Chapter 153: Deal
“Let’s go! Go buy the beauties…”
Earlier, Ling Mo had promised Zhu Zhuqing that he would buy all these girls. Since he promised, Ling Mo would definitely do it.
However… he really didn’t know what to do with these people after buying them.
Could it be to serve him?
Thinking about it was fine, but unfortunately Ling Mo couldn’t afford it.
Moreover, if he really bought them back just to serve, their destiny wouldn’t change at all.
It would just be changing places to continue enslaving them.
“Get your consul here…”
Ling Mo said to the staff member nearby, and she left! It seemed she was going to call the consul.
“Hello Mister, what can I help you with…”
In no time, that consul came over, it was the one who had been bickering with Xue Xing on stage earlier.
Ross, Level 81 Soul Douluo! The highest leader of the Auction House.
Xue Xing had already left, but that killing intent-filled gaze when he left, Ling Mo still vaguely remembered.
This matter definitely wasn’t over; once they left the Auction House, there might be a tough battle waiting for Ling Mo.
Unfortunately… Ling Mo wasn’t afraid. In fact, he was waiting for exactly such an opportunity.
Ross walked over and said respectfully.
He had just seen the current Crown Prince walking very close to Ling Mo; a person who even dared to confront Prince Xue Xing, he didn’t think Ling Mo was a prodigal son.
On the contrary, he felt Ling Mo was even more terrifying than Xue Xing.
This intuition came from his many years of accumulated experience in reading people.
“Nothing! I just want to ask you one thing…”
“Oh? Mister, speak freely…”
Ross was very puzzled; what did Ling Mo want to ask?
“How much for each of your girls here? And… how many Auction Houses, big and small, are there in total?”
As soon as Ling Mo said this, Ross was immediately stunned!
Why would Ling Mo ask this question? He thought Ling Mo would ask about Prince Xue Xing, but he didn’t mention it at all.
“Mister means, you want to buy all these girls?”
Ross said incredulously; this was an expensive price! What did Ling Mo want to do? Really buy all these people?
In his eyes, these people were just tools for the powerful to play with.
“Nonsense, why would I ask if I wasn’t buying! Just say how many and the total price; don’t think too much about the rest…”
Ling Mo was too lazy to explain to him; just tell him the price and the number.
As for what to do after buying, it wasn’t Ross’s business.
“Mister, please wait a moment; I’ll go tally it up and give you an exact price shortly…”
After speaking, Ross wiped some sweat and hurried away.
This guy was too hard to serve; if not for the money, he really didn’t want to deal with Ling Mo.
“Alright! Wait a bit first; once these people are brought back later, it should be about enough!
Just right, there’s no one managing on the mountain; putting these people there, they can do some work like serving tea and pouring water…”
Ling Mo really couldn’t think of what else these people could do; the only thing they could probably do was serve people.
Because they had been trained like this since childhood; it was impossible to change in a short time.
“Let’s go, go see that Cat Girl…”
Saying that, Ling Mo took Zhu Zhuqing and left here.
Passing through a corridor to the first floor, he saw an iron cage on the ground with the Cat Girl waiting inside, full of fear.
When she noticed Ling Mo and Zhu Zhuqing, she was clearly startled.
“Mutant Martial Soul? Interesting…”
Ling Mo activated his Dual Pupils and immediately saw her problem; her current state was completely due to mutation of her Martial Soul.
Her series of movements had gradually become cat-like; essentially, she had turned into a cat, just… a humanoid cat.
A tail growing from behind was the feature of her Martial Soul mutation.
For some reason, after seeing the Cat Girl, Zhu Zhuqing felt a stir in her heart; perhaps because they both had cat Martial Souls, she felt great pity for this Cat Girl trapped in the iron cage.
“Open it…”
He directly told the staff nearby to open the cage, but they didn’t move at all.
“Mister, she has beastized; it’s an uncontrollable factor. Once opened, if any problem arises, the Auction House is not responsible. Are you sure you want to open it?”
At this time, Ross finally returned, but out of good intention, he still reminded Ling Mo.
“Open it! I’ll take responsibility if anything happens…”
Ling Mo repeated; this little cat was only a Soul Venerable, no matter how fast she was, she couldn’t escape his grasp.
Ling Mo was counting on her to manage these people; how could he let her run away.
After getting the reply, Ross waved his hand to signal the staff nearby to open the cage.
He wasn’t afraid of the Cat Girl escaping; since Ling Mo spoke, he had no need to worry.
Most importantly, he wanted to see what means Ling Mo had to subdue this cat.
Bang…
With a crisp sound, the cage opened.
The expected chaotic scene didn’t appear; the Cat Girl crawled out of the cage and actually came straight toward Zhu Zhuqing.
Very docile, not at all like a beast with attack potential!
“Hm? Martial Soul suppression?”
Ling Mo was also quite surprised; he had been thinking about how to subdue this cat, but she turned out to be so docile.
It seemed… she sensed Zhu Zhuqing’s Martial Soul and thus became very docile.
Ever since Zhu Zhuqing consumed the Immortal Spirit Violet Orchid, her Martial Soul had long mutated, becoming even more powerful than before.
She was the true king among cats; it was only natural for this Cat Girl to be tamed.
After all, true Martial Soul suppression was unavoidable!
Especially suppression from the same kind.
Ross was shocked by the Cat Girl’s performance and looked at Zhu Zhuqing with some surprise; he didn’t expect it to be tamed so easily.
Zhu Zhuqing squatted down, touched her head, and smiled gently: “Looks like she likes me more! Some people’s thoughts are dashed…”
Ling Mo: “…”
“The way you say it! As if I had some unspeakable thoughts…”
“Don’t you?”
“No…”
After taming the Cat Girl, she stayed by Zhu Zhuqing’s side and never left.
Ling Mo felt a bit depressed and somewhat regretful.
That was his wife, who had never been this attentive to him; a little cat actually got such gentle treatment from Zhu Zhuqing—it was too infuriating.
“Alright, let’s talk…”
Ling Mo looked at Ross, his meaning very clear.
“Mister, I just made a preliminary estimate; the girls in our Auction House basically start at 100,000 each, some possibly more.
But considering the large quantity you’re buying, we’ve decided to sell each for 100,000.
There are about three hundred plus girls in the entire Auction House; if you buy them all, it’ll be over 30 million!
Are you sure you want to buy?”
Finally, Ross still questioned; this wasn’t a small sum—which sect would be willing to spend such a high price on these useless people?
“Less nonsense, swipe the card…”
Ling Mo directly tossed a card over; that card was extorted from Spirit Hall last time, with Spirit Hall’s mark engraved on it.
After Ross took the card, he was shocked.
This level of card was only for the highest-status talents in Spirit Hall; could Ling Mo be from Spirit Hall?
Ross was inwardly shocked and tremblingly took the card; after the transaction, he handed it back to Ling Mo.
“Mister, for these several hundred girls, do you plan to take them directly, or shall we deliver them personally?”
