When Beauty Meets Beasts

Chapter 314: Are You Playing With Me?!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After walking for another day and night, they finally saw the legendary City of 10,000 Beasts.

This city was even larger and more majestic than one could imagine. From afar, it looked like a huge lion lying dormant on the beast continent. It looked like it was about to bite at any time.

The City of 10,000 Beasts was divided into the inner and outer cities.

There were no walls in the outer city. The people living here were all weak civilians and beasts. The nobles all lived in the inner city. The palace and temple were in the middle of the city.

The layout was a little similar to Sun City, but it was larger and there were more beasts in the city.

The outer city was divided into four areas. Each area had its own faction. Any outsider who entered the outer city had to report their identity to the local faction and hand over a certain number of crystals before they were allowed to stay. Otherwise, they would be chased out.

As for the requirements to enter the inner city, they were even stricter. Not only did they have to hand over a large number of crystals, but they also had to have the strength of at least four stars.

The general said, “Of course, if you have someone in the inner city who can be your guarantor, you don’t need crystals or star souls to enter the inner city.”

However, in the strictly hierarchical City of 10,000 Beasts, it was no easier for ordinary beasts to obtain the recognition of noble beasts than to hand over crystals and advance to four stars.

The only beast Huanhuan knew in the City of 10,000 Beasts should be He Guang, but he was still leading troops at the Black River. It was impossible for him to come and vouch for her.

She could forget about entering the inner city. She only planned to walk around the outer city.

Ah Jiang had been to the City of 10,000 Beasts a few times in the past. He knew the general situation there.

He said, “There are a total of four forces in the outer city. They are the Oath Bird Army, the Golden Leaf Chamber of Commerce, the Church of God, and the 10,000 Beast Alliance. I personally suggest that we go to the territory of the 10,000 Beast Alliance.”

Huanhuan was puzzled. “Why? Because the 10,000 Beast Alliance is the strongest?”

“No, the 10,000 Beast Alliance should be the weakest among the four forces, but they’re the most friendly to commoners and beasts. If outsiders wish to stay, they only need to pay 30 low-level crystals. But the other three forces are not so friendly. Not only do they charge double the crystals, but they might also force you to be their slave. Especially a delicate female like you. Once you fall into their hands, you’ll definitely be played to death.”

Ah Jiang deliberately made it sound serious, wanting to scare Huanhuan.

Unfortunately, Huanhuan was not frightened at all. She thought for a moment and said, “I want to take a look at the territory of the Golden Leaf Chamber of Commerce.”

The general immediately frowned. “The Golden Leaf Chamber of Commerce is a group of cunning beasts! As long as we enter their territory, we’ll definitely be ruthlessly exploited until we’re completely useless. Only then will we be let go and chased out!”

Huanhuan said, “It’s okay. We’re just going to take a look. If it’s not suitable, we can go to the 10,000 Beast Alliance.”

Ah Jiang was actually quite unwilling to accompany her to the territory of the Golden Chamber of Commerce, but the lotus was staring at him. If he dared to refuse, his head would definitely be bitten off.

He could only submit and walk toward the Golden Leaf Chamber of Commerce with Huanhuan and Xing Chen.

Xing Chen had no objections to going to the territory of any faction. In any case, it made no difference to him.

The territory of the Golden Leaf Chamber of Commerce was considered the most prosperous in the entire outer city. All the merchants in the outer city were gathered here. The streets were filled with animal hides. There were all kinds of strange goods on the animal hides. The beasts squatted at the side and shouted to sell them.

Further in, there were many shops standing on both sides of the street.

Although there were still many unreasonable aspects to the design and layout of these shops, it was already very good in this era.

Huanhuan walked and looked around. She found everything here new and interesting.

There were many beasts buying things on the street. There were beasts who lived locally and also beasts who came from other places.

Huanhuan was wearing a veil, but as a female, she looked very eye-catching among the male beasts.

Xing Chen, who was following behind her, was wearing a black robe. At first glance, he did not seem to have any presence, but if one got closer, one would immediately sense the pressure of a powerhouse emanating from him.

Therefore, the area within a meter of him was almost empty. Other than Huanhuan, no other beasts dared to approach him.

In fact, ever since the three of them stepped into the territory of the Golden Leaf Chamber of Commerce, they immediately attracted the attention of some people.

When Huanhuan stopped in front of a shop and was about to go in to take a look, four strong beasts appeared and surrounded the three of them.

The leader of the beasts was a man with arched eyes. He looked Huanhuan up and down and smiled maliciously. “Are you new here?”

Ah Jiang quickly replied, “Yes, yes!”

“Then you should know the rules here, right? After you come in, hand over a third of all your supplies!”

Ah Jiang was penniless. He could only look at Huanhuan for help.

In any case, she was the one who said she wanted to come here. Even if they had to pay, she should be the one paying.

Huanhuan took out a small hide bag and poured out the green crystals inside. She counted them and found that there were 10 of them. She picked out three and gave them to him. “Here, a third of what you wanted.”

The man with the arched eyes was instantly unhappy. His face darkened. “Are you kidding me?!”

It was only three green crystals. Even a beggar would have more!

Huanhuan looked innocent. “But you said you wanted a third. I gave you a third of what I have. If you think it’s not enough, I’ll just add more.”

She added another green crystal. That made four green crystals.

The man with slanted eyes swept the green crystals from her hand to the ground and scolded angrily, “You’re really shameless. Tie these three insensible people up and take them away!”

The other three companions could tell that Arched Eyes had actually taken a fancy to this little female. They tactfully attacked Ah Jiang and Xing Chen, specially leaving the little female for Arched Eyes to do it himself.

Ah Jiang was trembling in fear. He could only crouch on the ground and hug his head to beg for mercy.

He complained crazily in his heart. Lin Huanhuan was really a troublemaker. With just a few words, she had incited the other party’s hatred. Now, the three of them would be beaten up!

The man with arched eyes had actually been eyeing the little female’s fair and delicate wrist for a long time. At this moment, he could finally make a move. He immediately grabbed her wrist!

Unexpectedly, before he could touch Huanhuan, he was sent flying by Little Green!

As for his three companions, they were also knocked to the ground by Xing Chen.

Xing Chen moved too quickly. No one present saw how he did it. A cold wind swept past, and the three aggressive beasts fell to the ground. They could not get up again.

Little Green tied its vine around Arched Eyes and dragged him back roughly. It threw him out, then dragged him back again…

Huanhuan bent down to pick up the green crystal that had fallen to the ground. She wiped the dust off it and muttered, “You don’t even want money. Are you stupid?!”
