"You don't even know Black Crystal?" Da Gou Gou immediately showed an expression of disbelief, as if he had heard that a person who had received nine years of compulsory education didn't know that one plus one equals two.

"You don't need to worry about this anymore."

Da Gougou didn't dare to ask any more questions. He changed back into human form, took out a few turbid black crystals from his backpack, and handed them to Li Xuan carefully as if he were holding a treasure.

Li Xuan took it and looked at it, and found that this was a crystal of evil energy. The structure was very stable and the shape seemed to be naturally formed.

"This is black crystal, which can only be mined in places rich in evil energy." Da Gou Gou looked at the crystal in Li Xuan's hand with great heartache, as if he was reluctant to part with it.

"What's the use of this thing? Is it worth it for you to exchange humans for it?"

"It has many uses. Black crystal can be used to make magic props, refine potions, and through some methods, absorb evil energy into the body to directly enhance strength. In the world of monsters, this thing is omnipotent. There is a saying that goes - black crystal can make the devil work." Big Dog Gou explained.

"It sounds like a good thing." Li Xuan nodded. In the world of monsters where the strong prey on the weak, something that can indirectly or even directly improve strength can indeed be used as hard currency.

"Of course! Black crystal is everything here! The reason why the seven warmasters have been fighting for years is to seize the crystal mines in each other's territories." Big Dog Gou continued.

"I see. Whoever gets the black crystal will get the world. There's something to be said for this... What was your original plan? Tell me about it." Li Xuan asked.

"Now that the two wolf kings are fighting, they need manpower. I was thinking of selling these humans for a large sum of black crystals, and then joining the current wolf king. After I win the battle, I will definitely be valued and maybe even become a general, which is second only to one demon and above all others."

Da Gougou seemed very proud when talking about his plan, but after he finished speaking, he thought that he had fallen into Li Xuan's hands and these plans were just empty talk, and he couldn't help feeling disappointed.

"Good idea. Contact the buyers immediately and ask them to come here to trade. The price should be only half of the usual price. Just say they are in a hurry to sell it and ask them to come tonight." Li Xuan said.

"Ah? Half? No...you'll lose money if you do business this way. Humans are very cunning nowadays and they're not so easy to catch!" said Big Dog Gou anxiously.

"What are you afraid of? I don't plan to give the person to them." Li Xuan said with a smile.

"Are you planning to rob your fellow thieves?" Big Dog asked in surprise.

"That's right, just say you have more than a hundred humans and ask them to bring more black crystals. After the task is accomplished, you will also benefit from it." Li Xuan said with a smile.

"This... this... OK, let's do it!" Da Gou Gou originally wanted to say that those buyers were not easy to mess with, and each had their own power. But after thinking carefully, why should he be so loyal to Li Xuan? If he could attract them to fight each other, he would have a chance to fish in troubled waters, so he agreed immediately.

"Master...can you let everyone out?" When Kurokawa Ai saw the big dog leaving, she walked up and said carefully.

"Hmm..." After hearing what Kurokawa Ai said, Li Xuan suddenly felt a little troubled: he had not yet figured out how to deal with these human captives.

Unlike other monsters, he could not get satisfaction from killing, and he could not get any benefit from these humans. All the people in this village were captured here, and even if he wanted to kidnap them, he could not find anyone to ask for money.

Keeping them would consume food, but letting them go would be a pity.

"Master, all of us... will thank you and be loyal to you. Please don't sell us to other monsters." Seeing that Li Xuan was still hesitating, Kurokawa Ai hurriedly knelt down and begged.

"Thanks can't be eaten, so what use do I have for you?" Li Xuan asked back.

"Well...we...we..." As Kurokawa Ai spoke, her eyes gradually dimmed. She knew that to monsters, humans were just toys and food. Perhaps she could be favored by monsters with her natural beauty, but other villagers obviously did not have such luck.

"The master is really stubborn. He has such a large labor force and he doesn't even make good use of it." Yao at the side couldn't help but say.

"It's easy to say, but I don't have that much food to feed them." Li Xuan spread his hands.

"Isn't it enough to let them support themselves? Find a piece of land for them to grow vegetables!" Yao said, slapping his thigh.

"It's easy for you to say. The land here has been eroded by evil energy. The vegetables grown here may be taller than yours, and may even be able to talk." Li Xuan said as he looked at the moldy mushrooms in the box.

