Chapter 900 Chapter 900 Plunder
"Use this, young miss." The old slave trader said and he was ever careful in his words.
Even if Ning Xi was only a slave maid but he could see that Chu Yang treated her no differently than family. Thus, he was not stupid to test their bond. The process went on smoothly.
"I did it, young master! I can see the inside of the ring and there are stacks of items in here!" Ning Xi exclaimed at what she witnessed.
At first glance alone, there was probably hundreds of them!
"Take one at random and give it to me, Xi'er." Chu Yang said. Ning Xi complied and took a wooden stele that had the number of 1782 on its surface.
He remembered the strange numbers of the forehead of the slaves outside. It was not hard to piece the clues together.
"By your estimation, how many slaves do you think are there in Silver Snow City?" Chu Yang asked while still deep inside the cage of his thoughts. But it was clear to who this question was intended for.
"That... I could only give a wild guess of about 2 million more or less, young master Chu." The old slave trader answered.
He did not know what this young man wanted but he did no care at all. What mattered most was that he was going to have a big bonus later on.
This was the most outrageous sale he had in his long life.
"Two million, huh?" Chu Yang nodded. It appeared that he had to make several detours along the way.
But more than that, an urgent obligation held him in place before he could ever complete what he had in mind.

There was an obvious question in the face of the old slave trader but he obliged in the request and kept his thoughts to himself.
"Right this way, young master Chu. Please follow me." Thus, another shower of spirit stones fell down like a flood for the umpteenth time today.
"If the next batch of slaves would come in time, you only have to send them to the Chu Clan. I shall pay for every man, woman, or child that you have for sale."
With these words, Chu Yang left the slave house. Although his intention was good, it was inescapable that he could also do harm in consequence.
One possible result in his actions would be the increase in the slavery business.
The slave masters would do everything they can to find more people to capture since there was an open order for them but Chu Yang could only do what he can.
He did not believe that killing these slave masters would solve anything. Everything should start at the top. There should be a law that prohibited the lawful activity of slave trading and the like.
"Should i perhaps run to become the City Lord of this place?" Chu Yang mused seriously because he wanted to eradicate this inhumane practice forever.

"Who goes there?! This is the property of Chu and anyone who comes in without an invite shall be killed on the spot!" A stalwart gatekeeper in the Chu Clan roared fiercely.
He could see that there were innumerable lines of carriages that slowly made their way to the tall gates of the clan.
Torches and fire lanterns were lit to better scout for any intruders whatsoever. Nevertheless, this stalwart gatekeeper was not shrouded by fear at all. This place was the mighty Chu Clan.
He had spent countless vigils to guard this place and never has he seen an enemy brave enough to face them head on.
"Open the gates! I am Chu Yang, son of Elder Chu Cangsheng." Chu Yang shouted and stepped down from the grand carriage in the front. The winged wolves seemed specially terrifying in the darkness of the night.
"Young master Chu Yang?" The stalwart gatekeeper asked in surprise.
If one would ask him who was the most infamous person in the clan right now then would not take a moment to state the name of this very person.
His broken marriage agreement and his succeeding stupidity was a tale of caution unto anyone who sought a good life within the four corners of the Chu Clan.
"It is indeed i. Open the gates. These people are all my slaves." Chu Yang waved a hand at the myriad people in attendance.
They wore a set of different clothes and guise which depicted diverse cultures in the dozens. It was obvious that they were captured in the farthest reaches known to cultivators.
The more unusual a person was, the better the prices they would render the slave traders once they were sold cleanly.
"I... I... I need to consult Elder Chu Cangsheng, young master Chu Yang. This is beyond what i can decide." The stalwart gatekeeper bowed slightly before instantly disappearing in place.
The huge gates remained closed shut for anyone's entrance or exit. Flying beyond this obvious barrier would be also stupid.
One should know that there were defensive formations in place that would burn, cut, or freeze anyone stupid enough to try this dumb maneuver.

At an extravagant courtyard that was filled with history and vigor, a handsome man could be seen toying with his food.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Please! No! I trusted you, Elder Chu Cangsheng! Please don't do this to me!" A woman was openly begging her captor.
She was already half naked and the torn garments of her robes laid in pieces on the floor. Her fate was sealed behind the closed doors of this private sanctum.
"Come on, girl. Don't be that stupid. Did you really believe that i have taken you in as my personal disciple because of your talent? Look at yourself!
You were born to be fucked on a daily basis." The handsome man laughed maniacally. If one took a closer look, one could see that this man had almost 99% facial similarity to Chu Yang.
This was of course no other than his father who gave him more than 1,000 half brothers and sisters combined.
It was easy to notice why this handsome man has been able to achieve such a large feat. Chu Cangsheng loved to take his women against their will.
For him, women were meant to be conquered.
"It has been too long since I've last taken a virgin on my bed. You will satisfy my thirst tonight, Xiao Lingyu."
Chu Cangsheng grinned and his handsome face turned wicked in the flickering candles.
"NOOOOOOOOO!" The woman named Xiao Lingyu planted herself at the farthest corner of the room but alas, escape was nigh impossible at this moment.
Her captor took a few steps and was about to undress thereafter.
"KNOCK!"
"KNOCK!"
"KNOCK!" Three hurried knocks disturbed this lewd non consensual picture.
