The hook-nosed middle-aged man closed the door and immediately said, "I swear on my hundreds of thousands of years of reputation that there is something fishy about this matter. It is definitely not our Yunxiang House's doing. Those two guests are very suspicious. I can help the Taiji Sect arrest them."
Pa —
Hearing them shirk responsibility as soon as he arrived, Ying Fengxiao angrily slammed the table and stood up.
At the same time, he shook his sleeve, and a confined power of death appeared.
"You mean to say that the two crowned emperors have mastered one of the eight profoundness, the law of death?"
"Hiss! Law of death! " The hook-nosed middle-aged man inhaled sharply. "I thought the eight profundities were just a legend!"
If he had not seen it with his own eyes, it would be hard to believe that someone had really mastered the eight profundities.
"Stop putting on an act! I heard the details. Those two had no chance to release the power of death. Only your Yunxiang House has the highest possibility! "Ying Fengxiao said angrily.
The hook-nosed middle-aged man recovered from his shock, but there was no panic on his face.
His Yunxiang House had been established for hundreds of thousands of years. If they really had the intention to harm the Taiji Sect disciples, why would they wait until now? Moreover, it was in Yunxiang House's restaurant. Wasn't this a blatant lie?
Ying Fengxiao was sure that this was not Yunxiang House's doing.
However, Ying Fengxiao wanted to stand up for his disciple.
It seemed like he had to bleed a lot.
"I can swear that this was not done by my Cloud Fragrance House, but Yang Hua met with danger in my restaurant. My Cloud Fragrance House is duty-bound and willing to compensate sixty million divine stones to buy some tonics for Yang Hua so that he can recover soon."
Ying Fengxiao snorted. "Sixty million? You mean to say that my disciple doesn't have to pay for the wine and deserves to be harmed?"
"Then, in your opinion, Elder Ying, how much is appropriate?"
Ying Fengxiao snorted. "Not much, one billion divine stones."
"One … billion!" The young shopkeeper inhaled sharply. Wasn't this asking for too much?
Yunxiang House seemed to have a booming business, and the things they sold were extremely expensive, but the cost of all the divine wines was equally high.
Even after several years, they could not earn one billion!
Ying Fengxiao really dared to ask!
The hook-nosed middle-aged man's expression darkened. "Elder Ying, this is not a discussion."
"Who is discussing with you? I'm informing you! " Yingfeng Xiao was unforgiving. "If you do not satisfy my disciple today, I will immediately invite them to Taiji Sect's Law and Discipline Peak. Let's see if they will still allow your Yunxiang House to continue operating."
The expressions of the eagle-eyed hook-nosed man and his nephew changed drastically upon hearing the words' Discipline and Discipline Peak '.
Discipline Peak was an independent force of the Taiji Sect. It was under the control of the Taiji Sect's Sect Master, and its function was to restrain all violations of the Taiji Sect's commandments.
Most importantly, they were not only responsible for the disciples of the Taiji Sect but also the entire Taiji civilization.
It could be said that wherever there was a crime, they would be able to control it.
Furthermore, he had great authority and could act first and report later.
The eagle-eyed middle-aged man asked himself how many Yin Yang Elders he had befriended, and he was not afraid of the Yin Yang Elders.
But in front of Discipline Peak, what was Yunxiang House? Even the most powerful forces would have to lower their heads in front of the Discipline Peak.
If Discipline Peak was really called over, Yunxiang House would immediately close down.
"Elder Ying, can you make an exception? Such a huge amount of wealth is really …"
"Then there's no need for further discussion. Let's go to the Discipline Peak!"
The eagle-eyed middle-aged man's expression changed abruptly. He gritted his teeth. "Wait! I'll agree. One billion Divine Stones will be sent to Elder Ying's residence in three days. "
"That's more like it!" Only then did Ying Fengxiao's expression soften.
The eagle-eyed middle-aged man forced a smile. "Elder Ying, please don't spread word of this matter. Otherwise, Yunxiang House's reputation will be tarnished, and it will be difficult for us to continue operating."
"As long as you pay up, everything can be discussed." In other words, if the one billion Divine Stones had not arrived, Yunxiang House would have to wait to close down.
After sending off Ying Fengxiao and a disciple, the eagle-eyed middle-aged man's expression completely collapsed.
One billion … It was equivalent to working for nothing for the past few years.
"A bunch of ruthless wolves!" The eagle-eyed middle-aged man cursed in a low voice.
The young shopkeeper also said resentfully, "Uncle, we didn't do anything shameful. So what if we're called over to Discipline Peak?"
Slap!
The eagle-eyed middle-aged man turned around and slapped him across the face. He scolded angrily, "Isn't this all your fault, you little brat? How many times have I warned you to welcome people with a smile when doing business? Don't offend anyone, even if that person looks inconspicuous. Look at you now? You've directly angered a Death Law Adept, and you've lost one billion Divine Stones! "
He had asked his nephew about the ins and outs of the matter, but his nephew was hesitant.
So, he directly asked a few waiters on duty, and learned that his nephew had not only snatched the wine that the shopkeeper was about to drink, but had also withheld sixty million Divine Stones from the shopkeeper.
Hearing this, he knew that the culprits must be those two people.
Although they looked ordinary, one of them must be very powerful.
As expected, one of them was a Death Law Adept!
That was the most terrifying existence among the Eight Great Laws.
Those who cultivated this Law were all murderous, sinister, and terrifying figures.
