Chapter 30: Competing with jealousy

"I wonder if the young hero wants to temper his bones or open his veins?"

The essence of the Vajra Realm is to temper bones, and to reach the True Realm, you need to open up the meridians. Both have corresponding star-level medicinal materials.

With a seemingly simple question, the shopkeeper was able to roughly figure out the details of Zhuo Mufeng and estimate the possibility of his purchase.

"I want to see them all."

Zhuo Mufeng smiled.

The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows. This young man was very vigilant. It seemed that he had been out in the world a long time ago and had something to worry about. Soon, the shopkeeper took out a thin booklet.

When I turned it over, each page detailedly recorded different star-rated medicinal materials, as well as their characteristics, effects, prices, etc. From the Bone Tempering Chapter to the Star Bridge Chapter, the prices gradually increased, becoming more and more outrageous.

For example, a one-star medicinal material suitable for true warriors and used to open the meridians actually costs fifty taels, which is still the lowest price. No wonder Li Gang rarely takes it with his wealth.

Of course, there is also the influence of martial arts.

Li Gang only practiced one-star internal strength. Even if he took one-star medicinal materials, his cultivation level would not improve much. He might as well save some money and expand his power.

Therefore, it is difficult to get along in the world. There is no good father. If you want to stand out on your own and become famous, you can only say that there is no chance of success. The chance is too small.

Zhuo Mufeng asked: "Why are there no star-rated medicinal materials in the Hexiang realm?"

The shopkeeper said proudly: "Those medicinal materials are expensive but not marketable. It doesn't matter. No matter how much money you spend, you can't buy them. In my Nixue Pavilion, only diamond-level members have the opportunity to buy them."

"What are the standards for reaching diamond level?"

"Simple, as long as you spend more than 10,000 taels of silver or be in the top ten of the Tianxing List, you will be qualified."

Zhuo Mufeng didn't want to talk, so he closed the booklet and said in a low voice: "Shopkeeper, take me to inspect the current goods."

This time it was the shopkeeper's turn to be embarrassed and whispered: "Young hero, our store has no stock at the moment."

"What did you say?"

"In a small county like this, no one buys star-rated medicinal materials for ten and a half days. Young Master also knows that maintaining star-rated medicinal materials is very labor-intensive, so customers usually make reservations, and then the superiors deliver the goods."

Zhuo Mufeng's face turned ugly: "How many days will it usually arrive?"

"Don't worry, we, Nixue Pavilion, have a long-term cooperative relationship with Shunfeng Escort Agency. The goods will arrive in ten days at most."

Zhuo Mufeng was so angry that he wanted to beat someone up. He didn't want to wait even a day for ten days. After ten days, who knows if something bad will happen in Red Sun City.

The shopkeeper said that since the young man couldn't wait any longer, he might as well go to Gusu City, where the goods were in stock.

Zhuo Mufeng said hehe, it would take ten days at the fastest to go to Gusu City, so he might as well wait.

He originally thought that with money, he would be able to get one-star medicinal materials immediately, and then his cultivation level would rise steadily, but he did not expect such a bad thing to happen. Zhuo Mufeng's good mood disappeared, and he was disappointed and irritated.

Do you have to wait here for ten days?

"Can it be delivered to your door?"

Thinking of the expectant looks in Shang Zirong's and the two elders' eyes, Zhuo Mufeng finally couldn't harden his heart and left them alone. If Nixue Pavilion was willing to send the things to Red Sun City, that would be good.

"Young hero, according to our rules, we are not responsible for delivery."

The shopkeeper's smile was really flattering.

After thinking about it, he decided to pay for it. He couldn't leave empty-handed. At worst, he could hire an escort agency.

After going in and out of the city gate dozens of times, Zhuo Mufeng only took part of the copper coins each time and deposited them in different banks. Plus the seven taels and three guans he had on him, after collecting enough twenty taels, he was respectfully presented by the shopkeeper and depressed.

Left Nixue Pavilion.

Zhuo Mufeng couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't know whether Li Gang would give him ten days.

Just as he was thinking about various coping strategies, he suddenly felt someone tapping his shoulder. Zhuo Mufeng raised his head and saw a young face with a smile.

"Haha, Brother Zhuo, it's really you."

