Chapter 384: Chapter 19 Are We Still Robbing?
Within the grand hall of the Wanxiang Sect, Qiu Yufei stood before a tombstone, his worries apparent, head weighed down like a bull’s.
He, alongside Zhang Xuan, was among the experts who had recently arrived at Tianli City. In this city, he was merely a novice, but back in the Zhou Yi Dynasty, his name was widely acclaimed.
Once, with sword in hand, he slew three thousand bandits, becoming renowned far and wide.
Not yet thirty-five, his cultivation had already reached the pinnacle of Galaxy 6-dan. However, a past injury left him stagnant for five years, unable to break through, prompting the thought to venture to the Central Region.
He intended to take advantage of the territory and resources to strive for a higher cultivation realm.
Having liquidated all his savings from over the years and sold everything sellable, he gathered enough for the transportation fees and some leftover. Clutching hundreds of Destiny Plates, he thought that even here, he could lead a modestly affluent life. Yet, he couldn’t afford even the simplest of rooms...
...
Without a room, one cannot obtain citizenship. At most, one can only stay for three days before being expelled from the city, destined to wander the outside world.
Although no one spoke of what lay beyond the city walls, it was well-known that rebels and Primordial Beasts were rampant. Without the city’s protection, survival was not guaranteed.
“What should we do?”
A gentle voice sounded.
His dao companion, Cui Yunxiang.
This Cui Yunxiang, also the leader of a sect, was extremely renowned in the Zhou Yi Dynasty. Their union was envied by many, deemed a match made in heaven.
But now, these favored children of the heavens found themselves flustered about buying the simplest dwelling, like ordinary people struggling at society’s bottom.
“We obviously can’t afford to buy. Perhaps... we should turn to robbery!”
As the thought struck him, Qiu Yufei’s eyes flickered.
“Robbery?”
Startled, Cui Yunxiang couldn’t help but look over, “Tianli City surely doesn’t permit robbery, right? Besides, rob who? How?”
Qiu Yufei gritted his teeth, “This place definitely doesn’t allow robbery, which is why it’s so safe. I mean, we do it quietly, without letting anyone know... As for the target, naturally it’s that Zhang Xuanqing who just got a lesson from Captain Su!”
Cui Yunxiang frowned, “Why him? Isn’t he supposed to be very strong?”
They had witnessed him battling Captain Su, defeating several Galaxy 6-dan experts with a single sword strike. Rob him... are you sure that’s not a mistake?
Qiu Yufei said, “Indeed, he’s strong, hence he must carry a lot of money. If successful, it should cover a house without issue! As for another reason... he offended Captain Su. Even if robbed, he surely wouldn’t dare utter a word!”
“Didn’t I just see Captain Su taking him away? They must have reconciled by now...” Cui Yunxiang wondered.
A statement of fairness that everyone should know about.
“Who is this... person?”
Seeing this old man so arrogant, beating someone without fear, Qiu Yufei could no longer hold back and turned to look at someone on the side.
“He’s the leader of our Wanxiang Sect...” the other person said in a low voice.
“The leader?”
Qiu Yufei’s face was full of shock.
The leader hitting Captain Su, and Zhang Xuanqing, who came with them, standing by, trying to stop it... Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on?
“Zhang gongzi, I was wrong, I won’t dare to do it again...”
Seeing the leader heading towards him again, Su Mingchen couldn’t hold back any longer and hurriedly went in front of Zhang Xuan, kneeling down.
At this moment, he was the only one who could save him.
“Alright then!”
Zhang Xuan shook his head and looked towards Lai Chengyi, “Master Lai, all this beating isn’t good, if it really can’t be helped, just offer compensation...”
“Since Zhang gongzi has spoken, let’s leave it be. Su Mingchen, you are lucky this time. Get up and thank Zhang gongzi for his great kindness!”
Master Lai Chengyi scolded.
“Yes, yes, thank you Zhang gongzi...”
Su Mingchen kept kneeling and kowtowing, tears sliding down his face incessantly.
If he had known this guy was so powerful, he wouldn’t have fucking acted tough...
While he was feeling regret, not far away Cui Yunxiang couldn’t hold back any longer and looked at Qiu Yufei, her long-admired partner, “Qiu Lang, do we... still rob him?”
“...”
Qiu Yufei’s eyelids twitched, wanting to cry.
Rob my ass!
Captain Su got off lightly for merely offending him; if he really tried to rob, he probably wouldn’t live to see tomorrow’s second sun...
