41: Once the elixir is sold, the spiritual stones will be credited to your account.

Fourth Senior Sister’s voice transmission appeared, saying, “We’re setting off…”

Fourth Senior Sister was at Liu Ru Shi’s home. Tang Tian arrived at Liu Ru Shi’s residence, a grand compound with red walls, where more than twenty Lianqi Fifth Level Cultivators had gathered.

Liu Ru Shi said, “Fifth Senior Brother, you’re here.”

Tang Tian had concealed his cultivation at the Qi Refining stage, 3rd level, so no one paid him any mind when Liu Ru Shi called out.

Tang Tian nodded.

Liu Ru Shi handed him a pile of jade slips, saying, “Fifth Senior Brother, these are the Formation diagrams for you.”

Liu Zi looked at him with hostility. He was a Lian Qi Second Layer Cultivator and Liu Ru Shi’s older brother.

Liu Ru Shi had only told her father about Tang Tian’s Lianqi Fifth Level cultivation, not anyone else…

Liu Zi looked at him with an inexplicable hatred, which Tang Tian found very strange.

Tang Tian put the jade slips into his storage ring and didn’t bother with them further.

The Lianqi Fifth Level Cultivator in front of him was named Liu Lie, Liu Ru Shi’s father. Liu Lie said, “Zi’er, guard the house well.”

Tang Tian noticed that Fourth Senior Sister was actually above them. Fourth Senior Sister floated down from the sky.

This was a Paper Puppet; Fourth Senior Sister’s true self was unknown.

However, Liu Ru Shi and the others didn’t recognize it.

Liu Lie said, “Everyone, let’s go.”

Everyone mounted their Spirit Beasts and departed. Liu Zi looked at Tang Tian taking the jade slips with resentment.

Tang Tian was curious how this person, with only Lian Qi Second Layer cultivation, dared to resent him. Tang Tian felt a wave of disdain for the Yu Family in his heart. Was this all the Yu Family was capable of?

As they exited the city gate, Yu Ping was distributing porridge. He didn’t recognize Tang Tian… after all, he was wearing black clothes and riding a horse.

While serving porridge, he said, “Everyone, eat more porridge to warm yourselves. Don’t worry, my Yu Family won’t kill people casually.”

The remaining people from other families nearby, disguised as assassins, tried to assassinate him but were dealt with by the Yu Family guards.

Tang Tian sighed. Yu Ping was indeed not suitable to be the Family Head…

Jinque City was a thousand times larger than Qingmu County… inside, Cultivators were as numerous as clouds, and Foundation Establishment Cultivators were not few. The headquarters of the Green Mountain Sect was located in Jinque City…

Liu Ru Shi was unaware of the situation and thought it was just an escort mission. The twenty-odd people around them also just thought this Immortal had many enemies.

They were even made to practice the Blood Evil Refining Method, not knowing what they would face.

Tang Tian naturally wouldn’t say anything, as Fourth Senior Sister’s Paper Puppet was right in front.

The Spirit Beasts were indeed fast; they reached Jinque City in a few hours…

Fourth Senior Sister’s Paper Puppet said, “Everyone, rest for a bit. Gather the people from the escort agency. We depart in two days.”

It then left.

They respectfully bowed, saying, “Immortal Master, rest assured, we will do our utmost.”

Tang Tian only said, “Senior Sister, farewell.”

More than twenty escort agencies, over two thousand people, gathered, but all looked haggard, with blood overflowing from their bodies.

Even though Tang Tian hadn’t learned Alchemy yet, he knew they wouldn’t live long.

However, seeing the black lines on their hands, Tang Tian was shocked.

That was Evil Qi!

But there were only one or two lines. Among the two thousand escort agency Disciples present, the highest cultivation was only Lian Qi Second Layer.

Ever since Chi Fanzi forced them to practice the Blood Evil Refining Method, they had sent their Disciples to Jinque City first.

Liu Ru Shi said, “Senior Brother, with Fourth Senior Sister’s high cultivation, why does she still need our escort agency people to come first and help her escort things? Do you know what it is?”

Tang Tian trembled, feeling something in the dark watching him. It was Fourth Senior Sister’s Divine Sense left there. Tang Tian said hoarsely, “…I don’t know…”

Tang Tian said, “I’m going for a stroll.”

Tang Tian left.

It was night in Jinque City, unlike Qingmu County, there was no curfew at night.

The lowest cultivation of Cultivators walking on the streets was all at the ninth level of bone refinement. It was truly extraordinary; there were basically no Mortals…

“Yunshui Pavilion Auction House is holding an auction! It starts promptly at midnight, don’t miss it, everyone.”

A Yunshui Pavilion attendant was constantly shouting in the streets. Jinque City was indeed great; Qingmu County never had auctions.

Even the Spiritual Qi in Jinque City was a bit more abundant than in Qingmu County.

A Qi Refining stage, 3rd level beggar was telling fortunes for people, which was quite lively. He stole the fortune teller’s Spirit Stone bag and ran, and two Cultivators chased him down the street, looking quite comical…

An auction… Tang Tian was indeed tempted.

