Chapter 36: The end of the Shouyang Arena
Take out the twenty cards that I bought in the Void Mall.
She didn't put it in the storage bag because it costs 2 points to put it in and take it out. Now she only has a few dozen points, and she feels bad to use even 1 point.
Chen Zhuo was surprised: "This is..."
"Hand card, Patriarch Chen should know what this is."
"I know, but didn't you give me one before, Manager Xu?"
Xu Qiuqian hummed: "These twenty cards are given to Patriarch Chen, and they still have the same function as the previous cards."
Chen Zhuo was thinking, even if I don't have a hand card, can't I go to the store to order it? What's the use of this hand card?
But he didn't say anything and accepted Xu Qiuqian's kindness.
The two of them left the hall together.
Chen Wei was pacing back and forth anxiously, and when he saw the door of the hall open, he hurried forward.
"Sister Qiu Qian, are you okay? Did my father do anything to you?!" He looked so anxious that if you didn't know him, you would think that Xu Qiu Qian saw his enemy instead of his father.
"Wei Er!" Chen Zhuozheng scolded in a deep voice, "How can you say that?"
No matter how good your temper is, you can't stand Chen Wei saying this again and again.
Chen Wei rolled his eyes: "Why? Did I say something wrong? Didn't you call Sister Qiu Qian here just to ask her about the whereabouts of the Nether Fire? Don't think I don't know what you are up to! In the eyes of people like you, there is nothing else except profit. If you hadn't been so greedy back then, my mother wouldn't have..."
"Chen Wei!" Chen Zhuozheng's face darkened completely.
Seeing this, Xu Qiuqian said, "Patriarch Chen, I'm leaving first."
After saying that, he turned around and left the Chen family.
Before he had taken a few steps, someone from the Chen family came out to chase him. He was a young man who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, with delicate features.
"Manager Xu, the clan leader asked me to see you off."
"No, I still need to go shopping."
"It's okay. I'll go with Manager Xu. The clan leader has ordered me to take you back to the store. My name is Chen Guanye, and Manager Xu can just call me Xiaoye."
It seemed that Chen Zhuozheng could see that her spiritual vein was damaged, so he sent someone to escort her. However, although Chen Zhuozheng saw it, his attitude did not change at all, so Xu Qiuqian looked up to him even more.
In this world of immortal cultivation where strength is everything, Chen Zhuo is the first one who is willing to cooperate with her regardless of strength.
Xu Qiuqian agreed.
She went to Jinghong Street. There were fewer people there than in previous times.
Suddenly she remembered something.
"Isn't the Shouyang Arena during this period?"
"Yes, but the Shouyang competition ended yesterday, and the top ten were invited to the City Lord's Mansion as guests."
I was busy dealing with the Zhao family's affairs during this period. Time passed so quickly that I didn't even realize that the Shouyang competition was over.
No wonder there were suddenly more people coming here in the past two days, although they were all scared away by the Zhao family at that time.
"Who is the leader?"
"An inner disciple of the Ying family."
"Ying family?"
Isn't that Yu Jun? "The Ying family is a beast taming family, and most of their shops sell spiritual beasts. I heard that half a year ago, the Ying family got a third-level exotic eagle, which was extremely powerful. Later, it was obtained by a disciple of the inner clan. I think it is the champion of this Shouyang Arena."
Xu Qiuqian nodded.
The third level is equivalent to the middle stage of foundation building, so it is normal that Yu Jun cannot get the top spot.
It’s a pity. If Yu Jun could win the first place, she would definitely be able to attract more customers to her store.
But she got more important information.
No wonder the Ying family did not agree to cooperate with her. What the Ying family valued was not the alchemy array and the talismans, but the spirit beasts. The Ying family felt that the alchemy array and the talismans sold in her store, plus the relationship with Zhao Wen, and seeing that she was just a small grocery store, they did not take her seriously at all.
Xu Qiuqian curled her lips.
The Void Store has everything from elixirs to arrays and instruments, but she never said that there were only elixirs to arrays and instruments.
She knew how to agree to let the Ying family cooperate with her, but she still needed to think about how to do it.
After buying the spirit beast meat, she thought that since Yun Yi had cleaned up the courtyard, she might as well add some things to the courtyard. The last time she went to see Yun Yi, the things in several rooms on the second floor were rotten and completely unusable, and there was a musty smell.
So Xu Qiuqian bought a lot of furniture. Thinking of the many books that Chen Wei brought, he bought several large bookshelves. They were all for mortals to use, and a few spirit stones could buy a lot of them.
These things were not bought from the same store, and it cost 1 point each time to put them into the storage bag. Xu Qiuqian felt so distressed that he asked Chen Guanye to put them into his storage bag first, and then asked Yun Yi to put them into the storage bag that Chen Wei had given him when they returned to the store.
It’s a bit troublesome, but it saves points!
"Manager Xu, I'll go back and report first."
Xu Qiuqian responded: "Okay, go ahead."
As soon as Chen Guanye left, Xu Qiuqian entered the store and found that there was another person in the store.
"Daoist Yu Jun."
Yu Jun stood up and said embarrassedly: "I came here as soon as I came out of the City Lord's Mansion."
Xu Qiuqian was surprised.
Going to the City Lord’s Mansion means that Yu Jun ranks in the top ten.
She smiled and congratulated him, "Congratulations on ranking in the top ten."
Yu Jun felt even more embarrassed, "It's only seventh place."
But from his expression, we can tell that he was in a good mood and he didn't seem angry about not winning the first place.
Sure enough, Yu Jun said with a little pride: "I am the only one in the top ten who is at the seventh level of Qi Refining. The others are all above the tenth level."
Although he had aimed for the championship, he also knew that his cultivation was too low and he was just doing his best. Being able to get seventh place was already a pleasant surprise.
"Speaking of which, I have to thank Manager Xu. If it weren't for your Shadow Moon Blade, I definitely wouldn't have reached seventh place."
Because he was the only one at the seventh level of Qi Refining in the first ten miles, he was noticed by all the major families and many cultivators. The major families also extended olive branches to him, and even the daughter of the city lord who was hosting them, Fellow Daoist Xia Qin, spoke a few more words to him.
Xu Qiuqian shook her head.
"The Shadow Moon Blade is just a magical weapon. How powerful it is depends on who uses it."
Seeing Xu Qiuqian praising him like that, Yu Jun felt happy and proud.
It took me a while to think of the purpose of this trip.
"Manager Xu, I heard some news when I was in the City Lord's Mansion."
"What news?"
"The city lord intends to hold an auction. The auction is mainly to promote friendly exchanges among the various forces in Youling City. Therefore, the participants of the auction are all large and small families, store managers in Youling City, and a small number of powerful independent cultivators. The items for the auction are also provided by the families and store managers. It is estimated that the news will spread soon. If Store Manager Xu is interested, you can pay attention to it."
Xu Qiuqian's eyes lit up.
She was just worried that she couldn't find a way to get the Ying family to agree to cooperate with her, and now the opportunity has come!
But this time, she wasn't the one taking the initiative.
She wanted the Ying family and another family to lower their stance and ask her for cooperation.
In addition, let the Zhao family regret offending her starting from this auction.
