"Expensive Appetite"

Although the store's hall was a mess, it was quickly cleaned up by the work of several individuals.

All the different treasure chests were placed on the shelf one by one, just as before.

Ye Xuan sat on his stool with his usual smile on his face.

"Thank you to the three of you," Ye Xuan expressed with a grateful smile.

Ning Fengzhi waved his hands quickly and said with a smile, "You're welcome; these are just minor tasks."

After saying that, Ning Fengzhi glanced at Qian Daoliu. He was surprised that this elder was still alive. What surprised him even more was that this man had reached a power level of 100 in his soul power without anyone knowing.

Even if the Glazed Sect wanted to join the Spirit Hall now, it might be too late.

"Shop owner, I'd like to ask if there's any way to confront a god with a power level of 100 in soul power," Ning Fengzhi asked, while Qian Daoliu narrowed his eyes and shot a murderous look at him.

Even though Qian Daoliu didn't understand why he couldn't use his power within this store, it didn't mean he wasn't powerful.

The Glazed Sect has always resisted the Spirit Hall. After we leave here, we must eliminate the Glazed Sect first.

Faced with Qian Daoliu's fierce gaze, Ning Fengzhi immediately felt frightened.

If he hadn't witnessed Ye Xuan's incredible methods, Ning Fengzhi would have apologized to Qian Daoliu even if it meant giving up his pride.

But at that moment, he had another option.

Although the strength of Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo had increased considerably, they could still feel the overwhelming pressure from Qian Daoliu.

"There are many ways. Sword Douluo's soul power has already reached level ninety-eight and only needs to reach level one hundred. Or you can use special accessories, some of which can even defeat gods with divine status. And don't call Qian Daoliu a godless man. Everything you need can be found in these treasure chests. If you're lucky, you might even make someone a god," Ye Xuan explained.

As for the battle between the Glazed Sect and the Spirit Hall, Ye Xuan eagerly awaited the outcome. After all, it was only through their constant struggle that his black shop could make a lot of money and prosper.

That's for opening more treasure chests.

Ning Fengzhi had no objections to opening the treasure chests. As long as it generated enough profit, he could gather the money to open more treasure chests and even sell the sect's assets.

"Agreed. With the merchant's words, I have confidence in my heart. When we return this time, we will sell all the assets that can be sold, and we must develop special accessories," Ning Fengzhi stated with determination.

Money is an external resource to the body. As long as the sect remains intact and the spiritual energy of the Glazed Tile Pagoda of the Seven Treasures continues to flow, they can maintain a steady income stream.

Ning Fengzhi and the other three sat in silence for a moment before bidding farewell and departing.

When Ye Xuan returned to the store after seeing off Ning Fengzhi and the others, he found Qian Daoliu sitting on a stool as if he were an employee, which infuriated him.

"Oh, it seems you have a debt to me so large that you've become an employee of the store and made it clear. Qian Daoliu, before you pay off your debt, your main tasks are cleaning, attracting customers, and maintaining order in the establishment. There are toilets and towels in the back. Start by cleaning the tables and benches of this store," Ye Xuan stated firmly.

Qian Daoliu's face darkened, feeling as if he had been reduced to a mere servant.

Under Ye Xuan's cold gaze, Qian Daoliu had no choice but to suppress his anger and head to the backyard.

Ye Xuan smiled maliciously, thinking that if Qian Daoliu dared to cause trouble in his store, he would regret his decision.

While sitting on his stool, Ye Xuan opened the black store that belonged to him and began searching for items inside it.

A level two spiritual energy boost capsule (useful for levels below 80) was sold for 300 exchange points. Qian Daoliu's 120 million spiritual gold coins had not yet arrived, and the exchange points had not been transferred either. If they had been, Ye Xuan's spiritual power would have increased significantly.

With 1,150 exchange points remaining, Ye Xuan acquired three spiritual energy boost capsules.

After ingesting one of the capsules, he felt a constant flow of spiritual energy invading his body. His spiritual power continued to increase until it exceeded a certain limit, achieving a significant breakthrough.

Before noon, Ye Xuan's spiritual power level had risen from level 11 to level 17.

Indeed, the use of spiritual energy boost capsules was a fast and effective way to strengthen spiritual power. It didn't have to be a difficult task, and there were no worries about it. As long as he had enough exchange points, Ye Xuan could raise his spiritual power to level 100 in a matter of days.

If only there were more opportunities to enhance my cultivation rapidly.

"I've told you, there hasn't been a single customer all morning. Why don't you go out to the door and shout a couple of times? You just sit there doing nothing, and even if there are people who want to come, they feel intimidated by you. I'll charge you a compensation," Ye Xuan whispered quietly.

Qian Daoliu was assigned to clean the store, although, of course, it was already quite messy, but he chose to remain seated on his stool. Throughout the morning, there were people who attempted to enter the store, but Qian Daoliu's intimidating presence frightened them away. Ye Xuan wasn't at the counter as he was sitting in the backyard practicing.

Upon hearing Ye Xuan's words, Qian Daoliu didn't take it seriously at all. He had already contacted the people from the Wuhun Palace and knew they would deliver 200 million soul gold coins in three days. If he could get away from this place, he swore never to return, not even to the city of Tiandou.

"Why don't you check the location of your store? It's quite isolated here. Almost no one passes by the door all day, let alone anyone who wants to come in and buy things. Besides, your products are quite expensive." "It's common for no one to come, how can you blame me?" Qian Daoliu responded indifferently.

Ye Xuan stretched, and, inadvertently, felt a little discomfort in his lower back after sitting all morning.

"In the future, when you practice, make sure to do it lying on the bed; that will be more comfortable."

I left the store and looked around. In reality, there weren't many people walking in this remote alley. Everyone was dressed in plain clothes, suggesting that they didn't have much money.

I glanced at the sun and noticed it was almost noon.

"What would you like for lunch?" Ye Xuan asked.

Qian Daoliu was surprised by Ye Xuan's question. He didn't expect him to still care for him since he had decided not to eat or drink for three days.

"Some home-cooked dishes will be enough," Qian Daoliu replied.

Ye Xuan nodded and left immediately.

It didn't take long before several waiters followed Ye Xuan to the dimly lit restaurant with trays of food.

Soon, delicious dishes were placed on the table, whetting everyone's appetite.

After the waiters left, Ye Xuan asked Qian Daoliu to sit.

"This meal will cost a hundred thousand soul gold coins. I'll make a note of it first."

Ye Xuan's statement completely dispelled Qian Daoliu's appetite.
