Chapter 31. Going Down The Mountain to Buy

Compared to Qi Qingyao.

 Jiang Huanyue seemed to be more confused. After all, whether it was cultivation or access to resources, Jiang Huanyue was inferior to Qi Qingyao.

 Moreover, Jiang Huanyue was highly talented. Yun Tianxiao had been watching her cultivate her ears since she started cultivating.

 Not to mention Li Yang's body that was blocked due to his lack of cultivation experience. Jiang Huanyue had been performing the Qi circulation with the highest standards in the Nine Planet Sect.

 The two of them stood in the shop and thought hard for a while, but they still couldn't come up with a good idea.

 "Senior sisters, there's no need to worry.

 I know my situation. At most, I will cultivate more in the future. If I work hard, I will be able to integrate it. It will just take some time."

 Seeing the two of them like this, Li Yang said with a smile.

 "Junior Brother, don't worry. Let's go back to the mountain and search the hidden Pavilion or ask the elders who know about this. There will always be a way."

 "That's right, Junior Brother; just wait for our good news."

 Qi Qingyao and Jiang Huanyue looked at each other but didn't give up. They went up to comfort Li Yang and left in a hurry.

 After the two of them left.

 Li Yang put away the seal the heavens technique and reopened the shop. He found two disciples to help him rebuild the straw shed and then continued to cook.

 ...

 The next day.

 Li Yang, who had been busy for a long time last night, woke up very early today.

 After two days of spreading the news, more and more disciples came to eat. Li Yang thought he had prepared enough ingredients, but he didn't expect it would take two days.

And he had already used up close to 99% of his energy.

 Therefore, to avoid affecting the shop's regular opening today, Li Yang decided not to open the shop. Instead, he counted the remaining ingredients.

 Then, he left and walked towards the Divine Sword Peak.

 Although Li Yang was now a direct disciple of Tianying Peak, firstly, the news had not yet spread, and secondly, if it were anyone else, they would not know what ingredients Li Yang needed.

 Hence, Li Yang could only look for the person who had purchased the goods.

 The disciple's name was Song Qian, he was in charge of the Divine Sword Peak and the other two outer sect peaks. He was also in charge of going down the mountain to buy things.

 Li Yang also knew Song Qian while working at the Divine Sword Peak's cafeteria.

 After all, although the Nine Planet Sect occupied a large area, they and the inner sects all belonged to the various elders. The elders naturally could not lower their status to plant ordinary crops on the Peak.

 Although there was enough space in the outer sect, many disciples had to divide the area for cultivation.

 Therefore, the resources needed by the Nine Planet Sect's outer sect would usually be purchased in significant quantities by people like Song Qian according to the agreed time.

 After arriving at the Divine Sword, Li Yang headed straight for Song Qian's residence. After knocking on the door twice, Li Yang's passionate voice could be heard.

"Coming, which Senior Brother is it? Li Yang? What are you doing here?"

 However, when he saw that the person outside was Li Yang, Song Qian's warm smile immediately froze before returning to normal.

 Compared to the other outer sect disciples, Li Yang, who was still an 'in-name disciple' in Song Qian's eyes, was not worthy of Song Qian's hypocritical greetings.

 However, Li Yang didn't care about Song Qian's attitude. He said indifferently, "Senior Brother Song, do you remember that I ordered a batch of ingredients and other goods from you three days ago?"

"Remember? Junior Brother, I told you that even our Divine Sword Peak's dining hall doesn't need so many ingredients. What's wrong? Did you need to return it if you couldn't use it?

 You're just opening your shop ..."

 Upon hearing Li Yang's words, Song Qian thought Li Yang wanted to return the goods and hurriedly tried to evade responsibility.

 "Don't worry, Senior Brother. I'm not here to return the goods.

 On the contrary, I need Senior Brother to make another trip and help me buy more food and goods. The types and quantities are similar to the last time.

 Li Yang shook his head, but his words left Song Qian dumbfounded.

 "Junior Brother, are you making fun of me? With so many ingredients, even our Peak's canteen would need at least a month to finish them.

 I remember you have a shop at the foot of the mountain. How can you consume the ingredients so quickly?"

 Song Qian couldn't believe what he had just heard. He raised his hand subconsciously and dug his ears. Then, he looked at Li Yang.

 "To tell you the truth, Junior brother's little store business is better, so we used it quickly.

 Now, not many ingredients are left from the last time, so I can only ask Senior Brother to continue buying on my behalf."

 Li Yang casually explained without any intention of exaggerating.

 However, even such a simple statement caused Song Qian to sneer.

 "That's good. The business has gotten better.

 Is this person treating me as a form of entertainment? I purchase supplies from the mountain every month, and I've always used the full amount for more than a month.

 Why is it that when it comes to you, you can eat it clean in three days?

 Did the entire outer sect go to your place to eat?"

 As a not-so-accurate 'businessman,' Song Qian did not voice his doubts even though he was filled with contempt.

He was surprised that Li Yang used it so quickly but still felt that Li Yang had always paid spirit coins for every order and had never delayed payment.

 It didn't matter if Li Yang's business was really good or if he had money he didn't have anywhere to spend.

 It had nothing to do with Song Qian.

 At the thought of this, Song Qian raised his head and looked at Li Yang. "Junior Brother, I've accepted a job on the mountain, so I can't reject you when you come to me to place an order."

 But you should also know that the days we come up the mountain to buy goods are fixed. It's not yet the day to go down the mountain to purchase goods.

 Senior brother still has some matters to attend to today, so I don't have the time to go down the mountain."

 How about this? I'll give Junior Brother a letter, and you can take it to Jialan City, two hundred miles away. The Chamber of Commerce has been cooperating with our Nine Planet Sect for a long time. You need to show them the letter.

 The rest of the Jialan City's Chamber of Commerce will help you collect the funds."

 "In that case, I'll have to trouble Senior Brother."

 Li Yang nodded in agreement.

 Song Qian turned around and walked into the house. After a while, he returned with a letter that had been sealed and handed it to Li Yang.

 "Since that's the case, I won't bother senior brother anymore."

 "Senior brother, if you have time in the future, you can visit my little store, but you have to come early."

 After keeping the letter, Li Yang didn't stay any longer. He turned around and walked down the mountain.

'Tsk, why are you acting all high and mighty? Do you think that your business is better than the outer cafeteria? 

Go earlier? Don't be embarrassed to see me when I come in the future.'

 As he watched Li Yang leave, Song Qian shook his head and closed the door.
