Is the wicked female fat and ugly? All the beast husbands are vying to wash her skirt.

Chapter 243 Pretending to be mysterious
On the main road outside the city-state.

A wolf-eared orc dressed in black animal skin was selling a bag of salt wrapped in animal skin: "Hey buddy, want some salt? I have some here, selling cheap, just ten white beast crystals."

Upon hearing this, the mole-orc that was passing by stopped.

Ten White Beast Crystals for such a cheap price?
Even the cheapest salt in the city-state costs twenty white beast crystals, but this orc only wants ten.

He couldn't help but walk over and say, "Brother, is there something wrong with your salt? I only need ten."

Salt was very expensive in the city-states, and few tribes could afford it.

Some tribes with surplus will set a lower price and exchange it for beast crystals.

However, most of them are aged salt that has been stored for a long time, usually worth about fifteen beast crystals, but this one is only priced at ten.

When Yide saw someone approaching, he opened the animal skin bag, revealing the snow-white salt inside, and said, "Look at this salt, isn't it of good quality!"

Upon hearing this, the mole-orc looked over and saw that the salt in the wolf-eared orc's hand was white and fine. Under the sunlight, it was even more shiny and finer than the finest white salt in the city-state.

Salt of this quality requires three purple beast crystals, and only large tribes can afford it.

He hadn't expected to stumble upon such a great bargain today, and he was somewhat tempted, asking, "Really only ten beast crystals?"

Yi De nodded. "Of course, all my things are here. What else are you worried about?"

Upon hearing this, the mole-beastman glanced around and quickly pulled out ten white beast crystals from his pocket, handing them over: "Then give me one, brother."

"Alright." De took the ten beast coins, quickly wrapped the salt in the animal skin bag, and handed it over.

The mole-orc happily accepted the salt and stuffed it into his pouch.

The passing beastmen, seeing people exchanging salt, also looked over.

Seeing that the salt in Yide's hand looked very good, they all gathered around, saying, "Brother, I want some too."

"I also want."

"Add me one."

That's even better than the finest white salt; buying it is a real bargain.

And it only costs ten White Beast Crystals, which is really cheap.

However, as soon as they finished speaking, Yide shook his head and said, "I'm sorry everyone, all the salt for today is sold out. This is the only portion left. If you want some, you'll have to wait until tomorrow."

Everyone felt a pang of regret upon hearing this, but seeing that he had no goods, they had no choice but to accept their defeat.

It seems I'll have to come back tomorrow.

Meanwhile, Erde and Sande were also selling salt in the same way on their way to other parts of the city-state.

Their sales tactics were exactly the same as Yide's: they only sold one item at a time, and once it was sold out, they told the customers to wait at the same spot the next day.

Lolo explained that she would only sell one order per day, and that would be enough for three days.

The main hall of the city-state.

The dim yellow torches stretched a person's body to an elongated angle.

A silver wolf beastman knelt on the ground and reported: "Young master, we have found out that those three only sell one bag of salt a day, and then they go back after they sell it all."

Upon hearing this, the snow-white werewolf lying on the animal skin mat narrowed its eyes, swayed its tail, and lazily said, "Interesting. Where's the salt? Let me see it."

The silver wolf orc immediately stood up, took out the salt wrapped in animal hide from his bosom, walked over, and presented the salt with both hands.

The snow-white werewolf took the salt packet, lazily glancing at it with his eyes. The next moment, after opening it, his eyes became much more serious. "This salt is indeed of good quality."

As he spoke, he slipped his slender, pale fingers into the animal skin bag, dabbed some of the substance on his fingers, rubbed them together a few times, and then sniffed lightly:

"This salt is fine enough, and it looks even better than our fine salt. It doesn't seem to have come from our city-state."

"Have you found out where they got the salt from?"

"I followed them all the way, but lost them halfway through." Silver Wolf lowered his head in shame.

"Lost them? There are actually people you, Lu Ming, have lost? It seems your Windless Legs aren't invincible after all?" The person on the animal skin seat said with a mocking expression. "It's not because I run fast, but because they suddenly disappeared. I couldn't find them even with my tracking spell."

"Disappeared suddenly? How could it be gone?"

"They ran into a patch of grass, then their figures flickered, and after I finally managed to break free from the grass, they disappeared," Silver Wolf said, somewhat annoyed.

"It seems this was intentional. Did they say anything?"

Lu Ming shook his head. "He didn't say anything."

"The arrival of these three is suspicious. Don't worry, young master, I will definitely lead men to capture them tomorrow."

"You won't be able to catch them tomorrow; they won't be coming."

"They're not coming? They're not selling salt anymore?" Lu Ming was taken aback when he heard this.

"Who sells only one bag of salt a day? It's obvious they're doing this on purpose to show us."

"This salt looks good and doesn't smell fishy or bitter. I don't know where such high-quality salt came from. Just wait, they'll come looking for us."

"Young Master, are you saying they have their own salt mines?"

"That possibility cannot be ruled out, otherwise where would the salt be purified? However, the salt lakes and salt fields in this area are mostly our city-state's property. It's strange that these three people can still produce some salt."

"So, should I wait outside for the next few days?"

"Yes, you."

"Report: A female wolf outside the city of Young Master requests an audience, saying she can make salt."

Before the snow-white wolf-orc could finish speaking, another wolf-orc knelt down to report.

Upon hearing this news, Dongfang Luanhe raised an eyebrow and pursed his thin lips, saying, "They arrived so quickly. How boring. I thought they would keep it a secret for a few more days."

"Let her in," Dongfang Luanhe said lazily, sitting up straight.

Su Nuannuan was a little nervous when she was called in.

She had never been to such a magnificent place before.

The palace hall, which can accommodate hundreds of people, has lifelike wolf heads carved on the beams around it.

In the center of the main hall stand two tall, large, round wooden pillars, adorned with wolf totems, which appear majestic and imposing.

She had always lived in a tribe in the forest; this was her first time coming to the city-state.

If the system hadn't guided her here, she wouldn't have known that the city-state was so wonderful.

As Su Nuannuan was looking around, a deep and magnetic voice suddenly came from above her head:
"Interesting. You're the only female who came? Where are your three beast mates?"

Dongfang Luanting bent his knees, rested his head on his hands, and looked down at the people below with a playful expression.

Upon hearing this, Su Nuannuan looked up and saw a tall, slender man dressed in white animal skin, with delicate yet alluring features, lying lazily on a leather chair. His tail was half-draped under the chair, and he was looking at her with his narrow eyes.

Is this the target the system was referring to?
She's really beautiful; her looks are no less than those of Su Luoluo's six beast husbands.

She stared blankly at the person in front of her, then nervously touched her head.

Her hair was singed and uneven from the fire, and she went to great lengths to get this wig, which barely covered her bald head.

The system said that as long as I successfully stay in the city-state, I will be rewarded with a head of beautiful hair.

Then she won't be afraid of people discovering that she's bald.

She had carefully concealed her face with pearl powder, certain that she was beautiful enough to attract the snow-white werewolf.

She was excitedly trying to attract his attention when she heard him mention three beastly husbands. Confused, she asked:

"Three beasts? What three beasts?"
