Eternal Life: Hundredfold Rewards-Chapter 288 - 175: Vigilance_2

Moreover, the anomalies related to it happened right by my side, making it even more worth being vigilant about.

Besides, the most crucial factor in this matter is the anomaly. On the contrary, if Qi Chuan were to take the initiative to contact the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect, there wouldn’t be much of an issue.

"Perhaps, I should leave."

Qi Chuan sighed slightly in his heart.

Although I just bought this Natural Residence and have only opened it for a few days, leaving so soon seems like a loss, but that is a minor issue and won’t cost many Spirit Stones.

My safety is the real issue.

In Qi Chuan’s view, there shouldn’t be any possibility of being passively entangled with powerful forces, especially a massive entity like the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect.

Maybe Qi Chuan is overthinking it, which would be for the best.

But now, Qi Chuan’s thought is to break off any connection with the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect first.

Currently, it seems that there is an invisible connection between myself and the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect.

I am currently at Xiaoxia Restaurant, which is one of the largest cultivation marketplaces under the Luoxia Sect. And the Luoxia Sect has various anomalies directly connected to the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect.

Doesn’t this mean that I have a direct anomaly connection with the Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect right now?

This is deadly.

This must not happen.

"I should go sell off the Natural Residence at a low price, exit Xiaoxia Restaurant, and even leave Dafeng County." Qi Chuan resolved, putting the thin booklet in his Qiankun Bag at his waist, and stood up straightaway.

His plan is to go to the steward of Xiaoxia Restaurant and sell the shop at a low price.

In general, the steward at Xiaoxia Restaurant only accepts registrations for transfers and does not accept selling shops; even transferring stores requires a fee.

However, selling at a low price is different.

No one refuses a deal where they can buy a shop at a low price and make a profit.

"Shopkeeper, how many Spirit Stones for this Tier One Top Grade Fireball Talisman?"

Just as Qi Chuan stood up, ready to head to the steward of Xiaoxia Restaurant and sell the shop, he was suddenly interrupted by a young and beautiful female cultivator before him.

Qi Chuan couldn’t help but frown slightly as he looked at the female cultivator at the counter.

Although this female cultivator seemed very young, Qi Chuan, with his keen eyesight, could tell at a glance that she was nearly forty.

Not just some young female cultivator, but rather a beautiful woman with some charm.

Moreover, she had a Qi Refining Ninth Layer cultivation.

This is obviously not normal in Xiaoxia Restaurant.

To know, in Xiaoxia Restaurant, even seeing a Qi Refining Middle Stage cultivator is rare, generally, those seen are mostly at Qi Refining Fourth and Fifth Layers, Qi Refining Sixth Layer is even rarer, let alone Qi Refining Ninth Layer?

And the Magic Robe that the female cultivator wore looked ordinary but seemed to be of a high grade for Qi Refining cultivators.

"You want this Tier One Top Grade Fireball Talisman?"

"Let it be according to market price."

After briefly scanning the female cultivator, Qi Chuan directly said.

Although I now want to go to the steward of Xiaoxia Restaurant and sell off the shop, I can handle this business at hand first without spending much time.

On the contrary, refusing to do business outright, claiming bankruptcy to close down, seems odd, especially with such a Qi Refining Ninth Layer cultivator in front of me.

It might even waste more time if it arouses her suspicion.

"Huh? According to market price?" Hearing this, Gu Yan looked at Qi Chuan with some surprise, lingering on his clear and unworldly face for a moment, feeling even more curious.

Indeed, this female cultivator was none other than Gu Yan, the female elder of Luoxia Sect, her reputation second only to the sect leader, the most renowned Foundation Establishment Seed of the Luoxia Sect.

The reason she came to this shop named Natural Residence naturally had a cause.

On the day when Supreme Elder Fan Chi announced that the True Inheritance of Myriad Flowers Immortal Sect would descend on Luoxia Sect a month later, the sect leader of Luoxia Sect, Yuan Xiu, discussed various matters and details with the elders, in front of Fan Chi, and the plan was approved by Fan Chi.

