Mo Wuji originally intended to promote his status as a Rank 7 Venerable Pill Emperor, so naturally, he didn't mince words at all. "Of course, if City Lord Ku needs to refine any Rank 7 or Rank 8 Immortal Pills in the future, you can also come to me."
For Mo Wuji, advancing to Rank 8 Pill Emperor was only a matter of time.
Ku Zhu was even more pleasantly surprised when he heard this. It was indeed a Rank 8 Pill Emperor! It should be known that in the entire Immortal World, the person with the highest level of Pill Dao was none other than Xiao Lishi, a Rank 8 Peak Pill Emperor. Moreover, Xiao Lishi looked like a young man, but everyone knew that Xiao Lishi was an old geezer who had lived for millions of years. Compared to potential, Xiao Lishi was far inferior to Mo Wuji.
"Brother Mo, please take a seat in the front row." After knowing that Mo Wuji was a Rank 8 Pill Emperor, Ku Zhu changed his form of address to Brother Mo.
Even though he was an Immortal Emperor, the identity of a Rank 8 Pill Emperor was not much lower than that of an Immortal Emperor. As the City Lord of Tianqian Immortal City and an Immortal Emperor, he would need the help of a Rank 8 Pill Emperor in many places.
Don't look down on Xiao Lishi just because he is also a Rank 8 Pill Emperor. He is the Alliance Master of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance, and his status and position are higher than that of Ku Zhu. If he wants to ask Xiao Lishi to refine pills, he doesn't know how much he will have to pay, and he might even have to bow and scrape. But Mo Wuji was different. He was a rogue cultivator, and asking him to refine pills would definitely be simpler and easier. If he could befriend Mo Wuji and become friends with him...
As the City Lord of Tianqian Immortal City, how could Ku Zhu not understand the difference? As for Mo Wuji's enemy, Lun Cai, Ku Zhu didn't care. Lun Cai was pretending to be crazy and wouldn't dare to vent his anger on Tianqian Immortal City.
Under Ku Zhu's personal guidance, Mo Wuji sat in a conspicuous spot in the first row. Around him were either the leaders of various sects or the overlords of the major Immortal Realms.
"Brother Mo, please sit at ease. Some parts of the Tianqian Immortal Tower can be considered my property. I need to go and entertain other guests. In a moment, Emperor Xu is coming over, and I need to go and welcome him." After Mo Wuji and Han Long sat down, Ku Zhu said apologetically.
Mo Wuji stood up. "Immortal Friend Ku, please go ahead. I am very comfortable here."
Mo Wuji naturally understood Ku Zhu's intention to befriend him, and he did not refuse. Ku Zhu wanted to rely on his Pill Dao, and he also needed a strong friend like Ku Zhu. Whether it was in the mortal world or the Immortal World, this was how reality was. Having a few friends who could go through life and death together was already the greatest blessing. Most friends were made through the exchange of various interests. This was reality and also inevitable.
As soon as Ku Zhu left, several nearby cultivators took the initiative to greet Mo Wuji. Everyone nearby had heard Mo Wuji say that he was a Rank 7 Venerable Pill Emperor. Who wouldn't want to befriend a Rank 7 Venerable Pill Emperor? Or rather, take advantage of Mo Wuji's low cultivation level to befriend him as soon as possible. Once Mo Wuji's cultivation level increased, even if they wanted to befriend him, they probably wouldn't have the qualifications.
"Welcome Master Xu to the Tianqian Immortal Tower's Immortal Exchange Fair, and congratulations to Master Xu on entering the Rank 9 Artifact Emperor realm, becoming the only Rank 9 Artifact Emperor in the Seven Great Immortal Realms." Ku Zhu's voice came, and all the cultivators in the Immortal Exchange Fair venue stood up to express their welcome to Master Xu.
Mo Wuji saw Ku Zhu and several imposing immortals accompanying a thin man as they walked in. Mo Wuji's first reaction when he saw this thin man was that this guy was actually similar to him, without any Immortal Dao aura on his body. If he didn't know that this person was Xu Su Ren, Mo Wuji was sure that if he met this person on the street, he would only treat him as an ordinary passerby.
In Mo Wuji's mind, since Xu Su Ren was a refiner, he should have a majestic aura, filled with the aura of flames. He didn't expect the real person to be so different from what he imagined. The thin man who was being accompanied by Ku Zhu and others didn't look old and had the appearance of a middle-aged man.
"Greetings, Master Xu!"
"Senior Xu..."
As Xu Su Ren walked along the way, the people around him saluted and greeted him one after another. Xu Su Ren also smiled and gestured along the way, making everyone feel that his gaze had once fallen on them for a long time.
This was indeed a kind of respect, and Mo Wuji also knew that this was also a kind of strength. It could be seen that Xu Su Ren's strength was at least not lower than that of Lun Cai.
Mo Wuji secretly made up his mind that his Pill Dao could be considered to have achieved something, and it seemed that he must improve his cultivation. If his strength was the same as Xu Su Ren's, who would dare to attack the people around him when he was not around?
Just as Mo Wuji was thinking about how to improve his strength, he suddenly felt Xu Su Ren's gaze fall on him. Mo Wuji quickly cupped his fists and greeted him. Xu Su Ren's gaze had already turned away, and Mo Wuji was a little puzzled. Was there something wrong with his feeling just now? He felt that Xu Su Ren had clearly nodded to him, but he didn't see Xu Su Ren nod to him.
