In just 2 days, news of the twilight drug store instantly spread throughout the entire city of Clouds. Many people came to the drug store. Not only because the price is cheap, but the purity is almost 100%.

Customers who used to buy pills at the Chu medicinal shop even moved to the dusk medicinal shop after hearing this news. Indeed, when compared to the Chu medicinal shop, the price of pills in the twilight medicinal shop was cheaper. Even the quality was a little nicer than Chu's medicinal shop.

The more days, the customers in the drugstore twilight more and more. Even now Liu Chen had to concoct more pills. Whereas back then, he had already given all of his pills that had almost the same quality as Chu's medicinal shop to Wu Xianlun for sale. But still, it is less. As the day goes on, more and more customers.

Contrary to the Chu drugstore, now the drugstore was getting quieter and quieter after the news of a new drugstore in the city of Clouds. Slowly, all their customers went to the new drugstore. This, made the Chu family's income decrease every day.

In the office of the head of the Chu~ family

The head of the Chu family was named Chu Gao. He was seen reading the drugstore's problem report. Knowing that his drugstore was getting quieter and quieter, Chu Gao directly tore the report paper apart.

He hit the table hard. Even using his Qi. Because it was too upset that caused, the table was split into two. "Damn it! Who is the owner of the drug store?! Does he want to challenge my Chu family?!"

The person who was beside him instantly calmed Chu Gao. "Calm down, Mr. Gao. We'll find out who the drugstore owner is. We will also find out who the alchemist who made the pill pills sold by the twilight drug store"

Chu Gao tried to calm himself down. He let out a rough sigh and stood up while looking at his deputy. "Alright, you find out who the alchemist is. We will take it to our side by offering a greater advantage than the twilight drug store and find out also who the owner of the twilight drug store. I'll give him the calculation"

"Okay, Mr. Gao. Excuse me"

The representative of the Chu family head immediately went to do the order of the family head. He will order an eye to spy on the drugstore at dusk.

Unbeknownst to them, a guard who was near the workspace of the Chu family head was an eye. He heard all the words of the two people inside. He was a young man. He was assigned to be in the Chu family territory. Yes, he is Yelu.

Yelu hid as the door opened from the inside. Fortunately, the vice head of the Chu family who came out did not know Yelu's whereabouts. He smiled smirked, "Heh, you guys want to spy on our group's twilight drug store? It won't be easy. You'll only take your life, if it's there as an eye"

In the afternoon, 5 days since the opening of the drug store twilight. The Chu family sent eyes to look at the situation inside the twilight medicine shop. He pretended to be a buyer who would buy many pills. It takes tens of minutes to get into the store because of the crowd of visitors.

It is already inside. "Pulse.. Excuse me, can I see the owner of this store or the store manager? Because I wanted to order a lot of pills for him" he told a beautiful waiter.

The beautiful maid smiled, this made the eyes of the Chu family speechless and seemed amazed by the beauty of the woman in front of her.

"Let's sir, I'll take you" said the maid politely. He intended to go and be a guide for the man. His hand was immediately grabbed. He turned his body and looked at the man. "What's up, Mister?"

"Pulse.. Ah.. Ti-nothing" said the man who immediately let go of his grip.

The lady-servant smiled, "Then come with me", she again became a guide.

The man followed the waiter. "Once this shop is in the Chu family's grasp, you'll be mine" he smiled.

"Sadly, if I had not been disguised, I would have gouged out your eyes because I had dared to look at me like that" said the maid. Even if he's upset. But outside, his facial expression still seemed friendly.

He could think it was cruel because of the few days of training Liu Chen had given. Not only him, but all the members of the four divisions were people who were now almost as cruel as Liu Chen. Karna, the four divisions were trained several days by the young man in turn.

"Heh, the eyes of the Chu family finally came as well" said another female servant using telepathy.

"It looks like the man will be Jie's part. Because that man had already made Jie angry. So we don't need to bother Jie who wants to torture the man " said the female servant next door using telepathy.

"You're right. He came here just to deliver life. He didn't have to bother coming here. We will also visit his family in two days. I can't wait to 'guest' to the Chu family"

"I also can't wait to 'guest' to their families"

Now, the female and male servants who were the eyes of the Chu family had arrived inside Liu Chen's study. Someone seemed to be looking back at them both. The man was also seen staring out the window.

