Immortal Martial God

Chapter 28 Business disruption

"I really didn't expect that." Xiang Nan was filled with emotions as he held onto three top-grade pills. It turned out that his Lightning Meridian talent was so heaven-defying! No wonder Lightning Meridian martial artists were so rare from ancient times until now.

And this heaven-defying talent could also bring him such tremendous help in the path of pill refining!

In other words, according to his previous thoughts, if he used himself as a pill to refine his body, wouldn't the success rate be even higher?

"Since that's the case …" He put the three Stone Skin Pills into his storage ring and nodded. "The only ingredients I need for body refinement are the Thunderbolt Vines."

It seemed that his bold idea could be realized, and Xiang Nan immediately felt very happy.

However, where would he find something like the Thunderclap Vine?

This stunned Xiang Nan. He was not familiar with the abundant spiritual herbs within the Bluestone City.

"Right." He patted his forehead and said, "I can ask the City Lord. He is in charge of Blue Stone City."

Thinking of this, Xiang Nan immediately set off towards Bluestone City.

To enter the City Lord's Mansion, one had to cross a busy trade street called Welcome Street.

This was because merchants and martial artists traveling from south to north would sell their goods here, making this street a must for all families.

Back then, the Xiang Clan had four shops on this street, including two weapons shops, an armor shop, and a spirit herb shop.

"Right …" Xiang Nan walked down the street and thought to himself, "Grandpa and the others want to buy back a few shops. It seems that they are here. I wonder if they have succeeded."

Since I’m here, I'll go take a look.

After advancing for a while, Xiang Nan arrived at a spirit herb shop. This place used to belong to the Xiang Clan, but Xiang Nan looked inside from the door and saw a round table in the shop.

Sitting around the round table was the shopkeeper of the Spirit Herb Shop. On the other two sides were his father and two uncles.

Xiang Nan walked in and sat down beside his father. However, he saw that his father's expression was extremely ugly. It seemed that the conversation was not going very smoothly.

"Aren't you asking a sky-high price!" Xiang Shaohua's face turned ashen as he angrily said to the shopkeeper, "Back then, we only sold this shop to you for 70,000 gold coins, but now you're asking for 500,000 gold coins!"

The shopkeeper's expression did not change. He glanced at Xiang Shaohua indifferently, "Today is different from the past. The new city district is about to open. This Welcome Street is also inch by inch. As the water rises, the boat will naturally be much more expensive than before."

"Furthermore, if it weren't for the City Lord helping your Xiang Clan, I wouldn't even have sold it to you."

"Shao Hua, what do you think we should do?" One of Xiang Nan's uncles turned to look at Xiang Shaohua.

Xiang Shaohua struggled in his heart for a long time before he let out a sigh and said, "500,000 yuan is 500,000 yuan. I want this shop."

"Since that's the case" The shopkeeper revealed a smile. Just as he spoke, he was interrupted by a very ear-piercing voice.

"Wait!" Two people suddenly appeared in front of the shop. They were Wang Rongsheng of the Wang Clan and a woman around the age of eighteen or nineteen.

When Xiang Nan saw the Wang Clan appear, he immediately frowned. He knew that the Wang Clan had indeed come looking for trouble again.

Wang Rongsheng strode into the shop and sat down directly opposite the shopkeeper. He smiled and said, "Our Wang Clan has offered 550,000 yuan to buy this shop."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately waved his hand at Xiang Shaohua and said, "Sorry, someone is bidding higher than you."

Xiang Shaohua glared at Wang Rongsheng and said, "Our Xiang Clan asked the City Lord for help, so the shopkeeper was willing to sell this shop! Otherwise, the shopkeeper wouldn't sell it at all."

Wang Rongsheng didn't care at all. He said, "Of course, the highest bidder will get the goods. Our Wang Clan is bidding higher than yours. This shop will naturally belong to our Wang Clan."

The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, "Brother Wang is right."

