Strongest Mage with the Lust system

After Belen calmed down, she glanced at Max, and from her expression, it was clear that she was dying to ask where he got these blood jars.

However, in the end, she held back her curiosity and said, "This dark blood seems to be beasts\' blood essence."

"Is it valuable?" Max asked,

Seeing his eager expression, Belen smiled wryly and nodded, "Yes, it\'s quite valuable." Then she continued in a slightly excited voice, "Just as its name suggests, this is the blood essence or lifeblood of the beasts, and it can only be extracted from the hearts of the living beasts.

If the blood essence of a stronger beast is given to a weaker beast or beast with similar strength, its strength will rise by leaps and bounds without it having to do it. Therefore, everyone with beast pets is usually willing to pay hefty sums  to buy the beast\'s blood essence to improve their pets\' strength.

However, it isn\'t easy to extract the blood essence without some special means, and even if one has the means to extract it successfully, the chances are high that the beast would die in the process and the blood essence would be wasted. This causes the supply of this blood essence to be tens or hundreds of times lesser than the demand, which in return causes its price to rise by several folds."

When Max heard this, his eyes flashed in excitement. He then turned to the middle-aged lady and asked, "Can you tell me how many Mana stones these five jars of beast blood essence would fetch me if I were to put them on auction?"

Hearing his question, the middle-aged lady took a deep look at Belen before she slowly spoke, "Honoured guest, please let me verify whether it is really beast blood essence or not and if it is, I need to determine its grade first before I can give you a rough amount."

"Yes. Please check it." Max nodded, slightly embarrassed at himself for losing his composure.

"Mm." The middle-aged lady nodded before she grabbed one of the jars, ready to open it; however, Max stopped her, "Please wait a moment."

"Hmm? What is it?" The middle-aged lady raised her brows as she asked.

Max didn\'t answer her and turned to Rima and others, "Cover your noses. The stench of this blood is horrible."

The ladies didn\'t hesitate and hurriedly covered their noses with their Mana. Since little Arya wasn\'t able to use her Mana to isolate smell, Rima helped her. The servant girls also did the same.

After they were done, Max gestured for the middle-aged lady to open the jar\'s lid.

The middle-aged lady cringed when she looked at the jar in her hand. However, she couldn\'t do anything to isolate her senses because she needed to verify it, and if she did block the smell, her accuracy would dwindle.

She then proceeded to open the lid and check the blood. Max and the ladies stared at her without blinking while she checked the beast\'s blood essence.

After a few moments, she suddenly exclaimed, "It\'s really the beast\'s blood essence. Moreover, it\'s the essence of a three-star beast." Without wasting any time, she started checking other jars.

Max and the company also became excited when they heard it was a three-star beast\'s blood essence. They then continued to watch her as he took the rest of the jars one by one and verified them.

\'Hopefully, the rest of the jars also have grade-three beast essence.\' Max, Belen and others prayed in their hearts.

However, they were bound to be disappointed because the middle-aged lady shook her head and sighed after checking the rest of the jars, "Too bad these jars only have the grade two blood essences, or today\'s auction would have been even more perfect."

"Oh!" Hearing this, Max and the company sighed, slightly disappointed.

The middle-aged woman was speechless by their reactions and said, "Dear guests, there is no need to be disappointed. Your luck is already pretty amazing to come across one jar of grade three and four jars of grade two beast blood essences."

"Oh? How are you so sure that It\'s not mine from the beginning?" Max was taken aback by her words and asked with interest.

,m "Well, from your expressions until now, it isn\'t difficult to guess this." The middle-aged lady smiled before changing the topic, "So, are you sure you want to sell this?"

"Yes. I do. Since none of us has a pet beast, keeping it in our possession is useless. Moreover, I need Mana stones to bid for the spirit fruits." Max nonchalantly said.

Hearing this, the lady became a little excited. If they added these blood essences, not only would they earn more profit, but their auction house also would be positively affected.

However, seeing that they were with little Arya, she calmed down and advised again, "Since you are our saint girl\'s friend, I would advise you to keep these essences since they are very hard to come by. Moreover, sooner or later, you will have a pet beast, and these will prove useful to them at that time."

"Yes, Max. What this elder said is right. I also think you shouldn\'t sell them." Belen also chimed in.

Max was silent for a while. He then repeated the question he had asked previously, "How about you first tell me how many Mana stones would I be able to acquire if I put them on auction?"

Hearing his question, the middle-aged lady thought for a while before saying, "It should be a little more than a million low-grade Mana stones."

"A million low-grade Mana stones?" Although Max and the company had already expected that the price of these blood essences would be pretty high, they were stunned after hearing the actual price. Of course, it was only the approximate amount. It might be a little lower and higher than this based on the people\'s demand.
