Immortal Taoist Lord: My Cultivation Have No Limits-Chapter 584 - 585: 184 The Sharp Edge of the Cloud Covered Pavilion_2
Chapter 585: 184 The Sharp Edge of the Cloud Covered Pavilion_2
Jing Chong’s face blanched instantly, and chills ran down his spine; he was trembling instinctively under the suppression of this immortal realm’s prowess.
His glance at Su Yu changed immediately, a touch of dread creeping into his heart.
So young—
He’s actually a Nascent Soul True Monarch!?
The shopkeeper of the Wanbao Trading Company beside him also changed his demeanor, his gaze at Su Yu no longer carrying the previous oppressive and aggressive tone. His straight back slightly bent at this moment, his posture a bit more humble.
But, Su Yu still didn’t pay him any attention.
Su Yu looked at Jing Chong and indifferently said, “The world of cultivation is vast, and your Jing family is but a slightly larger ant within it. Don’t be ignorant. You could be provoking an existence that your family can’t afford to offend.”
“I simply didn’t want to bother before, but it seems your Jing family doesn’t have much self-awareness.”
“And you—”
At this point, Su Yu’s gaze turned toward An Boyi. His face became more severe as a heavy atmosphere of a celestial Body Refinement Realm’s prowess weighed down on An Boyi.
In an instant, cold sweat streamed down An Boyi’s forehead, his face turning slightly pale!
However, he still faced Su Yu directly, as he was a member of the Wanbao Trading Company, not a small family or faction like the Jing family!
He truly didn’t believe that Su Yu would lay hands on him!
Under the suppression of the celestial realm’s prowess, An Boyi took a few deep breaths and steadied his flustered mind. Looking at Su Yu, he said solemnly, “The True Monarch called us here, but it seems not for negotiation!”
Su Yu faintly smiled, but his voice remained indifferent, “Very well. But there’s no reward.”
“The Wanbao Trading Company? Without a background, you can’t survive in the black market?”
“I haven’t given you a response yet. Should I blame your Wanbao Trading Company for being too bullying?”
“Do you think that because of the so-called Peak Nascent Soul True Monarch behind your Wanbao Trading Company, you can dominate the entire Daqian cultivation world and make all cultivators submit?”
“Don’t you know, in the eyes of some people, and in the eyes of some forces, both you and the Wanbao Trading Company are just not worth mentioning?”
“Don’t think too highly of yourself, or you’ll end up hurting yourself.”
An Boyi’s pupils shrank, staring at Su Yu in shock.
What does that mean—?
This man, he doesn’t even take his Wanbao Trading Company seriously?
Instinctively, he wanted to refute Su Yu, but as the words were about to leave his mouth, An Boyi swallowed the rebuttal, as he was just a small Core Formation Realm shopkeeper in the Wanbao Trading Company.
There was no need for him to offend the True Monarch in front of him for this, especially since he couldn’t defeat him anyway.
Besides, the decision to take over the Yunxiao Dange was commanded by the higher-ups in the company.
When he returned, he could just report this to them.
It was a matter beyond his control now.
Hmm!
At this time, a formation was activated, a fourth-grade top-tier kill formation sprung into action. The sharp aura fell on An Boyi and Jing Chong’s bodies. Instantly, the two felt the despair of impending death.
Jing Chong and An Boyi’s eyes bulged wide as they collapsed on the ground, begging loudly, “Spare us, True Monarch! Please, spare us!”
The formation was quick to activate and soon withdrew.
Su Yu slowly stood up, looking down upon Jing Chong and An Boyi, and said, “Remember, some people are not those you or the people and forces backing you can afford to offend.”
“Get out.”
Jing Chong and An Boyi scrambled out of Yunxiao Dange, grateful as they said, “Thank you for your mercy, True Monarch!”
Not until they escaped to the main street did they stop running.
But in that brief time, cold sweat had soaked through their backs, their faces still pale and bloodless, their eyes filled with fear, trepidation, and horror.
It took a while.
Jing Chong and An Boyi gradually recovered from their recent experience.
Jing Chong looked at An Boyi. Having been in the black market for many years, he naturally recognized the shopkeeper of Wanbao Trading Company, An Boyi. Thus, he asked with a trembling voice, “M-Mr. An, what level of formation was that just now? Hiss, I really thought I was going to die there.”
An Boyi, being somewhat knowledgeable, quickly stabilized his panic-stricken mind, faring better than Jing Chong.
