Chapter Eleven: The Fourth-Grade Plant Master

  "So what are you people buying?" Baroque frowned and interrupted Kiwan who was about to talk to Ron.

  "We're going to buy a sixth-order Divine Fruit of Combat Qi!" Ji Wan's face was full of pride, he was about to reach the peak of fifth-order after all. If he reached the sixth-order Golden Warrior, then he would be the true number one warrior in Kodo Town!

  "Sixth-grade Douqi Divine Fruit!" Baroque said calmly: "We don't have it in our store for the time being, I'll report it to the top, you guys come back in a few days and listen to the news!"

  Baroque wasn't trying to be difficult with Kiwan, he was telling the truth. Due to the rarity of Master Planters on the Allen continent, Divine Fruits were also scarce, so their sales were usually limited. For example, sixth-grade Divine Fruits were top-tier White Silver-grade Divine Fruits. Although Codu was a mercenary town, this Planter's shop had sales privileges comparable to those in small cities. However, selling sixth-grade Divine Fruits required reporting to the Provincial Planter's Guild for approval before they would be issued.

  "If there's nothing else, you can all go back!" Baroque gave the order to dismiss Kiew and the others.

  "Yes, let's go!" Facing Baroque, who didn't give him a good look at all, Kiwan didn't dare to retort and could only secretly curse two sentences, lowering his head and walking towards the door.

  Just then, an old man walked out of the door of the plant shop and happened to collide with Kihwan and others who were in a rage at the entrance.

  "Dead old man, you're walking without eyes, didn't see that I'm going out, standing at the door doing what, pretending to be a corpse, get lost!"

  Kiwan, still in a rage, only saw that his opponent was an old man and didn't even see his face clearly before he started scolding loudly.

  "How dare you be so presumptuous and disrespect Lord Sakha! Are you trying to get yourselves killed?!"

  Just as Kihwan was about to scold, four warriors suddenly jumped out from somewhere, drew their swords and pointed at Kihwan and others in front of the Uemura store.

  "How dare you? Hmph, you're the ones who are being reckless. Do you know who I am?" Ji Wan raised his head and before he could finish speaking, he saw the four warriors and was taken aback. The crowd from the Crazy Wolf Mercenary Corps couldn't help but take a cold breath in reverse.

  The four people standing in front of him were actually all fifth-grade White Silver Warriors, and two of them had a purple thistle flower engraved on the armor on their shoulders, indicating their status as Imperial Guards!

  "My goodness!" Kivan's legs went weak and he almost fell down. What kind of person could make the Imperial Guards address someone as "sir"? Thinking about this, the few people from the Mercenary Group of Wild Wolves carefully sized up the old man at the door.

  Just by taking a glance at the attire, Ji Wan suddenly fell to the ground with a thud, and the rest of the Crazy Wolf Mercenaries also trembled in their legs and shook all over.

  The old man was wearing a Plant Master robe, and even if he was just a first-stage Plant Master apprentice, they wouldn't dare be arrogant. Moreover, it was clear that the old man in front of them was definitely not just a simple Plant Master apprentice.

  At this moment, Ji Wan's heart was truly regretful that he hadn't seen clearly the person in front of him earlier and had scolded him loudly. He didn't know that this was the habitual arrogance of the Crazy Wolf Mercenary Group in Kodo Town, and now they had run into Iron Pockmarks, it couldn't be blamed on bad luck. With the character of the Crazy Wolf Mercenary Group, this was bound to happen sooner or later.

  "Hmph!" The old man seemed to be in a bad mood, let out a cold snort, his face turned iron-green, but didn't say anything. He simply strode past Kiwan and the others, walked into the Zhī Shī shop, and plopped himself down on an armchair.

  However, the four samurai were not as easy to talk to as the old man. They had always been arrogant and saw that someone dared to scold their master. As attendants, the four naturally showed no mercy to the other party, beating several people from the Crazy Wolf Mercenary Group with fists and feet, and then throwing Kiwan and others onto the street on the opposite side amidst the other party's wailing. After that, the four attendants disappeared again.

