336: Chapter 12 "Pick me! Pick me! Pick me!"

Yun Tiankai: ...

Why was this Male Beastman so fickle?

Just a moment ago, when he heard she was looking for a Beast Husband, he had looked at her with such anticipation.

His whole face had been practically screaming, "Pick me! Pick me! Pick me!"

He was just one step away from shifting into his Beast Form and wagging his tail!

Yet, only a few minutes later, he had already had a change of heart.

Yun Tiankai turned around helplessly and looked at Tang Longyan behind her.

Realizing that she had actually been glaring at Tang Longyan, a Male Beastman of the Wolf Tribe, she hurriedly reigned in her expression.

But because she had pulled back too quickly, she only had time to widen her eyes, transforming her look into one of innocence.

Yun Tiankai: ...

Why was his expression so blank? It was so cute!!!!

Yun Tiankai gave a light cough to cover up the screaming inside her heart.

She said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I might have to trouble you to keep looking for me."

"It's fine."

As he spoke, he stepped forward and reached out his hand, wanting her to turn back into a little fox and jump into his arms.

Yun Tiankai, however, looked around and said, "I think it's quite safe here. Why don't I wait for you here?"

"You can bring them over together; that will save time."

Tang Longyan withdrew his hand, feeling a bit lost.

"Alright then..." His gaze drifted elsewhere, "Just don't wander off."

After saying this, he spread his wings and flew toward the sky.

[Host, this time, regardless of whether you like the Male Beastman he brings back or not, you must choose one! Otherwise, your life might be in danger!] the little system reminded her.

Yun Tiankai: [Who said I must rely on a Male Beastman to farm Existence Points?]

[Then how will you—]

Before the little system could finish, it saw Yun Tiankai turn around and walk toward the forest not far away.

Tang Longyan, standing on the mountaintop, saw this scene.

He couldn't help but open his palm, and an invisible Barrier expanded within a radius of 500 meters around Yun Tiankai.

With the protection of the Barrier, she couldn't get out, and danger from the outside couldn't get in.

He stared at her for a few more seconds.

Only then did Tang Longyan fly off into the distance again.

He had to admit that he liked this Female Beastman of the White Fox Tribe a little bit.

But she was too weak.

It was impossible for them to have a future together.

Therefore, helping her choose a reliable Beast Husband was the only thing he could do for her.

[little system, can all these things be put up for sale?]

Yun Tiankai held up a handful of wild grass she had gathered, her arms full of wild fruits of various colors.

She had long realized that in addition to increasing Emotional Activity to boost Existence Points, she could also increase them by boosting Trading Activity.

It was just that the gathering place was quite barren, and there wasn't anything to sell.

Actually, she had already planned yesterday to gather some things and try selling them when she came out with Tang Longyan today.

little system: [You can, but these things don't look valuable at all.]

[But there are over a dozen types! Doesn't gathering a wide variety also prove that I am a real person and not a "fake person"?]

little system: [That seems to have some logic to it...]

Yun Tiankai listed the weeds and wild fruits in her hands one by one.

The little system stared at the Trading Activity and Existence Points.

[The change is too small; you are wasting more time than the time you are gaining.]

Yun Tiankai: [I have to try! What if one of them turns out to be a rare species!]

Yun Tiankai set the prices very low.

There was only one golden-orange fruit; she thought the color was pretty, so she made an outrageous demand and listed it for 8000 points. It didn't matter if it didn't sell anyway.

After she finished listing everything.

She suddenly discovered that the items she had just listed had all turned gray.

At the same time, the sound of "clinking" gold coins came through.

[What is going on?] Yun Tiankai asked in confusion.

Could it be a system malfunction?

[Ho... how is that possible?] the little system said in disbelief.

[What's wrong? Is the system broken?]

[They sold.]

[Sold? So fast!]

Yun Tiankai hurriedly checked her points.

She had gained a total of 200 points.

Her asking prices were very low, so these 200 points must be the earnings from the items she had just listed.

[How could someone buy grass? Are these grasses all traditional Chinese medicine?]

