Chapter 2119
Apart from the Luo family's shops, there were also shops owned by other families. However, the most prosperous areas were all occupied by the Luo family.
Zi Chen's goal this time was to open up a path to the slave trading area.
For eight years, the Luo family had witnessed how powerful a slave could be after losing control. Therefore, when something unexpected happened, their masters would instantly extinguish the slave's soul.
Such a scene had happened many times, and Zi Chen had suffered a lot during this period. Therefore, before taking action, Zi Chen had to find out everything about this place to minimize the loss of slaves.
It was unknown whether it was because of Zi Chen's constant attacks on the Luo Family over the past eight years or because he had been rescuing slaves, but many of the slave trading centers opened by the families had closed down and switched to other businesses.
"Master, I've already asked around. There's only one slave trading area left, and it's in front of us. It's under the control of the Luo family." Deren secretly transmitted to Zi Chen through voice transmission.
Zi Chen didn't respond. At this moment, his eyes were dull, and his appearance was ordinary. He didn't look any different from the other slaves, except that he was a little sloppy.
After saying that, Deren led Zi Chen into the depths of the trading area.
"Hey, friend, please wait a moment. Your slave has an extraordinary temperament. How about we fight? 655 Law Crystals."
"Friend, why don't we have a battle of slaves?"
"Friend, please wait. 655 Law Crystals for a slave battle. If you think it's too little, we can increase the number."
Along the way, Deren looked very excited as if he had just obtained a new slave. He stopped everyone he saw and said that he wanted a slave battle.
The cultivators who came here were naturally people of status. Although their slaves also had dull eyes, at least they were dressed very well. Zi Chen, on the other hand, looked a lot more sloppy. He had messy hair and a dirty face. He looked very miserable.
It had to be said that in order to save these slaves, Zi Chen had put in a lot of effort.
"You're new, aren't you? Scram to the side. How can such a trashy servant want to fight with my servant?"
"It's a hundred crystal battle. Go play on the side."
Those with good tempers would directly reject Deren, while those with bad tempers would scold him and chase him away.
"Hmph, it's fine if you don't want to gamble, but you dare to look down on the servant that this young master spent a large sum of money to buy?"
Turning to look at Zi Chen, Deren murmured, "But such a servant is indeed a little unpresentable. Hmph, I still have ten thousand rule chips anyway. At worst, I'll just buy another one."
Ten thousand rule crystals could be exchanged for a thousand non-elemental rule crystals. In the outer starfields, that was a huge sum of money, but in the Fortress of Steel, it was ridiculous.
As soon as Deren's words left his mouth, it caused a burst of laughter.
"I say, brother, with your wealth, you should go to one of the smaller trading areas and try your luck. Not only are the slaves here good, but they're also very strong. They're worth at least five thousand non-elemental rule crystals," a kind cultivator reminded him.
"What? Five thousand non-elemental rule crystals? That's so expensive." Deren was clearly shocked by this number.
"Hehe, five thousand is the lowest price. Also, there are all kinds of slaves here. Men, women, handsome, pretty, you name it," the kind cultivator said again.
The others laughed again, wondering where this country bumpkin came from, daring to come to the Fortress of Steel with just ten thousand rule crystals.
"It's all that damned Zi Chen's fault. If he hadn't destroyed the other trading areas, this young master wouldn't have come here. This young master is rich in the outer starfields," Deren murmured unhappily, then walked deeper into the trading area.
Everyone could still vaguely hear Deren murmur, "This young master can't afford it, so am I supposed to look down on it? I don't believe that there's a fee to look at this place."
Deren with his slaves was only a joke here, so naturally, no one paid any attention to him.
The topic was drawn to the damned Zi Chen that Deren had mentioned. Almost everyone in the Rakshasa Star Region was familiar with this name, because in just a few years, he had dealt a huge blow to the Luo family. He had destroyed many of the Luo family's external forces, allowing the families that were usually suppressed to have some leeway.
After talking about Zi Chen, these people had a lot to say. Some even mysteriously compared Zi Chen to that person from many years ago.
Zi Chen and Deren didn't know about this. The two of them went straight to the deepest part of the trading area. Wherever they passed, Deren sensibly stopped looking for trouble, but his expression was very awkward.
When some Luo family cultivators noticed this, they couldn't help but sneer. Their superiors had already instructed them to pay attention to unfamiliar faces with their slaves. It was possible that Zi Chen had sneaked in.
But from their point of view, these two guys had nothing to do with the rumored existence who could kill a false Saint as a Heaven Realm expert.
