Huai’s Pawnshop.
Zhao Huai felt increasingly better after mastering the Sword Drawing Skill.
He glanced towards the shop entrance and business was still slow.
He couldn’t help but think about the prospect of reaching the Initiation Stage.
He had been in possession of the Initiation Pill for a few days now, and the only reason he had not immediately consumed it to achieve a breakthrough was because he was waiting for the right opportunity.
However, this breakthrough needed preparation. It was best to adjust both the physical and spiritual states to their peak and then use panacea for assistance.
Zhao Huai estimated that it would be time for his breakthrough when the medicinal herbs prepared by the Madam were ready in a few days.
With the medicinal herbs as catalysts and in a secluded and peaceful location, a breakthrough aided by the Initiation Pill would be more reliable.
After all, there was only one Initiation Pill, which could not be wasted. So, all factors needed to be carefully considered.
Feeling idle, Zhao Huai took out a sheet of aged yellow talisman paper from the black ring, dipped his brush in ink, and began to experiment with new talisman.
He had already mastered several fundamental talismans like the Fire Thunder Talisman and the Five Elements Talisman.
He could draw them single-handedly and without the need for paper or pencil. The Water Thunder Talisman and the Earth Suppressing Thunder Talisman used to suppress the demonic qi within Li Yanqing were examples of this.
However, this practice required quite a bit of proficiency and demanded high-quality True Qi.
Drawing talismans with paper and a brush conserved True Qi.
You could draw as many as you want in advance, provided you had enough materials.
Of course, drawing talismans directly also had its advantages in terms of convenience and adaptability.
However, Zhao Huai once read about a more potent method in the Three Thousand Thunderbolt Technique.
But, this was a more advanced method.
There were also theories that different cultivators with different constitutions used different types of talisman.
As Zhao Huai was engrossed in drawing talisman, customers finally arrived at the door.
“Is anyone there? Shopkeeper?”
A female voice asked.
Zhao Huai stopped his task and looked up to answer:
“Of course there is, do you wish to pawn or sell something?”
Selling meant bringing valuable items to pawn in exchange for money. Those items usually included treasures, land deeds, house deeds, etc.
Pawning, on the other hand, meant temporarily putting valuable items in the pawnshop as collateral for a loan to tide over urgent needs. The belongings could be reclaimed once the owners had the funds.
There was another more direct way — borrowing money though with high-interest rates.
Many pawnshops made profits by providing high-interest loans.
“Neither, I am here to change some money.”
A young woman walked into the shop.
Only then did Zhao Huai get a chance to look at her face and attire.
The woman, dressed in a blue long skirt, had her silky hair draped over her shoulders and sported a fragrant sachet at her waist. She was remarkably tall and the slits in her skirt revealed a pair of slender and fair legs.
Her eyes were beautiful and bright, comparable to autumn water. However, the glance in her eyes was rather cold.
There was a flowing imprint at the center of her eyebrows.
The woman had a strong aura every time she moved. The aura stemmed from her strength.
Zhao Huai nearly concluded at first glance.
The woman must be a cultivator.
Both her complexion and demeanor were beyond comparison with ordinary people.
Under the sensing of [Stable Taoist Mind], he found that the surrounding spiritual qi was slowly flowing towards her.
She is not just any cultivator, she is a formidable one.
Her cultivation is likely to be higher than his. Considering her youth, it could be concluded that she is a disciple of an Immortal Cultivation Sect.
Zhao Huai concluded in his heart that the woman’s cultivation should be at the Initiation Stage.
The girl in the green skirt seemed slightly surprised by Zhao Huai’s age but quickly regained her composure.
She lightly flicked her hand and brought out several radiant spiritual stones, placing them on the counter.
Zhao Huai took the spiritual stones, glanced at them, and was slightly surprised.
The quality of these spiritual stones was exceptional, and they were filled with an abundance of spiritual qi, almost in a misty state. They were undoubtedly not inferior spiritual stones.
They were genuine superior spiritual stones.
One superior spiritual stone could be exchanged for one thousand taels of silver.
“Alright, please wait for a moment.”
Zhao Huai didn’t hesitate to take a few high-denomination silver notes from the box behind him and immediately handed them over to her.
The girl in the green skirt accepted the silver notes and said, smiling faintly: “Shopkeeper, do you know where the dog meat shop is around here? I want to buy some dog blood.”
“Dog meat shop? Continue down this street, and it will be in the third alley at the end,” Zhao Huai replied, pointing out through the door.
“Thanks, shopkeeper.”
“Looking at you, it’s clear that you are not an ordinary person. You must be a disciple of a Sect. It’s been a while since I saw someone of your caliber,” Zhao Huai said with a smile.
Meeting a formidable cultivator after a long time, he naturally wanted to curry favor and try to acquire some valuable information.
Just as the girl was about to turn around and leave, she heard Zhao Huai’s words, and her expression remained unchanged. She smiled and replied:
“Indeed.”
Most disciples of a Sect were arrogant and indifferent to ordinary mortals. This girl, however, was different.
She was relatively approachable.
“Why do you need dog blood?” Zhao Huai asked, puzzled.
The woman in the green dress stared at Zhao Huai and explained slowly: “Naturally, it’s for exorcising demons. Recently, the demons have reemerged, wreaking havoc everywhere. The Sect sent us disciples down from the mountain to exterminate these demons one by one.”
Acting as though he understood, Zhao Huai said, “I see, that truly is a good deed.”
“Shopkeeper, you meet many people in your business. Have you sensed any movements from the demons?” asked the woman in the green dress, seemingly gaining information as well. fre ewebno vel.com
After pondering for a moment, Zhao Huai replied, “Jinzhou seems safe. Is there any activity in the vicinity regarding demons?”
The woman in the green dress nodded, “A powerful demon appeared in Jingyang Town, causing many deaths. Many people were abducted by the demon. The way they died was pitiful.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Huai was somewhat surprised.
“Jingyang Town? Isn’t that near Jinzhou?”
“Yes. So it should be wandering around somewhere near Jinzhou,” the woman in the green skirt replied, furrowing her brow.
“If you sense anything, you must inform the officials. They will contact the
Sect, which will then send people. We’ll take action at that time.”
Having heard the woman’s instructions, Zhao Huai nodded and complimented. “Ah, it’s good you guys are taking action. This demon has truly killed many.”
Looking at the back of the woman in the green skirt receding away, Zhao Huai couldn’t help but wonder.
The incident in Jingyang Town was no small matter.
A town usually has about two thousand people, but it was uncertain how many had perished.
The fact that disciples of the Initiation Stage were dispatched implied the issue was serious, as normally the cultivators at the Initiation Stage were pivotal to the Sect and wouldn’t be sent out casually. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝙤𝙫𝒆𝓵.𝒄𝙤𝒎
It seemed Yan Jing spoke the truth.
Recently, he really should not venture out.
But he couldn’t fathom why the demons had suddenly become so rampant?
Could it be related to the four demons he encountered last time?
