Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1629: Chapter 107 “Conquest”! Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom_4

“It’s just that heaven is unpredictable, and a prominent figure from the Demonic Dynasty took a liking to Fire Kid, wanting her to become the pet beast of their excellent offspring. In desperation, the Nine Tails fled with her child to our side but was still tracked down by their pursuers. At the time, she was already injured and knew she couldn’t escape, so she hid her child and went alone to draw away the pursuers, determined to protect her child’s life at all costs. Who would have thought that during this great battle, she was severely injured but was fortunate enough to be saved by me? It was I and the Green Phoenix who joined forces to drive away the pursuers and took the Nine Tails in.”

“But when the Nine Tails woke up and went back to find Fire Kid, the child was already gone… That’s why Nine Tails has been so melancholy over the years, though her spirits have improved somewhat recently.”

As Emperor Xiu recounted this, Wang Lixian understood and nodded with a melancholy expression: “So Chiwei Auntie is actually Nine Tails Auntie’s daughter. How tragic, for such a young mother and daughter to be separated.”

Wang Lixian grew up in an environment of a loving mother and doting father, with a complete family structure and an extremely happy life, and she could not bear to see such tragic situations.

Moreover, she was extraordinarily close to the Firefox Old Ancestor, with a long-standing good relationship. Now seeing the Firefox Old Ancestor reunited with her birth mother, she naturally felt joy for her.

After all, since she could remember, the Firefox Old Ancestor spent more time with the Wang family than with the Yuwen clan.

What followed quite naturally was a touching scene of a mother-daughter reunion.

The Nine Tailed Fox Demon Emperor, overwhelmed with emotion, didn’t bother with anything else and immediately took the Firefox Old Ancestor and Xiaoman back to the cavern.

Their story will be set aside for now.

Let’s talk about the arrival of the envoy and the trade caravan, which was like a massive boulder thrown into the tranquil waters of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, stirring up ripples of activity and excitement.

The enormous caravan brought a vast variety of products—Spirit Rice, meat, clothing, glassware, and so on—all meticulously chosen, with expectations to fetch good prices in the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.

The gathering demon clan surrounded the caravan so tightly that not even a drop of water could get through.

“Chirp-chirp~ chirp-chirp-chirp.” A Level Five Spirit Bird hopped around, declaring, “I want ten sacks of Spirit Rice.”

It didn’t matter that it couldn’t cook; it could peck and eat the rice directly.

“This is Middle Grade Red Crystal Rice,” explained the Wang family member managing sales. “One sack weighs a hundred pounds and is priced at five hundred Qian Gold. Ten sacks total five thousand Qian Gold.”

Qian Gold?

What kind of nonsense was that? This lord always eats by snatching his food!

Confirming that the human selling goods had a lower cultivation base and could be overpowered, the bird didn’t hesitate. It flapped its wings and rushed forward, intending to snatch the goods.

However, just as it made its move, it was slapped away by Cui’er, a Divine Power Territory expert from its own clan.

Are you kidding? Is the Wang family’s stuff that easy to snatch?

Cui’er herself had only ever stolen a few articles of clothing, a misstep that resulted in the Green Phoenix Old Ancestor being detained by the Wang family for seven hundred years. As for you, you insignificant Level Five bird, if you actually made a move, selling you wouldn’t even cover the debts you’d incur.

Many demon kings above Level Nine had all benefited from the Wang family and knew them to be civilized and disciplined individuals. They also understood that the Wang family wasn’t to be trifled with, so they began actively restraining the Fierce Beasts, Fierce Birds, and Spirit Plants within their own clans and started disseminating trade rules.

If you lacked Qian Gold, you could use Spirit Stones to exchange for it. If you didn’t have Spirit Stones, you could trade minerals, herbs, or other valuable items.

For this purpose, the Wang family had specially prepared a trade catalogue detailing the items acceptable for exchange and their relative values.

The Level Five Spirit Bird, which had been slapped, at least had some wits about it. It promptly returned to its nest to rummage for some sparkling Spirit Stone Raw Ore to trade for Spirit Rice.

However, the Wang family member didn’t directly exchange its Spirit Stone Raw Ore for Spirit Rice. Instead, they converted the ore into a generous amount of Qian Gold Notes and loose Qian Gold first.

The Level Five Spirit Bird then used these Qian Gold Notes to purchase ten sacks of Middle Grade Spirit Rice.

After this convoluted process, even those Fierce Beasts with low spiritual intelligence quickly grasped the concept: they could exchange their miscellaneous goods for Qian Gold Notes, then use these notes to buy various materials that appealed to them from the caravan. They rushed back to their homes to collect anything that could be turned into Qian Gold Notes.

Soon, a flood of resources was exchanged for Qian Gold Notes, which ultimately returned to the Wang family.

And what the Wang family provided were simply some goods from the caravan, most of which were staples like grain and meat.

Unknowingly, the demon clan in the Valley of Demons grew increasingly numerous.

The atmosphere at the trade site grew livelier and more fervent.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen our Holy Valley so bustling~” Emperor Xiu watched the scene from afar, nodding in satisfaction. “It seems commerce was indeed the right decision.”

Unfortunately, not every demon clan member had the habit of stockpiling goods.

A considerable number of them had nothing at all, empty-handed and impoverished, now forced to simply drool over the Fierce Beast meat and Spirit Rice.

A Level Six Wolf Demon pleaded bitterly with the Wang family members to lend it some Qian Gold Notes so it could buy a large pile of meat, but the Wang family members raised a sign stating no credit transactions were allowed.

In the end, it was Wang Dinghai who came up with an idea.

This Level Six Wolf Demon had a strong physique, lush fur, and razor-sharp claws; its body itself was full of materials. The tips of its claws could be fashioned into premium arrowheads, and its wolf fur could be shaved off and used for crafting Spirit Pens, High Quality Military Wool Blankets, and so on.

Finally, this Level Six wolf-like Fierce Beast was shaved completely bald, its claws clipped, and it exchanged these for over ten thousand Qian Gold. With this sum, it purchased a pile of Spirit Meat and left joyfully.

Being shaved bald might have been a bit humiliating, but at most, it would take a few years for its fur to grow back. After that, it could trade its fur again. These humans must be fools!
