Early morning, with faint mist and the crowing of roosters.

As people gradually filled the streets of Jinzhou City, vegetable vendors and fruit farmers pushed their carts to the fair.

“This should be the place, it’s more reliable to get a demon cultivator to find someone.”

A deep purple-robed elderly man chuckled lightly.

With white hair and a disheveled look, he did not seem eye-catching; nevertheless, passersby couldn’t help but look at him.

That’s because an unsettling feeling emerged whenever they walked past him.

Consequently, people around him chose to avoid him, keeping a distance of several meters.

The purple-robed elder didn’t care about the surrounding gazes, as he walked steadily through the streets, passing the inner city and finally arriving at the nearby commercial district, bustling with various industries.

He stopped in front of a shop, glanced at the spotless Huai’s pawnshop sign, and clucked his tongue:

“This is indeed a good place. It’s quite a pity if I have to take action.”

Inside Huai’s pawnshop,

Pei Xiangyun, holding a feather duster, was cleaning the dust piled in front of the counter, humming a tune as she looked at the empty pawnshop, she couldn’t help but purse her lips and grumble:

“Stinky brother-in-law, he left early in the morning. I don’t know what he’s up to—leaving me all alone.”

“I’m not his nanny, why am I the one watching the shop all the time?”

The white-haired mynah perched leisurely on a roof beam, preening its feathers. Suddenly, it raised its head and looked at the pawnshop’s entrance.

Pei Xiangyun also heard the sound of someone crossing the threshold, and raised her head to look at the entrance.

She saw the curtain lifted as a shadow entered.

It was the old man in the deep purple robe from outside.

“Pawn or pledge?” Pei Xiangyun didn’t pay much attention to the old man and continued to flick dust with the feather duster nonchalantly.

“Where’s the shopkeeper?”

A faint smile rested on the old man’s face.

“He left early in the morning. Bringing something to me works just as well, and I’ll do my best to give you a good price.” Pei Xiangyun propped her head up, speaking lazily.

She didn’t know what her brother-in-law was thinking, insisting on running such a troublesome shop. Why couldn’t he just close it and focus on Immortal Cultivation instead? He only knew how to bother others all day long.

“I’m not here to pawn anything.”

The purple-robed elder shook his head.

Not pawning? Could he have come to borrow money?

Pei Xiangyun’s eyes were filled with confusion, she asked, “Then what are you here for?”

“I’m here to look for someone.” The purple-robed elder spoke calmly.

In that calm statement, it seemed as if an overwhelming killing intent lurked; an invisible momentum surged from the old man’s body.

Feeling her eyelids twitch, Pei Xiangyun sensed danger and asked cautiously, “Looking for someone? You should report it to the government if you’re looking for someone. What are you doing here?”

The purple-robed elder seemed to have heard something amusing, and laughed softly.

“The one I’m looking for is already found. I’m just worried he won’t come with me willingly. Why don’t you help me figure out a way, young lady?”

Pei Xiangyun was not afraid. After all, she is a cultivator herself and could deal with any delinquents. Besides, she had such a powerful sister and brother-in-law, so she had nothing to fear. So, she smiled and said,

“A way? If it were me, I would find his weakness, seize it, and then he wouldn’t have any choice but to follow.”

“Good idea.’

The purple-robed elder nodded, apparently in agreement.

“But the person I’m looking for is right here.”

“Who?” Pei Xiangyun felt the tense atmosphere in the air, as if walking on a knife’s edge. She discreetly took out her whip weapon, ready to subdue the opponent if he made a move.

Her yel Niangyun was aDs01ute1Y not to De trillea witn!

“The shopkeeper here.”

The purple-robed elder let out a faint laugh, then glanced around at the shop’s furnishings, commenting,

“Such simple decoration,” and then fixed his dull gaze on Pei Xiangyun’s face, showing no emotion, “Kid, it makes no difference whether you use your weapon or not. Even if you replaced it with a magical weapon or a spiritual treasure, the outcome would still be the same. You are nothing more than a Qi-Refining Realm cultivator—too weak.”