Even so, some should be, and some shouldn't, right?

Yun Tiankai opened the transaction history and discovered that the items had all been bought by a merchant from the Cultivation Plane named Zi Tan.

Yun Tiankai sent a message to that person, [Hello, may I ask, do you need more of this grass? I have more here. What do you use these things for?]

The last sentence was purely out of her own curiosity.

She didn't expect the other party to answer.

Surprisingly, the other party replied very quickly, [Hello, the spiritual energy in our Cultivation World is currently thin. Plants were polluted by demonic energy during the war between immortals and demons. We need these spiritual plants that are completely unpolluted and have absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to use for alchemy and cultivation.]

Yun Tiankai: !!

Then wouldn't the Barren Continent be full of treasures everywhere!

In the Beast World, where would there be any polluted plants!

She was just about to ask the other party how much they needed and, incidentally, discuss the price.

Suddenly, she heard a "clinking" sound.

That fruit priced at 8000 had actually sold too!

Yun Tiankai widened her eyes in shock.

8000! That was 400 steamed buns!

It actually sold!

She had thought that the previous items sold fast because she had priced them cheaply.

Yun Tiankai scrolled down through the transaction history.

She discovered that this time, it hadn't been bought by the merchant from the Cultivation Plane.

Instead, it had been bought by a plane merchant from the Wasteland World.

This time, without even asking, Yun Tiankai knew what was going on.

The Wasteland World—

Although she didn't understand what kind of world it was, she knew just by hearing the name.

It must be a place of ruins or something like that...

Then fresh fruit must be extremely precious to them.

It was just like how a plain, ordinary watermelon would skyrocket in value once it reached the "Stick Country."

Yun Tiankai instantly had full confidence!

She didn't need a Beast Husband to survive in this world!

Yun Tiankai was full of motivation.

While frantically pulling grass and picking fruit, she chatted with Dikela, the merchant from the Wasteland World, and Zi Tan.

Since she now knew that this grass was very precious to the Cultivation World, Yun Tiankai naturally couldn't sell it to him so cheaply anymore.

But she also didn't dare to raise the price too high for fear of scaring the other party away.

In the end, she closed the deal with Zi Tan at a price of 100 per piece for ordinary quality.

Dikela was even more generous, directly throwing over a deposit of one million points.

Yun Tiankai was stunned.

She had an unreal feeling, like she had suddenly won the lottery.

It took a long time for her to come back to her senses, and she replied: [But there aren't that many golden fruits here anymore...]

As a merchant, one must be honest.

Dikela: [It's okay, other fruits are fine too; you set the price.]

[If you don't have enough on hand right now, you can give them to me later.]

Yun Tiankai: [You are truly too generous!]

little system: [In the Wasteland World, gold and other heavy metals are the least valuable things! He takes these heavy metals to exchange for points with plane merchants from the human world. Then he buys unpolluted fruit from you.]

Hearing the little system mention the human world, Yun Tiankai asked curiously: [Why don't you buy fruit from merchants in the human world? Fruit from the human world should be cheaper, right?]

On the sales board, the prices of item transactions were all public.

Yun Tiankai didn't need to hide anything just to make money.

Dikela was silent for a while before replying: [To be honest, plants that haven't been subjected to any pollution, artificial modification, or ripening processes are useful for our research on purifiers.]

Yun Tiankai hadn't even had time to ask— "What is a purifier?"

She just heard a burst of footsteps approaching.

She returned to reality from her spiritual consciousness.

She saw that Tang Longyan was already standing in front of her before she knew it.

Behind him, two Male Beastmen were following at a distance.

"These two..."

He reached out and pointed behind him, his expression displeased.

Just thinking that she had to choose one of these two Male Beastmen to be her Beast Husband in order to survive made him feel stuffy and very uncomfortable inside.

Yun Tiankai's gaze swept briefly over the two nervous Male Beastmen.

"Then I'll choose—"

She deliberately dragged out her voice, pointing her finger back and forth between the two Male Beastmen.

Finally, she pointed at Tang Longyan.