"Sir, someone wants to meet you. He said he wanted to order a lot of pills on us" said the maid, who goes by the pseudonym Jie.

Liu Chen turned his body and smiled, "Ah is that so? All right, come with me, sir. I will escort you to our alchemist and yes, introduce me to the owner of this drugstore. Now come with me"

The man nodded and smiled, "Thank you"

"It turns out the owner of this drugstore is very young. He was also even stupid for showing where the alchemist was before asking what pills I would buy" the man's inner self with a mocking smile. But he did not show it to Liu Chen.

Liu Chen immediately walked over to the man. He immediately stared at the large bookshelf on the side and directly shifted in front of the bookshelf. Instantly, the bookshelf opened like a door. Liu Chen looked back at the man and smiled, "Let's enter Master. Our alchemist is inside. It just so happened that he was making some pills"

The man came to a realization from his astonishment when he heard Liu Chen's voice. He nodded and went inside.

"Let me do it, chief" Jie said with a smile.

Liu Chen nodded. "Well, what do you need?"

"Dagger, rope Qi and whip"

Liu Chen took out the three objects requested by Jie and gave them to the woman. "Recover it your own way. I will make a soundproof shield behind this bookshelf " Liu Chen said telepathically.

"Well", Jie then went inside and the door to the shelf was immediately closed by Liu Chen. Afterwards, Liu Chen instantly made a soundproof protector.

Liu Chen immediately sat behind his desk and started working on the documents there. "Quite a lot of orders as well" Liu Chen murmured.

Behind the bookshelf, the man found no one. Inside there was also a little light. He turned around and intended to ask the whereabouts of the alchemist Liu Chen had said. He stopped when he saw Jie approaching him.

"Didn't the owner of this drugstore say there was an alchemist inside? Then where is he now?" said the man. He looked at Jie from top to bottom. "Are you the alchemist who said that?"

Jie smiled in return. He hid both his hands behind his back. The man did not even realize that he was holding something behind his back.

The man looked to the right and left. He also looked behind Jie and found out that there was only himself and Jie inside. "Is today my lucky day?" he smiled meaningfully. He looked at Jie. However, he was surprised that Jie was no longer where he was.

"Where is that woman?" the inner man. He intends to look back. However, he suddenly hit the floor with a hard head back slamming the floor.

"Ahhk", now he felt very dizzy as his head hit the floor hard. Initially, his head had been grabbed from behind by someone. Then, his head hit the floor hard. When he had just sat down, his hands were already tied back. "A-what happened?!"

The man is now sitting on the floor. He looked around him. His eyes turned somewhat because of his aching head. But slowly his vision became clear. He could see Jie in front of him with a dagger and whip in both of the woman's hands.

"A-what are you doing?"

Jie smiled without any guilt at all, and she replied casually, "What am I doing? Hm.. I just want to clean up the disgusting cockroaches in front of me"

The man realized that what Jie meant was him. She gritted her teeth angrily as she looked at Jie, "You're just a waitress. Don't be like me, I come from the Chu family. You will get in trouble if you dare to hurt me" he said arrogantly.

"Heh, you're saying I'm just a waiter? Well.. You're right, I'm a waiter. But it's just a false identity. I'm actually the one from the shadow mask group's assassin division. You should be proud to die on my side which is one of the members of that group.

"A-what do you want to do? Don't try anything like me or you'll get into trouble from the Chu family" the man threatened. He hid his fear when he saw the evil grin of the woman in front of him. Really, he did not expect, the woman he liked was a creepy woman.

"Hoho, I better tell you what we're here for. Well.. I tell him now so that your spirit does not wander because of curiosity later.

Our purpose here is actually to slaughter the Chu family. You think your Chu family is a powerful and powerful family so that you can act as you please?

Heh, you are but frogs in the well who do not know the breadth of the world. There are still many people who are even stronger than you. So don't be arrogant just because you're the strongest family in this Cloud city"

"you guys? What all employees including the owner of this drug store include-"

Jie interrupted the man in front of her, "Yes, all the employees here are members of the group. Then, the owner of this drugstore is one of our chiefs. You're lucky to know the identity of one of the leaders in our group and we'll come to the Chu family in two more days and then slaughter them without a trace"

"You can't do it! You are weaklings, there is no way you can slaughter the Chu family!" deny the man.

