"Wow--"
"So many?!" Mei Fugui was stunned. "Why is there half more than usual?"
"It seems to be because Manager Jiang Qingyi snatched two Xumo yesterday..."
"Oh," Mei Fugui suddenly became depressed again. He thought that Emperor Taiming had hidden his family fortune, but it turned out to be just a stroke of luck.
He waved his hands weakly: "Forget it, let's open for business..."

153. Unlimited Firepower
"Oh, are you going to throw away the broken jar?"
Jiantianzong’s shop is just diagonally opposite Mei Fugui’s shop, and the person in charge is named Wu Facai.
The saying "enemies become jealous of each other when they meet" is basically like this.
"A bottle of five spirit stones?"
Even Wu Facai was shocked when he saw the price on the price board.
This price is even 20% lower than the price at which Jiantian Sect sells at a loss.
Wu Facai immediately laughed: "Emperor Taiming wants guests more than his life?"
"Hmph." Mei Fugui didn't know how to refute. Everyone knew that Tai Mingzong's price war would not last long.
Although they can attract some customers now and feel proud, once their money is gone, the customers will switch to Jiantian Sect again.
But when facing the enemy, we must never show weakness.
"Just wait and see." Mei Fugui of Taiming Sect glared viciously at Wu Facai of Jiantian Sect.
Wu Facai returned to his shop whistling happily, and did not forget to report the new price of Tai Ming Zong to his boss.
"Price war? Taiming Sect has accepted the war?" Gu Yuetian quickly learned the news.
This was not a big deal and should not have been handled personally by him as the sect leader, but he asked his subordinates to pay special attention to the information related to Taiming Sect, and the price war only then caught his attention.
"It seems that Emperor Taiming has given up hope," said Bijiu.
"This is unusual. Although the leader of Taiming Sect looks cowardly, he is actually very smart and will never make a decision that would harm the interests of the sect." Gu Yuetian shook his head. "I don't believe he is a fool who would drink poison to quench his thirst. Besides, the decision-making power of Taiming Sect's medicine market is in Yiqin's hands. Yiqin is calm and steady in the face of things. She is definitely not the kind of impulsive young man."
"Then what's the meaning of this?" Bijiu is a careless man who is too lazy to think, so he is not good at studying this kind of thing.
This traitor from the stars is best at conspiracy and intrigue.
"There is another piece of news here, which is quite interesting," Gu Yuetian held up a piece of letter paper, "Early this morning, Taiming Sect appointed Jiang Qingyi, a new disciple of Lingyin Valley, as the new market manager..."
"It seems that Emperor Taiming is really crazy." Bijiu shook his head.
"Senior, don't underestimate any enemy, even if she can only reach your waist when she jumps," Gu Yuetian said seriously.
"So what do you think they want to do?"
"It seems that Taiming Sect has found a new source of material supply," Gu Yuetian patted the table lightly, "They want to use these new material reserves to establish market advantages, make a name for themselves in the hearts of customers, and let the people of Shenzhou remember the name of Taiming Sect... The current loss is just an investment."
"What should we do?"
"It's simple. Now we just need to do two things at the same time. First, find their new source of material supply and cut it off, leaving them without any supplies. Second, buy out all their low-priced goods, making it impossible for them to establish a market reputation. In this way, Tai Ming Zong will have no hope of making a comeback!"
"Let me take charge of this matter." Xu Chen stepped out at the right time and volunteered, "It will be much easier to deal with the Taiming Sect as soon as possible."
Seeing Xu Chen's figure, Bijiu and Gu Yuetian suddenly felt at ease.
Although this junior is not good at fighting, he is very good at doing clerical work.
It was with his help that the Imperial Master was able to open the Taixu Clan's treasure house so smoothly and take away half of Jiang Ke'er's soul.
There was also the arrangement of the formation a while ago, and the repeated tampering with Si Tianyi.
He and Dijiang agreed that if he had not met the Wall-Hanging Fox, he would have been the most outstanding young man of this era.
"Okay, with you handling Taiming Sect, we can all rest assured." Gu Yuetian bowed slightly respectfully to the young man. Although the other party's nominal position was lower than his, he did not dare to neglect him.
