Outside the Danxia Hall.
Zheng Kejian, who had originally planned to enter the shop for a full view, stopped in his tracks.
His gaze fell on the badge at the lower left corner of the signboard.
Under the golden glow, a three-legged bronze pill tripod was engulfing a round, rolling object.
That object looked like a pill, and also like a proud sun.
This is the emblem of Luo Tian Creed!
The design was inspired by the founder, Luo Chen!
He was skilled in pill refinent and had an impressive Fierce Sun Technique, and the Luo Tian Creed was located on the Danxia Peak, where the sun shone with radiant colors.
Hence, it constituted this beautiful picture of "sunlight shining on the Pill Tripod, raising the Sun".
This picture was also personally designed and painted by Array Master Min Longyu.
Being an Array Master and having so minor painting skills was reasonable!
What made Zheng Kejian pause was not because the sect’s emblem was particularly beautiful.
It was because, on the right side of the proud sun, there was a crystal white flower that seed to be rotating at all tis.
That was, snowflakes.
Not ordinary snowflakes, but the snowflakes from the Ice Castle of the Seven Sects of Yu Ding!
The addition of the two made it feel out of place.
Under this feeling of being out of place, Zheng Kejian hesitated.
He knew better than anyone what this ant.
Because on his Zheng Family’s emblem, there was also a unique fla logo.
It was also that strangely out of place.
But everyone knew that this out of place showed that the Rolling Dragon Ridge Zheng Family was a subsidiary clan of the Fla Alliance.
By this analogy!
"Is this Danxia Luo Tian Creed actually a subsidiary power of the Ice Castle?"
At this mont, Zheng Kejian undoutedly stirred up a storm in his heart.
If this was the case, then all the thods he imagined on the way against Luo Tian Creed were dood.
Those thods were either strong or weak, overt or covert.
There were legitimate ones, and also insidiously vicious ones.
But all of that was established on the condition that the other party was an unassociated, background-less small power.
But now, the other party boldly declared that they were a subsidiary of the Golden Core Great Sect.
In this case, those thods could not be brought to light.
Because doing that would offend a Golden Core Great Sect.
Especially!
Now was the ti when Ice Castle was in charge of Tian Lan Immortal City.
In this period, even the Fla Alliance would be useless.
Even the Yu Ding Sword Sect would have to, according to the agreent, abide by the rules of the Ice Castle.
After all, the Tian Lan Immortal City was built with the joint investnt of The Seven Sects.
During the rotation period of each sect, all the revenues generated by the immortal city would belong to that sect.
Under such circumstances,
Who would dare to offend the Ice Castle?
Even if it’s just a subsidiary force of theirs!
The consequences of offense have precedents to follow.
A hundred years ago, the once prosperous Min Family was no weaker than his Rolling Dragon Ridge Zheng Family.
But because they accidentally offended a Fla Alliance cultivator who was in charge of the Immortal City at that ti, the result was that when they were besieged, the friendly clans were deterred by the pressure of Fla Alliance and did not dare to rescue.
In this way, they were besieged for a year, leading to a tragic end of clan extermination.
In his heart, he wavered with emotions of uncertainty, apprehension, and doubt.
In the end, Zheng Kejian still stepped into Danxia Hall.
"Even if I can’t act against them, I would like to see how you guys have invaded my Zheng Family’s pill market!"
...
The mont he stepped in, Zheng Kejian was alert and began to observe the situation in Danxia Hall.
Overall, there were a lot of people!
There were about a dozen Qi Refinent Stage Rogue Cultivators in the shop.
So were selecting pills, so were asking for information on magic tools, and so were even sitting in window-side chairs, chatting freely with friends while drinking rich and sweet drinks and eating strange snacks.
This shop layout was indeed a bit odd.
It could even be considered neither fish nor fowl. Who would eat and drink while shopping?
However, it was precisely because there were so many people that the maids in the shop were too busy to cope.
So much so that no one was available to attend to Zheng Kejian imdiately.
"It’s just as well, I can first...."
"My friend, is this your first ti visiting our Danxia Hall?"
The pleasant voice took him by surprise.
Looking up, he saw a person, exuding an alluring glow, a stunning beauty walking towards him with an easy grace.
Once Zheng Kejian realized she was talking to him, he nodded and calmly asked, "It’s my first visit. I wonder what special elixirs your shop has?"
Luo Chen guessed it right.
As expected, he ca to ask about the elixirs!
Gu Caiyi swallowed in her mind but didn’t let it show on her face.
She enthusiastically guided him to the side of the window.
"Xiao Lian, bring the tea!"
Zheng Kejian subconsciously sat down and intended to say that he was just asking, no need to eat or drink.
But unexpectedly, the female cultivator said enthusiastically, "Don’t decline, friend. For all first-ti shop entrants, we will provide free milk tea and delicious snacks."
Soon, a maid carrying a tray brought a cup of pure white beverage and stacks of snacks.
"This is White Lan Bobo Bubble Milk Tea, made with spirit spring from Tianlan Peak, supplented with fish milk produced by the Bobo Fish, and brewed with several kinds of spirit fruits. It tastes extrely delicious. Friend, would you like to give it a try?"
Zheng Kejian was not originally interested.
But hearing her explain it so beautifully, he decided to give it a taste.
Upon entry, it was extrely refreshing.
After swallowing it, there was an aftertaste in his throat.
Not only that, but there was also a faint trace of spirit qi in his body soaking into his ridians, like spring water.
He hesitated slightly.
What’s this?
It’s so delicious and there’s spirit qi!
