Sometimes I frown, sometimes I drink tea and think quietly.
After a guard whispered in Xiang Mingzhi's ear, Xiang Mingzhi put down the chess piece in his hand with some confusion, a trace of astonishment flashed across his face.
"What? Which troublemaker is causing our mentor Xiang trouble?" Si Qing asked.
"I didn't expect that the special recruit introduced by Qin Wushuang would be so ruthless and quite capable." Xiang Mingzhi said helplessly.
"Oh? You got into trouble on your second day of school?" Si Qing asked.
"Let's not talk about causing trouble, but he beat up the Jiang Qing family members who came to blackmail him, and then blackmailed each of them with eight thousand spirit stones." Xiang Mingzhi knew what he was doing.
"puff!"
A mouthful of tea spurted from Si Qing's mouth. Looking at Xiang Mingzhi's gloomy and uncertain expression, Si Qing knew that this new special admissions student would definitely give him a lot of surprises.
…
In the cave, Ling Xiao gathered all the properties of several storage rings together.
After roughly tapping it, I found that there were as many as 200,000 spiritual stones alone.
"Tsk, in this rich and wealthy place, extortion is really a good business. It's much better than fighting and killing in Huangyuan City." Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"You little brat, your heart is getting darker and darker." Xie Shizi couldn't help but laugh.
There were reasons why Ling Xiao didn't kill Jiang Qing. Firstly, he was new and had no one to rely on. If he killed people casually in the divine palace, he would violate the sect's rules and the gain would outweigh the loss. Secondly, these children of the aristocratic family could become his long-term meal ticket.
Why not do it?
Because there is a vacancy in the materials for refining the talisman in the silver ring, Ling Xiao is now short of money, very short of money!
Therefore, he had to think of some ways to make quick money.
…
Three days passed quietly. Ling Xiao was practicing in the cave besides purchasing the materials needed for refining the talisman.
In the early morning, Ling Xiao had just finished his night of practice when he heard someone yelling and cursing outside the cave.
Ling Xiao couldn't help but feel happy.
The money tree is here!
"Xiao Ling, get out of here! Do you think I won't kill you today?"
Jiang Qing kept yelling and cursing outside the cave. When he saw the fluctuations in the spiritual formation outside the cave, he quickly retreated and hid behind a burly man.
At this time, Jiang Yuan's appearance also attracted a group of outer disciples.
Many people have heard about how this special recruiter beat Jiang Qing and others violently a few days ago.
But seeing Jiang Yuan's arrival, they already felt sorry for Ling Xiao. After all, Jiang Yuan's strength should not be underestimated!
Ling Xiao yawned and walked out indifferently.
"Are you Xiao Ling?" Jiang Yuan said sharply.
"Cousin, that's him! That's this kid!" Jiang Qing echoed from the side.
"What? Xiao Qingqing, your face doesn't hurt anymore?" Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"you!"
Jiang Qing's face showed anger, and Ling Xiao's slaps were so hard that his face still hurt. He even used a gauze to wrap up his cheeks, which were swollen like a pig's head.
"Boy, you are crazy." Jiang Yuan said sternly.
"What, you're here to give money too?" Ling Xiao asked back.
The disciples around him were shocked one after another. Who is Jiang Yuan? He is one of the top thirty figures in the inner courtyard!
How dare this special admissions student be so provocative!
"Boy, you are looking for death!"
Jiang Yuan said sharply, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
"Oh, it just so happens. I'm a little short of money recently, so let's set up a bet. Three days later, when we go to the beacon tower, I'll give you three moves. If you can survive even one move in my hand, I'll lose.
"Ling Xiao smiled lightly.
mad!
So crazy!
All the disciples around him looked confused, and they even suspected that there was something wrong with this special recruit's mind.
Jiang Yuan's chest heaved violently and his eyes widened.
Jiang Yuan suddenly laughed loudly, and even the look he looked at Ling Xiao became playful, as if he was looking at a clown performing a funny show.
"Uh ha ha ha ha, boy, I asked you, a bastard from a low-level town like Huang Yuancheng still dares to scream in front of me, I will let you know the price of arrogance!" Jiang Yuan said sharply.
"Tsk, yes, if you lose, you have to give me 30,000 spirit stones. If you win... forget it, there is no such possibility." Ling Xiao said disdainfully.
"Oh, I only want your life! If you lose, you will kowtow three times in front of me and call me grandpa!"
"My dear grandson, I'll bear with you calling me grandpa first!" Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"you wanna die!"
