Chapter 634: Chapter 634: Warning Chapter 634: Chapter 634: Warning âSixty thousand gold coins! Could it really be true? Have we all been deceived?â
âMaster Wang, the Alchemist, actually only paid us thirty thousand gold coins! And heâs a Fourth Rank Alchemist!â
âAnd for the other herbs, itâs possible we were deceived, too.â
In the tavern, the crowd buzzed with discussion, all coming to realize they had been duped by Master Wang.
However, no one dared to stand up, after all, the selling had been voluntary; they simply hadnât known the correct prices.
Apart from Master Wang, it was feared that other Alchemists and Artifact Refiners may also have been deceitful.
Master Wangâs face was extremely gloomy, his vicious old eyes fixed on Feng Wuchen.
Feng Wuchenâs words had undoubtedly caused the crowd to lose trust in Master Wang, whose image had plummeted in their eyes.
âUtter nonsense! You claim the Celestial Orchid Fragrant Leaf is priced at sixty thousand just because you say so? As a Fourth Rank Alchemist, what herbs do I not know the price of? How dare you spread such nonsense here?â Master Wang barked angrily.
âMaster Wang has a point, what if this kid is spouting nonsense?â
âIndeed, Master Wang is a Fourth Rank Alchemist no matter what, and this youngster, even if he is an Alchemist, doesnât have a realm as strong as Master Wang.â
âWeâve sold so many herbs, and only the Celestial Orchid Fragrant Leaf was the most expensive, with others merely a thousand or two gold coins; itâs unlikely that Master Wang would deceive us.â
Hearing Master Wangâs words, the tavern crowd also felt it made sense and began to suspect Feng Wuchen of speaking nonsense.
They saw Master Wang nearly every day, but it was their first time seeing Feng Wuchen; how could they believe a stranger? What if Feng Wuchen had some ulterior motive?
Upon hearing the crowd in the tavern, Master Wang couldnât help but breathe a sigh of relief.
However, Master Wang had already decided to teach Feng Wuchen a good lesson to vent his anger.
âEven so, just pretend I never said anything, Master Wang, thereâs no need to get angry; these herbs really arenât what Iâm looking for,â Feng Wuchen said with a light smile, showing no change in his expression.
âYou brat, coming here and spewing nonsense, saying the Celestial Orchid Fragrant Leaf can be sold for sixty thousand gold coins, nearly tarnishing my reputation as a swindler and damaging my good name. If I donât teach you a lesson today, others might think I, a Fourth Rank Alchemist, am easy to bully!â Master Wang coldly stated.
Upon hearing this, Feng Wuchen responded with a light smile, âMaster Wang, this is just a misunderstanding. A mere few tens of thousands of gold coins indeed mean nothing to me, and as for the price of the Celestial Orchid Fragrant Leaf, I do know itâs indeed sixty thousand gold coins, perhaps itâs cheaper here for you.â
âA misunderstanding? I think you have other schemes in mind! You are not from Yunfeng City, and as soon as you arrived, you raised the price of the herbs; what is your intention? I must see what rank of Alchemist you are, daring to be so presumptuous!â Master Wang angrily roared, hastily pinning an unfounded charge on Feng Wuchen.
Feng Wuchen inwardly sighed in frustration, he just wanted to buy some herbs, yet he ended up in trouble.
Master Wang suddenly stirred his Soul Power and stepped forward aggressively, aiming to inflict serious harm on Feng Wuchen as a lesson.
âSo reckless!â Liu Qingyang shook his head slightly.
âThis old fool is really courting death,â Yi Tianqing also shook his head.
âBang!â
Master Wangâs palm struck Feng Wuchen. He expected a thud to signal serious injury, but when his palm landed, Master Wang felt as though it sank into the deep sea.
âWhatâŠâ Master Wang was dumbfounded, his Soul Power as a Fourth Rank Alchemist unable to shake Feng Wuchen in the slightest.
