Chapter 524: The First Bucket of Gold

Xia Fei had no idea just how much the carcass of a Demon Chrysalis was worth, and he had only been bargaining in accordance with his business acumen. Four hundred grade 3 Origin Crystals were quite a lot, and Xia Fei was actually elated at the offer, but he did not show a trace of his emotions outwardly.

“He’s right! This Demon Chrysalis was on the verge of evolving when it got killed!”

A series of gasps could be heard, and the expression on everyone’s faces changed greatly!

Xia Fei killing a Demon Chrysalis had been a shocking admission by itself, and it was even more so after it had been revealed that the Demon Chrysalis had been on the cusp of evolution!

Once a Demon Chrysalis evolved, the four wings on its back would promptly shrink, and six sharp claws would sprout, increasing its lethality by threefolds!

Xia Fei had struck at the perfect moment; had he allowed the Demon Chrysalis to finish its evolution, even if he had plenty of moves under his belt, he would have a tough time emerging victorious!

The teeth of the Demon Chrysalis could be used as material for weapons, and the thick chitin was material to create armor. The value was astronomical.

The value of an evolved Demon Chrysalis was of course even higher. If someone were to pull apart its abdomen, they would be able to retrieve a second form, which had not yet broken through. It must be mentioned that this was a completely intact body! It was very rare to come across something like this regularly, for there were not many of these evil Demon Chrysalides in the first place. There was only occasionally one or two that the Demon race would lose when they ventured into the wilds.

Unfortunately, the Blood Crystal had already drained the essence of the creature, only leaving behind an intact carcass, so the practical value plummeted as a result.

Mu Tielin gave this matter some thought before offering in a deep voice, “Since this Demon Chrysalis was on the cusp of evolving, it can be considered as a valuable material. After measuring its value, we of the Mu family are willing to pay eight hundred grade 3 Origin Crystals for it. What do you think?”

Xia Fei had a difficult expression etched on his face, muttering to himself, “Perhaps bringing this carcass back to the Yu family won’t be a bad idea, either…”

The Mu brothers were slightly stunned. The black-bearded Mu Tiehai appeared to be quite vexed. Eight hundred grade 3 Origin Crystals already seemed quite a high price for it. After all, this was a carcass devoid of even a drop of blood essence, and in terms of value, it was no more than a third of what it could have been with it.

“A thousand!” Mu Tielin raised his voice and offered. “This is already the best that the Mu family can offer.”

Xia Fei had been secretly observing the two old men’s reaction, so he knew that Mu Tielin was telling the truth, and a thousand grade 3 Origin Crystals were already their maximum limit.

“Done!” Xia Fei nodded.

“Oh, heavens! A thousand grade 3 Origin Crystals!” Phantom’s two eyes sparkled. “You’re rich now!”

…

The Mu family appeared to be in no hurry to inform the Yu family about Xia Fei and they had him stay around for two days, instead.

This was his first time out in the Law Realm, and he did not understand much about this part of space where these powerhouses gathered, so being able to move about here was not a bad thing. This was why he stayed around earnestly, following the disciples of the Mu family every day for cultivation and training while also looking around when he had the free time.

The Mu family stayed on a planet, unlike how the Yu family had everyone aboard a spacecraft, ferrying their million kinsmen through space.

It seemed like owning a super-size spacecraft was a privilege that only prominent families had. Though the Yu family was now in decline, they still had their golden days from before, which was why they owned such a huge spacecraft as their base.

Unlike the Yu family, the Mu family mainly cultivated the Law of Matter among the three Great Laws. Xia Fei saw the warriors engage in combat here, and it was a lot more direct and effective compared to the Law of Space. Even their level 1 Law Warriors were capable of demonstrating a decent combat power.

The Mu family specialized in trap setups, and their Law force allowed them to shape their terrain rapidly, burying some contraption amid the undisturbed land, awaiting specifically when their enemies would show up.

