Chapter 2027 Peaceful Days

Alex and the rest moved the Dawn Apothecary Store to a new location with a larger space and more rooms within it. They expanded the shop, and as a result, had to hire a few more people to work there as well.

There were 4 new staff members, not including Pearl who was working as a simple clerk at this point. His job was nothing more than to welcome the incoming customers and help answer questions if they had any.

He knew just enough about everything to guide the new customers around the shop and give them what they wanted.

The four new staff were all recently licensed alchemists from the Blackfrost Alchemy guild, who mostly made pills for Saints and weaker individuals. They were all Immortals, however, and could make Immortal pills too if the customers wanted to commission them, so long as they knew that they weren't very good at making them.

Fang Yuxie stopped working as a clerk fully and was now working as an Alchemist in the shop. She was at the same level as the other four new alchemists who were hired, and that was more than enough for Alex.

She had also learned a bit about medicine and diseases, but until she got her Physician license, she wouldn't be allowed to work there at all.

Rocksoul was on the same level as them as well, but unlike the others, he was good enough that his pills were close to making him a Superior Alchemist. Without a doubt, he would be the first one of the group to become one.

Wang Yanwei and Alex were of course the only resident Superior Immortal Alchemists, and they were quite popular among the general residents of the city. Even when they moved shop. People still found a way to come to them.

Wang Yanwei was of course a popular alchemist from the start, but Alex's popularity had been slowly increasing over time, and was now a name that people had at least heard of once.

The thing that made him so famous was the fact that most of his pills were cheaper than market prices, which made the customers keep coming back to them.

The ingredients for that pill were quite expensive so Alex decided he would stick to the Blank Canvas pill for now. However, there was the problem of White Canvas Daisy being quite rare, all things considered, so there wouldn't be that many pills he could make.

At the very least, he would have to be very careful how he made use of that pill as he couldn't go around using it for any ordinary pill. There was still one pill though which he didn't even dare attempt. The Heavensent Invincibility pill was a scary one for him still, and unless he broke through to the next realm, he had no plans of using it at all.

Thankfully, he had been working hard with his cultivation recently, spending extra time to improve as one of the tickets depended on how fast he could reach the Immortal Ascendant 5th realm.

As such, in nearly 5 years' time, he was close to breaking through once again. In just a year more, he would be more than able to break through easily. Alex's life had been going rather smoothly lately, but as with every good thing, it didn't last very long. Alex and the others were in the process of closing the shop when a young man came up to him.

"Senior Dawnblade," the young man said meekly.

Alex turned around and looked at the young man. He was confused. "Is there a delivery today? I thought we got our batch for the week."

"I'm not here for an ingredient delivery, senior," the young man said. "Our young miss has requested your presence."

Alex looked around, turning toward Wang Yanwei who frowned. "Did the store owner tell you what is happening?" he asked the young man.

"No, but she said that it was important. And that you wanted her to tell you to come," the young man said.

Those were all the words Alex needed to understand what was happening. He sighed.

"Let's head on over," Alex said. "Our peaceful days of running the store might be entering a tumultuous period now."
