"Thank you, Senior, for showing mercy!"
Watching the silver moon vanish, Elder Bai wiped the cold sweat from his forehead in midair and solemnly cupped his hands toward Luo Chuan.
Luo Chuan merely nodded at him.
Although he had not even left the shop during the earlier battle, he had sensed that the city-protecting grand formation had been activated by this old man.
From that, it was clear that this old man held no low status in Jiuyao City and was very likely connected to the imperial family.
Since his shop was located in Jiuyao City, he ought to be a little more accommodating toward members of the imperial family.
Then Luo Chuan ignored Elder Bai and lay back down in the reclining chair at the entrance.
Oh, right. Chu Yunfei had already been reduced to ashes when the silver moon fell earlier. After all, the terrifying energy fluctuations were not something a mere Divine Soul Realm cultivator like him could withstand.
Luo Chuan's attitude, however, left Elder Bai in a dilemma.
After pondering it over and over, Elder Bai finally gritted his teeth and came to Luo Chuan's shop.
Seeing such an expert open a shop in a sparsely populated alley of Jiuyao City, Elder Bai felt not only flattered beyond measure, but also a deep lingering fear.
With an existence like this as the owner, if those spoiled young descendants of officials in the city came here to cause trouble...
Hiss, he did not dare think any further!
But then again, this expert had opened a shop in Jiuyao City, yet the imperial family had received no news whatsoever. That was truly strange.
"Origin Mall... Origin... What grand ambition!"
Looking at the plaque above the entrance, Elder Bai's eyes were filled with reverence as he looked at Luo Chuan.
This was the benefit brought by strength.
If an ordinary person opened a shop with such a name, it would only mean they had an enormous mouth!
"Senior."
Elder Bai spoke respectfully to Luo Chuan.
Luo Chuan waved a hand from the reclining chair and said indifferently, "I'm no Senior. My name is Luo Chuan. Just call me Boss."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Elder Bai hurriedly replied.
He also knew that these reclusive experts were mostly eccentric. Someone like Luo Chuan, who acted as a shop owner, was simply rare.
"I am an Attendant of the imperial family, Bai Hong. Is there anything Boss needs me to do?"
After choosing his words carefully, Elder Bai spoke somewhat cautiously.
An Attendant?
Luo Chuan gave Elder Bai a curious once-over.
Hmm, Eighth Stage of Seeking the Way. His strength was passable...
Now, experts of the Seeking the Way Realm could only be considered passable in Luo Chuan's eyes. Who knew how Elder Bai would feel if he learned that?
"No." Luo Chuan waved his hand and answered casually.
After saying that, Luo Chuan ignored him again, though he was sparring with the system in his mind.
Luo Chuan: "System, would it work if I had this guy advertise my shop in Jiuyao City?"
System: "No! Host, you must believe in yourself. Relying on your own strength, you will definitely be able to complete the mission!"
Luo Chuan: ...
Seeing that Luo Chuan was no longer paying attention to him, Elder Bai turned his gaze toward the shop.
He was immensely curious about a shop opened by such an expert.
When he saw that the shop was filled entirely with glass, intense shock immediately appeared in Elder Bai's eyes.
But when he recalled Luo Chuan's strength, he quickly accepted it.
To an existence like this, a little glass probably amounted to nothing at all.
After thinking for a moment, Elder Bai carefully asked Luo Chuan, "Boss, may I enter the shop and take a look?"
Luo Chuan, who had been conversing with the system in his mind, came back to himself and nodded. "All who come are guests."
And Luo Chuan had figured something out as well.
Although he could not directly ask Elder Bai to advertise for his shop, once Elder Bai learned of the effects of the goods within, he would naturally spread the word for them!
