Immortal Realm’s Smuggling Kingpin

Chapter 44: Big Sales (2)

Zhao Xihe felt guilty towards Luo Qian in his heart. Seeing Luo Qian standing alive before him, he felt guilty yet embarrassed. Meanwhile, Luo Qian had run over to check on the Clearwater Kirin. He could clearly see that the Clearwater Kirin’s condition was a lot better; only there were some differences from what he had expected.

Zhao Xihe stood behind him. When he turned around, he suddenly let out a long sigh, cupped his fists, and bowed down. “Little brother Luo, I am ashamed!”

Luo Qian stood still and accepted this bow of his. “Old Mr. Zhao, you are an elder, and also one of the Heaven Roll’s nine masters. Normally, I cannot accept this bow, but I have brazenly done so.”

Zhao Xihe faltered, and Luo Qian instantly smiled. “How is it? Elder one, I have accepted your bow. Do you feel slightly better in your heart now?”

Zhao Xihe was enlightened and quickly nodded. “Little brother is a magnanimous person. I understand!”

Luo Qian said, “Alright. Old Sir, now we ought to pay attention to the Clearwater Kirin.” Luo Qian clearly distinguished between love and hate. If it wasn’t because Zhao Xihe could have such a humble attitude despite him being an expert on the Heaven Roll, he would probably bear a grudge against him inwardly for life. However, it was an unintentional mistake on Zhao Xihe’s part too. Zhao Xihe did not know that he was a Tribulation Immortal and could not withstand even a single blow. In addition, with such an attitude, Luo Qian did not want to be too much and pursue the matter too far.

“Uncle Du, did you notice any abnormalities?”

Once Luo Qian said so, Zhao Xihe immediately grew nervous; he hurriedly asked, “Why? What else is wrong with my Bi’er?”

Du Boan frowned. “It seems like the effect of the medicine is not very evident. Could it be due to insufficient drug efficacy?” He came to a sudden realization. “Yes. It’s not due to insufficient drug efficacy, but because the Clearwater Kirin has had this illness for a long time. Its constitution is weak, so it’s recovery speed is much slower. Let me think… oh yes. Little Brother Luo, the Jade Water Elixir from your Luo Medicine Hall is very effective. Why don’t we feed it a few of those?”

Luo Qian had the same judgment. However, he was doubtful, which was why he got Du Boan to make a diagnosis. He had plenty of Jade Water Elixir on him. Taking out five, he stuffed them into the Clearwater Kirin’s big mouth. This time, the Clearwater Kirin’s reaction was much better. Although it vomited a considerable amount, a small portion of the medicine had been absorbed.

Under the effect of the Immortal air, the Clearwater Kirin’s rate of recovery quickened.

Zhao Xihe was overjoyed. He felt both grateful and ashamed toward Luo Qian.

Luo Qian’s pupils looked around, wondering inwardly, Why isn’t this old man bringing out a ‘Divine Artifact’ to repay me yet? Given Luo Qian’s skin, he could certainly be shameless enough to ask for it, but the person before him was different. Not only was he one of the nine masters on the Beast Cultivators Heaven Roll, but he was also a superb expert that ranked amongst the top 50 in the Immortal Realm.

Luo Qian weighed his options inwardly for a while. He was someone who was going to be a ‘kingpin.’ The thinking and vision of his management had to be for the long-term; he could not operate with a small workshop owner’s vision. This time, he cannot speak up. For a superb expert like this, he’d make Zhao Xihe owe him this favor. The repayment in the future would definitely be much more profitable than a Divine Artifact that he would ask for now.

Luo Qian swallowed a mouthful of saliva and expelled the temptation of a Divine Artifact from his mind. He handed the sniper rifle to Du Lengning; there were still nine bullets inside the cartridge. “Young Master Du, I’ve still got something on. You can operate this too. I’ll leave this to you and take my leave first.” Luo Qian notified everyone and returned to his Fushan cave abode.

Zhao Xihe and Du Boan looked at the super injection syringe in Du Lengning’s hand. They found it very odd—This little brother Luo, how exactly did he come up with such a frightening idea?

Luo Qian returned to the Fushan cave abode and evaded Li Fei’er’s urging questions as he headed straight into the underground palace and started cultivating. The Fushan underground palace was the safest place in the entire Fushan cave abode. Even for Li Fei’er, a Fifth-Order Immortal, running straight into the Nine Realms of Smoke and Chaos would leave her confused, unable to distinguish between reality and illusion.

After cultivating bitterly for three days, he finally filled up that strange black hole in his body. Only, Luo Qian could now be certain that this strange black hole had something to do with himself being reborn repeatedly. These days, he was full of motivation when he cultivated, unlike how he was in the past, feeling that he was very unlucky.

Filling up the black hole, Luo Qian abruptly swallowed a mouthful of Immortal air into his body. The unique cultivation technique was triggered. The surrounding air was drawn inward and suddenly sprayed outward. With a ‘bang,’ Luo Qian vanished completely after a sheet of dense mist formed.

…

Human Realm.

Luo Qian sat in his stronghold. After pondering for a while, he still gave a call to Pei Sefei. After all, if Luo Qian—a big man—were to go purchase 27 pieces of sexy underwear, all of varying sizes even, he would find the strange look of the salesgirl rather unbearable. Even though the salesgirls of sexy lingerie stores were all very hot in his opinion.