He casually wandered into a Medicinal Pill shop, where the lowest cultivation of Cultivators inside was Qi Refining stage, 1st level.

Even at night, there were many people.

The attendant said, “Guest, we accept all Medicinal Pills here. What do you need?”

The ones serving Tang Tian were all Lian Qi Second Layer Cultivators.

Tang Tian asked, “How much is this?”

Tang Tian took out a poisonous plant.

“Huh? Guest, please wait.” The attendant was surprised. So this person came to sell Spirit Medicine. He took the poisonous plant and left.

Soon, a dog ran out. It seemed to be the person in charge. It seriously tasted the Spiritual Plant and nodded.

Seeing it wearing a purple ribbon, it should be a female dog. Da Huang should like it.

The attendant said, “Guest, our shopkeeper said this poison is one year old and can be purchased.”

Tang Tian said, “Your shopkeeper is quite accurate.”

Tang Tian was silent for a long time before saying this sentence.

The dog barked at him, telling him to go to the secret room to talk. Tang Tian asked the attendant behind him.

Tang Tian asked, “Can this shopkeeper talk?”

The attendant said, “Oh, it’s our shopkeeper’s Spirit Beast. Our shopkeeper is a Personal Disciple of the Green Mountain Sect and doesn’t usually come here.

“Don’t underestimate this dog; it’s a Lianqi Fourth Level Cultivator.”

The attendant reminded Tang Tian.

He didn’t expect someone to treat a dog as a Spirit Beast, but remembering his own pet, Da Huang, this shopkeeper had quite good taste.

Inside the secret room, the Pill Furnace was hot. An old man with white hair stood by, serving. Although not a pharmacist, the ledger in his hand indicated his high position.

The dog barked.

The old man was startled, instantly closed the ledger, and said, “Young friend, please sit.”

The old man asked, “How many more such poisonous plants do you have? I’ll buy them all for twenty-five Spirit Stones.”

Twenty-five Spirit Stones. It seemed Yu Ping really didn’t give him too little.

Tang Tian said, “One hundred ninety stalks.”

The old man said disappointedly, “Too few.”

No, Tang Tian was stunned. Four thousand Spirit Stones were still too few?

The old man said, “Little Six, come here and help this guest verify.”

The attendant named Little Six, who was behind, came over. The old man went to flip through the ledger, muttering to himself, and the dog wagged its tail listlessly on the ground.

The attendant said, “Guest, I’ll help you verify.”

No, these people, one by one, changed their expressions too quickly.

The attendant was enthusiastic. Tang Tian laid out the poisonous plants.

The attendant carefully checked the age and the poisonous plants, saying, “This is not a poisonous plant; it’s a Spiritual Plant that has been contaminated into a poisonous plant. The price can be five Spirit Stones higher.”

Tang Tian nodded. Yu Ping’s performance made him think that over two hundred Spiritual Plants were incredible, but it turned out to be just this.

After the attendant finished checking, he said, “Guest, it’s a total of five thousand two hundred Spirit Stones. What do you think?”

“Mm.”

Tang Tian suppressed his joy. He couldn’t lose composure like Yu Ping. A pile of Spirit Stones was taken out by the old man.

The attendant asked, “Guest, do you need to count them?”

Tang Tian said, “No need.”

Tang Tian shook his head. With his cultivation, he could tell the quantity with a glance of his Divine Sense.

He put the Spirit Stones into his storage ring.

Tang Tian asked, “Do you also buy Spirit Fruits?”

The attendant quickly said, “Yes.”

Tang Tian took out the Spirit Fruits. These were just picked today and had grown out, so their quality was very poor.

The attendant said, “These are Yellow Rank Fifth Grade. Unfortunately, they were picked too early and are only worth fifty Spirit Stones.”

Tang Tian took twenty pieces. He was afraid of being targeted if he took too many.

Another thousand Spirit Stones were credited to his account.

Tang Tian said, “What about these Spirit Seeds?”

Tang Tian took out a cabbage seed. After multiple cultivations, it was already a Spirit Seed. The attendant pondered for a moment and said, “Seventy Spirit Stones.”

Actually, Spirit Tree saplings were more valuable, but Tang Tian didn’t dare to sell them.

“Guest, where did you get so many Spirit Medicines?”

The attendant asked curiously, and even the old man and the dog looked over curiously.

Tang Tian said sadly, “There was a change in my Family, and as the eldest son, I could only sell them.”

Family? So he was a prodigal son, selling ancestral property. The old man and the dog looked at him pitifully. Alright, they believed him.

The old man said, “Guest, if you have difficulties in the future, come to our Medicine Cauldron Pavilion. We’ll buy everything. Little Six, give him another hundred Spirit Stones…”

Tang Tian sold ten pieces, and seven hundred Spirit Stones were credited to his account. The attendant also handed Tang Tian an extra hundred Spirit Stones.

If it weren’t for Chi Daizi, Tang Tian should have already developed in Jinque City. He didn’t expect Spirit Medicine to be so valuable…

However, preserving his life was the most important thing. He should first go to the Auction House to see if there was anything good…
