THE SYSTEM IS NOT MINE

"Keep it aside."

"Move it with care"

Mutai shouted while looking at the people unloading multiple wagons full of spices.

Yan was on one of those wagons; next to him, Hua Fain was helping.

"Brother Shui, these spices are a speciality of the Shin Kingdom."

"Isn't Shin our enemy? " Yan raised his brows.

"No, they are not. The enemy is not Shin but the royal family of Shin." Hua Fain said.

"The common people have nothing to do with the war. It's the people in power who want the war."

"As merchants, we often trade with hostile nations, being a merchant is not just about becoming rich but bonding people, culture, and regions together with goods."

Hua gazed the sky far few moments long and lost in his thoughts.

"Understood, but what's so special about these spices?" Yan said as he brought Hua Fain back to the present.

“Their smell"

"The speciality is their smell."

"It stays on you for two days after you come into contact with them, no matter how many times you bathe.”

Yan glared at Hua Fain. “Who would even buy these?”

“There are many nobles who don't like to bathe,” Hua Fain replied.

Yan turned his attention back to work.

“Brother, it's not like they can't be used in dishes.”

“They are used, but I have never tasted them.”

“Brother, are you listening?” Hua Fain continued talking while Yan ignored him and focused on unloading the spices.

After they completed unloading the spices, four more wagons arrived, and along with the wagons two hundred people came in.

Forty of them even released Qi Foundation aura, and one of them emitted Core Formation aura.

"Welcome."

"Welcome."

"I am Mutai."

Mutai came forward and extended his hand.

"Jo Chua," the man lifted his hand and shook Mutai's.

"Have you faced any trouble during the journey?" Mutai asked.

If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

"Nothing major, but few eyes took note of us, I believe it's them," The man replied.

"Well, we will know tomorrow," Mutai said.

"By the way, where is sir Fan Yu ?" Mutai asked.

"Sir Fan Yu is busy with other affairs, he will arrive tomorrow,"the core formation man replied.

"That's sad." Mutai said. "Sir Chu Feng has prepared a special feast for you all today, please come in, I will show you the rooms arranged for you all to stay as well."

Then Mutai led the way, as the men of Fan Yu followed.

Right after they left, "Listen guys, we have work to do, " Hua Fain called out while pointing towards the four wagons.

"Brother Hua, I am tired," one man complained.

"Me too," Another said as well.

"Come on guys, this is the last one," Hua Fain took the steps forward, and inserted his hand into the wagon's grain and then pulled out a green liquid bottle.

Others immediately followed and started unloading them.

Then, as usual, they took the bottles to the underground prison and arranged them in the secret room.

While returning, Yan deliberately slowed down and came last. He glanced at one of the sleeping prisoners, then at the collar on the neck.

It was small, but Yan could clearly see several messy engraving of Dark Letter from the Ten Letters on the collar.

Yan reached out to touch it.

"I would not try touching that collar if I were you," the prisoner who was next to the sleeping prisoner said.

Yan glanced at that person and asked "Why?"

"Shui."

"Shui."

Before that prisoner could answer, Yan glanced up as Hua Fain's voice came from upstairs, then Yan looked at the prisoner and the collar, before stepping onto the steps.

"Brother Shui, hurry up, I thought you fainted there" When Yan climbed halfway up, he met Hua Fain.

"No..,.you fainted the other day." Yan said.

"Hurry up! Everyone is waiting for you," Hua Fain dodged the conversation.

"These clothes look a little tight."

"But they look cool."

"The new guy is here, someone help him out once he gets the clothes."

When Yan walked out, he was greeted by the merchants wearing red dresses.

Then Hua Fain came forward carrying similar red clothes and gave it to Yan.

"Try this out, we will be wearing this tomorrow." Hua Fain handed the clothes to Yan.

Yan changed into them, but did not find anything out of the ordinary with them, but he felt like there was some purpose behind it.

"They fit you well, Shui." Hua said.

"Thank you, but what's so special tomorrow?" Yan asked in a low pitch.

"Oh! About that !"

" I can't tell you to u right now, Sir Chu Feng ordered me to tell you tomorrow "

"But it's a really special day, you can look forward to it."

Hua patted Yan.

Somewhere in Trade Miller City, Around five people gathered around Pink-robed man, two were women and three were men.

One woman carried a bow, and the other woman carried no weapon.

The men carried swords, but each wore different attires, one wore black and yellow attire, one gray colored and the other one had black color with silver strips.

"Today, A lot of people have arrived at Chu Feng's, is he tightening his forces?" The black and yellow attire man spoke.

"Don't worry, follow my plan, we will wait for an opportunity, and when we get that, it does not matter how many forces he has got." The Pink robed man spoke.

The yellow and black attired man did not speak further.

"Well, just a reminder, my Spring Autumn Sect is contributing more than anyone's sect here so," The black strip man spoke.

"Bua Ling, Shut up! You don't have to say it all the time," the woman carrying the bow looked at him.

Meanwhile, several miles away, on the outskirts of Rochi Town..

The man in blue robes stood at the front, he carried a rose, and smiled, and then he turned toward the black clothed men behind him, "Since you all arrived, it's time to end Chu Feng." He announced.

"Damn, it's already time." Cha Choo cursed inwardly while standing among other black-clad men.

"Before we head to the Trade Miller, our friend Cha Choo will tell you about Mutai."

Cha Choo came forward and turned towards the other black-clad men and said,

"Chu Feng is dangerous."

"Because he got Mutai."

"Mutai is a spiritual qi late-stage core formation cultivator, but not a typical one."

"He is a monster."
