Chapter 2625: Strutting Through the Market
Xiao Ran couldn't help but urge Ye Liuyun again: "Master, this way we'll attract many attacks! Especially the Beast Race and Demon Race will think you're deliberately humiliating them!"
Ye Liuyun just smiled: "Hmm, that's intentional; that's the effect I want! Let's go!"
Saying that, Ye Liuyun led these "followers" into the trade planet.
Xiao Ran could only follow Ye Liuyun with a mournful face, hoping he could handle everything.
At the same time his eyes and Divine Sense began scanning anxiously, guarding against attacks.
The layout of the trade planet was already visible to Ye Liuyun from far away.
It truly resembled a market; everyone set up stalls at will.
Yet everyone kept a certain distance, and the stalls varied in size.
A pile of ore belonging to the Giant Demon Tribe occupied a large space.
But many large clans had numerous experts guarding their stalls, so the goods were abundant and the stalls equally large.
Some individual Martial Cultivators also gathered around these big stalls, selling goods and paying protection fees to the big powers.
These Martial Cultivators were all at Zhuanzai Sanchong, and could guarantee that even if they couldn't defeat others they could still get away.
So the whole big market was a gathering of groups of vendors selling goods.
Yet they hadn't occupied the entire planet, only a large portion of it.
Ye Liuyun counted roughly twenty‑plus larger vendor groups, meaning that around this planet there were over twenty clans, most of which were human clans.
Everyone's goods were displayed openly for selection.
Prices were clearly marked, no need to haggle; just pay the listed price.
Only when an item needed to be exchanged would one negotiate with the stall owner.
Ye Liuyun scanned casually and saw many good items.
"First go to the stall where your clan is."
Ye Liuyun used a Slave Seal to control the red‑haired lion and descended toward the Beast Race's stall.
The Beast Race sold mostly beast meat, hides, ferocious beast Golden Cores, and some special bones.
Blood Dragon Fruit was, of course, very popular and sold in piles, along with many special medicinal herbs.
Ye Liuyun's party hadn't even arrived yet, but they had already drawn people's attention, sparking discussion.
Ye Liuyun was unfazed, patting the red‑haired lion and adopting a smug, unbothered look.
"Roar, roar…" low growls cracked around, clearly expressing displeasure and threat.
Many beasts couldn't understand why a red‑haired lion was being used as a human mount.
Some clever beasts guessed that the red‑haired lion was being controlled by Ye Liuyun.
But since Ye Liuyun could control the red‑haired lion, they treated him very cautiously.
"Say what you will, if you disagree come challenge me one‑on‑one!"
Ye Liuyun brazenly shouted.
Some hot‑tempered beasts immediately leapt out, lunging at Ye Liuyun.
"Only five came out!"
Ye Liuyun pursed his lips in displeasure, thinking the number was small, and these five beasts were only at Zhuanzai Erchong.
He didn't even need to use Time Power; he instantly placed Slave Seals on them.
Placing Slave Seals on beasts and Demon Race members is far easier than on humans.
Their protection awareness of the Sea of Consciousness is relatively weak.
With that, all the beasts saw clearly that Ye Liuyun had launched a Spiritual Soul Attack.
That also confirmed that the red‑haired lion was controlled by Ye Liuyun.
The Beast King in charge of this stall let out a great roar, and all the beasts released their pressure toward Ye Liuyun.
Beasts are more united than humans and certainly wouldn't watch their Beast King be taken as a mount by Ye Liuyun.
The roars also drew surrounding beasts, the numbers swelling.
Ye Liuyun used Divine Sense to count them, roughly two hundred heads, and he was quite satisfied with the number.
The Martial Cultivators who had been browsing the market immediately dispersed to the sides to avoid being caught up.
A small group of Giant Demon Tribe members, who had been puzzled why two of their people were still behind Ye Liuyun, …
…but now the Beast Race was about to act, they couldn't ask and could only hide aside and observe.
At this moment Ye Liuyun also released a clone.
He feared his own Time Power alone was insufficient to handle so many beasts, so the clone would have to take turns.
A Zhuanzai Sanchong Iron Ox and a blue‑furred hunting fox were the first to attack Ye Liuyun, while other beasts surrounded his party.
The Iron Ox charged straight at Ye Liuyun.
Its hard body could not be knocked aside even by the red‑haired lion Ye Liuyun drove.
The blue‑furred hunting fox launched a Spiritual Soul Attack on Ye Liuyun.
When Ye Liuyun initiated the Spiritual Soul Attack, the fox saw that Ye Liuyun's Divine Soul Power was weaker than its own.
Unfortunately, after it entered Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness, it didn't need Ye Liuyun to act; it was immediately enveloped by the Golden Light of the Ten Thousand Gods Command.
After Ye Liuyun placed a Slave Seal on its Soul, he immediately had it attack the Iron Ox.
Its Soul, together with the hunting fox's, rushed into the Iron Ox's Sea of Consciousness.
The Iron Ox's Divine Soul Power was not weak, but it was no match for that hunting fox.
It was quickly suppressed, and a Slave Seal was placed on it by Ye Liuyun.
"So smooth! Didn't even need Time Power!"
Ye Liuyun hadn't expected it to be this smooth, yet he captured two more Zhuanzai Sanchong beasts.
But the Iron Ox couldn't stop for a moment and still rushed toward the red‑haired lion at Ye Liuyun's side.
Ye Liuyun controlled the lion to leap, letting it pass the Iron Ox.
Afterwards the Iron Ox immediately stood behind Ye Liuyun and ceased its attack.
At that moment the hunting fox also came over and stood behind Ye Liuyun.
This scene shocked the surrounding ferocious beasts and the Martial Cultivators watching the spectacle.
"He's a Soul Cultivator! His Divine Soul Power is even stronger than the hunting fox's!"
People all thought Ye Liuyun's strong point was Divine Soul Power.
After the ferocious beasts let out a few roars, they unified their intent and surged toward Ye Liuyun together, intending to attack him en masse.
Now Ye Liuyun has controlled three Zhuanzai Sanchong Third Layer Realm beasts; if they don't all strike together, they fear they won't be able to defeat Ye Liuyun.
Unexpectedly, Ye Liuyun and his clone took turns using Time Power, planting a Slave Seal on each of them one by one.
After a round of time freeze by the two of them, they controlled more than fifty ferocious beasts.
Then Ye Liuyun had the red‑haired lion, the hunting fox, and the Iron Ox exert pressure on the other beasts, preventing them from daring to attack.
"All go back and honestly do business!"
Ye Liuyun smiled as he instructed them.
The beasts that Ye Liuyun had just controlled naturally obeyed and returned to their own stalls, but the beasts he hadn't controlled were somewhat at a loss.
They both wanted to rescue those three strong ones and feared they couldn't defeat them.
Some beasts even called back the recalled beasts to continue fighting Ye Liuyun and his allies.
