C21 (1/2)

My voice was deep and rich and full of magnetism.

However, this voice was like a clap of thunder in the old man's ears. I saw all the muscles in his body contract and the hairs on his body explode.

At this moment, the old man didn't have the slightest appearance of a master, and his unfathomable, unfathomable appearance had long since disappeared.

It was obvious that his cultivation base was at the upper level of the Earth Realm. At a glance, it was clear that he was using medicinal pills to store his Fa Li. He could not even compare to Fu Dao's Fa Li. Even I can handle it easily.

In the corner, the four of them stopped. A chill ran through their bodies as they didn't dare make a sound.

The old man tilted his head slightly and glanced at me. He asked nervously, ”May I know your name, friend?”

I taunted, ”What? You want to take revenge later?”

The old man said anxiously: ”I dare not.” I just want to know your name and see how you have offended me. ”

”Shen Tianyi.” I gave my name.

The old man came to a realization, ”Oh, so it's fellow Daoist Shen. It's been a long time since I've seen you! I was fortunate enough to hear that you fought against Fu Dao. It's just that I wonder what Dao Friend Shen means by this, or perhaps there is some misunderstanding between us? ”

Long respect my ass! I secretly spat out in my heart as I said, ”It's not a misunderstanding. I'm just a little bit anxious to borrow some money from Fellow Taoist recently.”

The child was a bit scared, but the two teenagers did not say anything. The old man said, ”Fellow Taoist, you are not being kind this way. Aren't you afraid of receiving punishment for breaking the rules of the Bright Moon Merchant Guild? If you leave now, I will pretend that nothing happened and not pursue this matter. ”

”If you don't want to pursue the matter, then I will.” I coldly laughed. ”My honored guests, you've forgotten too much. Why don't you remember me?”

At that time, the old man had closed his eyes and acted as if he was recuperating, but he didn't know it. The two teenagers brought me all the way here as a law enforcement team member, but I had a few memories of them. The child I talked to was the most impressed.

When I said this, I saw that his brows were tightly knitted, as if he didn't know what was going on. His small face was scrunched up in distress. After a moment, he slapped his head in realization.

”So it's you, that poor bastard that forced the talisman onto me.”

As soon as he said that, the child regretted it. Because the poor guy he was talking about was in control of their safety right now.

The old man fiercely glared at the child, and then awkwardly said, ”Children's words are always spoken without fear, children's words are always spoken without shame. Dao Friend Shen, don't take it to heart. ”

Wuji your head! I cursed silently before saying with a dark expression, ”I really hate people who try to deceive me – as well as my money. What do you think we should do next? To pay or to pay? ”

The old man slowly spoke with a bitter taste in his mouth.

It was a pity that a wandering cultivator like Bai Zhen had brought along his entire family to raise three kids. Every day, he would live like a lonely ghost, wandering aimlessly everywhere. In addition, the four of them, young and old, couldn't even survive. Bai Pu also knew that if he did not do this well, it would easily lead to public anger and disaster. However, he was at his wit's end and had to resort to such a deceitful method to defraud money.

I sighed. Poverty is not a sin. It just brings too much helplessness to the kind.

Bai Pu continued to say: ”I've also thought about it, these kids' talents are all pretty good. This scam bought them some martial skills and elixirs to help them build up their foundation and improve their cultivation.” If they were lucky enough to survive the wind and fire tribulation and be promoted to the Earth Realm in the future, it would be their good fortune. However, I really can't afford to return the money to you right now. ”

As I looked at the four of them, I couldn't bear to do so. In the end, he shook his head and said, ”Forget it, it's not much money. There's no need to pay it back.”

F * ck, he still felt a pang in his heart even after finishing his sentence.

Bai Zhen was very touched, even the three kids all revealed a smile of wisdom.

”If the four of you have nowhere else to go, you can temporarily stay at my place. I still have two brothers. Although they are not very rich, they at least have a roof over their heads. ” I continued speaking as I guided the four of them to the Shrine of Immortals.

”No need to thank me for this great favor.” Bai Shi seemed to have thought about it and gritted his teeth. He then lowered his voice and said, ”If Fellow Daoist doesn't mind, this old man can give you a secret technique.”

I waved my hand with a carefree expression on my face.

I'm not a saint. I am poor, too. It's just that I don't think that the four of them are so poor that they can give me anything of value. It's not that I look down on the white and simple, it's human nature.

Seeing that I did not accept his gift, he said: ”Although this old man has some weak skills, it's hard to see through his unorthodox techniques.” However, if Fellow Bai does not accept, my family will be too embarrassed to go and bother you. ”

This was a bit serious.

Bai Zhen carefully took out a yellowish booklet from his clothes and passed it to me as if it was a precious treasure. ”Fellow cultivator, do you know why this is the first time I've seen you unable to see the depth of my cultivation?”

I took the booklet and kept it in my ring. I shook my head. ”This is the first time that I've seen you in person. I can only feel that you have the potential to be a Heaven Realm cultivator, and your cultivation base is unfathomably deep.”

”That's right!” It was the spiritual pressure of a low-level Heavenly Realm expert! Bai Shi slowly said, ”This secret technique can raise a person's aura by an entire realm.

”

My eyes widened. It raised one's aura by a whole realm. Although his strength didn't increase, his aura of spiritual pressure only increased. But that was f * cking enough — it was necessary to pretend to be Billy, to cheat.

I took a deep breath and asked, ”What is the name of this secret skill?”

Bai Pun looked at me and slowly spat out four words.

”The aura of a tyrant.”

Heavenly Cloud Treasure Tower's third floor.

Not everyone had the qualifications to climb the stairs to the third floor. Just the entrance fee of 10,000 was enough to shut out most of the rogue cultivators. Moreover, the requirement of two hundred thousand gold coins or resources for anyone entering the competition was to make 90% of the rogue cultivators stop at this point.

There were no more than a hundred people in the brightly lit building. Compared to the first and second floors, which were filled with people and bustling with activity, it was extremely spacious.

It was also true that most rogue cultivators had no money or influence, so they were poor to the point of ringing the bell. It was not uncommon for people to fall into poverty like the four of them.

As I walked in, I glanced at them and thought to myself, What a pity.

The auctions in novels usually have maids who practice bewitching arts, unknowingly using bewitching arts to disrupt the minds of the guests, making them easily impulsive and shouting out a high price — — Why haven't we met them?
