Cultivation Pet Shop

The screaming man tried to take back his pet and make his way out of the store, but who would let him do that?

Before he could even touch his pet, Lin Fan had already grabbed his hand and had it pinned behind his back.

Lin Fan just smiled at the man as he said, "I tried to give you a chance, but you're the one who didn't want to take it."

The man had a terrified look on his face as he said, "What are you going to do? Are you gonna beat me in broad daylight? Don't you know that's a clear violation of the law?"

Lin Fan just said, "You and I both know that this argument isn't valid, but I'll give you one last chance."

It was like the man had seen a straw to grasp at as he said, "What do you want?"

Lin Fan then said with a sly smile, "As long as you tell me who hired you to come here, I'll let you leave this store unharmed."

The man's expression froze when he heard this.

But he knew that he couldn't say a thing because if he did, it would certainly mean death. Compared to certain death, it was better to take the beating that he would receive from Lin Fan, which meant that he would be able to survive at the very least.

It was a pity that things didn't go as he planned.

Lin Fan gathered his life energy around his hand to form a blade and with the same smile, he placed the tip of the blade at the throat of the man and said in a calm voice, "Well you know what will happen if you don't talk."

The man suddenly began trembling, "You can't do this, it's against the laws to kill someone like this."

Lin Fan just smiled as he said, "It might be, but we all know that there are exceptions to those laws. You're the one who came to cause trouble in my store, this is all considered self defense. Besides, who would be able to hear the words of a dead man?"

The man began trembling even more as his eyes filled with fear. He had thought that this would be an easy job, but now he was on the edge of life and death. This mental strain was not something that he could take.

The surrounding people watching this couldn't help feeling a chill run down their spine. They had always thought that Lin Fan was a lazy store owner, but now it seemed like he was much more than that.

As for those that had seen him take care of Young Master Chen before, they were still shocked by this. They knew that Lin Fan was a rabid dog, but they never thought that he would be this crazy.

Still even though he was consumed with fear, the man didn't believe that Lin Fan would really do it.

Lin Fan could see this, so he moved his hand slightly forward to nick the skin and drew out a drop of blood.

The man couldn't believe that Lin Fan had actually done that, but he still believed that Lin Fan would draw back at the last second.

Lin Fan saw this firm look on his face and shook his head before he began moving his hand forward bit by bit, stabbing deeper and deeper into the neck and drawing out more blood.

It finally reached a point where the man couldn't stay calm anymore and he shouted, "Alright, alright, I'll tell you! But you have to promise me that you'll let me go!"

Lin Fan's hand stopped and he calmly said, "As long as you tell the truth, you're free to go."

The man calmed down and said with a serious look, "It was Elder Hua of the Alchemy Tower who hired me."

Lin Fan just gave a sigh and shook his head before raising his hand, "I guess you don't want to live any longer."

The man was calm, but then when he saw the life energy blade right in front of his eyes, he suddenly shouted, "Alright, it was Elder Chen! It was Elder Chen of the Alchemy Tower! He was the one who hired me!"

Lin Fan's hand stopped once again and he revealed a smile, "Now see, isn't that much easier?"

The man had a defeated look on his face as he said, "Can I go now?"

Lin Fan waved his hand at Angela to have her come over.

When Angela came over, Lin Fan had her heal up the wound on the man's neck before saying, "I said that you would leave here unharmed if you told me who hired you and I intend to keep my word. Now you better get going soon or you might not be able to escape the wrath of Elder Chen."

The man was shocked by this display, but he also knew that Lin Fan was right, so he quickly picked up his pet and left the shop. The first few hours would be crucial, if he couldn't get out of the city in time, he would be dead. But still that was better than dying right here at Lin Fan's hands.

Little did he know that Lin Fan had never planned on letting him go.

He had already placed one of Brainy's seeds on him before he let this man leave.

If he got caught, Lin Fan would receive some nice information. If he got away, Lin Fan wouldn't let him escape with his life.

It was a good thing that Lin Fan had already prepared for this scenario.

He had actually prepared these bags to use against the Feng Family when they had set up their pet shop back in Snow Wind City, but too bad he never had a chance to use them before he destroyed them.

Still they didn't go to waste as he could use them now.

He knew that this man was just a stalling strategy while the Alchemy Tower was waiting for their upper realm faction to send an envoy. Lin Fan was looking forward to seeing what this envoy would be like.

…

Time passed after that incident and soon a week had gone by.

There were no further incidents since Elder Chen had already learned his lesson. He didn't know what other plans Lin Fan had and there was already backlash to his reputation from the first plan.

As the man who had been the one to perpetrate this plan, he was later found dead in a ditch with his eyes wide open. No one could tell just how he had died, but he clearly died a painful death with the look on his face.

After the week had passed, while the Alchemy Tower was feeling tense, there was a meeting of the Alchemy Master's side that was called.

When everyone was gathered, they were wondering why the Alchemy Master had called them, but they weren't kept wondering for long.

The Alchemy Master came in with someone who was dressed in a dark cloak, completely covering their appearance. But they could tell from the aura that came from this person that he wasn't a simple person. They could tell that this person could beat them all down in an instant without breaking a sweat.

The Alchemy Master brought that person to the center of the room before saying with a smile, "Everyone, our worries are finally over. The Alchemy King Hall has heard our pleas and they have sent down this Lord Envoy."

At this, the cloaked person took off their cloak and revealed their appearance.

All the elders present were shocked to find that it was a young man who was in their twenties. This young man looked handsome with his long dark hair that flowed down and his face that seemed like it was carved from jade. But the most piercing part of this young man were his red eyes. They were crimson red like blood and it seemed like they could pierce into one's soul.

The envoy looked over them before giving a snort, "You really are all trash, how can you even call yourselves elders of a branch of our Alchemy King Hall if you're struggling in a lower realm?"

The elders had ugly looks on their faces, but none of them dared to refute him since this was the envoy the upper realm had sent.

The Alchemy Master just mediated with a smile, "Now, now. Cousin, there's no need for such harsh words, this is a special occasion."

The young man turned back to look at the Alchemy Master and while he didn't say anything, it was clear by the look in his eyes that he disdained this man.

The Alchemy Master did come from the same family as the young man, but he only came from a branch family, which was why he was down in this lower realm. Still, that allowed him to call this young man "cousin" since they were from the same generation.

The Alchemy Master ignored this and said, "Cousin, how about you tell them the plan?"

The young man turned back and said, "We'll be holding an alchemy contest."
