An hour before Shang receives the warning…
A girl who bought the Whitesnake Softsword appears in front of the shop with a lady in white Hanfu.
The only difference between them is that the lady in white has gray streaks on her long black hair.
Girl: Teacher, this is where I bought the sword.
The girl points at the sign of Shang’s shop.
Lady: Mystery Item Shop? What a weird name for a shop…
The name of girl who bought the sword was Xue Suzhen and is a member of Snow Mountain Sect which is located in the snowy northern regions of the main world.
When Suzhen shows her teacher, Bai Shuiyue the demonic sword, the latter is surprised that such a weapon exist. The most common weapons they have here and seen in the sect are spiritual weapons but to have a demonic weapon which can act as both a guardian spirit and spiritual sword, is extremely rare.
After discussing with the sect leader and the elders, Shuiyue is ordered to find out whether if they can buy more of these demonic weapons as they are seen as valuable assets to the sect. She is also told that if they are unable to buy them, she may try other alternative ways to have good relations with the shop.
Shuiyue: Suzhen, let’s meet the owner who you have mentioned on the way.
Suzhen: Yes, Teacher.
Half an hour later, two more people stand in front of the shop.
One of them is Wang Yuancai who was disgraced in front of the public by Shang and the other is an gray haired elderly man.
Yuancai: Grandpa! This is the place!
Elderly man: Hmm… Mystery Item Shop? I don’t care whether you have connections with the head of Wang Family or a strong immortal. If you think you can just get away from bullying my grandson, then you are very wrong.
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
This elderly man is named Wang Juncai who is one of the Wang Family’s elders and one of the immortal guardians of Wing Family’s Ancestor. As a guardian and having the ancestor’s support, Juncai is allowed to interfere with the family affairs even if the head of the family disapproves his actions.
Yuancai: Grandpa, that person who bully me is strong.
Juncai: Hmph, Strong? We will see about that.
Both of them enter the shop.
Fifteen minutes, two figures fly out of the shop.
One of the figure who flew out of the shop backwards with his clothes tattered was Wang Juncai. He did not expect a Marital Teacher ranked Nanami to be at the shop counter.
The second figure is Nanami who is full of killing intent. She is annoyed that someone comes barging in when she managed to find a friend like Shuiyue in Shang’s world who shares the same common interest.
At first, Nanami ignores them while leaving Ah Zi to do the conversing with them. Then Yuancai starts saying they should take one of the girls back to the family as a warning to Shang.
Before Juncai could take down Ah Zi, a needle is fired from Nanami’s fingers.
Juncai mocks the attack in his heart and tries to catch the needle which later burst out into energy blades.
Surprised, Juncai immediately flies out of the shop to evade the blades while Nanami follows him out.
Juncai’s thoughts: A mortal being that has the strength of a spiritual being. Looks like I have stayed indoors for too long.
Both he and Nanami are standing outside like two cowboys having their western duel.
Juncai: Young lady, do you think a mortal being like you could win a spiritual being like me?
Juncai releases his spiritual pressure on Nanami.
Indeed, no matter what martial rank one has, one is still a mortal being. A mortal being that tries to compare his powers with immortals who have become spiritual beings through cultivation is like comparing with heaven and earth.
As a Martial Teacher, Nanami should have no problem resisting spiritual pressure from normal immortals but when facing the pressure from a Higher Immortal like Wang Juncai, she nearly falls to her knees.
Nanami’s thoughts: This is the difference between mortal and immortals?
Seeing that Nanami is unable to resist the pressure, Juncai smirks and slowly walks towards her.
Then a voice rings out, stopping him in his tracks.
????: OLD TIMER! WHO GIVE YOU THE COURAGE TO BULLY MY WOMAN!
Followed by the voice, a killing pressure which changes the color of the sky, engulfs the entire shop area.
