Ye Futian rode on Baize’s back and pranced down the street. Baize Demonic Beast appeared to be following Ye Futian’s instruction to move at a relatively slow pace.
Ye Futian himself sat in a reclining position and seemed to be at ease. Some people tried to use the divine consciousness to see through his metal mask. However, a thick mist obscured Ye Futian’s face under the mask, and no one could get a clear view. Ye Futian glanced over the people who attempted to make out his face with their divine consciousness. One of them screeched with pain as his eyes began to bleed.

Master, have you thought it through?
A voice came from afar at this moment. Tang Chen and the others popped up on the street and spoke to Ye Futian.

Fck off!
Ye Futian’s voice was hoarse. Tang Chen was so embarrassed that his face turned ashen. Ye Futian humiliated him in public and showed no respect for him at all.
Tang Chen was a prominent cultivator. In addition to that, no one had ever dared to be so rude and insolent to a disciple of Grandmaster Tianbao of the Tianyi Pavilion. Tang Chen invited Ye Futian to visit the Tianyi Pavilion, yet Ye Futian cursed him.
The onlookers were astounded that Ye Futian told Tang Chen to fck off. They whispered to each other in dismay.
People who were not caught up in the incident asked around about Ye Futian’s identity. They instantly learned that he was the Alchemy Grandmaster who came to Ninth Street searching for the Phoenix’s Marrow of ten thousand years. What an overbearing man he must be for telling Tang Chen to get lost.
They wondered how Tang Chen would react.
Tang Chen didn’t start a fight right away. Instead, he stepped forward and followed Baize from behind. Other people who came from the Tianyi Pavilion joined him as well.
Baize Demonic Beast continued sauntering down the street. More and more people gathered on the street to watch the drama unfold. With intense curiosity, they stared at Ye Futian, who was wearing the metal mask. Who on earth was this mysterious master?
Ye Futian closed his eyes in repose as though he was letting Baize stroll aimlessly. While in fact, his divine consciousness spread over an enormous distance and was keeping a close eye on the situation on Ninth Street. As for Tang Chen and the others, Ye Futian wasn’t intimidated by them at all. He was waiting for them to make the first move.
How could he rise to fame in the Giant Gods City if he didn’t stir up big trouble? To attract the attention of the ancient royal family of Duan, he had to be a famous and noteworthy figure on Ninth Street first.
Ye Futian stopped in front of a building on the left side of the street. Although many cultivators were in the building, Ye Futian forced in his divine consciousness and inspected the situation inside. Upon detecting Ye Futian’s divine consciousness, one of the cultivators frowned and said,
Can we help you, sir?

Ye Futian raised his hand and threw a porcelain bottle at them. The bottle landed perfectly on the table in front of the person who spoke. Then, Ye Futian said to him,
Give me that Fiery Dragon Plant.

The person unplugged the porcelain bottle, took a brief look, and put the cork back immediately. He took out a blazing red plant and said to Ye Futian,
Please take it, sir.

Before his voice faded, the blazing red Fiery Dragon Plant flew toward Ye Futian, who was waiting outside. Ye Futian swept it in with his sleeve in a flash. Both of them moved so fast and finished the transaction before many people realized what happened.

So efficient…

A lot of spectators were speechless with astonishment. The person in the shop didn’t even bargain for such a valuable item. The red Fiery Dragon Plant was extremely precious. Ye Futian must have great confidence in his pills since he used them to trade for the plant. The person in the shop wouldn’t accept the payment with alacrity if it were not a good deal.
It showed how free-handed Ye Futian was. No wonder he was an Alchemy Grandmaster. This kind of liberality put many Renhuangs to shame.
Nevertheless, ordinary Renhuangs were not comparable with an Alchemy Grandmaster anyway. An Alchemy Grandmaster could make better and more valuable pills with the same ingredients. Common cultivators naturally had to be more conscious of the balance between cost and benefit.
Ye Futian paid no attention to the crowd’s amazement. He kept riding down the street and purchased more valuable herbs along the way. All of them were rare and costly ingredients for alchemy.
He seemed to have an inexhaustible supply of pills for trading. No one knew how many pills he was carrying with him. The onlookers exclaimed at his deep pockets. Many of them were tempted to jump on him.
In fact, several Renhuangs had had their eyes fixed on Ye Futian. They blended in the crowd and followed Ye Futian the whole time. Ye Futian appeared to be carrying countless treasures. They would strike it rich if they managed to rob him successfully.
Although they knew that they would benefit much more by befriending this Alchemy Grandmaster, they had no connection with Ye Futian and couldn’t possibly profit off him in that way. As a matter of course, they started to have other wicked ideas.
Furthermore, from what they could see, Ye Futian seemed to be an outsider who had no one to rely on here. He also offended the Tianyi Pavilion, which made him a good target.
Soon, a cluster of buildings came into view ahead of them. The name
Tianyi Pavilion
was carved on the gate outside.
It was the biggest trading center on Ninth Street.
Tang Chen didn’t expect to follow Ye Futian all the way here. What on earth did Ye Futian want to do?
At this point, Baize Demonic Beast stopped, turned around slowly, and began to walk back as though he didn’t intend to visit the biggest trading center on Ninth Street.
While everyone was staring at Ye Futian, one person stepped forward. It was Tang Chen. He blocked Ye Futian’s way and said,
Master, since you are here, why don’t you spend some time inside? There is no rush for you to leave.

