Chapter 253 I Have Another Name
After saying this, the shop assistant quickly entered the Pill Pavilion. In less than two minutes, a bald man hurriedly walked out with the shop assistant.
"May I ask, are you the Dan Master who came to Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion to deliver pills?" As soon as the man came out, he cupped his fists and asked Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji nodded and said with a hint of doubt, "That's right. I promised Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion some Jie Jin Pills, and I've come to deliver them today. May I ask who you are?"
"I am Kang Huapei, the shopkeeper of Jian Ting Pill Pavilion. Please come inside for a chat, friend," the bald man invited with a smile on his face.
"Sure, Shopkeeper Kang, please lead the way," Mo Wuji said, waving his hand, not caring.
Kang Huapei led Mo Wuji directly to the reception room on the second floor, had someone bring Mo Wuji a pot of spiritual tea, and then said, "May I ask where the Dan Master comes from, and what is your name?"
Mo Wuji waved his hand. "When I cooperated with the shopkeeper of Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion, I never cared about these formalities. Please just tell me where Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion went after leaving here. I'll find them myself."
Kang Huapei said with some difficulty, "If I don't know the Dan Master's background, I don't know how to talk."
Mo Wuji frowned immediately. "I'm just a rogue cultivator, with no background to speak of. It was just a chance encounter that I met the shopkeeper of Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion. I helped him refine pills, and he helped me collect some spiritual herbs. As for the Jie Jin Pills, I promised them to Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion, and then I got them from elsewhere."
Hearing Mo Wuji's words, Kang Huapei said with a smile, "The person in charge of Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion here offended someone and was worried about being bullied, so he transferred the Pill Pavilion to our young master."
In fact, when he heard Mo Wuji say that the Jie Jin Pills came from elsewhere, he really began to believe Mo Wuji's words. If Mo Wuji said that he refined the Jie Jin Pills himself, he would definitely not believe it.
"Who did they offend?" Mo Wuji quickly asked.
"It's the Yu Lin Lei Clan, the one that produced Lei Hongji," Kang Huapei said casually, taking a sip of tea after speaking. After knowing that the Jie Jin Pills were not refined by Mo Wuji himself, he became even more indifferent.
The Yu Lin Lei Clan was just a Earth-ranked family before, and it couldn't be considered anything among the many sects. However, after Lei Hongji appeared, the Yu Lin Lei Clan naturally rose in status. Lei Hongji was a top genius of the Great衍 Sect, and also had a Supreme Grade Lightning Spiritual Root. Even more, it was said that Lei Hongji was selected to go to the True Morrow Continent.
Seeing Kang Huapei's attitude, Mo Wuji knew that the news of the Yu Lin Lei Clan being destroyed had not yet reached here.
"Who is your young master?" Mo Wuji asked again.
"He is He Jianting, a true disciple of the Quasi-Heaven Ranked sect, Bi Luo Sect. Although our young master doesn't have a Lightning Spiritual Root, he has a Body Tempering Lightning Technique. He will have a better chance of surviving the tribulation in the future," Kang Huapei said proudly.
Mo Wuji immediately remembered. He Jianting of Bi Luo Sect. This guy wanted a Lightning Refining Room from him, and he ignored him, offending this guy. This He Jianting does have a good appearance, but he is a bit self-righteous.
At this moment, Mo Wuji understood. The Lei Clan must have found out about his relationship with Zhen Shaoke of Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion, and then looked for trouble with Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion everywhere. And this He Jianting took advantage of the situation and attacked Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion.
"Shopkeeper Kang, this place wasn't transferred from Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion to Jian Ting Pill Pavilion, was it? Did the Lei Clan seize this place and then transfer it to you?" Mo Wuji asked calmly.
Kang Huapei laughed. "It's all the same, all the same. You're a Dan Master, and we're a Pill Pavilion. Your cooperation with Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion is cooperation, and cooperation with us is the same. We need Jie Jin Pills. Why don't you let us sell your Jie Jin Pills for you?"
Mo Wuji stood up. "Since I promised Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion, I should find Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion first."
Seeing Mo Wuji stand up, Kang Huapei also stood up, blocking Mo Wuji from leaving. "I already said I can buy your Jie Jin Pills, but you still want to leave. Are you looking down on my Jian Ting Pill Pavilion?"
Mo Wuji sneered. This guy found out that he was a rogue cultivator, coveted the Jie Jin Pills, and wanted to buy them by force.
"It's not that I look down on your Jian Ting Pill Pavilion, but because these Jie Jin Pills were refined with my own spiritual herbs. After coming here, Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion wanted to give me Golden Yang Fruits to refine Jie Jin Pills in exchange," Mo Wuji said lightly.
The spiritual herbs for refining Jie Jin Pills are the most difficult to obtain, because the main herb, Golden Yang Fruit, cannot be cultivated artificially. It must be wild. Wild things, no matter how many there are, will gradually dry up as more people need them.
So Golden Yang Fruits are very precious, more valuable than some Rank 6 or 7 spiritual herbs.
"How to exchange?" Kang Huapei asked immediately.
Mo Wuji took out two jade bottles and said, "One bottle in exchange for one fruit."
"I happen to have a Golden Yang Fruit here," Kang Huapei said, taking out a jade box, even taking the initiative to hand the jade box to Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji took the jade box, opened it, and felt a strong natural Yuan power. This Yuan power surrounded the golden fruit in the jade box.
