Chapter 21
The crows viciously attacked the shopkeeper. This shows their desperate need to protect their food and the hostility from being disturbed.
Shopkeeper Yu is a low degree cultivator. In normal circ.u.mstances, him trying to face a small group of crows should not be a problem, however, aside from the clear fact that there are thousands of crows around, these crows are also from Mount Hua. The mountain for spirit beast!
His feeble attempt to defend himself and attack at the same time is useless.
Even Xi Ma, whose cultivation level is relatively high, is still not confident to go against this high number of crows.
He is also not impulsive enough to just rush alone and face thousands of crows!
Never in his dreams!
He can just helplessly look at the stupid Shopkeeper Yu who was already being attacked by the crows.
Regardless of how stupid his action was, this did not even register in Shopkeeper Yu's mind. The only thing that's running through his mind is that he has to work hard to hide his cheap walnuts!
Though that was his initial thought, as soon as he was attacked by the crows and realized his attempt to defend was worthless. He became devastated
"Help! Help!" He desperately asked for help, but no one was brave enough to come closer.
He tried to escape from the crows, but more attacked in all directions. The attack was brutal and savage.
Every peck of the crow left a hole in his flesh and the more blood comes out from his wound the more he is being attacked!
"Someone! Anyone! Help me!" He desperately asked for help. "I will give anything!" He continued to shout.
Looking at the desperate Shopkeeper Yu, Xi Ma gazed at Gao Lan Mei with the intention to ask for help. But he does not know how to tell this to her.
He has a strong hunch that the reason why the crows are here is related to her.
Gao Lan Mei felt Xi Ma's gaze, she tilted her head and said, "Do not worry, this will not kill him." Her tone was still indifferent, but the cold glint that reflected from her eyes were not hidden.
After hearing Gao Lan Mei's statement, Xi Ma's eyes widened due to shock. 'It's really her!' This only confirms that she commanded the crows! How powerful is that?!
"He still needs to eat a walnut after all." She continued and just ignored Xi Ma's shocked expression.
At this time, she wondering if she can bargain Xi Ma's blood for the shopkeeper's life.

Not far away from the Medical Pavilion courtyard, Wei Jiayi was watching everything that is happening in the Medical Pavilion with an amused expression.
The malicious smile on his beautiful face is present. Most would feel attracted to the smile.
Only his subordinates know that his current smile means bad luck for anyone that causes this.
It's been a while since he watched a good show. It still does not remove the fact that this has bothered him a lot.
Aside from that, his shopkeeper's action did not go unnoticed. A stupid action with the desperation to defend.
He always believed that mortals will not be desperate if they do not have a reason. It is also in the mortal's nature to be on the safe side or not act without benefits.
Watching his own shopkeeper became the plaything of the crows looks interesting to Wei Jiayi.
