Earthly Deity Chapter 36

As soon as the price of two thousand gold coins came out, the fat meat on the obese merchant’s face shook fiercely. He hated to slap himself a few times at this moment, why didn’t he call for a deal later?

No, absolutely can’t let this one thousand gold coins slip away, thinking of this, he hurriedly called out in a loud voice, “Someone has bid two thousand gold coins, is there any higher than this ……”

Before this sentence was finished, he felt some coldness in his neck. He subconsciously lowered his head and saw a white shaking sharp knife resting on his neck.

“You …… you hurry up and let go …… This is the gathering point of the Leaping Immortal Sect Assembly, you dare to commit murder?” The fat merchant stumbled over his words in the first half of his sentence, but later, he seemed to have figured out that Mo Wuji didn’t dare to make a move, and his speech became a lot more fluent.

The one who had a knife on the fat merchant’s neck was none other than Mo Wuji, seeing Mo Wuji move his knife, numerous people looked at him in astonishment. Just as the fat merchant said, to dare to move the knife here, that would be the old lifer hanging himself, disliking the fact that he had lived too long.

Mo Wuji heatedly smiled, ”Fatty, you have just agreed to my price, which means that the verbal contract between us has become finalised. At this time, neither you nor I can back out. As you know, this is a gathering point for the Leaping Immortal Sect Assembly. If the Immortal Master knows that you dare to do black business here, go back on your word, and do not put the rules set down by the Immortal Master in your eyes, and that you are spreading wildness in this place, the gathering point of the Leaping Immortal Sect Assembly, and unilaterally tearing up the verbal contract, do you know what will happen?”

Mo Wuji purposely paused for a moment and laughed coldly a few more times, “I’m afraid that if you earn money, you won’t have the life to spend it. I’m not too busy to kill you, I just need to report to the Lord Immortal Master here.”

After saying that, Mo Wuji really put away the sharp knife and looked at the obese merchant with a disdainful face.

Cold sweat came down on the obese merchant’s face, if Mo Wuji didn’t pursue the matter, he would be fine. But a guy who dared to bid 1,000 gold coins for a slave girl, how could he not pursue after suffering such a loss? He only saw the gold coins just now and forgot about the danger.

If he wanted to cheat, it definitely wouldn’t work, so many people saw and heard him, if he cheated, he would just die a quicker death.

“Oh, I’m sorry to go, just now is my mistake. I saw the money in my eyes, and even forgot that I had already reached an agreement with you.” A pleasing smile appeared on the fatty’s face as he handed Mo Wuji the chain that held the woman and a key. Compared to a thousand gold coins, a small life was more important.

Mo Wuji grunted and directly opened the chain, throwing away the key and chain. At the same time, he took out one thousand and one gold coins and one copper coin from his pocket and threw them to the fat merchant.

If it wasn’t for the sake of saving this young girl who might be from his own family, he ironically wouldn’t have been so nice. Even if he were to purchase it, he would only give fifty to a hundred gold coins at most.

However, Mo Wuji did not care, after seeing this fat man hawking the woman of the Northern Qin County King’s family, he had no intention of letting this fat man go.

The folding fan man’s face was gloomy, but he didn’t dare to provoke all the rules and systems of the Leaping Immortal Sect Assembly, so he could only watch as Mo Wuji led the young girl away from the fat merchant.

The fat merchant hurriedly said to the man with the folded fan in a humble and pleasing manner, “This gentleman, there is a better one on my side, not only is number thirty one beautiful, she is also proficient in all kinds of music and rhythm, when it comes to serving people, number thirty one is the best …… in my place.”

“Really? Fatty you still have a better one but you didn’t even call it out earlier, then I’ll take No.31 as well, I’ll bid 1,000 gold coins.” Mo Wuji didn’t even wait for the man with the folding fan to speak before he said in a loud voice.

