[TL Note: This phrase is an internet slang meant to warn people not to show off.]
Fang Qi looked around the room and then at the young man before him.
At this moment, Jiang Xiaoyue who was sitting next to him, asked, “Who are you? Why do you want us to cancel the competition?”
Fang Qi asked Xue Daolv who was by his side, “Palace Master Xue, are these so-called Three Saint Gates very famous here? They sound lofty with the word ‘Saint’ in their name, but how come I’ve never heard of them before?”
“...”
“Mr. Fang, should I say that you’re ignorant or just playing dumb?” Huo Chong mocked.
Therefore, Xue Daolv had to explain to Fang Qi the background of the Three Saint Gates.
“Three hermit factions?” Fang Qi glanced at them. “Then, why did they come out here?”
Feng Xi’s face twitched, and he was about to lose his temper.
At this moment, Lan Mo, the Wuwei Daoist Alliance Master, came in.
Is he the messenger from the Taixi Faction?! Lan Mo was surprised that a messenger from the Taixi Faction had come into the shop!
Mr. Fang knows people from the Taixi Faction? he thought.
“Alliance Master Lan,” Feng Xi snorted at the sight of Lan Mo. “Since you’re all here, I’ll go straight to the point. Now, I’ll give you one last chance to choose. Although I don’t know how this shop made you give up on the Cultivation Realm Conference, you can rest assured that you have me, a disciple of the Taixi Faction, behind you! If they dare to play dirty tricks, we’ll handle them. I’ll see if anyone dares to play tricks in front of me!”
These words were both a warning to this shop and a threat to the cultivators in the Wuwei Daoist Alliance. From his perspective, the people would choose differently this time after he said that.
However, the room was silent, and no one responded!
“Why would they go to the Cultivation Realm?” At this moment, Nalan Hongwu walked into the shop. “Instead of fighting there and putting their lives on the line, they are better off staying behind and playing here for a month.”
Nalan Hongwu said those words from his own experience. Thanks to this shop, he had gained a breakthrough and improved his mental strength. Even if he went to the Cultivation Realm, he didn’t know how long it would take to achieve these results.
“It’s none of your business!”
“Saint Messenger!” Lan Mo said, “Senior Nalan is right. Please leave!”
“You...” Feng Qi’s face fell with disbelief. He looked toward Xue Daolv and Ye Songtao and asked, “Do you think the same?”
No one answered him, but it was obvious they that agreed with Lan Mo.
“Stubborn!” Feng Xi glared at Fang Qi and said, “Although I don’t know what this shop promised you, it seems that the shop owner is determined to interfere with the Cultivation Realm Conference which is held every 30 years!”
“Although our Three Saint Gates don’t care about you, it would be a disgrace if everyone else copies you and doesn’t attend the Cultivation Realm Conference! Just as my master said, since the people of the Taixi Faction rarely come to the mainland, some people don’t know who they are messing with!”
He waved his left arm, and a small bronze cauldron flew into the air from his sleeve!
The round cauldron had a cubical space inside. After it was activated, it released a shocking aura!
“No!” All the high-level cultivators exclaimed at the sight, “The Demon-Suppressing Cauldron! It’s the supreme treasure, the Demon-Suppressing Cauldron!”
“He even brought a supreme treasure with him!” Xue Daolv whispered to Fang Qi, “Can the Senior... handle it?”
Hearing Xue Daolv’s question, many other high-level cultivators also looked over.
“Supreme treasure?!” Fang Qi asked in bafflement, “Is this thing very powerful?”
“It’s more than powerful!” Xue Daolv’s face turned dark at Fang Qi’s ignorance. “Each supreme treasure could be regarded as the ultimate treasure to a faction... Besides, this supreme treasure is a high-level one... It’s quite likely that it’s the legendary Demon-Suppressing Cauldron!”
“A high-level one?” Fang Qi frowned.
Many customers exclaimed when the small cauldron grew to the size bigger than a person in a blink of an eye. If it continued growing, it would break the shop and probably crush Fang Qi and the people around him!
“Yeah...” Xue Daolv nodded.
Before he could finish, he saw a sight that dumbfounded him and everyone else.
The cauldron had grown to the height of several people, and all the customers backed away from it. At this moment, it emitted horrifying black light and shivered as if it tried to grow but couldn’t do it!
It was all because it had touched the ceiling!
“What’s wrong?!” Feng Xi immediately chanted his spiritual spell and yelled, “Suppress!”
The bronze cauldron shook, but it still couldn’t break the ceiling, let alone suppress the people!
Feng Xi activated all the spiritual essence in his body and yelled angrily, “Suppress them for me!”
He even began to sweat.
However, the big cauldron shook in vain.
Annoyed, Fang Qi waved his hand and said, “Someone is causing trouble here!”
Crack!
A lightning bolt crashed down!
Everyone was dumbfounded when they looked at the Saint Messenger of the Taixi Faction, who was now lying on the ground with white foam coming out of his mouth.
“Don’t you know that showing off will get you struck by lightning?!” Fang Qi waved his hand, and the shop door opened automatically right before Feng Xi was tossed out!
Then, Fang Qi looked at Huo Chong. “Will you go out yourself or do you want me to throw you out?”
“How did you open the door with just a wave?!” Huo Chong was slow to react.
Fang Qi grabbed his collar and tossed him out next.
“...”
“The Senior is so powerful...”
“Awesome! The Demon-Suppressing Cauldron can’t even break the ceiling!”
“What’s the realm of this cultivator? It must be above the Divine Ocean Realm, right?”
“Showing off means you will get struck by lightning!” The people talked among themselves animatedly.
“Boss!” Jiang Xiaoyue looked at the cauldron and asked, “What shall we do with this cauldron?”
Looking at the big cauldron, Fang Qi also didn’t know what to do. “Shall we electrocute it as well?”
The big cauldron seemed to understand Fang Qi’s words, and it shivered and immediately shrunk to its original size!
“Hiss! He got the supreme treasure so easily?!” Many people looked at the cauldron with greed. After all, it was a supreme treasure!
However, when they thought back to that lightning strike, they shivered in fear!
It was better not to think about this supreme treasure!
“It’s not wise to take a supreme treasure from the Taixi Faction!” The people like Xue Daolv and Ye Songtao were still logical and advised Fang Qi.
“What’s so good about this pile of rusty metal?” Fang Qi picked up the cauldron and was about to toss it out.
After a second thought, he decided not to give it back to Feng Xi.
He tossed it onto the counter and said, “Xiaoyue, you can play with it if you want.”
Jiang Xiaoyue was at a loss for words, and everyone else was dumbfounded.
That cauldron shivered on the counter.
