Chapter ?2349 Karmic Sight


    Arriving at the central za, Davis found himself following a flow with the crowd.


    However, he didn''t do that but found a ce at an open space restaurant serving street food, eating chunks of emperor-grade bird meat that tasted more exotic and delicious than a magical beast chicken at low ranks.


    It seemed like the Fire Phoenix wasn''t offended when birds were served as food. Davis even nced at the menu posted on the food stall and found human meat and fey meat, but he didn''t find spirit meat here. Still, he didn''t know what to say other than nce at the magical beasts seated beside him in their human forms, consuming human meat as they eyed him with deep smiles.


    "…"


    <strong>*Krkrk!~*</strong>


    He took the chunk of meat and produced a crunchy sound as he crushed a bone piece in his jaws, causing the magical beasts to quiver before they harrumphed and looked away, not wanting to mess with a human who could crunch on magical beast bones and chew them like he was eating soft meat.


    With thating to an end, Davis turned to look at the giant central za where people were hundreds and thousands of people were moving about.


    But in Davis''s eyes, it was a world of karmic web, intertwined with each people passing by his vision. Something like this would have made him dizzy back then, but now, there was only a slight ache in the forehead, which was endurable.


    Some karmic threads were quite vague to look at, making him feel slightly dizzy, while some were extremely clear because thetter had lesser cultivation or prowess than him.


    As he practiced only viewing people whose prowess was lower than him or slightly above him, he found it easier to keep this state activated. His soul force was also expanding at an easily recoverable rate.


    Nheless, what he saw left him quite speechless, especially the beautiful women walking past him.


    The very sight of their presence gave him goosebumps, making him understand how fortunate he had been with his women.


    After all, he managed to see signs of affairs with those beautiful women as he saw red threads tainted with resentment gray, enmity ck, or frustrated yellow while some blue, friendly threads were tainted with intimate red, signifying that these women were definitely cheating on their husbands with their friendly acquaintance of some sort.


    "…!"


    The mind-boggling thing was that there were even pink, familial threads that were tainted with intimate red among them.


    Almost every kind of rtionship was exposed to him, but he made sure not to stare too much, even the ones with incestual rtionships.


    Wherever his eyes went, he just cast a slight nce, concentrating on viewing karmic nature alone, but the people who possessed karmic virtue and karmic sin were still very few.


    Minutes passed by in this manner as he spotted a few people who possessed karmic sin.


    ''Two meters dark crimson karmic sin…? A hard pass...''


    ''Four meters? Seems like a bandit, perhaps a leader… Nah…''


    ''Nine meters…? Damn, he looks like a young master and is an immortal… not worth the trouble...''


    Davis constantly weighed the gain and risk factors to swipe someone''s karmic sin, and so far, in fifteen minutes, he found none so far worth his time. He felt like he should''ve known that he wouldn''t find any ughterer in the streets but still hoped that he could find one as a ughterer would indeed mix with the crowd when in cities.


    He ordered two more dishes and continued consuming as though he had nothing better to do.


    For the subsequent amount of time, Davis didn''t see anyone having karmic sin that was more than nine meters, but he did see some people with a few meters of karmic virtue. Evidently, he became aware that there were more people with karmic sin than people who possessed karmic virtue, which made him ask if he was even living in a righteous city.


    However, possessing karmic sin didn''t necessarily mean that the person had killed millions of people.


    In other words, the person could have done something that is considered to be worth killing millions. For example, killing someone who possesses a meter of karmic virtue for no justifiable reason under the eyes of the heavens. That''s counted as a grave sin, leading that person to incur a meter or more of karmic sin.


    After all, karmic sin was easier to gain than karmic virtue.


    Still, he was disappointed that he didn''t see even one person with bright red karmic sin, which could be considered the second tier of karmic sin. As long as he even spotted one, he was willing to take a greater risk, but there was no one with such an amount of karmic sin.


    After all, having a bright red karmic sin could be considered to have killed around a hundred million people.


    ''Sigh, it looks like bing an assassin is the only way to target the people I want while I gain karmic sin from them...''


    Standing up, he paid for the open restaurant and left, following the stream of the crowd.


    However, where was he going to find an assassin establishment in this huge city?