  Poor Ji Wan and others didn't dare to resist in the slightest, enduring the pain with a swollen face and nose, they slunk away in utter disarray.

  "Ah, Lord Sahara, don't be angry about those people from earlier!" Seeing the old man, Baroque hastily put down the jade plate in his hand and came to the old man's side, pouring him a cup of tea.

  "Was I angry at those people just now? Those kinds of scoundrels are not worthy of my anger, what I'm angry about is that those guys in the Plant Temple don't know how to think, they actually made me come to this godforsaken place to find the ZiLing fruit. Is there even any ZiLing fruit here? Even if there was, this is the Demon Domain Mountain Range, do I dare to venture deep?"

  Listening to Sahah's complaints, Baroque smiled and said: "Lord Sahah, calm down, haven't you already found a Purple Lotus fruit?"

  "It's better if you don't mention it, but now that you've said it, I'm even angrier. The Purple Ling fruit we found is actually going to die! What can I do as a fourth-stage Plant Master? It's infuriating!"

  "Four-stage Plant Master, indeed..." After hearing the conversation between the two, Ron and others were shocked. Earlier, when they saw the old man's clothes, everyone had already seen that he was a Plant Master, but they didn't expect him to be a four-stage Plant Master. In the Westis Kingdom, a middle-ranking country, a four-stage Plant Master would at least be an Earl. How could such a person come to this small place of Kodo?

  Thinking of Kiwan's previous few, Luna and Linda couldn't help but want to laugh, but in front of this Sa Ha, they didn't dare to be too reckless.

  "Is that Purple Lotus fruit going to die? Can't even you, sir, save it?" Balrok's face seemed to show a hint of incredulity.

  "Who do you think I am!" Sahra frowned and complained, and suddenly a faint light flashed on the ring on her right index finger. A pot of plants had already appeared on the table. Looking at the withered and dry leaves on the plant, Sahra said irritably: "The fruit of the purple lotus is at least a fourth-order divine fruit. If it were to be cultivated by the first-class plant master of the continent, the ninth-order saintly devil plant master Bisfam, it might even produce a sacred-order divine fruit. Now that this purple lotus has lost its vitality, I'm afraid even the first court plant master of the kingdom, Lord Rudolf, who is a sixth-order plant guide, may not be able to save it!"

  Saha looked up and glanced at the people in the house, including Lorne, and said to Balok: "They are your guests, you go take care of them!"

  "Yes, Lord Sahah!" Baroque nodded and then turned to Catherine: "Have you decided? Which divine fruit do you want to buy?"

  "This...” Catherine glanced at everyone, although the high-quality Purple Spirit Fruit would be more helpful for her future cultivation, and if she wanted the high-quality Purple Spirit Fruit, everyone would certainly support her own. However, she also knew that this was too unrealistic and put too much burden on everyone.

  "Let's get that mid-grade Purple Spirit Fruit!" Catherine said to Baroque.

  "Catherine, sis, why don't you take that high-quality Purple Spirit Fruit? It'll be more helpful for your future cultivation. Don't worry about everyone else, 1,000 gold coins isn't a lot. Our Lir Blade Mercenary Team is one of the top mercenary teams in Kodo Town, we can afford it!" Luna immediately chimed in from the side.

  "Yes, Catherine, you don't have to consider everyone!" Ron and Linda also advised.

  "Everyone, no need to say more!" Catherine smiled all over her face, delighted that she had such friends: "Medium-grade divine fruit isn't bad either, and my talent isn't very good, I'm still just a second-rate apprentice mage now. Using too good divine fruit would be wasteful, it's better to spend this money elsewhere!"

  Everyone fell silent when they heard Catherine say that. In fact, Catherine's talent was not bad at all, and who would dislike good things? However, everyone knew that although Catherine appeared gentle and weak on the surface, once she made up her mind about something, it was very hard to change her decision.

  Baroque on the side also saw the result now, at this moment he was ready to wrap up that medium-grade purple spirit fruit on the side.

  "Wait a minute..." Just then, Hua Yun, who had been silent all along, spoke up!
