Passing through the main gate of the Xu family, facing the sunlight, Verdantius Liu took a deep breath. As an Immortal Emperor, he was not on the same level as a group of servants. Canglan City was vast, with a population of several million. Apart from the four major families, the most influential force was the lord of Canglan City. The streets of the city crisscrossed, with numerous shops and businesses. The Yan Dynasty was vast, and Canglan City was just one of its cities. The place Verdantius Liu wanted to go was called Pill Treasure cockloft, the largest supplier of medicinal herbs in Canglan City and a point of sale for elixirs. It did not belong to any family and was not under the jurisdiction of the city lord. It existed independently, and it was said that the powerful Pill Treasure Sect stood behind it. Prolonging Elixirs were rare and of low grade, making them difficult to refine. Three glittering golden characters hung on the signboard of Pill Treasure cockloft. Even from a distance, they could be seen clearly. Many martial artists entered and exited. Following the crowd, Verdantius Liu walked in. What came into view was a huge hall divided into several areas: points of sale for elixirs, areas for selling medicinal herbs, and more. There were also some demonic beast fur and inner cores. Despite being separated by the counters, the scent of the elixirs could not be concealed, nor could the fierce aura released by the inner cores of the demonic beasts. "May I ask what the young master needs?" A servant in green clothes quickly approached, warmly greeting him. However, a hint of disdain flashed in the servant eyes. Compared to others, Verdantius Liu's attire was too ordinary, and the blue shirt on him had been washed almost white. "I want to see your manager. Please inform him." Verdantius Liu took in the disdain in the other's eyes, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. "Our manager is busy and has no time to see idle people. If you're not buying medicine, then get out." The servant in green clothes was unreserved, giving Verdantius Liu a push. However, However, the servant couldn't move him, and a trace of killing intent flashed in Verdantius Liu's eyes. This action attracted the attention of many people. They stopped to watch, looking towards them. "Isn't he the Xu family's son-in-law? Why did he come to Pill Treasure cockloft?" News about the Xu family's son-in-law had long spread throughout Canglan City. Everyone knew about it, especially after last night's incident, which made it even more widely known. Hearing about the Xu family's son-in-law, the servant in green clothes showed a trace of mockery and a disdainful smile. As a waste in the eyes of everyone, the son-in-law of the Xu family had already become a mouse crossing the street, and everyone shouted to beat him. For this servant to take action against him, there was no pressure at all. "Get out. Pill Treasure cockloft won't do business with you." The servant showed a fierce light, wanting Verdantius Liu to leave quickly and not step into Pill Treasure cockloft. They spoke with such arrogance because Pill Treasure cockloft was not subject to any force. These servants, known for their haughtiness, had high eyes, looking down on everyone who entered. A small servant of Pill Treasure cockloft was not someone an ordinary person could afford to offend. The high status of Pill Treasure cockloft could be imagined. "You sure you want to miss this deal? Don't blame me for not reminding you. Once you miss this deal, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear the consequences." A cold light flashed in Verdantius Liu's eyes, frightening the green-clothed servant, causing him to stagger. "Damn it, you waste dare to threaten me. If you won't leave, then I'll beat you to death and throw you out." As he spoke, he actually struck. The servant's strength was not low, and a fist came towards Verdantius Liu's face. The fist wind whistled, creating a vortex, lifting up Verdantius Liu's sideburns. If it were an ordinary person, the green-clothed servant wouldn't dare to take action. The son-in-law of the Xu family had long become a mouse crossing the street, known by everyone. For him to take action, there was no pressure. "Bang!" Before the fist wind approached, Verdantius Liu lifted his foot and kicked viciously at the servant's abdomen. The body was thrown high into the air, crashing into the counter, and the sturdy counter shattered into pieces, with medicinal herbs scattered all over the floor. The sudden kick caught everyone off guard. The crowd automatically made way for a large area, avoiding trouble. Offending Pill Treasure cockloft would mean no more future in Canglan City. "Cough..." The green-clothed servant coughed up blood on the ground. Suddenly, more than a dozen servants rushed from different directions, two of them holding weapons, surrounding Verdantius Liu. "You are too arrogant. Dare to injure people in