Several men also stepped out in other directions, following Tang Chen’s lead.
The crowd recognized that two of them were well-known Renhuangs on Ninth Street.
The middle-aged man who dressed in black was called Ku Mu. The younger Renhuang was an offspring of a prominent family on Ninth Street. Both of them had made a name for themselves. By stepping forward at this moment, they seemed to be siding with Tang Chen as if they had communicated with him via voice transmission.

I heard that the master has extraordinary skills in alchemy, and I would like to see it for myself. I wonder if the master can grant my wish,
the younger man said. He was at the peak of the middle-level Renhuang Plane and had an imperious bearing. Ku Mu, a seventh-order high-level Renhuang, was even more powerful.
Ye Futian was still riding on the back of Baize Demonic Beast, ambling along the street. Baize Demonic Beast became hesitant when he sensed the forceful energy emanated from the people ahead. Ye Futian patted him gently and said,
Keep moving.

Baize Demonic Beast followed his instruction and continued to walk. Tang Chen stared at Ye Futian and said,
Master, you are already at the gate. It’s better if you can honor us with your visit.

While speaking, he released an invisible energy current of the Great Path to block Ye Futian’s path.
Ye Futian still paid him no heed. An invisible energy shield protected Baize’s body. He pressed ahead without being affected by Tang Chen’s pressure.

What a pretentious buffoon! I want to see your face under the mask!
The young Renhuang took a step forward and raised his hand to grab Ye Futian’s mask. A giant, hand-shaped shadow bore down upon Ye Futian’s head.
Buzz! The invisible energy currents of the Great Path flowed around Ye Futian’s body, sealed off the area, and blocked the giant hand.
At this moment, Tang Chen and Ku Mu also took action and moved toward Ye Futian.
Ku Mu outstretched his arm and flapped his sleeve. Right away, innumerable rotten stems and vines twined around the Great Path of Space and closed off the area Ye Futian was in. Tang Chen charged forward and shot a Flame of the Way at Ye Futian.
Ye Futian emitted a beam of golden divine light from his body. It turned into a light screen which shielded him from the incoming attacks.
All three cultivators frowned slightly and stared at Ye Futian. They didn’t expect Ye Futian to be so tough.
Buzz!
The golden light screen blazed with a tinge of red and spewed a terrifying wave of fire.

Master, we invited you with good intention. Why do we have to come to blows?
Tang Chen sensed the wave of fire and hurried to call a truce.
The ferocious Flames of the Way engulfed the area and charged at the three cultivators. They were petrified and desperate to retreat. However, Ye Futian lifted his hand and locked them in place with the Great Path of Space. They couldn’t move a muscle.

Master, please show some mercy.
Tang Chen’s face was deathly pale.
The invisible hand immobilized them as the Flames of the Way leaping toward them.

Stop it.

A stern voice came out of the Tianyi Pavilion, but Ye Futian ignored it completely. The brilliant divine light swept across the area, and the Flames of the Way devoured the three cultivators. With an ear-piercing shriek, they were annihilated under everyone’s watch.
Bang… Bang… Bang… Several streams of powerful energy rushed out of the Tianyi Pavilion.

How audacious!
a voice boomed as if it carried the authority of heaven. A fierce face appeared in the void.
Ye Futian raised his head to take a glance. Then, his body transformed into a ray of light that streamed away through the void.
The entire Ninth Street trembled as the fierce face gave a bellow of rage. A burst of terrifying energy chased after Ye Futian.
However, the ray of light that Ye Futian transfigured into dashed all the way back to the Ninth Inn in a flash. Ye Futian landed in the courtyard and launched his counterattack while the terrifying energy thrusting down from above.
Bang. The two types of energy came into collision in midair. Someone in the inn declared,
Don’t break the rule.

Anyone who entered the Ninth Inn was protected by the inn. No one was allowed to attack the guests.
The frosty face appeared in the sky above and glared at Ye Futian.
Ye Futian remained calm and expressionless. He darted a casual look at the sky.

You murdered the disciples of the Tianyi Pavilion in broad daylight. You’re so out of line,
the face spoke. He was the Chief Elder of the Tianyi Pavilion and a formidable ninth-order Renhuang.

Are you blind?
Ye Futian shot a disdainful glance at the face. The three cultivators were going to kill him. He might be trapped in the Tianyi Pavilion forever without any hope to make it back if he didn’t fight back. Ye Futian would never show any mercy to people who bore malicious intent against him!
