Chapter 101: Black Scales

After more than two hours, Huan Liuli held her swollen belly and could not help but mutter,

“Master, you’ve gotten me pregnant.”

Ye Xiao glanced at her and swallowed the roast meat in his mouth.

“Then put down the fish in your mouth.”

“No, I can digest it. I can still continue eating.”

Huan Liuli stuck out her stomach and followed beside Ye Xiao. She looked at Ye Xiao’s stomach in confusion.

It was strange. Why did Ye Xiao’s stomach not grow at all?

He ate a lot more than she did.

In fact, that was also the reason why he cultivated the Indestructible Diamond Divine Art.

The Indestructible Diamond Divine Art cultivated both inside and outside.

The external cultivated the muscles, bones, and skin, while the internal cultivated the five viscera and six bowels.

The heart, spleen, liver, stomach, kidney… After the strengthening of the cultivation technique, the entire digestive system had long been upgraded to an unimaginable level.

To him, the speed of digestion of ordinary food was extremely fast. Moreover, it would not cause him to become fat, and he would not easily support himself.

Unless he ate something that was full of blood essence and spiritual energy, his digestion might be slower.

For example… The divine level King El.

Ye Xiao had been thinking about King El for a long time.

Ever since he read King El’s information, he could not help but think of himevery time he drank mutton soup and beef soup.

King El looked like a wildebeest. He did not know whether it was a sheep or a cow.

However, its body full of explosive muscles had always been coveted by Ye Xiao.

Braised meat made from tendons was the most delicious. It was chewy and delicate.

Moreover, King El’s cultivation was very high. His meat would definitely be filled with vitality and could indirectly raise a portion of Ye Xiao’s cultivation.

Ye Xiao had decided very early on that only half of King El’s flesh and blood essence would be used to refine pills. The remaining half would be twenty pounds of kebabs, twenty pounds of leg bones to make soup, twenty pounds to make braised meat, and twenty pounds to make potato stew.

The master and servant duo ate as they walked. Around 12 o’clock, the black market was at its liveliest.

All sorts of stalls were set up.

At that moment, there were also a few members of the garrison stationed and patrolling. Among them was actually Gu Hai.

After the intensive training in the special training camp, his cultivation had already advanced to Houtian fourth grade, and he was about to reach his limit. It should not be long before he could advance to Houtian fifth grade. Even the muscles on his arms had become much stronger and his skin had also become much tanner.

It could be seen that he was now putting in a lot of effort for the sake of his wife and children.

He had already changed his appearance so Ye Xiao did not mind walking past him.

A beautiful colleague with short hair beside Gu Hai swallowed her saliva.

“That guy who just passed by is so handsome.”

Gu Hai glanced at Ye Xiao and could not help but roll his eyes.

“What do you mean by handsome? My bro is much more handsome than him.”

“Is he the one we met the last time we went to the library to check?”

“That’s right!”

“That’s true. I still haven’t forgotten about that guy’s looks even now. Does he have a girlfriend? If he doesn’t have a girlfriend, you can give my WeChat to him.”

“That won’t do. My bro is so good-looking. If you’re not the school Belle, you don’t deserve him at all. Although you’re not bad-looking, you’re at most a class Belle. It’s too bad but you can’t date my bro.”

Ye Xiao, who had already walked far away, could not help but feel gratified when he heard that.

Gu Hai treated him quite well. It was not a waste for him to be his good friend.

“I have two movie tickets here. You can bring your wife to see them.”

“I’ll send his WeChat to you right now.”

Ye Xiao staggered and was careless.

That scoundrel actually sold him for two movie tickets.

Forget it, let’s get back to business.

The Big Dipper’s Grand Mystery activated and scanned the entire black market. Ye Xiao had already found what he wanted at the moment.

He came to a stall. The owner’s cultivation was Houtian third grade. He was a middle-aged man wearing a leather jacket.

When he saw him, he immediately asked with a smile,

“Young man, what do you want to buy?”

“I want to see if there are any materials for refining weapons. Ones that are of high quality and more special.”

“Of course there are. You have come to the right place. Look at this, an extraordinary-level rock turtle shell! This is a one-of-a-kind transcendent-grade item. You should know that when buying a star pet, the greater the bloodline, the better. However, when buying the materials for refining weapons, the higher the strength of the star beast, the better.

“Buy this thing back and make it into a heart protection mirror or something. I’ll guarantee that you’ll be fine even after a lesser grandmaster attack!

“Also, this is a lesser transcendent-grade firefox skin that can be made into a vest. Not only can it defend against some spiritual energy attacks, but it can also warm the shoulders, invigorate the blood, reduce the soreness in the arms, and increase combat strength…”

“Yes.”

Ye Xiao answered without much thought. He did not care too much about those things.

What he really cared about was a fractured scale. It was only half the size of a palm, but the underlying substance on it was still pretty good.

“How much is this thing worth?”

“This?”

The peddler saw that Ye Xiao was interested in that scale and could not help but be a little surprised.

“I didn’t expect that you would be able to recognize the magnificence of this scale. Young man, you have some skills.

“This thing is something I received from a friend. It’s a good thing. I heard that it was picked up in the Lingnan mountain col. Unfortunately, it’s only half a scale. If it’s used to refine weapons, I reckon that it won’t be able to refine anything good.

“If you want it, I’d say it’s worth about 8,000 yuan.”

When Ye Xiao heard that, he smiled and put down the scale again.

“That’s quite the price. I can tell this scale is worth a lot but as you said, it’s been broken in half. The things that could be refined with it are pitifully few. Moreover, one had to find a sufficiently strong armament master to be able to refine it. Which fool would buy it for 8,000 yuan?”

The peddler rubbed his nose and smiled awkwardly.

“You know your stuff, young man. How unexpected since I’ve never seen you around these parts before. Alright, I’ll treat it as making a new friend. You get to keep it at 5,000 yuan.”

“1,500 yuan.”

Ye Xiao suddenly spoke, causing the smile on the peddler’s face to instantly vanish.

“Phew. Young man, your bargaining is a little ruthless.”

“All or nothing. 1,500 yuan. Think about it yourself.”

The other party helplessly waved his hand.

“You win, take it. But in the future, you have to patronize me more.”

“Definitely.”

After Ye Xiao made the trade, he took the scale and left.

In reality, the main body of that scale should only be at the extraordinary level. In the entire black market, there were many things that were better than it.

Among them, there were also many materials from grandmaster-level star beasts.

However, what Ye Xiao cared about was not anything else, but that scale. It was very fresh and still had some life. That meant that it was not plucked from the star beast’s body after it died, but dropped from a living star beast.

The reason why he had bought the scale was that he wanted to try refining something of a high grade.

Secondly, he wanted to find the source of the scale.

After that exchange, he already knew that the scale came from the Lingnan mountain forest.
