After exchanging beast mates, those crazy S-rank beasts are all vying to be my pets.

Chapter 109 He Zi Causes Trouble
Bai Mingchen's office is on the second floor of the black market. It's the only room on the second floor, a large, single-level room with three balconies.

Sang Tian chose the nearest balcony.

From the balcony, she could overlook the entire black market, and she was surprised to find that the black market wasn't actually that big.

Sang Tian looked down at the scene below. He Zi stood in the middle, holding a long chain in her hand. The other end of the chain was connected to a wounded orc.

One of the orc's antlers on his forehead had been cut off, and blood was flowing freely, sliding down from his forehead to his chin, making him look ferocious.

The orc standing in front of He Zi was two meters tall and had a strong build, blocking her way with a spiked club in both hands.

"You promised 150,000 spirit crystals, but you only gave 30,000 and want to take the person away? Either make up the difference or release the person!"

He Zi looked disdainful. "This deer is missing an antler, and you still dare to ask for 150,000? Do you believe I'll smash your shop right now?"

The black market is well-informed. Everyone knows that He Zi was in such a hurry to buy beastmen because she lost two beastmen husbands on Snowfall Island.

The final score is calculated by adding the number of female players and the total score of the competition.

Sang Tian was puzzled. She looked through the previous years' qualifying rounds and found that He Zi had only won first place once. After that, she had not participated in any qualifying rounds, which might be related to her being demoted to the Desert Continent.

"Even if I'm missing an antler, you can't just deduct 120,000 spirit crystals from me all at once! How about 50,000 for one antler?"

The bull-beastman stubbornly argued with He Zi, determined to get the spirit crystal back.

"Fifty thousand for a single deer antler?" He Zi seemed to be inspired by his words and drew the dagger from her waist.

Her movements were swift and clean, and the orc's other antler fell to the ground.

"Ah—" The deer-man collapsed to the ground in agony, bearing alone the double pain of having its antlers cut off and the thought of living with He Zi in the future.

The onlookers all took a half step back, astonished by He Zi's actions.
The bull-beastman's face turned extremely ugly upon seeing this, his face so black it could drip ink.

"Now your orcs can only be sold for 20,000. I gave you 30,000, so are you going to give me back 10,000?"

He Zi's smile was sinister, and the dagger in her hand was still dripping blood.

The bull-beastman stared at her.

"Consider the remaining ten thousand as a reward; you don't need to return it." He Zi tightened the chain and forcibly pulled the deer-man up from the ground. "Let's go home."

At this moment, the deer-man's face was covered in blood, and its eyes were also stained with blood. Its eyes were filled with hatred for He Zi.

He Zi was already used to her beastman looking at her like that. She squatted down and looked at the defiant deer-man, "Are you throwing a tantrum at me?"

The deer-man remained silent, his eyes fixed intently on He Zi.

"That's good. I hope you can throw tantrums at me like this in the future, instead of being like them, like a dead person who doesn't fight back when they're hit or scolded."

He Zi's sadistic desires surged up again, and she couldn't wait to leave with the people.

Sang Tian watched her leave, the road stained with the blood of the deer people.

"It's over so quickly?" Bai Mingchen's voice came from behind.

Sang Tian turned to look at him, "Mm."

"Quan Jingtian revealed that this is the second orc He Zi bought on the black market. She came once last night and is said to come again tomorrow because there will be a new orc tomorrow."

"Is her goal in recruiting so many orcs to get first place in the qualifying rounds?"

"Most likely."

Sang Tian pondered, "Why do I get the feeling that she seems to value this qualifying round exceptionally?"

"No one knows why she returned from the Desert Continent. Perhaps winning first place in the qualifying rounds was an opportunity given to her by Xingduan?"

“It’s not impossible, but I can’t let her have her way. If she does, our future will be very difficult.”

Bai Mingchen respected her choice. "Even if you get first place, there's nothing to be afraid of. We can go back to Jiao Island and live there. She can't get through it."

Sky Island was originally called Jiao Island.

"You've already found a way out before it even starts?" Sang Tian joked with a smile, then, thinking of the dejected Quan Jingtian in the office, she raised her chin. "What exactly happened to Quan Jingtian?"

"That female wouldn't leave him alone last time. She divorced several of her other beast husbands for him, and now she's blocking him at the shop every day." A hint of surprise flashed in Sang Tian's eyes. "All divorced?"

"Ah."

A pang of jealousy welled up inside Bai Mingchen, and he said sourly, "So it turns out there really are females who can be monogamous."

Oh no, this wave is coming for her.

Sang Tian sensed something was wrong and quickly changed the subject, "Wu Yanghao has something to discuss with me, I'll go down and find him first."

Bai Mingchen felt helpless as he watched people avoid the topic.

Do you know where they are?

Sang Tian entered the room, saying, "Why don't we just ask Quan Jingtian?"

Through Quan Jingtian, Sang Tian successfully found Wu Yanghao.

"Boss, you're finally here! Something's happened to Fengqi again!"

Wu Yanghao called her "boss" with perfect fluency, and when he saw Sang Tian, ​​he clung to her arm tightly as if she were his lifeline.

"Let go." Bai Mingchen frowned, his gaze intense.

Sang Tian frowned. Why was it this unlucky guy again? Was he some kind of fully automatic troublemaker?

Wu Yanghao quickly let go. "Feng Qi has been targeted by the female demon He Zi. She wants Feng Qi to be her beast husband. Boss, what should we do?"

Sang Tian hadn't seen Feng Qi for so long that she had almost forgotten what he looked like.

"Why weren't you chosen?"

Her words were devastating.

"I don't know either. My brother and I just want to run our shop and earn spirit crystals. We don't want to compete for favor with females."

Sang Tian: "..."

There's no need to be so harsh with your words; that would easily give Bai Mingchen room to maneuver.

She barely managed to calm the man's dangerous thoughts.

"Let's not talk about these trivial things. Where is Feng Qi now?" Sang Tian looked around but didn't find anyone.

"He was taken away by He Zi."

For some reason, Sang Tian could only think of scenes of landlords forcibly abducting women. How could such a scene be playing out on the black market?
Wu Yanghao explained the whole story clearly.

Yesterday, Feng Qi went to the orc trading post to deliver something to Boss Niu, but Boss Niu wasn't there. He Zi mistakenly thought Feng Qi was an orc for sale, so she gave him 50,000 spirit crystals without saying a word and took him away.

After listening, Sang Tian's expression turned serious.

Just as she was about to speak, Wu Yanghao thought there was a way to save her.

"The Bee-Starter is actually 20,000 spirit crystals more expensive than that deer-man from before."

These words left Wu Yanghao speechless, his face looking like he was about to cry. "Boss, this isn't about whether it's expensive or not. How are we supposed to get this person back?"

Sang Tian was having a headache. The shop hadn't even opened yet, and these two were already always causing trouble.

“Beeqi doesn’t have cloud access, so I can’t check his marriage status.”

Sang Tian asked Bai Mingchen, "Is the black market not involved in this matter?"

“This has never happened before. Quan Jingtian was not forcibly taken away. Rogues like He Zi are a minority.”

"..." Wu Yanghao looked at Bai Mingchen, hesitant to speak, but finally gritted his teeth and mustered his courage to ask, "Boss, Feng Qi is also a member of the black market, can you think of a way?"

"A gang leader?"
