Chapter 18: Chapter 18 A leaf before the eyes hides Mount Tai

Boom, boom——

Lu Zheng’s eyes widened, and the heart that had just felt a bit better was once again ruthlessly hit!

“There really is a Ninth-grade Spiritual Root, it’s just… just… not me…”

As a “former Ninth-grade Spiritual Root,” the huge disparity, how could he endure it?

The blood in his body churned, and he could no longer hold back, spurting a large mouthful of blood mist on the spot, collapsing to the ground and convulsing incessantly.

Xu Yining was equally devastated.

She clenched her fists tightly, unable to accept it, and said, “Is there truly a Ninth-grade Spiritual Root in Lonely Boat City? Isn’t it possible that the Detection Tower is malfunctioning?”

Deputy Pavilion Master Chen said, “Although I do not know why the bronze ruler of the Detection Tower would mistake a third-grade mediocre talent as having a Ninth-grade Spiritual Root.”

“But, Lonely Boat City indeed has someone with a true Ninth-grade Spiritual Root.”

“The daughter of the Green Cloud Sect Master, I saw her not long ago, and even she admitted she was inferior.”

“However…”

Deputy Pavilion Master Chen frowned.

Although Liu Qingxian said she left the Green Cloud Order with the other person,

If the other person does not actively show it, how would he know?

Enough!

He still had to call Liu Qingxian back, as only she had seen the Ninth-grade Spiritual Root.

Only she could help find it together.

Xu Yining’s previously lightened mood was once again suppressed, she clenched her fists tightly and said, “I too want to know who this Ninth-grade Spiritual Root truly is!”

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhengdao looked at her with a long sigh and said earnestly, “Stay calm.”

“This Ninth-grade Spiritual Root is very special, not to mention your Sixth-grade Spiritual Root, even my Eighth-grade Spiritual Root is far inferior.”

“If you can get to know him, it would be the fortune of your life.”

The implication was that Xu Yining could only look up to him, and was not even qualified for comparison.

Xu Yining showed a surprised look, even an Eighth-grade Spiritual Root was worlds apart?

Then her Sixth-grade Spiritual Root would be even more disparate, right?

Thinking of this, she took some solace, thinking, even a Deputy Pavilion Master accepted it, what was her little Sixth-grade Spiritual Root worth?

She couldn’t help but imagine what kind of style the prodigy with the Ninth-grade Spiritual Root would have.

Murmuring, “He must be a dragon among men, invincible in the world?”

Suddenly.

She noticed Jiang Fan standing in place with his hand on his chin, lost in thought, which felt like an eyesore.

Today, he had taken all the limelight.

The Sixth Layer of Qi Cultivation realm made people see him in a new light.

But the more he did, didn’t it show that she had misjudged him in the past?

“Jiang Fan, winning against a ‘Ninth-grade Spiritual Root,’ are you very proud?”

Xu Yining said coldly with a face as if frost: “Lu Zheng hasn’t really been focused on training all these years, his mind was elsewhere.”

“His foundation is unstable, and his swordsmanship has not reached great success.”

“Winning against him is nothing.”

Jiang Fan snapped out of his thoughts.

He had been thinking about who the Ninth-grade Spiritual Root mentioned by Chen Zhengdao could be.

Even the daughter of the Green Cloud Sect Master admitted she was inferior, it must mean the person was extremely exceptional.

He wondered how his own transparent Spiritual Root compared to the Ninth-grade Spiritual Root.

On hearing her words, he just glanced at Xu Yining, and then dismissed it.

Turning, he smiled at Xu Youran and wrote: “Surprised?”

Xu Youran looked at Jiang Fan, her eyes full of light, nodding repeatedly: “Fan, you’re amazing!”

Jiang Fan treating Xu Yining as if she didn’t exist and only caring about Xu Youran’s opinion made Xu Yining inexplicably uncomfortable.

She felt overshadowed by her sister, Xu Youran.

This made Xu Yining feel somewhat uncomfortable.

At this time.

Chen Zhengdao also stood up to leave.

Without waiting for the Xu Family to see him off, he jumped onto the flying eagle and soared into the sky.

Xu Zhengyan let out a long sigh of relief, collapsing onto the chair: “Luckily, Deputy Pavilion Master Chen was kind-hearted and did not hold us accountable for the impostor Ninth-grade Spiritual Root.”

“Otherwise, our Xu Family would be in great trouble.”

He had been terrified earlier.

Lu Zheng, who had been convulsing for a while and started to recover, also showed a look of relief after surviving a disaster.

