Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

"Hmm? What is this?"

Looking at the jade token handed over by the old man, Chen Tian didn't rush to take it, but instead asked with a questioning tone.

"Oh, this is a VIP token that our Mi family specifically issues to some important guests.

As long as the esteemed guest holds this token, they can naturally enter the private rooms we have specially set up, which will save you a lot of unnecessary trouble."

The old man said with a fawning smile.

"Oh?"

Chen Tian became somewhat interested after hearing this, and stroking his chin, he said playfully, "Old sir, you should know that I am just a junior in the mid-stage of the Spirit引 Stage, can I really take this VIP token and sit in the hall of elegance?"

"Haha, esteemed guest, you are really joking."

At this time, the old man had also let go, no longer having any scruples, and laughed loudly, "You should understand what line of work I am in?

Over the centuries, I have handled tens of thousands of treasures, and have also seen tens of thousands of different kinds of cultivators.

I have never misjudged anyone.

Esteemed guest, you can deceive others, but you can't fool my eyes, so please accept this token with peace of mind, and consider it as our Mi family making friends with you."

This old man was indeed a shrewd businessman.

Although these words were not entirely explicit, they had already implicitly acknowledged Chen Tian's strength, which was extremely ambiguous.

Chen Tian was not a fool, of course he understood that the old man had already seen through his cultivation, so he didn't insist anymore.

With a wave of his right hand, he grasped the jade token handed over by the old man, and then smiled and said, "Alright then, since you are so sincere, if I still decline, I will be said to be unreasonable.

I'll accept this token."

"Excellent!"

Seeing Chen Tian accept the token, the old man smiled with satisfaction, then he bowed deeply to Chen Tian again, and said respectfully, "Then I will be waiting for your esteemed presence tonight."

Seeing this, Chen Tian didn't say anything, nodded with a smile, and then got up to walk out.

Seeing this, the old man hurriedly stepped forward, took the lead in scattering the light-shielding talisman, and then accompanied Chen Tian, chatting and laughing all the way as he welcomed him out of the store.

Before parting, the old man did not forget to repeatedly urge Chen Tian to be sure to attend the trade fair on time tonight.

Only after hearing Chen Tian's guarantee did the old man's heart relax, and he watched him disappear into the vast crowd.

"Shopkeeper, what is the background of that person?

Why were you so polite to him?"

Just after Chen Tian left, the clerk who had been there earlier walked forward with a curious look and asked the old man.

However, after hearing his words, the old man's originally smiling face suddenly turned gloomy.

He glanced at him askance and snorted coldly, "Hmph, if you don't want to die, then shut your mouth obediently.

Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask, don't you understand such a shallow principle?"

After being unreasonably reprimanded by the old man, the clerk was obviously a little depressed.

After replying with a mournful face, he walked back listlessly.

"Wait!"

However, just as he turned around, the old man seemed to have remembered something again, and immediately stopped him.

"Shopkeeper, do you have anything else for me?"

The clerk turned around with a puzzled look and asked.

"Like this, you must not tell anyone about the fact that person came to our store just now, otherwise, I will definitely punish you severely, do you believe it?"

While saying these words, a cold light suddenly burst out from the old man's eyes, rushing straight towards the clerk.

The clerk trembled all over when he saw this, and hurriedly nodded, "I know, I will definitely not tell anyone."

"Very good."

Seeing his reply, the old man nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "You can stay here to watch the store for now, I have some things to do, I have to leave for a while."

After saying that, the old man didn't stop at all, and hurriedly walked out of the store, and looking at the direction he was going, it was actually to go to the Mi family's mansion!

It must be said that this Forget-Worry City is more lively and prosperous than Chen Tian imagined.

Everywhere he passed, there were bluestone roads, traffic, and the sounds of hawking and yelling from all around had not stopped since morning, and it seemed that it would continue into the night.

Looking at this bustling and lively scene, Chen Tian's face was initially filled with a gentle smile, but gradually, he seemed to remember something, the smile faded, and sorrow arose.

Chen Tian remembered the time when he and Xiao Long were together when he was young.

At that time, the two thin figures walked hand in hand through one city after another, but no city was as rich and prosperous as Forget-Worry City.

Chen Tian walked all the way, even seeing no beggars on either side of the road, as if everyone here could have food to eat and a house to live in.

Seeing this scene, Chen Tian couldn't help but imagine in his mind, if he and Xiao Long hadn't gone to the Immortal Feather Sect at that time, but had come to this Forget-Worry City, what would have happened?

Of course, all this was just Chen Tian's fantasy, after all, if, there is no if… …

Thinking of this, Chen Tian couldn't help but sigh.

Just thinking of Xiao Long, Chen Tian's heart couldn't help but feel a trace of anger, after all, he still had no clue where Xiao Long's body was now.

Chen Tian was sure that Xiao Long's body must have been taken away, but he still didn't know what their purpose was.

However, Chen Tian was not too alarmed, because he knew that the ultimate purpose of these people taking Xiao Long's body was nothing more than to use it to blackmail him, or to ask him for some conditions.

Since this is the case, then Chen Tian believes that these people will definitely not do anything to Xiao Long's body for the time being.

So the only thing Chen Tian can do at this time is to wait!

Chen Tian predicted that one day, these people would not be able to hold back their breath, and then jump out from behind the dark scenes.

If Xiao Long's body was still intact at that time, no matter what the price, Chen Tian would snatch Xiao Long back.

But once Chen Tian finds out that Xiao Long's body has suffered even a tiny bit of damage, then no matter who it is, they will bear Chen Tian's endless anger!

Who on earth planned all this in secret?
