  "I want the receptionist Alice on the second floor and Mondo in front of you." Chen Le said slowly.

  "Oh dear, customer, it seems what you want is a bit hard to come by." The shop owner showed the kind of smile that elderly people often display.

  "Old man, tell me the price, this is what I think is the most valuable thing in your store!" Chen Le said disdainfully.

  "Guest, don't worry about the strong wind, just be careful with your tongue." The shop owner said with narrowed eyes.

  "Oh, then tell me what valuable things you have in your store?" Chen Le also narrowed his eyes and stared at him.

  "My store has been here since the first World of Warcraft wave." The owner proudly introduced.

  "The centennial tides of the Burning Legion are always blocked at the gathering place of Shandral." The shopkeeper began to get serious.

  "Then, every time the monster tide came, it was blocked right at my shop door." The shop owner narrowed his eyes.

  "In the end, those adventurers all handed over the things they obtained from the magical beasts to my shop, and as a reward, I would give them some elixirs. Of course, there were also people who came to ask for elixirs in exchange for which they would give me some experience notes and magic spells. Therefore, my shop possesses wealth that you can't imagine. I think you're a genius, able to defeat Mondo at such a young age. Join us, and I'll give you the best elixirs, the best martial skills, plus the careful guidance of this 9th-level warrior. I believe you will eventually reach level 9!" The shop owner finished speaking in one breath, then looked at Chen Le with some fervor.

  "Oh, is that all?" Chen Le said nonchalantly.

  "Dan medicine? Sorry, I don't need it. Martial skills? Even the strongest martial skills are not as exhilarating as a strong body. Materials? I'll get them myself. Your careful guidance? Do... you... have... the... qualifications?" The last few words Chen Le almost spat out one by one.

  "How detestable!" The shop owner was infuriated, he had not expected this young whippersnapper to belittle his own store so much.

  "Little kid, since you look down on my store so much, then tell me what do you have?" The shop owner's forehead bulged with blue veins, his eyes wide open, as if he would devour Chen Le if he didn't give a satisfactory answer.

  "I'll just make some medicine then." Chen Le said with a relaxed expression.

  "Dan medicine? You, a young whippersnapper like you? You're not even twenty years old yet, and even if you were born with the ability to refine medicine, it's impossible for you to surpass an advanced alchemist!" The shopkeeper said disdainfully.

  "What if I can refine a Dan medicine of the Broken Mirror level?" Chen Le said with a smile.

  "If you can refine a Dan medicine of the Broken Mirror level, then it's not just Alice and Mondo that you can take away, if you're willing, here you can take whatever you want!" The shopkeeper said loudly.

  "That's it. The medicine is on you." Chen Le said with a smile.

  "I'll provide if I have it, but what can you do if you can't refine it?" said the shop owner.

  "I'll agree with you on one thing, although I think it's impossible for you to win." Chen Le said with a smile.

  "That's good, if you win, consider yourself my apprentice." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

  "Haha, okay, okay!" Chen Le said with a smile.

  "At least you're not as annoying as I imagined." Chen Le said with a big laugh.

  "Tomorrow at the Seven Star Auction House in Sangzhao District, I'll be waiting for you. By the way, what do you need?" The shop owner asked curiously.

  "Dried bones soar, heavenly wind and sand, seven-star leaves, barbarian cow's blood, and also the Clear Water Immortal. And one more seventh-grade magic crystal." Chen Le said with a smile.

  "This formula seems to give me a familiar feeling?" The shopkeeper said slowly.

  "You'll know tomorrow." Chen Le said with a smile.

  "All right, you can stay here for today then. By the way, what's your name?" asked the shop owner.

  "Leisure Arthur!" Chen Le replied.

  "My name is Connor Kenway," said Connor Kenway.

  "How come I feel like this name is somewhat familiar?" Chen Le thought with a puzzled mind.

  "I was once the greatest assassin on the mainland." Connor said proudly.

  "First killer? How come you haven't been caught by your enemies yet?" Chen Le said weakly.

  "An enemy of the state? My name is still on the Imperial Empire's most wanted list." Connor said with unparalleled pride.

  "Huh, okay, then why didn't they come to bother you?" Chen Le asked in puzzlement.

  "Alright, I gave them enough to let me off," Connor said sullenly.

  "You're still on their wanted list. How can I let you off?" Chen Le said with a smile.

  "He wants to save face, so I'll give it to him." Connor said in a low voice.

  "Never mind, go and prepare the medicine quickly. Also, call that cart driver at the door to come in and stay, otherwise I won't make this bet with you." Chen Le said strongly.

  "It's just a place to live." Connor pulled out a card and said: "Hei Yi, bring the driver outside in and arrange him in District One."

  "Yes." Card let out a low murmur.

  "Hey, is this your subordinate?" Chen Le asked with a smile.

  "Why are you only concerned about my subordinates? Why don't you care about this contact card of mine?" Connor said with a sullen tone.

  "It's just an alchemy product, I think if you show it to me once, I can make it." Chen Le said honestly.

  "Don't tease me, you. You'd better think carefully about tomorrow's alchemy competition, or else you'll lose and end up a laughing stock." Connor said with a sly tone.

  "Embarrassing? Will there be onlookers tomorrow?" Chen Le said with doubt.

  "Of course. At that time, the administrator of the Sandro District, Sherman Grand Duke of the Kingdom of Yuye, and Master Mack of the Iron Kingdom will all come to visit." Connor said, ticking off name after name.

  "How can you be so sure they'll come?" Chen Le asked in puzzlement.

  "They dare not come, if they don't come I'll go knock on their door every night," Connor said proudly.

  "Alright, alright." Chen Le was speechless.

  "Go ahead, you can live in the fifth district. Haha, that's where my future apprentice will live, but I think you're already more or less my apprentice, so let you stay for now." Connor said with satisfaction.

  "Arrogant old man." Chen Le said with a snort and walked towards the door of District 4.

  The receptionist in the fourth district was a magician. Chen Le glanced at him and the magician said, "Go ahead, Old Man Kenwei has already said to let you pass."

  Chen Leyu walked gloomily to the fifth district.

  "Huh, why is nobody here?" Chen Le looked at the empty entrance, and in this area there were four rooms, each with a sign that read "Medicine Storage", "Combat Training Room", "Magic Crystal Storage" and "Bedroom".

  "Huh, surprisingly there's no money in the house." Chen Le was puzzled, but he didn't dwell on this issue and walked straight into the room marked as the bedroom.

  "Holy crap, I'm blinded." Chen Le opened the door and was immediately stimulated by a mountain of gold.

  "Fist-sized diamonds, a whole kilogram of emeralds. These precious things that are worth a fortune outside are like trash here, casually discarded on the ground."

  "Where's the bed?" Chen Le searched around and later found a long, rectangular piece of cold iron that looked most like a bed.

  "Is this a bed?" Chen Le weakly complained.

  "How is it? Is the bedroom satisfactory?" Connor's sly voice came from outside the door.

  "Aren't you afraid others will take these things away?" Chen Le said with doubt.

  "Is this stuff interesting?" Connor said in puzzlement.

  Chen Le immediately understood that there must be something valuable in the old man's bedroom. Hurry up and participate! Everyone has a prize, now follow the QDRead WeChat public account immediately!
