Wang Xiaoqiang went to a shop selling buns and bought two to eat, then started to stroll on the street.

It was only when buying the buns that he realized, the value of this Golden Silk was quite high. He offered a Golden Silk to the bun shop owner, who gave him ten Silver and Silk and forty-eight Bronze and Silk as change, making the bun's price clear—a bun for a Bronze and Silk, two buns for two Bronze and Silk.

Moreover, Wang Xiaoqiang also figured out the currency exchange rate.

One Golden Silk is equivalent to ten Silver and Silk, and one Silver and Silk is equivalent to fifty Bronze and Silk.

After finishing the buns, he went to the Pill Shop to buy Qi Gathering Pills. Wang Xiaoqiang didn't spend all the Golden Silk, because he still needed to buy a hairpin for Fairy Zixia.

He just took out a thousand Golden Silk, and as a result, for a thousand Golden Silk, the shop owner only took out two hundred Qi Gathering Pills. Wang Xiaoqiang was surprised, "Boss, these Qi Gathering Pills are too expensive, I'm not buying them."

"What? This is expensive? Two hundred Qi Gathering Pills should last you half a year, how is it expensive?"

After thinking about it, Wang Xiaoqiang agreed. For an ordinary Immortal Emperor, two hundred Qi Gathering Pills indeed require half a year or even longer to refine and transform, but for him, it's just a moment's work, so he found it expensive.

"Forget it, I'll look around some more." Holding to the principle of comparing three shops before buying, Wang Xiaoqiang decided to check out other Pill Shops.

However, that shop owner disagreed, "Hey, how can you be like this? I've already taken out the pills, and you're not buying them. Once the pills are taken out, the efficacy diminishes, who would I sell them to afterwards? No way, whether you buy or not, you have to buy them today."

"Forcing me to buy, huh?" Wang Xiaoqiang glared.

Businessmen are all sharp-eyed, the shop owner noticed Wang Xiaoqiang was an outsider the moment he entered, and from the way he bought things, it was clear he was not only an outsider, but possibly a newcomer just arrived in the Biluo Realm from another lower plane. Such newcomers, if you don't extort them, you're missing out,

Besides, Wang Xiaoqiang was only in the Immortal Emperor Single Qi Realm, while the shop owner's three sons were all experts above the Immortal Emperor Five Qi Realm, so they were not afraid even if it came to blows.

Therefore, a Qi Gathering Pill normally priced at twenty Golden Silk, he demanded an extra thirty Golden Silk, directly selling it at the exorbitant price of fifty Golden Silk each.

Early in the morning, with no other customers in the shop, seeing Wang Xiaoqiang glaring, the shop owner glared even bigger, pointing at Wang Xiaoqiang and threatening, "What's wrong with forcing you to buy? If you hadn't come to buy, I wouldn't force you. Hand over the Golden Silk, take the pills, and scram, or you'll leave empty-handed."

"Oh, you're threatening me, huh...?" Wang Xiaoqiang coldly chuckled at the shop owner. At that moment, fury rose in his heart, the anger transforming into raging waves urging the Sword of Furious Fiend, the power of the "Raging Waves Swordfall" surged even more.

Although the shop owner was just in the Immortal King Realm cultivation, considering Wang Xiaoqiang's temper, he would have ended it with a single strike, but he thought it would alert the King of Eastern Mountain. If the Eastern Mountain King came, he wouldn't even have a chance to buy the hairpin for Fairy Zixia, so he held back for now.

"So what if I threaten you? You're an outsider who doesn't understand the rules, do you think you can come and go as you please in my shop..." The shop owner was determined to fleece Wang Xiaoqiang today. He wouldn't stop until he got his way.

Although his three sons weren't in the shop now, several nearby shop owners were familiar with him, and they kept each other informed. If Wang Xiaoqiang dared to make a move, one shout would call forth a group of Immortal Emperor level experts. There's even a shop owner's son who's a Daluo Golden Immortal.

As the situation stalemated, a radiant figure cheerfully skipped into the shop, followed by a crisp, sweet female voice, "Dad, I'm back..."

"Feng'er, you're back..." The shop owner immediately changed his expression upon seeing his daughter Feng'er return, transforming from sinister and conniving to a kindly demeanor, softly asking, "What did you buy shopping today?"