His nephew's arrogance and rudeness could be considered to have attracted an unusually terrifying person to him.
Now that he had lost a few years' worth of income, he hated his nephew to the bone.
"Uncle, I … I'm sorry …" The young shopkeeper covered his face.
The eagle-eyed middle-aged man scolded angrily, "What's the use of apologizing to me? Can you change back one billion Divine Stones? "
His nephew's arrogance had caused Yunxiang House to suffer greatly.
However, he was more resentful of those two people. Their methods could be said to have put Yunxiang House in danger.
"You'd better remember what you've suffered this time. If you dare to look down on me again, hmph, scram!"
The young man heaved a sigh of relief. He had escaped a disaster.
In the opposite restaurant, Huangfu Lieyang could not help but laugh out loud when he saw Yingfengxiao and the others leave contentedly. "Hahaha, guess how much Yunxiang House has lost?"
Su Yu smiled lightly. "At least not less than your sixty million Divine Stones."
"Haha, then I'm relieved. Let Yunxiang House learn a lesson in blood, and my anger has been resolved." Huangfu Lieyang felt much better.
"Oh? You're satisfied just like that? "Su Yu nodded." Yunxiang House only sent Yingfengxiao, not you. "
Huangfu Lieyang said, "What else do you want?"
Su Yu said thoughtfully, "Aren't we thinking about how to establish ourselves in the future? Isn't there an opportunity right now? "
His lips curled into a mysterious smile.
A few days later, Yunxiang House reopened for business.
This time, the eagle-eyed middle-aged man personally oversaw the place to prevent anyone from causing trouble.
After a month, Yunxiang House returned to normal.
The eagle-eyed middle-aged man thought to himself, That person should be appeased after getting his revenge.
As he was thinking, a group of Tai Chi Faction disciples entered Yunxiang House, chatting and laughing.
"Senior Qin has opened up a brand new nursery for the Tai Chi Faction. The faction will reward you handsomely this time."
"Haha, thinking about how precious the Nine Yin Grass is, it's impossible to grow it in normal soil and environment. Our sect has searched for many years, but we haven't found a suitable artificial planting ground. I didn't expect Senior Brother Qin to find it!"
"I'm so envious. Before Senior Qin becomes rich, I have to hug Senior Qin's thigh."
The one being complimented was a young disciple in his early thirties, Qin Weiyang. He had a cultivation base of a Double Crown Martial Artist. Normally, he did not stand out in the faction, and was considered very inconspicuous.
On this trip, he had accidentally found a piece of rare Mist Gold soil under a cliff. It was an extremely rare ancient landform.
He had tried to plant a seed of the Nine Yin Grass there. After a few years, it had sprouted successfully.
When the news spread, all the elders were shocked.
The Nine Yin Grass was the main ingredient for refining the Nine Yin Elixir, a secret medicine unique to the Tai Chi Faction.
What was the Nine Yin Elixir? It was a heaven-defying medicine that the Tai Chi Faction's three great Emperors could use to cultivate.
Every one of them was extremely precious. Even the elders had to accumulate hundreds of years of merit to exchange for one from the faction.
However, because the environment in which the Nine Yin Grass grew was extremely harsh, this elixir was very rare.
Every one of them was a rare item that could make the Yin Yang Elders fight to the death for them.
Therefore, one could imagine how great Qin Weiyang's contribution was this time.
At the very least, he would be rewarded with a Nine Yin Elixir. If he was lucky, he might be chosen by a Yin Yang Elder and be accepted as a disciple.
His status could be said to have risen with the tide.
Therefore, many friends who were not too distant or too close to him warmly invited him to congratulate him.
Qin Weiyang was overwhelmed by the favor and gladly agreed.
The eagle-eyed middle-aged man was delighted. With so many Tai Chi Faction disciples, he would make a fortune today.
However, he also became cautious. To prevent a similar poisoning incident from happening again, he personally delivered all the wine they ordered.
Moreover, he deliberately left all the tables nearby empty to prevent anyone from approaching and poisoning them.
However, he did not notice that there was a faint speck of dust on Qin Weiyang's shoulder …
The ten or so Tai Chi Faction disciples chatted for an hour before leaving.
Seeing that they were fine, the eagle-eyed middle-aged man heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed like that person had completely left and would not cause trouble again.
Just as he was thinking, Qin Weiyang suddenly clutched his stomach and fell to the ground in pain.
"Senior Brother Qin, what's wrong … Ouch, my stomach …"
"Ah! My chest hurts! "
"Me … Me too!"
"Not good, the wine is poisoned. Someone wants to harm us!"
"Quick! Leave Yunxiang House and call for help on the streets! "
Recently, there had been rumors about the Tai Chi Faction. Their masters had warned them to be careful when they went out. If they encountered something wrong, it was best to find a crowded place to call for help.
At this moment, there were Tai Chi Faction disciples occasionally walking on the streets. If they met with them, they would be safe.
The group of Tai Chi Faction disciples who could walk all staggered out of the clouds and collapsed on the streets, shouting, "Quick … Quick, inform the Tai Chi Faction!"
The eagle-eyed middle-aged man's mind went blank!
Something big had happened!
More than ten Tai Chi Faction disciples had been poisoned at the same time. They could not hide it even if they wanted to!
As expected, someone immediately informed the nearby Tai Chi Faction base. A group of Tai Chi Faction elders rushed over and immediately rescued the unconscious disciples inside and outside Yunxiang House.
Among those who participated in the rescue was Ying Fengxiao.
