Chapter 977: 977
Liu Furong contacted Ling Lan but she told him that it was inconvenient for her to talk now and asked him to leave a message . Hence, Liu Furong texted what happened to Tao Ying to her and waited for her reply patiently .
In the black market, Ling Lan raised her arm to look at her communicator . Ye Shao noticed Ling Lan’s actions and smiled . “There are interference systems in place so our communicators can’t be used . Even if we are just standing in front of each other, we can’t communicate through our communicators . ”
Ling Lan smiled in reply . “No wonder there is no reaction . I asked my team members to report their situation to me every hour . ”
Ling Lan settled Ye Shao and read through the message Liu Furong sent her in her mind . She started pondering over it .
Little Tao was a normal person but he had a strong point . The first time she saw him, she discovered that he had awakened his innate talent at a young age too . She remembered all the children she saw in the black market and arrived at a conclusion .
Those human traffickers must have noticed Little Tao’s strength accidentally . They also knew that he was from a weak mercenary team so there would be no consequences involved if they kidnapped him . Since there was nothing to lose, they had no reason to give up on this piece of meat .
Ling Lan told Liu Furong her guess . Liu Furong was enlightened . No wonder Little Tao was taken away . He told Luo Yi what Ling Lan told him . As he was speaking, he suddenly remembered that his precious daughter had awakened her innate talent too . He got frightened . He told Luo Yi, “Luo Yi, stay here . I’ll go and find my daughter . ”

Then, he disappeared .
Damn it, his Little Aihua followed Wang Qi, Han Xuya, and some other people to the market . He hoped that nothing happened to them .
Wang Qi and Liu Aihua liked to walk around freely so they cooperated and managed to leave their little burden, Liu Aijun, behind . Without Liu Aijun following them, Aunt Liu wouldn’t nag at them . However, since they were just kids, Han Xuya was worried about letting them walked around alone so she split up with Luo Chao . She would follow Wang Qi and Liu Aihua while Luo Chao would follow Aunt Liu and Liu Aijun .
Besides the two of them, Luo Lang and Qi Long came to protect them too . Luo Lang followed his sister so Qi Long followed Han Xuya . Just like how Han Xuya was worried about Wang Qi and Liu Aihua, Qi Long was worried about Han Xuya too .
The Chaotic Lands were dangerous and unsafe but the items sold here were good . The price was much cheaper than their own planet too . Some were shockingly cheap . Wang Qi and Liu Aihua managed to buy some knick-knacks after a while .
As Wang Qi and Liu Aihua stood in front of a stall and looked through the pile of goods, Han Xuya had some free time to take a look at the wide array of goods beside her too . A spherical ball with mist coming out of it caught her attention . She walked over and held the ball . A cold feeling flowed up her hand . This was a frost pearl .
“Miss, this is the frost pearl special to Planet Aoliduo . It’s very precious . ” The stall owner smiled happily when he saw a customer .
“The frost river produced millions of frost pearls every year . It isn’t as precious as you say, “Han Xuya replied calmly . She liked the frost pearl because she felt that it was compatible with her Boss . She wasn’t a stupid person who didn’t know how to bargain . She wouldn’t be fooled by a few words .
The stall owner’s lie got exposed so he laughed awkwardly and said, “You are a knowledgeable person . I can’t fool you . How about this, if you like it, you can take it at this price . ” The stall owner knew that he couldn’t get more money from this beautiful lady so he gave up this thought decisively and named his price .
Han Xuya looked at the frost pearl carefully . Then, she offered half the price the stall owner gave her .
The stall owner gave a forced smile . “Miss, I came all the way here to set up my stall . Let me earn some money . I really can’t earn much at this price . I can’t sell it to you . ”
Han Xuya put down the frost pearl indifferently . “Forget it . I hope that you can get a better buyer . ” She looked as though she wanted to stand up .
The stall owner saw her action and shouted, “Wait, miss, do you want to buy more things? If you buy more, I’ll sell it to you at your
price . ”
“This frost pearl can only be used as an accessory . There is no use for it . The price I’m offering you is high enough . You’ll not be able to find a better buyer . Plus, there is only one pearl . I can’t even make a bracelet with it . ” Han Xuya pretended to be nonchalant . “If you are willing to sell it, I can buy it for fun . If not, I don’t have to get it too . ”
The owner thought for a moment and asked, “You want more frost pearls?”
Han Xuya raised one of her eyebrows . “You have more?”
“How many do you need? If you buy more, I’ll offer it to you at the price . ” That which is rare is dear . The stall owner didn’t bring out all his stock first .
“How many do you have?” Han Xuya didn’t answer him .
The stall owner show ’10’ with his fingers .
“I want all of them . However, I want them at this price . ” Han Xuya signaled another price with her fingers . The stall owner’s expression seemed even more forced . “Miss, this is not how you should bargain . ”
“You should know that once there is a huge supply of something, the price will become cheaper . ” Han Xuya smiled like a sly little fox .
“You’re impressive . ” The stall owner couldn’t do anything . He agreed with the price . It was a third of his original price but at least he managed to sell all his frost pearls . He had gotten back most of his cost for this trip .
Han Xuya happily took the camphor wood box containing the ten frost pearls . As she was getting up, she saw Wang Qi and Liu Aihua running into the crowd . She got up hurriedly and chased after them . Two big-sized men suddenly blocked her path .
Han Xuya tilted her body and wanted to evade them . Suddenly, a hand appeared in front of her chest . One of the men was trying to molest
her .
“What are you trying to do?” Qi Long appeared instantly and grabbed the hand . He was furious .
Han Xuya looked at Qi Long .
Qi Long nodded to show that he would take care of this matter . Han Xuya moved to the side and left . She wanted to catch up with the two children among the crowd . She still remembered that she needed to take care of them .
She took a few steps when suddenly, she couldn’t move anymore . Wang Qi, who was in front of her, was gone .
Han Xuya vomited a mouthful of blood .
The force that was gripping her body disappeared . The heavily injured Han Xuya leaned back and fell towards the ground . A warm and strong arm caught her tightly . “Xuya!” Qi Long shouted anxiously .
‘This is the first time you called me Xuya!’ Han Xuya wanted to tell him this but she couldn’t speak . Blood kept flowing out of her mouth, staining her clothes .
