Chapter 210 Slander?
Li Qing looked at Sun Li's back with a calm expression, then turned around and walked forward again.
Hongye suppressed the joy in her eyes and quickly followed. Standing beside Li Qing, she asked softly, "What does the guest need? I'll take him to buy it right away."
Li Qing said calmly: "I need a pill that can improve the body."
"Body-refining pills? Let me think about it."
Upon hearing this, Hongye pretended to think for a moment, then said happily, "I got it! The body-refining elixir sold in Room 43 is very effective and the price is fair. Please follow me, sir."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and took half a step in front of Li Qing to lead the way.
Li Qing naturally paced and followed.
If there really were good celestial immortal or true immortal-level body-refining pills, Li Qing wouldn't mind if they sold them at a higher price. After all, how expensive could they be?
There are ninety-nine attics on the second floor. Although these shops all belong to the Yin family, they are divided into different factions, so there is competition among them.
It is not clear whether Shop No. 43 is good or not, but Hongye is definitely from this shop, so they try to get all the business to themselves. Of course, if the customers are not satisfied, they will still take them to other shops.
After walking around for a while, Hongye brought Li Qing to the door of a shop.
Number forty-three.
There aren't many people in shop No. 43. After all, no matter how many people there are, they will naturally become very sparse after being distributed among the ninety-nine shops.
"Sir, this is it. Look, the pills on the shelf are all excellent."
After leading Li Qing in, Hongye pointed at the dazzling array of elixirs in the shop and said with a smile on her face.
Li Qing walked in with his hands behind his back, and looked along the counter at the elixirs that Hongye had introduced in such a fantastic way, as if eating just one of them would be enough to make him a Golden Immortal in the flesh.
One by one, one bottle.
Li Qing originally thought there would be some good stuff, but after patiently looking around, he discovered that the so-called best ones here, the elixirs that can be used by earthly immortals to refine their bodies, and even by celestial immortals to have the effect of refining their bodies, are not even as good as the Yin-Yang Hehuan Body Refining Pill!
In other words, even if he bought this so-called best elixir, taking it would not help Li Qing's current physical body in the slightest!
"Is there no elixir that the guest is interested in?"
Hongye saw Li Qing turning around with an increasingly unhappy expression on his face, so he bowed with a smile and asked carefully.
"These pills are too ineffective."
Li Qing didn't hesitate and shook his head, saying, "I want a better pill."
"joke!"
However, as soon as Li Qing finished speaking, before Hongye could say anything, an angry voice came over.
A gaunt old man suddenly appeared, looking at Li Qing with disdain. "You're just a mere earthly immortal. I don't know how you managed to get to the second floor. But that's fine. How dare you say these pills are ineffective? That's ridiculous! You're just a mere earthly immortal. Just pick up a bottle of pills here, and its efficacy is enough to burst you!"
When Hongye saw the old man, she immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Shopkeeper Liang."
As for Li Qing, he glanced at the old man, then withdrew his gaze, turned to look at Hongye and said calmly: "Is there any elixir better than the one here?"
"Youngster, you are so presumptuous."
Being ignored! As the owner and alchemist of Shop No. 43, he personally refined most of the elixirs in Shop No. 43. On the second floor, he was highly respected! But now, he was being ignored by a minor earthly immortal cultivator!
Suddenly, Shopkeeper Liang shouted loudly, pointing at Li Qing and saying, "Where did you come from, boy? How dare you be so rude? Do you think I can't do anything to you in this Yin's Treasure Pavilion?"
"What? The pills here are not good, and we can't let people say it? It's interesting. People on the first floor are not allowed to go to the second floor, and we are not allowed to say the pills on the second floor are not good. Is your Yin's Treasure Pavilion a shady shop?"
After hearing the scolding, Li Qing finally turned his head and looked at the shopkeeper Liang. He did not look very angry, but just spoke calmly.
"You are so outrageous! Outrageous!!"
When Shopkeeper Liang heard what Li Qing said, he was instantly furious! His hair and beard flew in the air, and the pressure of a True Immortal erupted!
Hongye's face changed drastically when Li Qing finished speaking. Just as she was about to say something, she was forced to take several steps back by the pressure from Manager Liang.
At the same time, all the other monks in the store heard the roar that was no longer suppressed, and their expressions changed as they turned around to look over.
Only Li Qing remained calm, and was not deterred by the so-called pressure.
Shopkeeper Liang was clearly furious. He no longer considered why the Earth Immortal cultivator before him could face his True Immortal pressure without even taking a single step back. Instead, he shouted, "How dare you call Yin's Treasure Pavilion a scam?"
"hehe."
Seeing this, Li Qing smiled faintly and said, "Your current behavior makes me even more certain that this is a shady shop. The people around here are just spectators."
"you!"
Shopkeeper Liang was originally furious, but after hearing what Li Qing said, he was stunned for a moment, then raised his finger and pointed at Li Qing, unable to speak for a moment.
But he was, after all, a True Immortal of the Tenth Level, and he still had some skills in cultivating his Qi. Therefore, he took two deep breaths, pointed at Li Qing and said indifferently, "My Yin's Treasure Pavilion is naturally not a scam, but what you said before about the poor efficacy of the elixirs here is an insult to my Yin's Treasure Pavilion! If you don't give me an explanation, I will not let you go."
As the word "retire" came out, the murderous intent in Manager Liang's eyes became very obvious!
Even if this little monk has some background, if he dares to act so presumptuously here, he must pay the price! Otherwise, wouldn't the Yin family's prestige over the years become a joke? Wouldn't the Yin family's treasure pavilion become a place where anyone can come and humiliate them?
"Explain? What's there to explain? The medicine is bad, it's bad. A pill that can't even improve my physical strength, it's not bad. Am I still lying and saying it's a good thing?"
Li Qing ignored the murderous intent in Manager Liang's eyes, smiled faintly, and shook his head.
"You didn't even eat it! You didn't even use it! How can you say the medicine is ineffective?! Just because you come here and look around, you can say the medicine is bad? You are totally ignorant! You don't know how to live or die!"
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Liang sneered, then stared at Li Qing and said, "How dare you insult the elixirs of my Yin's Treasure Pavilion?"
"I've bought elixirs from Senior Liang several times, and the effects have always been excellent. How could they be ineffective? Boy, if you can't afford it, then don't lie. Otherwise, even if Senior Liang has a good temper, he won't tolerate your slander."
However, among the monks who were watching, a man laughed and spoke as if to help Li Qing out of the predicament.
"If you can't afford it, just go to the first floor! Don't come here to disgust me!"
When Manager Liang heard what this person said, the violence in his eyes subsided a little, and turned into more of teasing and mocking. He looked at Li Qing and sneered.
