"Boss Jia, actually I came here for a purpose." Seeing that he wouldn't get what he wanted in a short while, Xiao Wuyou didn't want to be ungrateful even though he got the advantage, and decisively stated his demands.

As soon as these words were spoken, Su Xiaoyu, Ouyang Jing, and Zhang Huiyi all pricked up their ears, waiting for Xiao Wuyou's next sentence.

"If Lord Xiao is not here to visit my Black Ship Workshop, then he must be requesting something from the exhibits?" Boss Jia raised his eyebrows.

"That's right." Xiao Wuyou said without hesitation.

At this moment, the thoughts of the other three people were fleeting.

Su Xiaoyu and Ouyang Jing were both extremely confused. What on earth could it be that Xiao Wuyou was interested in?

But Zhang Huiyi's face became noticeably gloomy, and his hands clenched unconsciously.

Xiao Wuyou, I didn't expect you to want that thing! Unfortunately, that treasure is very deep, you can't grasp it at all!

Boss Jia had a vague guess and was in a dilemma.

He and Zhang Huiyi agreed to give that thing to a certain master. Although the Juejian Sect was powerful, it was far away from home. Moreover, Xiao Wuyou was only a Yuanying of the younger generation, and it was still unknown how much of the rumors were true. It was clear who should be licked and who should be offended.

"Master Xiao, don't blame me for being ruthless. The thing you want is not very convenient. I have so many treasures in my Black Ship Shop. Don't you have any that you like?" Boss Jia sighed very exaggeratedly, as if he was really worried about Xiao Wu.

When Xiao Wuyou heard this, he actually found it a little funny.

Brother, the main thing is that I really don't need the stuff on your broken boat! It's OK to buy a few to give away, but I came here just to buy you a few souvenirs, right?

But at this moment, Xiao Wuyou caught a glimpse of the pure white on the booth out of the corner of his eye.

"Not that I don't."

"That's interesting."

Boss Jia wiped his sweat and said, "Oh, Master Xiao, why didn't you tell me earlier? We can just be friends. You don't have to pay. Master Xiao, I'll give you whatever you want...?!"

Boss Jia, who was cheerful just now, froze completely the moment he saw the exhibits.

On the exhibition stand filled with rare herbs, magic weapons, and skills, only that touch of pure white was so eye-catching, making everything around it pale in comparison, as if it was the only snowflake falling in the night sky.

"Everyone, please look! This is our auction item second only to the grand finale treasure tonight, the demon beast white fox!"

"What do you want? A loyal fighter, a loving and sweet Taoist partner, or a fox demon who is charming and enchanting only for you? No matter what you want, this is the only choice!"

The entire auction venue cheered, erupting with enthusiasm like a volcanic eruption.

"The starting price is 1000 medium-quality spirit stones!"

Even the famous divine weapons on the Divine Sword Ranking only sold for more than 700 medium-grade spirit stones, which was equivalent to the annual expenditure of a local big family. Even at such a high price, the host's voice was instantly swallowed up by the bidding sounds one after another.

At this time, Xiao Wuyou looked at the dazed Boss Jia and said with a leisurely smile: "I wonder if Boss Jia can give me a ride?"

Chapter 20: Spending Money to Eliminate Disasters

-----------------

The reason why Xiao Wuyou wanted this little white fox was not because he wanted it for himself, but because he noticed that his junior sister was staring at the little thing in a trance.

Could it be that this thing is related to Junior Sister’s luck?

It would be hard to say if you don’t buy it and take a look, so he just said it casually.

Seeing that Boss Jia's expression suddenly changed and he was speechless for a long time, Xiao Wuyou had to give up and said, "It's just a joke, Boss Jia, did you take it seriously?"

The little white fox was indeed precious, and he couldn't take advantage of it. Xiao Wuyou had no choice but to give up and obediently light the spirit stones in his ring.

But seeing that the buyers around him were like crazy and the prices were being driven higher and higher, Xiao Wuyou suddenly felt like he was watching a pyramid scheme and was a little reluctant to pay.

"Haha, so that's how it is. Sir Xiao, you really know how to joke..."

"etc!"

Boss Jia was laughing there, but was pulled aside by Zhang Huiyi.

"Master Xiao, please watch first. I want to discuss some business matters with Boss Jia!"

Without waiting for Boss Jia to speak, Zhang Huiyi dragged him away from his seat and came to a corner of the auction venue.

"Boss Jia, why don't you just let him take care of this little white fox?"

"Are you crazy?!"

When Boss Jia heard this, his eyes almost popped out of his head: "Do you know how much this white fox cost me? Apart from the treasure I gave to that gentleman, this is the most valuable exhibit I have ever received! This white fox is more than what I usually earn from ten auctions!"

Zhang Huiyi smiled grimly after hearing this: "That's better than letting him take that thing away from you!"

Boss Jia was completely confused, scratching his already sparsely haired head: "Wait a minute? What do you mean by robbing? Aren't these upright young masters your guests?"

Boss Jia's words almost gave Zhang Huiyi a stitch in the side.