At the center of the trading area was a square. There were many large iron cages on the square, all of which had rune seals on them.
Inside the cages, there were servants who were trapped alone.
These slaves' souls were controlled, but they weren't completely numb. Some of them were covered in wounds, and when they looked at the people around them, their eyes were filled with hatred.
There were more than 055 such slaves in the square, and they were placed there casually for outsiders to see.
Zi Chen, who was pretending to be numb, scanned the floor with his spiritual sense and sensed the exact number of slaves here. There were 081 of them, and more than half of them were ferocious, and they were all male.
These cultivators who entered the square deliberately exuded their auras. Basically, they were all half-Saints. Even those who were at the peak of the Heaven Realm looked very arrogant. As soon as they appeared, some attendants came forward to lead them into the depths of the square.
There was a three-storey castle there, and the attendants brought them into the castle.
When Deren and Zi Chen entered the square, they were ignored by the attendants. Some of them even deliberately bypassed Deren to receive the newcomers.
"What's the meaning of this? Are you looking down on me?" Deren frowned with dissatisfaction.
A fake fairy passed by Deren and glanced at Deren with her narrow eyes. She said disdainfully: "We only receive those who are qualified to trade here. As for you, it's already very merciful that you weren't kicked out directly."
"Damn it, how do you know I'm not qualified to trade?"
Delun was enraged. He had followed Zi Chen for eight years, and although he had never killed a single person, he had seen countless members of the Luo Family being killed. At this moment, the woman's attitude completely enraged him.
"What, you still want to cause trouble?"
The woman looked coldly at Deren and said: "Believe it or not, you'll become a corpse in an instant. You're dreaming if you think you can come here to trade with just 65,555 law chips."
Deren stared deeply at her and suppressed his anger. Zi Chen couldn't do anything now, and he didn't have the strength to fight against the Luo family. He could only swallow his anger.
"Hmph, you win. I'll go see for myself." Deren turned and left, attracting even more disdainful gazes.
A young man several hundred meters in front of Deren turned back and smiled mockingly at Deren.
"Damn it, it's this guy."
Deren cursed. He finally understood why he wasn't welcomed. It must be because the other party had told them that he only had 65,555 law chips.
"Isn't it just letting your servants fight? How dare you expose me in front of them? Just you wait, I'll remember you." Deren said fiercely.
"So what if you remember? That's Young Master Bu Chang. His mother is a member of the Luo Family. He can kill ten or eight of you with just a flick of his finger. What do you have to compare with Young Master Bu Chang?" Another woman said as she looked at Delun with disdain.
"Damn it, I'm so unlucky."
Deren's expression changed, but he didn't say anything else and walked away resentfully.
Although no one was there to receive him, no one stopped Delon as he walked forward. However, some of the service staff pointed at Delon and mocked him with mocking expressions on their faces.
"Damn it, aren't you just relying on your Luo family? Even the attendants are so arrogant. Wait until your grandpa brings Zi Chen's servants to sweep through this place. Let's see if you can still laugh then." Deren said fiercely in his heart.
The castle was decorated in a grand manner. After Deren entered, he saw all kinds of gems emitting light, illuminating the whole place. Seeing this scene, Deren's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
On the first floor, there were also servants, but the quality of these servants was undoubtedly much higher. They were no longer in cages, but in crystal glass display cabinets. Their hands and feet were shackled, and they were open for others to see.
Seeing the introduction of these servants, Deren couldn't help but cry out, "Heavens, these are servants who can fight against half-step Saints. Each one of them has mastered a powerful Heavenly Dao technique."
Deren's cry attracted a lot of attention. The atmosphere here was relatively quiet. Deren's cry was like noise.
"Country bumpkin, you've seen the world." The youth from before looked back at Deren and sneered. He then turned and walked towards the second floor.
"Could it be that the second floor is also filled with servants? The servants here are comparable to half-step Saints. Then what about the second floor?"
It was worthy of being called the largest slave trading center in the Rakshasa Star Field. At this moment, Deren was deeply shocked.
However, he didn't hurry to go to the second floor. Instead, he walked around the first floor. It was as if his eyes weren't enough. Every time he looked at a servant, he would exclaim in surprise.
At the same time, he looked at the unkempt Zi Chen behind him and couldn't help but sigh.
He didn't pay attention to Deren and let him walk around like a clown.
After walking around, Deren reluctantly came to the staircase of the second floor.
At this moment, Zi Chen had already counted. There were 94 servants here. Each of them was an extraordinary existence. They were worth saving.
