Many people were leaving the city, forming a long queue.
Wanjian Manor mobilized a large number of people this time. In addition to Lu Chen and others, Bai Shaojie, the young master of the manor, also volunteered to join the training team.
Bai Shaojie led a team of ten people, including himself.
The one with the highest cultivation level is Bai Shaojie himself.
Jianyu then led Lu Chen and the others.
Leaving the city was quick, but entering required identity checks. Soon, Lu Chen and his group had exited the city gate and were all surprised to see the long queue of people waiting to enter.
These people who came to the city were no longer glamorous.
Many of them were injured, some even on the verge of death, and had to be carried away.
Of course, the most eye-catching were those who had gained a lot from this trip out of the city, each carrying a huge amount of spoils.
The corpses and limbs of various monsters, and the precious materials from their bodies.
These are all very valuable; you can sell them directly after entering the city to exchange for spirit stones or various other cultivation resources.
These monster materials can be used to make weapons, armor, and even for alchemy and crafting. They have great uses.
Monsters are treasures from head to toe.
Even blood and animal flesh contain spiritual energy, and eating them can strengthen the body.
If it's a more precious spirit beast, the effect will be much better.
"Huh? There's a live monster here!"
Looking over, Lu Chen and the others noticed a gigantic deer-like monster at the back of the group. This monster was as tall as three people, and someone was riding on its back.
The others stood guard beside him.
This giant deer was covered in wounds, and its four hooves were chained together with heavy chains, so it could only move in small, inching steps.
The others in the group were all very cautious, constantly telling each other not to get too close.
"It seems this team has had a good haul this time, actually capturing a Spirit-Horned Giant Deer! That thing is incredibly valuable! Especially those enormous spirit horns!"
A hint of envy appeared on Bai Shaojie's face as he stared at the giant spirit-horned deer for a long time.
"This is just a level two demon beast, and besides, this deer isn't a very aggressive demon beast to begin with. It shouldn't be that difficult, right?" His subordinates were a little doubtful.
Bai Shaojie explained, "These Spirit Horned Giant Deer are not easy to catch. First, they are monsters that move in groups. Second, they are extremely cautious and will flee at the slightest disturbance. Of course, the most important point is that they run away too fast. When they run with those four long hooves, even flying on a sword is not a guarantee that you can catch up!"
Lu Chen glanced at the giant deer with spirit horns. After hearing Bai Shaojie's explanation, he immediately felt that this thing was not much different from ordinary deer.
It's simply that it's bigger, has more meat, and is more valuable.
"As expected, demonic beasts originally evolved from ordinary wild animals; their inherent nature hasn't changed much!"
Lu Chen stopped looking.
Suddenly, a commotion broke out in the line next to them.
Upon closer inspection, everyone recognized the giant spirit-horned deer. It seemed to have become uneasy upon seeing the massive city wall. It had been moving forward slowly and obediently, but suddenly went berserk.
The giant stag with spirit horns raised its front hooves high and stomped down heavily forward.
One of the people at the front of the group didn't have time to react before being trampled by a hoof, his chest pierced through and he died instantly. Then, the giant horned deer kept charging left and right, trying to escape the place.
It was clear that these people were losing control of the situation.
Suddenly, a figure descended from the sky and landed directly on the back of the giant spirit-horned deer.
In an instant, the giant deer fell silent, unable to move, as if frozen in place.
Everyone was stunned.
Lu Chen smiled as he looked at the stunningly beautiful figure, who seemed like a fairy descending to earth.
It was Jian Xue who made the move.
Jian Xue simply stepped on the back of the Spirit Horned Deer, and completely subdued it, leaving it with no power to resist.
"Thank you, senior!"
The people in the group were overjoyed and immediately bowed deeply, expressing their immense gratitude.
If Jian Xue hadn't suddenly intervened, who knows how much chaos this Spirit Horned Deer would have caused at the city gate.
If the situation isn't brought under control in time, and the guards on the city wall take action, things will get really bad. Not only will the Spirit Horned Deer be lost, but all of them will be arrested and punished.
Jian Xue remained calm.
"I advise you to kill this deer before carrying it into the city. With your strength, you simply can't control it! Or, if you have the ability, you can sell it directly to the Hundred Treasures Pavilion and have them send someone to take it over!"
After saying that, Jian Xue lightly stomped her foot, and she soared into the sky, returning to Lu Chen's side.
The giant stag with spirit horns collapsed instantly, its four hooves on the ground, unable to move any further.
Even so, the group dared not cause any more trouble. They knew that they would not be allowed to enter the city in this way, and now they could only wait outside the city.
Then send someone to negotiate with Baibaoge. Once Baibaoge agrees to buy it and is willing to come out of the city to take it over, the matter will be settled.
Why can't we enter the city?
Lu Chen was a little puzzled, because there were living demonic beasts in Wanjian Manor. That black wind leopard was much more powerful than the spirit-horned giant deer, and it was also difficult to tame.
Bai Shaojie laughed and said, "Uncle-Master, you don't know this, but if you want to bring a demon beast into the city, you have to put it on a beast taming collar to prevent it from hurting people. But how precious are beast taming collars? Those people are not strong enough to have any chance of owning one!"
"Animal taming ring?"
Lu Chen was slightly surprised.
"It's a magical artifact used to tame demonic beasts. It can change size, and when placed on the head of a demonic beast, it can influence its soul, making it obedient!"
"I see!"
Lu Chen immediately regretted it; if he had known this would happen, he should have prepared some of these things.
"However, this thing is too expensive. Our Ten Thousand Swords Manor only has a few! In the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, this thing can even sell for tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones each!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen frowned immediately.
It's really quite expensive.
Lu Chen glanced at his Qiankun Ring; he could actually afford it.
"Should we go back and buy a few before heading out? Wouldn't it be impressive to tame a few monsters as mounts?"
The thought had just crossed Lu Chen's mind when Jian Xue smiled calmly and said, "This thing isn't really that useful. It's very difficult for a strong demon beast to be tamed with a beast-taming ring; you have to defeat it first! As for weak demon beasts, even if you tame them, what good are they? They're just easier to sell! Killing them and selling them for materials doesn't really make much difference!"
"Now that you mention it, it does make sense!"
Lu Chen thought about it and realized it was true, so he gave up.
Let's go!
Jian Yu, who had been silent until now, suddenly shot straight into the sky.
Lu Chen and the others immediately followed, with Bai Shaojie and the others close behind.
"Uncle-Master, this time when we leave the city, we'll go to Black Wind Valley first. The monsters and environment there are perfect for your training!"
