Longevity: From Being Pushed By The Witch

"Bring me those talismans to take a look."

"Yes!"

The middle-aged shopkeeper took the talismans and carefully compared them, saying,

"These two-star medium-grade talismans and low-grade talismans are all made by the same person."

"As for the one-star talismans, they can still be divided into two categories."

"However... recently, the first category of one-star high-grade talismans has become even more skilled in terms of spiritual patterns and techniques, surpassing even the two-star talisman makers in terms of technique and understanding of runes!"

"These two individuals are not simple. To make such progress in such a short period of time, their future achievements will definitely not be low! Even the grandmaster level is just a matter of time."

"You mentioned earlier that this talisman master wants to buy the detoxification pill?"

The middle-aged shopkeeper looked at Qiuyu and asked.

"That's right!"

Qiuyu nodded and continued,

"However, I can't be sure if this detoxification pill is for the talisman master himself. After all, this matter involves privacy. If we inquire too much, it might cause displeasure."

"Even if we don't know, it doesn't matter. This pill is either for the talisman master himself or for the talisman master behind him."

"Both of these talisman masters are worth cultivating for the business."

"I think that if the business increases the discount, it can win the favor of these two talisman masters!"

"You're right..."

The middle-aged man nodded and then said,

"According to reason, the high-grade detoxification pill is an auction item, not for direct sale, and the price is more than three times that of the high-grade detoxification pill."

"Let's sell it to this talisman master at 80% of the lowest auction price during this period!"

"As for the business increasing the discount, there's no need to tell him. Let's see how he reacts."

"If he's a fool..."

The middle-aged man glanced at Qiuyu and didn't say anything else. He waved his hand, indicating that she could leave.

Qiuyu nodded slightly, bowed to the middle-aged man, and then left the room directly.

Not long after...

She returned to the reception room where Ji Boying was.

"Talisman Master Ji, the price of the high-grade detoxification pill has been set. Please check the goods first!"

Qiuyu smiled and handed the box containing the high-grade detoxification pill to Ji Boying.

Ji Boying opened the box and waved his hand slightly. Immediately, a refreshing fragrance wafted out!

When this fragrance entered his body, Ji Boying felt refreshed, and even the toxins that had been suppressed in his body due to the competition were quieted down at this moment.

"Not bad!"

Ji Boying closed the box again and asked,

"I wonder how much this pill is priced at?"

"24,000 medium-grade spirit stones!"

Qiuyu smiled.

"24,000?"

Ji Boying couldn't help but pause for a moment, then seemed to think of something and joked,

"Qiuyu Fellow Daoist, you didn't make a mistake in the price, did you?"

"Giggle... Ji Fellow Daoist, you really know how to joke!"

Qiuyu lightly covered her lips, and this smile instantly became charming, giving Ji Boying a moment of distraction.

Seemingly aware of Ji Boying's brief loss of composure, a hint of strangeness flashed in Qiuyu's eyes. Then she hinted,

"If I made a mistake in the price, I would be punished."

Upon hearing this, Ji Boying came back to his senses and smiled,

"If Qiuyu Fellow Daoist is punished, wouldn't I be at fault?"

"Yeah... I wonder if Ji Fellow Daoist will plead for me then?"

Qiuyu's face still carried a hint of a smile.

"Then Qiuyu Fellow Daoist must inform me in advance."

Ji Boying also smiled, seemingly joking.

"Then it's a deal?"

"It's a deal!"

The two chatted for a while, and then Ji Boying bid farewell and left the Wandao Trading Company with the elixir.

However...

Before leaving, he vaguely said to Qiuyu, "Whether it's Fellow Daoist Qiu's kindness or the company's goodwill, I understand it in my heart!"

Qiuyu watched Ji Boying's departing figure and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

"Understood?"

---

After leaving the Wandao Trading Company, Ji Boying passed by the market and bought some daily necessities before heading towards the Yuxia Mountain.

During this period of time, Ji Boying no longer packed his own meals.

After all, Xiao Ninger personally offered to cook for him.

Ji Boying enjoyed it as well.

Although the taste of the Drunken Immortal Tower was good, it couldn't compare to the aroma of his wife's cooking. It had the taste of home.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Ji Boying's face.

However...

Just as he left the outer city market, a familiar feeling came over him once again.

His gaze slightly narrowed, and the smile on his face turned cold.

This time...

He didn't turn around to look behind him because the other party intended to hide. He had never learned any soul-searching techniques, so he couldn't find them at all.

Instead of doing that, he might as well wait and see.

Ji Boying put everything into his storage bag, then changed his route and walked in another direction.

Although there were disciples and guards from the Chiyan Sect on Yuxia Mountain, it was safer for him to go there himself.

But...

If he didn't eliminate the roots, it would be like exposing his own lair.

No matter how well-guarded Yuxia Mountain was, there would always be loopholes. Ji Boying didn't dare to take the risk.

After about the time it takes to burn an incense stick, Ji Boying arrived at a forest.

He stopped in his tracks and chuckled.

"You've been following me for so long, is it time to show yourself?"

As soon as his words fell, the air momentarily stagnated.

The next moment...

Five cultivators dressed in black and wearing masks appeared out of thin air.

The aura emanating from them had already reached the late Qi Refining stage, and one of them was even at the peak of the Qi Refining stage, just one step away from becoming a Foundation Building cultivator!

Ji Boying glanced at the five of them and smiled.

"I wonder what you all want from me?"

The five didn't speak, but exchanged glances with each other. Then, without saying a word, they directly attacked Ji Boying.

What the f*ck?

Aren't villains supposed to say a few words at this time? Even if they don't reveal their identity, they should at least act cool and say a few tough words!

Why are they attacking directly?

And...

Five late Qi Refining stage cultivators attacking a mere fifth level Qi Refining cultivator like me at the same time.

Is that appropriate?

The novel misled me!

Seeing the five attacking almost simultaneously, a serious expression appeared on Ji Boying's face.

In just an instant, one person launched the first attack from behind.

Ji Boying only slightly turned his head and glanced with the corner of his eye, then fiercely struck out with a palm.

The moment their bodies made contact, a crisp sound rang out.

The next moment...

That person was sent flying like a cannonball and crashed heavily onto the ground.

Seeing this scene, a look of disbelief appeared in everyone's eyes.

"A Foundation Building cultivator?!"
