33: Who is the prey? A different kind of black market.

The sky gradually darkened.

The two left the Old Tavern.

Qin Wushang reluctantly paid the bill, spending nearly fifteen thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones!

He had never imagined that the second true disciple of a academy would find an excuse to pretend to go to the restroom to avoid paying for Spirit Stones.

"Junior Brother Qin, why did you pay the bill?"

"I was planning to pay once I sobered up. You paying makes Senior Sister feel so awkward!"

Ye Hongfu said with an embarrassed look.

She also wanted to pay the bill, but she got carried away drinking and added quite a bit more wine, directly pushing the bill to fifteen thousand.

She was poor!

Having just broken through to the True God Realm, she really didn't have many Spirit Stones!

She originally thought of coming out to the Imperial City to see if she could "borrow" some from someone before going back to pay the bill.

Unexpectedly, Qin Wushang paid the bill!

"Then, Senior Sister, can you return the Spirit Stones to me? It's a total of fifteen thousand six hundred sixty-six High-Grade Spirit Stones!"

Qin Wushang said directly.

Ye Hongfu: "..."

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"Junior Brother Qin! You said it yourself, Senior Sister saved you, and you were going to treat Senior Sister to drinks!"

"It's only right that you pay the bill!"

Ye Hongfu immediately changed her tune, her face slightly red.

She hadn't expected it!

Qin Wushang actually took her polite words at face value!

He didn't care about appearances at all and asked for Spirit Stones!

"But when we came, it seemed Senior Sister said she would treat me to drinks, and I said I had no Spirit Stones."

Qin Wushang said.

"Ah, was there such a thing? I don't know!"

"Doesn't Junior Brother have Spirit Stones now? You must have remembered wrong!"

"If Junior Brother really wants to drink, Senior Sister will definitely treat you next time! Definitely treat you, alright!"

Ye Hongfu turned and walked towards the street.

At the same time!

She cursed Li Wuyou over and over in her heart.

"Never again! Never again! I'll never come back here!"

"That damn scammer!"

"How could it have increased in price so much!"

"Making me look bad in front of Qin Wushang, I'm never coming back to your place!"

The sword immortal brew had increased in price, which she hadn't expected.

And it had tripled!

Otherwise, she wouldn't have run up such an overbudget bill!

"Um... Junior Brother Qin, didn't we say we were going to the black market? It's about time, we can go now!"

She turned back and said to Qin Wushang.

Qin Wushang slowly followed.

If he didn't know how to get to the black market, he would definitely not go with Ye Hongfu!

Being a scammer was one thing, but she was completely different from the Ye Hongfu he knew in his previous life!

This was a drunkard, and a reckless one at that!

...The Imperial City of the capital was divided into the inner city and outer city. The inner city was the Chu family's territory, and only high-ranking officials and nobles could enter.

But the outer city was accessible!

The two weaved through the many markets in the outer city, eventually entering a casino.

Ye Hongfu went up and spoke a few words to a casino attendant, paid some Spirit Stones, and then received a pink cloth strip.

On the pink cloth strip were two names and a ghost mask pattern.

This was one of the passes to the black market!

"Junior Brother Qin! From now on, we are Dao Companions. You must hold my hand, otherwise, it's easy to give ourselves away!"

Ye Hongfu showed the pink cloth strip to Qin Wushang, then raised her left hand.

"There's such a rule?"

Qin Wushang wondered.

"Of course! Not just anyone can enter. The pass we received requires us to be Dao Companions, otherwise, we cannot pass!"

"Hurry up! Just like them, hold hands and slowly walk in!"

Ye Hongfu urged.

Ahead, there were men and women holding pink cloth strips, slowly walking hand in hand.

But there were also those holding black cloth strips, walking alone.

"Senior Sister! It seems the black ones allow you to enter alone! Look, isn't that person going in by himself?"

Qin Wushang glanced and said.

"The black ones are sold out!"

"We only bought pink ones, hurry up! If we're any later, we might miss the time!"

Ye Hongfu casually explained, then directly took Qin Wushang's right hand and walked forward.

She was very tall, as tall as Qin Wushang, and walked very fast, quickly pulling him through layers of light curtains, finally entering the pink passage.

There were people both in front and behind them, just like them, using pink cloth strips to tie their hands together.

Ye Hongfu did the same!

