Immortal Cultivation Families: The Rise of the Jinling Immortal Clan

Chapter 5: Buying and Stolen Goods, Encountering a Robbery

After wandering around for a while, Xia Yuhui found his target, Wanfu Pavilion. Without hesitation, Xia Yuhui went straight in.

"Sir, what would you like to buy?" A young woman ran up to greet you as soon as you entered.

"My lady, I'd like to sell some spirit wood." Although the young woman was only at the second level of Qi Refining, Xia Yuhui did not look down on her and politely bowed.

“Oh, if you wish to sell some spirit wood, then I can make that decision.”

After saying that, he led Xia Yuhui to a room and poured him a cup of tea. Xia Yuhui did not drink it, but instead took out what he wanted to sell, including two flying swords.

After seeing the two flying swords, the girl judged Xia Yuhui to be a wicked cultivator who killed and stole treasures, but she didn't care at all.

After assessing the value of these items, he said to Xia Yuhui, "Fellow Daoist, the total value of these spirit trees is 220 spirit stones, while these two flying swords are damaged and can only be valued at 150 spirit stones. I wonder if this price is acceptable to you?"

After thinking it over, Xia Yuhui decided to sell. Although he didn't know the actual value of these items, how could such a big store possibly deceive a mere Qi Refining cultivator like him? Damaging the store's reputation just to earn a few spirit stones was something no smart person would do.

After obtaining the spirit stones, Xia Yuhui asked the woman to take him to buy magical artifacts. The woman led him to a middle-aged shopkeeper, bowed, and left.

"Hehe, I wonder what kind of magical artifact you'd like to buy, friend?" the middle-aged shopkeeper said very politely to Xia Yuhui.

Xia Yuhui hesitated for a moment before replying, "Shopkeeper, I want to buy a defensive magic item."

"Oh, I wonder if you know the price of defensive magical artifacts."

Xia Yuhui: "Of course I know that."

Upon hearing this, my shopkeeper immediately laughed: "Since you want to buy, I'll listen to you."

Then he took out four boxes from his storage bag and opened them one by one in front of Xia Yuhui. At this moment, Xia Yuhui's eyes were already red. To be honest, he really wanted to take all these things for himself, but he knew he couldn't do it. Not to mention the shopkeeper in front of him who had hidden his cultivation level, even the two gatekeepers were two late-stage Qi Refining cultivators. How could he make a move?

The shopkeeper simply smiled calmly at Xia Yuhui's reaction. After Xia Yuhui recovered, the shopkeeper explained the four defensive magical artifacts one by one.

"Fellow Daoist's first item is called the Azure Sun Shield. It is a first-tier mid-grade defensive magic weapon made of spirit gold. It was crafted by the weapon-refining master, Master Tao, and its total value is 300 spirit stones."

The second magical artifact was also made by Master Tao, but it was slightly more valuable, with a total value of 490 spirit stones. It was made from the shell of a golden tortoise and was a first-grade high-quality defensive magical artifact.

The third magical artifact, named Valley Bell, is also a first-tier high-grade defensive magical artifact, valued at 540 spirit stones. It was sold to our shop by a customer. This magical artifact can not only defend but also be used for attack. It can be said that with the spirit stones used to buy a defensive magical artifact, you can buy both a defensive and an offensive magical artifact.

The last item, the Purple Gold Wave, is a top-grade first-tier magic weapon passed down in my sect. Not only is its defense astonishing, but it can also emit sonic waves to bombard enemies, making it an ultimate weapon in both offense and defense. Naturally, its value is also slightly higher, totaling 2500 spirit stones.

Actually, after hearing the price of the first magic artifact, Xia Yuhui didn't need to listen to the prices of the other magic artifacts, but he just wanted to see them for himself, so he didn't stop the shopkeeper. Now, he has gotten his wish.

"Shopkeeper, I want to buy my first defensive magic artifact," he said, handing over 300 spirit stones.

The shopkeeper looked disappointed. He knew this young man couldn't afford too many spirit stones, but selling one item was still a good result.

He smiled and handed over the ritual implement.

"Shopkeeper, I'd also like to buy a Breakthrough Pill," Xia Yuhui said to the shopkeeper after accepting the magic item.

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper immediately showed a delighted expression, "Good, good, good! We've finally gotten a decent customer today."

He immediately took out a box from behind, slowly opened it, and a fragrant aroma filled the air. Inside the box lay a pill that emitted a delicate fragrance.

Shopkeeper: "One Breakthrough Pill, total value for today: 200 spirit stones."

After paying the spirit stones, Xia Yuhui immediately took the Breakthrough Pill and walked out of the shop. Once outside, he didn't show any expression or make any big movements. He calmly glanced at the eyes staring at him from all sides and slowly walked to the other side of the street.

After leaving the market, Xia Yuhui glanced back and revealed a sinister smile.

Then, using the Xia family's swift movement technique, he ran quickly into the woods.

Not long after Xia Yuhui ran into the woods, two men with imposing appearances arrived at the spot where Xia Yuhui had just been standing. A white ferret scurried out from one of the men's sleeves and began to chatter.

"Brother, this seems like a tough nut to crack. Should we still give chase?" another burly man said upon seeing this.

"Heh, tough one, let's chase him! I want to see just how tough he is."

The two men ran into the woods, and after chasing each other for a while, more than a dozen fire snakes shot out from the depths of the forest. The two burly men had already known that Xia Yuhui was going to launch a sneak attack, so they immediately used their flying swords to block the fire snakes, and then used the wooden spike technique to pierce into the depths of the forest. The wooden spikes were instantly swallowed up by several fire snakes.

"Do you two really want to drive us to our deaths? How about we each take a step back and call it quits?" Xia Yuhui slowly walked out of the woods.

"Hahaha, I thought you were some tough guy? Turns out you're just a greenhorn. Kid, you'd better hand over your storage bag, and if I'm in a good mood, I might spare your life."

Another burly man chimed in, "Yes, yes, kid, be smart. Have you ever heard of the infamous Pan Yun Duo?"

"Hehehe, you two fellow Daoists are truly talented. One is a rogue cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining, and the other at the seventh level of Weapon Refining, yet you dare to use names like 'Double Fiends.' It seems you don't know the meaning of death. Do you see the surrounding environment? The scenery here is beautiful, with birds singing and flowers blooming, and no one has come here for many years. This is the burial site that I have chosen for you two. I wonder if you two fellow Daoists like it?"

"You smooth talker, you won't hand it in, huh? Then go die."

The burly man immediately unleashed several fireballs at Xia Yuhui, who nimbly dodged them. Then, wielding two flying swords, he charged forward. The two burly men also attacked Xia Yuhui, each wielding a mid-grade first-level flying sword. Upon seeing that the seventh-level Qi Refining man was using a mid-grade first-level flying sword, Xia Yuhui immediately knew that the battle was in his favor.

Just as he was getting into a heated fight with the two men, a white weasel suddenly jumped out of the big man's sleeve and bit Xia Yuhui. Caught off guard, Xia Yuhui was bitten hard on the left shoulder.

The burly man at the seventh level of Qi Refining seized the opportunity and stabbed Xia Yuhui in the right shoulder with his sword. Xia Yuhui immediately used the Fire Serpent Technique to repel the man and then retreated rapidly.

But the other burly man didn't give him a chance. Just as he was about to rush over, he was met with a violent blow. A bolt of crimson lightning struck his chest directly, and the burly man screamed in agony before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.
