Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 782 - 792 Trouble is Coming
"This, this is...the legendary Storage Ring? You are a Sword God Level powerful being!" Lin Chafu spoke somewhat incoherently.
His gaze towards Chu Feng had completely changed.
The expression on his face, besides astonishment, was filled with deep reverence.
Lin Chafu only had the cultivation of a Sword Master, which was slightly better than ordinary people. In his eyes, a Sword God Level fighter was an ethereal existence. Usually, being able to glimpse them from afar was already quite impressive.
Unexpectedly, the young man buying the shopfront now was a Sword God Level powerful being.
And he was wearing a Storage Ring on his hand.
This was a Storage Ring indeed, Lin Chafu had also heard about the Storage Ring by chance. It is said that this kind of treasure is very magical, despite looking similar to an ordinary ring in size, one could store many precious items inside it.
He had always dreamt of possessing a Storage Ring, so he no longer needed to store his silver in the Money Bank.
He could carry it with him wherever he wanted to go.
Using it to transport goods was beyond even his wildest dreams.
This was just his thoughts. If one day he truly owned a Storage Ring and became a Sword God Level fighter, why would he still need to earn money by transporting goods?
Merely acting as a guard for high-ranking officials or wealthy merchants could earn him a substantial income for a year.
...
After Chu Feng showed his absolute financial power, Lin Chafu didn’t say another superfluous word and immediately went with Chu Feng to handle the property transfer procedures. Chu Feng spent only twenty million to buy the shopfront, which was worth thirty-five million.
This rate of earning money was even faster than selling Elixirs.
After everything was taken care of, Chu Feng was also exceptionally happy.
Taking Li Shishi with him, he took over the house.
He checked it once, the house was very spacious and also quite new. Only a few hires of workers were needed, and with slight modifications, it could be turned into the second Longevity Hall.
Currently, the Longevity Hall in Vermilion Bird Imperial City is under the watchful eye of his most trusted disciple, Chen Dazhong, which gave Chu Feng much relief.
It was perfect to transfer individuals like Beixie National Master and Poison Eye Dragon King over to start this new branch.
As for the Pill Masters, a group could also be transferred here in time.
"Shishi, it’s the capable who do more work. I’m afraid this branch might still need you to take charge here. Later, I’ll have Beixie National Master and Poison Eye Dragon King and others come over to assist you," Chu Feng said.
Chu Feng is extremely busy.
He’s about to head to the frontier soon to repel strong enemies. He won’t be staying here for many days.
"No problem, as long as the master trusts me, Shishi is willing to do her best to manage this branch," Li Shishi readily agreed.
When Chu Feng and Li Shishi entered the house, they were completely unaware that two sketchy figures were quietly observing the area on the street. Just after Chu Feng finished inspecting the house, an uninvited group of people rushed into the house.
The leader was a middle-aged man, who had shaved off half of his hair, exposing his muscular arms.
On them was tattooed a ferocious tiger.
The bunch of followers behind him, each of them had stern and fierce looks, clearly not any kind-hearted believers.
After they barged into the house, they immediately closed the main door.
"Who are you people? Why have you intruded into my house?" Chu Feng’s cold gaze swept over the group. His face showed little fear.
Li Shish’s strength was much weaker, and she seemed a bit nervous, unconsciously clinging closer to Chu Feng.
When faced with danger, the weak seek protection from the strong, it is nature, it is instinct.
The leading middle-aged man probably had a Three-star Sword God Cultivation, and the followers behind him were much weaker. Only two of them had reached Sword God Cultivation.
The rest mostly consist of Sword Saints.
To Chu Feng, such a motley crew was no different from garbage. He could easily slaughter them all.
However, considering he had to open and run a store here for a long time. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
A strong dragon does not suppress the local snakes.
If he killed their people, then a deadly feud would be formed. Chu Feng would soon leave, and by then, troubles would likely be incessant.
People like them would retaliate by any means necessary.
Throwing feces at your doorstep in the dead of night, smashing your store’s door, or spreading rumors that your elixirs have killed someone, etc. This would greatly trouble the normal operation of Longevity Hall.
"Kid, stop playing dumb, tell Lin Laifu to roll out here immediately!"
"I am Boss Wei Kun of the Evil Tiger Gang!"
The middle-aged man coolly touched his half-bald head, adorned with two centipede-like scars, adding a bit more ferocity to his appearance.
"My apologies, my apologies, so it’s Boss Wei of the Evil Tiger Gang. I am Chu Feng, the new owner of this mansion. As for Lin Chafu you’re looking for, he has already left Baihu City yesterday."
Chu Feng saw no need to hide anything and told the truth.
Unfortunately, the members of the Evil Tiger Gang did not believe him.
"Humph, you’re fooling ghosts here! I’ve had people surveilling this place and never saw Lin Chafu leave."
"Search!"
Wei Kun’s face turned cold, and he ordered his subordinates to search Chu Feng’s mansion.
He had already investigated Chu Feng’s cultivation, merely a One-star Sword God, thus he didn’t take Chu Feng seriously at all.
"After searching, if you don’t find anyone, will you leave?" Chu Feng asked.
"Stop the nonsense, we from the Evil Tiger Gang are not to be provoked!" Wei Kun simply refused to negotiate with Chu Feng. He didn’t even offer a chance for an equal dialogue.
"I hope that after searching, you can leave immediately. Also, don’t touch anything inside the mansion," Chu Feng’s voice also grew much colder. He was giving these people a chance.
The members of the Evil Tiger Gang charged into the rooms to search, while Chu Feng stood still.
He released his powerful Divine Sense, directly monitoring these people.
One of the members of the Evil Tiger Gang, upon rushing into a room, could’ve seen everything at a glance. However, instead of doing so, he began to open cabinets and drawers, looking for valuable items.
The mansion now belonged to Chu Feng, and allowing these people to search was already a huge concession.
They still wanted to rob the mansion of its valuable items. How could Chu Feng agree?
This mansion cost him a total of two thousand Spirit Stones.
"Humph, asking for trouble!"
Chu Feng snorted coldly, and with a flash of sword light, he manipulated the Demon Slaying Sword to kill from hundreds of meters away.
"Ah... my hand!"
The Heavenly Divine Weapon under his control ruthlessly severed the hand of that Evil Tiger Gang member.
"All members of the Evil Tiger Gang listen well, searching is allowed. If anyone tries to steal or vandalize, next time it won’t be just a hand being severed." After demonstrating his authority, Chu Feng shouted coldly.
"Dare to touch my Evil Tiger Gang’s people, you will definitely pay the price! All of you maintain some discipline, don’t disgrace us!" Wei Kun, after all, was a Big Chief and cared about his face.
Stealing from others was dishonorable.
After Chu Feng established his dominance, these people became much more disciplined, and no one dared to touch anything inside anymore. The search ended quickly with nothing found.
