As the largest city in the Martial Numinous clan, Martial City was visited by countless people every day. There were more than ten entrances into the city guarded by members of the Li family. However, it had been ten days and the Li family clansmen were rather lax in their attitude.
They were members of the Martial Numinous clan. There was no need for them to guard the entrance. Yet, they had been sent here because of an audacious mortal-born.
They had received news that the mortal-born had managed to escape that very day. Under such circumstances, what was the point of them guarding the entrance?
Therefore, when Yi Yun walked past one of the Li family clansmen, the clansman only gave him a glance before ignoring him.
Martial City was vast and there were more than ten entrances to the city. Yi Yun had entered Martial City through another entrance. After entering the city, he arrived in another city district.
Yi Yun did not know how the Myriad God Patriarch had discovered him but after some thought, he felt that the Ascending Dragon Cauldron was the most likely explanation.
Yi Yun had used the Purple Crystal to seal the Ascending Dragon Cauldron's aura before entering the city. Together with the Star Transference Heaven Changing Book, he refused to believe that the Myriad God Patriarch would find him.
"I'll buy herbs for Wang Mu first."
The herbs Yi Yun needed to refine for Wang Mu were not expensive but they were extremely rare. Therefore, he needed a medicinal clinic of a certain scale to buy them.
He asked around on the way and after learning the name of a medicinal clinic, he headed for it.
"Rejuvenation Pavilion. It's said to be a pretty good medicinal clinic. It even has some ties with the Heaven Refinement Pavilion." Yi Yun stood at the entrance and took a glance before walking in.
Rejuvenation Pavilion was a lot smaller than the Heaven Refinement Pavilion. There were only two employees and a man who looked like a manager sat behind the counter.
Yi Yun went straight to the counter and placed a list on the counter. "I would like to purchase these herbs."
The shopkeeper first glanced at the list, then slowly raised his head. When he raised his head, he was stunned for a moment.
"It's you?"
Yi Yun recognized the manager when he saw his appearance. He was the thin, middle-aged alchemist he had met at the Heaven Refinement Pavilion.
Back then, no one from the Li family had seen Yi Yun's appearance. The Li family did not know that the mortal-born that failed to purchase the herbs was Yi Yun in disguise. Therefore, Yi Yun continued using his current appearance. He never expected to meet the thin alchemist.
It was no wonder the person who introduced him to the medicinal clinic said that Rejuvenation Pavilion was related to the Heaven Refinement Pavilion.
He revealed a mocking smile. It was no wonder the person who introduced him to the medicinal clinic said that Rejuvenation Pavilion was related to the Heaven Refinement Pavilion.
The thin alchemist looked at the list in his hand with a teasing look before looking back at Yi Yun. A teasing smile appeared on his face.
"What did I say before? You will discover sooner or later that the Martial Numinous clan reigns supreme in Martial City. As long as you want to buy medicine, it's impossible to avoid the Martial Numinous clan as long as it's even the tiniest bit rare.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. We're about to meet again. How about it? Do you want to sign a contract to serve my clan, or …"
The thin alchemist raised his head and looked at Yi Yun with his nostrils. He was naturally in a good mood to smack Yi Yun in the face in such a short period of time.
Yi Yun frowned slightly. "I'm not interested in your contract! I want all the pills on this list. "
"Heh heh." The thin alchemist sneered. He slowly stroked his mustache. "You sure know how to refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. You want to buy herbs? Sure! The herbs you want, especially Autumn Brightness, can only be found here at my place or in the Heaven Refinement Pavilion. I won't beat around the bush. I want a Godly Monarch Immortal Annulus for these items. Hand it over! "
After saying that, the middle-aged alchemist leaned back and looked at Yi Yun with a smile.
A Godly Monarch Immortal Annulus was extremely precious. Even the alchemists of the Martial Numinous clan did not have one, much less a mortal-born.
He did not have to worry about not being able to sell his herbs. He only said that to amuse Yi Yun.
Although he could not tell what the prescription was from the herbs on the list, this Autumn Dew could be used to treat injuries. A medicine that could treat injuries was a medicine that could save lives. It could not be delayed. He wanted to see Yi Yun in a dilemma.
"A Godly Monarch Immortal Annulus?" Yi Yun sneered. These herbs were not even worth a tenth of a Godly Monarch Immortal Annulus, much less a Godly Monarch Immortal Annulus.
"Why? You can't afford it? If you can't afford it, leave quickly. Don't delay my business, "said the middle-aged alchemist as he waved his fan.
At that moment, the voice in his throat suddenly choked. It was as though his neck was being strangled. His eyes widened.
A Godly Monarch Immortal Annulus was thrown on the counter in front of him.
The middle-aged alchemist looked at Yi Yun in astonishment. He never expected Yi Yun to really produce a Godly Monarch Immortal Annulus.
"I've already given you the money. Here are the herbs I want," said Yi Yun coldly. He remembered the person.
The way the middle-aged alchemist looked at Yi Yun was no longer the same. He originally believed that Yi Yun was a pauper but now, the way he looked at Yi Yun was somewhat odd.
