Fang Xing pretended to leave, but Meng Xuanzhao was still hesitating, obviously unwilling to pay the money.
"Wait!"
The yellow gowned girl called out to Fang Xing. Then, she slowly walked in front of Meng Xuanzhao and patted his shoulder, "Make up your mind quickly. The jade talisman can't be handed over to the Dao Sect, or else even your uncle won't be able to protect you!"
Meng Xuanzhao clenched his teeth. After a moment, he said in a low voice, "But … I don't have that many spirit stones right now!"
The black faced man also walked over and said, "I know you don't have it. Even we can't casually take out such a sum of spirit stones. Let's go talk to him. No matter what, that jade talisman must be destroyed as soon as possible!"
He also had a bitter smile on his face. Originally, they wanted to snatch the jade talisman as well, but after seeing Fang Xing's fourth-layer spirit formation cultivation, they immediately dispelled this idea and could only negotiate honestly.
Meng Xuanzhao hesitated for a long time, as if he couldn't bring himself to do it. But in the end, he still gathered his courage and walked in front of Fang Xing, saying in a low voice, "Junior Brother Fang, this time, I was too reckless. I doubted you for no reason, please … forgive me. For the price of the Stone Essence Powder, please look at our friendship and follow our previous agreement … three … thirty spirit stones. How about it?"
"Thirty?"
Fang Xing laughed and said to the black faced man, "Hey, brother, I'll use thirty spirit stones to buy your Stone Essence Powder. Will you sell it?"
The black faced man's expression was a little strange. He bitterly smiled and looked at the yellow gowned girl.
"Unable to accomplish anything, but more than enough to spoil things!"
The yellow gowned girl frowned and looked at Meng Xuanzhao with disappointment. Then, she turned her head and sat down, no longer paying attention to him.
From their point of view, this Meng Xuanzhao was really a hopeless fool. Even at this point, he was still unwilling to spend money and only wanted to use thirty spirit stones to get rid of Fang Xing. Did he only care about money? Even if you and Fang Xing agreed on thirty spirit stones, that was in the past. Did the previous Fang Xing have the cultivation of fourth-layer spirit formation? Do you know Senior Sister Lingyun?
And most importantly, does he have anything on you in the past?
From Fang Xing's sneer and the reactions of the dark-faced man and the yellow-clothed woman, Meng Xuanzhao also realized that he had made a fool of himself again. His face immediately flushed red as he hurriedly said, "But I really don't have that many spirit stones on me right now … After being robbed by the Smoke Robber last time, I became penniless. I only have a total of twenty or so spirit stones …"
Fang Xing smiled and said, "That's easy. Can't you just write an IOU?"
As he spoke, he took out a jade deed from the Grotto-Heaven Ring on the back of his ponytail and placed it in front of Meng Xuanzhao.
Meng Xuan's expression kept changing as he looked at the jade token. Sometimes he was annoyed, and sometimes he was resentful.
"Senior Brother Meng, you're too insincere. Forget it, I don't want the Spirit Stones anymore. You should wait for the Dao Sect Elder to find you!"
Fang Xing's eyes turned cold. He put away the jade deed and turned to leave.
Meng Xuanzhao immediately panicked and said with a trembling voice, "Don't … I'll write …"
Under Fang Xing's threat, he still wrote an IOU in the jade deed in the end. It clearly stated that he needed to pay three hundred spirit stones for one portion of Fang Xing's Stone Essence Powder. Then, he used his spiritual energy to stamp it. Fang Xing took it and carefully examined it. He nodded in satisfaction and said to the dark-faced man and the yellow-clothed woman, "Both of you happened to come here. Why don't you be witnesses?"
The dark-faced man and the yellow-clothed woman were startled. Displeasure appeared on their faces. It was obvious that they didn't want to get involved in this mess.
Fang Xing then sneered at Meng Xuanzhao. Meng Xuanzhao had no choice but to go over and discuss with them in a low voice. The two of them really couldn't let go of Meng Xuanzhao's face, so they could only come over and inject their spiritual energy to be witnesses.
Only then did Fang Xing nod in satisfaction. He casually tossed the "Sound Sending Talisman" to Meng Xuanzhao and left while laughing heartily.
Meng Xuanzhao sat down dejectedly. After a while, he injected his spiritual energy into the talisman to see what was recorded in it.
However, after he injected his spiritual energy, he was suddenly startled. His face turned from green to white, then from white to red. The dark-faced man saw that his expression wasn't right. He hurriedly took the talisman and was also stunned. He helplessly handed it to the yellow-clothed woman.
The woman took it and examined it at the same time. She immediately smiled bitterly and sighed softly. "How impressive!"
