Mortal Seeking Immortal

Chapter 798: Learning the truth

Ye Zhou took out a storage bag filled with spirit stones from his arms, handed it to the shopkeeper and said sincerely: "To be honest, I commissioned the refinery shop next door to help me refine a magic weapon some time ago. Today I came to pick up the magic weapon as agreed. I just want to know where the shopkeeper went. I won't cause you any trouble."

Even though Ye Zhou said so, the shopkeeper still waved his hands repeatedly as if he had met the plague god and said: "Senior, please don't embarrass me. I really don't know anything."

After the shopkeeper said this, he glanced at Ye Zhou's expression again, as if he was worried about angering Ye Zhou, and lowered his voice to explain: "I hope you will forgive me, I still have to rely on this refinery shop to support my family, and I don't want to get involved in trouble."

After speaking, the shopkeeper turned around and picked up a feather duster and began to clean the dust on the counter.

Seeing this, Ye Zhou knew that he couldn't ask anything here, so he put away the storage bag and left the shop.

Standing on the street, Ye Zhou looked at the shops around him again. He saw that the shopkeepers and clerks in the shops all subconsciously avoided the smashed equipment refining shop. He frowned and walked out of the market, ready to find someone in the city to ask.

As soon as Ye Zhou walked out of the West Market, a deliberately low voice came from the alley beside him: "Senior Ye!"

Ye Zhou's left hand subconsciously pressed on the storage ring, and at the same time, the Demon God Body Forging Art in his body made a buzzing sound.

Ye Zhou turned his head and saw a familiar figure standing at the entrance of the alley, looking around carefully. When he saw him looking, the owner of the figure smiled.

"Senior Ye, I am Xun Ke, the clerk of the equipment refining shop."

Xun Ke quickly added a sentence because he was worried that Ye Zhou had forgotten him.

Ye Zhou nodded at him and was about to ask, but Xun Ke motioned Ye Zhou to follow him.

Ye Zhou thought for a moment, quietly activated the Demon God Body Forging Technique, and walked into the alley with Xun Ke.

Xun Ke led Ye Zhou through the alley quickly. The two of them turned around and walked for about a quarter of an hour before entering a very remote alley.

Ye Zhou released his spiritual sense to explore both sides and found that most of the alleys were empty courtyards with no one living on them. If a robbery occurred here, it would not attract the attention of the patrol team in the city.

Ye Zhou's eyes condensed, his right hand lowered, and his wide sleeves covered his right hand.

At this moment, Xun Ke, who was leading the way in front, stopped and turned around to see that no one was following him. He breathed a sigh of relief and said to Ye Zhou: "Senior Ye, please forgive me. I am worried that those people will find me and cause trouble for you, so I can only bring you here."

Ye Zhou nodded slightly and asked: "Are those people you are talking about the ones who smashed your shop? Where are Master Zhao and the shopkeeper who refines the weapon now?"

Xun Ke said with a sad look in his eyes: "Senior Ye, Master Zhao was injured by them and is now recovering from his injuries. The shopkeeper is taking care of Master Zhao."

Ye Zhou asked again: "What happened in your shop? Xianliu City prohibits cultivators from fighting in the city. Did you offend the people in the City Lord's Mansion?"

Xun Ke shook his head and said: "Senior Ye, even if our shopkeeper was given ten courages, he would not dare to offend the people in the City Lord's Mansion. This time, someone took a fancy to our shop and wanted to buy our weapon refinery shop and the things in the shop at a low price of 50,000 medium-grade spirit stones. 's all materials and magic tools, our shopkeeper didn't want to, so we had a big fight. "

Ye Zhou thought: "He wants to buy your refining shop for 50,000 medium-grade spirit stones. This person is either crazy or has a great background."

"Your shopkeeper is very good at dealing with people. Just find a reason to refuse him. How could you offend him?"

Xun Ke smiled bitterly: "Senior Ye doesn't know that the shopkeeper was confused by the man's rude words at that time. In addition, he was unfamiliar with the man and his cultivation was only at the foundation-building stage. That's why he didn't even know the man's background and refused him without hesitation."

"Afterwards, the shopkeeper was about to find someone to inquire about the man's identity, but he led two Jindan-level cultivators to smash our shop and looted all the refining materials and various magic tools in the shop."

Ye Zhou frowned and said: "Openly smashing shops in the market and looting the property in the shop, the patrol team doesn't care about this?"
