Her tone was emotionless. “I’ve never seen a shop as magical as yours, Mr. Fang. You are a warrior, but you didn’t have any fortuitous experiences in the last 16 years. Therefore, it doesn’t seem possible for you to be the one that created the special items in your shop, let alone possess lightning techniques, the most difficult type of cultivation technique. However, not only did I see those special items in your shop yesterday, I also saw the lightning technique three times in a row! Therefore, I guessed that the spiritual artifacts called the ‘computers’ were created by one or even a group of cultivators. Mr. Fang, you’re just their agent. Am I right?”

Fang Qi froze for a second. “Your analysis is very thorough.”

But you need to be more imaginative, he added in his head.

“The difference between normal people and cultivators are like the heaven and the earth. That’s how big the difference is,” She paused for a second before continuing, “The cultivators behind you must be extremely confident to be able to show these items to the world.”

“But they asked you, Mr. Fang, to be the owner of the shop that offers the items they created because their identities cannot be revealed to the rest of the world, right? Or do they not want people to know that they exist?” Nalan Mingxue asked, “Either way, these people are way out of your league, but they trust you enough to give you all their items. That means they want something from you. As long as they do, we can negotiate.”

“You only need one night to perfectly investigate and analyze my situation?” Fang Qi laughed, “Ms. Nalan, should I praise you?”

“It’s nothing,” Nalan Mingxue sipped the Pear Blossom Wine to warm up her throat. Her snowy skin reddened a little as if a flower had bloomed in the depths of winter, making her look more beautiful than ever. Her tone was still icy and a little lazy. “The truth is, I went to your shop after doing my research.”

She began looking into the Origins Internet Club as soon as she heard about it; that was why she went yesterday and not the day before.

“So, Mr. Fang, may I ask if the cultivators behind you want to work for the Nalan Family?” Upon seeing Fang Qi’s displeased expression, she added, “Don’t reject my offer just yet. You should know that what happened with Xiao Yulv isn’t the end of it. The cultivators behind you can’t show themselves and help you. I’m not looking down on you, but with your power, you won’t be able to deal with him by yourself!”

“With the Nalan Family’s support, however, I can promise you that no one will have the courage to cause trouble for you!”

What she wanted was clear; she wanted Fang Qi’s little shop for herself. Never once did she give up on that idea!

Fang Qi was displeased. “You went through this much trouble of getting me out of my shop just for this? Your analysis is right,” he said with a smile, “But allow me to be blunt. The Nalan Family is not qualified enough!”

“Do you know what the name ‘Nalan’ means in Jiuhua City and the Jiangnan region?” Lan Yan was furious. “Even the members of the Royal Family have to treat the Nalan Family with respect. Ms. Nalan is interested in your shop; you should be honored that she wants to give you an opportunity. Don’t think too highly of yourself.”

“You’re good at exploiting small openings.” Fang Qi laughed, “But you’re imagining things if you think Xiao Yulv can threaten me.”

“You’re insane!” Lan Yan placed her hand on the hilt of the sword by her waist. An icy light shone before Fang Qi’s chest as the sword was drawn.