To be able to use a Godly Monarch Immortal Annulus to buy these herbs that were not worth much, the punk was truly extravagant.
He did not believe that Yi Yun was a retard who would buy cheap items at a high price. It could only mean that Autumn Brightness was extremely important to Yi Yun. It was likely that he needed it to save his life.
An idea came to him as he said, "I just mentioned a Godly Monarch Immortal Annulus. That was only the total price of the herbs. However, there will be an additional tax on the herbs. Every herb sold here will be a cut to the Martial Numinous clan. You will have to pay the tax as well. Add another fifty million mid-grade Spirit Jade."
The middle-aged alchemist extended his hand with a chuckle. He was certain that Yi Yun was rich and was in urgent need of Autumn Brightness. It would be too easy for him if he did not take the opportunity to extort him.
Yi Yun's gaze sank as he took out five interspatial rings and lined them up on the counter. "The fifty million you wanted is here."
With the Myriad God Patriarch in Martial City, he did not wish to cause any more trouble. However, the man's attitude had reached the limits of his tolerance.
"Hehe, you really do have it." The middle-aged alchemist looked at Yi Yun like he was looking at a fat sheep. He stroked his chin and without realizing it, a spiritual mark landed on Yi Yun.
Yi Yun instantly sensed the spiritual mark. It was a tracking mark!
He remained unperturbed and feigned ignorance.
"Go, bring him the herbs he wants," said the middle-aged alchemist.
Soon, a few bags of herbs were delivered to Yi Yun.
Yi Yun received the herbs and did not even look at the alchemist. He turned and walked out of Huichun House.
With the herbs in hand, Yi Yun left Martial City directly. He looked extremely anxious.
Soon, he flew above a vast desolate land. He was about five hundred kilometers away from Martial City. At that moment, Yi Yun suddenly came to a stop.
He sneered and turned his head unhurriedly. He saw a few figures that had suddenly appeared behind him.
There were a total of five people. Four of them had eighth or ninth-storey Dao Palace cultivation levels while the last one was a half-step Supremacy.
"You sold the herbs to me at a high price and even had thoughts of robbing me. You sure are greedy."
The middle-aged alchemist that had extorted Yi Yun was among the five. The other few were unfamiliar faces.
The middle-aged alchemist laughed. "It looks like you aren't that stupid after all. However, you discovered it too late. As a mortal-born, you have repeatedly offended me. Today, I'll let you know the consequences of offending the Martial Numinous clan! "
"To rob your own guest in broad daylight. The rules of Martial City are really nonexistent," said Yi Yun with a shake of his head.
"Rules? Those rules are set for you mortal-born. The death of a mortal-born is nothing. Even if people suspect me, they will not pursue the matter, "said the middle-aged alchemist disdainfully.
In fact, he would not easily have such thoughts. Yi Yun was just too rich. He had taken out a Godly Monarch Immortal Annulus and fifty million mid-grade Spirit Jade without even blinking. How much wealth did he have?
He could not hold back his greed with such rich wealth in front of him.
At that moment, Yi Yun revealed a sinister smile. "Do you know why I only discovered all of you now?"
Upon seeing Yi Yun's reaction, the middle-aged alchemist vaguely felt that something was amiss. As for the helper he had brought, he was also a male member of the Martial Numinous clan. He said impatiently, "Cut the crap when you're about to die."
"Attack!"
In an instant, all of them charged at Yi Yun.
As for Yi Yun, his eyes flashed with killing intent. He extended his hand to touch his interspatial ring and his voice sounded. "That's because on my journey here, I felt that this place was most suitable for killing."
Chi!
A dazzling cold beam instantly lit up from Yi Yun's hand. It seemed to tear through space and time, appearing suddenly before vanishing in an instant.
After the cold beam passed, the first person that charged at Yi Yun seemed to freeze in his spot.
A shallow sword mark appeared on his throat.
"Puah!"
Blood splattered as the person's head was blasted open.
"What!?"
The middle-aged alchemist was alarmed. The person who had just died was an eighth-storey Dao Palace warrior. Yet, he had been instantly killed by Yi Yun!?
And immediately following that …
Puah! Puah!
Puah! A few heads flew up as blood splattered!
All the people he had brought with him had been instantly killed by Yi Yun. Even the half-step Supremacy was no exception. He had only managed to react in time to block Yi Yun's attack, but before he could do so, he was already decapitated.
It was like stepping on a cockroach or an ant. It made no difference to Yi Yun.
The middle-aged alchemist stood in his spot, his body cold. He was standing in the middle of the corpses.
These four people had been killed by Yi Yun in an instant …
His strength was even stronger than ordinary Supremacies.
"You … How did you …" The middle-aged man felt suffocated. He clearly sensed that Yi Yun was extremely young. How did he have such freakish strength?
"Don't kill me … I'm an alchemist. I can help you refine pills. Besides, I'm the nephew of the Martial Numinous clan's Elder Bai … I'll even return the Godly Monarch Immortal Annulus to you …" The middle-aged alchemist stuttered.
Before his voice faded, Yi Yun had suddenly appeared in front of him. He raised his hand and slashed down with his sword.
"Whoosh!"