When Xiang Shaohua heard this, he could only ruthlessly say, "Then our Xiang Clan will pay 570,000 yuan!"

"Too stingy." Wang Rongsheng mockingly said, "Our Wang Clan will pay 600,000 yuan."

"You" Xiang Shaohua pointed at Wang Rongsheng, speechless.

"What happened to me?" Wang Rongsheng crossed his legs and sneered, "I can tell you that none of the four shops of your Xiang Clan will be taken back!"

At this moment, a group of people arrived at the entrance, but they were the three elders of the Xiang Clan.

Xiang Shaohua hurriedly stood up and said, "Big Uncle, Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle, how are things over there?"

The faces of the three elders were extremely ugly. It was obvious that they were angry. The Great Elder gritted his teeth and said, "The other three shops were messed up by the Wang Clan's Li Clan and the Mo Clan. We were unable to take them down."

Hearing this, Xiang Shaohua sat down and his heart went cold.

Wang Li Mo and the other three families worked together to deal with the Xiang Family. Even if Xiang Shaohua was willing to spend more money to buy it, how could he withstand the financial resources of the three families?

Xiang Nan had been sitting on the side and listening. When things got to this point, Xiang Nan's heart was filled with anger.

"Father." Xiang Nan stood up and whispered, "It's better for us to go back and discuss the matter of buying a shop before making a decision."

Xiang Nan was very clear in his heart that this matter had already reached a dead end. He had to rely on the help of outsiders to coordinate it. Perhaps he could talk to the City Lord.

Xiang Shaohua was helpless and could only sigh as he walked out of the shop.

"You … are Xiang Nan?" At this time, the Wang family in the shop followed. The woman who had always been standing beside Wang Rongsheng asked.

Xiang Nan turned around to look at her and saw that she was eighteen or nineteen years old and pretty. What was even more rare was that she had reached the eighth level of the Xiantian realm!

"I've heard of you." The woman smiled faintly and extended her right hand to Xiang Nan. "I heard that you shouldered the heavy burden of the Xiang Clan by yourself. I admire your character very much," she said.

"My name is Wang Jingyun. We will meet in the city selection in a month. I hope you can perform better then."

Xiang Nan hesitated for a moment, but he still held Wang Jingyun's hand together. This Wang Jingyun was not as arrogant and domineering as Wang Jinghai, so it seemed to be easy to accept.

At this moment, a muffled bang suddenly came from the side, followed by a miserable scream.

A figure suddenly flew backwards from outside and landed at Xiang Nan's feet.

Xiang Nan stared intently at the man lying under his feet who was seriously injured and vomiting blood. He was actually the grandson of the First Elder, Xiang Zhonghua!

"Zhong Hua!" The Great Elder was shocked and hurriedly wanted to help Xiang Zhonghua.

Xiang Nan pulled Xiang Zhonghua up and frowned, "Cousin, how are you?"

Before Xiang Nan could finish his words, a ray of early weather suddenly shot towards him from the crack in the crowd. The target of the early weather was Xiang Zhonghua!

Xiang Nan was instantly enraged. Who rewarded Xiang Zhonghua? That person was unexpectedly unforgiving, and he was actually still chasing after them!

At this critical moment, Xiang Nan raised his hand and slapped the weather away!

Suddenly, a cold breath sounded from the crowd.

That was the first day! He was actually sent flying by Xiang Nan's slap?

Xiang Nan looked in the direction of the weather and saw Wang Jinghai!

"You" Wang Jinghai was still smiling sinisterly, but his face was already pale. He pointed at Xiang Nan and said, "When did you reach the third level of the Xiantian realm?"

"Wang! Jing! Hai!" Xiang Nan gritted his teeth and raised his hand.

This weather was not a joke. When Xiang Nan was at Xiantian 1st layer, he could easily defeat Wang Jinghai. Now, Xiang Nan was already a Xiantian 3rd layer martial artist.

Wang Jinghai could definitely break a few of his ribs in this weather.
