Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 813: Meet The Wang Clan

After they left Jian Wufengʼs place, Zhang Xiaolong [3] and the others went to Cheng Gaojiʼs residence, where they discussed the new shop.

Cheng Gaoji then informed Zhang Xiaolong [3]. ”Yesterday, Wang Zhemin came to see me, and I have already told him about your intention to open your shop. You should still visit the Wang Clan to talk to him in person; he will help you get shop permits.”

”Opening a shop in this realm requires those kinds of permits, huh?” Zhang Xiaolong [3] muttered to himself.

”Thatʼs right.” Cheng Gaoji nodded at him. ”Unlike in the Red Sun Realm or other realms, this realm has very strict rules, including shop matters. The Nameless One deliberately left such matters to Wang Zhenmin and his Wang Clan, and he did not make exceptions for anyone, including Lin Jingxia.”

”My home realm also has such rules, but they are stricter, and I need various permits to open my shop.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] then asked him. ”What about those luminous qi crystals? Have you contacted your customers to get them?”

”I have asked my customers to bring me those crystals; some will arrive in a week, and others later.” Cheng Gaoji pointed to the back room. ”Because I only have one set of materials, Little Duan is preparing to make another one, and we will finish it in two weeks. Therefore, you have to go to the Blacksmith Union to buy those materials, and we will immediately work on the other four weapons while waiting for my customers to arrive.”

”I went to the Blacksmith Union before, but Ji Changlan wasnʼt there. Since his subordinates cannot access some materials without him, I will wait for him to arrive in this realm in a few days.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] then got up from his seat. ”Iʼm going to the Wang Clan now to take care of the permits so I can open my shop as soon as possible.”

After they left, Cheng Gaoji went to see Duan Zhao to speed up the making of the weapon.

”Have you started your plans, Junior Brother?”

”Iʼve taken over the Alchemy Union in the Shrouded Sky Realm, and I left Shang Yumei there to take care of everything. Hong Xinxin is currently in the Azure Sky Realm, and she has already captured Sun Jianming. However, she still has to wait for Huoyun Zhiyan to arrive in that realm, and I asked her to capture Xiu Hanyu in the Blossom Heaven Realm after that.” Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs answer surprised Lin Moxian and Yan Yinqing. ”One of my other clones is on his way to the Divine Flame Realm now, and Iʼm going to meet Jiang Shen to recruit them into my group.”

”I envy you, Junior Brother.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] turned to Yan Yinqing. ”You are young, but you act quickly and efficiently. You destroyed and took over the Zhang Clan yesterday, and now you have already taken control of the Alchemy Union. Although the abilities of the people from that organization canʼt compare to Aunt Jingxia, their popularity and authority in the middle realms are not inferior to those in the upper realms. Since you have absorbed them into your organization, you can easily master the middle realms.”

”Senior Sister, Iʼm lucky to have my clones, or else I couldnʼt do everything in a short time.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] released a soft sigh before continuing. ”Honestly, if only I had more confidence in my abilities, I could have settled everything a long time ago. Back then, I was too careful because those people were much stronger than me, which caused my problems to drag on. However, the problems in the Red Sun Realm gave me more confidence in my abilities, so I wonʼt delay my problems any longer, and I will solve everything as soon as possible, including my problems with the Heavenly Fox Race.”

”Does that imply that you plan to confront them directly?”

”Yes.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded at them. ”They will arrive in the middle realms in less than a month, and Tian Jianxia can help me track their location, especially since her brother is one of them. I will not face them all at once, and I will fight them one by one. Once they fall into my hands, I will use them to disrupt the situation in the Heavenly Moon Realm.”

Lin Moxian raised her eyebrows. ”If you do that, Tian Baitian and Tian Baixing might make a move on their own, and youʼll be the one at a loss if that happens.”

”They will never make a move on their own, Senior Brother.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] replied confidently. ”Tian Jianxia and Tian Gongzhu told me that demons from various realms have never stopped attacking their realms, so Tian Baitian and Tian Baixing will never leave their realms. If they do that, their realms will fall into the hands of the demons. As long as the two of them donʼt come to me, Iʼm confident I can handle the others. By the way, when will your aunt arrive in this realm?”

”A week or so.”

Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded in understanding. ”I canʼt wait to meet your aunt to talk about alchemy.”

Soon, the three of them arrived at the Wang Clan, and a guard hurriedly ushered them inside after Lin Moxian showed his identity plaque.

When they arrived at the main hall, Wang Zhemin, Wang Xiaotang, and Gong Yulei were already waiting for them there. Their gazes were only on Zhang Xiaolong [3], but their expressions were filled with disbelief after they detected his cultivation, especially since he was able to toy with Wang Yourou with such a low cultivation.

