Wu Town was considered a middle-tier town within the Cloud Margin City's territory. Despite being a middle-tier town, it had a large population. The market was always crowded with all sorts of people. Ordinary citizens, traveling merchants, cultivators, and many other types of people filled the market with hustle and bustle.

”Boss, I thought you were a cultivation addict. Why do you have the time to bring me out?” Xia Liuhui asked.

”Cultivating is something that needs to be done a step at a time. It is pointless to spend all the time cultivating. Occasional breaks might very well help you grow instead,” Xiang Shaoyun said.

”Is that so?” Xia Liuhui couldn't really get what Xiang Shaoyun was saying.

On the other hand, Elder Zhen Peng behind them seemed to have realized something. ”Perhaps I have been spending too much time in seclusion. I should have taken the time to experience the emotions of the mundane world. That way, I will be able to further improve my mental state.”

Xiang Shaoyun strolled around aimlessly as he was really out here only to take a breather with no specific goal in mind. But they hadn't even been in town for long before Elder Zhen Peng spoke using voice transmission, ”Young master, I think someone is tailing us.”

Xiang Shaoyun frowned, Is the Wu Clan still not giving up?

At this thought, he slowed down before whispering to Elder Zhen Peng, ”Just pretend we haven't realized yet. Let's see what they want first. We'll take care of them later.”

”Yes, young master.” Elder Zhen Peng nodded.

After strolling through the market, they arrived at a distribution center. When Xiang Shaoyun saw that there were a lot of cultivators here, he squeezed into the crowd.

Here, a large number of stalls could be found. Even Astral Realm and Transformation Realm cultivators could be seen selling items. A large variety of items were being sold, such as medicines, herbs, precious ores, and rare treasures.

”Wow, there are so many things here!” Xia Liuhui cried out in surprise.

”Let's go. If you see anything you want, just let me know. Your boss will buy it for you!” Xiang Shaoyun offered generously.

”Hehe, thank you in advance, boss, ”Xia Liuhui said as he rubbed his hands gleefully.

Xiang Shaoyun also started browsing through the stalls.

Although there really weren't many nice things being sold in a small town like this, it was still a nice place to stroll around while trying to figure out the goal of the people following them.

With Elder Zhen Peng present, he really wasn't worried that the Wu Clan would be able to do anything to him. Thus, Xiang Shaoyun browsed the stalls and strolled around in a completely relaxed mood.

There were many goods being sold, but very few of them were actually things Xiang Shaoyun really needed. After all, he was backed by the Martial Hall Palace now, and he could directly take what he needed from them. What this market had was incomparable to what the Martial Hall Palace had to offer.

”Huh? It's an agave! Too bad it's only half a stalk, so the medical efficacy is about 70 or 80 percent reduced,” Xiang Shaoyun muttered as he crouched down before a stall and looked at a dragon-shaped vine.

Agave was a high-grade spirit medicine capable of greatly strengthening one's physical flesh. There was only half an agave here, and from how it looked, someone had probably gnawed off the other half. Thus, its medical efficacy had dropped greatly.
