Martial Universe (武动乾坤)

The guild won't stop mourning. Keep going as if I really died.

The other disciples will keep searching for the map.

All of this is to cover for you.

You have to find that person.

I have something to bestow to you.

You shall inherit my duty.

I have a bargaining chip. I'm just waiting for an opportunity.

What is that? Catch it!

Come! Come catch your Grandmaster!

Why are you on the ground? Are you kowtowing to me?

Quickly!

Catch it!

Stupid rat! Just wait till I catch you. I'm going to boil you!

It seems that you're not just an idiot, you're blind too.

You want to catch me? We'll see about that!

- Whoever catches him will be rewarded! - Catch me if you can!

- You can't catch me! - Hold it down!

Move it, move it!

- I guess a scent isn't good enough. - Where is it?

I can't be bothered with you anymore.

He really shouldn't be provoked.

Drink up! What?

Drink! What is it?

Drink!

- Mister Fourteen says hello. - Mister Fourteen?

Whether Yan City travelers bring good or bad with them

we shall get past it all!

I'm looking to refine a spirit treasure. Will you point me in the right direction?

Thousand Gold Association on the east side.

No matter what treasure you're looking for, your efforts won't be wasted.

Thanks.

You took eight of my pastries for one Yang Yuan stone?

He dresses like he's made of money.

Some customers make you lose money.

If you happen across a spendthrift, you'll end up earning it all back.

I'll see you around!

- It's so lively here! - It's the Thousand Gold Association.

It's an incredibly affluent group.

Here is our lovely maid, Kui Yue!

Her body is like a flower, she can dance and sing, and loves to laugh.

She no longer wants to be a maid.

If anyone likes her and wants to take her home, just name a price!

I'm guessing... Master Yan was talking about that man up there.

The starting bid is 30,000.

- Raise your hand to raise 5,000. - 30,500!

That's 30,500 Yang Yuan pills!

They auction off people in Great Puppet City?

This may be a black market auction house.

Then... let's save her!

- Save her? - Yes!

- 40,500! - 40,500 Yang Yuan pills!

40,500 Yang Yuan pills!

- All right, we will. - 50,000!

50,000! 50,000 Yang Yuan pills!

Let her go!

In such a hurry? Are you going to place a huge bid?

That's right!

I want to save the damsel in distress.

- Young, but arrogant. - Come with us!

His Spirit Power is incredible!

Miss, let's go!

My Emblem Puppet maid!

My Kui Yue!

It took my three years to make you, I took care of you so meticulously.

But you've been treated so crudely!

- She isn't a real person? - Of course not.

She's Kui Yue, an Emblem Puppet maid I made from scratch.

She may not be real, but look at these details! She's hyperrealistic!

A priceless gem!

- I'm Lin Dong. - Kid...

We have three rules here.

Don't come empty-handed, don't leave empty-handed

and don't disrespect me. You two broke all three rules.

What are you going to do about it?

Run!

Where are you running off to?

What are you going to do now?

We weren't disrespecting you.

We just had a minor exchange.

Plus! We didn't come empty-handed.

Yes! We didn't.

We have to refine a spirit treasure.

A spirit treasure?

You came to refine a spirit treasure?

You should've said so earlier! Any disrespect would've been voided!

Are you the Thousand Gold Association's head?

All genuine items, bid by the thousands.

I'm Xia Wan Jin. (Means "10,000 gold.") Or you can call me Xia Yi Chui. (Gavel.)

Then might I ask... have you been to Yan City before?

Aren't you here to refine a spirit treasure?

Earthly level... an Earthly level treasure.

It's an incredible object.

Can it be refined?

I've encountered countless artifacts in my life.

There isn't one I can't refine.

However, this particular item is unique.

It requires many other precious items to cultivate it.

I'm afraid I'll have to charge a higher fee.

How much? Just tell me.

- 50,000 Yang Yuan pills. - 50,000 Yang Yuan pills?

That... is enough to buy the girl from before!

60,000.

You increased it again? This... Lin Dong, he--

Listen to him!

- 70,000. - 70,000?

- You-- - All right! 70,000 it is.

- Xiao Yan, quiet. Listen. - He--

- He'll do it again if you don't stop. - How can guests come empty-handed

if they want to refine a spirit treasure?

Perhaps the two of you have some other precious items on you?

Yang Yuan pills.

All right. Sales have their rules.

As long as you can refine it, it doesn't matter how much money it takes.

Please come get your treasure in three days.

- Where are we going? - When we left...

Master Yan reminded me to spend the pills sparingly.

Now I've spent it all in an instant.

Why did you hand it all over then?

Although Thousand Gold Association deals in shady business...

but I'm positive that someone was using emblem magic back there.

And that person was Xia Wan Jin.

That's Emblem Master magic. I don't understand it.

Who would know emblem magic here, besides Ghost Puppet Sect?

An Emblem Master Guild member.

Xiao Yan, not only do you understand human speech better

but you're beginning to understand human matters too.

Do you get it?

Do you really?

Think about it. I purposely revealed the Ancestral Stone to him earlier

just to test him out.

- This is unjust! - Sir!

Sir.

You dropped something.

I...

Lost-and-found retrieval is 300 Yang Yuan pills.

300 Yang Yuan pills?

I'm just kidding around.

Xia... Xia... Xia Yi Chui!

- You sure you can fix it? - I guarantee that I can.

It's a promise then!

I've waited so long... they've finally come.

If Xia Wen Jin is the city's informant, he'll definitely come looking for us.

- Got it? - Then...

The tigress!

Miss, have you come to look at treasures?

If so, you can head to Thousand Gold Association.

They have everything you can think of there.

- Especially-- - Stop talking.

I'm not looking for treasure, I'm looking for a person.

A foolish brat, accompanied by another foolish brat.

Have you seen anyone like that?

She could at least get our descriptions right.

You're a fool, but how am I one?

Have you?

You can go to the Association to find people too. They really have it all!

I could have eaten that.

It looks like that innkeeper is working with the black market.

Everyone in this city is so shady!

- Then let me warn the tigress. - Wait.

Instead of having the Association dupe her, we might as well.

Come on.

- Have you seen an idiot brat? - No.

- How pretty. Have you seen-- - No.

Has anyone seen an idiot brat?

You should ask...

if they've seen an elegant young man followed by--

A strong and sturdy protector.

A demonic beast in human form!

Has anyone seen an idiot brat around?

- Stop running! - After the marten!

- Capture it! - Quick!

Don't run!

- Hurry! - This way!

Hurry!

Just try running again! Hand over the marten!

Xiao Yan, help!

Xiao Yan, come on!

Little Marten, get inside the Qian Kun Bag!

Savage girl, didn't you go home?

Xia Yi Chui?

You buy supplies out of your own pocket?

How else could I be frugal?

Right.

Ghost Puppet Sect is after us right now.

Let's make a deal. Name a price and let us hide in your Association for a bit.

30... 30,000.

You're scamming us!

30,000 Yang Yuan pills in exchange for your lives and this fairy's life.

This isn't a bad deal for you.

- Can I owe you? - I'm not a creditor.

- Xia Yi Chui, just help me out-- - 30,000 Yang Yuan pills.

As expected of Dao Sect's princess.

You have a lot more resources than us.

This money is only yours after it's all over and we're safe.

This lass...

You're brutal.

- Do you want it or not? - Deal.

Let's go!

This feels great! Ghost Puppet Sect isn't a place fit for humans.

You aren't even a human, dumb tiger.
