Douluo: Reborn as a Dragon, I am the Lord of Soul Beasts

Chapter 21: Black eats black? Taking advantage of the fire!

Two days have passed, and Ying Qian has been staying in this hotel. Today is the third day. It is the day of the transaction, and Xu Tianran has also received news about his teaching at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy.

It was said that when the school opened this year, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy would build a separate campus for him to use for teaching. Ying Qian naturally knew all about Xu Tianran's little tricks.

It was nothing more than being afraid that he would steal Mingde Hall's soul guidance technology. But it didn't matter, he didn't need to learn soul guidance technology himself. He just needed to continuously send his own talents to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, and then with a little guidance, change the research direction of Mingde Hall.

So far, Ying Qian's plan has not gone wrong. Looking at the time, Ying Qian prepared to leave for the transaction location.

Before leaving, Ying Qian reminded Gao Dalou to wait for him at the hotel. Gao Dalou readily agreed.

It was a dark night with strong winds. Ying Qian took advantage of the night and walked towards the agreed location. The trading location was just outside the suburbs of Mingdu. Mingdu had no city walls, so the suburbs of Mingdu became the only choice for the transaction.

When Ying Qian arrived, the black market store manager had been waiting for a long time. There were also several people standing behind him. Although it was late at night, Ying Qian still used his outstanding power to see clearly the origins of those people.

Pingfan League, one of the underground forces in Mingdu.

As soon as the boss of the black market saw Ying Qian, he immediately waved and said, "Sir, this way, this way."

Ying Qian frowned, but didn't say anything. Instead, he quickly walked to the opposite side of the boss. Behind the boss, there were several figures hiding their figures in the darkness, but Ying Qian was not afraid at all and said directly, "Where is the thing I want?"

The boss raised his hand and waved the five storage soul guide rings in his hand and said: "Sir, the goods you want are all here. However, the rules of our black market transactions are that we pay for the goods first and then we deliver them. Look, hehehe."

Ying Qian didn't hesitate, and immediately threw out five dragon scales according to the price he had agreed with the black market boss. These were the dragon scales he occasionally took off when he was itchy, and he had plenty of them. Today, they came in handy.

After checking, the black market boss threw the five storage soul guide rings in his hand to Ying Qian. Ying Qian reached out to catch them, scanned them with his spiritual sense, and after confirming that the number of things he wanted was correct, he prepared to leave.

But suddenly a charming voice came from behind.

"Young man, please wait a moment." A figure walked out of the darkness. It was a woman in a bright red dress. She looked extremely beautiful from a distance. Her long chestnut hair was piled high on her head. She walked with a swaying figure. She was graceful and charming, but her face was full of holiness. She was truly a beauty. Her slender waist, waving hips and waving breasts were all extremely attractive.

"Oh? The deal is done, do you have anything else to do?" Ying Qian's gaze only stayed on the woman for a moment before moving away. The reason was simple, because Ying Qian could feel that the vitality of the woman was not so strong anymore.

There is even a sense of old age, that is, despite her bright and beautiful appearance, this woman may actually be a centenarian.

"Hey young man, I'm Shangguan Weier, the leader of the Ordinary Alliance." Shangguan Weier noticed Ying Qian's clear eyes, and after a slight surprise, she began to introduce herself.

"Alliance Leader Shangguan, nice to meet you. Is there anything else you need?" Ying Qian shrugged his nose. He smelled a different scent in the air. If it wasn't the work of Shangguan Weier in front of him, then it meant that there was a third-party force around.

"Oh, this young man is really anxious! Hehehe." Shangguan Wei'er smiled, and her chest suddenly surged, making the black market boss beside him feel a little dry.

"I just want to tell you, brother, that if there are any more deals like this in the future, feel free to come to our Pingfan League. Not only can we meet your needs, but we can also give you a 5% discount on the original price. And in the future, when you come to consume at the forces under my Pingfan League, it will be free of charge." Shangguan Weiler said.

