After the secondary occupation reached the maximum level, I wore it

Before heading to the Fulong Mountains, Chen Er once mentioned to Shi Yu that Yan, the manager of Duize Tower, had approached him and was willing to pay a higher price to purchase the talismans she had made.

However, Shi Yu had a bad impression of Manager Yan, and was happy with his business with Tongyi Pavilion, so he directly asked Chen Er to refuse to go.

The talismans she made were three times more powerful than ordinary ones and were very popular among the monks in the market town, bringing a lot of popularity to Tongyi Pavilion.

Manager Yan was naturally jealous and hot-tempered. If the deal failed, he would not hesitate to break up with them.

But this entire market town was built with the support of the Yuxu Sect. After all, Chen Er is an outer disciple of the Yuxu Sect. Isn't he afraid of being blamed by the Yuxu Sect?

Considering that Manager Yan and Lu Yujiao have a very good personal relationship, this matter might have been instigated and supported by Lu Yujiao behind the scenes.

Just as I was thinking about it, the waiter said, "Manager Jiang has been trying to get Duizelou to release the people these days, but they are adamant and don't listen to any advice, no matter what. They are so fearless!"

"I heard that Manager Yan led people into this yard that day and smashed everything without saying a word. Brother Chen Er tried his best to protect it, but... That's all I know. Manager Jiang knows the situation better."

"I understand." Shi Yu's expression was not very good. He glanced at the waiter and said, "Let's go to Tongyi Pavilion first."

The young man nodded repeatedly and led the way respectfully.

Before leaving, Shi Yu took another look at the yard.

The spiritual grains and vegetables in the several square fields had been harvested early, and the water in the bucket was just ordinary well water.

Fortunately, before she left, she told Chen Er that she would be going to the capital soon and would not need to plant spiritual grains anymore. Now, there were only some mundane things in the yard, nothing that would expose her secret.

She lowered her eyelashes, closed the gate, and walked towards Tongyi Pavilion.

As soon as they arrived, Jiang Qihe saw her and hurriedly came over to greet her: "Mr. Shi, you finally showed up."

He was about to speak, but was stunned when he sensed the aura of Yu.

After not seeing each other for many days, he felt that Shi Yu seemed to have become stronger, and he could not even tell how good his cultivation was.

When I first met him, he hadn't yet drawn Qi into his body and wasn't even at the first level of Qi Refining.

Such rapid progress is incredible...

Jiang Qihe calmed himself down, gave up the small talk, and started to talk about the situation in a concise and to the point manner.

In the final analysis, it was Manager Yan who found out that Chen Er was working for Shi Yu and was her servant. When the deal failed, he wanted to use Chen Er to force her.

In fact, it was more likely that he simply wanted to humiliate Shi Yu by exposing his face to this extent.

After listening to Jiang Qihe's words, Shi Yu asked, "He is acting so arrogantly. Isn't he afraid that the monks will be disgusted and stop patronizing Duize Tower?"

Jiang Qihe shook his head: "Although he kidnapped Chen Er as a threat, his reason was very high-sounding."

Shi Yu frowned: "What do you mean?"

Jiang Qihe glanced at her and explained, "Disciples of the Yuxu Sect receive monthly allowances from the sect, so they must put the sect first in everything."

"If you want to earn extra cultivation resources, you can only go to the Gongshan Pavilion in the sect to receive tasks and exchange resources for the contribution points you get by completing the tasks."

Shi Yu understood immediately: "They used the excuse that Chen Er, a sect disciple, was working for me as an excuse?"

Jiang Qihe nodded and said, "In fact, although this rule is in place, there are countless disciples in the sect who accept rewards and work privately. Most of the elders in the sect turn a blind eye to it, making it useless."

"Dui Ze Lou has a close relationship with Yu Xu Sect. This Steward Yan even holds a nominal position as a guest official in Yu Xu Sect."

Shi Yu's eyebrows slightly raised.

So, if Manager Yan used this as an excuse to arrest Chen Er, outsiders would have no right to say anything.

"What's more..." Jiang Qihe hesitated and lowered his voice, "Behind this matter, there is also the figure of Lu Yujiao, the proud daughter of Yuxu Sect."

He paused when he said the words "God's proud daughter", but he felt that Lu Yujiao was far inferior to the young boy in front of him, both in terms of cultivation speed and talent in talisman making. He was not ashamed to say these four words.

Shi Yu didn't know what Jiang Qihe was thinking, so he wasn't surprised by his words.

Previously, Lu Yujiao had falsely claimed the talisman she made, but was immediately exposed in public, causing her to lose face.

It is natural for such a "proud girl" who has been highly praised since childhood to find it unbearable, and it is normal for her to hold a grudge against it.

She tapped the table with her fingertips and turned to look at Duize Building across the street.

Under the scorching sun, there was a constant stream of guests outside Duize Tower and business was booming.

"Thank you, Manager Jiang, for telling me this." Shi Yu turned around and walked towards Duize Tower.

Jiang Qihe was worried that it might not be appropriate for her to go alone, so he quickly told the shop assistant a few words and hurried to catch up with her.

Duize Tower was just opposite, built magnificently. Shi Yu stopped at the door and looked inside.

The guy at the door glanced at her, then saw Jiang Qihe following behind her, and asked with a wary look: "What are you doing?"

Shi Yu said calmly: "Tell you Yan Guanshi to come out and say that Shi Yu is here."