She used that pink cloth strip to tie her and Qin Wushang's hands together.

"Senior Sister! What's this rule for?"

Qin Wushang asked curiously.

"For exchange!"

"Later, no matter what the other party says, just let me answer, and don't ask too many questions."

Ye Hongfu reminded him.

The black market was vast, with all sorts of items and activities. She didn't want to be exposed and kicked out.

Qin Wushang was puzzled, continuing forward, seeing rows of rooms, and then seeing men and women entering them.

Passing by, he smelled the scent of mating!

"Holy crap!"

He suddenly reacted and finally understood!

Exchange!

So this was the kind of exchange!

"Senior Sister! What's that sound in these rooms? Why is it so strange?"

"Are there women trapped inside? They sound a bit in pain. Should we save them?"

Qin Wushang had ill intentions, listening to the women's strange cries inside, he quietly asked Ye Hongfu.

Ye Hongfu's face was flushed, listening to those sounds, she just kept quickening her pace.

"Junior Brother! Everyone has their own fate! If she's being beaten, she's being beaten, it has nothing to do with us!"

"We just need to protect ourselves!"

She whispered.

Just then, someone ahead blocked their way.

It was a man and a woman!

The man was middle-aged, and the woman was a beautiful, very seductive, and voluptuous lady.

A stunner!

Qin Wushang glanced and exclaimed inwardly.

"Do the two of you want to exchange?"

The middle-aged man said, his eyes scanning Ye Hongfu, becoming increasingly lewd.

"Little guy, want to play?"

"I'm good at all sorts of things, like flower-arranging and jade-carving, oh!"

The exquisite beauty said, licking the corner of her mouth with her tongue.

She couldn't help but step forward, wanting to caress Qin Wushang's handsome face, but was directly slapped away by Ye Hongfu.

"Scram!"

"You're not worthy of touching my man!"

She said, directly pulling Qin Wushang and rushing past the two, continuing to walk forward.

"Exquisite!"

"Still young! What a pity, she likes pretty boys and doesn't fancy an oily old man like me!"

The middle-aged man lamented.

Here, one couldn't use force, otherwise, people would die!

And Ye Hongfu's strength also deterred him; even a slight leak of her aura made him fearful.

True God Realm, above him!

The two continued forward, and not long after, another man and woman couldn't help but come forward to inquire.

Qin Wushang also had ill intentions!

"Do the two of you want to exchange?"

Qin Wushang suddenly tightened his arm, broke free from the pink cloth strip, and pulled Ye Hongfu into his embrace.

"Exchange? With trash like the one next to you, do you even deserve to exchange women with this Young Master?"

Ye Hongfu was caught off guard, crashing into his solid chest, and her entire body instantly froze in place!

Her ears turned red at a visible speed.

The man and woman, hearing this, quickly lowered their heads and left.

Continuing forward, the same situation occurred no less than twenty times, with each opening line being: "Exchange partners?"

And Qin Wushang also believed he was taking advantage!

Little did he know!

Ye Hongfu's mouth was about to curve up to the sky!

So satisfying!

Junior Brother Qin finally took the initiative himself!

"Is this the black market? What a strange place. It's clearly an underground world, yet it's as bright as day, like a whole new world."

Qin Wushang walked out of the gambling house, looking at the bustling street filled with roadside stalls, and exclaimed.

He looked up and actually saw a blue sky and white clouds!

"This is a Small World! It's no longer the original world!"

"From the moment we passed through those light curtains, we had already left the original world and entered a Small World."

Ye Hongfu said.

She was still holding Qin Wushang's hand, a slight smile unconsciously playing on her lips, seemingly very happy.

"No wonder!"

"I never thought there would be such a place beneath the Imperial City. It's truly surprising."

Qin Wushang nodded.

"We don't need to do this anymore, do we?"

He looked down at their hands and couldn't help but say.

His hand was being held by Ye Hongfu, and occasionally, it would brush against the softness of her chest.

If it weren't for his excellent self-control, he would already be walking with a bent posture.

"Oh, but we definitely still need to! Let's go!"

"Buy whatever you want, but absolutely do not ask others about the origin of their items!"

"If you don't like it, don't buy it, and don't reach out to touch it. Here, items go to the highest bidder!"

Ye Hongfu dragged Qin Wushang and began to stroll, explaining the rules of the place to him.
