"A month ago, Senior Chen came to my Medicine King Palace..." said Shopkeeper Chen.
"Wait, is this Senior Chen you are talking about Chen Changsheng?" Shen Feihong asked.
"That's right, it's Senior Chen Changsheng... He ordered high-level spiritual medicine worth 50,000 spirit stones from my Medicine King Palace in the name of Senior Gu Yang. Both parties agreed to deliver the medicine one month later, which was yesterday..." said Shopkeeper Chen.
"Wait a minute, Chen Changsheng ordered high-level spiritual medicine worth 50,000 spirit stones in my name? Why? Do you believe everything he says? 50,000 spirit stones, what do I need so many spiritual medicines for? I'm not an alchemist!" Gu Yang interrupted.
"Senior Chen said that Master Gu Yang has invited a second-level alchemist to your home to refine elixirs specifically for you..." said Shopkeeper Chen.
"Whatever he says is the truth? Why do you believe everything?" Gu Yang said speechlessly.
"Master Gu Yang, the relationship between you and Senior Chen Changsheng is known to most people in Sanyang City. He is a Foundation Establishment Master and a subordinate of yours. His status and position are evident. Most importantly, he holds your identity token, and you are seriously injured in your cave..."
"It makes sense no matter how you look at it. Even if we go to your cave to verify it, we can't get in!" Shopkeeper Chen frowned.
"What about your side? What's the situation?" Gu Yang looked at Manager Wan and asked.
"The situation is similar to Old Chen's. Senior Chen Changsheng also placed the order personally and made the required requirements. He customized two top-grade spiritual weapons and came to pick up the goods yesterday!" said Manager Wan.
"I remember that your rule is that money is exchanged for goods. Why didn't you ask the other party to hand over the spirit stones on the spot this time?" Shen Feihong frowned.
"This... When Senior Chen placed the order, he repeatedly told us to keep it secret. He also said that Master Gu Yang was seriously injured and recovering, and that we couldn't be disturbed. He also left his identity token and asked us to go to his cave today to get the spirit stones..."
"Senior Chen Changsheng, he is a foundation-building cultivator from your Sanyang City. The reason we trust him is actually because we believe in your Sanyang City..." Shopkeeper Wan hesitated for a moment and explained.
"Old Wan is right. The reason we believe in Chen Changsheng is because he is a foundation-building cultivator from your Sanyang City, and he also carries your identity token, Master Gu Yang. How could we not believe him?" Shopkeeper Chen followed.
"You two, I can tell you very clearly that you have been deceived. I have never asked Chen Changsheng to order any spiritual medicine or spiritual weapon, and there is no second-level alchemist in my cave!" Gu Yang said solemnly.
"Master Gu Yang, what do you mean by this? Are you planning on denying your guilt? Fine, then find Chen Changsheng and we'll confront him on the spot!"
Suddenly, Shopkeeper Chen became furious.
"Yes, you find Chen Changsheng and confront him on the spot. If it wasn't Master Gu Yang who ordered you to do so, then let Chen Changsheng return our elixirs and spiritual weapons. At most, we'll suffer a little loss, but as long as the goods are still there, it's fine!" Shopkeeper Wan followed.
Shopkeeper Chen’s elixir is fine. As long as he gets it back, he can continue selling it without any delay.
Although his spiritual weapon can be sold, the price is higher after all because it is customized. If he wants to sell it to others, the price will inevitably drop to a certain extent.
However, as long as he can recover most of the losses, Manager Wan can still afford it.
"Chen Changsheng ran away. Where do you want me to find him?"
"Don't talk about you guys, actually, my third brother and I are also looking for him!" Gu Yang was really annoyed...
This Chen Changsheng could really cause him trouble...
One Third Brother wasn't enough, now there were also the Medicine King Hall and the Weapon Refining Pavilion...
The two families together have almost 100,000 spirit stones!
This Chen Changsheng is really too bold. He dares to swallow anything. He is only in the early stage of foundation building, and he is not afraid of choking to death!
"What? Ran away?"
"Master Gu Yang, isn't it too coincidental that he ran away?" Shopkeeper Chen said with a gloomy expression.
"Yeah, it's such a coincidence that he ran away? He ran away as soon as we talked about confrontation?" Manager Wan said angrily.
After such a huge mistake, even if he could recover the losses, his superiors might not let him continue to serve as the head of the Weapon Refining Pavilion...
"You two, he really ran away. My eighth apprentice brother and I have been looking for him since yesterday evening, and we've been looking for him until now..."
"It seems that Chen Changsheng had been planning to escape a month ago. Before escaping, he wanted to make a fortune and put the blame on my eighth junior brother!"
Shen Feihong looked at Gu Yang with pity...
The more I watch, the more I feel that Gu Yang is an idiot...
The others were brothers. To subdue those foundation-building followers, they used both kindness and force. If they were asked to go east, they wouldn't dare to go west. If they were asked to kill chickens, they wouldn't dare to catch fish...
This guy was in such a bad situation, not only was he played around by a Foundation Establishment follower, but he was also cheated out of 100,000 spirit stones...
One hundred thousand spirit stones!
Damn, what’s wrong with Chen Changsheng’s head?
Did he get the 60,000 spirit stones he spent at the auction earlier by cheating and deceiving others in this way?
Thinking of the items at the auction, plus these 100,000 spirit stones...
Shen Feihong's breathing became rapid...
How much wealth does Chen Changsheng have now?
The known things are as much as 160,000 spirit stones, plus the other treasures he has on him?
Two hundred thousand?
With such a large amount of spirit stones, even the master would be tempted!
"Master Shen, we don't care about these. We only know that Chen Changsheng represents your Sanyang City, and the identity token he holds also represents Master Guyang. The spiritual medicine and spiritual weapons have also been accepted. We only want the spiritual stones!" Boss Chen said lightly.
What does it mean that Chen Changsheng is a swindler or not?
What does it have to do with him?
"Old Chen is right. We only want spirit stones. Other things are not our responsibility!" Manager Wan nodded.
At this time, no matter what, he and Manager Chen must be on the same front!
"It's useless for you to say these now. Come with me to Sanyang Palace!" Shen Feihong said lightly.
"What are you going to...what are you going to do at Sanyang Palace?"
Suddenly, Shopkeeper Chen and Shopkeeper Wan looked at each other, their calves trembling...
Where is Sanyang Temple?
That is the place where Patriarch Sanyang holds meetings. Under normal circumstances, except for Patriarch Sanyang’s twelve disciples, other foundation-building cultivators are not qualified to enter without being summoned!
"One hundred thousand spirit stones is not a small number, and the defection of a foundation-building cultivator is also a big deal. I can only go to my master for a decision!" Shen Feihong said.
"This... isn't necessary..." Shopkeeper Wan said awkwardly.
Sanyang Patriarch?
How dare he, a Qi-cultivating cultivator, ask Patriarch Sanyang for spirit stones?
Do you really think that Patriarch Sanyang is a good man?
Shopkeeper Chen also had a bitter look on his face...
It's over now!
Asking for spirit stones from the Three Yang Patriarch is no different from seeking death, but if I just go back like this, it would be no different from being dead...
This... this is death anyway, what sin did I commit in my previous life...
