"Damn it, trouble's here. Blackberry, Tassel, let's get out of here!" Upon hearing this voice, Ye Liuyun decisively packed up the stall and ran away.

Black Bull and Liu Su quickly followed, the three of them running as fast as they could, because once the battle was over, the Heavenly Soldiers would definitely hold them accountable. If others asked them about the source of their power, these people certainly wouldn't help her hide it.
That might mean she'll have to bear all the responsibility.
It wasn't that Ye Liuyun didn't trust these buyers, but with so many people, even if most of them didn't reveal who the seller was, someone would eventually expose her. Therefore, the best option at the moment was to flee.
Soon, a golden light shot out from the city lord's mansion and finally stopped in the center of the battle. The heavenly general stood on a cloud-like mist and stared majestically at everyone below.
These cultivators from Luofan City naturally knew that the person in front of them was a Heavenly General in charge of the city's security, with the cultivation level of a Heavenly Immortal. None of them could stand against him. Besides, their strength was limited, and they had already vented their emotions after fighting for a while.
"What exactly happened? How dare you engage in a gang fight? Don't you want to live?" Tianjiang demanded angrily.
But he was actually having a headache at the moment, because there were just too many cultivators fighting. Looking around, it was clear that tens of thousands of people were involved in the fights. And that was just the obvious ones. The actual number of participants was probably at least tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands. He couldn't possibly arrest all of them and imprison them in the Heavenly Prison of Luofan City.
"General, these people blocked the road at first, and we asked them to move aside, but for some reason, they suddenly gained power and started beating us up. Look at what we've been done to!" The heavenly soldiers who had been beaten up gathered together in a sorry state.
Upon hearing this, the general glanced at the scene and then questioned the heavenly general.
"Can any of you tell me what exactly happened?"
Unfortunately, no one took the initiative to respond to him.
When no one responded, the heavenly general casually grabbed someone, and the next moment a participant was uncontrollably thrown towards the heavenly general, who grabbed his neck with one hand.
"Boy, answer me, what's going on? Where does your power come from?" the heavenly general asked, his sharp eyes fixed on the man.
But he chose a tough nut to crack.
"Hmph! I don't know." It was probably the fight just now that restored some of his self-esteem in the lower realm, and he stood up for himself for once.
The heavenly general snorted coldly when he saw that the other party did not speak, and then threw him towards the location of the heavenly soldiers.
"On charges of affray and disrupting the city's order, imprison him in the Heavenly Prison," the Heavenly General commanded.
This action immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of many monks.
"What's with all the bragging? He's just a minor celestial general. If we were in the lower realms, I wouldn't be any worse than you, and I would have done the same. So what?" A hot-tempered cultivator immediately cursed at the celestial general.
"Ah, you're just a dog of the Heavenly Court. You're not even a true god. You're just putting on airs in front of us." Someone else started cursing.
If one person starts swearing, it will definitely stir up the emotions of others; these people are not without tempers.
Tianjiang was a little stunned by the sudden barrage of insults from so many people. He couldn't understand what was wrong with these people, or why they had suddenly become so bold.
The general's face turned pale and then red as he was scolded.
"Arrest them all!" the heavenly general roared.
But all we can do is arrest them; there are far more troublemakers than heavenly soldiers.
For every tough guy, there's bound to be a coward.
"Don't arrest me! Don't arrest me! I didn't participate in the fight! You've got the wrong person, sir!" one of the cultivators who hadn't participated in the fight shouted hurriedly.
When the heavenly general saw how timid and cowardly this person was, he knew that he was the key. So, the heavenly general raised his hand and grabbed him, pulling him in front of him.
"If you say it's not you, then it's not you. Who can prove it?" Tianjiang asked with a fierce expression.
In reality, the celestial general could only intimidate at most, because as the celestial general responsible for maintaining order in Luofan City, he had to use the heavenly rules set by the Heavenly Court to trigger the residents of the celestial realm.
