Ruoruo's face scrunched up as she looked at the heavily protected priest tower.
She wouldn't be afraid of a barrier, but there are cultivators patrolling outside. She'd probably be caught as soon as she stepped through the door.
“There should be cultivators with the cultivation level of Upper Immortals stationed inside. There are twelve guards patrolling in rotation. The captains are all Profound Immortals, and there are three commanders, all of whom are Golden Immortals.” After observing for several days, Little Fatty came to this conclusion. “There is no way to sneak in.”
The kitten Ruoruo, crouching in the corner, only showed its tail, making the whole cat look quite ordinary.
Ruoruo the cat asked, "Shall we just go and borrow it from that king?"
However, without revealing their identities, they couldn't even get into the palace.
"The only thing we can offer in exchange is medicinal pills," Ruoruo said. "But how can we get those pills to him?"
“That’s easy.” Mo Jinyan flapped his wings. “We’ll put up a sign to sell pills first, and then cultivate while waiting for an opportunity.”
Yuebai bought a house and a shop, and Ruoruo and the others settled down in the royal city.
He practices meditation every morning and opens a shop to refine and sell elixirs every afternoon.
On the first day of opening, people who wanted to buy pills couldn't help but gasp when they saw the pills sign hanging at the door: "Is this shop owner crazy for money? The prices are so high, he might as well just rob people. Many of the pills are more than ten times more expensive than other shops."
"But all my pills are top-grade pills." Ruoruo sat on the small square table by the door, swinging her little feet, and poured out a pill into her palm.
Her fair complexion made the radiant elixir appear even more magnificent.
Everyone gasped, for they had never seen such a high-quality elixir before.
The crowd, who had initially come out of curiosity to see the exorbitant prices, subconsciously began reaching into their pockets.
A young man dressed in slightly expensive clothes slammed the storage bag onto Ruoruo's table.
"I want every kind of pill!" Top-grade pills are not only several times more potent than ordinary pills, but they don't even require them to bother refining the toxins within them!
It should be noted that excessive consumption of certain elixirs can lead to the accumulation of erysipelas in the body, which can be fatal.
Ruoruo opened the money pouch, counted the spirit stones inside, and happily put them into her bracelet: "Yuebai, give him one of each type of pill."
Only then did everyone notice that there was a man behind her wearing a black robe and a silver mask. The man was completely wrapped in the black robe and had a distant and indifferent demeanor. They hadn't even noticed that there was anyone there before Ruoruo called for help.
Moreover, they had absolutely no way of judging the man's cultivation level.
The person who can make so many people not notice their presence or detect their cultivation level must have an extremely high level of cultivation.
For a moment, those who had been eager to obtain the top-grade pills felt a sense of apprehension.
The first person to buy the medicine took the pills and turned to leave, saying, "Leave some pills for me, I'll come back to buy more later."
"I never have trouble buying my pills, so I won't deliberately save any for you. If you want to buy them, you'd better get in line early." Ruoruo smiled and tossed the spirit stones in her hand.
Her pills sell very well even in the Supreme Heaven. The pills that the little snow leopard brings to the demon realm every day are all sold out. There are always pills that others can't buy, but she can sell them all.
That evening, Ruoruo was sitting at the table happily counting the spirit stones she and Mo Jinyan had earned that day when someone sneaked over from outside.
With a large quantity of top-grade pills in front of them, some people will inevitably find it hard to resist.
A sudden flash of lightning and thunder illuminated the entire street as if it were daytime, followed by the sounds of clashing weapons, the roar of rocks and water, and screams that lasted for about fifteen minutes before finally ending.
"I'll go clean up outside." Yuebai wrapped his cloak around himself and went out, tying up all the corpses and wounded people on the ground with ropes and taking them outside the government office.
The official who came out to take over looked very bad, but he silenced all the rebukes with the recording stone that Yuebai took out.
It was clear that these people broke into a private residence at night, but were blocked by the automatic defensive formations and talismans.
On the way back, Yuebai was even attacked several times, but Ruoruo lent him the Wenshui Water and had the Soul Extinguishing Spear protect Yuebai.
The assassins gained absolutely nothing.
Ruoruo opened the door to welcome Yuebai back. Seeing many neighbors peeking through the cracks in the door and windows, she waved with a smile and said, "Don't worry about me, everyone. I'm fine. My guards will handle these things."
The rest of the people: ...
It seems that the owner of this shop is not someone to be trifled with.
Ruoruo hugged the array plate with delight: "Big brother's stuff is really useful."
Since she planned to come to the Six Realms to find divine artifacts while she was in the Immortal Realm, she naturally wouldn't be completely unprepared.
If strength is insufficient, formations can compensate. The formation plate left by Mo Wuyu, along with her talismans, can ensure that unless she allows it, no one below the cultivation level of an immortal can approach their house.
"Yuebai, how was it when you went out?" Ruoruo asked.
"Seven of them were at the Xuanxian level, and the rest were mostly at the Tianxian level," Yuebai said softly. "Those who came to assassinate me were all at the peak of the Xuanxian level, and the only one who was a Jinxian was not very powerful."
"It seems that the cultivation level of cultivators in the human realm is generally not high." Ruoruo felt more at ease after hearing this. The low cultivation level of cultivators in the human realm would be beneficial for their future endeavors.
The person secretly waiting to reap the benefits kicked the guard beside him in anger: "Useless! You couldn't even handle two people on the other side, and one of them was even a child!"
"The guard on the other side has extremely high cultivation, at least at the Golden Immortal level. We are truly powerless to help him..."
"Well, the other party is so proficient in formations and has such an expert by his side, so his background must be extraordinary. Let's send a few pomelos to investigate first."
After that night, almost no one bothered Ruoruo and her friends anymore. For several days in a row, the pills in Ruoruo's shop were sold out on the same day.
After the quality of the pills was repeatedly confirmed, the entire royal city was engulfed in a wave of people queuing up to buy them. Some people even lined up the night before, stretching from one street to the next.
The other pill shops saw their business decline, and the pill shops on the same street as Ruoruo had almost no customers.
The owner of Cunyitang couldn't resist any longer and went out to inquire about the girl's background.
"That little girl was just a gofer thrown out by that alchemist. The real alchemist is still hiding behind. If he really had a background, why would he let a little girl act as a figurehead? She's just a talented mountain cultivator."
Upon hearing this, the owner of Cunyitang was itching to try his luck at the booming business.
Since they are mountain cultivators, why don't he poach that alchemist? That way, they can also sell top-grade pills.
After all, Cunyitang has powerful backers, so it's not as good as that alchemist throwing a young girl to serve as a facade.
He thought confidently, completely unaware that he had been used as a pawn.
