"Do you think I'm a fool?"
Wu Ming walked on the road, holding the jade slip of the Observing Eye in his arms, thinking silently in his heart.
"If it weren't for the fact that this Spirit Eye technique is compatible with the rules of the world and can fully unleash the power of my Third Eye, I wouldn't have bought this!"
Of course, he could not say this out loud. He would just let the other party think that he was a fool.
In the end, it was hard to say who would be the one taking advantage of the situation.
With this thought in mind, Wu Ming arrived at a luxurious area in the eastern part of the city.
The Dongfang family!
This family was one of the most powerful families in Boulder City. They were famous for using wolf-type illusionary spirits. The head elder of the family owned a Commander-level Nether Wolf and was one of the top powerhouses in Boulder City. Therefore, the Dongfang family had a firm hold on the decision-making power of Boulder City.
The Dongfang family's luxurious house occupied a large area. There were two huge Nether Wolf statues at the entrance. They looked ferocious and ferocious.
Of course, as the shame of the family, Dongfang Shuoming did not have the right to enter through the front door. He could only sneak in through the back door like a thief.
When he went out, it was dark. But now, it was the morning light. The sun rose from the east, and smoke rose in twos and threes. Some hardworking family disciples and servants got up early in the morning to train their strength and cultivate the phantom.
There was a huge drill ground in the backyard of the Dongfang family.
There were also cultivation rooms, feeding rooms, combat rooms, and so on, all for the cultivation and growth of new spirit controllers.
As Wu Ming walked past the drill ground, he saw some young spirit controllers holding their newly contracted spirits and showing off to each other. Their eyes were full of pride.
He did not want to cause trouble, so he walked away quietly.
"Wait … Isn't that Dongfang Shuoming?"
He did not provoke others, but others provoked him. A black shadow flashed in front of him, and a few people blocked his way.
The leader wore a mocking expression. At his feet was an Iron-clawed Wolf. It had bones of steel, sharp claws, and sharp teeth.
Wu Ming recognized the young man. He was a servant of the Dongfang family, and his name was Luo Geng. His father was an old servant of Dongfang Ba's father, and he had served the family for many years. Even if he did not have any meritorious service, he had worked hard. This time, he had been accepted into the family's school, and he had successfully become a Spirit Controller. He had even contracted an elite Iron-clawed Wolf!
Compared to relatives who were separated by an unknown distance, it was natural that the child of a private servant who he had seen growing up was more trustworthy.
At this time, Luo Geng's face was full of mockery. "Yo yo … Isn't this Young Master Dongfang? I heard that you've also become a Spirit Controller. Why don't you summon your Phantom and let us have a look? "
His face was eccentric and full of mockery, as if he wanted to show that he was superior.
"Luo Geng … I know you were born as a servant and have always felt inferior, so you want to step on me, a dishonorable illegitimate child from an unorthodox family, in order to satisfy your meaningless vanity?"
Wu Ming calmly replied, "But I advise you not to do this. No matter how poor the master is, he is still the master. No matter what, I am still a member of the Dong Fang Family … Now that I am standing here, do you dare to release the Iron Claw Wolves to kill me? Hmm? "
At the end of his speech, his voice and expression were fierce, and his eyes were sharp. He took a step forward.
"I … I …"
Luo Geng kept retreating. Of course, he did not dare! If Dongfang Ba was here, he would not be afraid. But now, he was entangled with the children of the same group of servants. If things got out of hand, he would be accused of bullying his master as a servant!
The bigger the family, the more they had to pay attention to the hierarchy.
No matter how much Dongfang Ba bullied Dongfang Shuoming, it was just a small matter. But he, a mere servant, dared to climb all over him. If he dared to bully Dongfang Shuoming today, would he dare to bully the master's family in the future? Therefore, the rules could not be broken, and this wind could not be allowed to grow!
Therefore, the servants of these big families all had a red line. Once they crossed it, they would be beaten to death without any hesitation.
He was even more surprised. "Strange … This illegitimate child has always been a coward. Why is he so stubborn today?"
"What? You don't dare? If you don't dare, then get out of the way! A good dog doesn't block the way! "
Wu Ming strode forward with his head held high, frowning coldly.
Even though these young men were accompanied by Iron Claw Wolves and Berserk Wolves, none of them dared to order them to move forward. For a moment, they were intimidated by Wu Ming and made way for him.
"Brother Luo Geng, what should we do?"
Seeing Wu Ming's back disappear, one of the servants asked unwillingly.
"I'll let him go today!"
Luo Geng snorted coldly. "Just because he's the master's family, he thinks he's so great? In the future, I'll ask Young Master Ba to come with me. Let's see what he has to say! "
Bullying a master as a servant was a serious crime. However, Dongfang Ba was the master of the Dongfang Family. It was only right and proper for him to bully a branch family. No one could say anything about it.
The elders should be the masters! If the elders bully you, it's teaching you! Teaching you face to face! The juniors should listen obediently!
