Before leaving, the woman surnamed Wang gave Hou Jiuming a jade token, saying that with it, he could buy anything sold in all the stores of King Huanyue's family without any contribution.
However, it can only be used once!
Of course, taking this opportunity, he also took the opportunity to ask the woman about the nearest trading place for immortal cultivators.
Although it was revealed that he was a rookie who embarked on the path of cultivation by chance.
But because of this, more information was obtained.
For example, the largest immortal cultivating sect nearby is called Huating Sect.
The Immortal Cultivating Family that Wang Jinzhen belongs to is attached to this sect.
In addition to their family, there are two other families nearby,
They are the Li family of Qianyu Kingdom.
The Ji Family of Mingfeng Country.
Also attached to the Huating Sect.
There is also the Luoyue Mountain Range nearby. Although there are countless opportunities, it hides a great monster and no one dares to go deep into it easily.
Not only that, Wang Jinzhen also told him about another major force in the world of immortality.
The Demon Sect's disciple Shen Zong is the opposite of the Huating Sect. The disciples of this sect are best at driving ghosts and are often active in the Huating Sect's sphere of influence.
Be careful when encountering him.
Because they are not so friendly to casual cultivators, when they encounter those who are not as powerful as themselves, they almost always kill them directly and refine their souls into their own ghost servants.

Thinking about things in my mind, I walked back all the way,
As a result, as soon as I walked near Sihai Teahouse, I saw a large group of people gathered around my door. They were all pointing and pointing, as if something was happening inside.
Seeing this, he no longer cared about the things in his mind. He quickly walked a few steps, squeezed through the crowd, and entered the store.
As soon as I walked in, I knew what was going on.
It turns out that today is the time for the Iron Fist Gang to collect protection money. It may be that he has not been back for a long time, which makes those gang members dissatisfied.
So, I just asked people to occupy the entire store, and I didn't even drink tea. I just sat there and didn't let you do business.
"Hey, Boss Hou is back?
You are very arrogant, let me wait until now, what do you think we should do?" The person who came to collect the protection money was in charge of this area, so he naturally knew Hou Jiuming.
When I saw him arriving, I immediately started talking angrily.
"Boss Li, I'm sorry, I was delayed because I had something urgent to do at noon. Don't worry, I'll go get this month's share right away. Also, I bought you tea today, so you can drink whatever you want!"
As the saying goes, the King of Hell is so difficult to deal with. He will stay here for a while. There is no need to offend these ruffians for such things.
"Boss Li, let's face it. The brothers are waiting for you here."
"Okay, okay, please wait a moment, I'll be back soon!" After saying that, he hurried to the backyard.
He went up to the second floor, took out a five-tael silver ingot from the cash box, returned to the first floor, and gave it to the gangster named Li!
Just when he thought the matter was over, the man named Li spoke again.
I saw him shaking the silver ingot in his hand and saying casually, "Boss Hou, isn't that the right number?"
Hou Jiuming, who was already impatient with these bastards, immediately became angry when he heard this. However, he still said with a smile on his face.
"What's wrong? Wasn't it the same amount last month?"
"Last month is last month. This month, my brothers are a little tight on money, so I want Boss Hou to buy more tea money." The gangster named Li tilted his head and explained with a ruffian look on his face.
As soon as he finished speaking, the younger brothers behind him immediately responded.
"Yes, it's just a little extra tea money. Boss Hou won't refuse, right?"
"It should be~ it should be~"
Hou Jiuming still kept a smile on his face, but he was sneering in his heart, "Bullying others is the fault of me, haha..."
Resisting his expression from distorting, he took out a piece of broken silver of about one tael from his underwear pocket, placed it in front of Li, and said grandly, "Boss Li and the brothers will be invited to tea."
Seeing Hou Jiuming take out a piece of silver without any resistance, Boss Li felt proud and said, "Boss Hou, let's be open!" As soon as he finished speaking, the younger brothers all agreed in unison.
"Boss Hou is open and bright!"
After getting what they wanted, a group of people didn't stay long. They pushed aside the onlookers arrogantly and left in a swaggering way, heading to the next store.
Watching the group of people leaving, Hou Jiuming's eyes flashed with a cold light, and then he walked back into the store as if nothing had happened.
The nearest market location given by Wang Jinzhen is half a month away from him, and it does not open every day, but only every six months.
The last time I opened it was just a few days ago. Now I can't make it in time, so I can only wait for the next time.
As for why it is only opened once every six months, according to Wang Jinzhen, it is because the things a cultivator needs are very precious and they usually have no time to use them themselves, so they are willing to sell them.
That is to say, a big force, with many people and strength, can collect so many resources. If you don't use them, you can exchange them for spiritual stones.
…………
In the early hours of the night, Hou Jiuming finished his practice and put on a black suit that he had secretly prepared.
What happened during the day made him extremely angry.
If I don't do something, I feel like I won't be able to sleep well tonight.
Soon, I put on my night clothes and came downstairs quietly. Just as I was about to go out, I suddenly heard footsteps outside the wall.
I thought it was a drunk guy passing by, but unexpectedly, the sound stopped at the wall of my house.
Soon, there was a low shout, followed by a series of sounds of feet tapping on the wall.
Then, Hou Jiuming saw a man also wearing night clothes quickly climb over the wall and enter the yard.
In such a situation, he felt like thunder was rolling from the sky.
"When you go out and do bad things, you meet your peers, and you still end up at your own home. Isn't this too speechless?" He stood in the dark and shook his head, preparing to take down the man.
But at this moment, the man looked around and happened to see him, and immediately said with an unkind expression,
"who are you?"
Fortunately, the man in black didn't speak. As soon as he spoke, Hou Jiuming recognized him immediately.
"Boss Li?"
"Who are you?" Boss Li's heart skipped a beat when someone called him by name, "What's the situation? It's okay to meet a colleague during a robbery. How come the other party still knows me?"
At this moment, a very familiar voice suddenly came from the other side, but I couldn't remember who it was.
"It's really effortless to get through the hard work of finding nowhere. I haven't even gone to find you yet, and you've already arrived at my door by yourself!"
"It's you, the teahouse owner!" After hearing Hou Jiuming's words, Boss Li suddenly realized who he was across from him, but then he felt an unpleasant feeling.
"He said he wanted to find me. Why did he want to find me? Also, what's going on with the black clothes?" Thoughts flashed through his mind, trying to figure out this matter.
But Hou Jiuming would give him a chance.
"Not bad!" After replying disdainfully, with the blessing of light body technique, the figure appeared in front of Boss Li like a ghost.
"You know martial arts..." Under Boss Li's horrified gaze, Hou Jiuming grabbed his neck with one hand and lifted him off the ground.
"Spare... spare my life..." The vital part of his neck was stuck. Boss Li's face turned red quickly and he began to speak intermittently.
"Why did you come to my house?" This chapter has been completed!