"Bought a Golden Hairpin." The young girl Feng'er lifted the jewelry box in her hand, "Dad, the hairpin is butterfly-shaped and looks lovely. Dad, why don't I wear it for you to see..."

"Not now, Dad's doing business..." The shop owner gestured to his daughter to go inside, signaling her to wait till evening, "Dad will have a good look at our daughter's butterfly hairpin tonight..."

"Okay," young Feng'er replied cheerfully, preparing to go inside,

but unexpectedly, Wang Xiaoqiang reached out and grabbed her, holding her in his hand, and coldly laughed, "Don't rush in, see how your father deceives customers."

"What, what are you doing??..." Young Feng'er screamed in panic, "You, you hooligan, Daddy save me..."

The shop owner panicked seeing Wang Xiaoqiang suddenly grabbed his precious daughter, immediately pointing and cursing, "Bold lecher, how dare you lay hands on my daughter, believe it or not, I'll have you slaughtered..."

"If you dare to call for help, I'll strangle her." Wang Xiaoqiang clutched the young girl's soft neck with his left hand, feeling the silky smooth skin, it caused a ripple in his heart.

"Ah, no, don't, don't act recklessly, I won't call for help, I won't call..." The shop owner worriedly waved his hands, fearing Wang Xiaoqiang might strangle his precious daughter in anger.

"Tell me, how much does a Qi Gathering Pill sell for in your shop?" Wang Xiaoqiang turned the girl's body, using it as a shield between father and daughter, then asked Feng'er.

The shop owner tried to signal his daughter, but with Wang Xiaoqiang's figure blocking in between, Feng'er couldn't see his signs, she truthfully replied.

"It sells for twenty Golden Silk."

Wang Xiaoqiang turned away, turning back to glare at the shop owner, who looked ashamed and lowered his head.

Wang Xiaoqiang coldly laughed, asking young Feng'er, "Earlier your father sold it for fifty Golden Silk each, tell me, wasn't he deceiving me..."

With that, Wang Xiaoqiang released Feng'er's neck, allowing her to take a long deep breath and say, "Pill prices fluctuate, especially high-quality pills like Qi Gathering Pills, they're in high demand now, almost a different price each day. Three months ago, it was indeed twenty Golden Silk per pill, but I don't know the price now, this shop has always been managed by my father, the prices he gives are the real prices."

Unexpectedly, the seemingly innocent and charming young girl was able to lie effortlessly, crafting words that directly exonerated the shop owner.

At this point, Wang Xiaoqiang's anger intensified, grabbing the young girl by the neck again, "Didn't expect you to be as crafty as your father, believe it or not, I'll strangle you..."

"Ah, no, don't, it was my fault, I set a high price, I'm sorry, I'm sorry," the shop owner repeatedly waved his hands, fearing Wang Xiaoqiang might kill his precious daughter in a fit of rage..."I'll sell it to you at the original price, I won't profit from you."

With that, the shop owner immediately took out another three hundred Qi Gathering Pills, making a total of five hundred, placing them all into a large Brocade Box, and handed it over to Wang Xiaoqiang with both hands.

Wang Xiaoqiang took it, with a thought, placed it into the Sumeru Ring, then paid the full amount of Golden Silk, hesitated a bit before releasing young Feng'er, criticizing, "Truly, the upper beam isn't straight, the lower beam is crooked. Your daughter is quite pretty, it's a pity she's learned your bad ways. Better educate her well, or she'll have trouble marrying. Haha..."

Wang Xiaoqiang chuckled coldly, no longer troubling the shop owner and his daughter. On one hand, he feared causing a commotion and attracting the King of Eastern Mountain, and on the other, they didn't commit a major offense, just greed. Best to let it go.

But when he released the young girl, she glared at him fiercely with venomous eyes. Even so, Wang Xiaoqiang did not retaliate, but laughed heartily as he left.

And so Wang Xiaoqiang left, the shop owner and his daughter's eyes stayed glued to his departing figure, filled with the same greed and malice.

Before Wang Xiaoqiang even left their sight, Feng'er had already spoken, "Dad, are you going to let it go?"

"Of course not, go, call your three brothers, teach this outsider a harsh lesson, and don't forget to get back our five hundred Qi Gathering Pills." The shop owner ordered sinisterly.

"Yes." Feng'er responded and immediately took action. (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
