“Young man, I just came back from the Blood Rain Forest and have been hunting demonic beasts and monsters in the mountains. I do look rather embarrassed, but I have obtained quite a few good things and plan to sell them at the Shiyi Zhai.
Xu Taiping seriously explained to the shop buddy.
　　He didn’t really care too much about the other party judging people by their appearance. After all, in his current appearance, he really didn’t look like a normal person.
　　As for changing clothes and washing up again, not only could he wait, but his Lotus Pupils couldn’t wait either.
　　“Brother, if it were on a normal day, I would have turned a blind eye and let you in, but today, you’d better go change your clothes and come back.”
Seeing that Xu Taiping’s tone was sincere and not fake, the tone of the shop fellow also softened a lot.
“Today, the Goddess of the Underworld, Mu Yuchen, will come to our Shiyi Zhai in person gave instructions a few days ago that those who are not neatly dressed are not allowed to enter today.”
The shop fellow said to Xu Taiping with a proud look on his face.
　　“Goddess　Mu　Yuchen？”
　　Xu Taiping had no understanding of the Underworld at all, so this was the first time he heard this title and this name.
However, looking at the expression of the shop man, this was obviously a big shot.
　　Now that the Jinlin Club is about to start, the experts from several heavens and earths have all gathered here. It is normal for some big shots to appear.
　　Xu Taiping, who had a shadow in his heart because of the seven-fold killing tribulation of One Leaf Book, instinctively became vigilant, thinking that it was better not to go in and join in the excitement. One wrong move might attract disaster again.
　　He glanced at the entrance of Shiyi Zhai and found that there were several monks setting up stalls and packing up at this time, so his eyes lit up——
　　“Since setting up stalls is allowed in the capital city, then I can set up a stall first. There are so many experts in the city now, and there must be quite a few people with discerning eyes.”
　　Because Xu Taiping has always had the good habit of being thrifty in housekeeping （picking up trash）.
　　So in the past seven years, when fighting against monsters, monks or demons, as long as he could pick up anything, he would pick it up into the gourd.
　　Especially in the battle at Tianguan Pass a few months ago, for the corpses and treasures on those deep-sea demons, as long as he could pick them up, he would pick them all up into the gourd.
　　So much so that Bai Yu always complained that the green gourd was made stinky by him.
　　“I remember that the Shark Head Hammer of that Whale Demon seems to be very special. Even my Demon-Slaying Saber couldn’t cut it off after cutting seven times in a row, and it also has the ability to break restrictions. This thing should be sold to those who know the goods, and it should be able to sell for a lot of gold essence coins.”
　　Thinking like this, Xu Taiping felt relieved.
　　Judging from the current situation of his Lotus Pupil, without three or five thousand gold essence coins, it is simply impossible to calm it down.
　　This is also the reason why he didn’t go to Xuanyun Martial Arts Hall or borrow money from Monk Chongde. The amount is too large and it’s simply hard to explain.
　　“Then I won’t make things difficult for you, little brother…”
　　“Bang！”
　　Xu Taiping cupped his hands towards the shop assistant and was about to say goodbye to him. Unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, he saw a middle-aged man with a fleshy head and brain beside him kicked the shop assistant heavily.
　　“What’s going on? Can’t even get rid of a beggar? Do you still want to work in Shiyi Zhai?”
The middle-aged man loudly scolded the shop assistant.
　　“Shopkeeper, I…”
　　“How dare you talk back？”
　　The shop assistant was about to explain when the middle-aged man kicked him again.
　　This kick landed on the lower abdomen, and the shop assistant almost fainted from the pain.
　　“Are you the shopkeeper of the first floor of Shiyi Zhai？”
Just as the middle-aged man was about to make a move again, Xu Taiping reached out and hold his shoulder, making him unable to move.
　　Although it was just a gentle press, with Xu Taiping’s current dragon whale physique, even if he was only at the Sleeping Dragon Realm, his strength was far beyond what ordinary cultivators could resist.
　　Although the shopkeeper was snobbish, he still had some vision.
　　As soon as Xu Taiping made a move, he Perceived the extraordinary skill of the other party.
　　However, in order to maintain the face of being the shopkeeper of Shiyi Zhai, he didn’t show weakness and instead snorted coldly and said：
　　”This is the capital city of my Great Chu, and this is the Shiyi Studio. Don’t think that just because you have some martial arts skills, you can be arrogant and look down on others.”
　　Xu Taiping couldn’t help but smile when he heard this.
　　He thought to himself, wasn’t it you who were the arrogant and look down on others？
　　”Brother, our Shiyi Studio really doesn’t entertain guests with untidy clothes these days. Please go to other places.”
At this time, the shop assistant cast a begging look at Xu Taiping.
　　In his opinion, even if Xu Taiping was really not a beggar but a cultivator or warrior with good cultivation, if they really started to fight, he couldn’t possibly defeat the Shiyi Studio.
　　By then, not only would Xu Taiping be dealt with, but he would probably also be implicated and lose this decent job.
　　”That booth in front of your door is not bad.”
　　Xu Taiping turned his head and looked at the several places where you could set up a stall in front of the Shiyi Studio again, and then turned his head to look at the fat shopkeeper and said, “Your Shiyi Studio won’t be so overbearing that even the vendors are not allowed to have untidy clothes, right？”
　　Because he was a bit angry in his stomach, when he said this, he deliberately raised his voice, and with his somewhat fierce appearance after being changed by the Body Forging Technique, the fat shopkeeper trembled in fright.
　　”Please do as you please！”
　　The fat shopkeeper said with a forced calm.
Xu Taiping then didn’t bother with them anymore and directly walked towards the several positions where one could set up a stall.
　　“What can be brought to sell at a stall, presumably it won’t be any good stuff.”
　　The shopkeeper on the first floor of Shiyi Zhai gave a white look at Xu Taiping’s back and at the same time said angrily to the shop assistant beside him：
　　“If you encounter this kind of person again, immediately call the guards in the building！”
　　“Yes！”
　　The shop assistant with a sweating head nodded obediently.
　　At the same time.
　　Xu Taiping had also already come to the position where the stalls were set up.
　　“Brother, come here, this position is not bad.”
　　Before Xu Taiping could stand still, an old cultivator who was setting up a stall to sell herbs reached out and greeted Xu Taiping.
　　The situation where Xu Taiping was expelled by Shiyi Zhai just now was seen by all these vendors.
　　And because most of these vendors who sold herbs and materials had encountered the cold shoulder from Shiyi Zhai, they all felt quite sympathetic to Xu Taiping’s encounter.
　　“Brother, just put whatever you have on the stall and sell it.”
