Lin Xia's job search went very smoothly. In just a few days, she found a job that suited her, and it was exactly the job that Lin Xia was interested in.

The "Wuwutong Grocery Store" is not on the main street of Tai'an City, but is located in a more remote market town. The store is not big, with only one floor and is of medium size. However, due to the rich variety of goods in the store, it is very popular among monks, so there are quite a few monks who come to patronize it.

Moreover, this grocery store is very close to the house where Lin Xia rents, just across the street, making it convenient for Lin Xia to travel back and forth.

What excited Lin Xia the most was that the owner of this grocery store was a talisman practitioner at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage. He could already draw fourth-level talismans and had obviously entered the ranks of intermediate talisman masters.

The owner's surname is Yu. He is not good at speaking, but he is very gentle and friendly. After agreeing on the remuneration and working hours with Lin Xia, he gave some instructions and went back to the inner room.

The business in the store is very good. In addition to Lin Xia, there is another clerk.

The business in the store is very diverse. Not only does it sell talismans, pills, monster blood and other commodities, it also buys back spiritual herbs, minerals, spiritual weapons, skills, etc. from the monks outside.

In and out, make a profit from the difference.

In short, Lin Xia has been here for two days and has finally seen what a grocery store in the world of cultivation is like. It is really full of strange and wonderful things, with everything you can imagine.

The owner was not often in the store, spending most of his time studying talismans in the room behind the grocery store. The business mainly depended on Lin Xia and another employee, a male cultivator named Zheng Qi.

In fact, Lin Xia secretly wanted to learn talismans from the store owner, but the store owner stayed in the inner room most of the time, and Lin Xia had to greet customers in the outer shop and organize the goods to be sold in the store. It can be said that he had no time to spare.

There were not many customers in the store that day, so Lin Xia and Zheng Qi had some free time. Lin Xia was flipping through a book about talismans that had just been collected when three monks walked in from outside.

The people who came were two women and one man. They all had extraordinary temperaments, their clothes and accessories were shining and colorful, and they were surrounded by spiritual light. It was obvious at a glance that they were not ordinary people. Looking at their demeanor, it was obvious that they were disciples of a major sect.

Lin Xia and Zheng Qi looked at each other and both stood up eagerly. Disciples from such large sects were the most generous, and it seemed that big business was coming.

Lin Xia took a few steps forward, a smile on her face. "Hello, fellow Daoists! Our Wuwutong Grocery Store has a wide range of goods at fair prices. What can you three do for me?"

Hearing this, the three cultivators all looked at Lin Xia.

It was at this moment that the pink-dressed woman and the green-dressed man among the three people saw Lin Xia's appearance clearly. They were both stunned and then called out Lin Xia's name in unison, "Lin Xia!"

Hearing the two people calling out her name, Lin Xia was also stunned. After a careful look, she recognized the people and asked, "Chu Minghua, Qin Daoyue, why are you two here?"

The remaining female cultivator in green heard the conversation between the three and asked in surprise, "Do you know each other?"

Even Zheng Qi was surprised.

Chu Minghua was the first to react. He suppressed the emotion on his face and introduced Lin Xia to the green-clothed female cultivator, "Junior Sister Qi, this is Senior Uncle Su Jianfeng's niece, Lin Xia. She is from the same place as Junior Brother Qin and I."

He then looked at Lin Xia, "This is Qi Ling, Junior Sister Qi, also a disciple of Xuantian Sect, and I am a disciple of the same peak."

In the world of cultivation, status is determined by strength. Lin Xia was unable to detect the cultivation levels of the three people opposite him, but she knew that their cultivation levels were all higher than hers. So, without any hesitation, she bowed to the green-clothed female cultivator and said, "So it's Senior Sister Qi."

Hearing that Lin Xia was the niece of Uncle Su, Jian Feng's master who had mutated ice spiritual roots, Qi Ling couldn't help but feel surprised and puzzled. If she had such a backer, how could Lin Xia be working as a handyman in a remote grocery store?

