Chapter 364: Drive Them Out
"Our scales are valuable?"
Xie Liuyin could see that the doubt in Loulan's eyes was not fake, and she said in surprise: "Don't you know that for a divine beast like you, any thing on your body is an extremely precious treasure to people like us."
"If the scales shed by an adult dragon like you were used to make armor, they would be considered top-grade immortal artifacts. Outside, they would be sold for tens of millions of immortal crystals."
When Loulan heard this, anger suddenly appeared in his eyes: "But the people who came to collect scales from us didn't say that. They said that these scales are useless and they just grind them into powder to feed the fairy beasts!"
Xie Liuyin's eyes widened: "You've been deceived, how could dragon scales be useless?"
She hurriedly asked, "Who are the people who came to Yunlei Sea to collect dragon scales? Now that they are here, you can't give away the dragon scales so easily!"
Afraid that Lou Lan would not believe him, Xie Liuyin continued, "There are also several large auction houses in the fairy world. You can go to the auction house to inquire about the price of the dragon scale armor, or just ask about the price of the scales. Then you will know how precious these things are."
Lou Lan's face had already darkened: "I will go and ask. Thank you for today's matter. I will send the scales to you later."
After saying that, she left quickly without waiting for Xie Liuyin to react.
Because of the comfortable life in the fairy world, the dragon clan has been busy traveling in recent years and has not paid much attention to the situation in the fairy world.
The dragons who stayed in the tribe were very xenophobic and unwilling to contact the outside world. As a result, they had no idea of the price of dragon scales outside, and no dragon asked what the taken dragon scales were used for.
Loulan doesn't care about fairy crystals. If they want such things, they can just go and dig a fairy crystal mine themselves.
But she cares whether she has been deceived!
Loulan went all the way to find a clan elder with whom she was close, who turned out to be her third great-grandmother.
When the grandmother learned of Loulan's intention, her expression was not very good. She told Loulan: "Don't spread this matter for now. I will send someone to find out clearly before you speak."
Since Loulan came to see her, it meant that she trusted the other party. After hearing what the Third Ancestor said, she nodded in agreement.
The grandmother acted quickly. On the third day after Loulan gave the scales to Xie Liuyin, she found Loulan and told him about her discovery.
"You are right, our scales are indeed very valuable outside." said the grandmother.
The people she sent out had already asked several auction houses, and they found out that a single dragon scale would cost at least 100,000 immortal crystals. As for a complete set of dragon scale armor, it would cost millions of immortal crystals.
Although the price was a bit higher than outside because it was an auction house, those who came to collect dragon scales took away several carts of dragon scales, but they were only given 100 immortal crystals!
Moreover, the people sent by the grandmother misunderstood the immortals who came to collect the dragon scales, and they also went to investigate the forces behind the other party and where the dragon scales in their hands had gone.
It was eventually discovered that most of these dragon scales were transformed into various immortal weapons and immortal clothes, and were sold at high prices in a store called Longbao Pavilion.
Because that store sold only things related to dragons, it was mistakenly believed to be a store run by the dragons. No one in the fairy world dared to mess with it, and it made a fortune.
Dragons never care about the scales they replace, and the only important reverse scale is also kept by themselves.
As for the other scales, they just disliked the space they took up. If someone wanted to buy them, they would just sell them without caring too much.
They didn't care how many fairy crystals the scales could be sold for, but they were really annoyed by the deception of that group of people.
It was obvious that they were going to use them to refine immortal tools, but they lied and claimed that they were going to feed immortal beasts. They also belittled the usefulness of their scales and sent them away at a low price!
The dragons who knew the truth were extremely angry, and several dragons wanted to rush out and destroy the Dragon Treasure Pavilion.
But at the critical moment, the Third Ancestor stopped them: "We are too naive at this moment and have been fooled by others. We have signed a fairy contract with them in the past few years. Even if they deceived us and used the dragon scales for other purposes, we have no right to say anything."
"But from today on, we will no longer sell dragon scales to the outside world. When those people come here again, we will just drive them out."
The dragons were unwilling to accept this, as they had never suffered such a big loss since their birth. But the Third Ancestor held a high position in the clan, and once she spoke, the rest of the dragons had to obey even if they were not happy.
But they didn't know, but Loulan did. Their great-grandmother was not the kind of person who would let others take advantage of her while her own people suffered losses.
After all, there will definitely be something interesting to watch later.
Xie Liuyin never expected that someone would be in trouble just because of a few words he said.
At this moment, she was happily holding the dragon scales given by Loulan and carefully cleaning them, planning to wait until she could make some friends with immortals who could refine immortal artifacts, and then ask them to help forge a set of dragon scale armor for her.
The scales of Loulan are a beautiful white color. In the sunlight, the scales sparkle with colorful light, which is simply dazzling.
The sword spirit that flew out of space saw this scene and felt sour again: "It's just a few dragon scales, why do you care? You look like you can't wait to kiss them."
Even such a powerful spirit sword as his had not received such treatment. When he had chosen Xie Liuyin as the new master, she had been unhappy at first.
The sword spirit became more and more unhappy the more he thought about it. Seeing that Xie Liuyin was still paying attention to him, he snorted angrily, turned around and dived into the space, ignoring her.
Xie Liuyin had long been accustomed to the sword spirit's displeased temperament, especially when it came to the fairyland. This kid was determined to find his former master and show off to the other party how well he was living now.
So he guided Xie Liuyin to be nicer to him in both overt and covert ways, so that when the time comes, he would show off and have something to say.
It’s a pity that Xie Liuyin didn’t cooperate much, so the sword spirit became angry again and again.
Star Map's scale replacement lasted for a full seven days. This was his first time replacing scales, so it took so long.
After the scales changed, he asked his mother to check it out. After finding that there was nothing wrong, she hurried to find Xie Liuyin.
"Sister Liuyin, look, I have grown up a lot!" Xingtu ran to Xie Liuyin happily.
Xie Liuyin took a look and it was true. Xingtu was a palm taller than before, and his facial features were more relaxed than before.
Xingtu also said: "I am also much bigger than before, let me show you."
Without waiting for Xie Liuyin to answer, Xingtu turned around and revealed the dragon's body.
If the original star map was shaped like a long snake, then the current star map really has some of the prototype of a dragon.
But it is still far from a real dragon.
Xie Liuyin admired it for a while before the star map turned back into human form with satisfaction.
He patted his chest and said to Xie Liuyin: "I heard that you like our scales. Sister Liuyin, don't worry, I will buy all the scales you want in the future!"
After he finished speaking, he stuffed the scales he had replaced to Xie Liuyin.