Such a fighting style was hardly considered direct, but it was very devious. Law Warriors familiar with the Law of Matter would be able to set up hundreds of contraptions and traps in the time it took to raise a hand, one after another, the next tighter than the last. Anyone who was unfamiliar with traps would have an extremely hard time escaping.

Clean Knife and Xia Fei had barely spoken ever since that time they met each other again. At most, they would exchange small talks, explaining to Xia Fei the profundity of the Law of Matter and such. In the two to three days there, Xia Fei’s desire to kill him slowly lessened.

It was as if the latter were a completely different person. Once Clean Knife no longer had to kill Xia Fei, he demonstrated his humorous side and was a lot more humble.

Xia Fei was careful to remain vigilant, though. In this foreign territory, no amount of precautions would be too much.

Three days later, someone from the Yu family came to the Mu family, and unexpectedly, it was Yu Hua.

Xia Fei was very curious about this. By right, Yu Hua had already sworn off familial matters, so why would Patriarch Yu Jiang rely on Yu Hua on so many things?

After meeting the two elders of the Mu family, Yu Hua exchanged some pleasantries and handed over some gifts before he took Xia Fei with him to a spatial door.

“Look, this spatial door is actually an enlarged version of the spatial compass. Not only can humans pass through it, plenty of goods can be transported across, too. Practically any family with strength to speak of will build one, just in case they need it from time to time. This time, we won’t be using the compass, and I’ll be taking you across the spatial gate.” Yu Hua pointed to the huge structure in front of him as he spoke.

Actually, even if Yu Hua did not use the spatial compass or the spatial gate, he could pass through space, for his cultivation was as high as a level 7 Law Emperor! He was only second to the family patriarch, Yu Jiang.

He had intentionally hidden the truth about his profound cultivation to Xia Fei, though the reason for doing so was still unknown as of now.

Xia Fei nodded. There was also a similar semicircular gate in the Yu family. Unfortunately, it cost money to travel through the gate and even required the family’s permission. Thus, he had yet the chance to try it.

The spatial gate was big, allowing even an entire contingent to pass through. There were strange patterns carved all over it, looking like they were derivations of the Law of Space.

This semicircular gate was a platform entirely made of metal, and Yu Hua stood right on top of it with Xia Fei.

“If you please.” Smiling, Yu Hua addressed the warrior who was operating the spatial gate to their side.

All of a sudden, the patterns on the gate began spinning clockwise!

It eventually picked up speed, and after several seconds, a glowing mass of light appeared within the confines of the gate.

Something began to take form before Xia Fei, and after the light stabilized, a mirror could be seen; both Yu Hua and he could see their reflections clearly on its surface.

“Okay, you two may pass,” announced the operator.

Yu Hua laughed politely, striding right into the gate. Like walking past a bead of water, the mirror surface rippled after he passed through before it regained stillness after a brief moment.

Xia Fei first tried to stick his leg in, only to discover that the spatial gate gave off no sensation. Beyond was also land, and where his foot landed had solid ground.

Curious, Xia Fei crossed the gate.

Like a thin sheet of paper, behind the mirror was actually the Yu family’s compound! That city he was so familiar with was not too far away in front of him!

Recalling that period of distance he needed to travel when using the spatial compass last time, the spatial gate was a lot more convenient. A single step was all it took no matter how great the distance between the two points.

“Spatial gates sure are amazing! It’s even faster than warp engines!” Phantom exclaimed in genuine surprise. “You can head to the ends of the universe with this thing!”

Xia Fei nodded, wondering if he could perhaps buy himself a similar gate. As such, he would be able to return to the Alliance freely, and seeing Avril would take no more than a few steps!

“Hmph! To think a cockroach like you would actually make your way back alive!” said Yu Qiqi irately with her arms folded. Beside her were the two female attendants whom Xia Fei had met before as well as a few middle-aged men with cold attitudes and seemed to be in the middle of heading out.

Xia Fei smiled slightly as he answered, “Sorry to have disappointed you.”

