Chapter 4 - Vegetables are all you need for cultivation

In the heart of the treacherous territory controlled by the Blood Bear Gang, the mystical "Supreme Store" stood resilient, defying the dangers that surrounded it. As dawn's light bathed the landscape, the boy, now the sole custodian of the legendary emporium, prepared for the day's business.

First through the door, with an air that seemed to command respect from even the most formidable adversaries, was Xia Tian. The second young master of the Xia branch family, a renowned genius with a penchant for the exotic. Unfazed by the perilous surroundings, he strolled in, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

"No need for the usual pleasantries, my friend. I require your divine ice cream today," Xia Tian declared with a confident grin.

The boy, understanding the routine, nodded in agreement. "Certainly, Xia Tian. You're in for a treat today."

As Xia Tian indulged in the heavenly sweetness, a second distinguished figure entered the store. A man of alchemical mastery, known far and wide as the "Alchemy Emperor." His achievements in the arcane art of alchemy had reshaped the very foundations of the discipline.

The Alchemy Emperor, not one to be confined by societal norms, looked around the store with a curiosity that transcended the boundaries of his esteemed reputation. His gaze settled on the humble vegetables neatly arranged on a shelf.

"Vegetables," he muttered to himself, as if contemplating the mysteries of the universe. "Let's see if these can stand up to the rumors."

The boy, acknowledging the eminent visitor, simply nodded. The Alchemy Emperor, a regular patron who found the store's vegetables to be high-grade ingredients for his concoctions, made his selection with the practiced ease of a master.

Meanwhile, the door swung open once more, revealing two middle-aged men in luxurious robes adorned with the symbol of the Yunzhong Sect. These were no ordinary individuals; they were inner elders of the sect, powerful cultivators with discerning tastes.

The boy, managing the store with a calm demeanor, welcomed them with a respectful nod. The elders, with an air of authority, browsed the shelves with the ease of those accustomed to rare treasures.

One elder remarked, "Ah, the Yunzhong Sect is grateful for the treasures your store provides. We shall partake in the usual today."

The other elder, his eyes narrowing in appreciation, added, "Indeed, these legendary items have become essential to our cultivation."

As the day unfolded, the store buzzed with activity. Xia Tian enjoyed his ice cream, the Alchemy Emperor explored the wonders of vegetables, and the Yunzhong Sect elders indulged in the mystical offerings. The boy, though young, managed the diverse needs of his high-profile clientele with the finesse of a seasoned merchant.

In the midst of this bustling sanctuary, the boy couldn't help but marvel at the fusion of various worlds within the confines of his modest store. Sentient cosmic forces seemed to guide the interactions, weaving a tale of commerce and cultivation that transcended the ordinary.

lder Wu and his nephew, Liang Wu, approached the mysterious "Supreme Store." The air crackled with tension as they cautiously entered, their eyes scanning the unfamiliar surroundings.

Elder Wu, a seasoned cultivator with a reputation for wisdom and power, couldn't help but feel an headache at the location of the store

"Uncle can you see that tiny, inconspicuous shop over there? The one tucked away in the darkest, most dangerous corner of the city, controlled by the notorious Blood Bear Gang? Yes, that one. "

"Liang Wu , let me tell you why this is the epitome of absurdity in the realm of business logic.Who in their right mind sets up a store in the most treacherous, blood-soaked alley of the entire city?" Elder Wu criticized with a dark face

Old Wu wasn't wrong either after all It's like saying, "Screw the safe neighborhoods; I want to challenge myself daily with a potential stabbing or two by staying in the middle of the most dangerous area in the entire city, surrounded by thugs, bloodthirsty gangs, and heaven-knows-what-else. And what do I have with me? A little store, smack dab in the epicenter of chaos, Now, don't get Old Wu wrong. He is all for entrepreneurial spirit, but seriously, what were these twins thinking? "Hey, let's set up shop in the most perilous part of the city, where people are more likely to stab you than say hello. Brilliant!"

This is not some quaint village where you can sell your grandmother's homemade dumplings. This is where cultivators fly on swords, summon magical treasures, and engage in epic battles. And what do we get in the midst of all this cosmic drama? A store that sells vegetables!

In a place where people are wielding flying swords and harnessing the power of magical treasures, who in the world is going to stop by a store to pick up a carrot? Is there a cultivator out there thinking, "You know what would really enhance my battle skills? Some fresh produce!" because apparently, when he's in the middle of a life-or-death struggle, what you need is a carrot to give you an edge. After all one has all the timein the world for a eating a carrot when you're dodging spiritual swords and fending off rogue cultivators?

