Changsheng Xiuxian: I can see through everything

Chapter 10: Tensions Rise (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

It is impossible to obey.

Chen Xuan is a man with a bottom line. He will protect his family no matter what.

"Wu Tian, please be flexible."

Chen Xuan took another deep breath and said, "Give me two months. I'll go and collect ten spirit stones to honor you, old man. How about that?"

"Ten spirit stones, you still need two months, do you treat me like a child?"

"In the past half month, you have earned eight spirit stones by selling venom essence in the free market!"

Wu Tian said with a sneer, his eyes like greedy poisonous snakes.

That's it!

This is the tragedy of the low-level independent cultivators.

Even if there is a little opportunity, it will be targeted by various malicious forces and exploited.

Without any background or support, it is more difficult to stand out in such a chaotic world than for thousands of troops to cross a single-plank bridge!

"Then one month will be enough, right?"

"Sure! But you have to use that little girl as collateral!"

Chen Xuan shook his head.

Why is this happening?

He just wants to be a good person, but he always encounters such unreasonable beasts!

This is true for the burly casual cultivator and also for the Wild Wolf Gang leader Wu Tian.

Instead of thinking about being self-reliant and strong, they only want to seize and plunder, and bully the weak.

"In this case……"

After being promised a large amount of insect spirit essence, the poisonous flame golden silkworm in the Insect Emperor's Divine Wood Cauldron pranced and chirped, eager to try.

In that case, you can go to hell!
Whether it's the Wild Wolf Gang or the authentic descendants of the famous families behind them, if they have stepped on Chen Xuan's bottom line, I'm sorry, please go to the Western Paradise.

Smiling and picking up a flower, the Buddha said there are two kinds of worlds; looking at the reflection, I have a heart as pure as ice.

Just as he was about to start, a shout came from not far away.

"Wu Tian, you bastard, what are you doing in my place again!"

As he was speaking, the man came over. It was Manager Zhou, who was in charge of this area of shanties.

"Nothing, just chatting with a junior!"

When he met Manager Zhou, Wu Tian immediately changed his expression.

"Good morning, Steward Zhou. You're here so early to work. Thank you for your hard work, Steward!"

Wu Tian bowed repeatedly and saluted, then walked out with a smile on his face.

After walking out more than ten feet, out of sight of Manager Zhou, he made a vicious throat-cutting gesture towards Chen Xuan.

Manager Zhou suddenly turned around and shouted at Wu Tian and Er Gouzi, "Get out of here!"

"Get out! I'm leaving right now!"

Wu Tian slowly retreated with a playful smile on his face.

Manager Zhou shook his head and said to Chen Xuan sympathetically, "This place is just like that, a mix of good and bad people."

"I've also heard about the Wild Wolf Gang. However, they have some powerful people backing them up, so I can't do anything about them."

"Thank you, Manager Zhou!"

"If I'm here, they'll give me some face! If you have any difficulties, just ask."

"Thank you for your concern, Manager Zhou. We can get by now, but if we really can't make ends meet, we'll have to ask Manager Zhou for help."

"No, no. You are a young talent with a bright future. I am very willing to help you."

Chen Xuan chatted for a few words, and after Manager Zhou left, he closed the door with an expressionless face.

Jiang Yingxue had been holding Chen Xuan tightly, and only let go at this moment, and burst into tears with a "wow".

Chen Xuan did not dissuade her, but let Jiang Yingxue vent freely, so that she would not be depressed in her heart, which would affect her mood and be detrimental to her practice.

Unless it was absolutely necessary, he didn't want to have a head-on conflict with the Wild Wolf Gang.

The Wild Wolf Gang has a large number of people and is too powerful for him to be intimidated with his current strength, which will cause endless troubles.

Moreover, the sect power behind the Wild Wolf Gang also made him cautious.

Never mind the famous and orthodox sects. The actions of these high-ranking figures are not much nobler than those of the evil and demonic sects.

On the surface, he appears to be righteous and awe-inspiring.

Behind the backs of people are thieves and prostitutes, selfish and greedy.

This has been the case for tens of millions of years.

……

On a mountain far away from the shanty town.

Wu Tian and Er Gouzi gradually drifted apart.