Despite the large number of people fighting, as long as no one dies, they will only be detained for seven or eight days at most before being released.
"Sir, it really wasn't me. You can check my memories if you don't believe me. Besides, I know who started this riot," the man said hurriedly.
Upon hearing that this person was so cowardly, the surrounding cultivators who were fighting immediately began to curse him.
"You spineless coward, so what if you go to jail for a few days? What are you afraid of? With a guts like yours, you dare to call yourself a former supreme being of the lower realm? Bah!"
The cultivator, who was being held by the heavenly general, lowered his head with an innocent expression.
Without wasting any time, Tianjiang immediately used his magic to read the man's memories. Once the memories were read, he quickly learned the cause and effect.
The heavenly general casually tossed the man to the ground, then waved his hand at the heavenly soldiers. Immediately, the images of Ye Liuyun and the other two appeared in the minds of the heavenly soldiers.
"Search the entire city for these three women and bring them back to the city lord's mansion." Tianjiang snorted coldly, then turned and left.
"Eh? My lord, are they still going to arrest them?" a heavenly soldier asked hurriedly.
The heavens rolled their eyes.
"What are you arresting? Where would you lock up so many people? Let's arrest the ringleaders first," Tianjiang said helplessly.
As the saying goes, the law does not punish the masses. The stricter the rules, the more unbelievable it becomes. Just imagine, according to the regulations, all the cultivators involved in the fight would be arrested and imprisoned. Let alone hundreds of thousands, even a few thousand or a few hundred would be enough to give the Heavenly Generals a headache.
The heavenly soldiers had no choice but to release the few people they had just captured, and then used their power to manifest the appearances of Ye Liuyun and the other two.
"Tell me, where are these three women?" the heavenly soldiers began asking the passersby.
But who would tell passersby that? There's no benefit in it for them.
"Why are you asking me? Go find it yourself."
After the fight, these cultivators all became much tougher, and they did things they wouldn't normally dare to do.
The heavenly soldiers couldn't get any information out of them, so they had no choice but to search street by street.
After the heavenly soldiers left, the cultivator who had betrayed Ye Liuyun was immediately surrounded by many hot-tempered cultivators.
"Hey? What are you guys doing? Don't do anything rash." The man swallowed hard after seeing the unfriendly looks from the crowd.
"What are you doing, you talkative bastard?" A burly man dragged him into a nearby alley, from which came cries of pain and pleas for mercy.
After a minute, the people who had been fighting finally dispersed.
The man inside the alley was lying on the ground, his face bruised and swollen, on the verge of tears.
"What does this have to do with me? I just happened to be passing by. Why is it all my fault?" the man said, looking aggrieved.
You could say he was just unlucky. Sometimes, you might not be wrong, but if what you do goes against the will of the majority, then even if you're not right, you're still wrong.
For example, most of the people participating in the fight here definitely don't want Ye Liuyun to be caught, because after they tried the pill, they found that the pill was extremely effective. If they could buy more, they would definitely need it in a critical moment.
When you encounter something that has nothing to do with you and you don't want to cause trouble, it's best not to say anything and stay as far away as possible.
Looking at Ye Liuyun and the other two, they had returned to their original forms. Ye Liuyun was sitting on the back of the black ox, with tassels perched on his shoulders. They were happily strolling down another street.
At this moment, everyone on the street was talking about the large-scale fight that had happened earlier.
Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun was counting the immortal crystals she had earned in her wallet.
"Haha, I made hundreds of thousands of immortal crystals in one go! This business is perfect! I knew it! With my abilities, Ye Liuyun, I'll never live a life of poverty, no matter where I go." Ye Liuyun chuckled.
Hundreds of thousands of immortal crystals—for cultivators in the Immortal Realm, this is enough to directly elevate them from the commoner class to the wealthy class.
