Chapter 1690: Chapter 907: Since Ancient Times, Heaven’s Will Is Hard to Fathom (Part 2)

"Hmm, you may rise."

After speaking, Zhao Sheng looked at Mu Zha and instructed, "Zhazha, leave a mirror body to act as the shopkeeper of the shop. Then, you’re free to go out and play!"

Ecstatic, Mu Zha leaped three feet high, "Thank you, Master! Once I’m outside, I promise not to cause any trouble."

Seeing this, Zhao Sheng warned with concern, "You can play, but don’t leave this star system. Also, if you encounter danger, come back immediately!"

Mu Zha nodded repeatedly, its face already exposing its excitement and eager intentions.

A breath later, Mu Zha suddenly split into two, with one silently stepping forward in front of the four people, while the other Mu Zha cheered joyfully before suddenly vanishing into thin air.

Zhao Sheng watched, directing his gaze at ’Mu Zha’ and the four people, and sent them a Divine Thought.

Then, he took a step forward and instantly disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Mu Zha’s expression became solemn as it sharply turned to look at the four individuals, speaking seriously, "Report your names and cultivation levels, as well as the skills each of you specialize in."

"I’m Zhaozhong Zhen, my cultivation is at the Late-stage Nascent Soul. I excel in dual cultivation and song and dance, and I am a master of the Three Hundred and Sixty-Five Cave Room Techniques..."

"I am Zhao Hualin, at the Golden Core Perfect Realm. I excel in Artifact Refining and identification, and I am a master of over a hundred and thirty different scripts, including..."

"I am Zhao Changyong, at the Divinity Transformation Ninth Layer, and I specialize in nearly a thousand Demon Secret Techniques. I can also set up various high-level arrays, the highest being the Sixth Rank Yin Yang Tai Chi Array..."

"I am Zhao Yue Ru, at the Nascent Soul Third Level. I excel in Alchemy and Planting Hundred Medicines. Yue’er can refine more than one thousand two hundred Spirit Pills and is a master of poisoning and Gu Technique..."

...

Three days later, the shop space had expanded dozens of times, with the interior completely transformed, the medicine shelves and counters had become rows and rows of antique racks.

Each antique rack was filled with all sorts of treasures.

The racks were mainly adorned with rare objects and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and also consisted of numerous Magical Treasures and talismans, along with countless ’specialties’ from All Heavens, all amassed from Mu Zha’s journeys accompanying its master across All Heavens.

Mu Zha’s standards were extraordinarily high, any treasure that caught its eye was invariably a priceless, precious rarity.

Finally, these ’picked-up’ treasures were being put to use.

As Mu Zha looked at the dazzling array of treasures in the shop, a strong sense of accomplishment surged forth.

...

The following day, as many shops on Sea Treasure Road began to open, Heavenly Will Square finally opened its doors as well.

As the daylight gradually brightened, the number of pedestrians increased on the road, some stores quickly welcomed their first customer.

As time ticked away, pedestrians passed by the entrance of Heavenly Will Square one by one, but none noticed this newly opened shop.

No, to be more precise, none could perceive Heavenly Will Square.

People walking past seemed to instinctively overlook its existence.

Perhaps as the couplet on the shop frame stated, only those destined could see this Heavenly Will Square.

Mu Zha sat properly behind the counter, its pale, tender face feigned maturity, radiating a calm and serious demeanor.

At this time, Zhao Yue Ru and Zhaozhong Zhen stood silently on either side of the counter, serving as mere ornaments.

Meanwhile, Zhao Changyong and Zhao Hualin lurked behind the distant antique racks, secretly practicing cultivation.

Mu Zha had long noticed their sneaky actions, but it couldn’t care less, after all, since there were no visiting customers now, secretly cultivating was indeed a sign of diligence.

Three days passed quickly, and while Heavenly Will Square’s door stood open, yet not a single person stepped in.

This greatly disappointed the initially confident Mu Zha.

And then another ten days!

Throughout these ten days, Heavenly Will Square hadn’t truly opened once.

Mu Zha’s confidence took a massive hit, gradually decreasing to a state of despondence, displaying an entirely dispirited demeanor.

Zhao Hualin, Zhao Zhongzhen watched the situation with concern and anxiety.

Zhao Hualin, being the strongest and most ambitious, eagerly sought to forge a connection with Mu Zha.

Therefore, after half a month passed, unable to hold back any longer, he secretly proposed a suggestion to Senior Mu.

Who knew that instead of praise, he was reprimanded by Mu Zha.

Master’s decree was clear: Heavenly Will Square only serves destined persons.

Zhao Hualin’s suggestion for the four to go out and solicit customers was undoubtedly against the Master’s intention.

"Such a sly mind you have. Do you think Zhazha wouldn’t come up with such a simple idea?

Get back quickly, and wipe the treasures on the racks. Can’t you see they’ve gathered so much dust?"

Zhao Hualin, chided and feeling disheartened, hurried to a nearby antique rack, raising his hand to release a large clear light, carefully wiping off the ’nonexistent’ dust from the treasures.

The other three, witnessing this, also went to the antique racks and started pretending to perform the Dust Cleaning Technique, removing the dust from the treasures.

Mu Zha, puffed-up, sat back on the chair, using its bottom to apply force on the seat, repeatedly sensing the movements in the backyard.

Master had stayed in the backyard for more than twenty days, during that time neither summoned anyone for service nor showed his face, truly worrying everyone!

...

As the time gradually passed, the rainy season finally arrived.

Heavy rain poured day and night non-stop, as if the sky had broken a Big Hole, with rainfall cascading down like waterfalls.

As the rain grew heavier, the docks became crowded with vessels of various sizes.

In Gaoya City, the atmosphere became increasingly desolate, with most shops closed and city residents staying indoors, all hoping for the rain season to end soon.

For over twenty days, during the continuous downpour, numerous puddles formed on Sea Treasure Road’s surface, filthy rainwater flowed everywhere, the city’s underground channels became filled to the brink, even overflowing in places.
