Invincible Soul Empe Chapter 334: The Furious Huan Yuehua

Chapter 334: Chapter 334: The Furious Huan Yuehua

Huan Yuehua was full of confidence in Xi Jianwei’s dical skills, believing that with him on the case, the goals for their trip to Thunder Valley would surely be t.

However, to her surprise, Xi Jianwei’s face was full of guilt as he bowed. "Sect Master, I have failed to et your expectations." He finished with a long sigh and turned his head away.

Huan Yuehua was slightly taken aback. "The Thunder Valley Sect Master’s wife’s illness must be extrely difficult to treat," she said. "It’s unexpected that even Elder Xi, a seventh-level Pill King, couldn’t personally find a cure."

Hearing this, Xi Jianwei sighed again. "If it were truly because the illness was peculiar and beyond my capabilities, I would have nothing to say. But to my dismay, I misjudged the situation and failed to see that the Sect Master’s wife was afflicted by a Gu-worm. In the end, a fifth-level Pill King was the one who diagnosed and cured her. How shaful! Truly shaful!"

Huan Yuehua was even more surprised. A re fifth-level Pill King succeeded? Does that an Xi Jianwei was actually defeated by a fifth-level Pill King?

Nevertheless, to preserve Xi Jianwei’s dignity, Huan Yuehua did not state this outright. Instead, she asked curiously, "Elder Xi, which sect or clan does this fifth-level Pill King hail from?"

Xi Jianwei replied, "The lad is called Chen Qingye. He owns that new Dan Refining Shop in Illusory Moon City. With the Sect Master managing countless affairs, you might not be aware of it, but that boy is audacious enough to compete with our Huanyue Sect for the elixir market!"

Upon hearing this, Huan Yuehua beca furious. Daring to compete with the Huanyue Sect for the market was like snatching food from the jaws of a tiger.

Seeing her change in expression, Xi Jianwei asked, puzzled, "Sect Master, that boy’s Dan Refining Shop isn’t large. We could easily crush it. Why are you so angry?"

Huan Yuehua snorted coldly. "Anyone who dares to oppose the Huanyue Sect must be killed as a warning to others.

"Moreover, the primary reason I sent you to Thunder Valley was to get an opportunity to observe the Wordless Jade Bi—and steal it."

Xi Jianwei was aghast. "What?" he exclaid. "I understand observing the Wordless Jade Bi, but why steal it? Rember, Thunder Valley is a three-star sect, just like us. If the Wordless Jade Bi is stolen, they will be furious. If they attack our Huanyue Sect, it would be a colossal blow, with losses far outweighing any gains!"

Huan Yuehua sneered. "Rest assured, I have already thought of that. I have my own ways to spirit away the Wordless Jade Bi without Thunder Valley ever noticing. Taking it a step further, even if they were to discover it, our Huanyue Sect’s powerful backing could easily fend off their fury."

Xi Jianwei nodded thoughtfully.

Huan Yuehua sighed. It seed they would have to find another opportunity to get into Thunder Valley and approach the Wordless Jade Bi.

The top priority now is to eliminate that Chen Qingye, the one who dares oppose the Huanyue Sect and steal the elixir market!

With this in mind, Huan Yuehua said to Xi Jianwei, "Elder Xi, what do you think we should do about this Chen Qingye?"

Xi Jianwei nodded. "That kid is still in Thunder Valley. Now is the best ti to strike at his Dan Refining Shop!"

Xi Jianwei and Huan Yuehua conspired for a while before Xi Jianwei took his leave to make the arrangents.

「anwhile, in Illusory Moon City」

Under Qin Yue’s preparations, Ye Qingchen’s exclusive Dan Refining Shop, Chen Yue Pavilion, had officially opened for business.

Although neither Ye Qingchen nor Qin Yue was currently present, the shop’s manager, Ma Chunsheng, had been personally appointed by Qin Zhantian.

Having been the manager at the Rising Sun Pavilion for many years, Ma Chunsheng was as shrewd in the ways of business as they co.

Although Chen Yue Pavilion had only recently opened, it had already gained a modest reputation in Illusory Moon City, thanks to the foundation laid by the Rising Sun Pavilion.

Recently, however, Ma Chunsheng had a nagging feeling that sothing was wrong. The business at Chen Yue Pavilion had been just too good.

The crowds coming to purchase elixirs were endless. Whether it was sought-after elixirs or the usually less popular Spirit Pills, as soon as they were placed on the shelves, they were quickly bought up!

Since Ye Qingchen was not around, their stock of Spirit Pills was not nearly enough to keep up with sales. Left with no choice, Ma Chunsheng had to source more from the Rising Sun Pavilion. He also notified the alchemists there to work overti on refining more, just to barely keep up with demand.

A prosperous business is the goal of any shop, and booming sales should be a good thing. However, Ma Chunsheng’s years of experience told him there was definitely a problem.

Although the Spirit Pills refined by Ye Qingchen were of high quality and the grand opening discounts were substantial, Chen Yue Pavilion had only just established itself in Illusory Moon City and was not particularly well-known among the residents. Yet, judging by the current sales volu, it was far surpassing the other elixir shops in the city. Even the Huanyue Sect’s own dicine Pavilion couldn’t compare!

Attracting so custors with good prices and high-quality Spirit Pills is one thing, but achieving this level of success is simply impossible!

There’s an old saying: when things are this abnormal, sothing strange is afoot. Sensing the anomaly, Ma Chunsheng ordered the shop assistants to discreetly investigate the backgrounds of these custors.

Compared to the wary Ma Chunsheng, the shop assistants were overjoyed at the situation. These assistants were all capable hands from the Rising Sun Pavilion, and so had even spent significant ti in its various branches, but none had ever seen business as booming as it was at Chen Yue Pavilion.

After all, good business ant higher commissions. Which of them wasn’t out here trying to earn Spirit Stones, hoping to one day rise from their station and beco a phoenix?

So when Ma Chunsheng instructed them to gather information about the custors, most didn’t take it seriously. So even gossiped among themselves, saying he was being overly cautious.

But as the manager of Chen Yue Pavilion, Ma Chunsheng’s orders could not be openly defied, so the assistants could only perform the task perfunctorily.

What they didn’t expect, however, was that the custors seed very cooperative. With just a few casual questions, the custors revealed the whole story.
