Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 2352 Chancing Upon

”Giant Butterfly-Winged Ocelot, costing a hundred immortal crystals, it is not bad for- ”

”Golden Maw Wolf, costing a hundred and ten immortal crystals, its razor-sharp golden tooth will leave the- ”

”Crimson Flame Bear-”

Davis saw many types of magical beasts, feasting upon their fantastic features with his own eyes while having his horizons widened. If this was not a slave house, he knew for a fact that it would be a magical beast zoo. However, he couldnʼt help but doubt one thing as he conveyed it to Yufor.

”Slaves kept in the cells are sometimes bigger than they appear.”

Yufor uttered, causing Davis to glance at the two-meter-tall Crimson Flame Bear. However, there was no way it could only be two meters in height as he was aware that even its infants were ten meters tall. As for the mature Crimson Flame Bear, they were as tall as ninety meters!

But unlike Nadia, who was an immortal beast and could alter her size, these were mortal beasts! There was no way they could change their size as they pleased, so the only possible way he could think of was…

”Is this the work of a spatial formation?” Davis asked.

”Indeed. The magical beast cells are imbued with spatial formations but still, the maintenance cost to keep all our slaves in a healthy condition is extremely high.” Yufor nodded.

Davis perfunctorily chuckled, finding it a bit funny to be gazing at a two-meter tall bear that was looking menacingly at him. Obviously, it didnʼt like him for some reason.

He no longer paid heed to it and continued on.

Surprisingly, Davis even saw a Burning Phoenix in the fire attribute block.

He was just about to pass by it when he suddenly stopped.

”To think that the Azure Radiance Slave Traders can even enslave a Burning Phoenix, a mixed offspring of the Fire Phoenix and the Vermilion Bird.”

Yufor blinked before he reacted, ”Ah, we usually canʼt enslave a Burning Phoenix in the Fire Phoenix Clanʼs Prefectures, but I heard that this mortal beast is different as I heard that it appeared from the Fifty-Two Territories, a mortal lower realm, so we can authorize its transaction without a problem.”

”To acquire a Burning Phoenix as a slave is an opportunity that couldnʼt be easily lost. I wonder what are its crimes?”

”Let me check it for you, patron.”

Yuforʼs eyes brightened as he walked to the cell and abruptly took out a status plate in his grasp. Reacting to it, the enclosure sealing the slave brightened and displayed some information in the air.

It was a projection.

It had all the details about the Burning Phoenix that was kept inside but looking at the information, Davisʼs pupils almost dilated in stupefaction.

This Burning Phoenixʼs father tried to court one of the many daughters of the City Lord and actually had the gall to spike her food when in a celebratory event but failed? Therefore, his entire family was captured and sold off to the Azure Radiance Slave Traders in bulk for his vile crime?

And by the City Lord, did it mean the dead City Lord of this city?

Davis suddenly had the vigor to drop his fake character, throw his head up, and laugh out loud.

After all, he felt like he obtained a suitable gift for Ancestor Corneliaʼs breakthrough into immortality.

”Seems like we have an approval from the City Lord to engage in a transaction involving a Burning Phoenix, although such a grand character ended up being killed by a core disciple from the Aurora Cloud Gate is unfortunate… truly depressing...”

Despite these words, Yuforʼs expression seemed like he was not lamenting at all as he smiled, ”Shall I make up the slave contract? This Burning Phoenix costs almost the same as that Roving Breeze Skylark we had previously seen, around five hundred and fifty immortal crystals.”

”No,” Davis shook his head, ”I donʼt want to deal with raising this mortal Burning Phoenix. Instead, Iʼd like to purchase its father or mother immortal beast, preferably the father. Is that possible?”

Yuforʼs eyes brightened, ”Oh, patron wants to acquire a male Immortal Burning Phoenix thatʼs on the second floor? I think it was considered a battle slave due to its prowess being one level higher, not to mention that itʼs at Level Seven Immortal Beast Stage, so itʼs better to assume that it would be expensive. If you want the mother and the others in their family, I imagine that theyʼre here or in the immortal pathways of this first floor.”

”No need. I donʼt have much wealth to spare in my spatial ring, but I can gather some uncollected funds soon, so Iʼd like to reserve that male immortal Burning Phoenix.”

Yufor explained that there was interest added to the act of reservation, but Davis said that he didnʼt mind. However, Yufor also explained that walking around with Burning Phoenix slaves in the Fire Phoenix Prefecture wasnʼt a good idea.

After all, the Burning Phoenix, although mocked, was still considered a descendant of the Fire Phoenix. Parading a Burning Phoenix like it was a slave in their own territory was akin to mocking them.

”Thatʼs fine. I wonʼt be staying in the Southwest Fire Phoenix Prefecture for long.”

”Thatʼs good. We, the Azure Radiance Slave Traders, never wish misfortune to befall on our patrons.” Yufor heaved a sigh of relief, appearing concerned.

”To safeguard you, the masterʼs life against a Level Seven Immortal Beast slave, weʼll also forcefully lower its cultivation to Level One Immortal Beast Stage so that when you, the master, reach the immortal realm, its full prowess can be released. It can also be killed with a single thought if it poses any threat to your precious life throughout all its life, so I am confident in my ability to say that such an immortal beast wouldnʼt pose any danger as long as the master is awake.”

”Aha, thatʼs my own burden.” Davis produced a rare chuckle with his fake persona, seemingly disdaining that kind of talk.

This told Yufor that this patron he had was some kind of wealthy individual from an unknown power, a power that could afford to keep a Level Seven Immortal Beast, a Burning Phoenix at that, on a leash.

Quickly, they then continued on before Davis finally made it to the earth-attribute block, where Davis actually found what he was looking for.

Looking from the other side of the glass panel, there was a quadrupedal magical beast that was two meters long in length and proportionally taller. It had the face and the copper-colored mane of a lion. Its body seemed to be armored in bronze-crimson scales, and its tail also had a unique look to it, appearing to be in segments, although the entire tail was slumped at the moment.

”What a good mount.” Davisʼs voice raised an octave, ”I want this Rumbling Earthtail Lion as I heard that it has Earth Dragonʼs blood in its blood.”

”Patronʼs eyes are akin to that of a treasure hunterʼs. However, I would like to remind our patron that this female Rumbling Earthtail Lion has lost its two fangs and lost its hard-hitting tail as its tailbone had been crushed. Would our patron still want it?”
