"Is he the only author in this world?" The middle-aged man watched Ma Feifei disappear and said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, the young man nodded slightly and replied, "Yes, I have ruled this world for 30,000 years and have never encountered such a situation. Moreover, it is said that when the founder wrote this book, he did not write a single word about the author. Logically speaking, there should be no author in this world."

At this point, the young man turned to look in the direction of the Zhenbei Mysterious Bookstore, and continued with a puzzled expression, "Moreover, according to my investigation, this author is extremely powerful, capable of writing books of Legendary-grade quality, and even supplying these books to the natives of this continent through Bookstore. It's truly perplexing."

"This world seems to be only of Yellow Quality, isn't it?" the middle-aged man said casually.

"Yes, he probably doesn't have any Life Spirit Crystal, otherwise the books in his Bookstore alone would be enough to create a universe," the young man said with a sigh, looking in the direction of the Mysterious Bookstore.

"How strong is he?" the middle-aged man asked in a deep voice.

The young man glanced at the middle-aged man and asked in a low voice, "Uncle-Master, are you going to fight him here?"

"The author ranking competition in Yong'an Prefecture is about to begin. Do you understand your situation, Uncle?"

"Moreover, you went to the trouble of sacrificing two Book Spirit Stones to bring your master to this world, isn't that your intention as well?" The middle-aged man looked at the young man, his good nephew, Zhang Ke, a first-grade author, and said meaningfully.

Zhang Ke chuckled, cupped his hands in greeting to the middle-aged man, and said with a smile, "Uncle-Master understands me best. The opponent's strength isn't particularly high, probably around the early stage of the Spirit Saint realm. However, the people beside him have already reached the Peak of the Ninth Stage of Spirit Saint, and there seems to be Half-Immortal among them."

"Since we haven't broken through the laws of this world, then we have nothing to fear." The middle-aged man revealed a smile. Although their cultivation was restricted after entering this world, they were all at the First-grade Immortal realm, making it extremely easy for them to crush this group of natives at the Peak of the Ninth Stage of Spirit Saint realm.

Zhang Ke hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "I will follow your instructions, Uncle-Master."

Ma Feifei was naturally unaware that someone had their eyes on him, and that this person was from outer space.

Ma Feifei is currently having a terrible headache. Why? Because he has explained things clearly to Azi. His only goal is for Azi to do Mysterious Bookstore a favor and act as a Book-holding woman. As for anything romantic between them, Ma Feifei has no intention of doing so.

Then Azi became very sad, her eyes red, making Ma Feifei almost want to agree immediately.

But seeing Yun Qingyang sitting on the roof playing with the Qingshuang Sword, he finally gave up on the idea.

"I'm so sorry, Miss Azi." Ma Feifei rubbed his hands, unsure of what to say, looking quite embarrassed.

Azi wiped her eyes, forced a smile, and said, "It's alright, shopkeeper. Azi just misunderstood and caused you a lot of trouble."

"No, no, it's no trouble at all," Ma Feifei quickly waved his hand. Actually, he didn't care about the rumors circulating outside; he knew perfectly well whether they were true or not. In fact, hearing such news actually made Ma Feifei a little smug, since it proved that he still had admirers, didn't it?

So, if anyone says the owner of the Mysterious Bookstore is destined to live a lonely life, we can use this to thoroughly refute them, right?

"Don't worry, shopkeeper, there's no need to comfort Azi. Azi will clarify this matter in a moment and won't let your reputation be damaged. Also, Azi 'll take on that Book-holding woman task." Azi said crisply, with a smile on her face. If it weren't for the redness in her eyes, Ma Feifei would have really thought that nothing had happened to her.

"Um, is there anything you want? I can't let you help me for nothing, can I?" Ma Feifei took out the Badge representing the Book-holding woman and handed it to Azi, laughing tremulously.

Azi took the Badge, glanced at Ma Feifei, got up and ran away.

"Whenever you need Azi's help, just send someone to Qi State to deliver a message."

"Ah! Poor girl." Zhang Yunji leaned against the Bookstore entrance, watching Azi run away from him, and sighed.

"What's so pitiful about it?" asked the Sky-reaching Ape Monkey beside him, puzzled.

Zhang Yunji glanced at the Sky-reaching Ape Monkey, shook his head, and said, "You don't understand. Watch your door."

"Hey! Why don't I understand? It's just women! I had several concubines back in the day, some of them were even human." The Sky-reaching Ape Monkey retorted disdainfully. During its years as king of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, it had indeed captured some human cultivators, both men and women. It usually killed the men, and took the obedient women as maids, while killing the disobedient ones.

Zhang Yunji rolled his eyes, about to argue with the Sky-reaching Ape Monkey, when he suddenly sensed something was wrong, frowned, and turned around to look.

Two men were slowly walking towards them.

There were many people on the long street, but they were the most eye-catching, and one could feel the powerful aura emanating from them.

Instead of concealing their auras, the two of them released them, causing the surrounding cultivators to retreat in fear of their powerful presence.

"It seems like they're coming for us!" the Sky-reaching Ape Monkey said in a serious tone.

Zhang Yunji calmly took two steps back and said, "You check the situation first, I'll go in and report to the shop owner."

Without waiting for the Sky-reaching Ape Monkey to react, Zhang Yunji ran straight into the Bookstore.

"..." Sky-reaching Ape Monkey watched Zhang Yunji's departing figure speechlessly, inwardly cursing Zhang Yunji for being too hateful. The newcomer's aura was so powerful that even he himself felt immense pressure, clearly proving that the other party's strength had exceeded the Peak of the Ninth Stage of Spirit Saint.

How could he stop it in this situation?

However, there was nothing the Sky-reaching Ape Monkey could do now. As a guardian Divine Beast, he couldn't run away just because he felt he couldn't win. He understood the principle of being loyal to his duty.

"Halt! The quota for today's book viewing is full. If you two still wish to enter the Bookstore, please purchase a special number and arrive early on the date specified on it." The Sky-reaching Ape Monkey stopped the two who were about to enter the Bookstore and said in a deep voice.

At the same time, the Golden Cudgel that Sky-reaching Ape Monkey was holding appeared in his hand without him even noticing.

"You want to stop us?" the young man said calmly, looking at the Sky-reaching Ape Monkey.

At this moment, the surroundings were filled with cultivators, all looking at the scene with shocked expressions, but they dared not utter a sound, for fear of offending them and getting burned.

Customers reading inside the Bookstore sensed something was off, put down their books, looked towards the door, and saw this scene.

"This is the Mysterious Bookstore. Please abide by the rules of the Mysterious Bookstore," the Sky-reaching Ape Monkey said in a deep voice.

"Heh!" The young man smiled slightly, stretched out one hand, drew a palm, and slapped it directly at the Sky-reaching Ape Monkey.
