Chapter 598 - 90: Encountering the Local Tyrants
"I came here to participate in the competition, which was the original purpose of my trip," Qi said.
"It can only be this way, starting tomorrow, Gu Feng, accompany Qi to the Sky Wings Arena for the individual competition, and also look for opportunities for magic healing. Lingling and I will wander around the city to see if we can buy some medicinal herbs and magic materials at low prices and process them into intermediate to advanced magic medicine," Yun Sheng also wanted to visit the arena, but the tickets were expensive, and currently, all four of them were poor, and couldn’t afford the expenses for four people.
Yun Sheng had already thought it through, the best chance she had to make a good profit right now was to exploit magic medicine like the Moon God’s Praise to flip without investment.
After resting overnight in the inn, Gu Feng and Qi went to the Sky Wings Arena early in the morning.
Meanwhile, Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling strolled around in Sky Wing City.
Before leaving the inn, Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling had already inquired that there was a specialized marketplace in Sky Wing City that sold herbs and magic materials, and Yun Sheng planned to quickly make a batch of elixirs and magic potions to earn some money.
At the marketplace, they purchased some fresh medicinal herbs at a relatively low price.
Yun Sheng then returned to the inn, and in just one afternoon, she had produced a batch of mid-grade elixirs and magic potions.
It’s not that Yun Sheng couldn’t make high-grade magic potions, but given her current strength in Sky Wing City, she was at the lowest tier. Rashly selling high-level elixirs and magic potions could attract unnecessary trouble.
Yun Sheng was very cautious about this; she wouldn’t rashly expose her strength until she fully understood the true distribution of power in Sky Wing City.
Although her Beast Language Ring had been taken away, Yun Sheng’s Elf Karma Fire was still ready to use, allowing her to easily produce mid-grade magic potions.
Yun Sheng was confident that in a place like Sky Wing City, the daily demand for magic potions and elixirs was undoubtedly substantial.
Yun Sheng also discovered many clinics in the locality and believed that as long as they were clinics, they wouldn’t refuse good quality elixirs and magic medicine.
Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling each took a batch of magic potions and elixirs and went to sell them at shops in Sky Wing City.
Yun Sheng chose a clinic with a fairly large front. As soon as she entered, Yun Sheng asked, "Excuse me, do you purchase mid-grade Hemostatic Agents and Meditation Water?"
These two were Yun Sheng’s specialties.
"No, no, get out immediately," upon hearing that Yun Sheng was not there to seek medical treatment but to sell elixirs and magic potions, the doctor inside reacted as if seeing a ghost and hurried Yun Sheng out.
Yun Sheng tried several other clinics, only to be turned away from each one without exception.
Having no choice, Yun Sheng had to return to the inn first. As soon as she got back, Donghuang Lingling was also just returning, with a look of despondency, indicating that her magic potions didn’t sell either.
"This is killing me, those people are so unreasonable," Donghuang Lingling said as she returned, looking even worse than Yun Sheng.
Her clothes were dirty, her hair messy, and her face flushed with anger, clearly having had a conflict with someone.
What Yun Sheng encountered at various clinics had happened to Donghuang Lingling too.
But seeing that her potions weren’t selling, Donghuang Lingling opted for another method.
Coming from a princess background, after being turned away at several clinics, she was very upset and thought, since no one was buying, why not just sell them on the streets herself.
After all, so many martial artists and mages were entering and leaving Sky Wing City for the competition, there had to be some who needed it.
Donghuang Lingling did indeed manage to sell a few bottles of magic potions successfully, but the good times didn’t last long as a group of people suddenly surrounded her.
Among those people were Mages and Martial Artists; they gave Donghuang Lingling a lesson and smashed all her Magic Potions to pieces.
"What is the background of that group? How dare they make trouble on the street?" Yun Sheng was furious after seeing Donghuang Lingling’s condition.
As she was treating Donghuang Lingling, she inquired about the whole story.
"I’m not sure either. Their cultivation is noteworthy, but their actions were like those of thugs. I’ve inquired around, and it turns out that in Sky Wing City, neither Magic Potions nor Elixirs can be sold privately," Donghuang Lingling was enraged but not foolish; knowing she was no match for them, she fled back.
With so many people on the streets, no one dared to help her.
However, she inquired privately and found out that the group is a notorious power in Sky Wing City.
It turns out that although Sky Wing City was established by the Sky Wing City Lord, he has never appeared in the city.
With many masters in the city and a diverse range of people coming and going, gradually, several major powers have formed within Sky Wing City.
Among these powers, the largest is Treasure Pavilion.
Treasure Pavilion is the largest auction house in the city, backed by the Sky Wing City Lord himself, so the other major powers in the city all dare not offend Treasure Pavilion.
However, Treasure Pavilion does not usually interfere with other affairs of the city. As for the remaining major forces, one of them is called Dark Night Pavilion.
This Dark Night Pavilion controls the sale of all Magic Potions and Elixirs throughout Sky Wing City.
In Sky Wing City, the production and sale of all Elixirs and Magic Potions must be approved by the Black Medicine Store.
"No wonder we only saw the most basic medicinal herbs and magic materials at the market earlier," Yun Sheng found that the materials she purchased at the local market were all of the lowest grade; these materials, if not for a nationally renowned Doctor like Yun Sheng, could not possibly be refined into Magic Potions and Elixirs above the intermediate level.
Meanwhile, Gu Feng and Qi Ye, who had been out all day, returned.
To Yun Sheng’s surprise, Gu Feng was also covered in injuries, supported by Qi, as they walked in.
"How did you end up like this!" Donghuang Lingling, momentarily forgetting her own injuries, showed a face full of concern.
Lately, because of her own marriage issues, Donghuang Lingling had been somewhat indifferent towards Gu Feng.
The silly boy Gu Feng had even asked Yun Sheng about it several times privately; knowing the details, Yun Sheng didn’t have the heart to hurt Gu Feng and chose not to tell him clearly.
Gu Feng was already full of frustration, but upon hearing Donghuang Lingling’s concern, all his grievances disappeared.
With a bitter face, he kept yelling in pain, looking pitifully at Donghuang Lingling like a helpless little white rabbit.
If it was a little girl acting like this, there might have been some effect of eliciting pity, but when a stout man like Gu Feng did it, it lost all sense of patheticness, causing Yun Sheng and Qi to barely hold back their laughter.
Fortunately, Lingling, looking frantic, didn’t mock Gu Feng like usual.
"It was that damned Dark Night Pavilion, they actually banned outsiders from treating people in the Sky Wings Arena," Gu Feng was supported by Qi and sat down on the bed.