If it was Dongfang Ba, it would not be a problem as long as he was not killed.
"Dongfang Shuoming! You're just an illegitimate child. How dare you humiliate me like this! "
Luo Geng looked in the direction where Wu Ming had left. A cold light flashed in his eyes. "I'll make you pay in the future!"
…
"That was close!"
Wu Ming heaved a sigh of relief after he returned to his own courtyard and closed the door.
The reason why he could be so arrogant and domineering today was because of the fear in the hearts of those servants.
It was because they had grown up and matured that he dared to take such a risk.
Otherwise, if he were to encounter a hothead who really beat him up, the gains would not make up for the losses. Although the family law would definitely not forgive the person who beat him up, his reputation would be completely ruined.
However, Luo Geng and the others had already become Spirit Masters. They had a bright future ahead of them. The more they thought, the more hesitant they would be at the crucial moment.
It turned out that he had made the right bet!
"It's just one risk. It doesn't mean I can take risks every time …"
Wu Ming sighed. "The most important thing is to improve my strength. There's also the family competition in a month … I have to say, the Dongfang family is indeed a big tree. If I want to continue relying on them, I can't come in last. Otherwise, I'll be kicked out of the family, and I'll lose everything …"
He recalled Dongfang Shuoming's background. It was full of twists and turns.
Dongfang Shuoming's father was originally a direct descendant of the Dongfang family. However, he was young and impetuous. He was dissatisfied with the marriage arranged by the family and left in anger, claiming that he wanted to sever ties with them.
A few years later, he returned with a baby. That was Dongfang Shuoming. As for the baby's mother, he kept his mouth shut and did not mention anything.
After a few years, Dongfang Shuoming's father left again. It was said that he went to look for his mother, but he disappeared without a trace. There was no news of him for more than ten years, and the Dongfang family thought that he was dead.
Although Dongfang Shuoming had a few properties left by his father, he was still a child. Naturally, he was divided among his relatives.
Since he was a member of the same family, they could not be too ugly. Thus, they reluctantly raised him. However, the treatment he received was obvious. Even a servant dared to bully him.
"All in all, this Dongfang Shuoming's life has been a tragedy since he was a child …"
Wu Ming smiled bitterly and went to the yard to take a look.
The courtyard was dilapidated. Wind was leaking on all sides, and it was on the verge of collapse. The grain jars were almost empty.
"An ordinary young master of the Dongfang family receives a monthly allowance of a hundred catties of pearl rice, fifteen catties of meat, some fruits and vegetables, a hundred spirit coins, and a spirit controller. But now, this monthly allowance has clearly been embezzled … The fickleness of human nature is nothing more than this … If this courtyard hadn't been left by my father, it would have been taken away …"
Wu Ming sighed. "It's no wonder that Dongfang Shuoming wants to run away …"
He immediately found some dry rations and barely managed to fill his stomach. Fortunately, the gray wolf had already eaten its fill. Otherwise, Wu Ming really didn't know where to find the terrifying appetite of several kilograms of meat a day.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Wu Ming sat cross-legged on his bed. "Although there are many treasures in the future in my memories, only those with strength can obtain them. If I go now, I'll just be cannon fodder … It's better to increase my strength first …"
Although he knew many things would happen in the future, if he wanted to benefit from both sides and reap the benefits, he would need to have a strong Fighter Soldier.
Otherwise, a young gray wolf would not be able to go far from Megarock City before it would be killed by all kinds of unpredictable dangers!
"Observant Eye!"
At this moment, Wu Ming took out the jade scroll of the combat technique.
This jade scroll was gray and unremarkable. It was covered in a layer of dust. It was obviously a classic example of a combat technique that had been left on the shelf for a long time.
"Although the effect seems a little weak, I'm not picky. As long as I can use it with the Third Eye, that's enough …"
With this in mind, Wu Ming put the jade slip on his forehead, and his powerful mental power surged out, invading the inside of the jade slip layer by layer like spinning silk from a cocoon.
"This jade scroll only contains a feeling or Dao Rhyme … Unless one is really talented, it's very difficult to obtain the combat technique's ability from a vague feeling."
Wu Ming's mental strength entered the jade scroll and sighed.
Of course, this was an extremely difficult hurdle for all spirit controllers, but it was nothing to him.
Even if the primordial spirit of an Earth Immortal could not affect the outside world on a large scale, how terrifying would it be if it could be purified into mental strength?
With a strong foundation and powerful mental strength, it was naturally a piece of cake for him to crack the jade scroll.
Moreover, he was an expert in the path of immortality. His use of primordial spirit power, which was also the power of mental strength, was not something other spirit controllers could compare to.
If other spirit controllers only had a ten percent chance of understanding the combat technique, for Wu Ming, it was more than ninety percent!
"Eh? This Observant Eye doesn't seem to be as simple as it looks … "
As he pushed forward, Wu Ming immediately found something!
