Over The World, Beyond Heaven

"Who is that young man? He dares to have a problem with Young Master Mou-Ren-Yang?!"

"How pitiful! If he isn't equally powerful, this young man will certainly suffer a cruel fate. Although the trade zone has a rule against fighting, once outside the zone, one can do whatever they want but will have to bear the consequences themselves. And Young Master Mou-Ren-Yang won't have any problem paying the damages!"

"That's right! If it were me, I wouldn't dare do something like that. It seems that this young man is an outlander. Otherwise, he would know how great Mou Clan is and who should and shouldn't be messed with!"

People started to criticize again after seeing Zheng-Fu do such a disrespectful thing to Mou-Ren-Yang. It was obvious that most people were certain that Zheng-Fu would definitely not survive a cruel fate at the hands of Mou-Ren-Yang.

However, the incident was not only within the eyes of the people in the encirclement. Several other people were watching from the surrounding area.

In a restaurant on the tenth floor of a tall building…

"I never thought someone would dare to provoke Mou Clan's Third Young Master Mou-Ren-Yang. I really want to know who that man is." A beautiful and well-built young woman in a light pink dress spoke to the other three equally beautiful young women after the event they were watching ended.

"I have never seen him before. Judging from his clothes, he must be an ordinary person from another place. Otherwise, he would not dare to make my younger brother angry," the young woman in a dark purple dress said. She was Mou-Xiao-Qing, Mou-Ren-Yang's elder sister.

"It should be like that! By the way, why do you care about such trivial matters, Young Miss Ma? Aren't we here to meet the grandmasters of music and painting? I think we should be more concerned about who will be accepted as their disciples!" Another young woman spoke with an arrogant and unfriendly face. She seemed to dislike the young woman in pink who was called 'Young Miss Ma,' likely due to the conflict between their families.

"You guys may concern yourselves with that matter as you please. For me, what's happening downstairs is much more interesting. If you guys want to pay attention to the grandmasters, that's up to you. But I think the things that happened down there are much more interesting. Even if I can't become a disciple of any grandmaster, I'm sure that my musical and painting skills are not inferior at all!" Young Miss Ma spoke indifferently. She never wanted to come there. If it were not for her father's orders, she would definitely not have come to such a boring place.

"What you said is right. Your musical and painting skills are far superior to anyone else here. But you probably don't want to miss this opportunity, right?"

Tch!

Although Young Miss of Ma Clan said that she did not care, she could not refuse. After all, she was sent there to make the grandmasters accept her as a disciple. Or if she were not accepted as a disciple, she would have to get at least one painting.

Back at Zheng-Fu…

After getting another Medal of Copying, he did not immediately leave the trade zone. He continued to browse. The trade zone had a variety of items for sale. Although they were generally just ordinary items, if he were lucky, he might come across another magic treasure like the Medal of Copying. Therefore, Zheng-Fu wanted to check around first before returning.

Moreover, he was not in a rush or had any other business at that time, other than collecting data and following up on news from the Demon Races to see what had happened after the incident in Black Rock City and the other three second-tier cities.

Younger Brother!

"Judging from your appearance, you don't seem to be a citizen of this city, right? Then, should I recommend the shops here? I won't charge you much."

Hah!?

Suddenly, a thin middle-aged man with slightly buck teeth approached Zheng-Fu and offered his services by recommending shops.

"Yes, I'm from another district. I have only recently arrived in this city. And it would be great if someone could guide me. By the way, how much will Elder Brother charge?" Zheng-Fu immediately checked the middle-aged man and found that he was just an intermediate Deity Soul Stage cultivator. He could be considered an ordinary person. So, Zheng-Fu accepted and introduced himself as a newcomer.

"Normally, I charge two hundred Eternal Coins. But since I feel compatible with you, I'll charge you only one hundred and fifty Eternal Coins!" The middle-aged man replied. The price he asked for was not much for Zheng-Fu, but for ordinary people, it was quite expensive.

"No need to give me a discount! I'll pay you two hundred. Just recommend me some shops that sell rare antiques!" Zheng-Fu knew that this man was not lying or trying to trick him about the price because his face was quite serious when he said two hundred.

Umm!

"Younger Brother, you can trust me. I, Mu Yuan, will definitely not let you down!"