Although he was no longer a Ninth-grade Spiritual Root, fortunately, Deputy Pavilion Master Chen did not punish him.

However, the matter was far from over!

An enraged roar exploded in the air!

“Lu Zheng!!!”

Everyone trembled and looked towards the voice, seeing Qin Changsheng’s twisted face, as if he wanted to devour someone alive.

His hair stood on end, fists clenched, roaring: “You useless trash!”

The biggest loser this time was not Lu Zheng.

He was merely being returned to his original form.

But Qin Changsheng was different.

He had initially latched onto Lu Zheng and made wild bets.

Now with Lu Zheng’s true form revealed, never mind the embarrassment he felt.

He had given ten bottles of low-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid at first.

Earlier when he came to congratulate, he brought a congratulatory gift worth a staggering 300,000 taels of silver!

The key was, Lu Zheng had pretended to be generous and had given away all the low-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid, and it had all been drunk.

There was no way to return it!

Lu Zheng paled, saying, “Qin Family Head, calm down, I, I will find a way to repay you.”

He regretted deeply, wishing he had listened to Fan and not accepted the gifts first.

“Repay? With what will you repay?” Qin Changsheng’s eyes were red, wishing he could strangle Lu Zheng.

He initially thought the Qin family had leveraged Lu Zheng and the Soul Master behind him.

That’s why he offered a congratulatory gift worth 300,000 taels of silver.

In the end, it was all for nothing!

Facing the completely turned-against Qin Changsheng, Lu Zheng finally realized, the Qin family was truly one of the top four families in Lonely Boat City.

Normally, they wouldn’t even have had the chance to associate with someone like him.

Having a Ninth-grade Spiritual Root was understandable, but without it, he was nothing to them.

Terrified, he dared not speak and hid behind Wang Yingfeng.

Qin Changsheng raged: “Within three days, gather the money and repay me, or else, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

His body shook, emanating the powerful cultivation of the First Layer of Foundation Establishment.

Terrifying the Xu family onlookers significantly.

The Xu Family was merely a middle-ranked family, how could they withstand the wrath of the Qin family?

Lu Zheng could not hope to contend.

Without protection, Qin Changsheng would surely kill him!

As he left, Xu Zhengyan angrily glared at Lu Zheng: “You scourge, get out, the Xu family does not need such ingrates!”

He was furious.

Instead of being elevated by Lu Zheng to great heights, they were humiliated and became the laughing stock of the whole city.

Now they faced a colossal debt of 300,000 taels!

Wang Yingfeng, protective as always, started to throw a fit: “Xu! If you drive Zheng out, then you’ll have to drive me out too!”

She threw herself onto the ground, kicking her legs, wailing.

Xu Zhengyan, seeing her stubborn tantrum, felt helpless and said, “So, do you want the Xu family to burden this debt? That’s 300,000 taels of silver! Do you want the entire clan to starve?”

Wang Yingfeng was at a loss for words.

But she still wanted to protect her nephew, saying, “This—this can’t be blamed on Zheng, it’s all… all Jiang Fan’s fault!”

“Yes, if Jiang Fan hadn’t been next to Lu Zheng, bringing bad luck, would Zheng have mistakenly thought he was a Ninth-grade Spiritual Root?”

Hearing such unreasonable arguments, Xu Zhengyan also became angry.

Even though he disliked Jiang Fan, he felt Jiang Fan was innocent.

He couldn’t help but speak justly, “No matter how you twist it, this mess was caused by Lu Zheng himself! This debt, Lu Zheng will repay!”

Seeing her tantrum useless, Wang Yingfeng directed all her resentment towards Jiang Fan: “Why didn’t you let Lu Zheng win?”

“If you had let him win, wouldn’t there be no trouble?”

Xu Youran also became angry, saying, “Aunt Wang! That’s too much!”

“It was Lu Zheng who kept bullying Fan, now you blame him?”

Seeing even the little girl argue with her.

Wang Yingfeng became even angrier, shouting: “Out of order, right!”

“Fine, fine! You two really think you can become a couple and join hands to bully me, right?”

“Let me tell you, your marriage is not yet set in stone!”

“Jiang Fan, within three days, give me the bride price, if I am not satisfied, this marriage will not happen!”

Hearing this, Xu Youran’s face turned pale.

Blaming Jiang Fan so spitefully, the little bit of silver she had given Jiang Fan earlier would never be enough.

She bit her red lip, about to say some softening words of apology.

But Jiang Fan held her hand, stopping her.

With the other hand, he wrote boldly:

“If the bride price satisfies you, will you shut your filthy mouth for good?”
