83 I Know How to Pretend Nice, Alright
Hearing it, Fang Jinyu’s brows twitched.
It was because Fang Jinyu had read between the lines.
Thus, Fang Jinyu pretended to sigh and tried to make himself look more aggrieved. “Junior Sister Su, what are you saying? I’m just doing my best in the competition on Mount Shidao. Besides, I’m worried that if I don’t try my best, you will think I’m looking down on you!”
Hearing that, Su Yier’s beautiful face frowned.
Although Fang Jinyu’s words might sound credible, her “Primordial God Lishan” told her that if he hadn’t intervened that day, she would have died from a single blow from the middle-grade lightning-attribute spirit tool.
However, before Su Yier could say anything, the male cultivator who was not worth much to describe jumped forward.
“So you’re Fang Jinyu!”
The male cultivator’s expression was slightly cold, and his eyes were filled with unconcealed killing intent.
His name was Qi Muchen, and he had fallen in love with Su Yier with a glance when he was traveling. From that time onwards, he was deeply in love with her.
When Qi Muchen finally found out the person he admired was a female disciple of the Tianling Sect called Su Yier, he found out that she had almost been knocked unconscious by someone, and the person who had fought with her was Fang Jinyu!
It made Qi Muchen, who had long regarded Su Yier as his muse, immediately hate Fang Jinyu.
After all, in his opinion, with his status in the Qi family, it was only a matter of time before he could marry an ordinary sect disciple.
Therefore, Fang Jinyu’s hit Su Yier was equivalent to looking down on him!
“Fellow Daoist, I wonder if…” Fang Jinyu pretended to be surprised and tried to control himself to maintain his image of a kind and honest man. At the same time, he also tried to avoid beating him up.
Meanwhile, Fang Jinyu was searching through his memories for anything related to this fellow.
After all, Qi Muchen was Su Yier’s lackey, so no matter what, he should have appeared in the strange book.
Although Fang Jinyu couldn’t recall any memories related to Qi Muchen, he did recall one of Su Yier’s lackeys—Qi Mo!
Qi Mo was the youngest Core Formation stage cultivator in the Utopia Immortal City and also the youngest grandson of the Nascent Soul stage cultivator. At the same time, he was also the one with the best aptitude.
Since Qi Mo had a water-attribute Tianling spiritual root, even though he had an angular face and was full of masculinity, he still looked gentle and handsome.
Just like the “handsome young man that is unmatched in the world” Hua Wuque.
Qi Mo might not be the one with the highest cultivation base among Su Yier’s lackeys, but he was definitely the man that she liked the most.
Su Yier didn’t hesitate to go to the Immortal Ancient Desolate Tomb to seek medicine for Qi Mo, just to solve his innate deficiency and to prolong his life.
“Who is your fellow Daoist?! Don’t make people think that we are close!”
Meanwhile, Qi Muchen chided, “What makes you think you can call me your fellow Daoist? Who do you think you are?!”
Fang Jinyu cursed in his heart, “I’m just being polite to you, but you’re acting in such a fucking bastard way!”
Fang Jinyu raised his eyebrows. He had always been a tolerant person, but he wasn’t the type of person who would allow people to humiliate him. Furthermore, a mere Qi clan disciple wasn’t worth his tolerance.
“I’m an alchemist of the Tianling Sect. What’s your identity?” When Fang Jinyu spoke, he immediately exerted his aura as a cultivator who ranked 7 in the Foundation Establishment stage.
Heavy pressure was concentrated on Qi Muchen, causing his face to turn pale. Meanwhile, he took a few steps back and fell on his butt.
Qi Muchen was only a middle-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.
With Fang Jinyu’s level of understanding of the Foundation Establishment stage, he could tell at a glance that Qi Muchen had relied on elixirs to break through. He had consumed all kinds of inner energy-enhancing elixirs and bottleneck-breaking elixirs. He might consume ten times, twenty times, or even a hundred times of amount more than others to forcibly break through to the middle-stage Foundation Establishment.
It was no different from pulling up seedlings to help them grow.
If Qi Muchen didn’t have a great opportunity to sort out his cultivation problems, he would never be able to break through rank 7 in the Foundation Establishment stage.
“You …”
Qi Muchen’s expression changed drastically. He had only heard that Fang Jinyu was an alchemist who had only started refining elixirs in the past few years. He didn’t expect him to have a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation base!
Wasn’t Fang Jinyu only broken through the Foundation Establishment stage a few years ago?
Qi Muchen found the situation hard to believe. After all, he had been stuck in the middle-stage Foundation Establishment for many years. He was almost despairing at his bottleneck.
However, someone suddenly said, “Although you’re an alchemist of the Tianling Sect, you shouldn’t bully others. After all, you’re now in the Utopia Immortal City.” His words instantly dissipate Fang Jinyu’s oppressive aura.
The person’s voice was gentle, and one could tell that it was a man.
Such a casual approach made Fang Jinyu think of a possibility-Core Formation stage cultivator!
Thus, Fang Jinyu decided to follow his heart.
“Senior, you’re right.”
Fang Jinyu cupped his fists and looked as if he were sincerely accepting the lesson. He said, “I was too angry.”
The man continued to say gently, “Alright. I believe you’re here to purchase spirit herbs. You should go to the Lingyun Pavillion now. You can get a 30% discount on your purchase of spirit herbs.”
First, the man intimidated Fang Jinyu, and then he generously gave him some benefits. His actions not only preserved the Qi family’s good name but also avoided the displeasure of the Tianling Sect. It made Fang Jinyu instantly confirm his identity.
He was Qi Mo!
It was because the Qi family’s shop sign was hanging on the Lingyun Pavilion, and the Core Formation stage cultivator that was guarding the Qi family was Su Yier’s favorite lackey.
However, before Fang Jinyu could respond, Su Yier stood up and said, “Senior, you don’t have to give him the 30% discount. In this matter, Senior Brother Fang was at fault in the first place. He shouldn’t have hurt Senior Brother Qi.”
Fang Jinyu was speechless.
Meanwhile, Fang Jinyu couldn’t help but curse in his heart, “FUCK YOU!”
Fang Jinyu’s ancestor almost went berserk because of it while scolding, “Who do you think you are? Why are you intervening in the matter?”
Fang Jinyu didn’t intend to pocket the spirit stones that he had saved from the 30% discount. Instead, he wanted to use the opportunity to buy some spirit herbs that he needed. Although he was already extremely rich, who would want to spend more if he could spend fewer spirit stones?
Moreover, the spirit herbs that Fang Jinyu needed to buy weren’t cheap.
“Oh?”
The man with a gentle voice couldn’t help but reveal a surprised look. However, he immediately said, “Since junior sister says so, then we’ll do as you say!”
Although Qi Mo was the current head of the Qi family and had the greatest authority to make decisions, his subordinates would still object to a 30% discount.
They would save as much as they could!
“Senior brother, thank you for your magnanimity!” When Su Yier heard Qi Mo address her as his junior sister, she followed suit and addressed her as her senior brother.
Fang Jinyu’s face was expressionless, but he was already cursing in his heart.
“You guys just talked for a while, but now I’m the one to blame?!”
“Alright, everyone will think my actions are quite sinful at first glance, right? After all, I first ridiculed him, and then I suppressed him with my aura… I acted like a villain!”
“However…”
“FUCK!”
It was just that the book didn’t mention who Su Yier’s parents were. Otherwise, Fang Jinyu would have gone to meet her parents and talked about Su Yier’s attitude problem.
After all, since Su Yier was protected by the upper realm split soul, Fang Jinyu was truly helpless against her.
