Chapter Eighty-Three: The Young Master of the Small Temple

  Less than a month after the blood clot was scattered, Xiao's family had already taken over 70% of the wound medicine market in Wutan City. The huge profit made Xiao's family joyful, and the previously sparse door was now crowded with people, like a bustling marketplace.

  In contrast to the joy of the Xiao family, the Jia family is gloomy. Due to their recent profiteering behavior, they have incurred the disgust of most mercenaries. Moreover, the Xiao family's Congxue San has a stronger effect than Huichun San, so the Jia family's wound medicine industry has been suppressed by the Xiao family and cannot move. If not for the limited supply of the Xiao family's daily wound medicine, the Jia family would probably have to drink porridge.

  Although the wound medicine industry has shrunk, its profits are still considerable. However, what troubles the Gali family the most is the large amount of medicinal materials needed for refining medicine.

  As the largest resource library in the city, Mittle Auction House has refused to cooperate with them again. The Galle family is also gritting their teeth with hatred for this medicinal blockade, but no matter how angry they are, they don't dare to force Mittle Auction House. After all, the background of Mittle Auction House is a powerful force that can rank among the top in the entire Gamma Empire. A small family like theirs in Udan City doesn't have the ability to provoke them.

  The auction house route is no longer viable, and the Galle family has no choice but to buy out all the pharmacies in Utena at a price several times higher than market value. However, this is only a temporary solution, as these pharmacies do not have the capacity to supply such a large demand for an extended period of time.

  Moreover, the most important thing is that everyone in Wutan City has seen the fire and killing intent between the Xiao family and the Gali family. At this time, helping the Gali family is undoubtedly offending the rising Xiao family. So, after selling medicine to the Gali family for the first time, many pharmacies dare not sell on a large scale again, which makes things even more difficult for the Gali family.

  As a result, the Gale family's medicinal herbs in Udan City were almost cut off by nearly eight layers, and the remaining two layers could not meet the needs of refining therapeutic drugs. For this reason, the helpless Gale family had to adopt high prices to purchase medicinal materials from other cities, which barely resolved the crisis of insufficient medicinal materials. However, due to this, the Gale family's profits were greatly reduced again. If it weren't for the profits from therapeutic drugs, the Gale family would have faced bankruptcy long ago.

  The current Wutang City, Xiao's family is taking advantage of the popularity of therapeutic medicine, and their status is rising rapidly, even slightly surpassing the momentum of the other two major families.

  ……

  A bustling street, Xiao Yan walked lazily in the middle of the road. Behind him, seven or eight burly men wearing the Xiao family's guard uniform followed closely. On their chests, without exception, were embroidered four or more golden stars, indicating that these men all possessed the strength of a Four-Star Warrior.

  On the main street, the crowd was surging, and many fierce mercenaries who were emitting a bloody smell all showed benevolent smiles when they saw the young man holding his head with both hands. Occasionally, some slightly familiar ones would laugh and tease: "Young master, are you looking for trouble again?"

  Every time he was called that, Xiao Yan would pull his mouth in a helpless manner and let out a low sigh. Half a month ago, Xiao Zhan suddenly threw him over to manage this market, under the guise of "training". As for Xiao Zhan's actions, the Xiao family had actually debated it for some time. A teenager managing an entire market was unprecedented in the Xiao family, but in the end, considering Xiao Yan's current identity was different from before, some people could only agree. And so, Xiao Yan, who was resting well at home, was thrown over here.

  Although the Bao City is very large, what makes Xiao Yan slightly relieved is that managing the Bao City is not too tiring. Some trivial street divisions and discussions about the prices of golden zone merchants are all handed over to his father's specially appointed old steward. Occasionally, he would take a group of big men to patrol the streets and manage safety issues in the Bao City, and life was quite stable and carefree.

  Xiao Yan appears to be calm and gentle, but he actually enjoys discussing thrilling adventures, strange magical beasts, and certain caves with mercenaries, where predecessors left behind their techniques. All of these things stimulate the adventurous factor in Xiao Yan's bones, making him eager to venture into the deep mountains that few people have visited, to search for mysterious and powerful techniques and fighting skills.

  Xiao Yan was young and had a delicate face, which made it difficult for people to have bad feelings towards him. Moreover, every time he got excited while talking, he would take out limited-edition healing medicine from his pocket and give it to others. As a result, those straightforward and generous mercenaries developed a good impression of him. Over time, the return rate of old customers in Xiao Yan's shop was almost the highest among all the shops owned by the Xiao family.

  Looking back on the past half month, Xiao Yan couldn't help but smile wistfully. These days were numbered, and at most, he had another month before he would have to follow Medicine Master out for training. After that, it was likely that he wouldn't be able to return for a year or two.

  Shaking off the melancholy on his mind, Xiao Yan lifted his head. A somewhat sly and thin figure suddenly darted out from the crowd.

  He paused in his footsteps, gazing at the ordinary and slightly thin man before him. Xiao Yan furrowed his brow and said indifferently, "Karu, why aren't you busy with your get-rich-quick scheme? What brings you here?"

  The sly man in front of him was a well-known "Golden Finger" in the market, that is to say, a thief. As for this profession that grew up in the shadows, Xiao Yan did not have an unrealistic idea of completely eradicating them. He clearly understood that everything has its pros and cons. Although this profession made people look down on it, their information was extremely well-informed. No matter what happened in Wutian City, they would know something about it.

  "Heh heh, young master." A slender man named Kuru smiled ingratiatingly and said: "I've come to report to you that I just received word from my underling that Miss Xun and the others were insulted by a mysterious man on the outskirts of the city. That's why I rushed over here."

  "Oh, right, Galleo from the Galle family is also there. It seems like he knows that guy in mourning clothes too, they have quite a few people."

  His eyes narrowed slightly, and Xiao Yan's calm face gradually turned cold. He tilted his head slightly and said in a low voice, "Xiao Li, call people over, as long as they're alive, get them all to come here!"

  "Yes!" A tall man responded with a loud voice, then quickly turned around and ran towards the inside of the town.

  "Lead the way." Turning his head, Xiao Yan nodded at Kruel and said calmly.

  Looking at Xiao Yan's face which suddenly turned cold, Kru hurriedly nodded and didn't dare to say another word, quickly leading the way forward.

  "This turtle grandson, actually dares to run to our Xiao family's place and flirt with me... If I, Xiao Yan, let you leave the city safely today, then I won't be the master of this city!" After licking his lips, Xiao Yan spoke in a cold and gentle voice, causing Kluo's body to tremble again as he increased his speed once more.