He took a few deep breaths and said in a low, horrified voice, “A top-tier fourth-grade kill formation!”
“Moreover, it must be a top-notch fourth-grade kill formation!”
“Such a formation is set up inside the tiny pill pavilion? Hiss—”
After taking a cold breath, An Boyi couldn’t help but curse, “Damn, who is he planning to kill by setting up such a formation in the black market?”
Jing Chong deeply agreed upon hearing this!
Isn’t it true?
Not many people dare to make a move in the black market, after all, it’s under the protection of the Ten Monarch Fairy City. Generally speaking, several fourth-tier lower grade formations are enough to handle all situations.
But that small Cloud Sky Pill Pavilion has set up a fourth-tier superior killing formation?
This is absolutely outrageous!
“Fourth-tier superior killing formation—”
Jing Chong was panicked.
Could the Jing Family afford to offend a person who could set up such a high-level formation?
All these years, he’s been foolishly thinking about dealing with the Cloud Sky Pill Pavilion, subduing them, and making them serve the Jing Family!
Isn’t this a suicidal move?
It might even bring about a disaster that would annihilate the Jing Family!
“Manager An, I will take my leave first.”
Jing Chong hurried away. He had to go back and report to his family so that they could decide how to deal with this matter.
The issue between the Jing Family and the Cloud Sky Pill Pavilion must be somehow smoothed over.
Apologizing is inevitable. The only question is whether the person in Cloud Sky Pill Pavilion would accept it.
An Boyi didn’t try to stop him. He didn’t want to bother with insignificant characters like Jing Chong. On the contrary, after Jing Chong left, with no one to disturb him, An Boyi’s thoughts became clearer and calmer.
As the shopkeeper of the Ten Thousand Treasures Chamber of Commerce, An Boyi possessed such ‘unflappable’ ability.
An Boyi pondered over the words Su Yu spoken in the Cloud Sky Pill Pavilion. His pupils constricted. His tone, coupled with the threat of the fourth-tier superior killing formation, made him realize that Su Yu’s words were not false.
“The Cloud Sky Pill Pavilion, and that young-looking True Monarch behind it, are by no means simple!”
“Perhaps, they are people or forces that my Ten Thousand Treasures Chamber of Commerce cannot afford to offend!”
Hiss.
This sudden realization gave him a headache.
Invoking such existence might bring trouble to his Ten Thousand Treasures Chamber of Commerce.
“I must report back immediately. This dispute must be resolved as soon as possible!” An Boyi hastened his steps, heading back to the Ten Thousand Treasures Chamber of Commerce to inform the high authorities.
Elsewhere.
Cloud Sky Pill Pavilion.
Su Yu, accompanied by Lin Qingxia, Lin Bing, and Yang Yumin, returned to the stone table in the backyard.
Looking at the three women, their faces filled with joy and their eyes full of reverence and admiration for him, he laughed, “So, have you gotten rid of your resentment over these years?”
Lin Bing, her eyes shining like autumn water, looked at Su Yu with immense admiration and said, “Master, you were so majestic just now! Look at those two, they were so arrogant before, but what about now? They were scared and knelt before you, begging for your mercy!”
“Let’s see if they still dare to act arrogant in the pill pavilion, hmhm!”
Yang Yumin’s face was slightly flushed as she looked at Su Yu and spoke softly, “I knew it, master can do anything.”
Lin Qingxia, like an elder sister, watched Lin Bing and Yang Yumin’s excited faces and shook her head with a smile. She was quite calm and composed in contrast.
She looked at Su Yu and said, “With master’s warning this time, the pill pavilion should be able to establish itself firmly in the black market.”
She heaved a sigh of relief as her previous worries dissipated all at once.
If even the shopkeeper of the Ten Thousand Treasures Chamber of Commerce was subdued by the master, who else in the black market could threaten them in the future?
Thinking about this, Lin Qingxia felt a sense of excitement and happiness in her heart.
Without threats and troubles, they could peacefully manage the pill pavilion in the black market with their master.
The prospect of such days left Lin Qingxia full of anticipation.
Su Yu didn’t overthink it. After issuing a warning to Jing Chong and An Boyi, he returned back to his daily life—cultivating, practicing alchemy, and drawing talismans.
Sometimes, he would find some time to forge a fourth-tier inferior-grade Shadow Sword puppet.
As for the fourth-tier superior-grade killing formation, he still kept it at hand, as he wasn’t sure if the Jing Family or the Ten Thousand Treasures Chamber of Commerce would harbor thoughts of revenge.
