Chapter 488: Misfortune Continues
Longwei Peak, Yulong Market, Ning’s Shop.
Ning Daoran appeared in the shop gracefully, dusted himself off, and acted as if nothing had happened.
Hidden deep in Dragon King Mountain was a powerful son of the Dragon King, who also had a dragon servant in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. This was too horrifying, and Ning Daoran had already designated that area as a "forbidden area" in his mind.
The attraction of the dragon demon essence is indeed great, but life is more important. With the combat power of the Dragon King's son and a dragon servant in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, Ning Daoran may not be his opponent even if he successfully advances from the Nascent Soul stage to the early stage in the future.
Since you can't defeat him, don't provoke him anymore, so as not to hurt yourself!
So, he once again lived in seclusion in Yulongfang Market, quietly healing his wounds, devoting himself to his practice, and ignoring what was happening outside the window.
…
A few months later, it was already early spring.
Young bamboo shoots are sprouting in the bamboo forest, and you can smell the fragrance of early spring soil even when you are in the shop.
At this time, a female cultivator in the late Jindan stage arrived at Yulongfang Market.
She was dressed in a white dress, with a sword hanging from her waist, and had a very dignified appearance. One could tell at first glance that she was an accomplished person. She was none other than Bai Ying, the legendary owner of the Fengxue Tower, a woman whose words carried great weight in the Longwang Mountain area.
Most of the people in the neighborhood recognized Bai Ying, and some of the senior officials bowed and were extremely respectful.
Bai Ying nodded and greeted everyone one by one, and she was quite familiar with Yulong Market.
Not long after, Bai Ying strolled to the front of Ning's shop and turned around and walked into the shop.
"Fellow Daoist, are you Master Ning Fu?"
The first thing Bai Ying saw was Ning Daoran, who was wearing a green shirt.
"Exactly."
Ning Daoran stood up quickly, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Master Bai, your presence has brought honor to our humble shop. I am sorry to be so rude..."
"Master Ning Fu, you are too polite."
Bai Ying smiled and said, "I have lived in the mountains for a long time and have not been out for a long time. I heard Feiyu mention Master Ning, saying that he is an extremely powerful and easy-going third-level master, so I came over to take a look."
"I see."
Ning Daoran nodded happily: "Xiaobai, serve tea."
"Yes, sir!"
Xiaobai began to brew tea with skillful movements and graceful posture.
Bai Ying's eyes swept over Xiaobai's body, but she couldn't see anything fishy. Although this woman was extremely beautiful, she didn't have the slightest demonic aura. She seemed to be just an ordinary human female cultivator.
"Master Ning Fu."
Bai Ying took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "I heard that the young master of the Fulong Sect, Han Liang, had been here before and even invited Master Ning to serve as the resident master of the Fulong Sect. But I don't know why he refused?"
"Ning is used to being an idler, and his temperament has become wild."
Ning Daoran smiled calmly: "Of course I don't want to become a bird kept in a cage by others. If I open a shop by myself, I can open it when I want and leave when I want. Wouldn't it be much more free?"
"That's true."
Bai Ying smiled and said, "I came here just to meet Master Ning Fu. After all, my Fei Yu has a very good impression of Master Ning Fu. I also think that Master Ning Fu is a frank person, unlike those petty people who care about every little thing. Therefore, I came here just to establish a good relationship with Master Ning Fu, nothing else."
As she spoke, Bai Ying took out a can of tea leaves and said with a smile, "Fengxue Spiritual Tea has an excellent taste. I heard that Master Ning Fu also likes it, so I brought another ten kilograms as a gift."
This is no small amount.
It is said that the price of this Fengxue Spiritual Tea is extremely expensive. Some shops sell it by the piece. Bai Ying sold ten kilograms of it, and its value is probably more than ten thousand spirit stones! Such a large sum of money is really incomparable to ordinary cultivators.
"That's great."
Ning Daoran smiled slightly, accepted the spiritual tea, and said, "I have planted some fruits and vegetables in the backyard of the talisman shop. Please wait a moment, Master Bai. I will go pick some fresh ones and let you take them back to taste. Although it is just a mere appetite, it is also enjoyable for us to try it occasionally."
"Okay, I will obey your command."
Bai Ying smiled and nodded.
Ning Daoran went straight to the backyard carrying a basket and came back soon.
At this time, the basket was filled with vegetables such as peppers, lentils, potatoes, cucumbers, eggplants, etc. In addition, there were two spirit chickens with tied feet in her hands, which she handed over to Bai Ying.
Bai Ying was the dignified master of Fengxue Tower and a fairy who was famous in the area around Longwang Mountain, but she had to carry two spiritual chickens, with a slightly embarrassed look on her face.
This Master Ning Fu is indeed too different from others.
"Master Ning Fu, I have another matter to attend to this visit."
Bai Ying took out a shopping list and said, "This is an order from my Fengxue Tower. I'm still ordering two hundred third-level low-grade talismans at the same price as last time. What do you think, Master Ning?"
"Can."
Ning Daoran's eyes lit up: "For such a large order, I should thank Fengxue Tower for its care. Thank you very much!"
"Master Ning Fu, you're so polite!"
Bai Ying held the chicken in one hand and covered her mouth with the other as she chuckled. For a moment, she not only had the gentleness and virtuousness of a farm girl, but also the gracefulness of a mountain fairy.
"In that case, I will leave first."
Bai Ying smiled and said, "I'll ask Fei Yu to come pick up the goods in three months."
"good."
