Section 456 Robbery Is Robbery
When the shopkeeper heard the little girl's words, he almost died from anger on the spot! He cursed in his heart, 'So this damn girl is from Ice Spirit City! But even if she came to collect taxes, she wouldn't be like you. Isn't this just robbery? Isn't that the same as bandits?
After all, in the shopkeeper's eyes, everyone was a righteous person who cared about etiquette and face. No matter how many conflicts there were, at least they should be able to get along on the surface. So even if the Xuantian Dao Sect and the other sects wanted to rebel, they wouldn't do it openly. Instead, they would do it secretly. There was no way they would be so brazen as to rob.
Furthermore, although he owed some taxes, that amount wasn't even enough to buy any of the three items, not to mention taking away all four items! The value of these items was probably equivalent to nearly ten thousand years of taxes! Who would do that?
So the shopkeeper hurriedly stopped the little girl and angrily said, "Senior, although I don't know your relationship with Ice Spirit City, but no matter what, you are going too far!"
"How is it too far?" The little girl immediately said disdainfully, "Paying taxes when you owe taxes is a matter of course!"
"Even if that's the case, it shouldn't be this much, right?" The shopkeeper said angrily, "This is enough to pay ten thousand years of taxes!"
"Don't you know that this is called a late fee?" The little girl said seriously.
"What late fee?" The shopkeeper asked with a puzzled expression.
"It's also the meaning of interest!" The little girl explained, "You are late for so many days of taxes. Just the interest alone is delaying us. Don't tell me that you shouldn't bear this loss? "
"Interest?" The shopkeeper didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Great aunt, we are only late for three days of taxes. Even the most expensive rolling donkey with compound interest wouldn't be this much, right?"
"The most expensive rolling donkey with compound interest!" The little girl said indifferently, "It's just that the calculation time is a bit shorter!"
"Eh? Isn't the interest calculated every three days? Why is it short? "The shopkeeper asked with a puzzled expression.
"You calculate every three days, I calculate every three breaths!" The little girl giggled, "So it's a bit more, hahaha!"
When the shopkeeper heard this, his face turned green! If the interest was calculated every three breaths, then the debt would turn into an astronomical figure in two hours. Even the most black-hearted loan shark would not be able to calculate it this way. Clearly, the little girl was trying to blackmail him!
Understanding this, the shopkeeper was so angry that he laughed. He then sneered and said, "Good, good, good. You really know how to do business!"
"Of course!" The little girl raised her chin and said disdainfully, "Why? Do you have a problem with that? "
"Haha!" Of course, the shopkeeper didn't dare to have a direct conflict with the unfathomable little girl, so he hurriedly laughed and said, "I'm just a small shopkeeper, so I naturally don't dare to have any opinions. However, the person in charge here might have a problem with it! " As he spoke, the shopkeeper raised his hand and gently flicked out a green light, which flew towards the back. It was obvious that he was notifying the expert who was in charge of this place to come over.
"Hehe!" The little girl did not mind. Instead, she chuckled and said, "Alright, I want to see who dares to have an opinion about me!"
The little girl had come to look for trouble, so she naturally wasn't afraid of trouble.
Not long after, a green figure flew over and stopped in the room. It was the Body Integration expert sent by the Xuantian Dao Sect, Dongguo Lan. After being rejected by Shui Jing and the Great Shadow, he had been inwardly furious. Thus, he had followed the sect's orders and ordered the shopkeeper to resist paying taxes and cause trouble, while he hid himself in the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion to observe the situation.
However, he had suddenly received a flying sword message from the shopkeeper, saying that someone was causing trouble and that he couldn't handle it! That was why Dongguo Lan had personally rushed over.
After arriving, Dongguo Lan first sized up the little girl and was immediately stunned by her terrifying cultivation base. However, he didn't dare to show it on the surface. He only asked the shopkeeper, "What happened?"
"Senior, you pretended to be buying things, but in the end, you took four of our things in one go. Then you said that you were here to collect taxes on behalf of Ice Spirit City! Everything was taken for free! "said the shopkeeper gloomily.
"Cough, cough!" Dongguo Lan was quite angry when he heard that. However, his eyes were as sharp as torches, and he had long since seen that the little girl wasn't someone to be trifled with. How could he possibly provoke such a powerful cultivator for a few things? That was simply courting death.
In any case, even if he couldn't handle her, there were still the sect's experts. There was no need for him to suffer such a loss. Thus, Dongguo Lan put on an act and said, "Fellow Daoist, may I ask if what the shopkeeper said is true?"
"It's all true!" said the little girl with a smile that wasn't a smile. "What do you want?"
How could Dongguo Lan dare to say no? He immediately said, "My talent is shallow, so I naturally wouldn't dare to do anything to you. However, this matter isn't over yet. The Xuantian Dao Sect will naturally send people to settle this matter with you! "After saying that, he pulled the shopkeeper to the side and made way for the little girl.