“You!”

Pei Xiangyun’s face turned pale.

Her cultivation level was seen through in an instant, indicating that the other party’s cultivation was at least in the Initiation Realm. Moreover, she had the hidden spiritual jade from her sect on her, which was used to conceal her qi. How could any ordinary person see through her realm?

Under the protection of the hidden spiritual jade, he still saw through her cultivation level in an instant?This old man is very dangerous! At this moment, how could she not guess the old man’s motive?! The other party must have come for Brother-in-law!

“What do you want with my family’s shopkeeper?!”

Pei Xiangyun took a few steps back, her almond eyes filled with panic.

“I warn you! My brother-in-law is very powerful, even those in the Golden

Core Realm can’t match him.”

“Hahaha! ”

The purple-robed old man sneered upon hearing this, as if he had just heard a joke.

Then, from beneath his white beard, his eyes became extremely deep, and a

hint of disdain appeared at the corner of his mouth: “Nonsense Golden Core Realm, it’s just rubbish.”

Golden Core Realm, rubbish?!

Hearing this, Pei Xiangyun shuddered, her almond eyes filled with shock.

An Initiation Stage cultivator could stand at the pinnacle of the Mortal World, and even within the great sects, they were considered foundational pillars.

Not to mention those in the Golden Core Realm, they were the powerful elites within the sects, capable of inheriting great responsibilities, and were key figures in determining the prosperity of a sect.

In the eyes of this old man, those in the Golden Core Realm were rubbish!

Then what realm was he in? “Who are you?!”

Pei Xiangyun asked apprehensively.

“Me? I’ve almost forgotten myself, having experienced so many bodies and so many years.”

The purple-robed old man stretched out his old hand, his eyes filled with confusion as if reminiscing.

The next second, a large amount of demonic fog surged around him, enveloping the entire pawnshop, making it look incredibly eerie and terrifying.

“Devil cultivator!”

Pei Xiangyun couldn’t believe it.

There was actually a devil cultivator in Jinzhou City!

Why would a devil cultivator target the Mortal World!

There were no treasures in Jinzhou, nor was there anything special about it!

The purple-robed old man’s body floated in the air, his white hair also fluttering, as he looked at Pei Xiangyun opposite and laughed softly:

“Don’t even mention the Golden Core Realm, even Nascent Souls are just worms in my eyes.”

His demonic might rolled, and the terrifying oppressive aura spread out.

Pei Xiangyun’s heart was tilled with extreme tear.

Facing this old man, she couldn’t muster any will to resist, feeling utterly suppressed.

In front of him, she felt as insignificant as a grain of sand in the ocean, as if he could crush her with a casual squeeze.

A Nascent Soul cultivator’s lifespan had already reached a thousand years and was a renowned existence in the Immortal Cultivation World.

But this old man still looked down upon them, could it be that his realm was even higher!

Metamorphosis Stage.

A realm that she didn’t even dare to think about.

Mastering the rules of Heaven and Earth, manipulating the Great Power.

Even the leaders of each Immortal Sect were probably around this realm.

“Girl, for now, I’ll spare your life. I hope when your family’s shopkeeper returns, you can prove useful. Otherwise, you’ll have no value left.”

The purple-robed old man said with a faint smile, his ordinary words giving off a hair-raising feeling!

Pei Xiangyun’s heart chilled as if she was in an icy cave. The other party was determined to find Brother-in-law!

“What if he refuses?”

She carefully and tremblingly asked.

The purple-robed old man sat in the pawnshop’s recliner, his old eyes slightly narrowed, leisurely saying: “If he refuses, I’ll have no choice but to kill him, seize his flesh body, and take his flowing qi.’

Pei Xiangyun felt a wave of despair in her heart, her gaze cast towards the street, as the shop’s entrance was gradually obscured by the demonic fog, she silently screamed.

Brother-in-law, don’t come back!
