Old Man Qingzhu chuckled. “Don’t underestimate these things because I’ve spent a lot of effort acquiring these treasures. There are many different genres including humans with humans, humans with beasts, self-pleasuring, sexual intercourse, threesomes, orgies…I’m offering a normal disc at the price of 300 Qi Gathering Pills whereas the ones between humans and beasts are priced at 500 Qi Gathering Pills each.”

“Senior Qingzhu, you’ll make a fortune through this source of income!” Ji Mo’s eyes sparkled.

“What’s the matter, young lad? Are you interested?” questioned Old Man Qingzhu. “Your Old Uncle, I, am about to venture into Boyue Town which is situated 150 kilometers away. That’s the only market town within the radius of 500 kilometers where cultivators can engage in trading activities, hence I’m sure I can sell these treasures at a profit. Do you want to tag along and help me out? I can share the high returns with you afterward.”

“Um…Senior Qingzhu, you’re asking me…to sell these erotic discs?” Ji Mo was slightly embarrassed.

“Not only the discs but also this as well as this…” As if he was performing some magic trick, Old Man Qingzhu revealed numerous books out of nowhere. The front covers of all these books revealed explicit contents of naked life-like women.

“Oh my goodness, Old Uncle, where and how did you acquire all these treasures?” Once again, Ji Mo’s eyes were gleaming with high spirits.

Old Man Qingzhu chuckled. “Go on. Accept this old man’s offer. I promise I’ll give you your due.”

Ji Mo was unable to make up his mind. He needed Qi Gathering Pills urgently to purchase spiritual medicine, and coincidentally, Old Man Qingzhu had offered him a pretty sweet deal. According to Old Man Qingzhu, he would be promised a desirable profit once he sold off all these treasures. Honestly, Ji Mo was slightly convinced.

Nonetheless, it was not particularly an honorable business. He was a disciple of a prestigious clan after all. It would ruin his reputation if the news of him engaging in this dirty deal of selling erotica was made public.

However, after much consideration, Ji Mo accepted the offer because he was in urgent need of Qi Gathering Pills to purchase spiritual medicine. As long as it was profitable, he could not care less if it was an honorable business or not.

Then, Ji Mo and Old Man Qingzhu tidied up quickly, left the restaurant, and headed off in the direction of Boyue Town which was situated 150 kilometers away. It was basically a cultivators’ market town because almost everyone that came in and out of Boyue Town was a cultivator or even an expert of the Qi Plundering Boundary. In other words, trying to earn Qi Gathering Pills there would not be a problem.

Old Man Qingzhu revealed a frivolous expression. His history was mysterious and questionable. Even Ji Mo had no idea what his actual capability was apart from the fact that he had helped Ji Mo’s father break through the Qi Plundering Boundary. That being said, this old man must possess a few tricks up his sleeve and was likely an expert of the Qi Plundering Boundary. The only thing that confused Ji Mo was why a distinguished expert of the Qi Plundering Boundary was engaging in such dirty business.

Old Man Qingzhu was holding the broken bamboo pole in one hand and a wine calabash in the other. He kept filling himself up with wine while singing some sort of popular unwritten tune, “Wine is nothing, Dao is also nothing. The drunken path to immortality is nothing; everything is but a dream. What’s the purpose of my life? Immortality is nothing, cultivation is nothing, despise the immortals who can do nothing…”

‘What sort of nonsense is this?’ Ji Mo was speechless. ‘Unless the person has too much free time, what’s the point of cultivating if immortality and cultivation are nothing?’

It was a quiet journey. Both of them hurried there but still did not manage to arrive at Boyue Town before night fell, hence they had no choice but to stay a night. They only arrived at their destination the next day.

Old Man Qingzhu shoved all the “treasures” to Ji Mo before heading to Boyue Town by himself. “I’ve run out of wine. I’ll go to search for more wine and you must finish selling all these goods by the time I return. Otherwise, you won’t receive a single Qi Gathering Pill.”

“Hey, Old Uncle, that’s not fair.” Ji Mo was at a loss of words at the old man’s behavior. The latter was embarrassed, so he left Ji Mo alone to deal with the hard labor!

