Ch.16 Part 1 – Qingfeng Town (I)
Chu Tianfeng froze, his face turned from white to red, and then gradually turned white again. He slowly lowered his head. The young man took out the new storage space given by his sect’s elder, counted thirty sixth-grade spirit stones, and handed them to ng Qi: “Fifteen pills, a total of thirty spirit stones.”
The young man stood tall with his spine straight. His long eyelashes hung down, and he tightly squeezed his thin lips. On the palm of his hand, thirty spirit stones were neatly stacked. Beautifully glittering under the sunlight.
Instead, ng Qi was the one who was stunned. She thought that Chu Tianfeng would turn around and go away in anger. She really didn’t have the intention to take his money again after the last paynt. After all, it was rely first-realm Qingfeng pills. For dical cultivators such as Xiang Linmo and Xue Jinwen, the high price was justified because of the pill’s extraordinary refining thod. They were willing to buy it at the price of two sixth-grade spirit stones or even higher because they wanted to research its refining thod.
Of course, if they can really deduce the refining thod by rely researching the pill, ng Qi would sincerely admire them. That was really not an easy task. At that ti, she and her master spent nearly half a year, experinting with thousands of arrays, before finally succeeded. This refining thod couldn’t be valued by a matter of several sixth-grade spirit stones. A dical sect would be willing to use everything they had to exchange for this secret.
Both Xiang Linmo and Xue Jinwen were dical cultivators. Of course, they understood this fact. So they didn’t even inquire about the refinent thod and just bought the pills to conduct their own research. Even so, they only bought less than five pills. For this reason, Xiang Linmo thought nothing of spending several sixth-grade spirit stones to buy the pill. He probably also knew that if this pill really went into the auction floor, there would be many sects who were willing to buy it at a much higher price. If he went to participate in the auction, he wasn’t their opponent at all.
But it was different for Chu Tianfeng. For him, the pills were purely used for detoxification. Even if the effect was much better than the ordinary first realm Qingfeng pill, it still wasn’t so good that he had to pay thousands of tis the regular price to buy it.
ng Qi initially thought that the proud Young Master Chu would be furious at her words and turned away in disdain. She already had a way to make money now and didn’t need to pluck every feather from Chu Tianfeng’s body. She said such words, simply wanted to anger Chu Tianfeng, lest he always appeared in front of her. After all, his action might bring Lu Qingran’s displeasure towards ng Qi, and at that ti, heaven might punish her for the sake of its favored daughter.
Moreover, was there anything wrong with this Young Master Chu?
In ng Qi’s previous life, she saved him without charging anything, and he acted as if he didn’t know about this grace at all. Later, she was imprisoned for three months. Let alone speaking for her defense or trying to release her out, Chu Tianfeng didn’t even spare a glance at her. Otherwise, ng Qi actually wished him to at least give her so dicine formulas or other things so as not to waste that three months in vain.
This ti she extorted so many spirit stones, charging him a heavily marked-up price. Still, the other party persistently glued himself to her instead and refused to get away at any expense.
How annoying!
ng Qi recalled the words a certain older sister she t in her previous life once said: ‘People, especially n, were all cheap, and never knew to cherish anything they easily get without any effort!’
After thinking for a while, ng Qi reached out and took the spirit stones. She stared at Chu Tianfeng without blinking, hoping that the young man would be furious and turn away. Young Master Chu lowered his gaze, standing obediently. His expression was unchanged, not looking a little bit unhappy.
ng Qi: “…”
She pondered a bit and then said with an earnest tone: “From now, we are even. I am rich in money but poor in luck and simply want to concentrate on my own cultivation. So, I don’t want to bear too much karmic relationship. From now on, even if we et on the road, let’s just nod slightly and go on our way… Of course, Young Master Chu can also ignore completely, which I am most appreciating.”
“You…” Chu Tianfeng suddenly raised his eyes at ng Qi.
“Also.” ng Qi added: “You are forbidden to tell others about the little white tiger!”
“If nothing else, I will say goodbye first.”
ng Qi walked out of the sect’s gate without looking back. Because of the urgent need to save Xiao Qi, she was almost getting entangled with this Chu Tianfeng. What was a soul vow? After making it, the person couldn’t break the words they said during the vow. And Chu Tianfeng vowed to never disobey ng Qi’s order. So, when she just now said to treat each other as strangers, this also counted as an order. If Chu Tianfeng couldn’t do it, just wait for heaven’s retribution.
Fentian Palace’s Nascent Soul elder was currently here, and there was also Chu Tianfeng, their future palace master. With their help, the coming crisis would certainly not threaten the safety of Qingfeng Valley’s cultivators, or even the ordinary people living in Qingfeng Town at the foot of the mountain.
When ng Qi arrived in Qingfeng Town, many people were still bustling with activities, no different from the peaceful ti. There were not many people in Qingfeng Town since it was a very small town. After all, Qingfeng Valley was also a minor sect and wasn’t part of central authorities in the Eastern Realm. The people living in the town were ordinary people who couldn’t cultivate. As soon as they saw ng Qi, they imdiately gathered around and greeted her.
“Little Doctor ng is here!”
“Good afternoon, Little Doctor ng.”
“Little Doctor ng, you co at the right ti. The oranges in my orchard have just ripened this year’s first fruits. The frost on it hasn’t been wiped yet. Take back so and taste it.”
“My honey polo this year is also sweet and juicy. They are girls’ favorite! You should also take so.”
“Sister ng, good afternoon!”