The plan decreed that the setup within the sect was to be personally supervised by the sect leader Yuan Xiu.

While the setup outside the sect was left to a few other elders, although these elders’ tasks were also under Yuan Xiu’s personal supervision.

Gu Yan, being the most famed Foundation Establishment Seed apart from the sect leader Yuan Xiu recently, had extremely important responsibilities.

That is, some cultivation marketplaces under the Luoxia Sect!

So today, she personally came to this Xiaoxia Restaurant.

Although there was some open or covert struggle with the sect leader, with the Supreme Elder’s instruction, Gu Yan dared not to defy in the work arrangement at the cultivation marketplaces.

For the potential future she imagined, she decided to give her all to do the setup work at these marketplaces well.

For this, she decided to conduct an undercover visit without wearing her Elder’s Robe, first secretly exploring within Xiaoxia Restaurant, collecting some information, and even investigating if there were any anomalies in cultivators, such as demon cultivators.

In the past two days, she had secretly visited many shops within Xiaoxia Restaurant. Today she finally came to this Natural Residence.

Actually, the shop Natural Residence wasn’t on her priority list for a secret visit, it was initially supposed to be visited later, now it belonged to an earlier decision.

The main reason was that Natural Residence was a newly opened shop, bought at a considerable price in a remote location, replacing the former Qingliu Pavilion, yet the business was quite unexpectedly good!

This piqued Gu Yan’s curiosity, so after secretly visiting some shops in Xiaoxia Restaurant with bustling business, she came to this Natural Residence.

This was indeed a surprise, as she found that Natural Residence had a large number of Tier One Top Grade Talismans, even Tier One Top Grade Elixirs, and the quality was quite superb, much better than other shops within Xiaoxia Restaurant.

This was very abnormal.

To know, Tier One Top Grade Talismans and Tier One Top Grade Elixirs correspond to the realm of Qi Refining Perfection.

And Luoxia Sect was merely a Foundation Establishment Sect.

There was only one Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator, Supreme Elder Fan Chi, while the strongest apart from him was the sect leader Yuan Xiu, at the realm of Qi Refining Perfection.

Gu Yan herself was only at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer, not even at Foundation Establishment Perfection.

Hence, to find so many Tier One Top Grade Talismans and Tier One Top Grade Elixirs in this Natural Residence was indeed astonishing for Gu Yan.

What’s crucial was that their quality and grade were so high, and they were sold at the normal market price, which seemed even more unusual, should it not be priced at a premium?

"However, looking so handsome, and having an excellent temperament, should not be a demon cultivator..." Gu Yan mused to herself.

"Perhaps a Talisman Maker? An Alchemist?" A thought flashed in Gu Yan’s mind, yet upon observing the opponent’s Qi Refining Fourth Layer cultivation, she dismissed the idea.

With only a Qi Refining Fourth Layer cultivation, even with extraordinary skills in talisman making and alchemy, it’s impossible to produce Tier One Top Grade Talismans and Elixirs.

"Perhaps this person is merely helping to sell the talismans and elixirs of someone behind them, who might be a Tier One Top Grade Talisman Maker or Alchemist." Gu Yan speculated internally.

Various thoughts passed through her mind, but Gu Yan did not reveal them. Instead, she calmly paid Qi Chuan some Spirit Stones at the market price, buying a Tier One Top Grade Talisman.

She didn’t leave immediately after and continued to look around the store at talismans and elixirs, secretly watching Qi Chuan and his transactions with other customers.

Soon, Qi Chuan finished all customer transactions, leaving only Gu Yan in the store.

Then Qi Chuan frowned slightly at this Qi Refining Ninth Layer female cultivator, saying indifferently: "Customer, are you considering buying something else? Haven’t found anything you like yet?"

Originally, Qi Chuan had noticed that this female cultivator was different from other customers, thinking that she would leave after completing her purchase.

Unexpectedly, she didn’t leave and stayed in the store until now.

This made Qi Chuan a bit impatient.
