Chapter 239 - The Opening of the Underground Black Market



Chapter 239: The Opening of the Underground Black Market

He was one of those that had escaped the foreign island first.

Most people called him Jackal as a reference to his cunning nature. He belonged to the Dark Coalition based in the Three Cities. The money on his head was even greater than She-Wolf’s—a whopping amount of two billion.

He was famous for his double-cross act. Working as a loner in Sea City, he would rarely hunt mutated beasts and prefered human targets more.

Qin Feng knew Jackal was the one that killed Liu Ba from Dong Ling.

He did not come alone. His followers were holding at least another five spatial runic equipment.

“I am here to sell. Also, what’s the price of the silver light rune equipment from Savage King that you guys killed today?”

Xue Xingfu was there to greet their first customer personally.

“The silver light rune equipment was obtained in perfect shape. Since we have promised a 10% discount on all items, the item is currently priced at 1.2 billion.”

It was indeed cheaper than in other places. Such an item usually costs around 1.4 billion in the market.

Jackal nodded and handed over his spatial runic equipment. He also passed on several items that were probably valuable but had no use of. It was hard to identify their origin, and it would not be easy to find a suitor.

“Quote these!”

Xue Xingfu scanned the items and estimated the price. “Mister, these are probably worth around 780 million. However, we will be charging a small fee for absorbing the equipment and spatial runic equipment from our customers. I hope you can accept our final offer, which is 700 million.”

Jackal frowned in anger. “What?!”

He took on a tough stance and exuded an explosive aura. The aura of an E-tier ancient warrior was suffocating.

Obviously, Jackal was unsatisfied with the price.

The chubby face of Xue Xingfu twitched slightly. But he stood by his point. “Like it or not, that’s how we do things here. You are at no risk here as we guarantee your payment.”

Jackal was about to threaten the manager again, only to realize he had been locked on by another conscious energy.

It was a horrifying feeling. The conscious energy seemed to have taken control over Jackal’s body in an instant. He could feel the pressure mounting between his brows as if his head would explode if he dare say another word.

Jackal was stupefied.

‘Qin Feng! Must be him!’

Jackal gulped and then gave in reluctantly. “700 million it is.”

He regretted coming here. Fearing that Qin Feng might assault him anytime, he wished to acquire the silver light rune equipment and leave as quickly as possible.

Xue Xingfu wasted no time and asked for the rune equipment to be delivered to the counter while he retrieved Jackal’s merchandise there and accepted another 500 million from him. Jackal had almost emptied all his savings for this equipment.

As compared to the money, this equipment was far more vital to an aptitude user. It could be a life-saver in a desperate situation.

All this while, Qin Feng’s consciousness never left Jackal. The latter was too afraid to do or say anything inappropriate.

“Mister, we have prepared a secret passageway in here that could lead you directly out of town. If you have parked your hovercar inside the colony, we can have someone deliver it to you on the outside as well. This way, you will be able to leave Fengli without being seen. Do you need such a service?” Xue Xingfu asked.

It was torture staying here for even another minute. Jackal nodded without hesitation and passed his car key to Xue Xingfu hastily.

Soon, Jackal boarded the metro. But even when he was inside the train, Qin Feng’s consciousness still haunted him until he left Fengli for good.

“Phew!” Jackal broke out in a cold sweat. “This Qin Feng is scarier than ever.”

‘He has become even stronger than he was before! Or perhaps, he had been concealing his true powers when he was on the island.’

No matter what, Jackal was glad that he did not act out of impulse. Otherwise, he might not have been able to leave Fengli alive.

Other customers arrived continuously after Jackal. They entered the market during the night and were all wearing black robes.

He designed it on the spur-of-the-moment. Xue Xingfu did not expect the customers to have accepted it as the default attire visiting their market. Nevertheless, he could still tell the identity of most customers thanks to their glaring sigils. Yet, he mentioned nothing and tended to them earnestly.

Their business grew steadily with its opening. They took in unwanted items and resold them, while goods that were difficult to handle were secretly channeled to Wanzong Organization. The black market profited 10% through such trades, which was a huge gain considering the massive cash flow.

As this business was operating closely with Wanzong, the organization had dispatched its manager at Chengbei, Sun Yu, to reside at Fengli colony.

The business got on track without much hassle. No one would risk stirring up trouble at Fengli with Qin Feng watching over the entire operation.

The temporary person-in-charge of Sea City was perhaps the only one having an open grudge against Qin Feng now. He did not abide by Lei Chen’s order and would surely be condemned once Lei Chen returned. He would surely teach Qin Feng a lesson.

At the moment, Qin Feng was at the manor on top of the mother mountain. Opposite him in the gym room sat Zhou Hao.

Zhou Hao had only awakened for half a year. His development was by no means slow.

“This is going to hurt a lot. I will knock you out if you can’t stand the pain. However, it would be far less effective this way.”

“Stop babbling and begin already. I will live!” Zhou Hao replied.

Qin Feng nodded and took out a test tube. Inside was the fresh blood of the Drakocroc King.

The blood would only be useful if it were collected fresh. Extracting it from the dead body would not have any strengthening effects. This was the reason Qin Feng did not instantly switch onto other targets then. He stayed close to the slain beast to collect its blood. Even so, he had only managed to gather three tubes.

After returning from the expedition, he did not immediately pass the blood to Zhou Hao but first had him feast on the Drakocroc’s meat for a few days. Today was the first time Zhou Hao would use the blood for training.

A drop of the Drakocroc King’s dragon blood landed on the back of Zhou Hao’s bare skin and fused instantaneously. Zhou Hao groaned but withstood it.

Seeing that he could stand the pain, Qin Feng continued dripping the blood. Eventually, Zhou Hao could not help and began to reel uncontrollably. His eye went bloodshot, and he did not seem to be able to grind through it any further.

“Hold it in!” Qin Feng commanded strictly.

“I’m fine!” Zhou Hao gritted his teeth and sat up straight again.

He did not absorb as much blood as Tyrant had. The amount given to him was tailored according to his power. Zhou Hao endured the pain in the end and crossed his legs to begin meditation.