"Hehe it's just you think. You don't know how great we are" said Jie, who began to boast.

"What exactly is the reason you guys want to slaughter the Chu family?!", annoyed the man.

"Ah~ is because of the wishes of one of our members who is fully guided by the chairman. All right, we'll finish this conversation. I didn't want to make the chairman wait long", he grinned again.

The man swallowed his saliva. "What do you want to do?!", he immediately panicked when he saw Jie start whipping his whip to the floor.

"Ah, it's nothing", Jie directly whipped the man in front of her.

Chetarr

"Arrkhh, stop"

"It's only been once and you've been in pain? Weak!"

Chetarr

"Aarrkhh, stop telling me!"

Chetarr

Chetarr

The whips continuously hit the man's body. He was even immediately sprawled on the floor after receiving his 8th whip. His body looks bloody. Because Jie wasn't wearing a lower-level whip. The middle level. Coupled with Jie who drained her Qi to make the whip even sharper.

"See, this is all you've been in pain like that? Weak-headed. Alright, I'll use the second thing I brought", Jie put down her whip and clasped the dagger in her right hand.

The man looked very sick at the moment. His body was red and bloody. "D-damn it, what else do you do-right?!"

"Hehe", Jie simply laughed lightly. He approached the man in front of him who was lying down.

Jlebb

"Aarrhkk!"

Jie directly thrust a dagger into the man's eyes and directly poked him. The screams of pain sounded very heartbreaking.

"This is because you dare to look at me impolitely" Jie said.

The man did not listen at all to Jie's words. Because it was in so much pain. His eyes had just been poked out. He held his right eye that was poked out. Blood dripped and came out through his between fingers.

Jie held onto the eyes that she had just been cobbling with. He immediately dropped it and stepped on it as if it was just useless trash. "Alright, now it's over having fun. I'll end this quickly"

"Aarrrkkh"

Outside the bookshelf, now there was not only Liu Chen there. But the members who disguised themselves as employees were there. The drugstore is closed. Because they are closed at night.

"How is the drugstore doing now? Is everything going well?" said Liu Chen.

"Yes, chairman Xun" said 7 people who are members of the division. The members in disguise only numbered 8 people, including Jie. While the rest were watching over the Chu family from afar. There were also those who were looking for people to replace them into store maids. Because they certainly will not stay long in the city of Clouds.

"Jie is a bit old too" Liu Chen said.

Shortly after saying so, the bookshelf was knocked from behind the bookshelf. Liu Chen smiled. He immediately removed the soundproof protector he had made.

From behind the bookshelf came a beautiful woman. His hands look bloody. All eyes were on the woman.

"You've been a long time. Just finished?" wu Xianlun.

Jie just chuckled, "Well.. Thus", he looked at Liu Chen and gave the three things he had borrowed earlier. "Thank you for lending me this, chief"

Liu Chen nodded and held onto one by one of the three objects. All the blood on the three objects instantly evaporated after Liu Chen used his fire element to remove the blood that was there.

Liu Chen put the three items back into his space ring.

An undercover assassin division woman directly used her power and made a water ball. He directly aimed the water ball at Jie's hand and finally made the woman's hand clean of blood.

"Thank you", Jie smiled at his friend.

The woman replied with a smile. The water bubble that was in Jie's hand instantly returned to him after Jie's hand had already been estimated clean. In the water bubble, there was a red mixture because of the blood on Jie's hand earlier.

Liu Chen made a fireball and aimed it at the water bubble. Instantly, the water bubbles instantly evaporated along with the blood present in them.

Liu Chen took away the fire. After the water bubbles evaporate completely. He stared at each member in front of him. "It looks like the Chu family will send eyes again here. If it keeps happening and we finish them off, then they'll suspect that we have a strong man. That way, they will be alert"

All the members of the assassin division disguised as servants and guards were menacing their cultivation levels. They only showed cultivation levels below their true level. So people only know that the guards and servants in this drugstore are not too strong or arguably also have average strength.

"So before they become vigilant, we will attack them first. So the slaughter plan in the Chu family could have been accelerated. You have to be ready under any circumstances, got it?" said Liu Chen.

"Understand chief!" say the members in unison.