"Master Wu, if it were you, we should have just gone straight into the house and snatched the person away. There's no need for such a hassle! But Steward Zhou ruined everything!"

Er Gouzi said swearingly.

"Idiot!" Wu Tian slapped the man on the head. "Do you think the Jinyang Sect's law enforcement team is vegetarian?"

The exploitation of independent cultivators and bullying of the weak have never been stopped, but under the nose of the Jinyang Sect's manager, they will take the initiative to stop.

"what is it now?"

Er Gouzi asked, "Deputy Gang Leader Li is still waiting for Wu Tang Master's pretty young lady!"

"Why are you in such a hurry? Manager Zhou can't protect him forever!"

Wu Tian snorted coldly, saying disdainfully, "As long as he leaves the house, he'll be in trouble! How can a casual cultivator in the early stages of Qi training, with no foundation, rebel against the heavens!"

……

Inside the house, when Jiang Yingxue was tired of crying, Chen Xuan took out a handkerchief and helped her wipe her tears.

"Husband, I've gotten myself into trouble for you!"

Chen Xuan laughed instead.

"Fool! It's none of your business!"

"Every man is innocent, but he is guilty of carrying a jade."

After Chen Xuan explained a few words, Jiang Yingxue felt a little relieved.

It turned out that the other party's target was not my beautiful face, but my husband's method of making poison.

"Don't worry, my lady. He thinks I'm a child carrying gold in his arms, walking through the busy streets. In fact, I'm an enlightened Buddha holding a butcher's knife!"

Chen Xuan briefly recounted the battle in Shadow Forest last night.

"what!"

Jiang Yingxue's cherry lips were once again wide open in shock.

Last night, her husband went into the training room as soon as he came back. She thought that he was inspired and was studying and practicing hard.

Unexpectedly, he had just finished a life-and-death battle and was sorting out the spoils.

"This white silk, a water dragon talisman, a water arrow talisman, and three spirit stones, keep them safe."

"Don't always think about washing clothes and cooking. Make good use of your time to practice Jianghai Xuanshui Gong. You can use spirit stones when necessary."

Chen Xuan sighed earnestly, "Improving your strength is the best way to protect yourself."

"Husband, I will!"

After putting away the talisman and spirit stone, Jiang Yingxue carefully examined the white silk in her hand. There were several tiny cracks on it.

"Luckily, Manager Zhou arrived in time, and those two bastards escaped with their lives!"

In her mind, Chen Xuan was very powerful and could definitely beat Wu Tian and Er Gouzi to a pulp.

"It's not that simple."

"Don't you think that Manager Zhou's arrival is a bit too coincidental?"

Chen Xuan was speechless.

One plays the good guy and the other plays the bad guy. Do you really think he is a young man who is ignorant of the world?
My wife is good in every way, except that she is a little short of knowledge and thinks too highly of others.

He doesn't want his wife to be a naive person.

"what?"

Jiang Yingxue rolled her eyes and realized that she was too naive.

"Remember, in this world, you can only rely on yourself. Don't trust anyone!"

"I remember!"

Jiang Yingxue nodded heavily, as if talking to herself.

"I can't trust anyone except my husband!"

The storm seems to have passed.

But Chen Xuan's heart was always heavy.

It has been a year since my father disappeared, and none of the demon hunters who went with him have returned, so things are looking very bad.

As long as people are here, human feelings are there.

When a person dies, there is no friendship between the two.

Very realistic and makes sense.

The original body was a low-level cultivator who never left home, and his interpersonal relationships were simpler.

Apart from Jiang Yingxue, he only has a pair of brothers who are his good friends.

The fathers of the two families were old friends. Both were demon hunters who had experienced life and death together and had also been missing for a year.

In order to make a living, Yu Dahu and Yu Xiaohu followed another hunting team into the wilderness and have not returned yet.

Chen Xuan remembered very clearly that the Yu brothers were only at the third level of Qi training and could only do odd jobs in the hunting team.

They are much more courageous than their original selves.

Apart from this, there is no one else with whom I can have any friendship.

No, there is another person who might be useful!

Yu Qingsong, an experienced person who likes to pick up bargains in the free market!