Even so, Wang Zhemin and the others did not dare to underestimate Zhang Xiaolong [3] because his status as Hun Diʼs disciple was obvious, and the Soul Emperor would not take an ordinary cultivator to be his disciple, convincing them that he had many other advantages.

*Drap... Drap...*

Wang Yourou suddenly ran out from inside, especially after a servant informed her of the arrival of Zhang Xiaolong [3] and the others.

Since her grandfather was present in the room, Wang Yourou didnʼt say anything and sat beside her mother, Gong Yulei. Still, she didnʼt stop staring at Zhang Xiaolong [3], and her gaze was so fierce as if she wanted to swallow him alive.

”Senior Sister, stop staring at me like that, or youʼll fall in love with me.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] nonchalantly said this.

Wang Zhemin, Wang Xiaotang, and Gong Yulei were stunned by Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs shamelessness. They were clearly present in front of him, but he paid them no mind.

”You-” Wang Yourouʼs guts shrank as soon as her grandfather glared at her, forcing her to swallow back her anger. ʼTch! This little bastard! Iʼll teach him a lesson later!ʼ

Zhang Xiaolong [3] smiled casually before turning to face the three seniors. ”Senior Wang, what should I do to get permission for my new shop?”

”First of all, please explain to me about your shop.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded and explained to Wang Zhemin about his shop, and he also handed him a bottle of basic pills. The old man and the other two looked shocked as soon as they saw the five pills inside.

Wang Yourou looked confused by her familyʼs expressions, so she walked over to them to look at the pills. She then looked at Zhang Xiaolong [3] with a look full of shock as well.

Zhang Xiaolong [3] then spoke to them. ”Believe it or not, I concocted those pills myself. I am a grandmaster rank alchemist, and I can advance to king rank alchemist whenever I want.”

”Do you have your alchemist identification plaque?” Gong Yulei asked him.

”I am a rogue cultivator, and I donʼt need their recognition, so I have never registered myself with any alchemist organization.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] took out Hun Diʼs plaque. ”If my status as my masterʼs disciple is not enough for you to trust me, I will register with the alchemist organization in this realm.”

Listening to Zhang Xiaolong [3], Lin Moxian and Yan Yinqin laughed in their hearts, and they believed the Wang Clan would not dare to doubt him after he took out their master plaque.

”Naturally, we dare not doubt you, and Yulei will prepare the necessary permits for your shop right now, so you can open your shop anytime.” Gong Yulei immediately left them to take care of everything, and Wang Zhemin returned the bottle to Zhang Xiaolong [3]. ”How much for each of your pills? Do you have more in stock?”

”Senior, I have many shops in other realms, so I canʼt possibly concoct them in limited quantities, right?” Zhang Xiaolong [3] then took out several other bottles. ”For one set of my basic pills, I usually sell them for ten million blue jewels, and people from other realms never stop buying them.”1

”Arenʼt their prices too expensive?” Wang Xiaotang raised an eyebrow in question.

Zhang Xiaolong [3] shook his head in response. ”Senior, you have never taken my pills, so you do not know their effects. Other alchemists may be able to match basic pills, but the effects and potency of their pills will never be able to match mine. If you are interested in my basic pills, I will give you a chance to use them first. If you feel that their effects are not worth the price I offer, then you do not need to pay for them.”

”I agree.” Wang Xiaotang immediately agreed because he did not believe that the effects of Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs pills were that extraordinary, and he did not need to pay for them if the effects were too ordinary. ”You can give them to my daughter and let her try the effects.”

”Sure.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] immediately threw a bottle at Wang Yourou. ”Senior Sister, please swallow them on the spot, so your father and grandfather can feel the changes in you after you swallow my pills.”

”Humph!” Wang Yourou snorted and returned to her seat. She then started swallowing the pills one by one without rushing, so her grandfather and father could follow the changes.

Sometime later, Wang Yourou had finished swallowing the pills and tried to absorb Qi from the air, only to be surprised by the speed of her absorption. She could also feel that her dantian, bones, meridians, and soul were much stronger than before.

Wang Zhemin and Wang Xiaotang seriously observed Wang Yourouʼs body, and the changes in her astonished them.

Yan Yinqing was also astonished by the effects of Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs pills, and she was eager to swallow them. Unlike them, Lin Moxian was no longer surprised because he had swallowed them before, so he knew for sure their effects were extraordinary.

”How do you feel now, Senior Sister?” Zhang Xiaolong [3] posed the question with a playful smile.

