Who Gave You the Confidence?

"Silver Moon Manor? What imposing might indeed!"

At last, a faint ripple appeared on Luo Chuan's usually placid face, and a trace of chill surfaced in his eyes.

How could he fail to see that Chu Yangping wanted nothing less than to put him to death, without the slightest concern for Jiuyao City's safety?

"By Origin Mall's Rules, those who attack this shop shall die!"

His voice was not loud, yet it rang through the entirety of Jiuyao City.

Countless people heard it, their faces wearing expressions of confusion or curiosity.

They simply could not imagine that, beneath the pressure of the Divine Soul Projection in the sky, someone still dared to say such a thing.

But thinking about it from another angle, it was not difficult to guess that the speaker was the projection's enemy!

Marquis of Zhennan's Mansion.

Under Chu Yangping's Divine Soul Projection, the entire Jiuyao City was shrouded in its pressure, and this place was naturally no exception.

Everyone in the Marquis of Zhennan's Mansion watched the Divine Soul Projection on the distant horizon with solemn expressions, not daring to make the slightest move.

"That voice? Is it the boss's?!"

Yet when that voice rang out, a look of shock could not help appearing on Bu Lige's face.

"It is indeed." Bu Shiyi nodded lightly, profound astonishment flashing through her eyes.

No matter what, she could not imagine that the mysterious boss had actually provoked such a terrifying expert of the Seeking the Way Realm.

Judging from the aura emanating from this projection, even Emperor Tianxing, Ji Wuhui, might well have been inferior.

"I hope the boss is all right. Otherwise, where am I supposed to buy Spicy Strips and Cola?" Bu Lige prayed.

Bu Shiyi: ...

An inn in the eastern part of the city.

After returning from the Jiuyao Mountain Range, Wei Qingzhu and the other two had been recuperating here.

The materials from the Purple Crystal Demon Wolf were worth a great deal, earning them a large sum of Spirit Crystals.

"This voice... why does it sound like the shop's boss?"

Wei Qingzhu and the others had naturally also been affected by the overwhelming pressure. When they heard the voice by their ears, their expressions could not help changing.

"The shop's boss? The place where you buy Spicy Strips and Cola, Sister Qingzhu?" Song Qiuying asked curiously.

After drinking the Cola, her injuries had healed completely in just a few breaths, so she had become very interested in Luo Chuan, who sold it.

Wei Qingzhu nodded.

"A boss capable of selling such things surely cannot be an ordinary person. Could he be a hidden expert?" Lin Wanshuang pondered. "If we have time, Sister Qingzhu, take us to the shop you mentioned."

"No problem." Without giving it much thought, Wei Qingzhu agreed.

Because they trusted Jiuyao City's city-protecting formation, they were not overly worried.

Legend had it that several hundred years ago, a demon beast at the half-step Venerable level had emerged from the Jiuyao Mountain Range, with Jiuyao City naturally bearing the brunt of it.

Yet even a demon beast at the half-step Venerable level had been unable to breach Jiuyao City's city-protecting formation.

Though the pressure of this Divine Soul Projection was terrifying, it could not possibly compare to a half-step Venerable.

Elsewhere, upon hearing Luo Chuan's words, Chu Yangping merely sneered. "What shameless boasting!"

Under an attack of this caliber, he believed that even experts at the seventh or eighth rank of the Seeking the Way Realm would surely be reduced to ashes!

And this young shopkeeper before him did not even look to be twenty years old. How strong could he possibly be?

"Who exactly gave you the confidence?"

A faint, ghostly sigh rang out.

For some reason, a sense of foreboding suddenly arose in Chu Yangping's heart.

But he immediately cast this minor interruption to the back of his mind.

Trusting in his own technique, he did not believe this insignificant shopkeeper had any way to turn the tables.

At this moment, hundreds of beams of light had already reached the sky above the little shop.