Ning Daoran watched Bai Ying leave, and then began to refine talismans. Refining two hundred talismans within three months was indeed a big job and must be taken seriously.
…
As spring turns to summer, the Yulongfang market remains as peaceful as ever.
When the peach and plum trees in the backyard were in full bloom, the white drizzle arrived as expected.
"Master Ning Fu."
She was still dressed in white clothes, with a beautiful face. She smiled and said, "Fei Yu came here to pick up the two hundred talismans at the order of Master. Here is the order receipt. Please have a look at it, Master Ning."
"good."
Ning Daoran asked Xiaobai to serve tea while carefully checking the order and deposit receipt. He smiled and said, "It's confirmed. Fairy, please wait a moment. I'll go get the talisman right away."
"Okay, no rush."
Bai Feiyu sat there quietly, exuding an air of elegance and calmness.
Not long after, Ning Daoran walked out of the training room, holding a brand new storage bag in his hand and offering it: "Two hundred talismans are all in it, Fairy Bai, please count them clearly."
"Thank you!"
Bai Feiyu took the storage bag and scanned it with his spiritual sense. The storage bag had not been refined. There were two hundred third-level low-grade talismans neatly lying inside. The number was confirmed to be correct. Such a large number of third-level talismans were enough for Fengxue Tower to consume in the next period of time.
"This is the final payment. Please count it clearly, Master Ning Fu."
Bai Feiyu took out the remaining spirit stones.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Ning Daoran just glanced at it and smiled, "Okay, the money and goods are settled. It's getting late. Fairy, would you like to have dinner in the shop before returning to Fengxue Tower?"
"this……"
A trace of hesitation flashed across Bai Feiyu's pretty face. She really wanted to stay a little longer, but the situation today was special. Her master asked her to go and come back quickly and not to delay. She had no choice at all.
"Fei Yu wants to, but I'm busy today..."
She pursed her red lips, and her beautiful big eyes seemed to be able to speak: "Master Ning Fu, how about another day?"
"Can."
Ning Daoran nodded: "Since the fairy has other things to do, it's okay to do it next time."
"Um!"
Bai Feiyu smiled and nodded, then bowed and left.
Ning Daoran watched Bai Feiyu disappear at the end of the market.
"go!"
He raised his hand lightly, and a grade-one paper figure flew out from his sleeve and transformed into a young swordsman carrying a magic sword on his back. He had a very strong aura and had reached the late Jindan level.
"Follow Bai Feiyu quietly. If anything unexpected happens, you can take action directly."
Ning Daoran raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Fengxue Tower is the Ning family's largest partner, so nothing can happen to it."
"yes!"
The first-class paper figurine instantly performed the techniques of the Immovable Vidyaraja Divine Art and the Great Void Evolution Technique, then floated away from the backyard and disappeared silently in the Yulong Market.
"Sir."
On the side, Xiao Bai smiled and said, "Are we finally going to be involved in the conflict of Dragon King Mountain?"
"Not really."
Ning Daoran frowned, "I just drank so much spiritual tea from Fengxue Tower. If I watch Bai Feiyu being killed by the robbery cultivator, I will never feel at ease."
"Too."
Xiaobai landed on the recliner and said with a smile: "Business is slow today, no customers come~~~"
Ning Daoran rolled his eyes.
With the big order of 200 talismans from Fengxue Tower, it doesn't matter if there are no customers coming. After all, what they are doing now is mainly the business of third-level talismans. Ordinary cultivators have little demand for third-level talismans, and talismans are too expensive for ordinary cultivators to afford.
It's a policy that you either don't open the store or you open it and make a living for three years, so it's normal to have few customers.
…
Outside Longwei Peak, there is a green leaf forest.
Three golden lights flew past in the air. The person leading the group was Bai Feiyu, who had just left the Ning family shop not long ago. Two middle-stage Jindan followed on both sides.
One is an old man with an immortal look, and the other is an old lady who looks extremely kind and noble. Both are elders of Fengxue Tower, and this time they are responsible for escorting Bai Feiyu to pick up the goods from the Ning family shop.
The three of them were in a hurry and walked very quickly.
Perhaps the incident that happened last time with the robbery cultivator had already left a shadow in Bai Feiyu's heart. If any accident happened again, the prestige of Fengxue Tower in the Longwang Mountain area would decline again, which would be an extremely bad situation for Fengxue Tower.
"Feiyu, don't worry."
The old man frowned, his eyes were extremely deep, looking at the dense forest, he said: "The reason why the group of robbery cultivators almost succeeded last time was because you were alone, fighting against many people, but this time it is completely different, I will escort you with Elder Lin, even if the group of robbery cultivators come back, we are enough to deal with it."
"Um!"
Bai Feiyu nodded slightly: "Thank you for the trip, both elders."
"Fei Yu, you are too polite! This is the duty of two of us old guys."
The old woman smiled and shook her head. She was one of the most senior elders in Fengxue Tower. Although she was only in the middle stage of the Golden Core, she had watched Bai Feiyu grow up and was extremely fond of her.
Bai Feiyu smiled faintly. With the two elders following her, she felt indeed safe.
…
"Um?!"
But at this moment, Bai Feiyu's senses suddenly tightened, and an inexplicable feeling instantly enveloped her heart. She hurriedly said: "Two elders, be careful, it seems... it seems that someone is watching us..."
"laugh!"
Before he finished his words, a ray of bright sword light suddenly tore through the woods below, instantly crossing dozens of miles, passing by Bai Feiyu's eyes, and landed on an old woman beside her!
