171 The Appearance Of The Soul Devouring Poison. (1/2)
After taking care of everything, Ling Chen left the small temple and went to the nearby market along with little Mei to buy some more provision and daily necessities.
If he was living in the small temple all by himself, he wouldn't need to go out to buy food and provision every two days.
With Ling Chen's strength, he could spend days without eating anything and he would still be fine. However, it wasn't the case for little Mei and her mother as they were both regular mortals without any special power.
Still, Ling Chen didn't feel like they were a bother because of that. As a matter of fact, he enjoyed going to the market with little Mei and living like a regular mortal. It was something he never got the chance to experience even with his Ling Lei and the others as they grew up too fast.
On the way to market, Little Mei held onto Ling Chen's hand tightly as if she was afraid he would run away.
At the same time, she was also happy. She had a huge smile on her face and it looked as though she had already forgotten about all the pain and suffering she had gone through from the past several years.
Every now and then, Ling Chen would tease her which would cause her to giggle from time to time. Despite Ling Chen disguising as a monk, the two of them looked like a happy family of two.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the most bustling streets in the entire Blue Dragon City. The street was normally fifteen meters wide, but there were so many merchant stalls on each side that nearly half the space was taken up, causing there to only be nine meters of walking space left.
Once they arrived there, they were greeted and submerged by an incessant advertising chant.
”If your wife calls you one-minute man, the fastest man alive, come get your Tiger bone pills in our stall and show her who's the boss. However, If she said that you are faster than the speed of light or as fast as lightning, you need the Ultimate Dragon Bone pill.”
”If you want to buy True Qi Stone, Battle Technique, Beauty Pills, come check out our stall, price is negotiable.”
”I have fresh demon wolves' meat, demon tigers' meat. Not only the meats are fresh, but it's also very cheap.”
”If your cultivating speed is too slow.
if you suffer from Qi deviation. If your dantian is broken, I have a legendary divine pill with me. It will solve all your problems. Quickly now, come take a look at the legendary Divine Pill here, it's at a very good price and there's only two left.”
A street vendor loudly shouted.
Many street vendors were shouting at the top of their lungs to find buyers. Some of them displayed their items on their stall for trades while others did not say anything and only waited for the right buyers.
Furthermore, even though there many vendors that were trying to make an honest living, there were also many scammers. There were even more crooks than honest merchants, but they could only fool the inexperienced and the stupid ones.
At this moment, both Ling Chen and Little Mei have become a celebrity.
The moment they appeared, the majority of the street vendors stopped what they were doing and greeted him with a respectful expression of their faces.
”Honored Divine Monk.”
”Honored Divine Monk.”
”Honored Divine Monk.”
As for Little Mei, no matter who saw her would immediately rush over to offer her free stuff.
No matter what she wanted to buy, she would get it for free. While some of them did that in order to thank Ling Chen for helping them, some did it just because they wanted to have a good relationship with Ling Chen.
Since Ling Chen didn't accept any bribe or payment for his service, they used Little Mei as a proxy and transferred all that goodwill and bribery over to her.
........................
After buying everything he needed to buy in the market, Ling Chen didn't linger there anymore as he went home along with Little Mei.
Very quickly, they arrived at the Buddha Miracle Temple. As it was still in the morning and today was also merchant caravans day, Ling Chen didn't expect to get any patient or visit today.
However, the moment he arrived at Buddha Miracle Temple, he saw a sturdy middle-aged man waiting for him.
Aside from looking well-built, the clothes he was wearing were all intricately designed, which indicated that he was a person of wealth.
However, the thing that attracted the most attention was the aura he emitted which was akin to that of a flood dragon.
'Interesting!' Ling Chen thought inwardly as he was scanning the middle-aged man with his left eye power.
He wasn't surprised because he felt a powerful aura coming from the middle-aged man as he was only a peak Martial Sovereign realm warrior.
In Ling Chen's eyes, he was no different from a regular mortal or an ant. Even one of his children could effortlessly kill him without lifting a finger.
