Xiào Mu shook his head to shake away the terrible image in his mind and went back to his room to buy clothes online. After thinking about it, he bought another 200 grams of peony. When his spiritual power is restored tomorrow, he will try to find an opportunity to make some mid-grade healing pills, which he can eat and sell at the same time. However, about how to sell is a problem, as he can’t do it like the incident before this. He hadn’t noticed that there is a guide’s pheromones left on the medicine. If he knew it, he would definitely not dare to set up a stall openly.

Sitting on a stool and waiting for the clothes to be delivered, Xiào Mu checked online regarding channels for selling things. The transaction methods here are quite similar to his time on Earth. There are physical or online stores, mobile vendors, and auction houses selling precious items. Xiào Mu thought about it for a moment and inquired about the auction house. The page that popped up showed several auction houses. The top message read ‘Shocking! There is a Level A animal mecha in the auction house, with a transaction price of 80 million!’ There is a lot of news about successful auctions below the post.

Seeing this, Xiào Mu closed the page; auctions were too high-profile. He wants to make money by selling medicine, but he absolutely does not want to see news such as ‘Shocking! New medicine appear in the market!’. In particular, he has already said that he is not the maker and only has a handful of the medicine left in his hand. If similar medicines are sold in public, Leo will definitely find out; it is too easy to discover him through auction houses. If the research institute finds out about him, they will also know the existence of the mid-grade healing pill, and this kind of news will also attract their attention. For him, it is not safe.

Casually browsing the pages of selling channels, Xiào Mu’s eyes suddenly stopped at the word ‘black market’. Looking closely at the information about the ‘black market’, his eyes brightened slightly. ‘Black market’ is a trading market opened by the largest auction house ‘Shang Gong’. The black market provides trading venues for private craftsmen and mercenaries. It opens every Saturday night from 7.00 pm to 12.00 am. The identity of everyone who enters the black market is kept confidential. Entry tickets are 1,000 star coins each. When items are successfully traded, the black market will charge a handling fee which is 10% of the transaction price while the commodity tax is paid by the black market. Black market fees are high, but because of its confidentiality, the business is very good, and unexpected precious items often appear. Therefore, many wealthy people went there to sweep good things.

Xiào Mu felt very excited, and it was okay to him if the handling fee is a little bit more. He would just ask for a higher price, it’s fine as long as he could make money. He takes note of the address and opening time of the black market, and it didn’t take long before his clothes arrived. In the hallway, he perked up his ears to listen if there are any movements in the living room before moving down quietly. Xiào Mu didn’t see Zorn when he went downstairs, he breathed a sigh of relief and went out to pick up the courier.

When Xiào Mu returned to the house, he saw the tall man who was hugging Ren before this coming out of the room next to the study. He was wearing a black bathrobe, with red hic-keys1 on his exposed neck. His short hair was slightly damp, it was obvious that this man has just taken a shower. His facial features looked hard with defined lines. Even at this moment although his complexion is soft, he cannot hide his wildness, and his aura is very strong. Previously, Xiào Mu didn’t get to see this man’s appearance clearly. But now that he is facing him, he immediately remembered his identity; Lieutenant General Louis, Ren’s partner, Leo’s grandfather, and an ordinary person. The moment Xiào Mu thought of this, he subconsciously checked Louis’s red and blue bars. His spiritual power is 3,000 Level D, while his physical strength is 8,500 Level A. For sentinels, this value may not be particularly powerful, but for ordinary people, it is simply OP2.