âIncredible, he actually blocked Master Wangâs Soul Power!â
âCould this kid also be a Fourth Rank Alchemist?â
âItâs hard to say, so young and already at the Heavenly Human Realm, he might well be a Fourth Rank Alchemist!â
In the tavern, everyone was shocked, nobody had expected Feng Wuchen to be able to withstand the soul power of Master Wang, the alchemist.
âMaster Wang, I just wanted to buy some necessary herbs, why did you have to take action? To butt heads with a junior like me, isnât that a bit too narrow-minded?â Feng Wuchen spoke indifferently, his voice growing slightly colder.
âHmph! You know Iâm your senior, yet you dare to be so insolent? You clearly donât see me, a Fourth Rank Alchemist, as worthy of respect!â Having come to his senses, Master Wang shouted angrily.
âLetâs call it even with this palm strike,â Feng Wuchen said indifferently, not wanting to waste more time.
As Feng Wuchen turned to leave, he added, âMaster Wang, if you persist in this obstinance, donât blame me for being impolite!â
With those words from Feng Wuchen, the tavern erupted into an uproar.
âIs this kid too arrogant? He even dares to threaten Master Wang, the alchemist!â
âHe doesnât take Master Wang seriously at all. Even if heâs a genius from a powerful faction, if he offends Master Wang, heâs bound to stir up major trouble, right? Our Yunfeng City even has Sixth Grade Alchemists!â
âYoung and impetuous, too reckless.â
The cultivators in the tavern were all discussing the matter, everyone thought Feng Wuchen was too presumptuous.
âBrat, youâre sick of living!â Master Wangâs old face instantly shifted from gloomy to ferocious, as a surge of murderous intent burst forth from his body.
Feng Wuchenâs words had completely enraged Master Wang.
Master Wangâs earlier palm strike had not managed to shake Feng Wuchen in the slightest, which had already caused him a great deal of embarrassment and rage.
Now with Feng Wuchenâs arrogant demeanor, how could Master Wang tolerate it?
âHumph!â Sensing Master Wangâs murderous intent, Feng Wuchen suddenly turned his head and let out a cold snort, his eyes were extremely fierce.
An overwhelming and domineering soul power surged out wildly.
âThis is bad!â Master Wangâs old face changed drastically, the domineering soul power from Feng Wuchen scared him to the core.
âPfft!â
The domineering soul power arrived in an instant. Master Wang had no time to activate his soul power and then spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, staggering back several steps.
The tavern went completely silent in an instant. Everyoneâs eyes widened in terror as they watched Master Wang, who was injured.
The people couldnât sense any energy fluctuations, but with just a cold snort from Feng Wuchen, Master Wang had been heavily injured; they could all guess that Feng Wuchenâs alchemy realm surpassed that of Master Wang!
Master Wang looked at Feng Wuchen with a face full of fright, he simply couldnât believe that Feng Wuchen possessed such a terrifyingly domineering soul power!
âWhat⊠what realm of soul power is this? Why canât I perceive his alchemy realm?â Master Wang thought fearfully.
âMaster Wang, donât push your luck. If you want to teach me a lesson, youâre not up to the task yet. This is a warning,â Feng Wuchen said coldly, his icy words sending chills down oneâs spine.
With that, Feng Wuchen turned and went up to the second floor as if nothing had happened.
For a moment, in the tavern, everyoneâs gaze towards Feng Wuchen was filled with dread and caution.
Master Wang was completely stunned; as a Fourth Rank Alchemist, he had been warned by a junior!
In Yunfeng City, who didnât recognize the prestige of Master Wang, the alchemist? Who dared to offend him? Didnât everyone treat him with the utmost respect and courtesy?
Master Wangâs old face was both pale and ferocious!
âBrat! I donât care who you are! You will not leave Yunfeng City today!â Master Wang growled through clenched teeth, his old face extremely unsightly.