”Humph!” Wang Yourou looked at the two seniors. ”Grandpa, I donʼt like this little bastard, but I have to admit that his pills are very effective and potent. The basic pills I swallowed in the past were concocted by Senior Jingxia, and his pills are still much better than hers, let alone the pills sold in this realm. Ten million blue jewels are indeed too expensive, but I think the price is commensurate with their quality.”

Wang Zhemin nodded in understanding before taking out a storage ring and throwing it to Zhang Xiaolong [3]. ”One hundred thousand purple jewels are inside, so you can give me another set of nine.”

ʼHahaha! The systemʼs shop is the best! The price of one set is only one million red jewels, and they can be sold for ten million blue jewels in this realm.ʼ Zhang Xiaolong [3] immediately gave Wang Zhemin another nine bottles, but he then showed them another pill. ”This pill is a superior-grade Yin Purifying Pill, and the Yin Qi produced by the body will be two times stronger and purer, allowing a female cultivator to cultivate faster. I donʼt know if Senior Jingxia has such a pill, but I am confident in the effect of my pill, and I opened the price at one million blue jewels each.”

”Senior Jingxia doesnʼt have this kind of pill, Junior Brother.” Yan Yinqing spoke to Zhang Xiaolong [3]. ”If the effects of this pill are really like what you just said, one million blue jewels for one pill is already too cheap, and you should be able to sell it at a higher price in your shop later.”

Lin Moxian chimed in. ”Yinqing is right, Junior Brother. Perhaps you can sell one pill for five million blue jewels, and the people of this realm will flock to your shop to buy it.”

”Grandpa! I want that pill.” Wang Yourou said to Wang Zhemin as she stared at the pill in Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs hand with great eagerness, especially after she benefited from his basic pills.

Wang Zhemin gave a thousand purple jewels to Zhang Xiaolong [3], who immediately handed the Yin Purifying Pill to Wang Yourou. ”You will like the effect so much, Senior Sister.”

”Humph!” Wang Yourou swallowed the pill without hesitation, and its effects took effect sometime later. ”The pill is truly marvelous, Grandpa! My Yin Qi has truly become two times stronger and purer than before, and I can cultivate faster with this.”

Wang Zhemin nodded and asked Zhang Xiaolong [3] again. ”Do you have the same pills for male cultivators?”

”Naturally.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] then took out two Yang Purifying Pills and showed them to them. ”This pillʼs effect is the same, but this one is specifically for male cultivators.”

”Iʼll buy five of this pill and four of the previous pill.” Wang Zhemin immediately paid nine thousand purple jewels, making Zhang Xiaolong [3] unable to stop laughing in his heart.

Before long, Gong Yulei had returned with several scrolls, and she handed them to Zhang Xiaolong [3] directly. ”You can hang them in your shop, and people wonʼt doubt the credibility of your shop.”

”Thank you, senior.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] immediately stored them. ”Since my business here is settled, we will be leaving now. I will open my shop in a few days, and there are many other items that I will be selling there later, so you can visit my shop to have a look.”

After Zhang Xiaolong [3] and the others left, Wang Zhemin gave Gong Yulei one set of basic pills and one Yin-purifying pill. ”That kid concocted these pills, and Yourou has already tested their effects.”

”Are their effects that amazing?” Gong Yulei asked her daughter.

Wang Yourou nodded at her. ”Once that little bastard opens his shop, this realm will definitely be in a great commotion, and people will undoubtedly flock to his shop to buy them. By the way, I want to go out to buy something.”

Without waiting for their consent, Wang Yourou hurriedly left their clan. Wang Zhemin realized his granddaughterʼs intention, but he no longer stopped her. ”For now, we will wait for that kid to open his shop, and I will look at his other pills or items. If all his items are exceptional, we have to establish a good relationship with him.”

”Yes, Father.”

”Hey! Wait for me!”

Zhang Xiaolong [3] and the others turned to Wang Yurou directly. ”Why are you following us, Senior Sister? Are you interested in me now?”

”Shameless!” Wang Yurou shouted at him. ”Where are the three of you going now?”

”I want to look for some materials to renovate my new shop a little.”

”Oh.” Wang Yourou nodded slightly. ”In that case, I will join the three of you, and I will take you to the best material shop in this realm.”

Lin Moxian laughed inwardly as he patted Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs shoulder. ʼSince Wufeng has forgotten Yourou, you can approach her if you want. If you can get her, the Wang Clan will always have your back, and it will be beneficial to you.ʼ

ʼThis woman is not bad, but she is too arrogant, Senior Brother.ʼ Zhang Xiaolong [3] then nodded to Wang Yourou. ”Please lead us there, Senior Sister.”
