Seeing Jiang Wuhen and the others leave, everyone whispered about their origins, but the middle-aged man stared after them with a dark expression.

He was called Wei Zhixuan, and he was the sect master of the Jade Peak Sect. In Wu Cang City, he was considered a big shot that could shake the whole area with a single step.

​ 

Wei Zhixuan’s ancestors were originally disciples of a sect, and there had been several famous experts among them. The Wei family was considered to have quite the reputation among the sects. Their marital alliances were mostly with descendants of sects, so they had good networking with the other sects. However, with the passing of the sect’s experts, the aptitude of their descendants was steadily declining. In the end, they couldn’t even compete against the outer disciples and could only manage businesses for the sect.

Although the descendants of the Wei family were not as talented as their predecessors, they were shrewder when it came to business. After dozens of generations, they had become wealthy. Wei Zhixuan’s father was very capable, and during his time, he had managed to establish himself and the Jade Peak Sect.

Ever since Wei Zhixuan took over the Jade Peak Sect, he had strengthened and grown the Jade Peak Sect through his rich family background and connections. Although it was not comparable to larger sects with ancient histories, it could still be considered the leader of the smaller sects around Wu Cang City, and was quite reputable.

“Damn, who the hell is this kid who keeps ruining my business?!” Wei Zhixuan slammed his fist on the table and snarled angrily. He was a regular customer at the auctions, and everyone usually gave him due respect, but today, he was being forced to take Jiang Wuhen’s leftovers. He could forgive losing the first few bids, but that Gold Transformation Jade Liquid was extremely important to him. He had been determined to get it, but he never expected that it would fall into Jiang Wuhen’s hands. Ten thousand White Jade Crystals… he really couldn’t understand where the kid had gotten so much money.

“Brother Wei, do you not know where they come from?” A thin young man next to him asked in surprise.

“Do you know?” Wei Zhixuan glared at him. Although his Jade Peak Sect was powerful in Wu Cang City, it was still impossible to know everything, right? Jiang Wuhen was not a native of Wu Cang City, so how was Wei Zhixuan supposed to know about him? As if he had the time to investigate such menial issues!

“I coincidently know a little about them. Some people that came to Wu Cang City yesterday stayed at my inn, and as they were leisurely chatting, I overheard part of their conversation,” the young man whispered conspiratorially.

“Let’s hear it then.” Wei Zhixuan was all ears. ‘Don’t even know where these nouveau riche came from and they actually dared to stir up trouble in my town and snatch my precious treasures! If they have a big backing then it’s fine, but if not, I’ll show them what happens when someone offends me, Wei Zhixuan!’

“I heard them mention reviving their sect, something about the Su family, and some Golden Pill Sect. If I’m not wrong, they’re most likely the descendants of the Golden Pill Sect.”

“The Golden Pill Sect’s Su family… It’s no wonder they looked unfamiliar. So it was actually them, hehehe…” Wei Zhixuan’s mind was going back and forth as his lips curved into a sinister smirk.

He had also heard the news that the descendants of the Golden Pill Sect had returned to their sect. However, it was not an easy task to gain a foothold among the sects. Rebuilding the sect would no doubt be difficult, and financial ability and connections were indispensable, so he did not take it to heart.

Seeing Jiang Wuhen splurge like that, Wei Zhixuan was originally worried that he was from a big sect that he could not afford to provoke. Now, knowing that he was a descendant of the Golden Pill Sect, he couldn’t care less. As a descendant of a sect that had been destroyed for over thousands of years, what kind of cultivation could he possibly possess?

Wei Zhixuan’s eyes glittered with malicious intent. ‘Since you dare grab food from the tiger’s mouth, I will make you spit out whatever you swallowed today… with interest.’
