Chapter 267 First Encounter at the Divine-Demonic Black Market: One Glimpse of the Human Emperor Leads to a Lifetime of Regret!

Envious?

Lin Chen had invested a lot of resources in nurturing them as well.

Basically, Lin Chen had returned everything he had taken from them in the past, now that he was powerful, and even doubled it.

That was Lin Chen!

If you helped him when he was in trouble, he would repay you twice over when he prospered!

Of course, this was also Lin Chen, when he had sufficient resources himself.

He even gifted some legendary or epic-level pets to Long Yandao, Alikis, the Queen of the Night, Yang Liuxin, Bai Shuyi, and Xue Mo.

After all, they had gone through thick and thin together.

Among these people, the most surprised was Xue Mo, who never expected to receive an epic-level pet herself…

"Lin Chen, you wouldn't have harmed Meng Yao and the others and now have your eyes on me and the boss, right?"

Bai Shuyi joked in front of everyone, "And Ling Xiaoya also has a pet? Good heavens, you beast, you didn't even spare your own grand-niece!"

"How dare you speak to your grand-uncle like that?"

Sun Lingming reprimanded her.

He had also received an epic-level pet.

A'Niu and Ye Liuli naturally had theirs as well. A'Niu even laughed and said, "Little junior brother, you wouldn't have emptied the Transcendental pet market in Tu City, would you?"

"Almost."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "At least all the Transcendental pets from the animal eggs accumulated in the black market for more than ten years have been bought out by me! These things aren't cheap, but they aren't too expensive for me. I don't have any pet equipment anymore, so everyone should rely on their own efforts. After all, there are plenty of resources now, and you can buy them yourselves in the black market, which is still quite safe. Just, try not to go alone."

Lin Chen was right.

This wave had indeed swept away all the mythical pet eggs accumulated in the Divine-Demonic Battlefield's black market for at least a decade.

He had also spent Radiant Sacred Crystals to buy many epic and legendary pets.

These things were not cheap.

Just look at the Feng Yuling siblings and you'd know.

Then Lin Chen said to Long Yandao, "Use all the military expenses sent by Her Majesty the Empress this time to recruit mercenaries, but don't make too much of a fuss. Just recruit a ten-thousand-man regiment, and then throw them all to the Second Saint Pass. As for the soldiers of our three races, everyone should relax and find opportunities to become stronger, just tell them to be careful. The main army will continue to train as a whole. There are demon beasts and hunting grounds in the mountains nearby, which we can use to train our troops!"

"Recruit mercenaries? Is that reliable?"

Long Yandao said in a muffled voice, "Those not of our race are sure to have different intentions!"

"It's reliable, the mercenaries will sign a soul contract with us… wait a moment, two senior brothers, Alikis, you should go together too!" Lin Chen instructed, then bid farewell to everyone again.

Soon, a notice appeared in Tu City that the human race was recruiting mercenaries.

Lin Chen, wearing a different mask and disguise, was also in the crowd.

Coincidentally, he sensed Feng Yuling and Feng Cailing again.

"Sister, the human race is recruiting mercenaries, let's go quickly!"

"Brother, I don't really want to go… I want to go to the black market again, in case I meet Brother Mu Chen again?"

"Brother Mu Chen might have already left. You've been going every night for the past few days, and the Radiant Sacred Crystals have been wasted… you usually feel bad for spending a few Radiant Sacred Crystals, but now you're so generous? Going to the black market every night, doing nothing but looking for your Brother Mu Chen!"

At this moment, Lin Chen clearly felt Feng Cailing blush slightly, then mutter in a low voice, "Then I won't go, okay? But I don't want to be a mercenary either!"

The little girl was angry.

Lin Chen smiled helplessly upon hearing this. He wanted to say hello, but he sensed Feng Yuling lean close to his sister's ear and whisper, "Sister, let me tell you, Brother Mu Chen might be a human expert… Why do I say that? Because that night, I remember a small detail about Mu Chen. He said to me, 'I keep my word,' do you remember? We usually say 'I keep my word,' only the human race would habitually add 'I' in front of those five words, to emphasize that they were born as a human!"

At this moment, Lin Chen had a face full of question marks…

Did I?

It seems like that's really the case…

"Really?"

Feng Cailing's eyes lit up when she heard this.

Then, she obediently followed her brother and found Long Yandao, registering as a human mercenary.

Seeing this scene, Lin Chen walked away inconspicuously.

However, what Lin Chen didn't know was that Feng Yuling, who was always very concerned about his sister, had found a famous blind man in the black market these past two days. This person had quite a background.

He came from the Ancient Tree Human Race.

Known as the Seer Fario!

Then, Feng Yuling found him and spent a Radiant Sacred Crystal to inquire about him and his sister's beloved Brother Mu Chen, but in the end, he only received a proverb, which was for his sister Feng Cailing.

[First encounter at the Divine-Demonic Black Market: One glimpse of the Human Emperor leads to a lifetime of regret!]

Human Emperor!

At that time, Feng Yuling was shocked by Lin Chen's true identity!

Then, he also paid some fees to learn about the history and current situation of the human race. In the end, the very clever Feng Yuling's first reaction was… he must never reveal Brother Mu Chen's true identity to anyone!

Not even his sister!

And Seer Fario, after seeing this proverb, only said to Feng Yuling, "Heaven's secrets must not be revealed, otherwise it will lead to great disaster," and disappeared on the spot.

This made Feng Yuling feel even more that Lin Chen's identity and background were not simple.

It must be kept secret!

Therefore, the words he used to persuade Feng Cailing were just a far-fetched reason he made up himself.

He didn't want his sister to ruin her life.

But, he couldn't reveal Lin Chen's identity… Therefore, when Feng Yuling saw that the human race was recruiting mercenaries, he immediately took his sister to sign up.

At the same time, the Jiuli Realm.

In the ancestral land of the Demon Race.

Jiuli Demon Lord Li Tan, brought Li Guang to a giant demon blade.

This demon blade, like a chasm, was directly pinned to a mass of chaos.

"Father, Uncle!"

A female voice rang out.

"Li Yao, why are you in the ancestral land? Could it be that you have completed the ancestral land trial?" Li Tan was a little surprised.

His little daughter had grown up in a blink of an eye.

With two big braids, and a pair of horns on her head that were very beautiful.

"Yes, Father, I have completed the trial and can go to the Divine-Demonic Battlefield with Father… Father, why did you and Uncle come back? Could it be that the Divine-Demonic Battlefield is closed?" Li Yao said playfully.

How could the Divine-Demonic Battlefield be closed?

"Let's begin!" Li Tan said.

"Okay!"

Li Guang came to the hilt of the demon blade.

In the next moment, he sent Lin Chen's demonic thoughts, which he had sensed that night, onto the demon blade.

Boom!

The entire ancestral land was shaking!
