."

The beautiful woman was secretly pleased upon hearing this, but said aloud, "Gentlemen, there's only one item left, this..."

Gao Zhugan, who had initially glared angrily at Gao Sheng, changed his expression upon seeing An Sen and Luo Feng's Silver Guards. Still unwilling to admit defeat, he said to the beautiful woman, "In business, there's always a first-come, first-served principle, boss, don't you think?"

"No, in business, the highest bidder wins," Gao Sheng said calmly. "Ten thousand Black Dragon Coins."

Gao Zhugan gritted his teeth: "Eleven thousand!"

Hmm? That's interesting. The chubby boy waved his hand: "Twenty thousand!"

Gao Zhugan's face turned pale, and after stammering for a while, he said, "Twenty-one thousand!"

"Oh ho! Are they going after me?" Gao Sheng roared. "One million!"

The crowd erupted in uproar. One million Black Dragon Coins? That could buy a Star-level bodyguard! A beauty who's not even an apprentice? What kind of utter traitor is this?

The jade fairy beauty had long since stopped posing and stared blankly at Gao Sheng. 100 million Black Dragon Coins? Am I that valuable?

As soon as the word "one million" was uttered, Gao Zhugan left without a word, taking his two bodyguards with him and leaving without looking back.

Luo Feng looked on with slight surprise, but smiled inwardly. So it turned out that Brother Gao Sheng had this kind of taste. But this beautiful woman was definitely lucky to be with him.

A beautiful woman approached with a smile, "Sir, you have excellent taste. The Jade Elf race is truly exquisite."

Gao Sheng pulled out a large wad of thousand-yuan bills. "Stop talking nonsense!"

Gao Sheng only had a little over a million yuan in cash in his spatial ring, and he took out most of it at once.

The businesswoman immediately replied, "Yes, proceed with the change of ownership permissions right away."

"No, cancel all commands."

Both the beautiful businesswoman and the jade fairy were taken aback.

The onlookers erupted in uproar once again!

"Are you sure?" the beautiful businesswoman asked.

"Sure."

"no problem."

The beautiful businesswoman took out an instrument and aimed it at the Jade Elf beauty. The Jade Elf beauty closed her eyes tightly and showed a pained expression.

Just a moment later, the instrument beeped.

"She's yours now. And this control chip..."

Gao Sheng took it, applied a little force, and "snap!" crushed it into pieces.

The jade-like beauty stood before Gao Sheng, her expression bewildered. No more orders? I'm free? But...

"What's your name?" Gao Sheng asked softly.

"Master, my name is Ina." The jade elf beauty spoke in standard universal language, her voice as melodious as a silver bell.

"No, I am not your master. You have no master anymore. Um, my name is Gao Sheng Wei Di. I need some maids. Would you be willing?"

"I do!" Ina's eyes lit up.

"Alright, you stay with me for now, don't get lost. Sasha, you take care of her."

Sasha held Ina's hand tenderly and said, "My name is Sasha."

After crossing another large square, I found it filled with planetary-level slaves.

Luo Feng looked at the price tags one by one. 5? 8? That eighth-level Planetary Star cultivator is 2? A ninth-level Planetary Star Spiritualist is 10?

Gao Sheng casually remarked, "What? Interested in these planetary-level beings? At most, planetary-level beings are just servants to get things done, or they're used as thugs on ordinary planets to scare off ordinary people. They're not very useful! In the universe, the star-level beings are the best level of bodyguards. However, planetary-level beings are numbered in the tens of thousands, while star-level beings are numbered in the hundreds of millions."

Gao Sheng led Luo Feng to a more spacious square, where a total of 18 martial artists and mentalists stood.

They are one martial artist and one mentalist of each of the following levels: Level 1, Level 2, Level 3... Level 9 of the Hengxing Star rank! Each one has a bid.

"Isn't that amazing?" Gao Sheng muttered. "It's making my legs tremble a little!"

