I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 69: It turns out these were all tests

Su Jinxi looked at Feng Wuxin, who was unable to move due to the pressure of her aura, and reached out a finger to lift her chin.

"Hmm, what are you doing in front of this clinic?"

"I……"

Feng Wuxin swallowed hard; she was truly terrified by the aloof and beautiful demon woman before her.

"Don't move, or I might kill you."

Su Jinxi smiled, her tone languid and alluring. She glanced inside and saw a woman being treated, who seemed to be seriously injured. Then she looked at Feng Wuxin, her gaze falling on the gold badge pinned to Feng Wuxin's chest.

That gold emblem looked very familiar. "Are you from the Golden Phoenix Jewelry Company?"

Su Jinxi knew the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop all too well. This shop had branches all over the Xuan Tian Realm, and they even did business with the demon race. They truly believed in seeking wealth and fortune through danger. In order to make money, they could even ignore the hostility of the demon race towards humans. Su Jinxi admired these people to some extent.

Moreover, the Golden Phoenix Treasure Company is very powerful, and it is said that there are several Mahayana stage cultivators stationed there.

Although there are no supreme saints, cultivators in the Mahayana stage are already very strong.

“I am… Feng Wuxin, the president of the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop.”

Feng Wuxin took a deep breath before daring to reveal her name. The beauty's aura made her feel very uncomfortable, but upon hearing her name, Su Jinxi narrowed her cat-like eyes.

"Your surname is Feng?"

"..."

Who is Feng Chongyu to you?

Feng Chongyu, a cultivator at the first level of the Mahayana stage, is also the former president of the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop. Behind the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop stands the ancient clan of the Feng family. It is precisely because of the support of such a powerful force that the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop has been able to expand its business so far.

“That’s my grandfather.”

Feng Wuxin answered somewhat reluctantly.

She felt deeply saddened by this thought. Her father was Feng Chongyu's eldest son, but he died young, and his eldest daughter-in-law also died of illness. She, his youngest granddaughter, was now exiled to this Riyan Dynasty. She truly felt very little of the kinship and affection she had.

Upon hearing that she was Feng Chongyu's granddaughter, Su Jinxi frowned slightly, then relaxed her brows.

How did that old man's granddaughter end up in this place as a branch manager?

It's not in line with my status!

"Yesterday my master saved two human girls, were they your people?"

Feng Wuxin nodded, trying her best not to let the word "master" from Su Jinxi's mouth affect her mood, and took out the wooden box from her arms: "I'm here to thank him."

Su Jinxi took it and opened it. Inside were ten gold bars and a lot of Golden Phoenix Tickets.

Golden Phoenix Tickets are for mortals; each ticket can be exchanged for an equivalent amount of gold at the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop.

"Hmph, you're quite clever. My master is currently in the mortal realm, and giving him some money from mortals would suit his taste perfectly."

Su Jinxi glanced disdainfully at the gold bars and notes, then tossed the box back to her.

"Senior, could you... let me go?"

Feng Wuxin gritted her teeth and squeezed out a few words with difficulty.

She almost thought she was going to die here. This demon woman was really too strong. Feng Wuxin was not old, only seventeen years old, and her talent in cultivation was not outstanding. She only had the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage. Compared with those truly famous geniuses, she had no advantage. However, she was an unexpected genius in business.

But none of that matters. What's important is that this demon woman's power is far greater than Aunt Yuan's!

She even addressed that young master Gu as "master"!

All of this made Feng Wuxin realize that the Gu Family Medical Clinic was a terrifying place where a hidden dragon lay!

"Heh, look at you like this, I haven't even done anything to you yet." Su Jinxi suddenly withdrew her oppressive aura. "Alright, since you've come to express your gratitude, then go in. Don't worry about anything, he's very easy to talk to."

Exhausted, Feng Wuxin collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

She rubbed her bottom, got up, and found that Su Jinxi was gone.

"...How terrifying."

Feng Wuxin muttered to himself.

Just now, she truly felt what it meant to be overwhelmed by an overwhelming pressure.

She also decided that she would be more careful in considering this matter of seeking cooperation, which was disguised as "thanking thanks," and she must not offend Young Master Gu in the slightest!

Young Master Gu is easy to talk to, but the people around him are definitely not to be trifled with!

Feng Wuxin was already a little scared by Su Jinxi's domineering attitude from the start.

She walked into the front yard, but before she even entered the gate, it seemed as if a force swept over her, making Feng Wuxin nervous again. She looked around and finally saw the plaque.

"...Who's watching me?"

Naturally, these inner questions remained unanswered, so she had no choice but to continue walking inside. When Aunt Yuan saw Feng Wuxin enter, before she could say anything, Gu Heng came out, carrying five jade bottles in his hand.

"Madam Yuan, please take this medicine back..."

Gu Heng looked up and saw that there was another person in the room, a young girl with a good figure, but whose appearance showed that she was quite young. He stopped talking abruptly.

"Mr. Gu."

Feng Wuxin quickly stepped forward and bowed gracefully to him.

Gu Heng: "?"

Two beautiful ladies showed up at the door so early in the morning!

Back in Qingmu City, his eyes had never enjoyed so much happiness all at once. Now that he's in Yunling City, could it be that his luck has turned around?

“My name is Feng Wuxin. I am the branch manager of the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop in Yunling City. Last night, you saved my two maids. I have come here today to express my gratitude.”

After speaking, Feng Wuxin placed the wooden box containing gold bars and gold notes on the table.

Gu Heng walked over calmly, gently opened the box, and couldn't hide the smile in his eyes when he saw the fleeting golden light inside. Wow, so much gold!

"President Feng, I only helped others casually, so I will reluctantly accept this gift as a token of my gratitude."

He coughed, a somewhat embarrassed expression on his face, as if he couldn't refuse and had no choice but to accept the reward with a smile.

Feng Wuxin quickly waved her hand, saying only polite words such as "This thanks are too little." After a few words, Feng Wuxin apologized and said, "I'm really sorry, I hope that Aunt Yuan and I have not offended you."

Aunt Yuan?

Gu Heng glanced at Feng Wuxin and that Lady Yuan, and suddenly realized what was going on.

Oh... so this was a test by the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop!

President Feng wanted to know if he, as a medicine-making physician, truly possessed the skills, so he sent a close associate to test him. However, it was obvious that he passed without any difficulty!

"You two put on quite a show. It seems Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop wanted to test my skills. So, are you satisfied now?"

Gu Heng wasn't annoyed, knowing that such things were unavoidable.

They're in business too, so of course we have to be careful.