For a young man who could trade five dragon scales, Shangguan Weier would not be stupid enough to rob others. Such a young man must have someone behind him. At least before she figured out Ying Qian's true identity, Shangguan Weier still wanted to build a good relationship with Ying Qian for the purpose of cooperation. This is why she offered conditions to keep Ying Qian.

"Haha, Alliance Leader Shangguan is really a businessman. But I just don't know how much power is behind Alliance Leader Shangguan's Ordinary Alliance, and whether it can meet my needs?" Ying Qian chuckled.

Shangguan Wei'er's eyes lit up, and she thought to herself, "There's hope."

"Of course I can. I'm not afraid that my brother will know. In Mingdu, apart from the Aodu Chamber of Commerce that can snatch business from my Pingfan Alliance, there is no third company that can meet your needs." At this time, Shangguan Wei'er's address to Ying Qian changed from little brother to young master.

"But those stinky soldiers in the Aodu Chamber of Commerce are not as caring as the girls in my Ordinary League! As long as you come to us for cooperation in the future, the girls in our Ordinary League are beautiful and will be loved by you. Even I can do whatever I want as long as you pay the right price." Shangguan Wei'er said bluntly. He didn't believe that Ying Qian, a young man who looked full of vigor and vitality, could resist such temptation.

But Shangguan Wei'er would eventually be disappointed. Ying Qian had been very calm from beginning to end, and did not show any flaws because of Shangguan Wei'er's teasing. Ying Qian even said sarcastically: "If the Pingfan League is really as powerful as Leader Shangguan said, then why are there other people lying in ambush around today?"

Ying Qian's words startled Shangguan Wei'er, and she immediately noticed the changes around her. The purple-black mist had become visible to the naked eye. Shangguan Wei'er wanted to hold her breath and drive her soul power, but it was too late. As soon as she activated her soul power, Shangguan Wei'er felt weak all over.

"Hehehe. You're trapped in my maze and you still want your martial spirit to possess you?" Weird voices were heard all around.

Shangguan Weier was shocked. Looking back, she saw that the people she brought with her had inhaled too much poisonous fog like her and were unable to move. Only the boss of the black market was still standing there.

"It's you!" Shangguan Wan'er immediately knew what was going on. She was stabbed in the back.

But it was too late now. A figure covered in a black robe flashed out from the darkness. The black market boss saw this and immediately crawled to him like a dog, knelt at the man's feet and said, "Mr. Messenger, I have completed the task as you said. Can I..." Before he finished speaking, the strange voice sounded again, "You have completed it very well, so I will reward you to go to heaven."

As soon as he finished speaking, a dry hand grabbed the black market boss's head. The black market boss's body was like a pump that had sucked away his menstrual blood. His body quickly shrank. In a moment of breathing, the black market boss was completely gone. Like a fallen leaf in the cold autumn, he was trampled on wantonly.

"Evil soul master!" Seeing this scene, Shangguan Weier instantly understood the man's identity.

"Hehehe, Alliance Leader Shangguan, you seem to be well-informed!" The man in black robe knew Shangguan Wei'er.

"You~ ahem~ what are you going to do?" Shangguan Wei'er just felt that she didn't even have the strength to speak now. The poisonous fog had already begun to enter her brain.

"Don't worry, Lord Shangguan, I won't kill you. You're so beautiful, I can't bear to do that, but before that, I have to get rid of the person who's in the way."

After the black-robed man finished speaking, he set his sights on Ying Qian. With a fierce look in his eyes, he asked, "How did you see through my poison mist?"

"It's nothing, just garbage!" Ying Qian said disdainfully.

"Really? Hahahaha, you're right, I'm just trash. I've been trash since I was born. How can I compare to you guys who were born with a golden key. But today, I'll let you taste the power of trash." The man in black robe suddenly became agitated, and a black mist mixed with the smell of blood spewed out of his mouth.

"Garbage is always garbage. Even if it is gilded, it is just shiny garbage. What's more, you are real garbage." Ying Qian snorted disdainfully, and his right hand turned into a claw. The power of thunder was grasped in his hand, and his expression remained unchanged. Suddenly, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes. The power of thunder gathered in his hand into a huge electric ball, emitting a strong light. He waved his hand, and the electric ball instantly shot towards the black-robed man, smashing into the opponent like Thor's hammer.