By the way, the Immortal Realm isn't all made up of these ordinary gods. If you have enough money, you can buy cultivation techniques suitable for gods and earth immortals at the merchant guild in Luofan City. However, these techniques won't help you advance your cultivation level, and they're not cheap either; ordinary gods and earth immortals can't afford them.
Furthermore, the immortal techniques they can sell are generally of low quality. A low-grade divine technique will at most make you slightly more powerful than an ordinary divine being. If an ordinary divine being has 10 points of power, then a divine being who cultivates a low-grade divine technique will at most have 20 points. This improvement is negligible.
A low-grade Divine Man Technique would cost at least several hundred Immortal Crystals in some merchant guilds. Who would spend a year's income just to increase their combat power by ten points?
This is simply not worthwhile, so unless they obtain it by chance, they would definitely buy the Earth Immortal Technique or the Heaven Immortal Technique. Otherwise, it wouldn't change their current situation; at most, they would just be able to bully ordinary gods.
There are also powerful families in various parts of the Immortal Realm, but these families generally have a certain foundation in the Immortal Realm, and their ancestors may have been celestial beings.
Furthermore, immortals in the celestial realm can also reproduce, but apart from these family cultivators, ordinary immortals wouldn't dare to have children. They can't even support themselves, let alone raise children.
Moreover, according to the rules of the immortal realm, children born from the union of immortals of different levels have fixed cultivation levels.
The lowest level is the Divine Realm, which means that even the weakest cultivator in the Immortal Realm is still a Divine Realm cultivator. If they are children born to two Celestial Immortals, then they are at least at the Earth Immortal Realm.
Therefore, for ordinary immortals to have children is simply adding a burden to themselves.
"Eh? The Thousand Spirits Merchant Guild. I wonder what's inside. Let's go in and take a look," Ye Liuyun gestured to Black Bull.
However, as soon as Ye Liuyun arrived at the entrance, the guards stopped him.
"Halt, young lady. Our guild only allows humanoid immortals to enter. Turn your landline back into a human, or put it away," the guard said, blocking her way.
As soon as he said that, the black bull stood up.
"Damn it, you look down on donkeys? You think you can do it? I'll make you regret it right away," Black Bull complained unhappily.
The guard was immediately startled by the black bull.
"Alright, alright, Black Bull, you can go back now." Ye Liuyun didn't want to cause trouble for the time being, so he took Black Bull and Liusu back.
Seeing that Ye Liuyun possessed this ability, the guards knew that Ye Liuyun must be an immortal who had cultivated immortal techniques, not an ordinary immortal who was unable to use his power.
"We apologize, fairy, we are just following orders," the group quickly explained.
Ye Liuyun shook his head and then strolled inside.
Immortals in the celestial realm who have the financial means to buy things at places like merchant guilds must be quite wealthy.
Because the things that the mountain spirit buys are all graded, and things from the celestial realm also have celestial realm grades. The things you buy from roadside stalls are all low-class items.
In the immortal realm, cultivators of the same cultivation level have vastly different combat strengths, and everything is designed for use by immortals of different cultivation levels.
Therefore, the chamber of commerce was not very crowded, and it was rather deserted. There were only a few scattered cultivators, and judging from their attire, most of them were family members from Luofan City.
Ye Liuyun glanced around casually. There was no one to greet him, but there were counters all around, displaying many things. Ye Liuyun came to a counter displaying magical treasures. There was a young woman guarding it. When she saw someone coming, she just glanced at Ye Liuyun and then ignored him.
Because she felt that Ye Liuyun was unlikely to be able to afford the things here.
"These magical treasures don't seem to have anything special about them. What's the difference between them and the magical treasures from the lower realms?" Ye Liuyun found that the energy emanating from these magical treasures was really too weak, and she didn't know how to describe it.
Upon hearing Ye Liuyun's mutterings, the woman guarding the counter immediately burst into mockery.