The young man had a hearty smile. He was about two inches shorter than Zhuo Mufeng, but he was still above average in build. He was wearing silky yellow clothes, sparkling in the sun, not to mention very eye-catching.

Browsing through the memory of the original owner, Zhuo Mufeng also said excitedly: "It turns out to be Brother Bi Yuntao, long time no see."

This Bi Yuntao came from a good background. He was the son of the Liu Jian sect in Yueyang City. Although his father's martial arts was not as good as Li Gang's, he was considered to have a great family and was the number one figure in Yueyang City.

If you look at someone else's outfit and then look at yourself, you will know the gap between the two.

"Brother Zhuo, in the past you and I traveled around the world together, doing chivalry and justice. We finally met today, so we must have a good time. By the way, I also made an appointment with a few friends from the world to get to know each other. If we meet in the future, we can still

Look out for each other.”

Bi Yuntao was very enthusiastic and dragged Zhuo Mufeng away.

How could Zhuo Mufeng be in the mood to care about him? Being a chivalrous and righteous person was what the original owner did. However, he also knew that the original owner had a similar temperament to this person, and a rash refusal would only arouse suspicion, so he had no choice but to submit.

The two walked into a very grand restaurant, and someone immediately stood up to greet them.

Zhuo Mufeng took a look and saw that there were five young people, three men and two women, dressed in extraordinary clothes. They were probably young men and young ladies with dreams of being in the world.

The five of them were also sizing up Zhuo Mufeng. They saw that he was dusty, but his face was extremely handsome, and his messy hair gave him a sense of unruliness. The two women couldn't help but blush.

Bi Yuntao introduced both parties. When the five of them heard that it was Zhuo Mufeng, a true gentleman, their expressions changed slightly, and the smiles of the two women became even brighter.

The original owner's martial arts skills were among the best among the young people in nearby cities. He also had a noble character and an outstanding image, so he could easily become a man of the hour.

This is probably one of the few possessions of the original owner.

During the dinner, Zhuo Mufeng looked straight and polite, and his gentlemanly temperament was really admirable. The two women looked at him frequently, but this also aroused the jealousy of the other three men.

After the banquet was over, Zhuo Mufeng was about to leave when a young man named Shen Junhao stopped him and sneered: "I've heard for a long time that Brother Zhuo has superb swordsmanship and has few rivals in the nearby cities. I met him by chance today and I would like to ask for advice."

Bi Yuntao was the first to smile and said: "Brother Shen is serious. Your Taiyue swordsmanship was passed down from the Taishan sect. You have practiced it to a perfect level some time ago. When it comes to swordsmanship, among the younger generation nearby, who is your opponent?"

Zhuo Mufeng instantly heard that Bi Yuntao was blocking the sword for him. On the one hand, he hinted to himself about Shen Junhao's terrifying strength, and on the other hand, he politely rejected Shen Junhao.

This friend is quite loyal.

But Shen Junhao didn't buy it.

He considered himself to be a handsome young man, but Zhuo Mufeng stole all the limelight, especially since one of the two girls was still his favorite. He would not be able to sleep well tonight unless he got rid of his bad temper.

"Brother Bi's words are wrong. You can only know who is strong or weak by fighting each other. Besides, how do you know that Brother Zhuo's martial arts has not improved? Brother Zhuo, do you dare?"

At the end of the sentence, Shen Junhao suddenly shouted: "If you don't dare, please leave. Shen doesn't want to make friends with cowardly people."

The other two men looked on with cold eyes, expressions of disdain.

The two women wanted to dissuade him, but because of Shen Junhao's aura, they didn't even open their mouths. They just looked at Zhuo Mufeng worriedly.

Bi Yuntao wanted to say more, but was stopped by Zhuo Mufeng.

He had no intention of a jealous fight, but the other party's domineering attitude was really unpleasant. In addition, since he had not bought any star-rated medicinal materials, Zhuo Mufeng had the urge to vent his anger and said with a smile: "Since Brother Shen invited me, I respectfully It’s better to obey.”

"happy!"

Shen Junhao probably couldn't wait any longer. As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled out the sword placed on the window sill and stabbed Zhuo Mufeng with the sword. A cry of surprise suddenly sounded in the restaurant.
