The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 126 - 92 Alcohol2

The newly arrived "Alcohol Immortal" squatted down and revealed an amused expression to the Three-Bearded Monk: "Are all those from the Clearing Void Sect cowards? Liu Manzi, did you say that too?"

"Ma... Master Uncle!" The Three-Bearded Cultivator Liu Manzi had already stopped his wailing, his head drenched in cold sweat, curled up on the ground, repeatedly pleading, "I was wrong, Master Uncle, please spare my life!"

The man coldly said: "You’ve long been expelled from the Clearing Void Sect, why still call Master Uncle? Though he spoke indifferently, he nevertheless took out a dicine pill and threw it to Liu Manzi, "Daring to slander my Clearing Void Sect and causing a ruckus here in the mutual market, bullying mortals, I’ll break three of your fingers as punishnt. Take this dicine and get lost!"

Liu Manzi, as if granted an amnesty, picked up the dicine pill and ran away without looking back.

At that mont, the guards of the mutual market arrived, three cultivators dressed in Clearing Void Sect attire, who upon seeing the man at the scene, exclaid in alarm: "Master Uncle!" and promptly saluted.

Who knew this "Master Uncle" wasn’t much kinder to them: "Being stationed in the mutual market yet letting Liu Manzi sneak in and threaten mortals, you’ve done a fine job indeed. Go back to the sect and accept your punishnt for negligence."

Rock City is the Clearing Void Sect’s territory, naturally, the guards here are disciples of the sect. According to the regulations, the mutual market guards are divided into three groups, each patrolling once every 15 minutes. Ning Xiaoxian and this Three-Bearded Cultivator had tangled for nearly two quarters of an hour; if the guards were attentive, they might have noticed sothing amiss, showing their dereliction of duty. Especially since Liu Manzi had swindled here several tis and had been complained about by nurous victims, he was already on the "blacklist."

The man then turned his gaze to Ning Xiaoxian: "Did you suffer any harm, miss?"

She quickly shook her head. The fight hadn’t even started, and he had already arrived, hadn’t he? Co to think of it, she wasn’t sure who this man was saving, her or Liu Manzi. He only injured three of Liu Manzi’s fingers, but if she had made a move, the Three-Bearded Monk might have lost his life.

She stepped forward and whispered: "This scam was set up by two people together. The other cultivator competing with to buy the pill furnace is also a swindler. He originally went towards the recomndation area, and might be hiding in the crowd watching the commotion now."

This kind of scam requires two people to perform a double act, to make it lively and believable.

The man raised an eyebrow and gestured to the guards, whispering a few orders. It seed the other cultivator was also singled out by the mutual market authorities, so it didn’t take long for the guards to cause a stir in the crowd, and soon they were escorting soone away. Judging by the figure, wasn’t it that cultivator?

No wonder the guards acted so swiftly. Ning Xiaoxian, with her sharp ears, heard the man tell the guards: "Liu Manzi’s accomplice is hiding in the crowd, capture him and you’ll be exempt from punishnt."

"My surna is Tantai, and I’ve been overseeing the mutual market these past few days." Admiration was evident in the man’s eyes as he looked at her, "Liu Manzi has repeatedly deceived others in the mutual market; this is the first ti he has failed. The lady is very discerning."

"You flatter . It’s just that he was too hasty, otherwise I might have fallen into the trap as well." Mainly because that small pill furnace appeared too genuine for anyone to suspect it was a fake.

A pitfall? Mr. Tantai was montarily taken aback, then found this description for a scam quite apt, and couldn’t help but burst into laughter. With his smile, there was a hint of wistful autumn breeze. Ning Xiaoxian thought to herself: "Such an unkempt person, I had thought he doesn’t care much for personal hygiene, who knew his teeth would be so white." Her impression of him improved a bit more.

With the matter concluded, Tantai nodded at her and without saying goodbye, turned and left. He didn’t walk quickly, but within a few steps, he disappeared into the crowd, clearly using so kind of Divine Skill.

She muttered to herself: "Not having the haughty arrogance of an average cultivator, yet not quite polite either, this man truly has a strange character." With the commotion caused by Liu Manzi, the entire market’s passersby were staring over here, and she had no choice but to pack up and leave.

Seeing there was no more excitent, the onlookers who knew nothing of the truth reluctantly dispersed with long faces.

The small pill furnace lay quietly on the ground, attracting no attention. Changtian reminded her: "Take the furnace with you as well." Seeing her not moving, he urged, "Take it, quickly."

The furnace isn’t even real, what’s the use of taking it? And why didn’t Changtian warn her it was a fake, almost letting Liu Manzi scam her of her hard-earned money? The more she thought about it, the angrier she beca. If it wasn’t for the many onlookers, she really wanted to flash into the God Demon Prison and confront him.

She didn’t know if she had encountered good or bad luck today; after walking only a dozen or so steps, soone beside her gently called out, "Miss."

What now? Ning Xiaoxian pretended not to hear. In the vast mutual market, there are too many to call "Miss," and not necessarily her. But the person called out several tis, and seeing she kept walking ahead, reluctantly reached out and tugged at her sleeve.

Now she couldn’t pretend any longer. She sighed; she didn’t want to cause any more trouble today and just planned to quickly check if the elixirs were sold in the recomndation area.

Turning to look, it was a man in his early twenties, with an extrely ordinary appearance. However, this man was very polite: "Excuse , are you purchasing Catfish Glue?"

He had Catfish Glue in his hands! Ning Xiaoxian’s spirits lifted. Upon accepting a request, she had to fulfill it earnestly; having agreed to manufacture Disguise Pills for Cui Yingying, she had written "Purchasing Catfish Glue" on the sign as well.

The young man said shyly: "I saw your sign earlier. But there was always soone talking to you at your stall, and I didn’t want to interrupt. Now, as you’re in a hurry to leave, I was afraid I might not find you later, so I took the liberty to bother you, please forgive ." (To be continued.