Jiang Yuan clenched his fists, but was stopped by Jiang Qing on the side.
"Cousin, inner sect disciples are prohibited from fighting within the outer sect, please be careful of the prohibition." Jiang Qing whispered.
"Hmph, kid, I'll be waiting for you in three days, let's go!"
Jiang Yuan waved his hand, and all the disciples looked down upon him and left one after another.
Jiang Yuan clenched his hands tightly, and there was a hint of fierceness in his eyes. If it weren't for this sect rule, he would have killed the outer goalkeeper Ling Xiao on the spot.
But it just lets this country bumpkin live a few more days.
The disciples around him sighed and looked at Ling Xiao with sympathy.
"Junior brother Xiao, don't be impulsive. That Jiang Yuan is one of the top thirty figures in the inner sect, and his strength is in the middle stage of spiritual awareness. You can't beat him." Dongfang Xuan couldn't help but say.
Ling Xiao glanced at the disciple next to him. He was thin but fair.
Patting his shoulder, Ling Xiao smiled lightly, "Life and death are determined by destiny, wealth is in the sky, this senior brother, please don't be impatient."
After saying that, Ling Xiao turned around and returned to the cave.
Looking at the young man's leaving figure, Dongfang Xuan was a little silent. He found that this special recruit had a strong sense of mystery about him.
Ling Xiao had just returned to the cave, and before he had time to practice, a figure walked directly through the spiritual formation in his cave.
"You, Lu Huanxi, how did you get in!" Ling Xiao couldn't help but be shocked.
You must know that the disciple cave of Tiancang Divine Mansion has a spiritual array entrance guard, and you are not allowed to enter it without your own waist card!
"Nothing, I just told my mentor that we are Taoist couples and have a relationship of dual cultivation, so he gave me the mark of your cave."
Lu Huanxi was smiling, but Ling Xiao had a headache.
Wait, all the instructors know, wouldn’t that be...
Just as Ling Xiao guessed, the disciples from the outside world were just about to leave when they saw Lu Huanxi entering Ling Xiao's cave without any hindrance.
All the male disciples were heartbroken, and the relationship between the two naturally spread quickly through word of mouth.
"You are really going to cause me trouble." Ling Xiao couldn't help but feel a headache.
"Hey, blah blah, isn't this going to increase your popularity?" Lu Huanxi said with a smile.
"..."
Ling Xiao was speechless for a while.
"By the way, your duel with that Jiang Yuan..." Lu Huanxi hesitated before speaking.
"What? You also want to make a fortune?" Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"Indeed, my money is a bit tight lately," Lu Huanxi said.
"You help me manage the betting, and we'll split the money 70-30." Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"Hey, I was just waiting for your words!"
After saying that, Lu Huanxi left leisurely.
"It seems that after half a year of training, she has completely liberated her nature." Ling Xiao felt helpless for a while.
"That's good, isn't it?" Xie Shizi smiled.
"What a hair!"
…
Beacon Tower, the duel venue for disciples of Tiancang Divine Mansion.
In the early morning, the spectator seats on both sides were already full.
In three days, the deeds of Ling Xiao and Jiang Yuan had already caused a stir.
Many disciples laughed at Xiao Ling for not knowing how high the sky was and what was more, he had lost all of his wealth in this bet.
Ling Xiao's unilateral odds have reached 1:1000.
In front of the stands, Xiang Mingzhi and Si Qing also took their seats early.
"Teacher Xiang, who are you escorting?" Si Qing said jokingly.
"I? Of course I'm the one taking Xiao Ling, so I'll take it for granted." Xiang Mingzhi said with a smile.
Virtual crossing and spiritual consciousness!
Any fool knows who will win, and Ling Xiao once said that it was a bit arrogant to defeat Jiang Yuan with one move.
"Hey, I don't necessarily see it." Si Qing said.
At this time, Jiang Yuan entered the scene, causing a burst of cheers from the audience.
"Senior Brother Jiang, blow that kid's head off!"
"I've staked all my fortune, Senior Brother Jiang, charge!"
"Teach that boy a lesson and let him know how powerful our inner disciples are!"
Hearing the roar of resentment all around him, Xiang Ming couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.
How come this kid has attracted so much hatred so soon after he arrived?
…
At this time, Ling Xiao had just finished a night of practice, and his cultivation level had suddenly reached the third realm of virtual crossing!
After putting on simple plain clothes, Ling Xiao slowly walked out of the cave.
When he arrived at the beacon tower, the place was already crowded with people, and the roaring and roaring sounds were endless.
