Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 976: Chapter 976: Prehistoric Overlord (Part 4)

Crash——

Tun Xiang didn’t see how Chuzheng moved, but the entire stall in front of him flew.

Tun Xiang immediately retreated.

The surrounding beasts were unfazed by this; some watched, while others continued their own business, not even bothering to glance.

This kind of thing happens countless times every day, nothing special to see.

The stall owner was also forced back a few steps, his face growing increasingly grim.

A sudden killing intent emerged from him, fingers clawed, reaching towards Tun Xiang.

Tun Xiang felt the pressure from the stall owner, his legs weakening in fear, watching helplessly as the stall owner charged forward.

Yet just when the owner was about to reach him, he seemed to be yanked away, tumbling twice in the air before crashing to the ground.

The stall owner clutched his chest, his sharp gaze sweeping around.

It wasn’t that little guy who moved just now.

Someone else is hiding in the shadows.

”Since you’re all here, why hide? Come out!”

Chuzheng stood right in front of the stall owner, her expression indifferent.

You tell me to come out, I come out.

Do I have no dignity?

Not hearing a response, the stall owner cautiously got up, only to be kicked away once more before he could steady himself.

This time, he slammed directly into the wall behind.

The stall owner spat out a mouthful of blood.

What kind of creature...

His mind spun rapidly, deciding to abandon his goods and flee over the stones.

He didn’t even know who was attacking; if he kept resisting, he’d be the one to die.

”Who struck just now?”

”That little guy, probably.”

”Can’t be, I didn’t see him move.”

”Could there be a big creature following him around?”

The beasts in the marketplace whispered among themselves.

”Great King...”

Tun Xiang looked at the beautiful bird returning, swallowing hard.

The Great King is indeed formidable.

”Find someone else to exchange with.” Chuzheng stepped elegantly, dragging her long tail feathers past him.

”Yes, yes.”

Tun Xiang hurriedly followed her.

After such an episode, Tun Xiang sought someone to trade with, his counterpart somewhat suspicious, but wary of whether Tun Xiang had a powerful protector, they refrained from making any moves.

Tun Xiang traded from stall to stall in the marketplace until his hands were full.

”Was he holding Stone Lotus Fruit just now?”

”I didn’t missee; it was indeed Stone Lotus Fruit.”

”Could he be from a powerful tribe?”

”Exchanging Stone Lotus Fruit for this junk, what was he thinking?”

Stone Lotus Fruit has no side effects; satiating and enhancing one’s power. These ten Stone Lotus Fruits could be traded for many treasures in this marketplace.

Yet Tun Xiang was trading for ordinary items.

Tun Xiang knew it was undervalued, but what can he do; the Great King insisted such exchanges.

If not for his reminder, the Great King wanted to use ten Stone Lotus Fruits directly for an exchange.

[Congratulations to Miss for completing the task, ten Stone Lotus Fruits have been credited as a reward.]

Chuzheng took out a Stone Lotus Fruit and took a bite. This thing might not be sweet, but it could increase strength, which she needed now.

Chuzheng glanced at Tun Xiang, throwing him two fruits.

”The Great King gave me these?”

Tun Xiang didn’t dare accept, looking at Chuzheng incredulously.

Just how many does the Great King have!!

Chuzheng’s tone was cold, slightly impatient: ”Do you want them or not?”

Tun Xiang nodded repeatedly, reaching out to take them, only to have the items in his hands spill to the ground.

The surrounding beasts looked over, seeing Tun Xiang squatting to pick up the scattered items, with a Stone Lotus Fruit in his mouth!

”...”

Jealousy!

Taking out so many Stone Lotus Fruits, how does he still have more!

Is Stone Lotus Fruit sold wholesale at your house?!

-

”Kid, stop right there!”

Tun Xiang instinctively turned around.

A few young teenagers rushed over aggressively from the other side.

The people around hurriedly avoided them.

Afraid?

Not really.

Just not wanting trouble, that’s all.

”I heard you have Stone Lotus Fruit.” The leading teenager was tall and sturdy, with dark skin like most transformed beasts of the Prehistoric Era. The teenager was arrogant, pointing at Tun Xiang: ”Hand over the Stone Lotus Fruit and I’ll spare your life.”

Tun Xiang clutched his belongings tightly: ”I don’t have any.”

”Huh, don’t have?” The teenager was skeptical: ”You took out so many just now, how can you not have any? Be smart, hand it over!”

Tun Xiang: ”I really don’t have any left.”

The best thing to do with Stone Lotus Fruit is to consume it, never keep it.

Just like those he exchanged earlier, the stall owners immediately ate them in front of everyone; keeping them would only cause trouble.

”If you’re that oblivious, then don’t blame us. Grab him!” The teenager waved his hand, and those behind him lunged at Tun Xiang.

Tun Xiang bolted behind Chuzheng.

Of course, others couldn’t see, only seeing Tun Xiang run a few steps back and then stop, seemingly avoiding the crowd.

The scene was somewhat comical.

However, when those teenagers rushed forward, unsurprisingly, they all flew out in unison.

Tun Xiang breathed a sigh of relief; the Great King was formidable.

The leading teenager didn’t engage, but seeing his crew fly out, he was a bit dazed.

There was no one beside Tun Xiang; how did his men end up flying?

The teenager’s dark face grew fiercer, anger burning in his eyes, just as he planned to retaliate when a pleasant voice sounded behind him.

”Ting Cao.”

The teenager’s expression changed immediately, his aggression receding.

A woman approached leisurely, dressed in vibrant clothes unlike the beasts in the marketplace, barely using random items to cover themselves.

At this moment, the woman appeared like an exotic presence to everyone.

Like a flock of black swans with one white swan joining.

”What’s she wearing?”

”Really nice.”

”She’s pretty too...”

”Sister Yao Rao.” Ting Cao, shedding his previous fierceness, obediently called out to the woman: ”He has Stone Lotus Fruit, and I was about to make him hand it over!”

The woman smiled gently: ”I’ve told you countless times not to do this.”

Ting Cao was somewhat dissatisfied but didn’t argue with the woman, instead apologizing: ”Sister Yao Rao, I was wrong.”

Yao Rao looked at Tun Xiang, her smile softening further, asking softly, ”Little one, do you have Stone Lotus Fruit?”

Tun Xiang looked at Chuzheng, seeing her fixated on the woman, cautiously shook his head: ”I don’t have any left.”

Chuzheng sensed a faint Phoenix Stone aura... but very weak, probably not carried by her, merely contacted.

Chuzheng’s mind flashed to a vague memory.

It was indeed a woman at the time; by Prehistoric Era standards, no one wore such clothes...

Beasts of the Prehistoric Era had magic, using spells to cover themselves instead of stylish clothes, likely because they never saw them.

So, back then, the person was very likely this woman now.

Yao Rao continued to negotiate with Tun Xiang, her gentle tone easily disarming others.

”I really don’t have any.” Tun Xiang shook his head.

Yao Rao’s eyes flickered with a dark hue, vanishing quickly.