"What a deity! On the surface, they come to the East China Sea to eliminate monsters, but in reality they come to punish evil, promote good and uphold justice! They are eliminating gangsters and evil, and the ones they are eliminating are us!" Zhang Huiyi managed to lower his voice and said through gritted teeth.

Only then did Boss Jia finally realize the seriousness of the problem. He felt like he was walking on a tightrope and one wrong step would lead him into the abyss.

Sure enough, the righteous disciples of Juejian Sect and Lingshou Manor would not covet the black market auction at all, and they would not tolerate any sand in their eyes! Boss Jia was ashamed of his ignorance now.

That adult may have the power to challenge the four major righteous sects, but won’t they, the small characters, be abandoned by then?

"Then, City Lord Zhang, what do you think we should do? Just give the treasure directly to them!"

"No. If we send them away, we will anger that master again, and we will still be dead!"

Just when Boss Jia's face turned pale and he was almost out of breath, Zhang Huiyi changed the subject: "But there is still a way."

"If we can keep this bowl of water even, we still have a way to survive!"

"Xiao Wuyou is not a simple person. He found out about us in just a few days. But he has never mentioned the treasure so far, which means he doesn't know the existence of the treasure! He also doesn't know about that adult!"

"More importantly, he could have taken action at any time, but he hasn't done it until now. Why do you think that is?" Zhang Huiyi smiled meaningfully.

Boss Jia is also a smart man. He understood Zhang Huiyi's intention after a little hint and asked in surprise: "He is asking for a benefit from us?"

"Yes! If he doesn't do anything, he is asking for hush money! A righteous person who can be bought is not an enemy, but a friend! Boss Jia, you are a businessman, you should be able to settle this account, right?"

This doesn't even need to be calculated. If no benefits are granted, there are four true disciples in front of them, two of whom are the chiefs of the four major sects, which is enough to scatter their ashes.

But if they can be bribed, even if they can get some inside information from them, it will be profitable. Not to mention the potential opportunities for cooperation. For example, the information about the location of a trial of the Absolute Sword Sect, there are many evil sects willing to pay for this kind of information!

Of course, it’s impossible not to feel sad when giving the little white fox away for free.

But the crisis left him no choice, and thinking about the potential business opportunities in the next ten years, Boss Jia finally hardened his heart and nodded.

"But you have to pay half of my little white fox's money!"

"You can go out, you can go out." Zhang Huiyi forced a smile that was uglier than bitterness.

It makes sense to spend money to avoid disasters, but how can you not feel bad if you really have to spend money? At least for the next few years, he will have to tighten his belt to live.

The two of them came back happily, and Xiao Wuyou was holding up the sign and was about to make a bid, but they stopped him.

"Master Xiao, wait a minute!"

"You haven't gotten anything good today. Since you like this little white fox, how about giving it to you as a gift?" Boss Jia smiled, but his heart was bleeding with every word he spoke.

"Oh, this is not good, right? This little thing is quite expensive, right? I was just joking." Xiao Wuyou felt a little embarrassed. He had been eating and living for free in the City Lord's Mansion in recent days, and now he was taking advantage of others. He felt that he had taken advantage of Luoshui City unknowingly.

Boss Jia's expression suddenly regained its brilliance. "Since you said so, then even if..."

Zhang Huiyi pulled him back and came up to Xiao Wuyou and said with a smile: "Master Xiao, what are you talking about? This is just a small gift from me. Don't worry about the money. This little money is nothing to Boss Jia!"

"Em......."

Xiao Wuyou looked at the little white fox in the distance and felt a little confused for a moment.

It was indeed stunning at first glance, but upon closer inspection, the little white fox was scratching its head with its hind legs, yawning and rubbing the cage, and then circling around its big tail.

This thing...why doesn't it look so smart?!

"Brother Xiao, since City Lord Zhang and Boss Jia are so kind, why don't you accept it?" Ouyang Jing on the side finally couldn't help but say it.

"Among the beast pets, the dragon, phoenix and unicorn are the most respected, and the fox is the most valuable. Among them, the white fox is the bloodline of the Western Region Demon Lord. Its rarity is comparable to that of a divine weapon. No, if it can be trained well, it can even surpass a divine weapon in the future!" As Ouyang Jing spoke, a hint of fanaticism flashed in his eyes.

If it weren't for Zhulong, Ouyang Jing would have wanted to join the competition as he would not have been able to control such a high-level monster with his cultivation level.

Xiao Wuyou complained weakly: "But I don't really need it..."

Ouyang Jing was fine. After all, he deeply understood Xiao Wuyou's strength and profundity. He could only sigh and say, "Brother Xiao is indeed more arrogant than others."

Boss Jia was so angry that he almost vomited blood. If Zhang Huiyi hadn't held him tightly, he would have probably started cursing in a fit of rage.

"My lord, what are you saying? Even if you don't need it, you can give it to your junior sister. This little thing is so cute, it's a perfect match for your junior sister!" Seeing that Xiao Wuyou was not interested, Zhang Huiyi quickly added.

Xiao Wuyou looked back and saw that the junior sister was indeed staring at the little white fox. She looked happy and wanted something, but was too embarrassed to speak. He immediately said, "In that case, I'd better obey your command respectfully."

