There were two pill shops in New Julip Town, from which cultivators had the option of purchasing pills.

One was called the Heavenly Pill Pavilion and was owned by the Heaven Arts Medicinal Sect. The building was three tiers in height. Common pills and those required for cultivators of the low stages could be purchased from the ground floor curtesy one of the many polite servers. The second floor had small rooms available for cultivators wis.h.i.+ng to purchase pills privately, usually these buyers were wealthy and wanted either rare or a large number of pills. And the third floor was reserved for elite members, who could drink tea as managers tempted them with very rare and very expensive pills. It should be noted that not one of the pills sold here was less than high quality.

Heaven Pill Pavilions were usually located in cities or key towns. New Julip was one of those towns due to its close proximity to the Ascending Mountain Inst.i.tute. While the Pavilion was by no means under the impression that students would purchase their valuable wares, did not mean that the wealthy parents of a good percentage of those students would not.

Although potions could also be purchased here, it was looked down upon; the Heaven Arts Medicinal Sect felt that potions were uncouth and inelegant and had attempted for centuries to alter the recipe of Purification Potions in order to produce them in pill form. They had not yet been successful.

In contrast, the other pill shop was a little bit like a chemist and beauty wares type shop from Leon's previous world, he felt. As one walked in, there were small tables holding pink jade pill bottles holding, what the label claimed were Ageless Pills. They were on sale due to being poor to average quality. Close by, there were small clay pots containing 'Still Waters Lotion' which was able to 'whiten skin' and 'Peach Blossom Balm' able to 'cleanse skin'.

To the other side were common healing One Heart Pills and potions meant for soothing burns or healing frost bite. Further in, pills for combat, defence and cultivation were located. None were particularly eye-catching, that would be a fool who placed valuable pills and potions in easy to reach places, tempting idle fingers. Sure enough, towards the back was a counter and behind that, a chalkboard was upon the wall declaring what few rarer pills could be purchased and their prices.

The contrast between the two shops was like heaven and earth, but such didn't matter to Leon, for he was not here to look around this shop, he wanted to speak to its owner.

"Aiya! I'm so sorry for keepin' you waiting!" A pet.i.te woman with blue-black hair appeared from one corner, holding a crate that looked too big for her, but peering around it as if it were no bother regardless. She placed it upon the counter and gave the two youths a broad smile. Her eyes crinkled slightly at the corners as they shaped half-moons. "What can I get for you?"


Much like the Martial Artist women of Jin Li's school, this woman was wearing a two piece outfit of trousers and tunic. In her case, the silk was cut straight and close to the leg, rather than of flared or wide leg fas.h.i.+on that Leon had seen before. Her tunic top was b.u.t.toned with pretty knots at the neck and swept down over her body until it reached her knees, but had splits that rose to the upper thigh upon either side. The whole ivory ensemble was embroidered with peonies and b.u.t.terflies, yet edged with black making it seem less soft and more bold.

Jin Li felt that Leon was looking at the woman a little two much and pinched his waist, causing Leon's eyes to fill with water, slightly aggrieved.

"We are here t-t-to see M-Mr Ursam," Leon said, a soft questioning note to his voice as he was wondering if they had mistakenly wandered into the wrong shop.

"What did you want to see tha' pervert for?" The woman's tone altered from polite to ridiculing without hesitation and then as if she didn't care either way, she began unloading the crate of its contents. It was some sort of potion, this time in jade jars.

"Wife!" Came a whining complaint before Leon could state their purpose, now a.s.sured that this was the right shop. "You are so mean to me!"

"Well, who was it that purchased all of these inferior Serene Milk salts?" She replied, with both anger and resignation in her voice. "I can barely sell that fool's ageless pills and that is at a loss!"

"But, he was desperate," Ursam appeared and wrapped himself around the woman, completely oblivious to the fact that there were witnesses, his hands wandering over the curves of her body. "His old grandmother needed money for medicine." She slapped his hands and elbowed him in the ribs.

"His old grandmother be kickin' up daisies for close to five years!" She informed him. "Just as his cousin be a wedded wife with six little children, so what would she be needin' with dowry money? That old fool be spending our hard earned coin at whiche'er pub will let him through the door! Purchase something from tha' drunk's hands agin and I'll crush what's most precious to ya!"

Ursam visibly winced. "You wouldn't...?"

His wife's eyes narrowed. "Try me." His wandering hands stopped wandering and he gave a sigh and offered her a wounded look like a kicked puppy, which she ignored. "Now go see to our customers, they be wantin' to talk to you about somethin'."

The old Cultivator glanced up, suddenly noticing the two youths for the first time and a wicked grin split his face in two as he recalled just where he had seen the pair before. He'd had his suspicions then, but seeing as how the taller one hovered extremely closely to the smaller one, he believed he'd been right about them. And seeing those terribly large and naive eyes no longer hidden behind inch thick gla.s.ses, he could see just why the other was glaring at him as if looks could kill. Hoo hoo, this was likely going to be fun!
