Chapter 197: Chapter 197

Cailian looked at Zhao Letian, first slightly startled, then she quickly came to accept it.

Even Qingluo Wine, such a precious treasure, could be generously given away by Zhao Letian, how could he lack Primordial Stones?

In fact, if she were willing to sell a pot of Qingluo Wine, she could obtain a huge amount of Primordial Stones, but Qingluo Wine is far more precious than Scorpion Grass, and since the wine was a gift from Zhao Letian, she would never sell it.

"Twelve inferior Primordial Stones? Good, good, the young man is bold."

The white-haired old man behind the counter couldn't close his mouth for smiling, the more people wanted to buy, the happier he was.

Meanwhile, many onlookers also gathered outside the shop.

"Where did this wild brat come from? Who do you think you are, this isn't your place to speak? Get lost, girl."

Ji Manli frowned her brows and looked at Zhao Letian, arrogantly yelling, with no intention of bidding against Zhao Letian; not because she couldn't afford it, but because she thought Zhao Letian wasn't worthy to compete with her.

"Merely at the Second Realm of the True Martial, who do you think you are? Get lost."

Zhao Letian bellowed, his voice carrying an underlying dragon chant, which directly blasted into Ji Manli's head, shaking her Divine Soul Power.

Ji Manli's Divine Soul was shaken, although not seriously, it still scared her into a cold sweat, making her involuntarily step back repeatedly, and her gaze towards Zhao Letian showed a color of terror.

"How insolent! To disrespect Miss Manli, you're seeking death."

"Disrespecting Miss Manli is making enemies with us; kill without mercy."

The young men who came with Ji Manli all glared furiously at Zhao Letian, their bodies radiating strong True Yuan Power, all at the Middle Stage True Martial Realm.

"Right! Kill without mercy; dare to provoke this young lady, and you all must die. Whoever kills Mu Cailian and her adulterous man for me will get a chance to be alone with me."

With the support of the crowd behind her, the fear in Ji Manli's eyes disappeared in an instant, and she coldly looked at Zhao Letian and others, her gaze venomous.

"A chance to be alone with Miss Manli?"

The young men of the Middle Stage True Martial Realm suddenly had their eyes light up, glancing at each other, none wanted to miss this opportunity.

Miss Manli is the daughter of a middle-ranked tribe leader; whoever marries her can rise to high status overnight.

In contrast, although Mu Cailian is also a stunning beauty, her background cannot compare with Ji Manli, and to please Ji Manli, they did not mind making a move against Mu Cailian.

"You want to make a move? You can try. Cailian, stand behind me."

Zhao Letian stood with his hands clasped behind his back, fearless, his face calm and composed.

Cailian nodded her head and walked behind Zhao Letian. She and her father had long known that Zhao Letian's strength was extraordinary, and she believed that Zhao Letian could definitely protect her.

"Kid, let me see what makes you qualified to be insolent in front of Miss Manli."

One of the young men at the Peak of the True Martial Fourth Realm stepped forward, his True Yuan Power surging, ready to make a move on Zhao Letian.

"Distinguished guests, please hold back from starting a fight. Our shop operates on small margins and cannot withstand the turmoil, if you must fight, please take it outside to the streets."

The white-haired old man behind the counter said with a mournful face.

"Come out and fight me."

The youth at the True Martial Fourth Realm Peak glanced at the white-haired old man, furrowed his brows, and said to Zhao Letian.

"Why should I be afraid?"

Zhao Letian spoke indifferently, directly walked outside with Cailian, and avoided provoking the white-haired old man behind the counter, who seemed harmless but possessed the powerful cultivation of the High-level True Martial Realm.

Ji Manli and the group of young warriors from the Middle Stage True Martial Realm also quickly followed and surrounded Zhao Letian and his companion.

"Kid, prepare to die."

Having reached the street, the youth from the True Martial Fourth Realm Peak took out a curved blade with a cold murderous intent in his eyes, intending to kill Zhao Letian and Mu Cailian to gain Ji Manli's favor.

As for the other young men, they were not in a hurry to make a move, preferring to observe first and intervene at a crucial moment if necessary.

Unexpectedly, just when the tension was at its peak, Mu Shan, who had also arrived at the market, suddenly rushed in.

"Mu Shan, get back here." Yoursupportat*keepstheseriesgoing.

Not far away, Mu Yuzhu frowned, her face stern as she coldly shouted, secretly cursing Mu Shan as an inept fool.

On the way here, in order to completely extinguish Mu Shan's affection for Mu Cailian, Mu Yuzhu even allowed him some liberties, but as soon as Mu Shan saw Mu Cailian, he was utterly infatuated again, causing Mu Yuzhu to seriously doubt her own charm; could she really be so inferior to Mu Cailian?

"Oh? Another fool rushing to die? At your age, with just the pitiable cultivation of the True Martial Third Realm, do you think you're fit to play the hero and save the beauty?"

The youth at the True Martial Fourth Realm Peak scornfully looked at Mu Shan and mockingly said.

"Exactly, this guy looks like he's over thirty yet only has the cultivation of the True Martial Third Realm. Such worthless talent."

"Nothing but trash, daring to seek death, let's oblige him."

The other young men around also started mocking.

"I have no intention of fighting with you young masters. I just wanted to remind you that Cailian is a woman valued by Lord Wusu'er of the Black Hawk Tribe. Whoever dares to touch her, Lord Wusu'er will not let it go lightly. As for that boy, he's just an unknown, background-less bastard; you can do as you please with him."

Hearing the humiliating taunts, Mu Shan's face turned beet red, but he dared not retaliate and simply bowed his head in submission, stressing Zhao Letian's status as he spoke, as if urging those youths to quickly kill Zhao Letian.

"Black Hawk Tribe? Wusu'er? Never heard of them."

"No need to waste words on him; just kill them both."

The group of youths disdainfully said. The Holy River region was vast, hosting many tribes like the Black Hawk Tribe, so it was normal they hadn't heard of it.

"Actually, I have heard of the Black Hawk Tribe; it's merely a moderate tribe and certainly no threat to me. Also, I heard that the Black Hawk Tribe is conquering far and wide, and your Baihua Tribe is their next target. Yet you have the gall to use your enemy's name to scare us; how shameless."

Ji Manli coldly smirked, looking down on Mu Shan.

The shame on Mu Shan's face deepened; he detested the Black Hawk Tribe and Wusu'er as well, but helplessly lacking strength, he was forced to invoke the enemy's name.

"As expected, just a waste. Killing someone like you would dirty my hands, get lost."

The youth at the True Martial Fourth Realm Peak, holding the curved blade, coldly stated.
