Genius Demon Empress

In the next few months, life in the Blood Ying Duke Mansion went smoothly. After Yue Jinghua followed the Human Face Falcon, he refined the Mysterious Beast Vein Crystal several times, but unfortunately except for that one Except for Gray Feather, no matter what mysterious beast she used, she could not refine a qualified mysterious beast vein crystal.

It seems that the refining of vein crystals also has high requirements on the grade of the mysterious beast. Only the corpses of high-quality high-level mysterious beasts can be used to refine the mysterious beast vein crystals.

It seems that Yue Jinghua still has a long way to go to promote special mysterious crystals like vein crystals on a large scale.

During this period, thanks to the cooperation of the Yanyue Chamber of Commerce, Yue Jinghua successfully took over several shops on Linlan Street.

In addition to several other shops on Linlan Street that she secretly asked Hongyao to acquire, by the end of May, Yue Jinghua had acquired nearly 80% of Linlan Street.

After another half month of rectification, finally in mid-June, the first Duke's Palace grocery store opened on Linlan Street.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, and the amount of supplies transported from the Billon Teleportation Channel is limited. The business of the grocery store in the first few days can only be described as empty.

Outside the shop, there were only a few people who came to watch the excitement, but not a single serious customer was seen.

As time passed, Hongyao also noticed something was wrong. After paying attention to the shop a few times, he found that there were always some local gangsters with deer-headed and rat-like eyes hanging around, and from time to time they used threatening words to drive away customers who passed by.

There were also some guests who, as soon as they came closer, were pulled away by the rosy-smelling women.

Boss, I've already inquired. Those people are from the four major forces on Linlan Street. A few years ago, they didn't look at each other. Now they have joined together for unknown reasons. They seem to be secretly dealing with us. Hong Yao is used to staying in the market and has never seen any dangerous situations. He will not take these ruffians seriously.

But if they continue, the Duke's Mansion store will not be able to gain a foothold on Linlan Street.

Yue Jinghua thought for a while and whispered into Hong Yao's ear.

The latter understood and acted according to Yue Jinghua's arrangement.

On this day, the grocery store was as usual. A handyman in Tsing Yi was arranging the shelves of the grocery store with his head down, when he suddenly heard the sound of noisy footsteps.

Several mysterious practitioners with triangular eyes and sparse eyebrows, Da Chichi, walked in. If you look closely at their steps, you will find that these people are somewhat different from the ordinary gangsters.

One of them walked up to the handyman and shouted loudly: New guy, call your boss out.

The handyman had a hat on his face, and his face could not be seen clearly. He could only hear his trembling voice saying: The boss is out. How can I help you with these guests?

Pay the money, have you paid the security money for your store this month? the mysterious person who took the lead said fiercely.

Customer... no, sir, we are a serious shop. We pay taxes in accordance with the requirements of the Ministry of Household Affairs. We don't owe a penny. Sir, have you entered the wrong shop? The little handyman shivered in fright and buried his head deeper. .

You have to pay the tax from the Ministry of Household Affairs, and you have to pay the peace money from Linlan Street. The mysterious person glanced at the grocery store and saw the dazzling array of goods on the shelves in the shop. Both the north and south goods were available, and his eyes couldn't help but gleam. Passed the silky light.

Safety money? What kind of money is that? The little handyman mustered up his courage and asked with his neck turning red.

It's money to keep your store safe and the goods safe. If you don't pay it, you might have an arm broken for no reason or both legs broken. Then the day after tomorrow, there's a fire in the store, and you might end up being robbed by thieves. Yes, we can't guarantee it, the mysterious man said with his mouth flying and his face full of pride.

After hearing this, the little handyman hesitated and was speechless.

He cowered for a long time before holding back another sentence: Sir, how much do you need to pay for peace of mind?

One shop has one hundred thousand mysterious pills, the mysterious practitioner opened his mouth and reported an astonishing number.

That's not possible, it's too much. Our store has just opened and we can't afford so much money at once. The little handyman was obviously new to the world. Hearing such an astronomical figure, he was so frightened that his tongue was tied up and he couldn't even speak. I can't speak.

Can't hand it over? Then smash it, those profound practitioners were like bandits, trying to smash and rob.

The little handyman was so anxious that he couldn't speak coherently, Sir, please, please, don't smash it. We don't have that much money, but we can use things to offset it.

When they heard that the little handyman wanted to pay with something, the group of mystics stopped and said, If you use something to pay with something, that's fine. Take out your things and take a look.

Take it now, take it now, the little handyman said, with a hint of coldness flashing in his bright star eyes on his face that had been lowered.

Just like a nimble macaque, he jumped out from the counter. His ten fingers were very nimble, and with a small grasping hand, he pressed the right arm joint and the large point of the shoulder blade of the mysterious practitioner. .

After using his elbow to push hard, there was only a crisp sound of stuck. The mysterious practitioner named the leader felt abnormal pain in his shoulder. The profound energy in his body could not move freely, and he instantly lost the ability to resist.

Seeing their accomplices being captured, the remaining profound practitioners jumped up and pounced on the green-robed handyman.

Inside the store, a small black mysterious beast as big as a house cat jumped down from a high place, its sharp claws flashing with a cold light.

It was none other than the seventh-level peak mysterious beast, Xiao Shan.

It's Black Yama. When several profound practitioners saw Xiao Shan, their legs became weak with fear and they could hardly stand.

On the other side, the little handyman who captured the leader of the Xuanzhe also took off his hat, revealing his face wearing a golden mask.

Ever since the last battle in the Colosseum, where Xiao Shen defeated ten war beasts one at a time and maintained a complete victory, Xiao Shen's black hair and astonishing speed shocked everyone who witnessed the beast battle. .

The ferocious beasts that could defeat even ten sixth-level peak players encountered them, a group of profound practitioners who were not even at the highest level of the Earth Profound Peak. To kill them was as easy as cutting through a watermelon with a kitchen knife.

After getting the news about the red medicine, Yue Jinghua immediately sent people from the Eagle Department to investigate the identities of the ruffians wandering outside the grocery store, and found that they all belonged to Ripper Lunfeng, one of the four major local forces. 's subordinates.

Among the four major forces, Lunfeng has the most mysterious practitioners under his command, most of whom are retired imperial soldiers.

In order to avoid unnecessary damage, Yue Jinghua decided to go into battle personally, pretending to be a handyman, just to lure this group of people into taking the bait.

After recognizing the identities of Yue Jinghua and Xiao Shan, the leader of the mysterious practitioners was still unwilling to give in and kept shouting: I tell you, if you dare to do anything to me, our heads will not be spared. your.

Tsk tsk, don't get me wrong. I stopped you today not to ask you to beg for mercy. Since I came to Linlan Street, I will naturally abide by the rules of Linlan Street. As for the peace money, I will also pay it. I just paid it. The method is a little bit special, Yue Jinghua smiled, pinched the shoulders of the leader of the mysterious practitioners with both hands, and exerted force.

The leader of the Xuanzhe let out a shrill scream.