Seeing Ling Xiao appear, many people even cursed at Ling Xiao.
Most of them were male disciples, and they were Lu Huanxi's support group. After learning that Ling Xiao and Lu Huanxi were practicing dual cultivation, they all felt great resentment towards Ling Xiao!
"You are really annoying." Xie Shizi laughed.
"They are so jealous!"
Ling Xiao sneered and stood on the beacon tower.
Looking at Ling Xiao in front of him, Jiang Yuan smiled disdainfully.
"Boy, I thought you didn't dare to come." Jiang Yuan said sharply.
Ling Xiao didn't say anything, but curled his fingers at Jiang Yuan.
"Come on, three moves!"
"you wanna die!"
Jiang Yuan scolded angrily, his spiritual power suddenly exploded, his body jumped out and rushed towards Ling Xiao!
It moves like thunder and looks like running thunder!
A punch was thrown out, and there was a faint thunderous roar.
But Ling Xiao's figure gradually disappeared in front of his eyes.
"Can you go slower?"
A lazy voice sounded from behind. Jiang Yuan was furious. He turned around and pounced, but failed again.
Ling Xiao slowly stretched out two fingers on the side.
"Second move!"
The disciples present were extremely shocked. After seeing Ling Xiao's strange movements, their hearts could not help but beat wildly.
"Senior Brother Jiang...yes, what's wrong?"
"Senior Brother Jiang must be disdainful to fight with this kid, so he deliberately lets loose."
"Yes, that must be the case!"
Discussions at the scene continued. Jiang Yuan was extremely angry and pulled out his long knife. It was clearly a weapon for crossing the void!
Thunder light surrounds and roars.
"Thunder shock!"
With an angry rebuke, Jiang Yuan raised the long sword high, and his aura suddenly increased, and the extremely terrifying power of thunder and breath gathered on the long sword.
laugh!
The long knife tore through the air, making bursts of screams.
Ling Xiao stood there, not moving, but gently stretched out his right hand.
He actually wanted to use his right hand to catch Jiang Yuan's full blow!
"Is he crazy!"
"This kid's right hand is useless!"
"I think he's out of his mind!"
bump!
There was a sharp sound, and the scene where everyone expected Ling Xiao's right hand to be bloody and bloody did not appear.
The lightning dissipated, and the long knife just stayed in mid-air.
Ling Xiao's eyes were as cold as stars, and his right hand was holding the blade tightly. No matter how hard Jiang Yuan tried, he couldn't move it at all!
"That's it?"
The young man raised his eyes, his eyes filled with indifference.
Jiang Yuan was furious, but he wanted to draw the knife, but found that the long knife was like a pair of iron pincers, and he could not get away no matter what!
"Senior Brother Jiang, it's time to pay!"
bump!
With a soft sound, the long knife in Jiang Yuan's hand shattered!
The whole audience exclaimed.
Ling Xiao's figure flashed and he punched out.
It hit Jiang Yuan directly in the abdomen.
puff!
Jiang Yuan spat out a mouthful of blood and looked at Ling Xiao in disbelief.
His body was hunched and he collapsed directly to the ground.
The scene was in an uproar!
"You, what on earth are you..." Jiang Yuan's face was full of horror.
"Me, I'm just an ordinary specially recruited disciple."
Ling Xiao sneered, and then kicked Jiang Yuan up.
boom!
There was a loud noise, and Jiang Yuan's knees fell directly in front of Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao raised his right foot and stepped on his shoulder.
Then he stepped hard.
boom!
There was another loud noise, and Jiang Yuan gave Ling Xiao a solid knock.
Blood flowed horizontally, Jiang Yuan was furious and trembling all over, but his spiritual power seemed to be restrained and he could not make any further progress!
bump!
Another kick, and Jiang Yuan hit the ground hard again.
This time, he felt dizzy.
Before he could think about it, Ling Xiao kicked him again, and this time, even a hole was made in the ground.
Jiang Yuan fainted on the spot.
"Tsk, that's a tough move. We can only wait until he wakes up before asking for money."
Ling Xiao couldn't help feeling regretful, and then left the scene indifferently amid the scolding and accusations from all the disciples.
"This disciple of yours is a thorn in the side." Si Qing said with a smile.
"Heh, who says it's not?"
Xiang Mingzhi touched his forehead lightly, with a look of helplessness on his face.
Ling Xiao also became the public enemy of all disciples at this moment!
Jiang Qing was stunned in the stands with trembling hands and said nothing.