Old Wu couldn't even imagine the logic behind this business plan. "Hey, let's open up a shop in the Blood Bear Gang's territory. I'm sure those fierce thugs are just dying for a radish or maybe a piece of cabbage. Oh, and let's throw in a single portion of cola for good measure. Who needs magical treasures when you can have a carrot, right?"

Even if you ignore the location matters, did the twins even consider the target audience here? Thugs don't want vegetables; they want flying swords and mystical artifacts.

So, here they are, in the heart of chaos, surrounded by cultivators with the power to reshape reality, and what's are they searching for, a vegetable stand even the Blood Bear Gang is scratching their heads, wondering what in the world these twins are thinking.

In the immortal words of ancient Chinese wisdom, "When surrounded by cultivators with celestial might, perhaps selling carrots is not quite right."

this shop defies every rule of business logic known to cultivators. It's like they actively sought out the most inconvenient, dangerous, and ludicrous location just to sell their mystical wares.

"This store is definitely not ordinary..." Elder Wu began to express his suspicion as they browsed through the store but before he could finish his sentence, his keen eyes locked onto a figure that sent shivers down his spine—the legendary Alchemy Emperor.

The elder immediately froze, his usually composed demeanor shattered, as if he were a mouse that had just encountered a formidable cat. A profound sense of awe and reverence enveloped him, rendering him momentarily speechless he had met the Alchemist emperor a few times before but he did not expect to meet him in the store at all

Liang Wu, observing his father's uncharacteristic reaction, couldn't fathom the cause of such astonishment. "Father, what is it? Why are you—"

"Na… Na…" Elder Wu stammered, struggling to find words. His mind seemed to have been gripped by an otherworldly force, rendering him temporarily incapacitated.

Meanwhile, amidst the curious atmosphere, Liang Wu noticed two distinguished figures dressed in luxurious robes, bearing the symbol of the faraway Yunzhong Sect—Elders Lang Shun and Yu Ming. The Yunzhong Sect, a force to be reckoned with, had graced the Supreme Store with their presence.

Liang Wu, bewildered by the unexpected visitors, approached his father. "Father, do you know these elders from the Yunzhong Sect?"

Elder Wu, still recovering from the shock of encountering the Alchemy Emperor, managed to nod faintly. "Yes, they are elders of the Yunzhong Sect. This is beyond my comprehension. What brings such esteemed individuals to this humble establishment?"

As the perplexed father and son duo deliberated, the Alchemy Emperor, having noticed their presence, approached with a knowing smile. "Ah if it isn't Elder Wu,what an unexpected pleasure. You've chosen an excellent place to shop for your needs."

Elder Wu, regaining some semblance of composure, greeted the Alchemy Emperor with a respectful bow. "This junior greets the Alchemy Emperor, it is an honor to be in your presence. What brings you to this store?"

The Alchemy Emperor chuckled. "I come for these exquisite vegetables." He gestured towards the verdant treasures on the shelves. "I've made several high-grade pills with these, and the results have been extraordinary."

Elder Wu, now intrigued, examined the vegetables with newfound interest. The mundane seemed to hold untold potential under the Alchemy Emperor's discerning gaze.

Liang Wu, eager to understand the situation, joined the conversation. "High-grade pills from vegetables? That's incredible!"

The Alchemy Emperor nodded. "Indeed, young cultivator. The balance and purity of these vegetables are unparalleled. They elevate the essence of alchemy to new heights."

As the conversation unfolded, Elder Wu, still grappling with the astonishment of the day, made an unusual request. "Liang Wu, my son, purchase a substantial quantity of these vegetables. I want my daughter to eat them every day."

Liang Wu, taken aback by his father's sudden directive, chuckled nervously. "Father, vegetables for daily consumption? Isn't that a bit—"

The Alchemy Emperor interjected with a wise smile. "Young man, the essence of cultivation lies not only in profound elixirs but also in the purity of one's essence. These vegetables have a unique vitality that can benefit even the most seasoned cultivator."

Elder Wu, swayed by the Alchemy Emperor's words, insisted, "Liang Wu, trust in the wisdom of the Alchemy Emperor. Purchase the vegetables. It might be the key to our family's prosperity."

And so, amidst the enigmatic ambiance of the Supreme Store, Elder Wu and Liang Wu found themselves embarking on a journey that transcended the ordinary—a journey fueled by vegetables, alchemy, and the unexpected convergence of forces beyond their comprehension.
