Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

Whoosh!

The black whip shadow broke through the air, aiming straight for Xiao Yi's face.

The whip was extremely fast.

Xiao Yi's sword-like eyebrows furrowed as he instinctively raised his hand to grab the whip and then slammed it to the ground. With a loud bang, a dark shadow fell and smashed heavily onto the surface.

Ouch...

A wail followed.

This was a young man dressed in black, riding a beast that was pitch black all over, with two horns on its head, shaped like a bull, rampaging along the way. On its path, it had knocked over quite a few people. Find your next adventure on My Virtual Library Empire

Unexpectedly, he had fallen into the hands of Xiao Yi.

Whoosh!

The young man got up from the ground, glared at Xiao Yi with clenched teeth and said, "You scoundrel, who gave you the guts to block my way? Get over here and kneel down to apologize!"

Xiao Yi squinted his eyes and said, "In broad daylight, in the middle of the street, you dare to ride a beast so recklessly. If I hadn't reacted quickly enough, you would have knocked me down just now. And you think you have the right?"

"Damn it, even if I just knock over a few people, so what if I killed someone?"

The young man's cultivation was merely at the Golden Elixir Peak, but his aura was as if he were a figure of the Dharma Manifestation Realm, disdainful of everything, he said coldly, "Kid, kneel down and apologize to me immediately if you know what's good for you, or I'll make sure you enter upright and leave horizontally!"

Lei Sanwang, who saw the beast behind the young man, had already turned pale, stepped forward, and tugged at Xiao Yi, whispering, "Sir, you should apologize to him! This is Master Tan Huajian of the Tan Family, the largest slave trading merchant in Beast Emperor City, their power is immensely great..."

Slave trading merchant.

No matter where, those who dared to engage in such trade always had significant backing.

The Tan Family could control such trade in Beast Emperor City, their family head was a formidable expert at the first level of Dharma Manifestation Realm, and they also had close relations with Sha Kun.

The surrounding crowd was also persuading in unison, "Young man, apologize to him!"

"That's Master Tan, he's not someone to provoke!"

Tan Huajian's face showed an arrogant look as he coldly watched Xiao Yi, "Did you hear that? Are you not going to kneel for me?"

"Kneel your mother!"

Xiao Yi retorted with a slap.

Slap!

Tan Huajian was struck and sent flying, holding his face in bewilderment as he looked at Xiao Yi, "You, you, you dare to hit me?"

Xiao Yi's expression was as calm as still water, "Get lost! If I see you around me again, I will cripple you!"

Hum!

A pressure from the Tao Tribulation Realm weighed down upon Tan Huajian.

Thump!

Tan Huajian was pressed so hard that his legs went weak, forcing him to kneel on the ground, with cold sweat emerging on his forehead and his face turning pale. In the depths of his eyes was a deep resentment, "Fine, fine, fine, I'll admit defeat today. The mountains won't turn but the waters will; you'd better pray you don't fall into my hands!"

Tan Huajian mounted the beast and sped away.

Lei Sanwang wore a face of despair, "My lord, you, you've really stirred up trouble now..."

Xiao Yi asked, "What? Are you scared?"

Lei Sanwang gave a wry smile, "How could I not be? There's not a single person in the Tan Family who is merciful. Not long ago, a friend of mine just because he didn't yield a parking space to someone from the Tan Family, the whole family was taken away to be slaves..."

"The Tan Family is so domineering? Doesn't anyone deal with them?" Xiao Yi frowned.

So Beast Emperor City was in such chaos?

Lei Sanwang hesitated for a moment, then spoke in a lower voice, "If the City Lord were still in charge, they wouldn't dare be so rampant. But these past few months, with the City Lord severely ill and not concerned with worldly affairs, and Deputy City Lord Sha Kun having such a close relationship with the Tan Family, who do you think would dare to intervene?"

Looking at Lei Sanwang, Xiao Yi knew he was backing down.

He casually took out some silver notes and threw them to Lei Sanwang, "Here are fifty thousand silver notes. You better leave!"

