CHAPTER FIFTY-THREE

VERDANT PILLS

The guy standing in front of all the other thugs wore cultivator robes, his Qi flaring all around him. I extended my senses and found he was in the lower fourth realm. I was both impressed by the show and pitied all of them.

Impressed, as even a large sect like Cloudy Peak sect would easily pick up a disciple in the fourth realm, even if they aren’t too young—he could pass for his mid-twenties. If any sect outside of the Seven Celestial Peaks were to recruit him, he’d easily become the core disciple or heir.

Yet, at the same time I pitied them because these goons picked the worst time to arrive. Again. When there were so many of us around and a prodigious thunder cultivator.

“Whatcha here for? We’ve already paid ya guys,” Su Lin said, straightening his back. With a perpetual sleazy look and slouch, it was easy to forget that Su Lin was quite tall and well-built. Taller than me, and I was fairly tall.

The thug glared, his presence flaring outward. Surprisingly, Su Lin held his own, not budging an inch, with a wide grin covering his face.

“Yer the guy Silver Fang threw out, aren’t ya?” the thug asked.

Silver Fang. I’d heard Su Lin mention the name before. The guy running these thugs around? Wait, have I stumbled upon some kind of black-market drug syndicate in real life?

“The protection fee’s been raised, didn’t ya hear? It’s five golds now. Unless you want the halls sending their cultivators to see just what kinda pills you’ve got stocked up in there, I’d suggest either pay up or leave the shop and run,” the thug said, and I sensed Su Lin’s anger rising, his grin fading into a deep frown.

“Heavens, can’t even let an old woman live in peace,” Granny Lang said as she walked out, glaring at the thug.

“Don’t pretend to be some frail old woman, hag.” A mocking grin spread across the thug’s face. “We’ve heard about you and what you used to do.”

Granny Lang clicked her tongue. “Pay them whatever they want,” she said, turning to head inside.

Su Lin clenched his fists, glaring the thug down.

My eyes drifted to the back of the group, meeting the familiar thug, Zou Chen, from last time. His eyes widened, nudging the cultivator standing in front.

“Is that the guy? Cloudy Peak sect, not to mention an outer disciple,” the thug said, his gaze drifting from me to Yan Yun and Liuxiang standing nearby. I had a suspicion I knew exactly what the thug was going to say.

“What’s a beauty like that doing with the likes of these two? And a pretty boy, huh? Never knew you swung that way, Su Lin.” The thug laughed and his lackeys followed.

“You should leave them and come to Silver Fang. He’d appreciate your beauty a lot more closely. Even that pretty boy would make for a nice treat,” the guy said.

Yan Yun’s Qi crackled within her core.

“I said it the last time and I’ll say it again.
