Florida Man's General Store in Cultivation World

Chapter 50 – Florida Man Searches for Sexy Alligator to be His Wife

While Xu Nuan and Leo chatted, the followers and disciples of Amazonian Sanctuary caught up with the former. They came out of the forest and stood behind her.

The young women in green robes wore thick veils to hide their faces. However, their clothes highlighted their figures and showed their sexy long legs.

Leo inwardly laughed at the women and shook his head.

'You're hiding your faces, but you're showing your legs. Are you seeking attention or do you want to hide your beauty? Make up your mind!'

Leo looked away from the young girls. Even though he hadn't seen a woman in 50,000 years, he didn't feel the excitement or drive like when he was a human. Moreover, none of them was his type.

He was into something otherworldly that no sane person could comprehend.

"Ahem," Leo coughed. "I see that you bring companions. Well, welcome to my store. Are you looking for something peculiar? Maybe you might need something from my store."

Xu Nuan came back to her senses. She turned around and found her 20 disciples, who tagged along to gain experience. Xu Nuan wryly smiled and informed the women.

"Be respectful toward this senior. His Daoist title is Florida Man. Also, keep the veils on."

"Yes, senior," The young women cupped their fists.

Xu Nuan turned her attention to Leo. She asked, "What kind of store are you running, senior?"

"Just general stuff, food, pills, and random consumables," Leo turned around and opened the doors for them. The cool air from the air conditioner left the building, and the ladies were surprised.

"Cold air?"

"Y-Yin Qi?!"

"No, I sense other elements! T-There are other Qi!"

Leo rolled his eyes and ignored the exclamation. He entered the building, inviting the group in.

Xu Nuan swallowed her pride and fear. She glanced at her disciples, "Stay here. Come in when I tell you."

"Y-Yes, master."

Xu Nuan followed Leo into the store for the first time.

When Xu Nuan entered the building, she gasped in astonishment. Like the others, she was interested in the spatial distortion array and the secret of the store.

"Spatial Array? Senior Florida Man, are you an array master?"

Leo shrugged and made an excuse, "More like an alchemist. As for the store, you can say that I'm relying on a friend's help."

"Friend?" Xu Nuan was curious, "Can I know the name, senior? Maybe, I could ask him to help my sect expand my warehouse."

Leo shook his head. As he couldn't tell that he got this perk from a system, he made up a fake identity of his friend, "He's dead."

"Oh, I'm so sorry… What was his name?"

"His Daoist name was Wilson. He was a silent guy, and his head was very round – like a volleyball. He… died in a sea."

"Wilson?"

Leo giggled as he was sure that nobody in this world would understand the reference and the real identity of Wilson, "Do you know him?"

"I'm afraid I don't. Umm, anyway," Xu Nuan dryly laughed and looked around. Instantly, her eyes fixated on a showcase refrigerator, which contained hundreds of Yin Cabbages.

Xu Nuan was a monster tamer, and many monster pets under her care needed Yin Qi from food. She also tried to grow Yin Cabbages in her sanctuary, but she always failed. Seeing so many cabbages in the store, Xu Nuan was excited.

"Senior, how much are the cabbages? Can I buy all of them?"

Leo widely grinned. He immediately activated the shop domain system, allowing Xu Nuan to see her lifespan.

DING

.

Name: Xu Nuan

Age: 113

Remaining Lifespan: 1,077 Years, 9 Months, 5 Days, 5 Hours, 6 Minutes

.

Leo raised his eyebrows, impressed by the woman's vitality. She had more lifespan than Han Hao, Han Meng, and other geezers around her age.

Meanwhile, Xu Nuan almost fell on her butt in shock. Her shaking hand pointed at her status window as she had never seen anything like it.

"W-What is this?!"

"Your lifespan, ma'am."

"My… lifespan?"

"Yes, your remaining days. It slowly ticks down. Once it reaches zero, you will die by a natural cause."

"O-Oh…"

Xu Nuan gulped. She extended her hand to touch the floating screen, but her arms went through it. She then asked Leo, "A-Are you a life force cultivator, sir?"

"You can say that," Leo giggled and explained how his store worked. "Also, my store only accepts lifespan. Normally, I sell one yin cabbage for 50 years of lifespan. But since this is your first visit, I'll only sell it for 10 years per cabbage. How about it?"

"…"

.

[Cabbage of Extreme Yin]

This poisonous cabbage can only be found in a demonic realm as it is one of demon's staple food. No cultivator should consume this as it is full of Poison Qi and yin miasma. However, it can be used in alchemy to make potent poison.

