The Omniversal Merchant-Chapter 185: A Familiar Scene

Chu Yangping frowned.

Why was an instructor from Moon Star Academy—a peak Pathseeker—showing such respect to this shop owner?

Who was this man?

An uneasy feeling crept into his heart.

But he quickly shook it off.

Ridiculous.

They had two peak Pathseekers, an eighth-rank Pathseeker, and two fifth-rank Pathseekers.

Even against a First-Grade Eminence, they could hold their ground for a time.

There was no way someone at that level would be running a small shop.

Then, under Chu Yangping's gaze, a young man stepped out from the store.

The moment he saw Luo Chuan, he knew.

This was the man who killed his son.

"No," Luo Chuan said, shaking his head.

Ying Wuji and Xia Yuan felt a pang of disappointment but didn't dare to protest.

Even after their breakthroughs, making them far stronger than ordinary peak Pathseekers, they wouldn't stand a chance against five Pathseekers at once.

And the destruction that would come from such a battle?

Nine Stars City would be ruined.

Luo Chuan had no intention of letting that happen.

He glanced at the five figures before him, hands behind his back, voice calm.

"So, you're the Palace Lord of Silver Moon Palace?"

Chu Yangping's pupils contracted sharply.

Ji Wuhui had already described this man.

This chapt𝓮r is updat𝒆d by ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom.

And the intuition deep within his soul confirmed it.

This was the one who had fought him before.

"Destroy him!" Chu Yangping bellowed, his spiritual power surging.

The four elders followed instantly, their combined power shaking the heavens.

Above Nine Stars City, dark clouds gathered, swirling ominously.

A terrifying aura pressed down over the imperial capital.

The five moved in perfect synchronization, unleashing their most powerful technique.

They weren't giving Luo Chuan a chance to resist.

The sky flashed.

A brilliant silver light pierced through the darkness.

The storm clouds parted, revealing a massive silver moon hanging in the sky.

Its presence, alongside the sun, created an eerie and unnatural sight.

Luo Chuan stood there, hands still behind his back, watching the celestial display.

"Just like last time," he muttered.

During his previous battle with Chu Yangping's Soul Projection, he had seen this technique before.

But now, with five Pathseekers working together, its power had multiplied several times over.

This was an attack that could threaten an Eminence.

The people of Nine Stars City noticed the phenomenon.

After all, it was impossible to ignore.

"Why did the sky suddenly darken?"

"Wait—there's another moon!"

"Hold on... doesn't this feel familiar?"

"That's right! When the Soul Projection fought in Nine Stars City a while back, it used the same technique! But this one is way stronger!"

"Does that mean that expert is here in person?"

"Damn! I hope the senior protecting the city can hold them off. Nine Stars City has seen too much chaos lately..."

Cultivators across the city watched with serious expressions.

But unlike before, they weren't panicking.

After everything that had happened recently, they had learned to stay calm.

If the sky was falling?

Someone else would catch it.

And if the royal family wasn't panicking, why should they?

Inside the Imperial Palace.

Ji Wuhui gazed at the sky.

The massive silver moon loomed above.

But instead of feeling nervous...

He almost wanted to laugh.
