Seeing this, the surrounding cultivators all shook their heads and cast sympathetic glances at Su Shier and Jiang Feixue.
This pockmarked man was named Chen San, a somewhat "famous" figure in the Qianshan Market.
Relying on his uncle, who was a member of the law enforcement team, he usually engaged in fraud and extortion, specifically targeting new cultivators with lower cultivation levels.
Over the years, countless people had been deceived and wronged by his gang.
At this moment, everyone felt that Su Shier and Jiang Feixue were too young.
In such matters, it would have been better to just take the loss and move on, but they actually called the law enforcement team.
In response to their actions, Jiang Feixue's lips curled up slightly, a faint smile playing on her face. She paid no attention to the reactions of the crowd.
Uncle?
Is this guy in cahoots with the law enforcement team?
Su Shier's heart trembled, and his face turned even more grim. He did not notice Jiang Feixue's reaction but instead stared at the pockmarked cultivator in front of him, his eyes filled with a murderous intent.
He did not want to cause trouble, but if someone provoked him, he was not afraid to face it.
At this moment, he had the urge to quickly kill the person in front of him and then leave the market.
Or perhaps he could temporarily swallow his anger, wait for the guy to leave the market, and then find an opportunity to deal with him.
Just as Su Shier was caught in these conflicting thoughts, a law enforcement team member wearing a blue robe and sporting a goatee walked over.
"What's going on? What happened?" As soon as he arrived, the goatee man asked sternly.
"Uncle, this guy is extorting people!" The pockmarked man chuckled and pointed at Su Shier, shouting immediately.
"Extorting? Daring to cause trouble in the Qianshan Market, I think you are really asking for it!" The goatee man's eyes widened, and he turned to look at Su Shier and Jiang Feixue, his eyes flashing with malice.
However, as his gaze swept over Jiang Feixue, he noticed a white jade token hanging from her waist.
The goatee man's pupils constricted, and he suddenly turned around, slapping the pockmarked cultivator hard across the face.
This sudden slap left the pockmarked man stunned.
The surrounding cultivators also looked shocked.
What... What's going on?
Could it be that these two have some background?
In the next second, the crowd's gazes toward Su Shier and Jiang Feixue changed immediately.
The pockmarked cultivator, holding his face, looked at the goatee man with confusion.
"Uncle, you... you..."
"Don't call me Uncle, I don't have a nephew like you. I've told you countless times, in the Qianshan Market, fraud and extortion are absolutely not allowed. Did you hear me or did you hear it in a dog's stomach?"
Before the pockmarked man could finish speaking, the goatee man scolded him with a righteous air.
"I..."
"What do you mean 'I'? Hurry up and hand over the item!"
Faced with the goatee man's stern gaze, the pockmarked cultivator shrank back, not daring to say anything more.
With a wave of his hand, the brilliant light of the supreme umbrella-shaped magical artifact appeared in his hand.
The goatee man gritted his teeth, clearly feeling some pain. But in the next second, he snatched the magical artifact and turned to hand it to Jiang Feixue.
" Fellow Daoists, this is the treasure you were trading. This guy had ill intentions and was swindling. I will punish him according to the rules of the law enforcement team!"
"Rest assured, you can continue your stall. The Qianshan Market is patrolled by law enforcement team members, and we will not allow such scoundrels to cause trouble."
Seeing Jiang Feixue receive the treasure, the goatee man added a few more words with enthusiasm. Then, he turned and led the pockmarked man and his two companions away.
"Brother Zhu! This is your magical artifact! The Yuanyang Umbrella is an extremely powerful defensive magical artifact with astonishing defensive capabilities. You got a great deal this time." Jiang Feixue handed the umbrella-shaped magical artifact to Su Shier and said with a smile.
"Thank you!" Su Shier accepted the treasure and thanked her with a smile.
He was not foolish; the sudden change in the goatee man's attitude was clearly related to Jiang Feixue.
However, since Jiang Feixue did not say anything, he did not ask either.
It seems that Jiang Feixue's identity is even more mysterious than I imagined!
"Brother Zhu, why are you being so formal with me! I've already said that the security in the Qianshan Market is quite good!"
Jiang Feixue said with a smile, then looked at the empty stall and added, "Brother Zhu, all the spirit plants have been traded. Do you still plan to continue your stall?"
"No, let's go for a walk! If you like any treasures, I can give you a couple." Su Shier waved his hand and said with a smile.
He still had many spirit plants, but after this incident, even though he knew Jiang Feixue had a special background, he decided not to be so conspicuous anymore.
If he were to attract the attention of more powerful cultivators, it would be troublesome.
He was also grateful to Jiang Feixue.
The Yuanyang Umbrella was an extremely powerful defensive magical artifact, and its effects were even better than he had imagined. Normally, few cultivators would be willing to trade such a treasure.
"Sure! Then I won't be formal with you." Jiang Feixue said with a smile.
She thought that Su Shier had already reached his limit in providing spirit plants.
After saying this, she got up and led Su Shier to wander around the market.
In a room with an ancient and elegant style inside the market pavilion, the goatee man was sitting with the pockmarked cultivator, drinking tea.
"Uncle, that was an extremely powerful defensive magical artifact. How could you just give it to those two?"
"You don't understand, I'm saving your life!" the goatee man said irritably.
"Saving my life? Who are those two?" The pockmarked man looked nervous and asked hurriedly.
"I can't tell about the middle-aged man, but the young man is from the Divine Casting Mountain Manor." The goatee man said with narrowed eyes.
"What? Divine Casting Mountain Manor?! Uncle, are you sure?" The pockmarked cultivator was shocked and gasped.
"Hmph! I'm not so old that I can't see clearly. That man had the Divine Casting Order of the Divine Casting Mountain Manor hanging from his waist." The goatee man grunted.
"No wonder... No wonder he could immediately tell that the magical artifact had been switched! Uncle, what should I do now?" The pockmarked cultivator looked panicked, as if he was thinking of something terrifying.
"Don't worry, since I've taken you away, it should be fine. But during this gathering, you must behave yourself."
"At this time, it's hard to say whether other major sects or powerful families might send their younger generations here incognito. If you cause trouble again, I won't be able to save you!" The goatee man said calmly, showing some concern for his nephew.
"Uncle, don't worry, I understand what to do!" The pockmarked cultivator nodded hurriedly, looking calm.