To be honest, Mo Wuji saw a Golden Yang Fruit for the first time, but he was sure that this fruit was real.
He put away the Golden Yang Fruit and threw the jade bottle to Kang Huapei, saying, "Here's the stuff, goodbye."
Kang Huapei grabbed the jade bottle, didn't even open it, and stopped Mo Wuji again. "Now that you've taken the Golden Yang Fruit, please leave the Jie Jin Pills behind."
"Sure, take out another Golden Yang Fruit," Mo Wuji said lightly.
Kang Huapei's face darkened. "Didn't I give you the Golden Yang Fruit already? You, a wandering rogue Dan Master, are even trying to extort my Jian Ting Pill Pavilion? If you don't apologize today, don't even think about walking out of my Jian Ting Pill Pavilion."
Just a moment ago, he was talking nicely to Mo Wuji, and the next moment, he turned against him. Mo Wuji also sighed at how quickly Kang Huapei's face changed. He was sure that the image of him taking the Golden Yang Fruit was recorded by the other party. If he had a backer, this image would be shown. If he didn't have a backer, this image would never be seen.
Mo Wuji didn't continue to talk about the Golden Yang Fruit. Instead, he asked calmly, "Did He Jianting participate in driving away Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion?"
Kang Huapei felt that something was wrong. Logically speaking, a rogue Dan Master should be nervous under his threat and even reveal his background. But he couldn't see any nervousness on Mo Wuji's face.
He quickly grabbed the jade bottle that Mo Wuji had given him earlier and opened it. He was immediately furious. "You want to exchange a Golden Yang Fruit for a bottle of the worst Qi Condensation Pills? You're trying to cheat my Jian Ting Pill Pavilion! You're really asking for death..."
He couldn't finish his words, because Mo Wuji had already grabbed his neck.
"You..." Kang Huapei was covered in cold sweat. He clearly saw that Mo Wuji didn't have any spiritual aura. No matter how high his cultivation was, it wouldn't exceed the Yuan Dan Realm. And he himself was in the Transcending Mortality Level 7. Jian Ting Pill Pavilion even had Yuan Dan experts stationed there. How could this person subdue him so quickly? He had no ability to resist?
Mo Wuji's cold voice rang in his ears. "I'll tell you something. The Yu Lin Lei Clan was just destroyed by me, so don't use the Bi Luo Sect to threaten me. In my eyes, the Bi Luo Sect will follow in the footsteps of the Lei Clan sooner or later. I'm asking you questions now. If you answer one incorrectly, I'll break your neck. Remember, I also have a name called Rogue Cultivator 2705. I can even show you my points badge."
After Mo Wuji destroyed the Yu Lin Lei Clan, he came directly to Border Town. He didn't even change his appearance. So, in Kang Huapei's eyes, he was still just an ordinary middle-aged cultivator.
Kang Huapei naturally didn't believe it when he heard Mo Wuji say that he had destroyed the Yu Lin Lei Clan. What he was afraid of was that his life was in Mo Wuji's hands. When Mo Wuji said that he was Rogue Cultivator 2705, he immediately felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. If someone else destroyed the Yu Lin Lei Clan, he would think it was a dream. But if Rogue Cultivator 2705 said he destroyed the Yu Lin Lei Clan, then it was really possible.
Who is Rogue Cultivator 2705? The first on the Hundred Sect Alliance Contribution List, with hundreds of thousands of points. How many extraterrestrial cultivators would he have to kill to achieve that?
What is destroying the Yu Lin Lei Clan to such a strong person?
The next moment, he saw Mo Wuji's points badge. It was really Rogue Cultivator 2705, with more than one hundred thousand points clearly recorded on it.
The rumors are false, Kang Huapei only had one voice screaming in his heart. Rogue Cultivator 2705 was not taken away by that expert from the True Morrow Continent. He escaped.
"I'll start asking you now. Remember, I don't have the patience to ask a second time. First, besides the Lei Clan, did He Jianting and the Bi Luo Sect take action to destroy Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion?"
Mo Wuji's voice was very low. After hearing Mo Wuji's voice, Kang Huapei suddenly felt his neck loosen. He quickly answered in a trembling voice, "The Bi Luo Sect didn't take action. The young master did."
"Second question, where did Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion go? Where is Zhen Shaoke of Jiu Yue Pill Pavilion?"
"Senior, I really don't know. I have always admired you, Senior, and I would never lie..."
Kang Huapei's voice stopped abruptly. Mo Wuji broke his neck. He believed that Kang Huapei didn't know. At this time, he didn't have the strength to deal with the Bi Luo Sect, nor did he have the time to deal with He Jianting. After he rebuilt the Heaven's Secret Sect, he would find the Bi Luo Sect.
...
Outside of Heaven's Mouth Town, Pu Qian and his group of four were confronting hundreds of bandits.
If Pu Qian and the others weren't all cultivators above the Transcending Mortality Realm, these hundreds of people would have pounced on them long ago. Similarly, for Pu Qian and the others, if the other side didn't have a prince from the Bright Han Empire, they would have rushed up long ago as well. Killing those bandits was no problem, but could a prince from the Bright Han Empire be killed casually? Even the previous Heaven's Secret Sect couldn't do anything to the prince of the Bright Han Empire and had to rent out the auxiliary peak of the Heaven's Secret Sect to them.