After all, he was just a traitor and outsider from the stars. No matter how diligently he worked, his status could not be higher than that of this capable assistant who had followed Master Yuwen for decades.
"I wonder how my old friend is doing recently?" Bijiu asked curiously. This old friend refers to Yuwen Guoshi. "He woke me and Dijiang up, and then he was busy and nagging. He didn't come back to meet us... What a big pig's hoof."
"Forgive me for understanding, Senior. The Imperial Master has been busy dealing with the Demon Cult recently. I'm afraid he won't have time to come back until the evil caused by the Demon Cult is solved." Xu Chen said with a bow.
"Is it that difficult? Even he can't handle it?" Bijiu was a little dissatisfied.
"After all, the power of the stars is behind that demon sect..." Xu Chen said, his cold eyes swept over Gu Yuetian calmly, "Thanks to Mr. Gu Yuetian's surrender, the stars have a legitimate reason to intervene in Shenzhou's affairs. Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken so much time."
Does this mean I'm to blame?
Gu Yuetian sneered when he heard this: "If I hadn't brought the formation, would the Immortal Realm have had a chance to regain control of Shenzhou? If I hadn't given you the Guanqiu family's weapon blueprints...with just your national teacher, could he have weakened the ancient god Jiang Ke'er in her prime until now?"
"I don't mean to blame Mr. Gu Yuetian, but..." Xu Chen and Gu Yuetian narrowed their eyes and looked at each other, "It's just that the former master of the stars was very shrewd and cunning, and his moves were so complicated that we couldn't guard against them. We have to think more about some things."
"Why should we guard against her?" Gu Yuetian laughed, "She can't even protect herself, you're thinking too much."
Xu Chen did not continue to dwell on this topic. He bowed, said "goodbye", and then stood up to deal with Tai Mingzong.
*******
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The customer flow of all major shops in Taiming Sect has improved significantly. After all, these days, spirit stones are very precious in everyone's hands. One less piece is better if used, so people try to save as much as possible.
On the other hand, the shops of Jiantian Sect were impacted by the sudden rise of Taiming Sect. For a time, they were in a gloomy situation, and their revenue reports turned green every night.
But both sides are well aware that this is only temporary.
According to Jiantian Sect's Kuntang's estimation, Taiming Sect can only hold out for half a month at most.
After half a month, the family's assets will be completely wiped out, and they will inevitably raise prices, tighten spending, and weaken output.
At that time, it will be the opportunity for Jiantian Sect to reverse the situation.
"How is it? Is it out of stock today?"
Early in the morning, Wu Facai ran proudly to the door of Mei Fugui's shop and strolled around.
But Mei Fugui raised his hand with disdain and shook his Qiankun bag.
wow-
A small mountain of pills fell onto the counter, and there was even more than before!
Wu Facai was stunned, his face suddenly flushed, and he snorted coldly: "Humph, let's see how long you can keep your mouth shut."
After saying this, he walked away dejectedly.
However, knowing that Tai Mingzong could not hold out for much longer, he ran over early the next morning to check on the situation.
wow-
Weird! This shouldn't happen!
Then, the second day, the third day, the fourth day...
But the goods coming in every day are increasing! There is no sign of weakness at all!
"Something's wrong! Why isn't it cooling down?"

154. Missing Taozhi
Just when the Jiantian Sect's shops were in a gloomy mood and people were complaining bitterly, a piece of news reached the ears of all the major sects.
"A new wave of demonic fluctuations has appeared!"
"The address is near Chang'an City!"
"To avoid harming the people in the city, all the major sects please go and encircle and suppress them as soon as possible!"
The news came during the morning class again. Early in the morning of that day, Jiang Keer was pulled onto the cloud boat.
She wanted to chat with her daughters whom she hadn't seen for a few days, but she was called to the conference room as soon as she got on the Yunzhou.
"Pre-war meeting now."
Master Yuan sat at the head of the conference table with a stern face. The room was filled with the tension and solemnity before the war.
After all, it concerns Taiming Sect’s resource supply for the next half month, as well as the disciples’ spiritual cultivation, and cannot be neglected.
"According to past practice, the leaders of each sect have clear division of labor, and they will meet the enemy in the southeast, northwest, and northeast directions respectively. I will lead all the junior brothers from Xihe Peak and Uncle Yiqin to join the group in the middle."
