The Little She-Devil's soft voice rang out on the peaceful street. In the passageway of the city gate, the people surrounding Xiao Chen all looked towards him. Their eyes revealed traces of smiles, as though they were taking pleasure in his misfortune.
They were all looking forward to Xiao Chen's performance. After all, ever since that Ranger was forced into the Great Desolate, it had been a long time since anyone dared to offend this Little She-Devil. They didn't expect that such a rash fool would appear today.
Not to mention her eight brothers, just from this Little She-Devil's name, Ying Lin 'er, using the name of the Shadow Forest Tribe as her name, one could imagine how much she was doted on. On the mainland, there were very few females who would be named after their tribe's name. Normally, only the males of the tribe would have this honor.
Seeing that Xiao Chen didn't pay attention to her, the Little She-Devil, who was on the back of the Jade-eyed Golden Condor, lightly patted the condor's head, suppressing its tyrannical emotions.
"Hey, idiot, I think this is your first time coming to my Duanmu City. However, my rules cannot be broken just because of you. Since you didn't bring anything with you, then follow me and be my attendant for a year."
With a light sentence, she made the decision for Xiao Chen. Her tone seemed to carry great benevolence, as though following her as a slave was a great favor.
"What!
This brat actually has such good luck. If I had known earlier, I would have come alone today. "
Hearing the Little She-Devil's words, the crowd immediately burst into an uproar. Some of them even pounded their chests in regret, lamenting why they didn't have such luck. To them, this matter of being a slave was a great opportunity. The Shadow Forest Tribe was a top-notch tribe among the low-ranked tribes. The tribe had countless cultivation methods and treasures that ordinary humans wouldn't even dare to think about.
The path of martial arts was nothing more than wealth, cultivation methods, companions, and land. The first two were resources and cultivation methods. Following the Little Princess of the Shadow Forest Tribe, there was no need to be afraid of not having enough resources. As long as a sliver of it was revealed through the gaps of her fingers, ordinary people would be able to benefit greatly.
Everyone's gloating gaze towards Xiao Chen also turned into envy.
In the eyes of the crowd, there was nothing wrong with being a slave. In Duanmu City, there was indeed a slave trade. However, the majority of the slaves were females. Furthermore, most of the slaves came from the Scattered Tribes. Because the Scattered Tribes were weak, the Scattered Tribes did not have enough blood to sustain the entire tribe. Hence, they could only sell some of the young girls to other places in order to survive.
"I'm guessing that this brat will happily agree. He might even kneel down to thank this little demoness for her kindness."
A young man with red eyes said with jealousy.
"Little girl, if you're done, let's go home and eat!"
The casual words of the Little She-Devil drifted into everyone's ears.
Hua!
These words were as light as a feather, but they were like rolling heavenly thunder, shocking everyone. Boos rose and fell continuously.
"Is this kid crazy? Doesn't he know what he's talking about?"
"This brat must be crazy. Now that he has offended the Little Demoness, I don't think he will be able to walk out of Duanmu City."
"What an ignorant fool."
The crowd, who were originally jealous of Xiao Chen's luck, couldn't help but feel happy when they saw how easily Xiao Chen destroyed the Little Demoness. Little did they know that they were the frogs at the bottom of the well. Ignorant insects, how could a sparrow know the ambitions of a great swan?
"Bastard, what did you say? Don't you know the consequences of offending me?"
Xiao Chen's words made the Little Demoness, who was on the back of the Golden Condor, seething with anger. No one had ever dared to speak to her in such a manner. Under the red dress, her twin peaks rose and fell continuously.
Today, she was in a good mood, which was why she gave this foolish and ignorant young man a chance. In her heart, she had already sketched out the following scene.
This fool would kneel down excitedly under her skirt and thank her for taking him in. As for herself, the beautiful Miss Ying Lin 'er, she would display an indifferent expression. What a wonderful moment.
Looking at the young man who still displayed an indifferent expression, Ying Lin 'er could even feel a trace of ridicule in his eyes. There was even a trace of disdain. Ying Lin' er could no longer hold it in.
"Bi 'er, hit him."
The Jade-eyed Golden Condor that Ying Lin 'er was sitting on could no longer hold it in. After hearing its master's order, the two stars between its eyebrows immediately shone with divine light. A dazzling ball of light flickered, and the bloodline on its huge body fluctuated. In an instant, a sharp claw that was dozens of feet long grabbed towards Xiao Chen with a violent whistling sound.
Green light circulated on Xiao Chen's right hand, and he reached out towards the huge claw that was whistling towards him. The huge claw, which was originally falling down like a thousand pounds, was caught in his hand. No matter how much it struggled, it didn't move at all.
Hua!
Such a scene caused everyone to be taken aback. Some of the humans who were close to Xiao Chen even quietly shifted their bodies away, afraid that they would be caught in the crossfire of the giant condor's attack.
There was no earth-shattering explosion like they had imagined, and there was no scene of Xiao Chen being struck to the ground, with all his bones shattered.
"Blood Refining Realm warrior, he's a Blood Refining Realm warrior!"
The young man who was originally extremely jealous of Xiao Chen even shouted loudly when he saw such a scene. Although Duanmu City was filled with experts, the Blood Refining Realm was still the top expert in the city.
Such a young Blood Refining Realm warrior was definitely not a nobody. At this moment, everyone finally understood why this young man would do such a thing. He didn't even give any face to the little princess of the Shadow Forest Tribe. With such strength, how could the power behind him be simple?
"Chirp chirp … Chirp chirp …"
No matter how the Jade-eyed Golden Condor struggled, it was unable to escape from the young man's hand. Not only that, but the violent struggle caused the Little She-Devil on its back to hold on tightly to its wings to prevent herself from being flung to the ground.
The Little She-Devil was somewhat shocked when Xiao Chen revealed his Blood Refining Realm cultivation. However, it was only out of her expectations. After all, her brothers were all Blood Refining Realm warriors. At this moment, her quick-witted eyes continuously flickered. A wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him. She decided to first escape from this place and then call for reinforcements.
As someone who had lived two lives, how could Xiao Chen not see through the Little She-Devil's intentions? However, as the leader of a tribe, how could he be angry with a little girl? Furthermore, he had just arrived, so he didn't want to offend the ruler of Duanmu City.
"Little She-Devil, it's not easy for us humans to survive in the Great Wilderness. Why must we make things difficult for our own people?"
After speaking to the Little She-Devil, the green Battle Qi on Xiao Chen's right hand instantly dissipated and returned to his body. Seeing that Xiao Chen had loosened his fingers, the Golden Condor immediately retracted its huge claws. Not only that, it instantly spread its huge wings. With a flash of golden light, it flew into the sky in the blink of an eye, far away from Xiao Chen.
"Damn it, this act is too realistic. He was originally a fierce dragon crossing the river, but he pretended to be poor. Could it be that all powerful people like this kind of style?"
The burly man who was originally the closest to Xiao Chen kept muttering to himself. He was extremely impressed by Xiao Chen's gorgeous turn.
After releasing the Golden Condor, Xiao Chen didn't continue to pester her. As for whether the Little She-Devil was pestering him, he didn't care about it. Ignoring the gazes of the crowd, he immediately walked away. Seeing this, the crowd made way for him.
"Hey, idiot, do you dare to leave your name!"
"Haha, why not? This tribe leader will never change my name or surname. I am Xiao Chen!"
