"Tiger Wing Gang?"
Jiang Liang look back at Shi Jing again, finally rembering that this person is a newcor. It wasn’t surprising that he have not heard of the Tiger Wing Gang.
However, pressed for ti, he didn’t explain it in great detail and rely said.
"The Tiger Wing Gang rules this small region. We are not the only village in the area, actually, there are several. The Tiger Wing Gang is obviously on the top, often demanding part of our supplies as ’protection fees’."
Instant, Shi Jing lit up unknowingly. How could he not understand the aning of this.
"Is it protection against wild beasts?"
Jiang Liang nodded," That’s right."
"Brother Jing, since you are new here, I advise you to stay inside your house. If the Tiger Wing Gang see you and have any ill thoughts, I’m afraid I can’t protect you," He sincerely warned Shi Jing.
Then, through the sa entrance, he left toward another house to repeat the sa warning.
After Liang Jiang left, Shi Jing ’eye’ float toward the entrance of the shabby village, instantly spotting a group of people loitering.
These people wore thick tiger-hide clothes with wings engraving on it. At a glance, half of their body is exposed. Most of them carried sharp blade, or swords, and so even carry steel mace.
Their appearance and scarred face startled and frightened the village chief, Du Bang Xi. This elder man had a ragged robe while hunching over.
As he stamred to speak, his aged wrinkles shifted ever so slightly.
"Immortal Cheng, our village harvest this ti around is bare and none, I hope you can give us another season to prepare for another harvest."
Cheng San Di, the Gang Leader, clearly wasn’t convinced as he coldly snorted.
"Another season? What do you think I am? If I let you put it on tab for another season, wouldn’t everyone else want to start putting it on tabs?!"
Shi Jing glanced at this Cheng Dan Di figure, instantly seeing through his cultivation.
’Early Qi-Refinent cultivator...’
Why is a Qi-Refinent cultivator acting as a gang leader, extorting these small villages instead of focusing on their cultivation?
Due to Shi Jing’s ghostly concealnt, Cheng San Di hasn’t realized that he is being watched by a Foundation Establishnt expert.
At this mont, Cheng San Di was filled with ridicule as his spiritual sense swept past Du Bang Xi and toward the small crowd of villagers behind him.
’A bunch of mortals, no one worth ntioning!’
He routinely examined the village before deciding to act openly. This is his way of handling matters.
Cheng Dan Di was once a mortal, just like these people, who happened to chanced upon a Foundation Establishnt inheritance which allowed him to step on the path of cultivation.
Unfortunately, his talent is poor, not to ntion the lack of resources, he remained stuck at the Early of Qi-Refinent despite years of bitter cultivation.
It can even be that he has reached his bottleneck.
In the end, he found it easier to beco a gang leader, ruling over mortals and living a carefree life.
In actuality, a lot of cultivators are like this. Often, they encounter a bottleneck and give up, choosing to indulge the rest of their lives living a worry free life.
Isn’t that the sa on modern day earth? In pursuit of sothing great, we give up at the slightest inconvenience.
Shi Jing thought about it and believed this must be the reason. At the sa ti, he can’t help but sighed.
"This is sign of having a weak will. If the will is weak, how can the heart be strong? When the heart is not strong, then the path cannot be walked!"
His words remained a low whisper to himself. However, a slight noise below his feet caused him to look down.
"Uncle Jing, did you say sothing?"
Seeing this, Shi Jing lips curled into a slight smile as he replied," Nothing. Uncle will go see what is going on at the entrance."
"Do not co out until I co back, understand?" Shi Jing said, his words was stern and heavy.
Xiao Yu only t Shi Jing for a couple of days, but he had a feeling that this uncle was often carefree and detached.
This is the first ti he had heard Uncle Jing being this serious. So, he nodded fervently and promised.
"Xiao Yu won’t co out until you co back!"
"Good child."
Shi Jing left and jot down the street.
The village being small, so not much is wasted before he found himself facing the crowd of people.
His appearance didn’t attract any attention. Actually, several other older people also began gathering at the entrance of the village.
The mont their gaze landed on Cheng Dan Di, an expression of fear and dread appear on their face.
Perhaps among everyone present, only Shi Jing still wore a composed and detached expression, as though none of the conflict here is within his consideration.
At this mont, Cheng Dan Di, who had spread his spiritual sense sensed Shi Jing’s appearance.
What caught his attention wasn’t Shi Jing’s cultivation, because to Cheng Dan Di, Shi Jing was just an ordinary mortal.
However, what did catch his attention is Shi Jing’s strange indifferent deanor.
Seeing this mortal attitude, he frowned. Inwardly, his heart boiled in rage.
’How dare a mortal act haughty in front of ?!’
Instantly, his voice erupted in a fit of rage.
"You!" He shouted, pointing his finger at Shi Jing direction.
Quickly, everyone pointed themselves, before realizing that Cheng Dan Di was not referring to them, but rather, a certain individual among them.
Shi Jing.
Du Bang Xi, the village chief, frowned upon seeing Shi Jing being singled out.
’Why is this person pointing at him?’
Shi Jing was a newcor, how hasn’t even stayed a week in the Greedmud village, so it wasn’t strange that Du Bang Xi is not aware of Shi Jing’s status or background.
But, in this area, how many newcors co and go each day? Many!
Thus, he didn’t understand why Shi Jing is singled out among everyone here.
However, upon examining Shi Jing’s expression and attitude, he instantly grasped the truth.
’This... person attitude is too outstanding.’ He sighed.
"?" Shi Jing replied, pointing at himself.
Inwardly, he was amused by Cheng Dan Di behavior, but outwardly, his face barely changed.
