C686 Deflated
It seemed that Zhong Ming was not simple, he had set his eyes on everything long term, the other two people understood Zhong Ming's intentions, if they wanted to stay in this place, they would need to rely on someone to support them, but they could not get their hands on the Beauty Pill, which made Steward Xin a little unhappy.
Shopkeeper Zhong, this won't do, I can't ask for your pills for nothing. I didn't come here today as the City Lord to ask for pills, but as a husband, so I wanted you to tell me how many Spirit Stone s I should have. City Lord Loong waved his hand and said.
City Lord Loong's reaction made Zhong Ming's heart sink, it seemed like he made a mistake in his bet, this City Lord Loong was the second type of person, after finishing all these, he would pat his butt and leave. In truth, Zhong Ming was just gambling, regardless of right or wrong, it was only a pill, so what if he misjudged it, so what? At most, he would not open a shop in this Tongcheng anymore.
City Lord Loong does not need to be so courteous, I know that you are an emotional person, and it is only because of your infatuation towards Madam that I give up my love, because I admire the person I love the most. Take this pill today, and treat it as a friend of mine.
Seeing that Zhong Ming had said all that, the City Lord Loong did not hold back and laughed: "Shopkeeper Zhong is straightforward, I have made this friend of yours, from now on, you will call me Big Brother Lun and I will call you Brother Zhong. There is no need to be so polite between us."
No matter what kind of intentions City Lord Loong had, since he had said so, Zhong Ming could only clasp his hands and say: "I won't be courteous, Brother Duo."
Although the two of them acted so courteous on the surface, Zhong Ming was still thinking in his heart about this person. Maybe it was because the Beauty Pill was not in his possession yet, or maybe it was just because he was someone who liked to show off his strength on the surface, and he wouldn't give his all just because of a Beauty Pill. In this place, which one was not a human with his own little 90%, perhaps he simply didn't think much of this little fellow with Foundation Stage.
"Brother Duo, congratulations on obtaining the Beauty Pill." Pei Jun cupped his hands in congratulations. Although he was not willing to accept the fact that Steward Xin had not obtained the Beauty Pill, on the surface, he was alright, but he also had to hurry up and congratulate them, but a look of hatred flashed past his eyes. Although it was short, and quickly disappeared, but Zhong Ming had still seen it.
Zhong Ming knew that he had already offended the Spirit Medicine Pavilion, but with the way things were today, he could only do this. If not, he could offend three clans, and there would be no need for him to continue living here.
"Guo'er, go and bring the Beauty Pill over." Zhong Ming knew that regardless of whether he could hand the person over or not, he could not go back on his word. A mere Beauty Pill was nothing in his eyes.
Just as Lin Guo'er was happily going to go get the Beauty Pill, two people came in from outside. They were dressed in gorgeous and elegant clothes, and as soon as he entered the door, he said to Steward Xin loudly: "Steward Xin, how's the matter?"
It was a young man around the age of seventeen or eighteen. His eyes were filled with insolence and he was already a Foundation Establishment cultivator at such a young age.
"Reporting to the Young Master, the Beauty Pill have already returned to the City Lord Loong, we did not manage to buy them."
"Trash." After he finished speaking, he looked up to see City Lord Loong and Xin Yuan from the Duo Bao Pavilion. Although he was a little unwilling, he still greeted the City Lord Loong.
"Uncle Duo, why did you come here personally to buy medicinal pellets? Aunt Duo is truly blessed. I, your nephew, am here to congratulate you." Although this brat was very arrogant, he still managed to show off quite a bit on the surface. After greeting City Lord Loong, he looked at Pei Jun and only nodded his head, they had never dealt with Duo Bao Pavilion and did not put Pei Jun in their eyes, thus, today, it was only because of this that City Lord Loong was not allowed to put on an act here.
"It seems like you are this shop's shopkeeper. You are actually an early Foundation Establishment cultivator. Very good, you actually dare to open this shop in our Tongcheng. You have guts, brat." This Young Master did not place Zhong Ming in his eyes at all, every word he spoke was filled with threat. Since he did not obtain the Beauty Pill today, he could only use his words to attack Zhong Ming to vent his anger.
This kid was very arrogant, even the City Lord Loong sitting here couldn't help but frown, but he didn't go out to criticize. This brat was very arrogant, even daring to speak rudely in front of him.
He wanted to tell their Young Master that today was not the best time to cause trouble and that he could take care of Zhong Ming anytime, but City Lord Loong was still here today.
At this moment, Lin Guo'er came out of the medicine box. Although Lin Guo'er was not an unparalleled beauty, she was still like a lotus flower that had just emerged from the mud, and her fresh and beautiful face made people's eyes light up.
This Young Master was in the middle of making trouble, and upon seeing Lin Guo'er who was coming over, his heart couldn't help but to be moved.
"I never thought that a small shop would have such a great beauty. I didn't get any pills today, but the pill is mine to compensate for this woman." After that, he extended his hand out to grab Lin Guo'er.
