The Charm of Soul Pets

41-60

Chapter 41: Commotion in the Auction House

Chu Mu and Chu Ning chatted for a bit before Chu Ning took Chu Yishui off to train her new soul pet. Chu Mu himself simply left the house and went towards Gangluo City’s largest trade fair.

Chu Mu easily found the signal that Ting Yu had left for him, and he found Ting Yu in the VIP room of the trading fair. Ting Yu was just sitting there, patiently waiting for the auction of the Demon Tree’s Heart

“Young master, you’ve returned.” Ting Yu saw Chu Mu walk up and she immediately smiled as she approached to welcome him.

“How have the things been managed?” Chu Mu inquired.

The night he massacred the Yang Clan territorial housing, Chu Mu also conveniently ransacked the entire area for valuables. Because many of the things were easily recognizable as the Yang Clan’s, Chu Mu gave them to Ting Yu to convert it all into liquid assets secretly.

“I’ve sold them all. Young master’s share is 2,000,000 gold coins, with the rest being split to the killers.” Ting Yu said.

“En, good.” Chu Mu nodded satisfactorily.

Robbing the Yang Clan once was enough to earn 2,000,000. Such deals were still pretty exciting to Chu Mu.

“Young master, you have 3,200,000 gold coins in total. The Heavenly Demon Tear you wanted has been concocted already, costing 100,000 coins. The sixth rank bug and beast duo type soul crystal was 250,000 here, costing 50,000 more than in nightmare city. Also, with your order, I bought Ink Gemstone worth 250,000 that can improve your armored soul pet’s defense. After all these expenses, there’s still 2,600,000 gold coins leftover. Currently, I’m auctioning for the Demon Tree’s Heart. It seems that there aren’t many rich and overbearing people in Gangluo City. The price is only 700,000 right now, and currently no one has called higher.” Ting Yu said.

“En, take these two rings with you, sell all the soul pets within it. In the last space of the ring is a soul pet for you. Put it in your own soul capture ring and sign a contract with it once you are strong enough.” Chu Mu then gave two soul capture rings to Ting Yu.

“Can’t sign now? Can it be that young master is gifting me a commander rank soul pet?” Ting Yu’s eyes immediately lit up.

Chu Mu nodded and said, “This hunt, I targeted mostly commander rank soul pets. There are a few warrior ranks, but none were fitting for you.”

The auction continued on. Luxurious wood type strengthening soul item such as Demon Tree’s Heart didn’t seem to have much of a market in Gangluo City. What should be worth nearly one million gold was only worth 700,000 currently.

The Demon Tree Heart’s effects were very obvious. It was able to make a warrior rank soul pet’s plant type strong enough to compare with commander rank soul pets. Such an item was only encounterable by luck and not by demand. Too bad there weren’t that many people in Gangluo City willing to pay such a great sum for a mere warrior rank soul pet. With 1,000,000 gold coins, they would probably rather buy a commander rank wood type soul pet.

“Let’s do 750,000. Even if we have to remove our soul pet contract, it would take at least a year to recover. Let’s buy it still.” Yang Clan Clan Head’s second son Yang Mantian slowly said.
