"Why didn't I see the little lion when I came in?" Chen Xuan asked.
"Haha, that little guy knows how to enjoy it! Just like the uncle, he goes out a few times a day when there are several performances, and goes up to give a few instructions every time. After he comes back, he hides and goes to sleep."
"I didn't see where it was sleeping!"
The man nodded towards a box not far away, "There it is!"
Only then did Chen Xuan discover that there was a small wooden box at the entrance to the animal cage. It was smaller than the box containing the spiritual crystals, but the box should have a hole on one side, and the hole was just inside.
This box is in the absolute upper hand, and other animals will only exist far away from it. It seems that the coercion of this little lion is not only revealed on the stage, but also exists in normal times.
"Then invite the leader, let's talk!" Yang Yunshan spoke. He is older and what he says is more credible than Chen Xuan in the eyes of outsiders.
"Wait a moment, you two. I'll go and invite you." After saying that, the man walked towards the inside.
Far away, the man just now was talking quietly to a fat middle-aged man, and looked at Chen Xuan and Yang Yunshan from time to time. The middle-aged man also looked over a few times, and several times looked at the box with the little lion sleeping in it.
Finally, the middle-aged man walked towards Chen Xuan and the others.
"You two young masters, do you really want to buy this little lion?" the middle-aged man asked.
"Yes. This lion looks mighty and domineering, just what I want." Chen Xuan said deliberately pretending to be domineering.
"Haha, do you two know the original realm of this lion?" the middle-aged man asked.
"I know that it was once a big lion, and it became a little lion after being injured." Chen Xuan said.
"That's right. And the realm of this big lion is not low. It has at least reached the mid-level level equivalent to the human cultivator realm. It is not the low level you imagined!" said the middle-aged man.
"So what?" Chen Xuan was immediately delighted when he heard the middle-aged man say this. It seems that the leader only estimated that the little lion would fall into the realm, but he never thought that he would become the lion king.
"Have you ever thought about it? If one day its realm recovers, can you surrender it?" the middle-aged man asked.
"If it is just an intermediate or even high-level cultivator, we have a solution. My master is a strong man at the ninth level of the cultivator." Chen Xuan lied.
The middle-aged man was obviously surprised, and his attitude became more humble, "The masters of the two young masters actually have such a high level of cultivation. It seems that the two of them have good family backgrounds! In this way, they are worthy of this little lion. Pets are also a good choice.”
The middle-aged man deliberately paused the topic, as if he was thinking about something, and then said: "It's just that this little lion is now the protagonist of the finale show of this circus. If I sell him to you, this circus will be destroyed." He lost his own brand! This makes the leader very embarrassed!"
"Captain, you can tell me clearly how much we need to pay to give this little lion to us." Yang Yunshan thought there was something interesting and said carefully.
"Well, logically it's not for sale, but considering that the young masters really want to buy it, I think it's just ten thousand spirit crystals. The price I offered is already very small, just enough to cover the original cost." The leader started to make nonsense.
"Oops! Ten thousand spiritual crystals." Chen Xuan shouted.
"What, is it a little more? Otherwise, we can't pay back the price of nine thousand." The group leader said with a straight face.
Chen Xuan was so happy that no one would believe him if he bought a Lion King with ten thousand spirit crystals. Now the price has dropped by another thousand. He had already prepared what the group leader would say when he looked at the lion. So what if there were a million spiritual crystals? Chen Xuan would still buy them if he wanted to.
"Okay, nine thousand is nine thousand. I will pay ten thousand, and you will give me this box, and then send the box and the lion to Zhibao Pavilion, and promise to keep it a secret. Is this good?" Chen Xuan said.
"It turns out he is the young master of Zhibao Pavilion. No wonder he is so generous. I will definitely do it and swear to keep it secret." The fat leader suddenly felt that he was stupid. He had lowered the price this time! The young master of Zhibao Pavilion will not kill him if he doesn’t kill him! But the words had been spoken, and he had no way to go back on his words, so he could only admit it.
In fact, apart from the imbalance in his heart, he made a lot of money this time. This little lion was sent to him half a year ago and he only spent a hundred spiritual crystals. At the beginning, the trainer couldn't tame the lion at all, and he even wanted to deal with it at a low price. However, I accidentally discovered that other animals seemed to be afraid of the little lion, so the trainer made him think of the lion king's command of troops, and the little lion reluctantly cooperated for a few times.
Now that he has sold ten thousand spiritual crystals in one go, this is already a big deal for him. If it reaches one thousand, he might even take action. Because he also has to take into account another factor, that is, the little lion's level has improved. At that time, it will not be something he, a third-level cultivator, can handle, and the whole circus may be in trouble.
