C964 Pressure from the Nascent Soul
Zhong Ming had even accepted a mortal as his disciple, so what if he accepted a girl with decent talent? With plenty of resources for her to use, he didn't believe that he wouldn't be able to cultivate a Pharmacist. In the future, he would still need a Pharmacist for his Longming City.0
Zhong Ming found that her spirit roots were scattered, but to him, purifying her spirit roots was not a difficult thing, as long as her spirit roots were repaired, she would be able to travel a thousand miles in a single day, Zhong Ming was very confident.
The girl was very smart and knew that she had plans to take him in as her disciple. She directly took him in as her disciple. Although it was just a whim on his part, there was nothing bad about having a little disciple.
"Master, Zhong Ming, at present, there are some enemies who are inconvenient for me to use my real identity. Do you remember the name I am using now?" Zhong Ming pulled Lan Xueying up, thinking that it was still unknown how long it would take for him to regain his original identity, and then walk out openly to meet other people.
A girl who had no one to rely on finally had a backer. Her heart was filled with excitement, but at the same time, she also felt that she was incredibly lucky. Perhaps in the future, no one would be able to bully her.
All these years, she had been living in the midst of repayment of debts, living to the point where she no longer had herself to turn the situation around. If not for the debt, she would have been living such a tired life, and did not have much time to cultivate, to the point that she had to stay at the Foundation Stage, being bullied from time to time. Her grandfather's prestige also did not have much of an effect on her now, and if not for Zhong Ming's arrival, she would have been kicked out.
Zhong Ming's arrival gave her hope, she was very clear about what a Pharmacist would bring her, and the industry that people respected the most in All Saints City was the most. If not for her grandfather's accident, she would have gained a lot of advantage.
"Go and call all the creditors into the courtyard. I'll have them leave." Zhong Ming took the girl as his disciple and helped her change the debt.
"This, master, I owe them a lot of money, the house has already been mortgaged to them, if they can't take out the Spirit Stone, they won't leave." Lan Xueying said, he knew that he couldn't do this as a master, he couldn't be someone who went back on his words.
"Other than living here, do you have creditors outside?" Zhong Ming asked again.
"Those who live here have a lot of debts, and some do not owe much. There is no place for them to live, so they don't stay here any longer. They will only come to me at the end of the month to collect the debts." Lan Xueying said.
"Call out the people here first, I'll deal with them. We can talk about the rest after we get rid of them. Go." Zhong Ming said with his hands behind his back.
When Zhong Ming came to the center of the courtyard, there were only three cultivators that were called out by the girl. Unexpectedly, they were the weakest cultivators here, and it seemed like they were forced by Zhong Ming's pressure and had to come out.
Seeing that he was the only one who came out, this person had a slightly ugly face. He did not dare get angry with the male cultivator in front of him, and instead said to Lan Xueying: "What exactly do you want, I still need to cultivate. If not to repay the debt, do not disturb us."
"Sorry to bother you. My master has something to discuss with you." Lan Xueying said timidly.
If not for this, they would not have given him face. However, they did not expect him to be the master of this little girl, so what? Even if he did not return the money, they were not afraid of him, and even if they reached the City Lord's place, they did not know what they had to say. They first looked around, but did not make things difficult for Lan Xueying, nor did they stand there waiting for anything.
When Zhong Ming saw that there were only three people who came out, and that the rest did not take him seriously, he was already very angry. With the strike of the Soul-shaking Piercing, the five people who were waiting in the middle of the room immediately started bleeding from the corner of their mouths. Their expressions changed greatly, and they knew that the people outside were Senior Cultivator, and were not people they could contend against.
Zhong Ming had only used the Spiritual Sense's attack to punish them a little. Otherwise, not only would they bleed so little, their mental states would be severely damaged.
When these people saw the fear on Zhong Ming's face, they never thought that this cultivator's cultivation would be so high that he would be able to easily use his mental attack against them. It seemed that he had retracted some of his strength, or else they would not have walked out so easily, but after seeing Lan Xueying's face, they felt more confident.
Even if you had someone backing you up, you still wouldn't know that Spirit Stone has no reason to bully others using their power. All Saints City isn't a place where anyone can be despotic, at most, we'll just report it to the mayor.
"This courtyard belongs to Lan Xueying. Have you paid the rent?" Zhong Ming asked.
"Lan Xueying owes us money, and has not paid us back for so many years, so of course we have to come here, Outer — she ran away and we lost everything we have, back then her grandfather solemnly swore to return the money to us back to Spirit Stone, we haven't said anything yet, who do you think you are?" A Middle Stage Of Core Formation cultivator said, he was not afraid of offending a Nascent Soul Cultivator, this was a All Saints City, and the law enforcement here was a Soul Formation Cultivator. This Nascent Soul Cultivator could not overturn the heavens, and he could even incriminate a person who bullied others.
"You've got a lot of confidence in your words, how many more Spirit Stone have you left, Lan Xueying?" Zhong Ming sneered.
"At that time, her grandfather borrowed a hundred and fifteen thousand Spirit Stone from me, and Lan Xueying didn't even pay a single cent of it." This cultivator said full of vigor.
"Oh, one hundred and three thousand. With just such a small number of Spirit Stone, you dare to brazenly live in my place, and yet you argue so unreasonably." Zhong Ming never thought that they would be able to force a little girl to work so hard for them, to take away the fruits of her labour just like that.
"What do you mean so little? Who are you? Who are you to meddle in other people's business? You want to bully us just because you have a higher cultivation than us? We also have law enforcement cultivators here, not you can do whatever you want." They were not afraid of making a big deal out of it. They would have to pay them wherever they went.
"I'm Lan Xueying's master, and I'm here to help him pay back the money today. Then, I must clear up this account, right?" Zhong Ming looked at him coldly and said. Zhong Ming admired this cultivator too, he actually dared to openly challenge him, he had much more spirit than the other cultivators.
Seeing that Zhong Ming wanted to return the money for him, some people were happy, some people had ugly expressions. All these expressions were in Zhong Ming's eyes, they wanted to return the money to the house, but Zhong Ming had broken their plans, how could they be happy in their hearts?