The middle-aged man was very happy that Zheng-Fu accepted his offer. In this kind of business, it was hard to find customers. Because most of the rich people usually had their own subordinates to act as guides. As for the outlanders, they did not come there very often. Especially when the unrest broke out in Black Rock City and the other three second-tier cities, almost no one came to visit. So, he was very delighted. Furthermore, Zheng-Fu did not accept such a discount.

"First, let me ask you, Younger Brother. What kind of antiques do you want? General items or magic treasures?" Mu-Yuan asked before introducing the shops to Zheng-Fu. There were many general antique shops in the trade zone but only a few antique treasure shops.

"I want to see them all because I like antiques. Let's start with common items, Elder Brother Mu-Yuan!" Zheng-Fu thought for a moment before answering. He thought that if he were too specific, he might miss out on something good. So, it would be best to see everything.

All right!

"Then let's start with Treasure Cave Shop. There are many antiques there. And if you don't like anything they have, then we can go to the next shop!" Mu-Yuan quickly thought before recommending the first shop that was closest to them.

Good!

Five minutes later, at the entrance of Treasure Cave Shop…

"Ah! Is that Mu-Yuan? You've got a customer today?"

When Zheng-Fu and Mu-Yuan arrived at Treasure Cave Shop, the large, fierce middle-aged man standing guard at the entrance greeted Mu-Yuan with a friendly smile.

"Yes, Zong-Bao. It's been a few days since I have had a customer. Finally, I got one. He's looking for antiques, so I bring him here," Mu-Yuan replied in a friendly manner towards the other party as well. It showed that the two of them had a good relationship.

"Oh really?! Then please come in." Zong-Bao glanced at Zheng-Fu for a moment before turning back to look at Mu-Yuan and said, "When you're done with your work, let's go have a drink!"

Of course!

"When I'm done with my business, I'll definitely come to see you!"

After that, Mu-Yuan took Zheng-Fu inside the Treasure Cave Shop.

Hah!?

'At first, I thought this shop would be just a small one because I saw that the guard at the entrance was only at the initial Deity Apprentice Stage. But inside the shop, there are also the intermediate Heavenly Deity Originate Stage protectors guarding it.'

Upon entering inside, Zheng-Fu could feel the true protectors of the shop. Most of them were initial to intermediate Heavenly Deity Originate Stage cultivators, totaling six people, and the strongest one was at the seventh level of the Heavenly Deity Originate Stage.

"Welcome, Master. What are you looking for, sir? You can tell me. I know all the products in this shop very well. I guarantee that you'll not waste your time!" Suddenly, a beautiful and well-proportioned young woman walked up to Zheng-Fu and Mu-Yuan, and she asked Zheng-Fu with a charming smile.

Umm...

"I don't have any special needs. I just like antiques. So, Miss, can you take me to see the goods in your shop?" Zheng-Fu replied with a smile to the young woman.

All right, sir!

"Then, Young Master, please follow me." Young Woman blushed slightly when she saw Zheng-Fu's smile. However, since it was during work hours, she suppressed her feelings and focused on her work. Before she turned to tell Mu-Yuan, "As for you… you have to stay here!"

No problem!

Mu-Yuan answered obediently. It was normal for the guide to wait outside because they did not come as customers. And Zheng-Fu did not think much of it. He thought that this was normal there.

"Our Treasure Cave Shop has a large number of antiques excavated from ancient ruins that are hundreds to thousands of years old. Although most of them are not magic treasures, they're considered items worth buying and keeping to enhance your prestige, sir. And the first item I'd like to present to Young Master is the 'Two-thousand-year-old double-headed dragon pattern pot'. It is both beautiful and imposing, with the two-headed dragon pattern painted on it."

The young woman brought Zheng-Fu to stop in front of the first display cabinet, which had a large pot that was over a meter tall. It looked very powerful and valuable with its large double-headed dragon pattern. But that was for ordinary people, not Zheng-Fu.

"Young Master, are you interested, sir?" the young woman asked Zheng-Fu expectantly. If she could get Zheng-Fu to buy it, she would also get a share of the sale.

"I'm sorry, but this isn't what I want!" However, Zheng-Fu refused and crushed her hopes. He did not know why he would buy that pot when he could create something like that pot himself and make it look mysterious as well. Or maybe he could make it even better and more interesting.

Hmm...

"Then that's all right, sir. Let's go to look at the next one!" The young woman secretly let out a slightly disappointed sigh. She thought that her presentation would help her sell that pot that day. But even if she could not sell the first one, she did not feel sad because there were still many items waiting. And she thought that there would definitely be one that she could sell.

Umm...