When the little girl saw that, she smiled complacently and said, "Alright! Then I'll wait for you to settle accounts with me! "After saying that, she happily skipped away. It would be strange if she wasn't happy that she had obtained so many good things for free!
The shopkeeper waited for the little girl to leave before anxiously saying, "Uncle-master, the things that girl took away were no small matter. That included the Thunder Pearl! This time, we've suffered a disastrous loss! "
"What? Why did you give the Thunder Pearl to her? "Dongguo Lan was startled.
The shopkeeper could only bitterly smile and explain, "Uncle-master, at first I thought she was a senior expert who bought things. That was why I took out the good things and hoped to make a profit! But who would have thought that she was actually a bandit who blatantly robbed people? "
"Ah!" Dongguo Lan helplessly sighed and bitterly smiled. "Now that things have reached this point, it's too late to say anything. That person might look like a child, but in truth, she's a peak expert. Just by standing there, she gave me a pressure like Mount Tai. Such a powerful aura is something that even the sect master can't compare to! It can be seen that she's at least at the great circle of the Grand Ascension realm! Such a person isn't someone we can provoke. It's best to let the sect worry about this matter! "
"That's the only way!" the shopkeeper said helplessly.
After that, the two of them left with a frown on their faces. The shopkeeper went to busy himself with his business, while Dongguo Lan hurriedly sent a flying sword message to the sect, reporting everything that had happened here in detail.
While the ice and water spirits were wantonly robbing the Thousand Treasures Pavilion, the ice and fire twin lotus sisters had also arrived at the Brocade Palace, a shop set up by the Four Stars Dao Sect.
Unlike the little girl, the twin sisters of ice and fire had a deep grudge against the Four Stars Dao Sect. The two of them had been in the Dao Sect of Four Stars for hundreds of thousands of years and had worked tirelessly to create a beautiful scenery filled with immortal qi for the Dao Sect of Four Stars. They had also helped the Dao Sect of Four Stars cultivate large amounts of high-grade spirit herbs and assisted all the cultivators at the Body Integration stage and above in their cultivation.
These two sisters' contributions to the Dao Sect of Four Stars could be said to be unprecedented. Even the previous sect masters of the Dao Sect of Four Stars were far inferior to them.
However, these two great contributors had ended up being betrayed in the end. Moreover, the target of the betrayal was Song Zhong, but in reality, it was the divine beast from the Immortal World, the Black Tortoise, Ao Qing!
After toiling for hundreds of thousands of years for others, they had to be eaten by others in the end. Who would be able to stand this?
After all, the twin sisters of ice and fire were divine creatures of the Immortal World and had cultivated bitterly for so many years. Before they had met Song Zhong, their intelligence had more or less opened up on its own and they naturally remembered this incident clearly. Now that they had been enlightened by Song Zhong, their intelligence had long been fully opened and they understood love and hate. Naturally, they hated the Dao Sect of Four Stars who had betrayed them to the core. If not for Song Zhong stopping them in the past, they would have attacked the Dao Sect of Four Stars long ago to seek justice!
Although the twin sisters of ice and fire had not been enlightened for long, they were still spiritual creatures of the Immortal World and had cultivated for so many years. Therefore, after being enlightened, their strength had increased by leaps and bounds. Now, in terms of combat strength, each of them was no less inferior to the ice and water spirits.
This was because although the ice and water spirits had rich magic power, they were still mortal creatures. On the other hand, the twin sisters of ice and fire had the purest immortal qi because of their innate talent and were almost exactly the same as regular immortals. In addition to Ling Xiaozi's teachings, the twin sisters' combat strength was now far above that of Mahayana stage cultivators. Even without pseudo-immortal weapons, they could completely contend against two or three tribulations of itinerant immortals.
In other words, they were both Mahayana stage experts with the strength of itinerant immortals. In this way, they could bully mortals to a certain extent without having to worry about suffering a thousand-year heavenly tribulation. They were much stronger than itinerant immortals.
After arriving at Jinxiu Palace, old and new hatred intertwined, causing the twin sisters of ice and fire to be filled with murderous intent and their eyes to turn red.
"Call out the person in charge!" the sisters said angrily.
Although the two sisters were angry, they were powerful and could restrain their magic power very well, so ordinary people could not see their strength.
Therefore, the weak but bad-tempered person in charge of Jinxiu Palace was met with a tragedy. Coming from a large sect, she was arrogant to begin with. In addition, there were experts here, so she was not afraid of people looking for trouble. She sneered and said, "Where did these two little bitches come from? Don't you know where this place is? How dare you behave so atrociously? "
When the twin sisters of ice and fire heard this, they were instantly enraged. They did not waste any words and directly raised their hands. In the next moment, the arrogant woman felt a mountain-like pressure smash down on her body, causing her to kneel on the ground with a plop. Then, there was a series of crisp slapping sounds. Following that, her cheeks swelled up high, making her look like a pig's head! (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters.
