“Sir, my pills and Spirit Stones are still inside…!”

“What pills and Spirit Stones? You better scram if you don’t want to die!”

“Sir, you can’t take my Alchemy Furnace! That’s my livelihood…”

Whoosh!

A cold, blue, light-outpouring flying sword, flew out of the storage bag of one of the cultivators at the Qi Cultivation Stage and pointed at Xu Mu’s chest.

“Dare to yell again, and I’ll slaughter you, believe it or not! Hmph!”

Xu Mu stood in the same spot with an ugly look on his face, protecting his wife, and they stood rooted, allowing the others to ransack and then calmly leave.

Once the robber-like patrol soldiers had left, Xu Mu’s face revealed a faint smile.

He had anticipated that these people wouldn’t let things rest, so he had hidden all his valuables beforehand. The items in the storage bag were just to deceive them.

Even the Pill Furnace was newly bought.

“These guys have no intention of investigating the killer at all, it’s blatant robbery under the pretext of a search!”

He heard the resulting noise and crying reverberating all around the alley.

Clearly, his family was not the only one affected.

Life is indeed ruthless as a comb’s teeth!

Only after tireless searches and nearly seven to eight days of alterations did things subside.

However, no one suspected him form the beginning to the end.

After all, it was hard for anyone to link the gruesome scene of the patrol team’s route with an Alchemist in his sixties who was at the midpoint of Qi Cultivation.

The only person who might connect these two events was Ye Yingying!

However, Ye Yingying was well-behaved and never took the initiative to inquire about such matters.

The storm had seemingly passed, but Xu Mu wasn’t in a hurry to retrieve the hidden items. He waited another half month to ensure absolute safety and only then did he sneak out in the dead of night.

He started to tally his gains!

A total of twenty-seven storage bags!

This wasn’t all there was, but given the urgency of the situation, he had only taken the ones that were visible.

The most valuable was undoubtedly Luo Xu’s which Xu Mu decided to check last.

Opening the first one, there were only twenty-three Lower-grade Spirit Stones and two bottles of Fasting Pills.

“Broke-ass!”

Xu Mu cursed and then opened the next one.

Inside was a tier one attack Magic Artifact, a dozen or so talismans, and five Lower-grade Spirit Stones!

“Not bad!”

In this way, one after another, the twenty-six storage bags contributed a total of five hundred and ninety-one Lower-grade Spirit Stones, twelve attack Magic Artifacts, two defensive Magic Artifacts, hundreds of talismans with various uses, over twenty bottles of pills, mainly Fasting Pills and Qi Gathering Pills, and some miscellaneous daily necessities.

For these results, Xu Mu was quite satisfied.

After all, these people originally were low-level cultivators like Jia An. It was reasonable for them to have these savings.

The real significant items were to be found in Captain Luo’s possession.

Rubbing his hands together, Xu Mu refined Luo Xu’s storage bag, pouring out all the items inside.

A large pile of Lower-grade Spirit Stones!

A small pile of Medium-grade Spirit Stones!

Two flying swords!

Of the two, one had been picked up by Xu Mu on the battlefield, and as for the silver armor, it was not only damaged, but also could cause trouble. Xu Mu didn’t take it.

Eight Vestment robes!

Over a dozen bottles of pills!

Over a dozen talismans!

Two jars of Spiritual Wine!

One book!

“I’ve hit the jackpot this time!”

Looking at the pile of items, Xu Mu was extremely excited.

Not to mention the various other items, just the Spirit Stones alone consisted of forty-three Medium-grade Spirit Stones and six hundred and fifteen Lower-grade Spirit Stones. This was equivalent to his income for the better part of the year.

With these Spirit Stones, he wouldn’t have to worry about money for a long period.

The two flying swords also gave him a pleasant surprise.

They were all top-tier, tier three flying swords engraved with twenty formations. If he were to sell them, he could get at least ten Medium-grade Spirit Stones just for one.

Regrettably, he couldn’t use or sell them.

It could spell trouble if the Luo Family identified them.

The eight robes were equally valuable, with one being tier three, four being tier two and three being tier one. If sold, they could also fetch more than ten Medium-grade Spirit Stones.

Unfortunately, like the flying swords, they cannot be sold or used in White Stone City.

The eleven bottles of pills were four Qi Boosting Pills, two Soul Accumulating Pills, one Return Yuan Pill, one Blood Nourishing Pill, and three Yellow Dragon Pills.

Qi Boosting Pill is a tier two pill with a similar function to Qi Gathering Pill.

Soul Accumulating Pill is also a tier two pill that directly helps in increasing cultivation level when consumed.

With these two bottles of pills, his speed for breaking through to the sixth level of Qi Cultivation can be greatly increased.

The Return Yuan Pill and the Blood Nourishing Pill are used for healing. One treats internal injuries, and the other treats external injuries. Both are extremely precious tier three pills.

However, for Xu Mu, the bigger surprise was the Yellow Dragon Pill used in place of food.

The Yellow Dragon Pill is a type of tier three pill whose effectiveness is equivalent to a super-enhanced Fasting Pill. Even a practitioner in the later stages of Qi Cultivation can remain without hunger for ten days after consuming one.

Originally, Xu Mu was worried about which kind of pill he should use to replace the Fasting Pill when he broke through to the master level of the Thunderbolt Sword Skill.

And these three jars of Yellow Dragon Pills are undoubtedly the best substitutes.

Within the entire White Stone City, there are so few tier three alchemists that one could count them on one hand, and they all serve the Foundation Establishment Family. Thus, tier three pills are generally not circulated in the market.

Because large families themselves don’t have enough, how could they bring them out to sell?

Moreover, ordinary Loose Cultivators, can’t afford tier three pills. Only the high-tier Loose Cultivators in the late stages of Qi Cultivation can afford them, and they have plenty of avenues to procure them.

All in all, White Stone City is too small.

In the past, White Stone City was like an independent world in Xu Mu’s eyes, but in the eyes of high-tier cultivators, this was merely a backwater area..