Lin Guo'er screamed in shock, almost throwing the medicine box in his hands away.
He wanted to see if he was the kind of person who would turn hostile after taking the pill. Even if he was, Zhong Ming would not let him just stand by and watch.
Although City Lord Loong did not say anything, he still wanted to open his mouth to stop him, but Zhong Ming could not let him calm down. Taking the chance to speak, he kicked Young Master down, and when he was on the ground, Zhong Ming kicked his leg. Ka Ba sound out, it was clear that one of Young Master's leg was crippled.
The speed of Zhong Ming's attacks was so fast that the Steward Xin and the bodyguards Young Master brought over did not have the chance to intervene and stop him. Before they even had a chance to understand what was going on, their Young Master's leg had already been crippled.
The reason why Zhong Ming's sneak attack was successful was because Young Master was also careless, he did not fancy Zhong Ming at all. He only thought that an early stage Foundation Establishment cultivator was not his opponent and was not prepared for it, even if he was prepared, he was not Zhong Ming's opponent.
He was not prepared for the kick in the beginning, but when Zhong Ming lifted his leg to kick him, he felt that he should have dodged, but he did not know that Zhong Ming's cultivation was truly strong, being able to suppress his middle stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, causing him to not have any energy to retaliate.
This was because Zhong Ming's fighting style was not even a way of fighting of Immortal Cultivation Realm. He neither used talismans nor spells, but just fought and kicked like a normal person. Even so, this Young Master had no way of escaping.
This Young Master had one of his legs crippled, Zhong Ming did not let him get away, but while they were in a daze, he kicked him out of the door. Actually, Zhong Ming could have killed it instantly, but he had just landed on this place, and did not even manage to stabilize his footing, he did not want to offend them too much, because in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, his little injuries were only caused by a few medicinal pellets, it would only take a few days to recover.
If the City Lord Loong didn't become his backer, then he wouldn't be able to protect himself when he made such a strong enemy. Today, he taught this Young Master a lesson, and wanted to see the attitude of this City Lord Loong. In any case, he did not fight this Young Master, and had already offended the Spirit Medicine Pavilion.
Steward Xin and the bodyguard who reacted from his shock quickly went forward to help their Young Master up, and looked at Zhong Ming venomously.1
Yet this City Lord Loong just sat there expressionlessly, did not speak, and did not move. When Zhong Ming made his move just now, he already understood Zhong Ming's intentions. Although he didn't want to go against Spirit Medicine Pavilion, and wasn't afraid of them, he had taken a pellet of human medicine for free, so he had to show it on the surface. He must at least repay Zhong Ming a favor.
Logically speaking, with the high cultivation level of the City Lord Loong, he should have the ability to stop Zhong Ming's actions earlier, but he did not do anything, which made the Steward Xin unhappy, but the Steward Xin understood, the City Lord Loong had just gotten benefits from someone, so he could only stop the City Lord Loong from interfering, thus they could only do whatever they wanted to this small early stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.
"You brat, you're too arrogant. City Lord Loong, you've already seen it earlier, this brat is actually within the Tongcheng realm, and he's injuring our Young Master …" He had to take revenge today, otherwise, he would be punished when he returned. He actually injured the Young Master right under his eyes, and he did not have the ability to stop it. In other words, he did not even see how Zhong Ming made his move, how could he explain that?
"You can't speak nonsense, he was the one who was rude first, and the one who flirted with me was the one behind this, which hot-blooded man was able to endure this and did not beat him to death. I have already shown mercy, I believe that City Lord Loong is also a person who pays attention to relationships and will handle it impartially." Zhong Ming said righteously.
Zhong Ming knew that the biggest characteristic of this City Lord Loong was that he was afraid of his wife.
Hearing Zhong Ming say that, the current Lin Guo'er could not help but blush with shame, her heart was extremely excited, she did not expect the Big Brother Zhong to like her too.
The City Lord Loong did not let Zhong Ming down, and said: "Since you all want me to uphold justice, then let me say something fair. Just now, he was clearly a Young Master of the Spirit Medicine Pavilion, and was causing trouble for no reason.
"We have known the City Lord Loong for many years, why did you still speak up for an outsider? "He's just a small external foundation …" Steward Xin knew that this City Lord Loong had taken advantage of him and obtained the Beauty Pill, so he spoke up for this fellow. But how could he be satisfied with this, he just opened his mouth to defend himself when he was interrupted by the City Lord Loong.
"Okay, this matter shall end here. You all are the ones who are unreasonable. Could it be that I have wronged you all? Quickly, bring him back to heal your injuries." City Lord Loong had already darkened his face. He couldn't just take a pill for free, he had to suppress this matter today. It had nothing to do with him in the future.
Steward Xin still wanted to say something, but he could not afford to offend City Lord Loong. Sooner or later, however, this Zhong Ming would finish him off …