"Truly powerful." Luo Feng held his breath.

"A first-tier martial artist at the Eternal Star level is really cheap, only 100 million. A fourth-tier martial artist at the Eternal Star level is 20 million? A fifth-tier martial artist at the Eternal Star level is 2000 million, a seventh-tier martial artist at the Eternal Star level is 8000 million, an eighth-tier martial artist is 50 billion, and a ninth-tier martial artist is 5 billion." Luo Feng looked at these prices. As for mental cultivators, they were priced at almost three times that of martial artists at the same level!

This is just an average price; the actual price can vary greatly depending on factors such as strength, appearance, and remaining lifespan.

"Sir, do you have plans for these star-level slaves?" A manager from the plaza ran over, clearly recognizing Luo Feng and Gao Sheng's bodyguards as a major client with the means to buy them!

"That's right, I do have that plan," Gao Sheng nodded.

Luo Feng's heart was also moved. With money in hand, he could buy some things, which would be convenient for both directing operations and protecting his family.

The manager was overjoyed. "Please come this way! We have a large number of virtual projections of slaves. Sir, you can choose whichever one you like! The prices are absolutely fair, and we offer discounts for bulk purchases!"

In the spacious reception room.

Rows of virtual projections showed the appearances, heights, strengths, races, and prices of numerous slaves!

Gao Sheng and Luo Feng both watched carefully.

"I want this ninth-level Star-level Spirit Master." Gao Sheng pointed to a projection, a Black Mongol, with a strong physique, and she was a woman who frequently became a Spirit Master.

"Three fifth-tier level spiritualists at the Eternal Star level! I'll take them." Luo Feng pointed to the virtual projection, "These are from the Black Mongol tribe."

"Why is this mentalist so expensive?" Gao Sheng asked, pointing to another Black Mongol projection. The previous one cost 155 billion, which was considered a normal price, but this one costs 240 billion.

"It's all explained here. This one is relatively young, has strong combat power, and his Force is at the ninth level of the Constant Star level," the person in charge explained.

"Oh, okay, I'll take it too." Gao Sheng nodded.

Slaves don't receive cultivation resources, so to reach the ninth level at such a young age clearly indicates exceptional talent.

"Okay, okay." The person in charge happily made a note of it.

Big business, a really big business!

"Three level-seven spiritualists of the Black Mongol Clan!" Luo Feng continued to instruct.

"And these two are seventh-level martial artists of the Eternal Star level." Gao Sheng pointed to several other projections, all of whom were from the Dark Spirit Clan.

"I'm planning to buy these few, Brother Luo Feng?" Gao Sheng looked at Luo Feng.

"Hmm. That's enough for me." Luo Feng turned to the person in charge and asked, "How much discount can I get for all of these together?"

"9.5% off! That's the biggest discount ever!" The manager's pointed nose gleamed.

"Alright, give me 10 Constant-level Tier 1 Spirit Masters, 5 Martial Artists, and 5 Spirit Masters. Also, give me 1000 Planetary-level Tier 9 Spirit Masters," Luo Feng said.

"Sir!" The person in charge glared at him as if his parents had died, "I can't deliver that many! You, you're going to kill me!"

"Send me 40 level 1 Eternal Stars, 20 Martial Artists, and 20 Spiritual Masters. Can you deliver that?" Gao Sheng asked.

"Should we calculate it for both of you?" the person in charge asked.

"Yes." Gao Sheng nodded. "One price: 26 million Qianwu coins for four of them on my side, and 3.3 million Qianwu coins for six of them on my brother's side, plus the freebies."

"Deal!" the person in charge said quickly. Qianwu coins? They could openly offer a 30% discount, and in reality, the black market exchange rate would be even higher. Of course, this was a deal they'd take.

"Gentlemen, how will you deliver the goods?" the person in charge asked.

"I'll take it with me on the spot," Gao Sheng said.

"Mine, send it to the planet's docking port," Luo Feng said.