The man with the folded fan had just been hit in the face by Mo Wuji and had long been furious at losing face. The reason why he didn’t lash out until now was purely because he was afraid of the rules of the Leaping Immortal Sect Assembly. Now that a thirty one had come out and Mo Wuji had lost his face, how could he miss again? He just couldn’t believe that even a houseboy could compete with him for money?

“Two thousand gold coins.” The man with the folding fan stared at Mo Wuji with a disdainful gaze, and his bidding voice carried some arrogance.

The obese merchant was stunned, he hadn’t even called out number thirty-one yet, and these two guys started bidding. He was then pleasantly surprised, this was still going to make him a fortune.

“Three thousand gold coins.” Mo Wuji called out carelessly.

“Five thousand.”

“Six thousand. ……”

“Ten thousand gold coins!” The folding fan man’s blood surged hotly, a tiny mole house servant dared to be so arrogant.

Mo Wuji saw a slightly older man and whispered a few words in the folding fan man’s ear, the hot blood on the folding fan man’s face receded a bit and his eyes calmed down from the madness.

“Not bad, really a rich lord, I can’t really take out so much money.” After saying that, Mo Wuji pulled the young girl he bought and said to the completely stunned Ding Bu Er, “Bu Er, let’s go.”

By this point in time, how could the man with the folded fan not know that Mo Wuji was punking him. He was so angry that his veins were showing on his forehead, he couldn’t wait to order someone to arrest Mo Wuji and thin his skin immediately. Unfortunately, this was not his monarchy and he simply did not have the guts to do so.

“Jia Jing, pay up.” This folding fan man grunted, not even in the mood to look at what that thirty-one girl looked like, he turned around and left.

The one who was most pleased with himself was that obese merchant, with just these two slave girls today, he had earned a year or two of profit.

……

“Wuji, that fat guy isn’t a good thing either, even though you screwed that annoying guy, you cheaped out on the fat guy.” Ding Bu Er said as he followed Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji laughed, “Cheap him? Oh, let’s go back and talk about it.”

Daring to sell the Mo Family’s people as female slaves, Mo Wuji had long since seen this fatty as a dead man. The reason why he dared to offer a high price was because he wasn’t afraid to actually pay up.

“I’ll go check on Big Brother Zhen Yi and Eleven Niang and the others, you go back first.” Ding Bu Er knew that Mo Wuji had something to say to this Mo Clan’s young girl and took the initiative to avoid it.

Mo Wuji brought this young girl inside the tent and pulled it up.

The young girl stared at Mo Wuji with a wary face, in her opinion, Mo Wuji and the man with the folding fan, as well as the obese merchant were all in the same category, they were all in the same category of people that disgusted her.

“What’s your name?” Mo Wuji didn’t care about this young girl’s vigilance and asked after sitting down.

“Mo Xiangtong.” After the young girl said her name, she still pursed her lips and looked at Mo Wuji vigilantly.

“What do you call Mo Tiancheng, the County King of the Northern Qin County Kingdom?” Mo Wuji asked again.

Mo Xiangtong was not surprised, all of them knew that she came from the Northern Qin County Kingdom, “The County King of Tiancheng is considered to be my elder uncle, my father and the County King of Tiancheng are considered to be cousins.”

Mo Wuji stared at Mo Xiangtong with some surprise, after half a day, this Mo Xiangtong was actually a generation older than him. According to reason, he should call Mo Xiangtong aunt.

“My name is Mo Wuji, Mo Tiancheng is considered my grandfather. So you understand why I saved you.” Mo Wuji felt some emotions in his heart and then explained.

When Mo Xiangtong heard Mo Wuji’s words, she even acted more shocked than Mo Wuji. She froze for a while before she asked with uncertainty, “You are His Highness the Little County King ……”

Mo Wuji laughed bitterly, “What Little County King, I’m probably the only one left in the County King’s direct line, the North Qin County King has long since ceased to belong to our Mo Family.”

Mo Xiangtong’s entire body trembled, her eyes reddened and tears gushed out.