"You don't have to worry about this. I saw it when I passed by the city just now - the land in the city is protected by a thick foundation and has not been eroded by evil energy. We can grow vegetables as long as we dig it up!" Yao said proudly.

"You actually still pay attention to this? I'm really surprised."

"Of course. Mom Lilika didn't buy fresh vegetables for us. It's so greasy to eat dried vegetables every day! I always have to think about my own mouth." Yao said with a smile.

"That's a good idea, but why do you call Lilika mom too?"

"The black cat always calls like that, so I got used to it..." Yao said a little embarrassedly.

"Forget it, let's not worry about that for now. I accept your suggestion. After we finish this job, we will go to the city to grow vegetables!" Li Xuan made the decision.

"Great! There are fresh vegetables to eat!" Yao said excitedly, raising his arms.

Looking at Yao's excitement, Li Xuan thought that this guy was indeed from the Golden Country. His obsession with growing vegetables was probably ingrained into his DNA.

But before that, there is one more thing that needs to be confirmed.

"Can you grow vegetables?" Li Xuan stretched out his tentacles to open all the cages, called everyone together and asked.

Although the villagers had heard from Kurokawa Ai that Li Xuan was a kind monster who would grant them unimaginable delicacies, their long-standing fear of monsters still made them kneel on the ground and dare not look up.

"We know how to grow crops. The village has seeds left over from earlier years, and we make a living by fishing and growing vegetables. Unfortunately, there is too little land that has not been eroded, and the harvest is poor. It's just barely enough to survive," sighed an old lady.

"Just know how to grow crops. I'll find a place for you." Li Xuan looked at the skinny villagers in front of him and noticed that they were all more or less corroded by evil energy, and even had a tendency to become monsters, but this was not seen in Kurokawa Ai and her two sisters.

Could it be that Kurokawa Ai has some unique potential that can resist the erosion of evil energy?

Chapter 271 The gangster eats the gangster

"Xiao Ai, drink this." Li Xuan took out a bottle of joy wine that could replenish energy and handed it to Kurokawa Ai, and added a drop of corrupted blood in it.

Kurokawa Ai took the bottle, hesitated slightly, but still drank it obediently.

After swallowing the blood of corruption, Li Xuan did not hear any prompts, probably because Kurokawa Ai was not a magical girl, so there would be no progress in the process of falling into evil.

"How do you feel now?" Li Xuan asked.

"It's a little spicy, and my stomach feels hot and warm." Kurokawa Ai answered honestly.

Li Xuan stared at Kurokawa Ai's belly for a while and found that the evil energy of the corrupted blood seemed to have disappeared - this little girl really had the ability to resist the erosion of evil energy.

"You stay here for now and don't move. I will take you out after tonight." Li Xuan was afraid that these people would escape or be affected by unknown AOE in the battle at night, so he ordered Yao to set up a defensive barrier to trap them all in the warehouse.

Time soon turned to night, and what surprised Li Xuan was that the night in the Lost Land was even brighter than the day. A bright moon hung high in the sky, pouring down a cool light.

"Master, big dog Gou won't run away, right?" the black cat asked worriedly.

"No, just look at his greedy eyes and you will know that he is a typical gambler. He has a desire to climb up, and the more he loses, the more he wants to turn the tables. So I am sure that he will come back, and he will most likely bring a large number of monsters with him." Li Xuan said confidently.

"Why?" Yao asked curiously.

"Because only by attracting some powerful monsters here can we create a situation where both sides suffer losses. Then he will have the opportunity to share some benefits. If I guess correctly, he would have sold us out long ago." Li Xuan sneered.

"You bad boy! I shouldn't have let him go!" said the black cat angrily.

"This is perfect. The bigger the trouble he makes, the more famous we can make." Li Xuan said, and summoned two A-level warriors, Filia and Sharoye, from the illusory evil land, and asked them to ambush outside the factory just in case.

After a while, Yao told Li Xuan that she felt a large number of monsters approaching, about three to five hundred in total. Among them, there were more than a dozen with B-level evil energy, but only one with A-level evil energy.

"How is it? Can you handle it?" Li Xuan asked.

"It's a piece of cake. I can handle it by myself." Yao said confidently.