[Alchemy Recipe – Demonic Poison Potion]

One Cabbage of Extreme Yin

One Liter of Yin Fluid

One of any Poison Element Catalyst

Poison Qi

.

Xu Nuan was taken aback. She only wanted the cabbages as pet food. However, 10 years per cabbage was still expensive.

"Can I pay with spirit stones, senior?"

Leo rubbed his chin, "Spirit stones?"

"Yes. Can I pay one million spirit stones per cabbage?"

Xu Nuan was aware that yin cabbages were rare, and they could only be found in a mystic realm with thick Yin Qi. Still, she didn't know that it could be used in alchemy.

Leo closed his eyes and pondered. He thought of the blue stones that he got from the assassins and wondered if they were spirit stones.

'If those blue stones are spirit stones, I should gather more of them. Every spirit stone can be turned into essence stones, right? And those essence stones seem more valuable than spirit stones.'

For the sake of securing a returning customer, Leo compromised and made a counteroffer.

"You're quite a bargainer. Alright. I'll sell you these cabbages. However, there's a condition."

"A condition?"

"For every cabbage you buy, I want 100 regular cabbages on top of the one million spirit stones. How about it?"

"Regular cabbages?"

Xu Nuan was confused. She paused to think and look around the store, looking at Golden Sand Bananas, Immortal grass, Bloodmelons, grain pills, and Yang Flame Dans.

Pills and Dans?

Xu Nuan recalled Leo's words that he was an alchemist. Then, she began putting pieces of a puzzle together.

'He has plenty of resources from mystic realms. He can kill a soul formation cultivator like Ouyang Long. He isn't afraid of the Ouyang Family. Wait a second. Aren't those dans emitting fire essence? Only grand master alchemists can make flame essence cultivation pills! Also, he makes a strange request for regular cabbages. Does that mean…'

Xu Nuan took several deep breaths. Unlike Han Hao or Wu Buyi, she directly asked Leo to confirm her theories.

"Senior Florida Man, are you an immortal?"

Once again, Leo was taken aback. He tried to avoid the question, "Define immortal."

"Well, for example, you can freely travel between worlds. Your cultivation base is at the Celestial Stage or higher, or you have been living over 3,000 years."

"Does living more than 3,000 years count?" Leo was amused.

"Well, mortals can't live longer than 3,000 years. The highest record that a quasi-immortal made long ago was 2,950 years or so before he turns into ash."

"Oh," Leo stroked his beard and laughed. He joked with Xu Nuan. "If I go by your logic, wouldn't I be a deity? I've been living for 50,000 years."

"WHAT!?!" Xu Nuan was shocked once again. Her face was as pale as a sheet, and she sweated profusely.

Leo paused and covered his mouth. He had the urge to slap his lips for revealing sensitive information. He feigned laughing and changed the subject, "It was a joke. Please forget about it. Let's talk about the cabbages. Do you accept my condition?"

Xu Nuan came back to her senses. She knelt and cupped her fist, "I'm willing to work for you, senior!"

"Err…"

"Just say the word. As long as you won't harm me or my disciples, I'm willing to do anything even if you ask for my purity."

"…"

Leo's expression turned dark. He inwardly cursed.

'Who would want to bed an old hag like you?! I'd rather bang a sexy alligator than doing it with an old woman! I just want your lifespan. Gimme your lifespan, dammit!'

He coughed and averted from the subject, "Don't go overboard. I only need normal cabbages. Do you think I'm a sex fiend?"

Xu Nuan looked up and blushed in embarrassment. She also let out a sigh of relief.

"Thank you very much for your benevolence. If you need anything else, please tell me!"

Once again, Xu Nuan spoke like a robot, trying to get on his good side.

Seeing how Xu Nuan was humble, Leo had an idea, "How about you can do that now? I need customers and lifespan. Do you think your followers might find my items useful? I can sell them for cheap, but they have to pay with their lifespan, though."

Xu Nuan nodded in agreement, "That won't be a problem. Actually, our sanctuary's training method focuses on Water Techniques, and water Qi from the Bloodmelons will be very useful."

Hearing that Xu Nuan's people might love Bloodmelons, Leo gave her an incentive. He secretly added her as an employee of the store, encouraging her to bring more customers to his shop.

DING

<You have been enlisted as the general store's employee.>

Xu Nuan heard a mysterious voice. Once again, she was surprised.

Leo explained, "From now on, every time you buy items from me, I'll give you a discount. If you introduce customers to me, I'll pay you a 10% commission from what I receive from the transactions, okay? If they pay with lifespan, I'll share you the lifespan I obtain. If they pay with spirit stones, I'll give you spirit stones. Deal?"
