The Omniversal Merchant-Chapter 220: The Arrival of the Strong
Chapter 220 - The Arrival of the Strong
Early the next morning, Wei Yi and the Third Elder arrived at the alley where Origin Mall was located.
The Medicine Valley disciples had not followed them.
After all, the Third Elder had never entered Origin Mall before—once he confirmed its worth, they could come in the following days.
However, as Wei Yi and the Third Elder approached, they were stunned by the scene before them.
At the entrance of Origin Mall, several people were already waiting.
Upon closer inspection, these were familiar figures.
Ji Wuhui, Old Bai, Murong Haitang, Ying Wuji, and Xia Yuan—these five were among the most powerful patrons of Origin Mall.
Wei Yi had believed they had arrived early enough, yet these figures were here even before them!
It seemed they had been waiting for quite some time.
Additionally, Liu Ruyu and Wu Ying were present.
Beside them stood a powerful, unfamiliar figure.
Wu Ying stood respectfully behind this man.
The man's appearance was unremarkable, clad in a black robe embroidered with golden patterns, a long blade strapped to his back.
Yet simply standing there, he exuded the presence of a drawn blade—radiant, sharp, and breathtakingly dangerous!
A true master of the sword!
Beside Liu Ruyu, a woman dressed in flowing blue gauze stood gracefully.
She possessed delicate, exquisite features, a slender figure, and a mesmerizing presence.
Just a glance at her left people awestruck, as if she could steal their very souls.
Compared to her, even Liu Ruyu seemed several times less captivating!
The arrival of Wei Yi and the Third Elder drew everyone's attention.
To be precise, all eyes fell on the Third Elder.
Even with his aura restrained, his presence could not be hidden.
He had already touched the realm of Eminence, and that overwhelming sense of pressure was unmistakable!
A soft, silvery laugh rang out from the enchanting woman.
Her eyes sparkled with mischief, and she smiled teasingly.
"Tsk tsk, isn't this the famous fool of Medicine Valley? What brings you here? Have you finally abandoned your secluded little sect?"

Fool.
It was a well-known nickname in the cultivation world.
Very few knew the Third Elder's real name, Almanac.
The reason for this title?
His obsession with alchemy.
He had spent decades refining pills, caring for little else.
The Third Elder snorted coldly.
"Liu Rumei, mind your own business!"
The seductive woman, Liu Rumei, was an elder of the Jade Pool Holy Land—and also Liu Ruyu's sister.
The Jade Pool Holy Land was a sect composed entirely of women.
At this moment, Old Bai and the others were equally surprised.
The name "Foolish Taoist" was well-known throughout the cultivation world.
"A foolish Taoist—what a rare sight! Could it be that you've also come because of Origin Mall?" Old Bai asked with a smile.
The Third Elder nodded. "Naturally."
He could sense that these people were all at the peak of Pathseeker, just one step away from Eminence.
Moreover, their backgrounds were extraordinary.
By observing their auras and the emblems on their robes, the Third Elder quickly deduced their identities.
The Royal Family, Profound Moon Academy, Soaring Cloud Academy, the Wu Clan, and the Jade Pool Holy Land.
Each of these figures was an exceptional powerhouse in their own right.
Even though the Third Elder had already touched the realm of Eminence and had immense confidence in his strength...
Facing so many top-tier powerhouses, he naturally would not act arrogantly.
Yet deep down, he felt a sense of disbelief.
It's just a shop... and it has gathered this many peak cultivators?
It seemed his decision to come was absolutely correct.
Initially, he had some doubts about Wei Yi's claims.
No matter how trustworthy his disciple was, hearing something secondhand was still unreliable.
But now...
All of his doubts had vanished.
"When will Origin Mall open?"
A hoarse, impatient voice broke the silence.
Wu Daoxu spoke, his eyes burning with anticipation.