Chen Xuan didn't think about these problems, but he was used to spending a lot of money, and he never thought about bargaining with the circus leader.
The two of them left the circus, and Xian'er was already waiting impatiently outside. When he saw them coming out, he frowned angrily.
"Xian'er, don't be angry, I found a good playmate for you!" Chen Xuan said with a smile. Although he bought the little lion, he had no intention of taking him into the Divine Heart Gate immediately. After reaching the Divine Heart Gate, there is no solution to this lion's life!
"What playmate? Is it a pet? It shouldn't be that talkative myna, right?" Xian'er asked. It seems that she is very interested in that myna.
"no."
"That's kittens, puppies and the like. I don't like it very much. But since Brother Xuan wants to give it to me, I reluctantly accepted it." Xian'er said slyly.
"Haha, how beautiful are you thinking? I didn't say I would give it to you! I just wanted you to be a playmate with it." Chen Xuandao.
"Huh! Brother Xuan is so stingy that he won't even give me a pet." Xian'er was anxious.
"It's not that I'm stingy! It's just that this guy is not suitable for giving away. I will still be of great use in the future." Chen Xuan said helplessly.
"What on earth is it that even Brother Xuan is reluctant to give away?" Xian'er asked.
"It's a lion king whose realm has slipped. In its heyday, it was probably equivalent to the third level of semi-immortal." Chen Xuan leaned into Xian'er's ear and whispered softly, "Don't tell anyone, including when facing this lion king. , don’t let him know that you know it’s the Lion King.”
"Is this...really? This is the pinnacle of existence. I'm so scared!" Xian'er actually felt scared.
"Don't be afraid. His current state is only equivalent to the second or third level of a mortal. Brother Yang can easily solve it." Chen Xuan said.
The circus sent a large carriage and carried the box and the lion onto the carriage. The lion was running around in the box, but its level was too low now, so it was all in vain.
However, when the box was placed in the inner courtyard of Zhibao Pavilion and the door was opened, the little lion calmed down and looked at the people in front of him with a pair of cold eyes, as if he wanted to see through them repeatedly.
Chen Xuan smiled deliberately and said: "Hello, little lion, I know you can understand what I say. Because I know you were transformed from a big lion. I didn't buy you back to hurt you. I I just hope you can help me when your realm is restored in the future."
"Roar!" The little lion roared with cracked teeth. Although it looked majestic, it felt more funny.
"Stop yelling, or I will lock you up." Chen Xuan threatened.
There was a look of disdain on the little lion's face.
"Master Chen, why did you buy a lion? This pet is a bit special!" It was Old Man Hu who followed him in.
"Dad Hu, I'll tell you the reason later. I'll comfort the little lion first," Chen Xuan said.
"Then I'll take care of the business first, and we'll talk about it in the evening." Old Man Hu was indeed very busy. He was the only one in charge of the entire Zhibao Pavilion, and all kinds of things kept him from having time to eat.
Seeing that Old Man Hu was gone, Chen Xuan then said to the little lion: "You stay here in the backyard and don't run around. You must know that your current level is too low and it is quite dangerous to run outside. I I think what you want to do most now is to recover from your injury! It just so happens that my eldest brother is a doctor, so he will give you some help." Chen Xuan pointed at Yang Yunshan with his finger.
The little lion also turned to look at Yang Yunshan.
"That's all I have to say, you can take care of yourself. The two people in front of you will be the ones who will often come into contact with you in the future. I hope you won't be too cruel to them." Chen Xuan pointed at Xian'er again with his hand.
The little lion looked at Xian'er again, and finally stared at Chen Xuan, as if asking: "What about you? Don't you have regular contact with me? Then why did you buy me back?"
"I have to go back to the sect to continue practicing, and I don't have time to get along with you for the time being. But in the future, there may be times when I need your help." Chen Xuan guessed something from the little lion's expression and tried to answer.
The little lion no longer showed any questioning expression, but turned around and walked into the box. Seizing the time to recover from the injury is the only thing it desires to do, and nothing else is as important as this.
Yang Yunshan chased after him and said, "Let me see your injury! Maybe it will be of some help to you."
The little lion ignored Yang Yunshan, which made Yang Yunshan's face very embarrassed.
"Don't pay attention to it now. Just provide it with food on time. Don't rush to heal the injury. It should know its own injury best." Chen Xuan whispered to Yang Yunshan.
"I'm going to find food." Xian'er shouted. She had actually been scared just now. After all, Chen Xuan said that this little lion might have been the top being on this continent before. But after seeing the realistic behavior of the little lion, she calmed down her fear a little. She immediately thought of using food to make friends with the little lion.
