Illusional Sea City!
Friend Xu, here are the Spirit Stones! If you’ve got more pills in the future, be sure to look for me first!”
A good-humored old man, holding a storage bag filled with Spirit Stones, hands it over to Xu Mu.
After tallying the Spirit Stones, Xu Mu says with a smile, “Shopkeeper Huang, rest assured! When I come to sell pills next time, I’ll definitely look for you first!”
Without spending much time on small talk, Xu Mu takes his leave.
After going out the door, he changes his identity multiple times before finally reaching the inn where he is staying.
Unexpectedly, the Stay Age Pill is so popular! It seems coming here was the right choice!”
Stashing all of the Spirit Stones into a storage bag and staring at a stack of medium-grade Spirit Stones, Xu Mu is in high spirits.
Originally, he was prepared to struggle fiercely. After all, he had no channels and didn’t know any local cultivators. He only had scattered information he had collected in advance. It was almost the same as starting from scratch.
However, after arriving in Illusional Sea City, he just put out a little news, and the apothecary shopkeepers couldn’t help but flock to him. In less than a month, all the Stay Age Pills he had accumulated were sold out.
He did not encounter the difficulties he had when trying to sell the Foundation Establishment Pills.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. One can easily test whether or not the Stay Age Pill is real by simply taking it.
But who dares to do such a thing with the Foundation Establishment Pill?
Moreover, other organizations are not short of Foundation Establishment Pills!
Another reason is that Xu Mu was too careful in selling his pills in order to hide his identity. With the Foundation Establishment Pill already difficult to sell and his added caution, buyers were even more reluctant.
Fortunately, the profit from the Stay Age Pill exceeded his expectations. In the future, even without the Liyang Sect’s channel, he could still live comfortably.
These next few days I can roam around the city, buy a few gifts for the girls, then go back!” Xu Mu thinks to himself.
Boom! Boom!
Just as he was about to meditate and cultivate, a knocking sound suddenly came from outside the room.
Who is it?” Xu Mu asks warily.
The Thunder-cutting Sword already appears in his hand and flickers with lightning.
The inns where cultivators stay don’t have any “servants” delivering water. Unless he asks for it himself, there should be no one knocking at the door.
Mu Yunwan from the Butian Pavilion, looking for an audience with Pill Master Xu!”
A sweet and glutinous voice comes from outside the room. It sounds like honey wrapped in sugar, sweet to the ear, and even sweeter to the heart.
Xu Mu’s eyes flash with even more vigilance.
There was clearly a mesmerizing effect in this voice.
I’m not surnained Xu, nor am I a Pill Master. You’ve found the wrong person! Xu Mu refutes outright.
The girl outside chuckles!
The next moment, the door is pushed open from the outside with a click.
A woman in a pink dress walks in from outside.
With bright eyes and white teeth, a slim waist that can be encircled by a grasp, her entire body is like a fully ripe peach in October, full of endless temptation from the inside out.
However, what draws more attention is the red bloom between her eyebrows, like a bloody flower on the other side.
Xu Mu’s face turns awful.
What a messed-up top-tier inn that allows people to just stroll in so casually.
Xu Mu secretly activates the Formation token, intending to activate the room’s Formation and escape through the window. Even though the woman before him is only late-stage Foundation Establishment, and he would probably win in a fight, Xu Mu dislikes taking risks. Besides, she belongs to the Butian Pavilion. If he kills her, the trouble is probably even greater than from the Liyang Sect.
Unfortunately, no matter how he manipulates the token, the Formation shows no response.
Pill Master Xu, don’t bother!
Mu Yunwan gives him an irresistibly charming smile, a token appearing in her hand out of thin air.
She places the token on the table.
Yours is a sub-token while mine is the master token. Without my permission, the Formation won’t stop!”
Butian Pavilion really knows how to do business!” Xu Mu grinds his teeth.
This is even more disgusting than a hotel in his past life having a spare key.
Pill Master Xu, instead of complaining about this, why don’t you sit down and chat with this young lady?”
Mu Yunwan is all smiles, completely indifferent to Xu Mu’s mockery.
I don’t know you, nor am I the person you’re looking for, so I genuinely have no idea what we would chat about?” Xu Mu remains vigilant.
The sudden visitor whose intentions are unclear and exposes such a danger of the inn is likely to harbor ill intentions.
Could this not be made by you?”
Mu Yunwan takes out a bottle of top-grade Stay Age Pills and puts them on the table.
No!” Xu Mu’s denial remains firm.
Mu Yunwan doesn’t mind and continues to smile. “Miss doesn’t mean any harm, just sign this contract and you can go wherever you want!”
Mu Yunwan takes out a contract made of animal skin and places it on the table. Seeing that Xu Mu doesn’t want to come forward, she flicks her sleeve and the contract flies in front of Xu Mu. He can’t avoid looking at it.
It’s a good thing he didn’t, but upon seeing it, Xu Mu nearly has a stroke.
Hand over one-third of my divine soul and produce free pills for you for fifty years, you really dare to ask!”
Xu Mu is so angry his teeth are nearly crushed.
He has never even seen the other party before and never provoked the Butian Pavilion. On the other hand, it is the people from the Butian Pavilion who have repeatedly and inexplicably made his life difficult.