Lin Xia didn't think much of it. Seeing someone she knew here was truly unexpected. Thinking of Su Linghan, who she hadn't heard from in a long time, she couldn't help but feel excited. She quickly looked at Chu Minghua, "Minghua, do you have any news about my uncle?"

Chu Minghua nodded, his eyes falling on Lin Xia's face, "Master Su has been in seclusion since returning to the sect. I heard that his realm is loosening and he is ready to break through to the Golden Core stage."

"That's good, that's good." Lin Xia's heart finally settled down. She hadn't received any message from Su Linghan for such a long time. Although Lin Xia didn't say it, she was still worried in her heart. Now that she suddenly saw an old friend, she couldn't help but ask. Only after getting the confirmed news did she feel relieved.

Then, he couldn't help but wonder why Chu Minghua and Qin Daoyue appeared in Tai'an City. "Why did you come to Tai'an City? It shouldn't be close to Xuantian Sect."

Before Chu Minghua could speak, Qin Daoyue beside him started to speak sarcastically, "Why do you care about us? But you, you don't want to stay in the Su family. I'm afraid you were kicked out because your qualifications are too poor?"

Chu Minghua looked a bit embarrassed after Qin Daoyue interrupted him, his face darkening slightly, but he didn't lose his temper. After a pause, he smiled and said, "There have been unusual movements of demonic beasts in Qingyu Mountain, hundreds of miles away from Tai'an City. The Xuantian Sect office in Tai'an City informed the sect, and they sent elders to investigate. We followed them here to gain experience."

"So that's how it is. I was wondering why so many cultivators have come to our store to resell monster corpses these days." Lin Xia didn't realize it at first, but after hearing what Chu Minghua said, she suddenly realized it.

Looking at the thoughtful Lin Xia, Chu Minghua asked, "Why are you in Tai'an City?"

Lin Xia smiled and said, "I was unhappy staying at the Su family, so I left. Thinking that my uncle was in Xuantian Sect, I came to the Northern Territory."

"See, I told you I was kicked out." Qin Daoyue, who was standing next to him, came out to make his presence felt again. This made Chu Minghua feel awkward again.

However, neither Chu Minghua nor Lin Xia responded to his words. Lin Xia couldn't help but roll her eyes at Qin Daoyue countless times in her heart. This man was still so annoying.

Qi Ling, on the other hand, was impressed by Lin Xia's frank attitude, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Xia changed noticeably.

However, Lin Xia didn't notice. What she was most interested in now was the unusual movements of the monsters in Qingyu Mountain. "So, are you guys leaving the city now?"

"We just arrived in Tai'an City today. The elders wanted us to stay in Tai'an City for two days to gather some information and make sufficient preparations before going there. After all, we brought a lot of Qi Refining disciples to gain experience this time." Chu Minghua did not hide anything and told Lin Xia the situation.

Next, Chu Minghua and his friends bought some defensive talismans at the "Wuwutong Grocery Store" and left. When leaving, Chu Minghua and Lin Xia left each other the spiritual power imprint of the jade slips for communication so that they could communicate in the future.

After receiving several more waves of customers, it was time to close the store. Lin Xia and Zheng Qi closed the store and started to reconcile the accounts for today.

"So you are from the Su family in Zhongzhou?" Zheng Qi couldn't help but ask curiously.

"My mother and my uncle are members of the Su family. I am not a member of the Su family. I was just staying in the Su family temporarily before." Lin Xia's face was expressionless.

Seeing that Lin Xia was unwilling to talk, Zheng Qi suppressed his gossipy heart. After spending these days together, Zheng Qi had already figured out Lin Xia's temper.

At this moment, the shop owner came out from the back room and said, "You two don't need to come tomorrow. We will close the shop for three months. I plan to go to Qingyu Mountain to look for opportunities."

Lin Xia and Zheng Qi were both delighted. In fact, they were also very interested in the unusual movements of the monsters in Qingyu Mountain.
