Chapter 528: Chapter 520: Skillful Diplomatic Tactics
“You just don’t understand! These two fox cubs may look small, but they are not ordinary foxes. You will naturally know once you start raising them. I had originally planned to buy you a tall green wolf to serve as your mount, but unfortunately, I didn’t come across a suitable one.”
“So that’s the case! Then I will take good care of them and raise them well.”
Wang Wanyan looked at the two fox cubs, and her naturally kind heart couldn’t help but be filled with maternal affection.
She poured a little water and fed them with soaked food using chopsticks.
The next day, early in the morning, Qin Niu went out and bought two handsome horses and food for the fox cubs. The price of horses was really not expensive, two horses that were even taller and better in quality than the Black Mare Horse, only costing a total of more than two hundred and sixty silver money.
Had it been in Black Tiger City, buying a single Black Mare Horse without spending a thousand silver money would be unthinkable.
The Myriad Beast Gang was the origin of many beast pets and had formed an industry advantage, with prices so low they were beyond imagination. However, the prices for those beast pets with special bloodlines or abilities were frighteningly high.
Qin Niu returned with the horses, and Wang Wanyan couldn’t wait to feed the two hungry fox cubs that were chirping and scrambling for food.
After soaking it in warm water, she fed them.
Seeing them eat with gusto, she was finally put at ease.
“This food isn’t cheap; it cost me a total of more than seventy silver money for three bags, an exorbitant price indeed.”
Even though Qin Niu had substantial wealth, spending money like water while abroad made him worry about depleting his resources.
Nevertheless, he did not hesitate to spend the necessary silver money.
Having finished their specialized food, the two little foxes seemed much calmer and cuddled together to sleep. The night before, due to extreme hunger, they had been climbing all over, making a constant ruckus.
Qin Niu glanced at the Green Demon Bee King, which was still evolving. The dark aura enveloping it seemed to have grown even denser.
On the other hand, the Green Ox showed little effect after consuming the Demon Core.
It continued its usual activities.
That was a stark contrast to the time it consumed the Ancient Banyan Tree Blood.
Upon checking its attributes, Qin Niu was pleasantly surprised to find that the Green Ox had advanced from Grade Six to Grade Seven. However, almost none of its attributes had changed, except for a significant increase in energy.
Skills, talents, and key attributes like lifespan remained unchanged.
Its lifespan seemed fixed at 9999 years and not increasing.
To be honest, having nearly ten thousand years of lifespan was already quite remarkable.
“Moo~!”
When the Green Ox saw its master approaching, it leaped out of the stall in high spirits and affectionately rubbed its head against Qin Niu’s body.
One could still feel the significant improvement in its strength.
The aura it emitted was much stronger than before.
Its movements had also become quicker.
“If one Demon Core only allows you to advance by one grade, then I would really be crying.”
Qin Niu petted its head and noticed that fine sparks were still flashing on its horns, indicating it was still refining and absorbing the Demon Core.
“Let’s set off!”
He led the two Black Mare Horses out. After a night’s rest, they were lively and energetic.
The elder who was managing the post station helped him with the saddles.
“Master Qin, here is the payment for the two Dragon Colt horses you bought, totaling two hundred and sixty silver money. Please accept it.”
“What does this mean?”
Qin Niu had bought the horses at the horse market outside. Why was the post station returning the money to him?
These tall horses were known by a resounding nickname, Dragon Colt.
A true Dragon Horse was generally chestnut-colored, with an odd shape and a long neck like that of a dragon.
These Dragon Colts could be a hybrid breed cultivated by the Myriad Beast Gang, a sub-species. Their pulling strength, endurance, and running speed were all quite impressive, much better than the so-called Sweaty Precious Horse.
Such superior horses were almost freely available here, and at very low prices.