It's free anyway, so I might as well give it to my junior sister to test out and see if this little thing is really hers.

"8000 medium-grade spirit stones, 8000! Is there a higher price?"

"That's it! The bid is 10000, and the auction is over!" Boss Jia announced immediately.

Chapter 21: Be patient for a while

-------------------------

"That's it! The bid is 10000, and the auction is over!" Boss Jia announced immediately.

Everyone was in high spirits when they heard this voice. They turned back angrily, but when they saw that the man was the big boss of the Black Ship Shop and that the local tyrant City Lord Zhang was standing next to him, they all shut up and dared to hold back their anger.

A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. In the territory of Heishanfang, half of the people dare not mess with these two.

However, not everyone can swallow this breath.

"Boss Jia, what do you mean? If you don't want to sell it, why do you have to tease us with this white fox and make us happy?"

The speaker was a young man in a black gilded robe. Although he was young, he exuded the aura of a mid-stage Nascent Soul. Several beautiful and revealing beauties were serving him, and behind him was an old man in a black robe who also had the aura of a Nascent Soul.

When the people around saw this, they all laughed secretly.

"The young master of the Tyrant Beast Sect is unhappy. Boss Jia and City Lord Zhang are going to suffer."

"Oh, everyone knows that the young master of the Tyrant Beast Sect is about to advance, and is worried about not having a suitable beast pet. How could he let go of a top-grade demon beast like the white fox right in front of him?!"

Xiao Wuyou heard the people around him talking, so he asked curiously: "Who is this little brother?"

"Brother Xiao, this is Aolang, the young master of the Tyrant Beast Sect, one of the seven sects of the Demonic Path! He practices the art of taming beasts, and he may have set his sights on the white fox." Zhang Huiyi explained while wiping his sweat, forcing a very forced smile, "But don't worry, Boss Jia can handle it..."

"Zhang Huiyi! Don't do these sneaky things. Don't think I don't know that you are behind the Black Ship Workshop! You don't have the courage to play tricks on my Seven Sects of Demonic Dao. Tell me, who are you playing these tricks for? You give away the thing I like so much!" Aolang roared loudly, and his spiritual power blew. Everyone felt a fierce and violent aura spreading out, which made people feel afraid.

Zhang Huiyi and Boss Jia looked at each other, each more panicked than the other.

This guy was so busy with Xiao Wuyou that he forgot that there was also someone from the Seven Sects of Demonic Path! This guy is no pushover!

There are four major sects in the righteous path, and the seven sects of the devil path compete with them. However, the seven sects of the devil path are actually just seven major factions stationed in various places under the leader of the devil sect. In terms of size, a single sect is actually not as big as the four major sects.

But the problem is, if we deal with Xiao Wuyou today, what will we do if the people from the Demonic Path come knocking on our door tomorrow? The Demonic Path is the big brother of the underground world, and going against the big brother is like looking for food in the toilet? !

Just as Zhang Huiyi and Boss Jia were staring at each other, something happened that made them even more desperate.

"My little brother, I don't really want this little thing. If you want it, I'll give it to you." Xiao Wuyou said in a friendly manner.

Xiao Wuyou also heard about the affairs of the Seven Sects of the Demonic Path. Thinking that less trouble is better, he still showed a friendly attitude.

If the righteous sects did not hold a demon extermination, it would actually be considered a spontaneous act. There was no rule that if it was a demon, the righteous monks had to fight to the death. Xiao Wuyou did not really want to provoke the demons for something that he had no clues about.

But when Aolang heard this, his face suddenly darkened.

"Little brother? There aren't many people in this world who dare to talk to me like this! Who do you think you are?!"

Aolang released a powerful spiritual pressure directly in the direction of Xiao Wuyou.

The people around him felt their legs sink and they knelt down involuntarily. Even the beauty and the old man beside Ao Lang bowed slightly, as if he was the only one respected in the world.

However, under this pressure, Xiao Wuyou's expression changed and he smiled faintly.

"I am..."

"Aolang, you dare to be so presumptuous in front of Brother Xiao?"

Xiao Wuyou was about to speak when Ouyang Jing stepped forward first, opened his eyes slightly, and stared at Ao Lang with his purple candle magic pupils.

After just one encounter, Aolang's momentum collapsed.

"This is the chief of the Absolute Sword Sect, the senior brother of the sword art, and the true disciple of the headmaster, Xiao Wuyou! It is not your turn to act presumptuously in front of him!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the guests were like frightened birds, fleeing away from Xiao Wuyou as soon as possible. Some of them were so panicked that they even fled towards Aolang.

It would have been better if he hadn't said anything. Now that Ouyang Jing has stepped forward and has the identity of Xiao Wuyou, if a few righteous people have sneaked into the auction held by a gang of evil forces, it would be weird if they are not afraid.

Ao Lang looked up at Xiao Wuyou with a wild expression, but he was worried in his heart.

He and Ouyang Jing had fought several times, with both sides winning and losing. In fact, Lun's own strength was even higher than Ouyang Jing, but the bloodline of his pet was not as good as Zhulong's, so he wanted to seize the demon fox.