However, it turned out that there was nothing in the Sound Sending Talisman at all. In fact, it wasn't even activated.
The so-called recording of Meng Xuanzhao's words and so on was simply Fang Xing spouting nonsense.
Actually, Fang Xing was just a child after all. How could he be so meticulous and make preparations to record it in advance? To put it bluntly, when he heard that Meng Xuanzhao admitted to killing Liu Feng, he took the opportunity to bluff.
However, no one expected that Meng Xuanzhao, the dark-faced man, the yellow-clothed woman, and the other lackeys were all fooled by his bluff. They even forced Meng Xuanzhao to sign an IOU of three hundred spiritual stones …
"Damn it … don't think that you're safe just because you've broken through to the fourth level of spirit formation. I will definitely … tell my uncle!"
After a long time, Meng Xuanzhao growled in a low voice. The meaning behind his words was that he admitted that he wasn't Fang Xing's opponent.
"Quickly run …"
After swaggering out of the Purple Bamboo Forest, Fang Xing pulled the fat daoist and ran. Before the fat daoist could react, Fang Xing already told him that the Sound Sending Talisman was fake. It was used to bluff people. Who knows if Meng Xuanzhao and the others would chase after them after seeing it.
The fat daoist smiled bitterly. "With your current cultivation, you're not afraid of them right?"
Fang Xing said, "It has nothing to do with cultivation. Of course, I have to run after doing something bad …"
The fat daoist was speechless and could only run after him.
He faintly felt that this little devil wasn't afraid. He simply liked the feeling of running away after doing something bad.
After witnessing the entire scene in the bamboo forest, the fat daoist was really impressed by Fang Xing.
Actually, Fang Xing didn't answer any of Meng Xuanzhao and the others' questions directly. He was just pestering them endlessly.
But the answers he gave, no matter how infuriating and humiliating it was, it was hard to refute!
Just like how he said that the reason his cultivation soared was because he swallowed a stalk of spiritual herb. How could there be so many spiritual herbs in the world?
Most of the spiritual herbs used by cultivators were cultivated by various sects and families. Occasionally, there would be one or two natural spiritual herbs that would be sold at a sky-high price. The price of a wild spiritual herb was almost ten times the price of a cultivated spiritual herb!
Moreover, if a spiritual herb wasn't refined, it would be harmful to the body. But this little devil insisted that he ate a spiritual herb that was harmless to the body. What could you do to him? Cut open his stomach and take a look?
Perhaps, if Fang Xing didn't have any cultivation or background, Meng Xuanzhao and the others would really do that.
However, his cultivation had already reached the fourth layer of the spirit formation realm, which was higher than everyone else here. Furthermore, with Senior Sister Ling Yun's tiger skin as his coat, these outer sect spoilt brats really didn't dare to provoke him … …
If Fang Xing directly reported to the inner sect after breaking through to the fourth level of spirit formation, Meng Xuanzhao and the others still wouldn't dare to provoke him. But the relationship between him and the Smoke Bandit would probably spread in the Dao Sect, which wouldn't be good for his reputation. Now that Fang Xing had come to the Purple Bamboo Forest, no matter if he was pestering them endlessly or not, he had already cut off this layer of relationship on the surface.
Of course, this IOU of three hundred Spirit Stones was an additional income.
"Junior Brother Fang, are you … going to the inner sect to register now?"
Arriving at the foot of the mountain, the fat daoist looked at Fang Xing with a complicated expression and couldn't help but sigh.
In less than a year's time, the little beggar that was kicked away by him at the entrance has now become his big backer in the Dao Sect. Not only that, he even became the first outer sect disciple to advance to the fourth level of spirit formation …
Both of them obviously had the lowest aptitude, but there was such a world of difference. It could only be said that people were indeed different.
"Of course I have to register. The earlier I become an inner sect disciple, the earlier I can receive the protection of the sect, so as to avoid any accidents!"
Fang Xing tiptoed and patted the fat daoist's shoulder.
After a year, although he grew a lot taller, compared to the fat daoist, he was still a lot shorter.
"This young master is leaving. In the future, once you enter the inner sect, I'll allow you to use my name to do whatever you want!"
Fang Xing laughed heartily, took out a storage pouch, and said, "The resources inside are all for you. Cultivate well!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand and strode towards one of the seven peaks of the Blue Cloud Sect, Flying Stone Peak.
The fat Taoist opened the storage bag and saw a pile of bright red spirit stones inside. There were about a hundred of them, and there were a few bottles of pills that he could not name. There was also a silver flying sword of superior quality. His eyes immediately drooped.
He, Yu Sanliang, has been in the Dao Sect for seven years. It was already the eighth year and he finally saw the light of cultivation.