Li Xuan knew that Yao always liked to brag and never convinced anyone, so he didn't say anything to him. He just waited silently for the arrival of the suckers.

In the moonlight, a huge gray-haired werewolf over three meters tall was walking quickly towards the factory. Beside him was the white wolf that the black cat used as a mount during the day.

"Are your words reliable? Are there really monsters coming in from outside?" Gray Wolf confirmed again when approaching the factory.

"Absolutely reliable! They don't even know what black crystal is, that reaction doesn't seem fake!" White Wolf assured.

"No outsiders have come in here for many years, but if it's fake, I won't let you go." The gray wolf stared at the white wolf with murderous intent.

White Wolf was frightened by the murderous intent. He quickly calmed himself down and swore, "How dare I lie to you! You are a general under the Warmaster! I guarantee with my skin that they are really from outside, and there are only three of them. As long as we rush over and take them down, the supplies they brought from outside and the more than one hundred humans I captured will all belong to you!"

"Humph, that's better. After I'm done, I won't forget to give you a share of the spoils." The gray wolf said, releasing a hint of murderous intent intentionally or unintentionally, scaring the white wolf into a cold sweat.

Bai Lang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He knew that Li Xuan was powerful, so he promised a lot of money and invited the Wolf Demon General stationed in the city. But after seeing the general's strength up close, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If this guy kills Li Xuan directly, he will have nothing to do. At most, he can follow him as a little brother. This kind of life is not what he wants.

While White Wolf was hesitating, Gray Wolf had already rushed into the factory with his men. They were well-trained, and as soon as they entered, they occupied all the main traffic arteries, and there were also people responsible for opening the perception barrier to investigate the surrounding situation.

"No one? You'd better not be kidding me." Gray Wolf looked at the empty factory area and said to White Wolf in a cold tone.

"Impossible! They must be nearby! I...I will take you to the warehouse where the humans are imprisoned!" Gray Wolf was also very panicked. If Li Xuan just walked away at this time, he would be in big trouble.

"I'll trust you for the last time!" The gray wolf followed impatiently.

"Right here, right here! Let me show you these humans first." White Wolf thought that if Li Xuan left, at least he could give dozens of humans to the Grey Wolf Warrior and save his life. But when he was about to open the door, he was blocked by an invisible barrier.

"Hey, that's weird! Why can't I get into this place?" The white wolf stood up angrily, stretched out its sharp claws and scratched a few times, but did not cause any damage to the invisible barrier.

"Get out of here!" The gray wolf pushed the white wolf away, put his hand on the barrier and felt it for a moment, with a solemn look on his face.

"This is a defensive barrier. Although the quality is a bit crude, it is very strong. It is very similar to the ones set up by the Sealing Magical Girl." Gray Wolf said with a frown.

"You mean, the outsider is a magical girl? The magical girl outside is coming to attack us?" White Wolf said in horror.

"Don't panic! It's just an illusion. This barrier is made entirely of evil energy and must have been created by monsters. The outsiders must be lurking nearby and hiding because they saw that we are outnumbered." Gray Wolf sneered.

"What should we do? If they get scared, it will be hard for us to find them!" White Wolf said worriedly.

"What's there to be afraid of! Since they have set up the barrier, it means there is something in the barrier that needs to be protected. Watch me break the barrier and force them out!" said the gray wolf, stretching out his sharp claws and raising them into the air. A flash of lightning suddenly attached to his claws.

The gray wolf raised its sharp claws covered with lightning, and its muscles were tense. The evil energy it released alone made the white wolf feel weak in the knees. Before the claws chopped down, it had already accumulated infinite power. Is this the strength of an A-level monster?

However, the white wolf waited for a long time, but the gray wolf still did not swing its claws down. So the white wolf just stood there frozen with its claws raised high.

"How dare a mere trash like you touch the barrier we set up?" Yao stood up on the top of the warehouse, fiddling with the wood chips with his left hand hidden behind his back, holding the gray wolf in place like a puppet.

"This power... is a sealing magic?" The gray wolf knew something was wrong, and hurriedly drew a bolt of lightning to hit himself. There was an explosion, and the gray wolf's fur was instantly burnt, but he also broke free from the restraints of the silk thread.

However, at the moment the silk thread disappeared, Yao also unsheathed his two swords and appeared in front of the gray wolf like lightning.