The black-robed man was enveloped by the power of thunder, and he let out a scream, his body shaking violently. The black mist was dispersed by the lightning, revealing the terrified face of the black-robed man. Ying Qian's figure flashed, turned into a flash of lightning, and instantly appeared beside the black-robed man. His dragon claws shone with cold light, piercing the black-robed man's vitals.

The black-robed man closed his eyes in horror, realizing his defeat. With a shrill scream, the black-robed man disappeared in the thunder, leaving only a cloud of dust and a whisper of fear. Ying Qian stood firmly in place, his eyes still showing that indifference and ruthlessness, and the battle ended.

The nonchalant expression and the clean and neat action made Shangguan Weier beside him feel fortunate for a moment. She was glad that her choice today was right and she did not choose to rob the young-looking man, otherwise she might be the one to disappear in the thunder.

"Ahem~ Thank you for saving my life, sir." Shangguan Weier forced herself to thank Ying Qian. But Ying Qian's next words really chilled her heart.

"Thank me? Didn't you hire these people to rob your fellow criminals? You really are a suitable actor."

Shangguan Wei'er turned pale when she heard Ying Qian's words, and her eyes began to flash with unspeakable worry and uneasiness. Her lips trembled slightly, but she couldn't find the right words to defend herself.

"Alliance Leader Shangguan, it seems that you are not so obedient to the rules!" Ying Qian said calmly.

"No, no~ don't kill me. I really don't know these people. How could I possibly deal with an evil soul master?" Shangguan Wei'er's tone was already a little tearful as she kept begging Ying Qiandao.

Ying Qian stopped and turned around. His eyes were sharp and cold, without any hesitation. "I won't believe your words easily. But I'm not a heartless person either."

He slowly approached Shangguan Weier, stopped beside her, and looked down at her. "If you are really innocent, show me some evidence!"

"What evidence?" Shangguan Wei'er was stunned, and then she saw Ying Qian constantly playing with the storage soul guide rings.

"I have it, I have it." Shangguan Wei'er immediately understood the implication of Ying Qian's words, and immediately handed over the storage soul guide on her body and the five dragon scales she had just taken from Ying Qian to Ying Qian.

"If we had done this earlier, it would have been over." Ying Qian smiled and randomly checked the storage soul guides. Well, a lot of harvest.

"Alliance Leader Shangguan, I didn't mean to do this. But this happened during our first transaction. You should at least give me some mental compensation, right?"

Ying Qian got the advantage but still acted like a good kid, but Shangguan Weier had to acquiesce. There was nothing she could do. The situation was stronger than the people. Whoever had the bigger fist was the boss. What's more, they were all underground smugglers, so it was normal for a few people to die every day.

"By the way, Alliance Leader Shangguan, let me remind you to be careful of the Xishui Alliance. They are not as simple as they seem. If Alliance Leader Shangguan is willing, you can cooperate with me. As for the price? We can discuss it then!"

Finally, Ying Qian returned the five dragon scales to Shangguan Weier and took away the other things. This thing was originally something that fell from Ying Qian's body, and Ying Qian didn't care at all.

On the way back, Ying Qian was a little absent-minded. He encountered the evil soul masters for the first time. This showed that Xishui League was no longer satisfied with the status quo. They were able to attack Shangguan Weier tonight, which meant that they had hooked up with a certain prince, and the one who held real power. Otherwise, they would not have been able to go against the nobles of the entire Sun Moon Empire.

"It seems that Xu Tianran's path to becoming the crown prince is not so smooth!"

Ying Qian said thoughtfully that since the Holy Spirit Church did not reach a cooperation with Xu Tianran as in the original novel, they would definitely look for other forces to compete for the crown prince. At present, according to what Ying Qian knew, the most likely person to be named the crown prince was Xu Tianran, the fourth prince, and only the second prince of the Sun and Moon Emperor, Xu Tianyin, who was qualified to compete with Xu Tianran for the throne.