"clear."
This has been Taiming Sect's traditional strategy for snatching monsters. Four peak masters are stationed in four directions respectively, waiting for the Xu Demon to be on the verge of death and then rush over to snatch it away as soon as possible.
The rest of the people try their luck in the middle.
"Qingyi, what do you think?" Yiqin turned her gaze to Jiang Keer.
The peak masters frowned, somewhat puzzled... What kind of magic did this little girl put into Yiqin? First, she was recommended to be the market manager against all odds, and now she even had to ask for her opinion on the matter of robbing the Ruins Demon.
Jiang Ke'er was stunned: "What opinion do I need? Just... rob it."
The peak masters thought she was going to say something brilliant, but this was understandable, after all, she was just a child.
"However, if possible, I hope everyone can go to Chang'an City to guard it," Jiang Ke'er added, "Chang'an City is densely populated, and other sects are busy fighting for monsters. I'm afraid they won't be able to allocate extra manpower to protect the citizens."
"That's true," Sect Master Yuan smiled bitterly, "But if that's the case, who will go and snatch the Ruins Demon? Are we just going to give it up like this?"
"It's not that we don't want to save it, but after half a month of crazy refining, Taiming Sect is now out of materials. This fight for the Ruin Demon is related to the life and death of Taiming Sect! We must grab this Ruin Demon, so that Taiming Sect can breathe a sigh of relief..."
"I'll go grab it!" Jiang Ke'er interrupted, "It's enough for me to go by myself."
"..."
Where does this little girl get her confidence from?
"Qingyi, it's a good thing that you are willing to take the initiative to take on important tasks," Sect Master Yuan looked helplessly at Jiang Ke'er, who was as thin as a bean sprout, "but sometimes, we have to do things within our capabilities... You have been smooth sailing since you were a child, and you probably don't know how big this world is. Most of those sect masters are powerful masters at the Venerable level. You will have to practice for at least a few more decades before you can tie with one of them."
"Yeah, so it doesn't take more than ten years for me to beat them up now." Jiang Ke'er said as a matter of course.
"Ah? No! This logic... is wrong!" Sect Master Yuan was sweating profusely, "You can't beat them now!"
"But I can snatch the Ruins Demon."
"How are you going to rob them if you can't beat them?" Sect Leader Yuan said anxiously.
"Didn't I grab it last time?" Jiang Ke'er blinked.
"..."
This is really irrefutable.
"You were just taking advantage of it last time. This time there's no sea of snow for you to hide yourself!" Sect Leader Yuan argued.
"If there's nothing, then there's nothing! Why are you being so mean to me?"
"Ah?" Sect Master Yuan was stunned. "No, I mean, without the Snow Sea, you can't snatch the Demon Ruins..."
Jiang Keer's mouth flattened.
"Don't explain, you just want to be mean to me!"
"It's not that I don't have it!" Sect Master Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Stop it, robbing the Ruins Demon is no joke, we can't tolerate childish tempers..."
"If there is no snow, then there is no snow. Why are you being so mean to her?" Yiqin also glared at Sect Master Yuan.
Sect Leader Yuan was so aggrieved that he almost cried: "I was also mean to her! How was I mean to her? It was obviously you who were mean to me!"
"Just let her go and grab it. It's just a Xumo anyway." Yiqin spoke again.
"..."
Sect Leader Yuan still wanted to argue, but he saw Yiqin had quietly picked up the peach branch and pointed it at his butt.
When they were young, Sect Leader Yuan and his fellow apprentices sneaked into Lingyin Valley to peek at girls taking baths, but they were often severely beaten by Yiqin. When Yiqin lifted the peach branch, his buttocks began to hurt before he even started.
"Let her go, let her go!" Sect Master Yuan pursed his lips in grief and indignation, "Is it okay if I don't care? At worst, the whole sect will be finished with us!"
"You kid, who do you think helped you take back the medicine market?" Yiqin's peach blossom branch finally landed on the sect master's buttocks. "Do you really think that your uncle is a fool? Would you indulge a child in the position of chief steward to act recklessly? Use your brain to think! Instead of your hind half!"
Sect Leader Yuan was taught a lesson in public, his dignity was lost, his face turned red, and the mushroom on his head shattered all over the ground.