"This, this..."

Lei Sanwang looked at the silver note in his hand and then at Xiao Yi with gratitude-filled eyes, saying, "Thank you for your generous gift... If you want to purchase medicinal materials, you might want to go to the Hundred Herbs Chamber of Commerce, the Starlight Chamber of Commerce, and the Heavenly Treasure Chamber of Commerce to take a look. These three are the biggest medicine material commerce gatherings in the black market!"

Xiao Yi nodded.

Not daring to linger, Lei Sanwang quickly urged his carriage on and departed swiftly.

Xiao Yi wandered alone in the black market.

Besides shops selling all kinds of goods, there were also taverns and entertainment venues from all over, offering everything one could ask for. Especially the brothels, which one could see on every street.

The hookers, scantily clad, stood at the doorway luring clients with their charming postures.

It was truly a sight of luxury.

Hiss hiss!@@novelbin@@

Little Lin poked his head out, asking in wonder, "Boss, what is this place? Why are these women wearing so little..."

Xiao Yi's face darkened as he pushed Little Lin back in, "Not suitable for children!"

Little Lin: "..."

After asking for directions along the way, Xiao Yi finally arrived at the Heavenly Treasure Chamber of Commerce.

The three big medicine material commerce gatherings were actually built together, mere hundreds of meters apart. Each chamber was exceptionally luxurious and grand. From a distance, one could even smell the fragrance of medicinal herbs wafting through the air.

Xiao Yi entered the nearest Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

Inside, people bustled to and fro; it was a vibrant scene.

"Hm?"

Xiao Yi saw a crowd of strong individuals gathered ahead. The place was buzzing with noise and was extremely lively when suddenly, curiosity was piqued by an exclamation from the crowd, "Holy shit, bro, you're awesome! With just 100 taels of silver, you actually picked out a Purple Glow Dragon King Ginseng worth several million!"

"Whimper, why don't I have such luck? I've already spent over a million and only got a three-year-old Polygonum Multiflorum, which hasn't even fully grown yet..."

"Your luck is just too bad!"

Xiao Yi, puzzled, stopped a passerby, "Brother, may I ask what's happening over there?"

The passerby glanced in the direction Xiao Yi was pointing and laughed, "That's the medicine gambling! The Heavenly Treasure Chamber of Commerce sealed some medicinal materials in ninety-nine containers. People can bid for them, and the highest bidder wins. If you choose the right one, you'll become rich overnight, but if you choose wrong, you might lose everything you have!"

"Medicine gambling?"

Xiao Yi's eyes twinkled. He had heard of betting on stones and money but had never heard of gambling on medicine. He thanked the passerby with a gesture of his hand, "Thanks!"

"You're welcome!"

The passerby then left.

Xiao Yi hesitated for a moment, then also headed to the medicine gambling area.

In front of him was a giant disc with grooves. Inside the grooves were white spheres. Each sphere was sealed with a Formation, making it impossible for even Dharma Manifestation Realm experts to see what was inside.

The spheres were numbered from one to ninety-nine.

An expert from the Heavenly Treasure Chamber of Commerce was shouting, "It's about to begin, place your bets and no more after that!"

"Number ninety-nine for one hundred taels!"

"Number eighteen for five hundred taels..."

Various strong individuals kept outbidding each other.

Xiao Yi stared at the disc, and suddenly Little Lin whispered from his embrace, "Boss, there's something good inside number eight!"

"Hm?"

Xiao Yi was startled and looked at number eight. The highest bid so far was nine thousand taels of silver. Xiao Yi immediately offered ten thousand taels on the sphere numbered eight.

Thud!

A bell chimed.

The expert from the Heavenly Treasure Chamber of Commerce announced, "Bets are locked in! Let's start the draw!"

Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow, a trace of curiosity in his gaze, "It must be something good if even Little Lin thinks it is a 'good brother.' I wonder what's really inside number eight! Just hope it's not a loss!"