    Davis had no idea.


    "Fucking ve! Can''t even stand properly when I just bought you!? Shit! Shit, shit!!! This was a waste of time and wealth!"


    Just as he arrived between two pathways while he kept thinking and searching, there was a white-robed man who kept kicking the head of another white-robed man. It caused amotion, causing Davis to look to the side as he saw a massive pce, which was rathermon sight in the central za, but he noticed something that he didn''t expect to see easily.


    <strong>[Azure Radiance ve Traders]</strong>


    He returned his gaze to see the ve getting kicked. The ve started bleeding by the time some people gathered around them.


    "Ahaha!" A ck-robed person stepped forward and suddenlyughed, "Look at you. You have been fooled like many others."


    "What? Are you ying with me?" The white-robed man who attacked the ve asked with wide eyes.


    "Of course not! The ve roulette is a fucking scam! Do you know how many people left dejected-"


    <strong>*Bzzz!~*</strong>


    Abruptly, Level Nine Immortal undtions erupted from the Azure Radiance ve Traders Pce, causing the ck-robed person to be sent flying as he spurted a mouthful of blood.


    "Someone who is not even our patron doesn''t get to say a word about us, especially not in front ofw-abiding establishments as they disrupt our business."


    Came a heavy voice filled with warning.


    The ck-robed man managed to stand up. However, he ran away without saying anything while people began murmuring that it was a person from another ve trading establishment, causing the white-robed man''s expression to turn ugly.


    "Excuse me, patron, is there anything wrong with that ve you bought from us?"


    Abruptly, an azure-robed man stepped out of the pce and asked the white-robed man with a gentle smile.


    "Eh- Umm… no..."


    "Is there anything else you would like to ask us? Any questions that we may have forgotten to answer or failed to inform you of important matters about the ve you purchased from us?"


    "No," The white-robed man straightened his back and sped his hand with a stiff expression on his face, "It was a pleasure doing business with you, so I''ll take my leave."


    He urged the kneeling ve to stand up before they left together and disappeared, returning peace to the street.


    The azure-robed man at the entrance of the Azure Radiance ve Traders Pce smirked before he turned around, but halfway, he flinched in shock,ing to a stop as he saw a ck-robed, eagle-eyed man staring at him with calm eyes.


    "I would like to buy some ves." A mild grumpy tone came out of the ck-robed man''s mouth.


    "But before that, I would like to know how these ves are obtained."


    "I see…"


    The azure-robed man''s lips twitched before he calmed himself, a shady smile appearing on his face as he gestured inside.


    Davis nodded his head, rubbing his ck beard as he followed the azure-robed man inside.


    "My humble name is Yufor. May I know our patron''s name?"


    "Just a random patron who''s passing by..."


    "I understand." Yufor nodded his head, "If our patron is wondering how our business is legal and justified..."


    He turned around and pointed towards the board hung above the entrance from the inside, causing Davis to see some erged scrolls as though they were banners hung.


    "… that''s the license from the city officials, stamped and legalized. We have also paid our taxes, as you can see."


    "As for the ves, they are all obtained throughwful means. In other words, these ves here, ranging from humans, feys, magical beasts, and spirits, are all sold by their own families or sometimes have involved themselves in some sort of crime, only to be captured by righteous individuals or bounty hunters and sold. There is also the case of entire powers being decimated rightfully in the name of justice, and the survivors end up being sold to us by the victors."


    "The ves that we sell, none of them have backers. Even if they do have backers, then they could only be obtained by spending here, purchasing from us or the master who bought it from us. Everything we do iswful, so our patrons don''t have to worry about untoward liabilities in purchasing a ve."


    Yufor couldn''t help but smirk as he disyed a golden tooth, "If someone is demanding the return of a ve you brought from us, you could always contact us as we''re always here to help."


    Davis couldn''t help but raise his brows in understanding.


    People wouldn''t dare to sell the people of any race due to the covenant, but if they were considered ves, the point of contention would be different. Therefore, to even sell a magical beast mount, that magical beast mount must be designated as a ve for better safety against thew and any backers who mighte demanding the return of their rtion.


    However, he imagined that there were also shops selling magical beast mounts without a ve contract but perhaps, that was only done in human-owned cities.
