712: Wanbaolou

In the ruins of Black Fire Town, Bai Yuliang’s expression had become incredibly grim.

The lack of vital essence within these Dead Spirits made him feel that his guess was nearing the truth.

Someone in the Demon Beast Forest was competing with him for the vital essence of the Dead Spirits.

Moreover, this fellow was utterly careless in his actions, making no attempt to conceal anything, forcing him to expend resources to cover for the other party.

Thinking about how he had to take the blame and then cover for a competitor, Bai Yuliang felt incredibly frustrated.

What the hell is this!

"The Magic Treasures refined from Dead Spirit vital essence are only a few types, and their refining methods are all controlled by the Holy Lands."

"This guy must be from one of the other Holy Lands."

"No, if this guy continues to mess around in the Demon Beast Forest, it will definitely attract the attention of the Dead Spirit Race’s powerhouses."

"I must find him!"

Bai Yuliang thought bitterly, waving his hand to unleash a flame that incinerated the piled-up Dead Spirits into ashes, then turned and left the spot.

…

Wang Chen, who had annihilated the Dead Spirits of Black Fire Town, did not know that he had already been targeted.

Returning to his inn room, he immediately began to rest.

The night passed without a word.

The next day, as the sun rose, after feeding the Dark Tyrant Ape Cub, he directly left the inn.

After annihilating Black Fire Town last night, he obtained some processed Demonic Beast Materials.

These things were of no value to him, so it was perfect to sell them and exchange them for the common Holy Quartzs of the Netherworld.

The High Grade Holy Quartz on him was too conspicuous in the Netherworld and not easily used.

The day before yesterday, Wang Chen had already explored Green Field Town thoroughly, so after leaving the inn, he directly headed to the commercial district, knowing the way by heart.

Soon, he arrived in front of a shop with an exquisite facade.

Wanbao Pavilion.

This was the largest shop in Green Field Town, a branch of the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce established here, and its reputation in Green Field Town was quite good.

Moreover, the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce had strong power and a complete range of goods for sale, and it was said to have the Xuantian Holy Land as its powerful backer.

"Young Master, what would you like to buy?"

As soon as he entered Wanbao Pavilion, a pretty maid greeted him, asking with a smile.

"I want to sell some Demonic Beast Materials."

Wang Chen glanced around and directly stated his purpose.

"Alright, Young Master, I will take you to a private room first."

Hearing that Wang Chen wasn't buying anything, the maid's expression remained unchanged, and she still led the way with a smile.

"Young Master, the Demonic Beast Materials need to be appraised. Please wait here, and I will go invite the appraiser from the shop."

Upon reaching the private room, the maid politely served Wang Chen tea, then smiled and excused herself.

Soon.

A middle-aged man around fifty years old entered the private room.

"This humble one is Zhang Ming, the appraiser of Wanbao Pavilion. Young Master, you may take out the Demonic Beast Materials you wish to sell for me to appraise."

Zhang Ming cupped his hands towards Wang Chen and said politely:

"Young Master, please rest assured, my Wanbao Pavilion has an excellent reputation. The Demonic Beast Materials appraised by me will definitely be given a reasonable price. If Young Master has any doubts, you can take them to other shops for comparison."

"Good."

Wang Chen nodded upon hearing this, and with a wave of his hand, he took out the gains he had obtained from Black Fire Town.

Immediately, various Demonic Beast Materials containing strong demonic power piled up to almost a person's height in the private room, directly leaving Zhang Ming dumbfounded.

Although these Materials obtained from Black Fire Town were not highly valued in Wang Chen's eyes, this was based on his perspective. In Green Field Town, they were definitely a huge fortune.

As an appraiser for Wanbao Pavilion, even with his extensive knowledge, the nearly person-high pile of Demonic Beast Materials before him still made him feel enlightened.

Not to mention, with his sharp eyes, he spotted quite a few extremely rare and seldom-seen good items among this pile of Demonic Beast Materials.

Moreover…

"Could this Young Master have raided some faction's warehouse?"

Zhang Ming also discovered that these Demonic Beast Materials were processed with extremely professional techniques, maximizing the retention of their demonic power with almost no loss. From his perspective, he couldn't find any flaws, so they absolutely couldn't have been freshly slaughtered and preserved on site.

For a moment, looking at the calm Wang Chen before him, Zhang Ming's attitude immediately became respectful.

"Young Master, please wait a moment. These Materials will likely take me some time to appraise."

"There is a dedicated area in the pavilion for guests to pass the time. If Young Master is interested, you can ask the maid to guide you there."

Zhang Ming said, trying to please, with a hint of slyness in his tone.

"No need."

Seeing this, Wang Chen guessed that the so-called area for passing time was not a proper place, and directly shook his head in refusal.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ming said nothing more, politely cupped his hands, and then entered his work state, picking up the Demonic Beast Materials to begin appraising.

As soon as he got his hands on these Demonic Beast Materials, he couldn't help but be even more surprised.

Every piece of Demonic Beast Material was preserved extremely well, with almost negligible loss of internal demonic power; each one could be called a High Grade item.

However, the preservation methods of these Demonic Beast Materials were vastly different from those of the Human Race, more resembling those specialized by the Dead Spirit Race.

"This Young Master is probably an extremely powerful cultivator, and these Demonic Beast Materials were all plundered from the gathering places of the Dead Spirit Race."

After handling a few pieces, Zhang Ming thought with some shock in his heart, his gaze involuntarily stealing glances at Wang Chen.

Daring to leave the protection range of the magic dispelling array at night to operate in the wild, and even entering the gathering places of the Dead Spirit Race to plunder.

There was no such powerhouse in the entire Green Field Town.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem with these Demonic Beast Materials?"

Noticing Zhang Ming's gaze constantly observing him, Wang Chen couldn't help but frown.

Could it be that these Demonic Beast Materials, after being processed by the Dead Spirit Race, had become worthless to humans?

"Young Master, may I ask if these Demonic Beast Materials come from the Dead Spirit Race?"

When Wang Chen asked, Zhang Ming put down the Materials in his hand and asked politely.

"That's right. Does Wanbao Pavilion not accept Demonic Beast Materials processed by the Dead Spirit Race?"

Wang Chen nodded, not hiding the origin of these Demonic Beast Materials.

After all, since Zhang Ming asked this, he must have seen something from these Demonic Beast Materials.

"Young Master, you misunderstand."

"These Demonic Beast Materials are all High Grade items, and my Wanbao Pavilion certainly accepts them."

Zhang Ming quickly said upon hearing this:

"It's just that because these Demonic Beast Materials have all been processed by the Dead Spirit Race, we will have to remove the methods they left on them after we acquire them."

"So the price offered will be one level lower than the normal price."

"I see."

Wang Chen nodded upon hearing this, then waved his hand indifferently, telling Zhang Ming to continue appraising.

Wang Chen didn't care how many Holy Quartzs these Demonic Beast Materials could sell for; he just wanted to prepare some Holy Quartzs that could be used normally in the Netherworld.
