”Wolf King, I hope you can save father. And if you do, the Doomblade Imperial Family and the Celestial Sword Empire will remember this favor.” The crown prince bowed his head solemnly.

Cale was surprised at the crown prince's solemn respect. And he inwardly admired him for knowing when to be overbearing and when to yield.

”Your highness, please lift your head up. This one does not deserve your bow. Don't worry, I will make sure that I will successfully concoct this antidote.” Cale hurriedly supported the crown prince.

The latter forced a smile before he gestured Seira to leave the room with him. Seira glanced at Cale's side profile before she went out of the room with the crown prince.

After seeing that both of them were already outside, Cale excitedly took out the Holy Nourishing Crystal from his storage space.

- Ding!

- Do you want to exchange this Holy Nourishing Crystal?

Asteria's cold and emotionless voice resounded inside his head while a prompt similarly appeared in front of him.

The moment Cale clicked the word 'yes', the Holy Nourishing Crystal in his hand vanished magically.

- Ding!

Cale smiled from ear to ear after hearing the familiar prompt. It was very long ago since he had last heard the familiar 'cha-ching' sound when he exchanges for Black Coins.

He then went to the Store tab and clicked on the Slaves category first.

Rows of cards appeared in front of him, depicting the pictures and profile of several humans and non-humans.

Cale squinted his eyes after seeing a familiar slave that he had seen before, but he was unable to buy.

* Aurora (Human)

- 35 000 000 000 Black Coins

- A human empress who transcended humanity and achieved immortality. She broke the shackles of mortality and fought with the Demon Immortal Azazel for one week. She injured Azazel severely and made him go sleep for countless millennia, but this came with a heavy price. She lost her immortal body and injured her nascent immortal soul. And in order to preserve her life, she used her remaining powers to seal her body in a block of freezingly cold ice made from her immortal blood in hopes that she will gain back her immortality.

Cale thought for a moment before discarding the thoughts of buying her. He was in need of strong helpers that could help him against the demons who were eyeing their world with malicious eyes, but it was not the right place to buy something from 'The Black Market'. It would be very hard to explain to both Seira and the crown prince about the sudden appearance of someone inside the emperor's chamber. So he held himself back and closed the Store tab decisively.

”Asteria, give me one Heavenly Restoration Wine.”

* Heavenly Restoration Wine

- 1 000 000 000 Black coins

- Do you wish to continue your purchase?

Cale unhurriedly clicked the word 'yes'.

After a blink of an eye, a wine gourd made from beast skin and other types of materials hovered in midair. It then slowly landed on Cale's hands.

”Asteria, will this really work?” Cale could not help but ask, but he did not hear any answers from Asteria. He only heard her coldly harrumphed.

Cale produced a wry smile and slowly opened the wine gourd.

A refreshing aroma assaulted his nostrils, making him feel invigorated. Even just the smell already had the effects of calming one's mind and invigorating the soul, how much more if someone drinks it?

Now he understood Asteria's disdain. Such a wine was indeed a heavenly treasure!

The closed eyes of the emperor suddenly sprung open, producing a bone-chilling aura that covered the entire room.
