Chapter 41
byBecause I was beaten up.” Facing his elder sister’s inquiry, Su Mu didn’t dare not answer, and while answering, he secretly sized up Su Yan.”
The latter’s face was cold and clear: “Why were you beaten up?”
I was inferior in skill…” Su Mu lowered his head a little.
Why were you inferior in skill?” Su Yan kept asking.”
Su Mu replied listlessly: “I didn’t cultivate well.”
Su Yan nodded slightly: “You still have a bit of self-awareness! Do you know what to do in the future?”
I know.
Remember what you said today. If you dare to be in the future, it won’t be others who will hit you but I will do it myself.
Su Mu’s complexion changed, and he repeatedly promised that he would work hard to cultivate and not disappoint his elder sister’s expectations.
After teaching Su Mu a lesson, Su Yan then raised her head to look at the crowd behind him. Her beautiful eyes swept over and stopped on Yang Kai. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she said: “Was it you who beat Cheng Shaofeng?
Yang KaiSecret passage that this senior sister had good news. She was actually aware of what happened outside while cultivating here. He nodded slightly and said: “Yes.”
“More promising than Su Mu.” Su Yan didn’t pay too much attention. Yang Kai didn’t look very old, but he was already fifteen or sixteen years old. At present, he was only at the eighth level of the Body Tempering Realm. His talent should not be too good, so naturally he couldn’t catch her eye. She was able to say a word to Yang Kai only because he had saved Su Mu.
“Let me give you a word of advice.”
“Senior Sister, please speak.” Yang Kai’s expression was calm.
“Stay away from Su Mu. If you stay with him any longer, your achievements will stop here.”
Yang Kai smiled slightly and didn’t answer. She could belittle Su Mu, but Yang Kai couldn’t.
As soon as Su Mu heard this, his face immediately turned bitter, but he didn’t dare to say a word.
“Get out. I’m going to cultivate.” After saying that, Su Yan closed her eyes again.
A group of people quietly backed out and closed the door. They looked at each other and couldn’t help but take a deep breath. The pressure inside was too great. Although the beauty looked pleasing to the eye, if they stayed for a long time, I’m afraid their bodies and minds would be frozen.”
“I’m going to see how the pills I asked someone to refine a few days ago are doing.” Li Yuntian said and then left.
“I’m going too.” Several people quickly followed.
Soon, everyone dispersed. They each had their own things to do, leaving only Su Mu and Yang Kai.
Seeing that Su Mu seemed to have something to do, Yang Kai smiled and said, “Junior Brother, you go and do your own thing. I’ll walk around here.”
Su Mu nodded and said, “Alright. If you take a fancy to anything, just let me know. I’ll help you check. Although most of the people here are not bad, there are still some who are extremely cunning. Don’t be taken advantage of as a sucker.”
After parting ways with Su Mu, Yang Kai casually walked around in the Black Wind Bazaar.
The disciples of the three sects here were all sitting on the ground, with stalls set up in front of them, placing the things they wanted to sell or putting up signs, writing down the things they wanted to buy.
The stall owners had various postures. Some shouted loudly, like vegetable vendors in the vegetable market, enthusiastically promoting their goods. Some had a haughty look, putting on an attitude of whether you like to buy or not, deliberately posing to attract people to take the bait. There were also those who were bored and actually cultivated on the spot, not afraid that their goods would be stolen. All kinds of appearances, there was no uniformity.
After walking for a while, Yang Kai found that the stalls here were not only selling and buying things, but also some low-level alchemists put up signs to refine pills for others, and did not charge a penny.
Don’t think that they are doing good deeds. In fact, they just need to use other people’s materials to practice. These people’s alchemy, because of lack of experience, eight out of ten furnaces are bad. So the area in front of these stalls is relatively deserted.
It’s just that the number of such stalls is not large. After all, alchemists are relatively rare.
Yang Kai has been paying attention to things with Yang Attribute. In fact, before entering this Black Wind Bazaar, the Yang Source Seal on his chest had already reacted. The chaotic reaction indicated that there were many treasures with Yang Attribute here.
But along the way, Yang Kai found that the grade of many things was relatively low. The Yang Qi contained in those medicinal herbs was not as rich as that overflows from the Dragon Trapping Gorge. Naturally, he doesn’t take a fancy to these.
He also took a fancy to several things, but after asking about the price, he could only shake his head and sigh continuously. The asking price was too high and not something he could afford now.
After turning around for half an hour, Yang Kai got nothing. Instead, he figured out the price of the Small Recovery Pill.
Because the Small Recovery Pill is only for warriors from the seventh to the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm, this kind of pill is probably only worth about fifty taels a piece.
The bottle that Su Mu gave him had ten pills, which means it was probably worth about five hundred taels.
Five hundred taels, it’s really not enough to do anything.
There is a fiery red stone on the stall in front of him. Yang Kai can clearly feel the hot Yang Qi in it, which is much more intense than that overflows from below the Dragon Trapping Gorge. Yang Kai estimates that if he absorbs the Yang Qi in this stone, he can at least condense two or three drops of Yang Liquid, which is equivalent to many days of hard cultivation.
Even though he knew that the stall owner in front of him, who didn’t seem easy to get along with, would definitely ask for a high price, Yang Kai still crouched down in front of him without giving up.
The stall owner had a cold face, as if someone owed him money. He just took a glance at Yang Kai and then ignored him.
Yang Kai pretended to pick up a few other things and asked about the price. The stall owner was stingy with words and answered casually. Then, as if by chance, Yang Kai picked up the fiery red stone and asked, “How much is this?”
The stall owner sneered. This time, he said a few more words: “This is the most expensive thing on the stall, three thousand taels.”
Yang Kai completely had no idea. This was simply asking for an exorbitant price. The asking price differed too much from his bottom line. How could they still talk about it?
Putting down the thing and about to get up, Yang Kai’s shoulder was patted. Turning his head to look, he saw a charming woman smiling at him.
“It’s really you.” Hu Mei’er was quite surprised.
“What’s the matter?” Yang Kai frowned. To be honest, he didn’t have much of a good impression of this somewhat dissolute woman. Although she was dressed quite neatly now, the wantonness of that day had left a bad impression on Yang Kai.
Sensing Yang Kai’s coldness, Hu Mei’er gave him a coquettish look and said in a charming voice, “It’s nothing. Just came over to say hello to you.”
“Hmm, goodbye!” Yang Kai replied gently and turned around to leave.
“Hey…” Hu Mei’er closely followed, walking forward together with Yang Kai, and her delicate body intentionally or unintentionally leaned against him, while looking at Yang Kai’s reaction as she walked.
After walking for the time it takes to burn an incense stick, Yang Kai was a bit depressed. He found that this woman was not only coquettish but also had a thick skin. He clearly didn’t want to pay attention to her, yet she still refused to leave.
“Why are you following me?” Yang Kai stopped in his tracks and was a bit unhappy.
“I’m not following you. This is the Black Wind Trade City. I’m just walking around and looking. What’s the matter? Do you care about me very much?” Hu Mei’er giggled continuously.
“Don’t follow me anymore, or else I won’t be polite to you.” Yang Kai was angry.
Hu Mei’er was not only not afraid but also somewhat eager to give it a try: “How will you be impolite? Like last time?”
