Long Road to Stardom

Lin Xing hurried to the cave he rented. He didn't even see the figure of the cultivator who chased him out from the exchange and sighed repeatedly.

Quickly return to the cave, there seems to be some unusual movement in the storage ring.

She immediately stopped and looked around, and found that the 'note transmission note' given by Lei Hongyu was emitting light.

She quickly took out the 'Transmission Note' and injected a trace of spiritual power into it. An anxious voice instantly drilled into her ears, "Sister Lin Xing, do you have any news about the 'True Source Pill' in Dan City? The injury on the eldest brother seems to be getting worse."

"Sister Lin Xing, the Third Elder cannot go to Dan City. He had already left Tianyuan City to find Elder Danfeng when I returned to Tianyuan City. He asked the remaining disciples to take good care of the eldest brother and wait for him to come back."

"Sister Lin Xing, if there is a 'Zhen Yuan Dan' at the auction, you must get it at all costs. Senior Brother's injury has suddenly taken a turn for the worse, and we can't wait any longer. The Third Elder is not here, and none of us can stabilize Senior Brother's injury."

When Lin Xing heard these words, a trace of panic flashed through his heart.

After a long while, she calmed down and said to the 'Note Transmission', "Lei Hongyu, I have found an alchemist to refine the 'True Origin Pill'. I will send it to 'Tianyuan City' in two days. You must not let the injury of Senior Brother get worse."

After Lin Xing finished speaking, she put away the 'Note Transmission Sound', sent the two little guys back to the cave, and turned to run towards the 'Lingyuan Pavilion' in Dancheng. At this moment, she didn't care about her image anymore.

When they arrived at the 'Lingyuan Pavilion', there were many cultivators coming and going, and Lin Xing's appearance immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Soon, laughter rose and fell all around. Perhaps Lin Xing had expected this, and there was no ripple in his heart. He directly said to an attendant of the Lingyuan Pavilion, "I want to see your shopkeeper."

Before the attendant could say anything, a female cultivator nearby sneered and said, "Who do you think you are? You can meet me whenever you want. How can you be so bold as to not even reveal your true face?"

"I don't have much face, but it should have!"

After Lin Xing finished speaking, he shook the sixth-grade alchemist token in his hand.

Upon seeing this, the servant quickly invited Lin Xing to the VIP room. The female cultivator blushed with shame and anger, and dared not stay any longer, so she left Lingyuan Pavilion in a panic.

Lin Xing stayed in the VIP room. While waiting, she simply did some hair treatment. After a while, a middle-aged monk who looked a little plump came.

The middle-aged cultivator hurriedly came to Lin Xing and said, "I am Qian, the shopkeeper of Lingyuan Pavilion. What is the name of this alchemist?"

"My name is Su Qing. I came to Lingyuan Pavilion to ask for a favor."

"What, you are the Sudanese master?" Shopkeeper Qian said in disbelief.

"Is there anything wrong, Manager Qian?" Lin Xing asked with some confusion.

"No. Nothing's wrong."

"When I heard the magpie's call this morning, I knew something happy would happen today. I didn't expect that it was Master Sultan who came to visit Lingyuan Pavilion."

"Just now, Master Sultan said that he had something to ask for. I don't know what it is, but he needs you to come in person."

Shopkeeper Qian said in a slightly flattering voice.

He really didn't expect that the Sultan Master, whom many forces in Dancheng wanted to win over recently, had not yet been found, but suddenly appeared in front of him. Shopkeeper Qian always felt that it was a little unreal.

Lin Xing was even more puzzled. From the tone of Shopkeeper Qian, she knew that the name Su Qing seemed to be quite famous in Dan City.

But she didn't have the heart to ask about such trivial matters now, and said to Shopkeeper Qian directly, "I heard that Lingyuan Pavilion has a Qingyuan Fruit, is it true?"

"Oh? So Master Sultan came to Lingyuan Pavilion for the Qingyuan Fruit."

Shopkeeper Qian paused for a moment and then continued, "Your pavilion does have a 'Qingyuan Fruit'. Is Master Sultan interested in this 'Qingyuan Fruit'?"

Lin Xing pursed his lips and said calmly, "I need this 'Qingyuan Fruit' to make a batch of elixirs recently. I wonder if you can give it to me."

"Master Sultan, you also know how rare this 'Qingyuan Fruit' is. Your pavilion is the only one in Dan City that has one. There are countless monks who want to exchange or buy the 'Qingyuan Fruit', but your pavilion has not agreed to any of them."

"Master Sultan wants to take away the 'Qingyuan Fruit'. Your Excellency must see if Master Sultan is sincere."

At this time, the local money shopkeeper had returned to his nature as a businessman and responded.

"Of course, this alchemist is not the kind of person who would ask your pavilion to give you the Qingyuan Fruit for no reason."

"As far as I know, your pavilion originally only sold spiritual herbs and natural treasures. In recent years, you have added a counter to sell elixirs, but it seems that the elixirs are difficult to sell, and you may even suffer losses."

When Manager Qian heard this, he was quite surprised and said, "I didn't expect that Master Sultan, who is not from Dancheng, knows so much about your situation."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xing explained, "No, no, I just need to ask Lingyuan Pavilion for help."

"Master Sultan is really a joker. This is something that ordinary people cannot understand."

"But since you've said that, what do you think?"

"Please don't embarrass me, Manager Qian. I don't have any brilliant ideas, but as long as your pavilion sells the 'Qingyuan Fruit' to me, I am willing to refine a certain amount of elixirs for our pavilion for free every month for a period of three years."

"I wonder what Shopkeeper Qian thinks."

After thinking for a moment, Manager Qian said, "Master Sultan, three years is indeed a bit short."

"If it can be raised to ten years, I will immediately offer you the Qingyuan Fruit."

"Manager Qian is such a joke. Ten years is too long."

"My bottom line is five years at most. If Shopkeeper Qian is still unwilling, I will have no choice but to leave."

After saying that, Lin Xing stood up and prepared to leave.

Just as he was about to move, Shopkeeper Qian stopped him and said, "Master Sultan, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"We can still discuss it."

"Manager Qian, I have just made the conditions very clear. If you want to add more conditions, I will have no choice but to give up this 'Qingyuan Fruit'."

"Master Sultan, you are joking. I stopped you and naturally agreed to the conditions you mentioned. I will have someone send the 'Qingyuan Fruit' over right away."

When Lin Xing heard this, he returned to his seat, picked up the tea on the table and started drinking.

Soon, a servant came over with a jade box.

Shopkeeper Qian took the jade box and handed it to Lin Xing.

Lin Xing took the jade box, opened it slightly and took a quick look. It was indeed the Qingyuan Fruit. He put the jade box aside and said to Shopkeeper Qian, "Shopkeeper Qian, how many spirit stones does this Qingyuan Fruit cost?"

"Master Sultan, you are being too polite. Since we have reached a cooperation agreement with your pavilion, how can I accept the spirit stones? I will naturally give them to you as a gift."

"Manager Qian, I dare not accept this loss-making deal."

"Tell me what the conditions are!"
