Chapter 48

A spirit fruit that is very useful in battle.

The other party took out such a thing, Chen Xuan had no reason not to be tempted.

"This injury should be curable!"

"However, I can't guarantee one hundred percent success!"

Chen Xuan already understood the other party's injury, basically he could guarantee it could be cured.

But he still left himself a way out.

"You guys wait a moment, I'll call Xiaobai out!"

"Everyone eat some fruit first!"

Chen Xuan walked into the backyard with a smile!

Afterward, Bobo brought out some red and green fruits that were dripping with freshness.

"Phew!"

"Great, Grandpa, Brother Chen Xuan said he can heal it!"

In the living room, Liu Liu Qingqing cheered.

"I told you, let's try it!"

Zhu Zhu Yanhua said on the side.

"Got it, look at how excited you are!"

Liu Quan had an indifferent appearance.

But his trembling hands betrayed him.

At that time, when Master Chen said he could heal it.

His heart jumped into his throat.

Instantly dropped down.

He let out a long sigh of relief.

As if all the turbid air from these decades had been exhaled.

"What are you excited about, calm down, eat some fruit first!"

Liu Quan had an old-fashioned appearance.

He took a fruit from the plate.

However, when he just picked it up.

He was stunned!

"Damn it? You call this fruit?"

On that plate, Liu Quan saw that what was placed there was clearly spirit fruit.

And it was Level 3, Level 4 spirit fruit.

Chen Xuan usually ate these discarded spirit fruits as fruit.

So he didn't pay attention for a moment.

"Chen, Master Chen, this old man... could I please take these few spirit fruits with me?"

"I am willing to pay five million Federation credits for each one!"

Not long after!

Liu Quan was already full of high spirits.

In an instant!

That small, white figure.

After emitting a holy radiance!

He felt the injuries left on his body by the Black-Faced Fox decades ago.

The injuries that made him have nightmares every day.

Had actually healed in an instant.

That was a malady that had plagued him for decades.

Subsequently!

After consuming a few spirit fruits.

The beast power within his body was recovering.

It made Liu Quan realize that he was completely healed.

Diamond rank.

He believed that after some recuperation, his beast power would replenish automatically.

He would soon return to his peak state.

There was even the possibility of going further.

After expressing his thanks!

Liu Quan, Liu Liu Qingqing, and the third person prepared to leave.

Before leaving.

Liu Quan looked somewhat embarrassed, yet he stared longingly at the remaining spirit fruits on the plate.

Now that his injuries were healed, he urgently needed spirit fruits to recover.

Chen Xuan happened to have them here, and the price of five million was in line with the market rate.

Of course, in the market, spirit fruits of this grade were basically priceless and unavailable.

"Ugh!"

To the side, Liu Liu Qingqing covered her forehead and turned away, unable to bear looking.

She acted as if she didn't know Liu Quan.

Even Zhu Zhu Yanhua was stunned in astonishment.

"No problem, take them all back, just at the price you mentioned!"

"If you need more, I have some in stock, though the price cannot be lowered!"

Seeing Liu Quan's appearance.

Chen Xuan smiled and said to Bobo on the side.

These were all third and fourth-grade spirit fruits.

They were already spirit fruits that Chen Xuan had phased out.

His phantom beasts were now starting to consume fifth or even sixth-grade spirit fruits.

These discarded spirit fruits were treated as snacks.

However, one cannot get something for nothing, so Chen Xuan naturally still needed to charge some fees.

Moreover, although he was self-sufficient here, he might need money one day.

Better to save it up first.

"Th-thank you, Master Chen!"

Liu Quan's voice began to tremble.

Fourth and fifth-grade spirit fruits.

Each one was worth millions.

Or even tens of millions.

It was naturally very easy for Liu Quan to come up with this price.

But!

The difficulty with these spirit fruits and herbs was not their price.

It was their rarity.

In the market, as long as a spirit fruit or herb above the third grade appeared.

