“Okay,” Tingting nodded.
After having left the Xia Family, she realized that the people of the South Continent had different living habits from those of the Zhongzhou people.
Neither of them were willing to accommodate each other.
“If you need anything, don’t hesitate to come find me downstairs,” said the woman wrapped in wool said as she bowed to Tingting.
“Xiaoxi, shall we go up and talk?”
The woman wrapped in wool said awkwardly, “You must be tired from travelling. I don’t want to disturb you. Why don’t you go up to your attic, take a bath, change your clothes, and rest for the day. Let’s talk tomorrow!”
“Al…alright!” Tingting headed to the attic.
Sure enough, everything she needed was upstairs.
Not only were there a living room, a practice room, and a bedroom, but also a toilet.
“Xiaoxi is really hospitable!”
Without much suspicion, Tingting headed upstairs to freshen up and rest.
Inside a meeting room in the house, the woman wrapped in wool and the two young men sat on the guest seats and slowly sipped from their tea cups.
There was another woman sitting opposite them.
“This one is not bad! She’s a half-step Perfected Person, and is very beautiful too. Granny Tan, we want ten times the price.”
Granny Tan rolled her eyes. “Ten times? A half-step Perfected Person is more difficult to control. Besides, where is this girl from? I don’t want her to cause trouble for us!”
“Ten times the price is our minimum. The girl is just a South Continent native. Where else can she be from? If you sell her to the elders of the Sacred Ground as a concubine, you can make a lot of money!”
“I’ll offer you three times at most! What if her family comes to destroy our shop?” Granny Tan raised her tea cup in front of her as she spoke slowly.
“Who would dare to destroy your shop in Luoyu City? This girl is younger than thirty and is already a half-step Perfected Person. Whoever marries her will have an additional master in their family.”
“Even if you don’t sell her, you can offer her up in the shop. Which man wouldn’t want to play with such a cute girl?”
“Especially those men of the Saint-level in the Spirit Manipulation Realm. How often do they get to play with someone who is a half-step Perfected Person? It’ll be such a prestige! That’s worth a lot!” The young man sitting at the side said with a smirk.
“Yes! Everyone would want to have a genius like her. It’s not easy to cultivate such a genius. The price should be even higher.”
“Granny, she’s a South Continent girl. How powerful can her family be?”
“I heard that Honghai Sacred Ground was occupied by the South Continent people.”
“That’s the Xia Family and the Mu Family. This girl’s surname is Liu. You can check if the Liu Family will be a threat to you first,” The woman wrapped in wool replied.
They wouldn’t reduce the price no matter what.
After this sale, they would leave to explore the world.
Though others may not know the origin of this girl, they had witnessed her walking out of the Xia Family.
The Xia Family’s symbol was even on her sleeve.
It was just that they had changed her clothes.
But they weren’t afraid of the Xia Family.
This was the Huanhai Sacred Ground.
After this sale, they would have made enough money.
“Hm…” Granny Tan thought for a moment.
She had watched the girl earlier, and the girl was indeed very beautiful in all aspects.

If she had such a beauty in her shop, it would definitely become the best shop in Luoyu City, or even the whole of Zhongzhou.
No other shop offered a beautiful Perfected Person.
Let alone one who was a genius.
She would be a big deal no matter where she went.
And if she was offered to customers?
There would be countless people flocking to her shop.
Not only would their shop become famous throughout the country, their income would naturally increase as well.
After calculating carefully, ten times the price was still reasonable.
“Alright then! But I need to inquire about the origin of this girl.”
Half an hour later, the transaction was completed. The two young men left with the woman wrapped in wool.
After that, two maids brought some broth upstairs for dinner.
Tingting did not suspect anything and soon fell asleep after drinking the broth.
“She’s so innocent and easy to take advantage of!”
Granny Tan felt a hint of regret after learning about this.
It was so easy to deceive this girl. The woman wrapped with wool must have taken her with almost no effort.
She had even given the woman ten prenatal stones.
What a big loss!
If she had known that this girl was so easy to deceive, she would have gotten someone to abduct the girl herself.
Granny Tan thought for a moment and said, “Wang Ming, bring someone here to take a look at her. Are there any more innocent girls from the South Continent… Forget it, I will settle this one first.”
If it was so easy to find gullible girls from the South Continent, the brothels would have been filled long ago.
It wasn’t easy!
“Don’t worry! Granny Tan, my pills and techniques will definitely make her wish for death and make it impossible for her to escape.”
A strong man who seemed to be in his thirties appeared beside Granny Tan.
He was very muscular and had a huge mole on his face, with a few long black hairs growing out from it.
Wang Ming smiled slyly, saliva leaking out from the corners of his mouth.
He took a sneak peek at that girl.
How amazing!
Not just her physical appearance and strength, but also her temperament.
She must be from an important family.
He would be very happy just touching such a goddess.
Let alone taming her into a “plaything”.
It would be both a physical and spiritual enjoyment.
“Don’t do anything to her in case a Sacred Ground elder ends up liking her. It’ll be too big a price to pay.”
“I’ll just touch her… hehe!”
Wang Ming squinted and smiled.
“You’re getting a good deal!”
In the attic, several women wrapped Tingting up in a sheet and carried her downstairs to the basement.
At night, Liu Huaiting woke up and slowly opened her eyes.
“Huh? How did I fall asleep?”
As a half-step Perfected Person, she had good control over her body and mind.
How did she fall asleep without intending to fall asleep?
Looking around, it was dark and there was a strange smell.
Huh?
This wasn’t the attic?
Tingting wanted to turn over and get out of bed, but she found that she couldn’t move her limbs.
“What’s happening?”
After struggling for a while, she found that her abdomen meridians were blocked and she couldn’t use any of her powers.
“Cough!”
Tingting opened her mouth to cry out, but her throat became itchy and she ended up coughing.
Her cough echoed in the dark room.
“This is not the attic!”
There wouldn’t have been an echo in the attic.
She turned her head, trying to see her surroundings.
But it was pitch black, with no trace of light visible.
More importantly, she couldn’t access her powers. Even her basic senses were affected.
She tried harder to move, but still failed!
She became very anxious!
After some time, she gradually calmed down.
“What’s wrong with me? Why am I like this? Was meeting Grandpa just a dream?”
Her cough echoed again.
In the next room, Wang Ming cracked his whip.
Crack!
The whip hit a girl.
Just like Tingting, this girl was also from the South Continent.
She was just an ordinary Acquired Realm cultivator.
“Isn’t it good to be in this business? You’ll not only get to enjoy yourself, but also gain some training resources. It’s better than begging on the streets.”
“Just kill me then! If I don’t die, I will kill you!” The girl was yelling through her gritted teeth.
“You don’t know what’s good for yourself! Do you really need to experience it for yourself before you believe me?”
Cough! Cough!
Just then, a coughing sound came from next door.
Wang Ming put down his whip and pressed his ear on the wall to listened.
“She woke up so soon. She must be powerful.”
He was mildly surprised.
Wang Ming licked his lips.
“It’s good that she’s powerful. This will only make it more satisfying to conquer her. At most, I’ll just increase the dosage next time.”
