Ten Thousand Times Return: My Senior Sister Plucked Me At The Start

Jinhua City was indeed bustling with activity. The streets were filled with shops of all sizes, and there was an endless stream of pedestrians. It was a prosperous scene.

Although the spiritual energy here was extremely thin, it was much stronger than Wu Xuan City. Occasionally, one could still sense the aura of Qi Refinement Realm cultivators on the streets.

Moreover, Zhou Nation valued martial arts. Most of the shops opened were martial arts shops, and the people entering and exiting were all muscular and muscular men.

With just a cursory glance, Zhao Mu made a comparison in his heart.

The overall strength of the Zhou Country was much higher than that of the Zhao Country.

Even without those Foundation Establishment Realm cavalrymen who had consumed poison pills, it would be a piece of cake for Zhou Nation to take down Zhao Nation with its own military strength.

"Boss, the people of Zhou Nation are too open-minded. Tens of thousands of young boys and girls have been taken away, but they don't seem to have any sense of crisis. There are even people who bring children out to play. Aren't they afraid of losing their family line?" Ghost Toad said in puzzlement.

Zhao Mu said, "This shows that Wang Xian from the evil sect is very cautious. He did not capture young boys and girls in the capital city. The people in the capital city should not know about this. He probably wants to stay in Zhou Nation for a long time and nibble away bit by bit until Zhou Nation has completely lost its value to him. Then, he will leave after one last round of harvest."

"Tsk tsk, this evil sect is really ruthless. I wonder if he is a human or a demon."

"It doesn't matter if he is a human or a demon. Even if he is, we must get rid of him today."

After all, in Zhao Mu's view, Zhou Nation would soon become the territory of Zhao Nation. The people of Zhou Nation would also be the people of Zhao Nation. If the evil sect was allowed to do whatever they wanted and harm children, it would be Zhao Nation that would suffer losses.

As they spoke, Zhao Mu passed by a jewelry shop. The shop displayed a dazzling array of pearls and gemstones. Although they were not spiritual objects, they were still pleasing to the eye.

Placed in the middle of the shop was a huge colorful coral. The shape of the coral branch looked like a peacock from afar. Moreover, there were no traces of artificial processing. It should be a natural object, which was rare.

At this moment, there was no movement from the palace. There should be some free time for the time being.

Zhao Mu turned and walked into the jewelry shop. He called the shop assistant and asked, "What is the background of this colorful coral?"

The shop assistant immediately became spirited and hurriedly stepped forward to explain.

The origin of the coral was not strange. It was caught by a fisherman when he went out to sea to catch fish. After changing hands several times, it was bought by the owner of a jewelry store. He wanted to sell it in the store for a good price.

The price was indeed not cheap. It cost 8,000 taels of gold.

For ordinary people, this was already a sky-high price. Even high officials and nobles might not have such wealth.

Therefore, the Rainbow Coral had been in the store for more than two years and had yet to be sold.

Probably only cultivators would be able to afford such a thing.

However, while the Rainbow Coral was beautiful, it did not have any Spiritual Qi fluctuations. Cultivators would not be interested in it at all.

However, Zhao Mu was rather interested in the Rainbow Coral.

He had just obtained an immortal's cave and was in need of some decorations. Although this coral didn't have any spirituality, it was rare and beautiful. If he placed it beside the pond or in the courtyard, it would add a lot of light.

"Call your boss over. I want this coral."

When the shop assistant heard this, he hurriedly went to the back room to invite the shopkeeper over.

The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears. He was dressed in gold and silver and looked rather tacky.

"Do you accept Spirit Stones?" Zhao Mu did not beat around the bush and directly asked.

When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately realized that the handsome young man in front of him was an immortal cultivator. He immediately lowered his attitude and revealed a flattering smile. He nodded and said, "Of course. One low-grade Spirit Stone is equivalent to one tael of gold. If Immortal Master really wants to buy it, I can give you a 20% discount."

"Put it in a box. Don't knock it."

Zhao Mu took out a bag of spiritual stones and threw it to the shopkeeper.

There were ten thousand low-grade spiritual stones in the bag, which was worth ten thousand taels of gold. It was an unimaginable wealth for ordinary people, but for Zhao Mu, this amount of spiritual stones was not even enough to occupy the storage space in his storage ring.

"All for you."

The shopkeeper opened the bag and smiled from ear to ear. He quickly asked someone to bring the box over and put the Rainbow Coral in it properly.

Zhao Mu waved his hand and kept the box in his storage ring. He then turned and left.

After that, Zhao Mu walked around for a while and bought some miscellaneous items.

He mainly bought snacks, some antiques, paintings, and rare fruits and vegetables.

Anyway, the storage ring could keep things fresh for a long time. It would not spoil if he bought more.

Just as Zhao Mu was about to walk around the brothel street nearby, a strong wave of spiritual energy came from the direction of the palace.

Zhao Mu's heart skipped a beat. He brought Ghost Toad and rushed towards the palace.

Ordinary people would not be able to detect the fluctuation of Spirit Qi. Jinhua City was still a peaceful scene. However, when they approached the palace, they found that the security here was very tight. There was a guard every ten steps and a sentry every three steps. The palace was completely protected.

Moreover, these guards were almost all in the Foundation Establishment Realm. However, their aura was the same as the cavalry in Zhao Country. They all had a strange feeling. It should be the result of consuming poison pills to forcefully increase their cultivation.

When he arrived at the foot of the palace, Zhao Mu no longer hid his cultivation. With a flash of sword radiance, he killed his way into the palace.

Following the source of the fluctuation of spiritual energy, Zhao Mu quickly found his way to an imperial garden in the harem.

He saw a large amount of poisonous fog rising. The rare herbs in the imperial garden had all withered and rotted.

In the poisonous fog, Shi Rui stood in the air. Her body was shrouded in a layer of hazy white light, preventing the poisonous fog from invading.

At the place where the poisonous fog was the thickest, he could vaguely see a tall and thin figure. It should be Wang Xian from the evil sect.

Zhao Mu was slightly surprised. Wang Xian's cultivation was much higher than he expected. He had reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm and was even close to the Soul Transformation Realm.

Such an expert would have a high status in any sect or force. He could get a lot of cultivation resources. Why did this evil sect member come to the secular dynasty to commit crimes?

There was only one explanation.

This evil cultivator's cultivation was obtained by constantly plundering young boys and girls.

This was his way of cultivation.

"Senior Sister, don't panic. I'll help you."

Zhao Mu did not have the time to think too much. He quickly flew to Shi Rui's side and unleashed his Crimson Sun Force, dispersing the poisonous fog around him.

No matter how powerful the poisonous fog was, it was still made up of evil Yin Qi. Zhao Mu's Crimson Yang Qi was the natural enemy of all evil Yin Qi. Thus, it was quite effective against the poisonous fog.

Shi Rui was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Junior Brother Zhao, you must be careful. This evil cultivator is already half a step into the Deity Transformation Stage and his methods are extremely sinister and ruthless. I was careless and fell into his trap just now. A poisonous gas has already invaded my meridians, making it impossible for the spiritual qi in my body to circulate smoothly."

Shi Rui was poisoned?

Zhao Mu scanned the area and found that there was indeed a wisp of black Qi around Shi Rui's chest. The poison had already entered her heart.

If he was a Core Formation cultivator, he would have died by now.

However, Shi Rui was a Nascent Soul Realm expert after all. As long as her Nascent Soul was not destroyed, she would not be poisoned to death so easily.

Without hesitation, Zhao Mu grabbed Shi Rui's arm and channeled his Crimson Sun Force into Shi Rui's body to suppress the poisonous gas in her body.