It would be snatched up instantly.

After all, these were items that could accelerate the growth of phantom beasts and allow them to break through their levels.

The higher the grade of the spirit herb, the more obvious the effect.

And in the wild, encountering a fourth-grade spirit herb or fruit would often trigger a scramble. ===== CHAPTER 147 =====

Because they were simply too rare.

Those in the wild were either not yet mature.

Or, if they were mature, they had long been eyed by some powerful phantom beasts.

"Grandpa, why must you call him Brother Chen Xuan, Master Chen?"

"Calling him 'Master Chen, Master Chen' is too strange!"

Halfway there!

Liu Liu Qingqing couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"Nonsense, that is a Diamond-rank Beastmaster!"

"And he is kind-hearted, a Beastmaster skilled in healing, an existence like Master Wen Wen Yuning."

"If he isn't a master, then what is he?"

Liu Quan said sternly.

"Diamond rank?"

"What!"

"He is actually Diamond rank?"

Even though they had felt a trace of pressure from Chen Xuan.

And guessed that Chen Xuan's rank was higher than their own.

Liu Liu Qingqing and Zhu Zhu Yanhua had not expected that Chen Xuan had actually reached the Diamond rank.

A Diamond-rank Beastmaster!

That was a top-tier existence even in the Federation.

In their academy, only those genius seniors who had stayed for eight or ten years possessed the ability to reach this rank.

Yet Chen Xuan's age looked to be about the same as theirs.

"I am truly grateful to Master Chen this time!"

"Although I gave up a Golden Willow Flower seed, I still feel a bit sorry for Master Chen!"

"However, we cannot just take what others say at face value; Master Chen may not care!"

"But we can bring some benefits to these villagers!"

Liu Quan said sternly.

Subsequently!

They headed in the direction of Ancient Boat City.

Liu Quan swore he would definitely repay Master Chen Xuan well.

In Jiangyuan City!

Yuanlang District.

This was just one of the subdivisions of Jiangyuan City.

Once!

It had a permanent population of over one million.

But!

Now!

This district was like a dead zone.

One million people!

A week ago.

They were still living here, alive and well.

At this moment!

Many buildings still had their lights on.

But!

There was not a single living creature inside.

The machines were still running.

But there was not a single biological person.

Thump, thump!

Heavy footsteps trod on the roof.

An aged figure appeared.

Behind him followed a humanoid creature, though its body seemed to be made of machinery.

It was a strange creature with a head like a cat.

A phantom beast!

Hunting Queen.

A Platinum fifth-tier phantom beast.

This was Kong Sheng's phantom beast.

"Old Fang, what do you think!"

"We've been investigating for days, and there's no news at all!"

"Moreover, these past few days, the disappearance of these humans has been too eerie!"

Kong Sheng looked toward Fang De beside him.

Similarly, behind Fang De followed a massive phantom beast.

It was a giant spider with six eyes.

Six-Eyed Wolf Spider!

A type of phantom beast that naturally grows to Platinum rank upon reaching adulthood.

Fang De had cultivated it to the Platinum sixth-tier, which was already considered powerful.

Three days ago.

They had investigated Yuanlang District.

They started by investigating Jinhua Street.

That was the place where people first started disappearing.

But!

After an investigation.

They found nothing.

No traces of fighting.

Nor any aura emitted by phantom beasts.

As Platinum-rank Beastmasters.

If a phantom beast appeared nearby, it would absolutely not escape their perception.

Yet, while they were investigating Jinhua Street.

The entire Yuanlang District.

Had actually fallen into crisis.

It started with the disappearance of tens of thousands.

Then that number doubled within a day.

The disappearance of over a hundred thousand people.

Then the disappearance of hundreds of thousands.

And today!

The entire Yuanlang District.

With a population of one million, was already completely empty.

And Kong Sheng and Fang De, who were in Yuanlang District.

Had not discovered any traces.

They only heard some terrifying screams. ===== CHAPTER 148 =====
