173: Chapter 173 Discovering an Opportunity

As soon as Yun Chenfei and the old man entered the door, they saw two little children about five or six years old running over to them.

"Grandpa!"

"Grandpa!"

The two little children shouted happily as they ran.

"Hey!"

"Wenwen, Lele, did you two cry at home today?"

The old man pulled the two children into his arms and asked with a face full of kindness.

"No, we were very good at home today."

The two little children said in their milky little voices.

"By the way, young man, I still don't know what to call you."

"My surname is Zhao, and my given name is Hai. These are my grandson Zhao Wen and my granddaughter Zhao Le."

Holding a child in each hand, Zhao Hai looked at Yun Chenfei and asked.

"Uncle Zhao, you can just call me Xiao Yunzi."

"Hello Wenwen, Lele."

As he spoke, Yun Chenfei rummaged through his bundle.

He then took out the pastries he had bought while Zhao Hai was away delivering goods.

"You haven't eaten yet, have you?"

"Here! Big brother brought these specifically for you."

Handing over two portions of pastries, Yun Chenfei said with a smile.

"Thank you, big brother!"

The two little children said in unison, then took the pastries Yun Chenfei handed them and ran happily into the house.

"You are very thoughtful, young man. My grandson and granddaughter are good in every way, they're just a bit greedy for treats."

Zhao Hai said, glancing at Yun Chenfei gratefully.

"They're children; they're all the same."

"Uncle Zhao, I also bought some roast chicken and beef. Please heat them up, and we can make do with them for dinner."

Yun Chenfei then took two roast chickens and some beef out of his bundle.

"Young man, how can I accept this? You've already spent so much just after arriving."

Seeing this, Zhao Hai quickly spoke up, feeling embarrassed.

"Haha, I've just arrived in Pingan Prefecture and am a stranger in a strange land. In the coming days, I'll surely have to trouble you to do some things for me, Uncle Zhao."

Yun Chenfei stuffed the roast chicken and beef into Zhao Hai's hands and then said with a smile.

"I can't speak for other things, but when it comes to Pingan Prefecture, there isn't a place I don't know. If you need anything, young man, just give the word."

"I'll go heat these things up now. Just treat this place as your own home; don't be a stranger."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Hai walked toward the nearby kitchen.

At dinner, perhaps because they hadn't eaten meat for a long time, the two little children not only finished the pastries Yun Chenfei had brought but also gnawed a whole roast chicken clean.

Early the next morning, Yun Chenfei had Zhao Hai take him to the most prosperous and bustling part of Pingan Prefecture.

He then gave the man some silver to buy some medicine that could increase Qi and blood, in order to recover his Qi and blood which were depleted due to his injuries.

The most prosperous and bustling place in Pingan Prefecture was Wangyue Pavilion, where Yun Chenfei was currently located.

Not only did high-ranking officials and nobles from the Mortal world gather here, but many Cultivators also liked to come here to exchange cultivation resources.

To put it simply, Wangyue Pavilion was a relatively large free trade market where many items of dubious origin could be traded.

This was one of the reasons why the place was so lively.

In less than half a day after arriving, Yun Chenfei discovered someone with purple Luck. As for a destined protagonist with golden Luck, he had not yet found one.

Opening the System panel, Yun Chenfei scanned a person with a purple glow above their head.

Name: Tu Weishan

Identity: Personal Disciple of the Tianxin Sect

Physique: Netherfire Spirit Body (Purple)

Cultivation: 8th Grade Spirit Refining Realm

Innate Divine Abilities: Blazing Incineration, Exploding Flame Beads

Secret Divine Abilities: Fire Spirit Possession, Fire Control Secret Method

destiny value: 8250 (Purple)

Favorability: 0 (Stranger)

Current State: Abundant Qi and blood, long-established fame, minor Opportunity, great Luck, Fire Spirit Possession, above-average aptitude, minor reputation.

Recent Situation: Opportunity 1: In one hour, he will meet an oddly-looking Foreign Merchant in Wangyue Pavilion and buy a seven-leaf golden sun ganoderma from him for one thousand five hundred silver taels.

Opportunity 2: Three months later, on the way back to his Sect, he will pass by a dilapidated temple and obtain the ancient secret manual, the Muscle-Tendon Changing Classic, from inside a damaged Buddha statue.

Character Profile: A supporting character in "emperor rushes to the nine heavens." Tu Weishan, a Personal Disciple of the Tianxin Sect, sees his Qi, blood, and Physical Body strength surge after consuming the seven-leaf golden sun ganoderma and subsequently learning the ancient secret manual, the Muscle-Tendon Changing Classic. This causes his Netherfire Spirit Body to evolve into the Nine Nether Fire God Body. After cultivating to the 7th Grade Spirit Condensation Realm, he offends the destined protagonist over a good-looking woman and is slain by the other party using a secret technique despite the difference in their cultivation levels.

"As expected, those who fight over women with a destined protagonist never come to a good end."

"He can buy a seven-leaf golden sun ganoderma for only one thousand five hundred silver taels, and even pick up an ancient secret manual like the Muscle-Tendon Changing Classic in a broken temple."

"Tsk! This guy's Luck is pretty good. It's a pity he fell for someone he shouldn't have and insisted on fighting the destined protagonist for a woman. If you don't die, who will?"

"If he hadn't fought over a woman with the destined protagonist, this guy would have been at least a regional overlord in the Late Stage."

After scanning Tu Weishan's personal information, Yun Chenfei thought to himself while stroking his chin.

"The seven-leaf golden sun ganoderma is just what I need to replenish my Qi and blood. As for that ancient secret manual, the Muscle-Tendon Changing Classic, I don't know if it will help restore my Meridians. I'll just take them both after I've replenished my Qi and blood."

"Considering you've brought me two good opportunities, I'll give you a hand if I have the chance in the future."

A moment later, Yun Chenfei's gaze moved away from Tu Weishan.

After scanning the area and finding no one else with purple destiny values, he found a corner and began to rest with his eyes closed.

During this time, he would occasionally open his eyes to scan the crowd and the entrance of Wangyue Pavilion.

First, he was checking for any newcomers with high destiny values, and second, he wanted to intercept that oddly-looking Foreign Merchant in advance.

He needed to get his hands on the seven-leaf golden sun ganoderma before Tu Weishan did.

After about another three-quarters of an hour, a person in strange clothing caught Yun Chenfei's attention.

The man had a high, protruding forehead, a sunken nose, small squinty eyes, and a face as long and narrow as a horse's.

One look at this face was enough to make anyone never want to look at him again.

"Does this count as an oddly-looking person?"

Seeing that the man's clothing and appearance were clearly different from those around him, Yun Chenfei immediately concluded that this must be the Foreign Merchant who would sell the seven-leaf golden sun ganoderma to Tu Weishan.

He glanced at Tu Weishan in the crowd out of the corner of his eye and saw that the other man had not yet noticed the Foreign Merchant.

Yun Chenfei was delighted and hurriedly went to meet him. Not only was his body currently very weak, but he also had no cultivation at all. If he didn't intercept this Foreign Merchant in advance,

Once the Foreign Merchant and Tu Weishan made contact, he would have no leverage to compete with Tu Weishan at all.