With that said, he made his way down with Yu Hua and did not even spare Yu Qiqi a second glance. These middle-aged men greeted Yu Hua as if they were already acquainted.

Such an attitude of sheer disregard pierced Yu Qiqi, and she soon pouted and jeered, “You’re nothing more than a little level 2 Law Warrior, so what’s there to be so smug about?”

Xia Fei turned around and extended four fingers, softly saying, “Not level 2, though I am a lowly level 4 Law Warrior.”

“Level 4!” Yu Qiqi and that group of middle-aged men were greatly surprised. It had merely been ten days since that battle in the collection reservoir. To have promoted two whole levels in such time, it was practically godspeed!

Xia Fei walked off without turning his head behind, and that infuriated Miss Yu Qiqi once again. She had never in her life been treated in such a dismissive manner, always ending up on the losing side of things every time she met Xia Fei. How preposterous was that?

“Miss, actually, Xia Fei is pretty amazing, and his promotion speed rivals that of Brother Xiaobei,” one of the female attendants whispered into Yu Qiqi’s ear.

“Tsk! How can Xia Fei compare to Brother Xiaobei? What’s the use of promoting so fast, anyway? The gap to make it to level 6 isn’t easy. The higher he jumps now, the greater his fall!” Yu Qiqi said through clenched teeth.

…

It was still the same pier by the river, and Xia Fei had once more come to meet with the family patriarch, Yu Jiang.

This time, Yu Jiang’s attitude had changed a lot after all that happened, and his eyes were even more eager than before.

“Xia Fei, oh Xia Fei, I looked up information in the Alliance about you and learned that you were never out of trouble, yet I never imagined that it would turn out like this.” Yu Jiang chuckled, his tone not at all sounding like he was reprimanding him.

As Xia Fei was confused, Yu Jiang continued. “You killed plenty of descendants in the collection reservoir, and those people all have parents and brothers. Being merciless when you act is a good thing, as this Law Realm doesn’t allow pity. Unfortunately, your foundation is shallow, making it easy for you to become a target to the masses”

Xia Fei softly replied, “They’re all enemies.”

“Does that mean enemies must all die?”

Xia Fei nodded firmly.

Yu Jiang burst out into laughter. “Able to be so decisive when it comes to murder means you’ll be a force to be reckoned with. Forget it. I’ve already suppressed all those who seek to bring you harm, so they won’t be causing any problem for now. Still, remember that this is just temporary.”

The topic then shifted, and Yu Jiang asked with a smile, “I heard that you had killed that Demon Chrysalis?”

“That’s right.”

“I’m very intrigued. Even if you do have a level 4 Law Warrior cultivation, that isn’t enough for you to slay a vicious adult Demon Chrysalis. Just how did you do it?” Yu Jiang asked with a twinkle in his eye.

Xia Fei had already guessed that he would have to field such a question, which was why he told them the story he had long crafted in his mind to explain what had happened.

He claimed that he had met an expert while in the gaps in space, and this person beat the Demon Chrysalis until it was close to death, so he was coincidentally given an opportunity to benefit off it. The point was that there was no way for anyone to verify what had really happened in the gaps in space, so Xia Fei could make up anything he wanted.

Yu Jiang and Yu Hua were of course unconvinced, but they could only laugh. They were helpless if Xia Fei did not wish to share with them what had truly happened. After all, Xia Fei was now no longer a cripple but rather a talented genius of the family who could be counted in one hand! It was easy to tell that he would be pivotal to the revitalization of the Yu family in the future, so there was no need for them to pry after Xia Fei’s affairs unless absolutely necessary.

Who in this realm did not have a secret or two of theirs living in the depths of their heart? It would be strange if Xia Fei had told them the truth plainly as tragedy would only befall anyone who lacked a scheming mind in this realm, which was fraught with danger in every corner.

After exchanging a few more words, Yu Jiang sent Xia Fei back, throwing out a line before his departure.

“Quickly return to your Roaring Tiger Park and take a look. It’s gotten very lively there now!”