"Welcome immortal friends from all the major Immortal Realms to participate in this Immortal Exchange Fair. Ku Zhu would like to thank you all and also hope to use this Immortal Exchange Fair to cleanse the dust for all of you. In order to congratulate Master Xu on successfully entering the Rank 9 Artifact Emperor realm, all transaction items in this Immortal Exchange Fair will only be subject to a 0.5% commission..."
Mo Wuji was stunned and then asked, "Han Long, does the Immortal Exchange Fair also charge a commission?"
Han Long shook her head. "I don't know either, but 0.5% doesn't seem like much."
Mo Wuji frowned slightly. 0.5% wasn't much to others, but it was a lot to him. His main exchange items were Rank 7 Immortal Pills, and the transaction was obviously not just once or twice. If he was charged 0.5% for every transaction, how much would he be charged?
"Giggle! You can tell Ku Zhu to get lost, daring to charge my commission..." A giggle came from behind Mo Wuji, seemingly laughing at Mo Wuji for saying "get lost" three times in a row.
"Pill Master Mo, I'm really sorry, my disciple doesn't understand the rules. Please don't take it to heart. I am Yuan Yi, the abbess of the Jingxin Temple in the Fosa Immortal Realm, and this is my disciple Su Xi." Before Mo Wuji could speak, another apologetic voice sounded.
Mo Wuji turned his head and saw that the speaker was actually two immortal nuns. To put it bluntly, they were two nuns. The older immortal nun, from a worldly perspective, was only in her early twenties, at most not yet thirty, with extremely beautiful features and a natural, clean aura. Mo Wuji was sure that the other party was not this age, maybe she had lived for millions of years. Because this immortal nun's body contained a powerful aura, her cultivation should not be lower than Ku Zhu's.
As for the little immortal nun who joked that she told Ku Zhu to get lost, she looked like a young girl, and with her bald head, she was almost like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl. Although she was very young, her hard-to-hide beautiful appearance was like a peony bursting open, directly crushing her peers.
Mo Wuji didn't think that the little immortal nun was older than him. The little immortal nun's age should be really young. However, Mo Wuji didn't look down on this little girl at all. He could see that the little immortal nun's cultivation was not weaker than him, and she should have just entered the Great Essence Immortal realm.
Jingxin Temple, what a truly rustic name, and at the same time a clichéd name, comparable to his own Ping Fan. Generally, Immortal World sects will choose a name that is a bit more imposing. Just like the Ping Fan he created, if it were someone else, they would at least create a Great Brahma Immortal Gate or a Heavenly Brahma Dao Sect or something.
Only when one reaches Mo Wuji's Heart Dao realm will one know that Ping Fan is the name that best conforms to the Heavenly Dao rhyme of his created cultivation technique. Just like Jingxin Temple, at first glance, it is extremely ordinary, as ordinary as Xu Su Ren's name...
Huh, Xu Su Ren? Mo Wuji suddenly thought that Xu Su Ren looked almost like an ordinary person like him. Could it be that this Xu Su Ren is also cultivating the Immortal Mortal Technique?
"Pill Master Mo, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have joked with you just now..." Seeing that Mo Wuji didn't answer, the little immortal nun Su Xi was also a little worried. The person in front of her was a powerhouse who told Lun Cai to get lost and told the Alliance Master of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance to get lost. Her Jingxin Temple really couldn't afford to offend him. At this moment, she regretted her own talkativeness. The main reason was that Mo Wuji didn't look scary, just like an ordinary person.
Mo Wuji came back to his senses, put Xu Su Ren aside, and said with a smile, "Master Yuan Yi, you're too kind. Junior Sister Su Xi was just joking with me. Such a small matter is really not worth mentioning. Besides, Junior Sister Su Xi, you are so cute and beautiful, I only have reason to be happy when you joke with me."
"Pill Master Mo, do you think I'm pretty?" When Su Xi heard Mo Wuji praise her for being cute and beautiful, her eyes lit up, and her hand involuntarily touched her small face.
This was completely a blank sheet of paper that had not yet been polluted by the big world. Mo Wuji felt a little emotional. It was a good thing that it was him. If it was Lun Cai, that pretending-to-be-crazy bastard, he might have really attacked the cute Su Xi.
"Su Xi, don't be rude." Yuan Yi scolded again.
After scolding, Yuan Yi took the initiative to explain to Mo Wuji, "The Immortal Exchange Fair or the auction at the Tianqian Immortal Tower all charge commissions. As long as a transaction is completed, the general commission is 1.5%, and it is charged to both parties. This time, 0.5% is indeed extremely small."
Mo Wuji gasped. Why didn't they just rob someone? Every transaction was charged 1.5%, and the two parties added up to 3%. This tax was too high, right?
No wonder it was free to live in the Tianqian Immortal Tower. Just imagine, which of those who could obtain the God's Decree was a poor person? These people would definitely participate in the frequently held Immortal Exchange Fairs or auctions. Each commission was enough to feed the Tianqian Immortal Tower.
"...Okay, I won't continue to ramble. This exchange fair will be started by Master Xu..." Ku Zhu finally stopped the introduction.
Mo Wuji finally understood the benefits of sitting in the front row. When someone wanted to exchange something, they could raise a sign, but the selection order started from the first row.
For example, if people in the first five rows raised their signs at the same time, then the people in the first row could give priority to taking out items for exchange. If they were in the same row, then it would depend on the seat number. Mo Wuji's seat number was seventy-eight, which meant that if he and someone in the first row raised their signs at the same time, as long as the other party was not before seventy-eight, then he could report the items he wanted to trade first.
