Peerless Taoist

This was not an ordinary cultivator sect, nor was it a space pirate, but a true army of the Imperial Court.    

No one dared to go against the Imperial Court, that was simply courting death.    

"All of you stop!"    

At this moment, a roar sounded out from the sky.    

Cao Kun brought a group of people and rushed over with a gloomy expression.    

Wolf Smoke City was the closest city to the Medicine Alliance. The medicinal herb business here was extremely hot. When he heard that Tang Jun was openly robbing the medicinal herb shop, Cao Kun finally could not sit still.    

Many of the industries here were listed under the medicinal herb alliance.    

Ceng! Ceng! Ceng!    

Seeing a group of people approaching, the surrounding soldiers pulled out their swords.    

"Who are you? Don't bother with things that don't have to do with you!" The general impatiently waved his hand.    

When Cao Kun saw the miserable state of the medicinal herb shops around him, his face immediately sank. "I am the alliance leader of the medicinal herb alliance, Cao Kun. Who ordered you to casually snatch the goods of the merchants?"    

"So it's Alliance Leader Cao. I was just about to look for you. Since you came, it saved me the trouble of making a trip."    

Who would have thought that when the general in front of him heard Cao Kun's name, he would not be surprised. Instead, he sneered.    

Cao Kun frowned. "Why are you looking for me?"    

He could not remember what sort of relationship he had with the general in front of him.    

The general loudly said, "Under the orders of Young Master Li Fu, we are now forcefully recruiting medicinal herbs from the Alliance of Medicinal Herbs to replenish the army. All of you must cooperate with all your might. Those who disobey will be executed!"    

What!?    

When Cao Kun heard this news, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning.    

"Is Li Fu crazy?" Cao Kun gritted his teeth and said.    

Even during the Taiqian Emperor's era, Zhao Tianyin had absolute control over the sects in the pugilistic world. He had never treated merchants like this before.    

They were an alliance of medicinal herbs, different from ordinary sects in the pugilistic world. They were a combination of a group of merchants, and they controlled the lifeline of a place.    

And the medicinal herbs were the goods in their hands.    

Without medicinal herbs, the entire alliance of medicinal herbs would have no business and would only be on the verge of extinction in the end.    

At that time, it would have an unprecedented impact on the economy of a place. Furthermore, there would not be any merchants willing to come here in the future.    

The general sneered and suddenly called for a few soldiers to stop moving, saying, "I knew that merchants like you would do anything for the sake of benefits. Look, this is what you are doing!"    

With that, the general opened the box in the soldier's hands.    

Within the box were neatly piled up jade boxes, within which were the Thunderfire Snow Lotuses, shining with a dazzling light.    

"Didn't you say that the Thunderfire Snow Lotuses were sold? Why would I be here and find so many of them?" The general said in a deep voice.    

Cao Kun's heart was clogged with blood, and he almost spat it out.    

If I say that I don't have any goods on the surface, that is a method commonly used by merchants. Why should I tell you the truth?    

"So what? Whether we sell or not is our right." Cao Kun gritted his teeth and said.    

When the general heard this, his eyes widened and he roared, "If you don't sell it to us, then you will be sponsoring the enemy. You will be committing a great crime of colluding with the enemy! Not locking you in a cell is already an act of leniency to you. Don't give us face and be shameless."    

At this moment, the general's eyes were completely red, and his face was even paler.    

This was the result of the long term soul being damaged and not receiving any treatment.    

If the soul was damaged for a long period of time, some cultivators would become more and more irritable, and some would even develop inner demons that would eventually lead to qi deviation.
