Chapter 139: Chapter 101: Leaving the Island to Search for Medicine!

“`

The entire island was quite large, spanning hundreds of miles around.

Lush ancient woods filled the area, branches spreading wide and leaves abundant, with hints of coolness wafting through the air.

There was a medium-sized marketplace at the center of the island, with a main road leading straight to the entrance of the marketplace.

Lu Li walked on the giant green stone pavement, surrounded by abundant Spiritual Energy, with a gentle breeze caressing his face, which felt extremely comfortable.

Many Qi Refinement Cultivators were on the road, heading towards the marketplace.

They all made way upon seeing Lu Li, their faces showing respect.

Occasionally, he would encounter a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators, all masked and quite mysterious.

Before long, he arrived at the entrance of the marketplace.

As soon as he stepped in, the scenery changed. A road paved with Jade led straight to the end of the marketplace, with a variety of shops lined up on both sides.

High-grade Magic Artifacts and talismans were fully stacked on the shelves, appearing to be of excellent quality.

The area was filled with noisy sounds, the clamor of peddling, bargaining voices all entering the ears, much like a bustling fair.

Lu Li followed the main road forward, and quickly stopped at a corner.

To the left was a large shop, decorated very luxuriously.

A plaque that read “Golden Jade Pavilion” stood above the red porch.

Lu Li stepped in; the entire hall was spacious, with shelves filled with various Medicine Pills and Magic Artifacts, radiating rich treasure light.

There was also a staircase at the back, leading to the second floor.

A young woman sat behind the counter, head down.

The woman was around twenty years old, with a delicate face and not high in cultivation–just at the sixth level of Qi Refinement.

Feeling the presence of a guest, Hu Juan looked up and was immediately startled, then quickly walked towards the entrance.

“May I ask what the expert needs? Our Golden Jade Pavilion also deals with second-tier Magic Artifacts and Medicine Pills.”

She slightly bowed, her face respectful.

“Do you have third-tier Spirit Pills for sale?”

Lu Li’s expression was calm.

“This… Please wait a moment, sir. I will call my mother.”

Hu Juan’s expression changed slightly, and then a Communication Talisman shot towards the top of the building.

“Tap…”

In a short while, the soft sound of footsteps was heard.

A beautiful woman in a blue dress walked down the stairs.

This person was in her thirties, with cultivation at the peak of Qi Refinement, and her figure was quite voluptuous, as if perfectly ripe.

“Ah… I heard a magpie at my door early this morning. It turns out a distinguished guest has arrived…”

Lin Yuelan smiled faintly, giving off a spring breeze-like feeling.

As she spoke, she gracefully walked towards Lu Li.

“Does your shop have third-tier Spirit Pills?”

Lu Li didn’t beat around the bush.

“The expert needs which kind of Spirit Pill? I have several common third-tier Medicine Pills here.”

“Do you have a Spirit Pill for treating chronic injuries of Qi Refinement Cultivators?”

Lin Yuelan clasped her hands together, an apologetic look on her face: “I’m sorry, our store only has ordinary third-tier pills for restoring Mana.”

“The expert requires a pill for restoring one’s origin, right? Such a pill is indeed quite rare.”

Lu Li nodded indifferently, then prepared to turn around and leave the shop to inquire at a few other places.

At this moment, Lin Yuelan suddenly called out to stop him.

“Our shop is the largest on the entire island. Compared to other shops, it is difficult to buy such items. However…”

Her tone hesitated.

Lu Li stopped in his tracks, his expression changing.

“Does your shop have any channels or news?”

Lin Yuelan bit her lip: “In three months, there will be an underground auction. I’ve heard that third-tier Spirit Pills will be auctioned, and I happen to have an invitation…”

“How many Spirit Stones?”

Lu Li asked slowly.

“No need for Spirit Stones, just one time help from the expert, is that possible?”

Lin Yuelan’s eyes were full of hope.

Lu Li’s brows raised at her words, his expression cold.

“Tell me, what exactly is it!”

Debts of gratitude are hard to repay since ancient times. Using Spirit Stones is much more convenient.

If it involved something dangerous and required his intervention, he would have to think of some other way.

Lin Yuelan’s face turned bitter: “My husband was killed by a Foundation Establishment Cultivator a few years ago, just for a minor slight. I hope the expert can help me take revenge.”

“You, as the proprietor of Golden Jade Pavilion, don’t have a Foundation Establishment Cultivator to stand up for you? Why must you ask me to act?”

Lu Li frowned.

“I am just an ordinary Guest Official Cultivator. The owner is also a Foundation Establishment Expert who would not care about such trifles.”

Lin Yuelan’s eyes reddened.

“I have sought many Foundation Establishment Experts, and no one is willing to confront another Foundation Establishment Cultivator.”

After contemplating briefly, Lu Li decided to first investigate the situation. After all, time was precious, and it was not certain that he could find it elsewhere.

“What is this person’s level of cultivation?”

Lin Yuelan’s eyebrows relaxed, she said cautiously: “It is said that he is at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.”

After saying this, she glanced at Lu Li, and seeing his unchanged expression, her heart settled even more.

The previous Foundation Establishment Experts all shook their heads in refusal, but today this young powerhouse was very calm, which surely meant he was extremely powerful.

“Hm… give me the information about this person first.”

Lu Li nodded indifferently.

Lin Yuelan gladly handed over a Jade Scroll.

Lu Li took the Jade Scroll and walked towards the outside.

“Prepare that invitation for me. I wouldn’t want any mishaps.”

He left these indisputable words behind before leaving.

“I dare not deceive the expert.”

Lin Yuelan bowed, outlining her perfect figure.

Moments later, when Lu Li left the shop, Hu Juan looked puzzled: “Mother, can this person succeed?”

“Alas… one must take a dying horse to be a living horse doctor. However, he seems to carry some confidence in his demeanor.”

Lin Yuelan’s expression was melancholy.

“This person must be a cultivator from outside. If he were a local powerhouse, the invitation wouldn’t be enough for a Foundation Establishment Expert to take action.”
