Versatile Sword Cultivator

Chapter 87 – The struggle between good and evil lasts a lifetime

"Thank you, Senior, for saving my life. I, Ji Tongyin, am eternally grateful for your kindness."

At this moment, the princess realized she had been saved and quickly stepped forward to bow respectfully to Leng Feiyan's soul.

Leng Feiyan glanced at her without saying a word, then gave Lin Jichen a meaningful look before leaving.

Lin Jichen's forehead was sweating. He hoped his master wouldn't misunderstand; he didn't even know this woman! He was innocent!

Seeing that Leng Feiyan ignored her, Ji Tongyin didn't show any sign of displeasure.

Super experts usually had their own temperaments, especially when the other party had saved her life.

As Leng Feiyan left, Ji Tongyin walked towards Lin Jichen.

She noticed Lin Jichen was wearing the Tianyan Sword Sect's attire and had called that fairy-like woman "Master."

Ji Tongyin quickly deduced that the person who had just saved her was likely the Sect Master of Tianyan Sword Sect, Leng Feiyan.

This person had actually become Leng Feiyan's disciple!

Thinking of this, Ji Tongyin's attitude became even more respectful.

"Thank you, Young Master, for your assistance. The Tianyan Sword Sect's kindness will never be forgotten by Tongyin. Our Hidden Dragon Royal Family is deeply grateful."

Lin Jichen thought to himself, what's the use of saying so many polite words? What he wanted was a reward.

[Ding! Successfully rescued the Hidden Dragon Royal Family's eldest princess! Affection Level with the eldest princess +10! Exclusive reputation in all cities of Mu Xian Province +5000 points!]

Roar!

Hearing this reward notification, Lin Jichen felt that his precious Soul Talisman hadn't been wasted.

The exclusive reputation in Mu Xian Province meant that Lin Jichen's reputation in the towns of Mu Xian Province was over five thousand points.

This reputation was only effective in the towns of Mu Xian Province, which were under the jurisdiction of the Hidden Dragon Royal Family.

If it wasn't a town in Mu Xian Province, this reputation would be useless.

This meant that as long as he had enough Spirit Stones, he could buy land in Fengqu City again!

"Eliminating demons and defending the way is our duty as righteous cultivators. Princess, you needn't take it to heart."

Lin Jichen put on a lofty air, appearing calm and composed.

With his handsome appearance and superb acting skills, he indeed had a bit of the demeanor of an immortal, a model of righteousness.

Ji Tongyin couldn't help but admire him even more. Although his cultivation was weak, he was full of righteousness, truly worthy of being Leng Feiyan's disciple.

"Young Master, you are too modest. It is a fact that you saved us."

Lin Jichen placed his small hand behind his back and said sternly, "The opposition between good and evil, fighting for life, is the eight-character motto that we righteous cultivators must adhere to!"

Ji Tongyin and her followers all showed expressions of admiration.

The opposition between good and evil, fighting for life.

Well said!

[Ding! Ji Tongyin's Affection Level towards you +5! Current Affection Level: 15 points (pleasant conversation)]

[Ding! Ji Tongyin's attitude towards you has upgraded to: Respect!]

Lin Jichen didn't expect that borrowing Uncle Ying's lines would yield such a good character effect.

Uncle Ying, love you, mwah!

"Young Master, would you be willing to accompany me back to Fengqu City to meet my father? My father will surely treat you as an honored guest," Ji Tongyin invited.

Lin Jichen thought that going back to the palace might earn him another reward, and he was about to agree.

But then he remembered Leng Feiyan's look and shivered.

The memory of Elder Tianqing wanting to take him as a disciple was still fresh in his mind. Lin Jichen didn't dare to be so blatant again.

What if Leng Feiyan was watching him?

So Lin Jichen resolutely declined.

"Thank you for your kind offer, Princess. As I said earlier, eliminating demons and defending the way is our duty as righteous cultivators, not for the sake of rewards. I still have tasks to complete, so I must take my leave. Farewell!"

After saying that, Lin Jichen didn't look back and disappeared into the forest, leaving Ji Tongyin with a small figure to admire.

The day after Ji Tongyin and her entourage left, Lin Jichen finally waited for the Cang Wolf King to respawn. He defeated it and picked up the last treasure.

[Treasure: Wind Elemental Heart]: Legend has it that this heart is formed from condensed wind elements, possessing the spirit of the wind, swift as the wind, light as a feather.

Attributes: Speed +6, Wind Resistance +4, Evasion +5%, Mana +3%.

Effect: When a Qi Refining Realm cultivator breaks through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, using this treasure can greatly enhance the cultivator's attributes.

With the materials finally gathered, Lin Jichen could return to the sect to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

But before that, he needed to make a trip to Fengqu City to check on his pharmacy.

Returning to the Commoner's Pharmacy, Lin Jichen saw a bustling scene, with the threshold almost worn out by the players.

The business was so good that it rivaled the Autumn Moon Pavilion across the street at night.

"Sorry everyone, all the potions are sold out. Please come back tomorrow."

Xiaocui said politely to everyone.

The disappointed players left, scattering in all directions.

Lin Jichen walked into the store.

Seeing him, Xiaocui quickly said, "Boss, you're back."

"Yes, how's business these past two days?" Lin Jichen asked casually.

"Boss, business has been great. We sell ten thousand bottles in just half an hour every day. As per your instructions, I close the shop after selling ten thousand bottles, not daring to sell more," Xiaocui replied obediently.

Lin Jichen nodded in satisfaction and praised, "Well done."

Then he looked at the store's revenue.

[Store: Commoner's Pharmacy]

[Owner: Lin Jichen]

[Type: Pharmacy]

[Staff: Xiaocui]

[Product: Corpse Poison Potion]

[Profit: Spirit Stones]

In just two days, he had earned nearly 180,000.

There were still hundreds of thousands of Corpse Poison Potions in the warehouse, and he could continue to rake in millions of Spirit Stones.

At this stage, there was no business more profitable than this.

"Good job, Xiaocui." Lin Jichen said as he took out ten taels of silver and handed them to Xiaocui. "This is your reward."

Xiaocui happily accepted it, thanked him, but then looked a bit worried.

"Boss, many players are saying that the potions are too expensive. They say other places are already lowering prices and that we should lower our prices too."

Lin Jichen wasn't surprised. As the pharmacies in major cities continued to update their Corpse Poison Potions, and with the formula for the Corpse Poison Potion dropping in the Corpse King Valley, players could make their own Corpse Poison Potions, so his potions wouldn't be monopolized anymore.

But he was sure that even if there were, it would only be a few for now.

This price could be maintained for at least two more days.

"Alright, keep selling at the current price. In two days, we'll lower the price once. Two days after that, we'll lower it again, and so on, until we sell out all the potions."

Lin Jichen instructed. He knew that the Corpse Poison Potions couldn't be sold at such a high price forever; the peak period was almost over.

He couldn't let the goods rot in his hands, so lowering the price was inevitable.

But as long as he sold out, he would definitely make a huge profit.

After instructing Xiaocui, Lin Jichen left the pharmacy and first contacted Jiang Luoyu to return the 50,000 Spirit Stones he had borrowed from her.

He also fulfilled his promise by giving her 30% interest, totaling 65,000 Spirit Stones.

Jiang Luoyu wasn't surprised. She accepted the Spirit Stones and asked, "Is the Commoner's Pharmacy in Fengqu City yours?"

"How did you know?"

Lin Jichen was surprised. Could this woman have been having him followed all along?