When the guy heard her name, he was stunned for a moment, then immediately turned around and called someone inside.

Shi Yu didn't have to wait long before he saw Manager Yan walk out, squinting his eyes, stroking his hands, and smiling: "Oh, a distinguished guest is here."

Shi Yu didn't want to waste time talking to him, so he asked directly, "Where's Chen Er?"

Manager Yan waved his hand and pretended to scold the people around him, "Didn't you hear the distinguished guest looking for someone? Hurry up and help Chen Er out."

The few people who looked like guards behind him nodded their heads, then turned and left.

Upon seeing this, Manager Yan looked at Shi Yu with a smile and said, "Your Excellency wants to see Chen Er, so there is no harm in meeting him."

He hissed and showed a distressed look: "It's just that Chen Er violated the rules of Yuxu Sect and still needs to follow some disciplines. Therefore, the distinguished guest should just meet you and then go back."

Shi Yu chuckled: "What if I want to take someone away?"

"This..." Manager Yan looked embarrassed, but his eyes were full of calculations, "I'm afraid this is against the rules."

"However, I am not talented, but I have some friendship with the Yuxu Sect. If I go and beg for mercy, it won't be difficult to exempt Chen Er from the discipline punishment, but..."

"Just what?" Shi Yu asked.

Manager Yan glanced at Jiang Qihe behind her and said with a chuckle, "As long as you promise to only sell the talismans you make to Duize Tower in the future, I will do my best to properly settle Chen Er."

After hearing this, Jiang Qihe's eyes narrowed and he looked at Shi Yu with a little nervousness.

The monks passing by on the street noticed the confrontation between the few people and gathered around to watch the fun. Soon they gathered in a circle outside Duize Tower and talked in low voices.

"What happened?"

"Hush, keep your voice down. Did you see that guy? I saw him at the defense line before. Those talismans that are selling well in Tongyi Pavilion are made by him."

"Is this true? Then what's going on now? Why did he and Manager Jiang come to Duize Building?"

"let me tell you……"

Shi Yu's expression remained unchanged and he was not agitated.

Just at this moment, the guards came out carrying the person and threw him at the feet of Manager Yan.

Shi Yu saw Chen Er at Manager Yan's feet and discovered that he was dying and unconscious.

Jiang Qihe, who was standing by, was also shocked. He saw that Chen Er's face was very pale, his lips were dry, and there was a layer of fine beads of sweat on his forehead. He closed his eyes tightly and breathed rapidly, as if he was in great pain.

Through his tattered clothes, one could see that he was badly beaten. The bruises and wounds on his body were shocking, and his hands and feet were bent in strange arcs, obviously his bones had been broken by someone.

Jiang Qihe couldn't help but look at Shi Yu. He saw that she had her eyelashes drooped and couldn't tell her expression clearly.

Manager Yan stroked his beard, kicked the half-dead Chen Er, and asked Xiang Shiyu with a smile: "What do you think, my dear guest?"

Shi Yu raised his eyes and murmured, "You are looking for death."

Manager Yan sneered. He didn't expect Shi Yuzhen to agree. He just wanted to use Chen Er to humiliate her.

Seeing that his face was torn, he stopped calling him distinguished guest. He took out a woman's coat from his storage bag and threw it on the ground. He looked at Shi Yu with an ambiguous smile: "Should I call you Mr. Shi, or... Miss Shi?"

This coat was found out from the closet in the room inside the courtyard.

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Shi Yu in surprise.

Jiang Qihe was even more confused and looked at Shi Yu.

The young man in front of me didn't have outstanding facial features, but he had a slim and tall figure, and had a clear and lively temperament.

Mr. Shi is actually... a woman?

Jiang Qihe felt vaguely that he had overlooked something, but he couldn't remember it for a moment, and his brows were furrowed.

Shi Yu is no longer the helpless person who had just entered the Metaverse. She has already reached the fourth level of Qi Refining. Although it is nothing in the huge Metaverse, at least here, she has the capital to protect herself.

At first, she disguised herself as a man as a way of self-protection due to her lack of cultivation. Now that her identity as a woman has been exposed, it doesn’t matter to her.

But everything that Manager Yan did, whether it was destroying her yard, rummaging through her closet, or beating Chen Er like this, undoubtedly brought bad luck to her.

"You're looking for death." She spoke softly, repeating what she had just said.

After she finished speaking, she put her hands into her sleeves, and when she revealed them again, a stack of talismans appeared in her hands.

Shi Yu raised his hand and asked the audience to take a good look at the talisman in his hand. Then he smiled and said, "These are five second-grade spiritual talismans."

In the market town, even second-grade talismans are hard to find, let alone second-grade teleportation talismans.

Teleportation talismans involve spatial properties and are extremely difficult to make. Even talisman masters of higher levels may not be able to make them, and they have always been in short supply.

And this thing, sometimes, if you use it well, it is like having an extra life.

Suddenly, there was an uproar and everyone around turned their attention to him.

Greed, desire, shock, to name a few.

"The Soul Travel Talisman, it's actually the Soul Travel Talisman!"

"She took out five Soul Travel Talismans at once. Could it be that she made them herself?!"

Shi Yu understood it very well that weapons, pills, formations and talismans brought not only wealth and resources, but also the capital to drive power.

For example, at this moment, her lips slightly opened and closed, and the words that came out of her made the arrogant Yan Guanshi's face change drastically: "Whoever helps me kill him will get these five Lingyou Talismans."