Ji Mo sighed as he packed the “treasures” away before heading off to Boyue Town quietly.

Boyue Town was unexceptionally bustling with life. Numerous cultivators roamed around the town, including rogue cultivators and several disciples from some slightly well-known local sects. In the cultivation world, not every cultivator flocked to the prestigious clans. There were also several small-scale religious sects. For instance, the Nine Fire Sect and the Neptune Sect were examples of popular local sects.

In terms of power and influence, these two sects were not comparable to a regular cultivation sect such as the Tianshan Sword Sect, but there were numerous experts in the Qi Plundering Boundary among them.

Ji Mo hid in an inconspicuous corner as he watched people come and go. He was trying to choose a target.

A common cultivator would not possess an abundance of Qi Gathering Pills naturally. That was why he needed to try his best to pick people with position. For example, although disciples from the slightly powerful sects could not be called wealthy, they would have more money than rogue cultivators.

Soon, Ji Mo decided on his first target, a boorish young man. Ji Mo silently crept up to him and asked in a low voice, “Brother, do you want to buy some discs?”

The boorish young man was caught in surprise but he quickly nodded. “Let’s speak in private.”

‘Damn, it was way easier than I expected!’ Ji Mo was also shocked. He did not expect to land his first customer with such ease.

Once they arrived in an empty lane, the boorish young man looked around carefully before enquiring, “I’ve got a rather particular taste, so the common stuff isn’t enough to satisfy me.” A sparkle twinkled in the man’s eyes as he stared at the “treasures” that Ji Mo was hiding in his arms.

Ji Mo coughed drily and impersonated Old Man Qingzhu’s tone as he spoke, “Your Honor, you can get anything you want here. I have some discs portraying humans with humans, humans with beasts, humans with props, self-pleasuring, sexual intercourse, threesomes, and orgies. If these aren’t to Your Honor’s liking, I also have an illustrated edition of The Plum in the Prosperity Vase1.”

The young man looked at Ji Mo in surprise, and the initial bewilderment was soon replaced by a smutty smile. “Little Brother, you seem like a frail scholar, but you have wide knowledge in this expertise. It’s true that we can’t judge a book by its cover, you wolf…”

‘To hell with you!’ Ji Mo cursed in his heart.

“Alright, now let’s talk about money. I’ll purchase a few if I’m satisfied with the price,” said the young man.

“I’m offering humans with humans at the price of 300 Qi Gathering Pills, whereas the ones between humans and beasts are priced at 500 Qi Gathering Pills. Books and illustrations are 200 Qi Gathering Pills each,” replied Ji Mo.

“What the heck! That’s so expensive!”

“Brother, I only sell limited editions that you can’t purchase from anywhere else. Many of them star female disciples from prestigious sects. I have everything that you can imagine, and also the ones that you wouldn’t even think of,” Ji Mo imitated Old Man Qingzhu’s tone again.

Judging by the boorish young man’s outfit, he must be a disciple from one of the slightly popular sects. He hesitated for a few moments before caving in eventually. Through gritted teeth, he handed over a pill note worth 1,000 Qi Gathering Pills to Ji Mo and left with two pieces of discs about humans and beasts.

This pill note could be exchanged for Qi Gathering Pills in any of the trading centers. Although the Qi Gathering Pill was the currency in the cultivation world, not everyone would carry a large amount of the pills with them at all times. Hence, they would convert the Qi Gathering Pills into pill notes.

Ji Mo could not resist jumping in joy when he received the pill note. Even though he was from a cultivation clan, he had never held so many Qi Gathering Pills in his hands before. He was hooked on the feeling. Not only did the returns come back speedily, but he also did not need to spend any capital because he had acquired those “treasures” from Old Man Qingzhu.

In just one morning, Ji Mo managed to sell off almost half of his goods and gained over 10,000 Qi Gathering Pills. He only had a few discs left to sell before he could call it a day.

He had never experienced this pleasure of gaining so many Qi Gathering Pills in one day.