"Final sound, Yaoziqie!"

Yao swung his two swords, and hundreds of scars immediately appeared on the gray wolf's body. The chest and abdomen were pierced by four intersecting slashes, and the flesh was directly scattered on the ground.

Chapter 272 Qualified Mount

Where have the monsters ever seen such a scene? They shouted and were about to run away when the black cat stood out from behind Yao.

"Word Spirits·Group Capture·Stand Still."

Following the black cat's whispers, the hundreds of monsters present felt as if their feet were nailed to the ground, unable to move at all.

"Yao, you are too impatient. Why not just cut off their hands and feet? How can you ask questions if you just kill them directly?" Li Xuan said helplessly.

"A-level monsters don't die so easily. In the past, we sealed their souls and sold them to the church. Look, it's still breathing." Yao said, pointing at the "corpse" on the ground.

Li Xuan looked down and saw that the gray wolf, with only a head and one eighth of its body left, was not dead yet, but was only hanging on with one breath.

"That's better." Li Xuan said as he pieced the gray wolf's limbs together and summoned a ball of healing joy to sprinkle on the gray wolf's remains. His flesh actually began to heal slowly.

"Actually, that guy is also very strong. Even though I caught him off guard, he was able to react immediately and draw lightning to break free from his restraints. But I am still more powerful. I attacked him when he was just struck by lightning, leaving him no room to react." Yao said proudly.

"Yao, you talk too much. I can't control myself for too long." Black Cat couldn't help but interrupt.

"One minute is enough." Li Xuan looked at the hundreds of monsters standing at attention below, and thought it would be troublesome to infuse blood to them one by one, so he simply rained down a forgiveness rain.

Blood-red rain poured down, and intelligent monsters were obviously not so easy to control, but Li Xuan also mixed it with the psychedelic wine of joy. Under the dual effects, most of the monsters were directly controlled by Li Xuan, and a few B-level monsters resisted for a while, but were also forcibly controlled by the excessive amount of corrupted blood.

Obviously, the resistance of monsters to the blood of corruption is far inferior to that of magical girls of the same level. In a place where monsters are everywhere, it is not easy for Li Xuan to gather his followers.

The monsters first saw their eldest brother being killed instantly in one move, and then being mind-controlled. They were already shocked beyond words. As soon as the black cat released the spirit of words, they knelt down in fear.

"You, come out." Li Xuan pointed at the white wolf hiding in the wolf pack.

The white wolf resisted a little, but ultimately could not disobey its master's order, so it walked towards Li Xuan on its own.

"These are your so-called buyers? Why didn't I see him bringing any black crystals?" Li Xuan asked, pointing at the gray wolf's corpse.

"This..." Bai Lang looked at Li Xuan in horror, not knowing how to answer.

"You betrayed me, didn't you?"

"Please forgive me, master. I was bewildered for a moment..." The white wolf cowered on the ground like a frightened puppy.

"Black Cat wants you to be his mount, so I won't kill you." Li Xuan said with a smile.

"Thank you very much, my master, for not killing me. I am willing to be her mount for the rest of my life." When the white wolf heard that he could save his life, he kowtowed in thanks.

"However, since you want to be a mount, you look like this..." Li Xuan continued.

"I'll turn into a wolf now!" The white wolf quickly bent down and changed from a werewolf into a giant wolf.

"Do you think this is okay?" White Wolf asked flatteringly.

"That's right, but I think it's not a good thing for a mount to have too many thoughts. So..." Li Xuan stroked the white wolf's head and launched a powerful mental interference on him.

By the time the white wolf realized the danger, it was too late. Li Xuan had wiped out his ability to think, causing his intelligence to degenerate to the level of a wild beast.

"Black Cat, now you can use it as a mount without any worries." Li Xuan said as he led it in front of the black cat.

"Now I don't have to walk by myself." Black Cat rode on it happily. She was petite and could even lie on the wolf's back, which made Li Xuan envious.

At this time, the gray wolf seemed to have almost recovered, but having just been killed once, he looked very weak and couldn't even stand up.

"Tell the truth, who are you?" Li Xuan walked forward and asked.

"I am...a general under the Wolf King, in charge of commanding this city." After seeing what happened to the White Wolf, the Gray Wolf didn't dare to hide anything and quickly revealed his identity.