our Pill Treasure cockloft. Capture him." One of them, dressed in a purple robe, seemed to be a small supervisor. With a command, more than a dozen servants simultaneously attacked, creating a formidable momentum. The formed wave of qi directly pressured Verdantius Liu. Each person's strength was not weak, and the man in the purple robe had reached the Fourth Stage of acquired. His strength was extraordinary, and a ruler in his hand struck towards the back of Verdantius Liu's head, a deadly move. With things having come to this point, Verdantius Liu had no choice. If he didn't take action, he would die at their hands. Stepping with the Seven-Star Step, he easily avoided the lethal move, appearing behind them like a ghost. Like a specter, he avoided all the attacks of the dozen or so people. Transforming palms into fists, smashing down in mid-air, turning around and punching with smooth and unhindered movements, this simple boxing technique, in the hands of Verdantius Liu, can turn decay into magic. "Boom, boom, boom..." Five servants were sent flying, crashing into the counter. They lay on the ground, wailing in pain. These servants were not weak; those who were thrown achieved at least the strength of the Triple Heaven postnatal realm. A man in a purple robe roared like a fierce eagle, suddenly descending with a violent momentum. He swept up the herbs on the ground. It was evident that he was at the Quintuple Heaven postnatal realm. His strength, compared to the Triple Heaven, was several levels higher. Verdantius Liu did not confront him head-on but gracefully dodged the attack. His current combat power was more than enough to deal with someone at the Quintuple Heaven postnatal realm. He didn't want to reveal his strength too early; the person who wanted to kill him hadn't been identified yet, so he chose to remain hidden. Stepping on the Seven Stars, easily evading, the purple-robed man's attack missed, and he howled in frustration. The sounds of the fight in the hall alarmed the entire Pill Treasure cockloft. A servant hurriedly ran into the inner hall to call for reinforcements. "Stop!" A stern shout interrupted them. Verdantius Liu retracted and stood still, quietly in the center. He had no injuries, but on the ground, eight or nine people were sprawled in various positions, injured by Verdantius Liu. A robust old man, moving like a meteor, appeared in the hall. He looked at the scattered herbs, anger rising. His eyes, like eagle eyes, fixed on Verdantius Liu. A terrifying aura approached. Innate Realm! The robust old man was a master, and everyone in the room fell silent. No one dared to speak, and they retreated to a distance. Verdantius Liu stood alone, isolated. "Why did you attack people in the Pill Treasure cockloft?" The robust old man, named Arboreus Lei, had been in charge of the Pill Treasure cockloft's hall for over thirty years and had never encountered anyone daring to harm people within the pavilion. Verdantius Liu was the first. "I have matters to discuss with the manager here. Instead of introducing me, this person not only insulted me but also attacked me first. I only acted in self-defense." Verdantius Liu didn't want to explain, but in order to smoothly obtain the herbs, he briefly recounted what had happened. "Do you think the Pill Treasure cockloft is a place where you can see whoever you want? Report to Manager Lei. I suggest killing this person to set an example." The man in the purple robe exuded a murderous intent, eager to kill Verdantius Liu. In his hand, a ruler appeared, unexpectedly a deadly weapon. Other servants nodded in agreement, urging Manager Lei to kill him quickly. Manager Lei had some knowledge about Verdantius Liu. He had heard a bit about him from others, and given the Xu family's face, he temporarily restrained himself from taking action. "I am the manager here. What do you want with me?" Suppressing his anger, he would seek compensation from the Xu family for the losses here. The reputation of the Pill Treasure cockloft must not be damaged. "There are too many people here. It's not convenient to talk. Can we find a quieter place?" Verdantius Liu frowned. Some matters were not suitable to discuss in front of too many people. Throughout, his gaze remained calm. Facing Arboreus Lei's oppressive aura, he remained indifferent, giving people the illusion that he didn't care about those in front of him. "Who do you think you are? You want to find a quieter place. I think you're here to cause trouble. I suggest breaking his legs to let him know the consequences of offending our Pill Treasure cockloft." The man in the purple robe persisted, his body itching to move. As long as Arboreus Lei gave the word, he would pounce at any moment, still annoyed by being evaded by Verdantius Liu earlier. "Smack!" A loud slap echoed in the Pill Treasure cockloft. The man in the purple robe was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing into a corner. "Noisy!"
