Chapter 216

The Fifth Tyrant Knife, one of the top masters of the Fifth family, had already mastered the Wuying Knife to the stage of transformation, making him many times stronger than Fifth Wuying. At the same time, he was also a peerless master at the pinnacle of the Dao-seeking stage. The domineering reputation of the Fifth Tyrant Knife was well-known among many major forces because, in family battles, he had once faced three peak Dao-seeking masters alone and remained undefeated!

"It's coming soon," Xia Yuan said. "In the past, the boss opened the shop around this time."

As one of the earliest customers of Origin Mall, Xia Yuan had almost figured out the rules of the shop's opening times. The Fifth Tyrant Knife nodded and stopped talking. Both he and Fifth Wuying, being from the same family, were naturally reserved in their speech.

The third elder glanced around at the crowd, squinting as he asked, "Are you all here for the Qiongyelu?"

From what Wei Yi had told him, although the Qiongyelu at Origin Mall was refreshed every seven days, there was only one bottle available each time. With so many people here, distributing it could indeed be a problem.

"Yes," Ji Wuhui nodded.

"Those who are destined will get it," Ying Wuji said lightly.

"The little girl wants this Qiongyelu too!" Liu Rumei covered her mouth and smiled seductively, but everyone present remained unmoved.

The third elder squinted his eyes, a solemn look flashing in them. With more monks and less porridge, it seemed there would be a battle for a while. Although among these people, his cultivation base was the highest on the surface, it was only the cultivation base. A cultivator's combat effectiveness is not solely measured by their cultivation base.

For example, a computer with very good performance installed with a pirated junk system would perform worse than a cheap but highly optimized computer. Similarly, the third elder was an alchemist, and most of his strengths lay in refining pills. If he were to fight the Fifth Tyrant Knife, the result would be self-evident.

Creak!

The sound of the door opening echoed as the door of Origin Mall slowly opened. When Luochuan opened the store door as usual and saw the scene outside, he couldn't help but be taken aback. So many people? And it seems their strength is quite high. When did peak Dao-seeking cultivators become so common?

"Boss, I don't know if there's any Qiongyelu today?" Old Bai asked first.

"Yes," Luo Chuan nodded flatly, maintaining his indifferent expression—an essential quality of a qualified store owner. "The goods just arrived today."

"Great!" Bai Lao's eyes lit up with excitement.

At the same time, Luo Chuan also keenly noticed that when he answered, the bodies of three unfamiliar faces subconsciously tensed. Could it be that they also came for the Qiongyelu? Luo Chuan couldn't help but speculate. It seemed that the reputation of Origin Mall was gradually spreading!

Luo Chuan gazed at Wei Yi, Liu Ruyu, and Fifth Wuying with satisfaction. Yes, they were all becoming qualified customers of Origin Mall!

The three of them were taken aback. Why did it feel like the boss had just given them a strange look? No, it must be an illusion! The boss wouldn't do such a thing!

"Come into the shop," Luo Chuan said, stepping aside. "It's not officially open yet, but you can check it out first."

He directed this to the third elder, the Fifth Tyrant Knife, and Liu Rumei.
