The inn owner knocked on the young cultivator's door nervously, "Sir … are you there?"
Inside the room, Chu Mo slowly opened his eyes and asked in a low voice, "What is it?"
"That, it's … it's like this." The inn owner stuttered and explained what happened, then smiled bitterly, "I really have no other choice, that's why I shamelessly came to beg you."
"Oh, you said the person who threatened you is a descendant of the Divine Pill Emperor Lord?" Chu Mo asked.
"Yes, it's a subordinate sent by the Divine Pill Emperor Lord's descendant … It's not really a threat, we're used to it, they've always been like this." The inn owner smiled bitterly, "After all, this is Divine Pill City, the place where the Divine Pill Emperor Lord rose to power. The rulers here are all his descendants, small characters like us, what right do we have to speak? We don't dare to disobey … "
"The courtyard I'm staying in is very secluded, it's not the best room." Chu Mo said in a low voice, "How about this, I'll give you a piece of top grade heaven crystal stone, you can just clear away the others. I'm here, and when it's time to leave, I'll naturally leave. "
Before the innkeeper could say anything, his hand suddenly sank slightly, and a crystal stone without any impurities appeared in his hand out of thin air. He only took one look and was shocked, his mouth gaping wide open.
He never thought this customer would really give him a piece of top grade heaven crystal stone!
This piece of heaven crystal stone was more than enough to buy his inn, let alone stay here. Not even half of it!
"This, this, this … what should I do!" The inn owner held the top grade heaven crystal stone as if it was a hot potato.
"Alright, let's leave it like this, don't tell anyone about this. And don't worry, I won't cause any trouble for you. " In the room, Chu Mo's voice came out, "Even if there's a big shot, he won't come to stay in an inn of this level, his followers might not even come. Asking you to clean up here is just a formality. What do you think? "
The inn owner thought about it and it seemed to make sense. He was well aware of the grade of his inn. Even though it wasn't bad, it wasn't the best in the entire Divine Pill City either. If there really was a big shot, they would not choose to stay at his place.
Thinking of this, the innkeeper felt much more at ease. He nodded and said, "Then, then I will try."
With that said, the innkeeper left with mixed feelings.
He might need many years to earn such a piece of supreme-grade Heaven Crystal Stone. So it would be a lie to say that he didn't want it. It was just that this thing was really a hot potato. If the descendants of the Pill God Emperor Lord were to find out about it, they would have to bear the consequences.
With this kind of apprehensive mood, the innkeeper met the young man again in the evening.
"How is it?" Coldly, the young man asked.
The innkeeper made up his mind. There was no way out now, so he simply nodded and said, "Sir, everything has been cleaned up."
"En, not bad." The young man threw a low-grade Heaven Crystal Stone onto the counter: "This is your reward!" With that said, he turned around and left. He didn't even bother to check it. Because he believed that in the Divine Pill City, no one would dare to disobey the descendants of the Pill God Emperor Lord.
The innkeeper finally sighed in relief. He slumped into the chair and looked at the low-grade Heaven Crystal Stone on the counter with a bitter smile. He really didn't want to experience this again. It seemed that after this incident, he would find a chance to sell out the inn. After all, he had earned some money over the years. It would be enough for him to retire.
Even though the innkeeper was only an original soul cultivator, he still had many years left to live. He was satisfied with his current cultivation level and wanted to find a quiet and beautiful place to spend time with his family and enjoy life.
This was the unchanging mainstream ideology of the cultivation world.
The mainstream ideology of the cultivation world was really not to seek longevity, nor was it to seek the highest realm. Because most people's talents were ultimately limited.
Rather than wasting one's lifespan in boring cultivation, it was better to stop after a certain point and start to enjoy life in the mortal world.
Unfortunately, the innkeeper's wish was destined to never come true.
In less than half an hour, the young man returned. His face was ashen, and his eyes seemed to be spitting fire. He stared coldly at the innkeeper, "You've got guts! You've got guts! You dare to lie to anyone! "
"I, I didn't lie to you!" The innkeeper's heart skipped a beat but he forced himself to remain calm.
"You didn't lie to me? Just now, a group of important people came and wanted to stay at your place. They scanned with their divine sense and found someone else in the courtyard behind your inn. They left directly from your place! "The young man looked at the innkeeper coldly and said:" You ruined my plan! When I go back, I will definitely be severely punished. "
"I, I, I … I really didn't lie to you." The innkeeper looked at the young man and his voice changed.
The young man raised his hand and slapped the innkeeper. He didn't give him a chance to explain and killed him directly. Then, he took out a top-grade Celestial Crystal from the innkeeper's body.
The young man's eyes suddenly lit up and he murmured: "I didn't expect … you to be a rich man. Well, those important people won't choose to stay here anyway. If I don't take out all your money, I will be sorry for the punishment I will face!"
With that, the young man didn't look at the innkeeper who died there and walked directly to the courtyard in the back corner.
Chu Mo was constantly operating his mental cultivation method and comprehending the Tao.
Previously on the Heavenly Path, after chopping firewood and comprehending the Tao, he didn't have much time to comprehend it.
Only by studying hard could one become proficient!
There were some things in this world that had shortcuts, but there were some things that didn't have shortcuts.
Although only those with good talent could cultivate to a higher realm, the higher one went, the more it was like this. Those with good talent might cultivate faster, but that was all.
If one wasn't diligent enough, they would eventually stagnate, fall behind, and be surpassed by the people behind.
In order to prevent his aura from leaking, Chu Mo directly sealed the small courtyard with a magic formation. As long as the magic formation wasn't touched, he wouldn't be able to sense it. Therefore, Chu Mo had no idea what had happened before. It wasn't until the young man touched the formation that Chu Mo's eyes suddenly opened. His face wore a hint of doubt as he scanned the place with his Divine Sense. Chu Mo's expression instantly changed.
He took a deep breath, and two rays of cold light shot out from his eyes. Who would have thought that because of him, the owner of the inn would actually be killed by someone!
The murderer was most likely this young man.
"The person inside, come out now!" The young man's cold voice came from outside the small courtyard.
The young man's name was Dan Fusheng. He was an ordinary steward of the Alchemy Sacred Emperor Clan, but his cultivation level wasn't low among the stewards.
He was a Heaven Immortal Realm cultivator!
His cultivation level was nothing to the Alchemy God Emperor's family, but in the Divine Pill City, he was considered quite famous.
Therefore, his tone was very harsh.
He immediately asked the person inside to come out.
