Chapter 160: Deal Failed
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The young master in embroidered clothes had no desire to buy it and neither did the others. Seeing that the situation was not looking good, he quickly said, “Don’t go, everyone. Everything can be discussed. The Howling Moon Celestial Wolf has a very strong recovery ability. You can take it back as long as you have enough crystals.”
The final price was ten million, but no one was tempted even if the price was reduced by two million. Everyone looked at each other and watched the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf’s dying look.
“He was too ruthless just now. I don’t know how long it will take for it to recover.”
“Even if it can be saved, whether it can be cured or not is a problem. Don’t spend money to buy back a bottomless pit and still have to provide it with all kinds of elixirs to nourish its body.”
“That’s right. Thinking about it, it’s a bit too much of a loss. It won’t be able to recover its strength without at least a year or so. With this free time and energy, I might as well buy a new demonic beast and nurture it well.”
Hearing the discussions of the crowd, Jin Daya instantly became anxious, “How about six million? This is an unprecedented price. I’m losing money on this business. Everyone knows that I am controlled in my attacks. Although it’s injuries look severe, its foundation isn’t hurt. It can definitely recover after recuperating for a while.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood. It could be vaguely seen that pieces of flesh was mixed with blood foam. It seemed like its internal organs were injured. It was clearly in very serious state.
Jin Daya secretly cursed in his heart. As expected, everyone’s expression became even more contemptuous. He hurriedly stuffed a medicinal pill into the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf’s mouth to keep it alive so that it wouldn’t die here.
“In this state, I’m afraid it won’t recover. It needs at least a medicinal pill of the sixth grade or above to treat its injuries.”
Medicinal pills of the sixth grade or above were also extremely precious, especially those used to treat injuries. It was estimated that they could be auctioned off for over a thousand crystals. With so much money, why not buy a better demonic beast. As for saving this ferocious and untamed Howling Moon Celestial Wolf…
Perhaps even if they saved it, it would not remember their kindness. Instead, it would repay kindness with enmity. Looking at the way it bit Jin Daya just now, it was obvious that it would seek revenge for the smallest grievance.
“Forget it, let’s not waste our efforts. I reckon that even if we save it with great difficulty, it will be almost crippled. With this injury, I’m afraid that its foundation is hurt.”
No matter how eloquent Jin Daya was, no one would fall for his words. They weren’t blind, and everyone could see what was going on with the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf.
As a result, no one made a move when the final price was as low as three million. However, there were some people who wanted to take advantage of the situation and see if they could squat down to the lowest price.
Beads of sweat appeared on Jin Daya’s forehead. One had to know that the price of three million included the effort he had put in to catch the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf, the manpower, and the losses he had suffered. He almost wasn’t earning anything. If it was lowered any further, he would have to lose money.
Initially, he thought that he would be able to make a lot of money this time, and the demon beasts he had caught earlier were all sold at a good price. However, who would have thought that something would happen here? If the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was not sold, he would have to pay half of the price.
“This is simply too unlucky!”! “Jin Daya could not contain his anger. Looking at the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf that was beaten half to death beside him, he could not help but throw a tantrum at the people beside him. “What do you think you are all doing? Are you blind? Didn’t you know to stop me just then.”
A few of his subordinates looked at each other, feeling very wronged in their hearts. In that situation just now, they could not stop him even if they wanted to. Moreover, the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was trying to kill Jin Daya and only let go of him after being beaten for a long time.
At this moment, the crowd had mostly dispersed. Lin Bai was still standing at the same spot. For some reason, he felt a sense of compa.s.sion. It was probably because the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was unruly and unyielding. It definitely did not have the temperament to submit to others, it also had the courage and boldness to face death with ease.
“Boss, what should we do now?”
Jin Daya looked at the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf and could not help but fall into a dilemma. It was a pity to abandon it. It was not easy to catch this high-quality demonic beast, and they had paid a huge price. He had thought that he would be able to sell it at a good price. However, the results were hard to accept.
His subordinate suggested from the side, “In any case, it seems that this beast is useless now. It’s better to dissect its demonic core. After all, its skin, fur, and bones are also useful. Although it’s better to sell it alive than dead, it’s still something.
The Howling Moon Celestial Wolf laying on the ground seemed to know that they were discussing how to peel off its skin and bones, and then sell it for a good price. Its icy blue eyes gradually turned gray, as if it could already see its future.
Jin Daya revealed a pained expression. Of course, it was not because of the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf, but because of the money he had spent. “What a waste. What a pity.”
There seemed to be no better way. Just as Jin Daya was about to call his men to carry the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf away when Lin Bai suddenly stood up.
“Wait, I want to buy it.”
Jin Daya was first delighted when he heard someone speak. Then, he turned around and saw that the person who spoke was actually Lin Bai. He instantly revealed an extremely agitated expression.
“I said, don’t cause trouble here, kid. I’m not someone to be trifled with. You’ve already ruined my plans earlier. I haven’t settled the score with you yet.”
He waved his hand like he was waving a fly. No matter how cheap it was, with Lin Bai’s outfit, he wouldn’t be able to afford the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf. Furthermore, Jin Daya didn’t have a good impression towards the person who had caused his injury.
However, Lin Bai took out a small white porcelain bottle. The moment he opened it, people could smell a refres.h.i.+ng smell.
Jin Daya’s disdainful expression suddenly changed. His gaze fell straight on the white porcelain bottle. “What is this!”
Lin Bai indeed did not have that many crystals, but he did have pills.
