Chapter 804

Fiend Beast Profits

There was no denying that ones environment influenced their thoughts. At Dustfallen Sect, life was laid back. Siblings got along. Elders were caring. Accordingly, Mu Yu perceived murder to be cruel and criminal. At Pill Cauldron Sect and Formation Sect, there was no telling who would stick a knife in whose back and when.

If Mu Yu brought his beliefs and attitude from Dustfallen Sect to Pill Cauldron Sect or Formation Sect, he would have been a gofer or dead if he was not as capable as he was while there. Thus, Mu Yu concluded that, if killing others was irresponsible to others, then one was irresponsible to their own life if the roles were reversed. As such, Mu Yu began to create his cognitive heuristics for deciding who to kill and who to spare. By the same account, he stopped being absolutely averse to killing or blindly embodying what justice was defined as.

Xuan Zhengtang, in contrast, maintained his bottom line instead of redefining the scope of his principles as Mu Yu did, resulting in him paying for his adherence to his principles. Had it not been for Mu Yu, maybe his will to die standing than live on his knees would have had cost him his wife.

Xiaoshuai, who came out eating a drumstick, opined, Cant you just forge what youre doing if nobody back at the sect is aware of the situation here?

You think everyone eats without paying the way you do? Mr. Xuan is too upright to falsify his ledger.

Why should I pay when Im this handsome?

Hehe, you really are so adorable that everyone wants to take care of you, Xiaosuhai, complimented Xuan Sitong, amused.

Doesnt that also mean that youll make hardly a dime after selling my level six fiend beast and paying the 90%? When will you ever have five million at this rate? Mu Yu asked.

As you pointed out, Father isnt willing to forge the ledger. He told me that, if people dont want to live moral lives, let them be; just make sure you stick to your morals. I, therefore, can only support him.

Where does he take apart fiend beasts?

Xuan Sitong pointed to another courtyard. A room over that side. I cant stand the stench of blood in there, so I think you

Xuan Sitong cut herself off upon recalling Mu Yus violence yesterday. He did not mind it and headed over to the place she pointed to.

Xuan Zhengtang had fiend beast body parts suspended from hooks and rows of transparent containers for brains and whatnot hovering in mid-air to preserve the parts. Xuan Zhengtang gingerly took out the brain of the beautiful leopard, then looked up to see Mu Yu enter.

Good morning, Master Yu. Please give me a moment to finish this head. Their heads need to b-

I know they need to be dried using spiritual energy for ninety-six hours after they die and then reduced to powder in order to be stored in a miracle flower timber box. You can sell their brain to Pill Cauldron Sect to be used as ingredient because its almost a miracle for brain injuries, while small amounts can be used as a cognitive stimulant. Too much and you will induce drowsiness.

You know about alchemy?

A little.

A little? That is more than me. I only knew about pricing and how to preserve them, thought Xuan Zhengtang. You are too humble, Master Yu. You appear to be a professional. This one, on the other hand, has proven himself ignorant.

As Mu Yu looked around, he realised that they were so short on manpower that Xuan Zhengtang had to take apart the fiend beasts on his own. Mr. Xuan, have you ever calculated how much it costs to buy these fiend beasts?

Whilst starting the drying process, Xuan Zhengtang effused, Yes. If you would like to sell their spirit, a level six fiend beast would earn, at least, fifty thousand, while a level seven would make, at least, five million, and those are conservative estimates. A rough estimate of your catch would be fifteen million.

Put another way, youd be willing to purchase them for fifteen million if you had the capital?

Yes. Worried Mu Yu was sceptical, Xuan Zhengtang added, Beast-Taming Hall should offer a fairly similar price.

You misunderstand. I was not questioning your honesty. How much would you sell them for, and what would your profit margin be?

This one sells goods via various channels. He should make around twenty million in net profit. After factoring in the cost or purchase, we would have made five million!

What will you do with the five million afterwards?

According to our sect policy, we will have to pay 4.5 million back to the sect. This one is satisfied to earn five hundred thousand from it. We just have to close a few more deals to make enough.

Mu Yu killed the fiend beasts to help Xuan Zhengtang, not to feed Inferno Sects first elder. It frustrated Mu Yu, but he respected Xuan Zhengtang for sticking to his guns regardless of others putting him in a position where the urge to change was incredibly high.

Mr. Xuan, after deliberation, I feel we need to redefine the price of the goods.

Xuan Zhengtang flicked his head up. Redefine the price of the goods? Wh-what do you mean, Master Yu?
