The Legend of the Demon Hunter

As the saying goes, there is no businessman without fraud. Everyone knew very well that the fat businessman's words were probably not credible, but his story was really wonderful. The onlookers listened to his story with gusto and just for fun, but no one went to inquire about the price.

Hearing this, Xiao Zhu lost interest. He was about to pull Xia Shi away, but he saw Xia Shi looking at the pair of bells with shining eyes. She pulled Xiao Zhu's arm and said, "Brother, I want this pair of love bells."

Hearing Xia Shi's words, Xiao Zhu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he always responded to Xia Shi's requests, let alone a pair of bells, so he squeezed to the front of the crowd and asked the fat merchant, "Boss, how much is this pair of love bells?"

The fat merchant was talking nonstop when he suddenly heard someone asking for the price. He stopped talking instantly as if he had slammed on the brakes, turned his head to look at Xiao Zhu, squeezed out a warm smile on his fat face, and said loudly: "Hey! My dear, you have a good eye. I see you want to buy it for this beautiful girl next to you, right? Tsk tsk tsk tsk, a treasure for a beauty, this is really a perfect match. For the sake of this beauty, I'll sell this pair of Acacia Bells to you for 5,000 silver coins!"

The fat merchant's words attracted everyone's attention to Xiao Zhu and Xia Shi. Everyone knew that this unscrupulous merchant regarded Xiao Zhu and Xia Shi as fat sheep to be slaughtered. Five thousand silver coins in Sanbianzhou were enough to buy a top-quality magic weapon. Who would be foolish enough to buy a pair of things of unknown origin and no practical use? However, everyone showed an attitude of watching the fun on their faces, and no one stepped forward to stop him.

Xiao Zhu touched the storage bracelet. In the past five years, he followed Master Fan Yin to practice and seldom dealt with the secular world, so he did not carry so many coins on him. However, he stored a lot of Warcraft crystal cores, which were obtained from the Warcraft hunting training arranged for him by Master Fan Yin.

He glanced at the fat businessman and asked, "I don't have enough coins. Can I exchange them for Warcraft cores?"

The fat merchant looked at Xiao Zhu in surprise. He was not a demon hunter, so he naturally could not sense other people's cultivation. He did not expect that this young man had the ability to hunt demons, so he answered readily: "Of course, a level one demon core is 20 silver coins, a level two demon core is 200 silver coins, and a level three demon core is 800 silver coins. How many demon cores do you have on you, young man?" Demon cores above level four are very precious. The fat merchant did not think that Xiao Zhu would have such a treasure, so he tactfully did not say anything. However, the price of the demon cores he mentioned was very fair.

Hearing the fat merchant's answer, Xiao Zhu took out seven level 3 magic beast crystal cores from his storage bracelet without hesitation. Xiao Zhu's action caused a stir among the crowd. Although there were many demon hunters in the three border continents, most of them were primary and intermediate demon hunters. High-level demon hunters were very rare. Demon hunters who could hunt such a large number of level 3 magic beasts alone were almost as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. Everyone began to wonder if Xiao Zhu was the son of a big family, and these magic beast crystal cores were all gifts from his family.

The fat merchant was also stunned by the shock, but it was rare to see such a straightforward customer. He stretched out his hand and was about to take the magic beast crystal core from Xiao Zhu's hand, when suddenly a man's voice came from the crowd: "Boss, I want to buy this pair of Acacia Bells. I'll pay 6,000 silver coins."

The voice came before the person arrived. As the voice fell, a young man and woman came forward. The man was not tall, wearing a long robe with gold edges, looking elegant. He held a fan in one hand and the other arm around the slender waist of the beauty next to him. The woman was very tall, half a head taller than the man. She had a hot body, proud breasts and perky buttocks. She twisted her waist intentionally or unintentionally when she walked, making the men around her lustful.

As the two men came over, the people around them consciously made way for them, and some even quietly left the place, which showed that everyone was very afraid of them.

The man walked up to the fat businessman as if no one was around, and threw a heavy purse in front of him with an arrogant look on his face. The woman in his arms giggled, and it was obvious that she liked the pair of love bells very much.

The fat businessman's eyes lit up when he saw the money bag thrown out by the man. Such a wealthy man was really rare. He was about to reach out to take it, but was suddenly stopped by an arm.

"Boss, this isn't right! You clearly said a fixed price just now. What's more, I came first and he came later. Do we have to sell this Acacia Bell to him just because he offered a higher price?" The person who spoke was Xiao Zhu. He had no intention of having a conflict with the couple, but seeing that the boss was so snobbish and Xia Shi liked the pair of Acacia Bells, he spoke out to stop them.

"This..." The fat businessman was embarrassed when he heard this. He did say this just now, and everyone present had seen and heard it. If he regretted it, wouldn't it be a blow to his reputation? He might not be able to continue to survive in Sanbianzhou. But he couldn't afford to offend the man and woman who came later, so he looked to the man for help.

The man was very surprised to see someone step forward. Dissatisfaction flashed across his eyes, and then he looked at Xiao Zhu with interest, and then cast his eyes on Xia Shi. Although he was holding a charming woman in his arms, Xia Shi's elegant and quiet style was completely different from hers. He did not hide the covetous look in his eyes for Xia Shi. After thinking for a while, he said, "It doesn't matter, just sell the bells to them!"

The boss felt as if he had been pardoned when he heard this. He immediately bowed to the man and said, "Thank you very much! Thank you, Master Tang!"

The woman in his arms pouted in dissatisfaction and glanced at Xia Shi with resentment. The man called Master Tang by the fat businessman whispered a few words in her ear and touched her waist. The woman grumbled and the dissatisfaction on her pretty face disappeared. She giggled. Master Tang looked at Xiao Zhu meaningfully, and then the two of them left the scene, talking and laughing.

Seeing the couple leave, the fat businessman felt relieved. He immediately handed the Acacia Bell to Xiao Zhu and took the Warcraft crystal core from Xiao Zhu's hand. The deal was considered done.

Xiao Zhu handed the love bells to Xia Shi. Xia Shi held the pair of exquisite bells in her hands and couldn't let them go. Seeing that Xia Shi liked them, Xiao Zhu felt happy too.

Just as the two turned around and prepared to leave, the fat businessman suddenly shouted, "Young man..."

Xiao Zhu turned to look at the fat businessman. At this time, the crowd had almost dispersed. He saw that he was looking at him. It was obvious that the words just now were directed at him.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Zhu asked.

The fat businessman stopped talking and suddenly looked around, hesitating, "No, nothing..."

Xiao Zhu and Xia Shi looked at each other with strange expressions. They really didn't have any good feelings towards this snobbish fat businessman. After hearing what he said, they turned around and left.