“Hello…”

“Luo Qian! Wa…” Once the call was put through, Pei Sefei instantly burst into tears upon hearing his voice before he could finish speaking.

Luo Qian panicked. After trying every possible method, Pei Sefei was finally consoled and stopped crying.

Pei Sefei obstinately said, “Wait for me at home. Don’t go anywhere; I will go over right now.” Pei Sefei left the work on hand behind and dashed off.

The manager complained, “My madame, you’ve got to do a free endorsement for people again this time…”

Dong dong dong…

The crisp sound of high heels clicking on the steps; the footsteps were hurried.

Luo Qian opened the door, and as expected, it was Pei Sefei. Once the door was opened, Pei Sefei’s slim figure warmly jumped into Luo Qian’s arms like a baby sparrow returning to the forest…

She hugged him tightly with her delicate face leaning against his chest. Eyes closed, she listened to the sound of his beating heart, vividly feeling the reality of this man in her arms. Pei Sefei had been surrounded by frightening despair when Luo Qian had vanished once. She understood one thing—this man was not someone she could control. He drifted indefinitely, coming and going without a trace. She was really afraid that, one day, this man would suddenly disappear from her life just like how he had suddenly burst into her life.

A few days after Luo Qian left, she increasingly discovered her longing for him; it was unstoppable like a flood. It was better to let it flow than to block it. Thus, Pei Sefei no longer controlled her feelings; she opened her mind and loved this man wholeheartedly. Even if he really were to disappear one day, at least he had once belonged to her!

Right at this moment, warmth surrounded her. This man was really in her arms. At least he would not disappear at this moment. What she had hoped for was also just this moment.

“Luo Qian,” Pei Sefei murmured as if she was in a dream. “I won’t ask you. I won’t ask you anything. As long as I can see you often, listen to you talk, and touch your face, that’s enough…”

Luo Qian felt a surge of bitterness. This voice seemed to penetrate time and cut across space to come far from that mortal world deep in his memories. Two beautiful shadows overlapped—Hadn’t she once been with me uncomplainingly like this too?

Luo Qian’s hand, which had already stretched out, froze. His mind was a little hazy; he could no longer distinguish between the two of them. He could not bear to push away such a girl. “Sigh…” He let out a long sigh and listlessly lowered his arm, allowing her to hug him like this.

For the whole afternoon, the two of them did not do anything at all. They curled up together on Luo Qian’s favorite S-shaped recliner and chatted softly. Actually, it was Pei Sefei clinging onto Luo Qian and talking away like a little woman, speaking about her childhood all the way to university.

Luo Qian could not reject her the first time, and it became increasingly difficult thereafter. When night came, Luo Qian was already used to it. In any case, he did not give her any promises, and she did not need any promises either.

Between an Immortal and a mortal, even if there was a promise, what binding force would there be?

At night, Pei Sefei’s stomach growled. The girl’s face turned red.

Luo Qian took this chance to break away from her. “Let’s go. We’ll go to dinner, and I’ll treat.”

Pei Sefei smiled sweetly. “Alright. I want to eat a double portion of pan-fried duck breast, a portion of truffle foie gras salad, and a black truffle foie gras potage…”

“You can eat so much?” Luo Qian was surprised.

Pei Sefei turned over and rode on his back. “Because of you, this big demon, I have not had a proper meal in days. This time, I must replenish all the nutrients that I lost.”

Luo Qian looked at her chin that was evidently sharper and felt slightly guilty. He said with a smile, “No problem, let’s go.”

Walking out from the city center’s Sai Rang restaurant, Pei Sefei patted her tummy happily. She looked up at the night sky. “Ah, keke, the feeling of being completely full is real good.”

Luo Qian looked at her stomach. So much food had been stuffed into it. Why isn’t there the slightest hint of a bulge? Could this girl’s stomach be a legendary Cosmic Bag?

Pei Sefei had cleaned out the feast, yet her figure could still be maintained well.

Luo Qian’s gaze swept past her body, and could not help but sigh in admiration. No wonder she can be a cover model. I never noticed it in the past, but now that I’m taking a look, she is indeed so perfect that it drives men crazy and makes women envious. A golden ratio of upper and lower body proportions, a pair of long slim legs, rather high buttocks, looming peaks, a slender waist that can be held in one hand…

“What are you looking at, big pervert!” Although Pei Sefei rebuked him, there was a speck of shyness as a small, sweet smile hung on her face. She was able to attract her lover. Of course, the young girl was excited in her heart.

Luo Qian wondered inwardly, Does every woman have a third eye? Why is it that each time I steal some looks, I will be exposed? “Cough cough…” He let out a dry cough and said as a cover-up, “I have something that requires your help.”

Pei Sefei grinned, hugged his arm, and said, “Alright. My big boss, I’m still your employee now.”

“Help me buy 27 pieces of sexy underwear.”

“Bah!” Pei Sefei was greatly embarrassed. She hurriedly loosened her hold and said haltingly, “Qian, don’t do that. I’m not prepared yet, and you’re too impatient. Give me… give me two weeks, alright?”

Luo Qian was stunned. He then realized something. It turns out that she thought they were meant for her. I’m impatient? You only need two weeks to adapt. Who exactly is the impatient one here?