"My lord, even the most powerful magical artifacts from the lower realms are nothing but scrap metal in the immortal realm. You're clearly a newcomer who just ascended to the immortal realm and knows nothing. The treasures here, though all at the level of gods, can still be used in the immortal realm. They're more than enough to easily kill immortals who have cultivated the Divine Man Technique," the woman said arrogantly.
Ye Liuyun didn't care about the other party's attitude, because that's how it is in the Immortal Realm.
“That makes sense. Are there any higher-grade magic treasures, preferably medicine cauldrons or medicine furnaces? Do you have any?” Ye Liuyun asked.
The woman was slightly taken aback, then looked Ye Liuyun up and down again. After looking him up and down, she couldn't help but sneer.
"My esteemed guest, I'm not trying to mock you, but we certainly have the items, but can you afford them?"
Ye Liuyun rolled his eyes.
"How do you know I can't afford it? Don't look at customers with such prejudiced eyes. If I couldn't afford it, would I be here in your chamber of commerce?" Ye Liuyun retorted.
Seeing Ye Liuyun's confident demeanor, the woman thought for a moment and then slowly stood up.
"Alright, but I must warn you beforehand: if you can't afford a magic weapon of Earth Immortal level, don't blame me for having you thrown out," the woman stepped forward to warn him.
Every word this woman uttered annoyed Ye Liuyun, and for a moment, Ye Liuyun wanted to slap her face again.
"Just bring the stuff over, stop with all the nonsense. Is this how you do business?" Ye Liuyun questioned, displeased.
This woman had no choice but to accept Ye Liuyun's domineering attitude.
"Alright, you wait here." The woman said, turning around and opening a cabinet, from which she took out a pale gold cauldron.
Earth Immortal-level magic treasures correspond to Emperor-level weapons in the lower realm, while immortal artifacts in the lower realm, such as the Nuwa Stone and the Fuxi Qin, normally correspond to Heaven Immortal-level magic treasures.
"Yuan Tian Ding, a low-grade Earth Immortal level magic treasure, can be used for refining medicine and crafting weapons. It costs 10,000 immortal crystals. Can you afford it?" The woman placed the cauldron on the table and asked with a disdainful expression.
Ye Liuyun had initially thought it wouldn't be cheap, but upon hearing it was only 10,000 immortal crystals, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Only 10,000 immortal crystals? I say, sister, who are you looking down on? Don't you have anything better?" Ye Liuyun was definitely going to buy it for alchemy, so naturally she would buy the best cauldron or furnace available at the moment.
When the woman heard Ye Liuyun say this, she thought he was playing a trick on her.
Ten thousand immortal crystals would take a working immortal at the God-level to save for at least thirty years to afford, and they wouldn't be able to spend it recklessly during that time. But that's impossible. Even an Earth Immortal with a decent job would need more than ten years to afford it. And she could tell at a glance that the person in front of her had just ascended.
A newly ascended mortal from the lower realms probably doesn't even have a hundred immortal crystals, let alone ten thousand.
"Little girl, are you making fun of me? This is a magic treasure of the Earth Immortal level worth 10,000 Immortal Crystals. I can't even afford it, but you can. Are you trying to make fun of me?" The woman got angry.
But just as she was about to lash out, Ye Liu suddenly took out his wallet, opened it, and waved it in front of the woman.
In that instant, the woman's anger, which was about to erupt, subsided. Her expression changed from annoyance to shock and disbelief.
Although she hadn't looked closely, she was certain that the other party's storage magic item contained more than ten thousand immortal crystals.
"No way, I actually misjudged? Oh no, I've offended a customer, what should I do?" The female cultivator stood there dumbfounded.
If her attitude causes the Mountain Ghosts to lose a big business deal, then they're in big trouble.
Thus, the female cultivator's expression underwent a dramatic transformation, forcibly changing from anger to a smile.
"This, this is, this distinguished guest, it was my mistake, I, I apologize to you." The female cultivator said with an extremely embarrassed smile.
