Having made their decision, the group didn't delay and headed down the mountain.
Seven days later, they arrived at the small town at the foot of the mountain, in front of the clothing shop.
"Gentlemen..."
Upon seeing the visitors, the shopkeeper immediately stepped forward with a beaming smile. When he saw that it was Jun Feijue and his group of "easy targets" acquaintances, he was taken aback for a moment, then became even more delighted and said, "It's been a long time since we last met, ladies and gentlemen. Weren't you in Bangdu? What brings you to visit our humble shop? It's truly an honor."
The town of Mishan is far away, and news from there is scarce. Although there are occasional rumors about the vicious doll gang, the shopkeepers never connected it with Jun Feijue and his group.
Therefore, compared to other insiders, this shop owner was more concerned with how to swindle money from these "easy targets" again.
"Our young lady doesn't like your clothes." Upon seeing this, Jin Yue gritted her teeth slightly and said with a disdainful look.
"If that's the case, why is your young lady still wearing clothes that my family sold?"
The shopkeeper was a little unhappy after Jin Yue's retort. Seeing that they seemed to be there to sabotage rather than buy anything, he lost his smile and pointed at Jun Feijue's black feather robe as he retorted.
"Ha, you have the nerve to say that? This feather robe is made from the skin and feathers of a level three high-level magical beast, the roc. How could an ordinary person like you, who isn't even a cultivator, possibly obtain it?"
Upon hearing this, Jin Yue, who had already prepared her explanation, immediately had a glint in her eyes. The pressure of the fifth level of the Initial Profound Realm pressed down on the shopkeeper, and she questioned sharply, "How dare you deceive my young lady! Tell me, where did you get this thing from!"
"Thump..."
Upon seeing this, the shopkeeper was so frightened that his legs went weak and he knelt down, trembling all over.
"Miss, please spare me! I didn't mean to deceive you! Please forgive me!"
He never expected to encounter a cultivator in such a small place. If even the maid's cultivation level is so high, wouldn't the young lady's cultivation level be even more terrifying?
Thinking of that feathered robe, the shopkeeper was even more incredulous. The hide of a third-tier magical beast! He never expected that the person he casually met that day would be so terrifying, capable of even killing a third-tier magical beast!
What followed was deep regret. Heavens! A level three magical beast! He had only heard of it but never seen such a terrifying existence. He had actually given away the hide and feathers he obtained from it as a free gift!
Damn it, he thought he got a great deal, but it turns out he was the one who got sucked out!
"I'll spare you, but tell the truth!"
Seeing the shopkeeper's terrified expression, Jin Yue felt a surge of satisfaction and proudly raised her chin as she spoke.
"Yes, yes, actually I found that fur coat."
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper dared not conceal anything and immediately recounted the entire story in one go.
It turns out that the feathered robe was found by the shopkeeper seven years ago on the body of a dead person on the outskirts of the town.
When he saw someone lying on the ground, he really wanted to help, but when he got closer, he found that the person was already dead.
Just as he was about to leave, he saw the fur feathers peeking out from the man's arms. He was a merchant, so he immediately recognized that it was a valuable item. He was tempted by greed and took it without thinking.
Unexpectedly, just as he put the things away, he faintly heard some noise in the distance. Feeling guilty, he immediately hid on the spot.
Soon after, several masked men approached the dead man and began searching his body.
