Chapter 49

After sending the chatty Old Huang back to rest, Han Muye went to his private room, practicing while pondering over what Old Huang had said.

Qingfeng Temple is not a major sect, and the only strong person in the temple is its abbot, De Yue Daoist.

He seems to be at the half-step Earth Realm.

A sect like this, even if it betrays the Nine Profound Sword Sect, would not cause much loss to the Sword Sect.

But will they take any action at this gathering?

If these people really do something, the outcome can be imagined.

They won't cause much of a stir.

Originally, Han Muye didn't care what these people would do. After all, he was in the Sword Pavilion, and no one could find trouble with him.

But he didn't expect that these people would involve Old Huang's first love.

No, it was more like a secret crush.

Even if it was a secret crush, if this person gets hurt in the Sword Sect, Old Huang would probably be very sad.

It's not something he can directly tell Old Huang.

It seems he needs to figure out the list of sects attending the gathering and do something about it.

What a worrying life, why do I always know about these troubles first?

In the morning, in the small courtyard, Han Muye met Old Huang.

Old Huang, with a face still showing signs of drunkenness, was stretching and exercising vigorously.

"Hey, Sixth Brother, you're up early today." Han Muye, holding a long sword, smiled and said.

"Early..." Old Huang, panting, turned his head.

Seeing the smile on Han Muye's face, Old Huang seemed to remember something and blushed.

"Cough, cough, that is, I drank too much last night and said a lot of drunken words. Don't take them seriously, don't take them seriously." Old Huang quickly said, blushing.

Han Muye waved his long sword and nodded. "What drunken words did Sixth Brother say?"

"Was it about becoming a Heavenly Realm cultivator, or about Sixth Sister?"

Old Huang's face turned a deep red, and he reached for his coat hanging on a tree branch and walked away.

"Where are you going, Sixth Brother?"

"To have breakfast."

"Are you not going to look for Sixth Sister?"

"..."

In the small courtyard, Han Muye smiled and swung his sword, the sword light becoming more intense.

Invisible sword qi began to gather.

With the cultivation of the Cultivating Essence Realm, even at the first level, he was now a genuine cultivator.

The sword light was very bright.

"Sixth Brother, I hope you can live a peaceful life in the Sword Pavilion. I hope no one disrupts it."

Han Muye muttered, thrusting his long sword.

"Swish—"

A faint sword mark appeared on the stone wall in front.

In the morning, Old Huang sat behind the long table at the entrance of the Sword Pavilion, bored and distracted.

"Sixth Brother, why don't you go for a walk?"

Han Muye turned to look at him.

"Okay—" Old Huang subconsciously agreed, then paused and shook his head. "Forget it, I'm not going anywhere."

"Really not going?" Han Muye stood up. "If you're not going, I'll go for a walk."

Saying that, he walked out of the Sword Pavilion.

Old Huang opened his mouth, watched Han Muye leave, and after a moment of hesitation, he also stood up and walked out of the pavilion.

"Sixth Brother, are you going too?" Lu Gao hurriedly came up at the entrance.

"I'm going for a walk." Old Huang, with his head held high and hands behind his back, walked down the steps.

"Today's meat..." Lu Gao called out from behind.

"I want a big bone." Old Huang's voice came.

"You have no front teeth, and you still want to chew on bones..." Lu Gao muttered as he watched Old Huang leave the Sword Pavilion.

He turned to look inside the Sword Pavilion, feeling a chill from the sword qi and shivered, then leaned against the door frame and dozed off.

The job at the Sword Pavilion is like this.

Simple and unadorned.

——————

Han Muye left the Sword Pavilion and went straight to the trading square in front of the Alchemy Hall.

Standing at the entrance of Su Zhen Tower, he took a deep breath and then walked in.

Bai Suzhen is not easy to deal with.

Inside Su Zhen Tower, besides Bai Suzhen, there was a female cultivator in a pink martial robe.

The two were chatting enthusiastically, but when Han Muye walked in, the pink-robed female cultivator immediately stopped talking, and Bai Suzhen looked up with a delighted expression.

"My Senior Brother Han, you are a rare visitor..."

Bai Suzhen's eyes sparkled as she walked out from behind the counter and approached Han Muye.

But after just two steps, she paused, seeing the surprise in the pink-robed female cultivator's eyes.

"You go ahead." Han Muye waved his hand and looked away.

He is a righteous person and is not used to flirting with Bai Suzhen.

Yes, doing business for a long time, some things need to be learned.

Bai Suzhen nodded and turned to whisper to the pink-robed female cultivator.

After a while, the female cultivator quietly took out a high-grade spirit stone and gave it to Bai Suzhen, who then handed over a jade bottle.

"Really, it's an Ultimate Cloud Qi Pill!"

The pink-robed female cultivator exclaimed in surprise, then clutched the bottle and looked at Bai Suzhen. "Sister Bai, do you have more of these pills? I'll pay an extra thousand spirit stones for them."

"Eleven thousand spirit stones per pill, which is much higher than the market price."

The female cultivator's voice was not low, and Han Muye, who was holding a herb, trembled.

Eleven thousand spirit stones for one Ultimate Cloud Qi Pill.

Three thousand spirit stones to buy, eleven thousand to sell, the middleman makes a profit.

Scoundrel!

Turning his head slightly, Han Muye's gaze met Bai Suzhen's.

Bai Suzhen looked away awkwardly and then said to the pink-robed female cultivator, "Sister Yuxia, if I have more of these pills, I will definitely sell them to you at the market price. How could I ask you to pay more?"

The female cultivator nodded, put away the jade bottle, and then gritted her teeth and said, "I don't know which person in the Nine Profound Sword Sect broke my brother's Dao heart with just a few words."

"Now his cultivation has stagnated, and he can no longer cultivate sword techniques. Without this ultimate pill to stabilize his dantian and meridians, he will be ruined."

"If I find out who that person is, I will break their bones."

Han Muye looked curiously at the pink-robed female cultivator.

This female cultivator exuded a heavy aura and a sharp sword intent, clearly a powerful expert.

Her brother must be even stronger.

A few words to break someone's Dao heart?

Who is so powerful?

Hearing the pink-robed female cultivator's words, Bai Suzhen said softly, "Your brother's initial cultivation of 'Swinging the Sword a Million Times, Splitting Rocks and Mountains' was not something I approved of."

"Once he really swings the sword a million times and finds himself still the same, he will likely be even more disheartened."

Swinging the sword a million times?

Splitting rocks and mountains?

Isn't the one who cultivates this the outer sect instructor, Instructor Lin Shen?

A few words to break his Dao heart...

"Cough, cough, is this fairy's brother the outer sect instructor, Instructor Lin?" Han Muye looked at the female cultivator and asked softly.

The female cultivator looked at Han Muye, then turned to Bai Suzhen.

"Sister Bai, watch your Senior Brother Han. Don't start chatting with every female cultivator you see."

The female cultivator said, glanced at Han Muye, and then walked out of Su Zhen Tower.

"Think just because you're good-looking, everyone will talk to you?"

"I, Lin Yuxia, don't buy into that."

Han Muye shook his head and then looked at Bai Suzhen.

"Shopkeeper Bai, shouldn't we reconsider the price of this Cloud Qi Pill?"
