Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 1562: Chapter 1564: Accepted

Ling Qing was taken aback to learn that this meal cost two Spirit Stones.

Two Spirit Stones? His monthly salary and benefits combined only amount to four Spirit Stones, and that’s not including the protection fee he has to pay!

And now, just one meal, and it’s a dish he eats every day, the Xianting fish, costs two Spirit Stones?!

Do you think he’d be willing to pay?!

The head chef was bewildered; he thought they’d end up paying in gold or silver, but unexpectedly, this student insisted on having Teacher Ling Qing pay with Spirit Stones?!

Just who is this student?!

Why is he able to make Ling Qing, a teacher, so fearful?!

Could it be the child of some leader?!

After all, even the three major demons never managed to oppress Ling Qing like this!

But the second chef on the floor was feeling quite pleased!

Damn! For making me take the fall! Are you stupid now?!

Hahaha, even you, Ling Qing, have days like this. Go on, be arrogant, be more arrogant!

Satisfying! That’s exactly how to deal with him!

At this moment, Ling Qing gave the head chef another look.

The head chef quickly nodded, understanding his intention: ”I see, why don’t we call it a tie; I’ll take care of this meal...”

”Two Spirit Stones, do you think you can pay that?” Lu Xiaobu glanced at the head chef, instantly silencing him.

The head chef smiled wryly.

He understood that this student was dead set on dealing with Ling Qing!

In a battle between deities, it’s better not to get involved!

”Student, is this really necessary...” Ling Qing still tried to struggle.

”You’re thinking of going back on your word?” Lu Xiaobu narrowed his eyes.

”No, no, no!” Ling Qing’s cheeks suddenly ached.

Damnit!

He accepted it! Accepted it, okay?!

He then gritted his teeth and pulled out two Spirit Stones from his body, handing them to Liu Fatty!

Damn it!

Fine, I’ll just get them back tomorrow!

”By the way, better not let me hear that you got the meal money back, otherwise, you know the consequences!” Lu Xiaobu said leisurely.

”I get it! I get it!” Ling Qing was so furious that his molars ached, but he had no choice but to endure!

Damnit! He decided to keep his distance from Lu Xiaobu.

Today was just pure bad luck!

For a single fish, he lost two Spirit Stones!

He won’t eat fish in the future!

As this matter settled down, Lu Xiaobu suddenly smelled a scent.

”Sniff sniff!”

Lu Xiaobu crinkled his nose, suddenly becoming ecstatic.

This aroma is quite good!

”Chef, do you still have any dishes that haven’t come out yet?!”

Lu Xiaobu asked excitedly.

”No, that’s all.” Liu Fatty was a bit confused and replied.

”Then what’s this aroma...” Lu Xiaobu asked, puzzled.

”Oh, it’s probably coming from the hills at the back; it’s not too far from here, people often cook there.” Ling Qing suddenly stepped forward to answer.

”Oh? Really?” Lu Xiaobu raised his eyebrows.

”Really.” Liu Fatty nodded.

Whatever happens, he’s definitely not going to oppose Ling Qing right now.

Besides, Ling Qing was telling the truth!

”Then I’ll go have a look.” Lu Xiaobu immediately headed toward the back hills.

As soon as he left, Liu Fatty took a deep breath and pulled out the Spirit Stones that Ling Qing had just given him: ”Teacher Ling Qing, please accept these. I’ll cover today’s meal.”

”No! You better keep them!” Ling Qing shook his head with a wry smile: ”I don’t want to cause more trouble.”

”May I ask, this student is...” Liu Fatty hesitated for a moment and still asked.

Ling Qing looked at Liu Fatty.

Thinking of how cooperative Liu Fatty was today.

So he shared: ”Ever heard of the slap fanatic Lu Xiaobu?!”

”I’ve heard of him, huh? Ah?! What?! Is it that guy...”

Liu Fatty almost jumped three feet high!

The student just now was Lu Xiaobu?!

He understood it now, he understood everything now!

Understood why Ling Qing’s attitude changed when facing Lu Xiaobu, also understood why Ling Qing didn’t even mention the student’s name.

Well, Ling Qing just got slapped by Lu Xiaobu.

Why mention it? To embarrass himself?!

The second chef on the floor’s pupils shrank in shock!

What?! That was Lu Xiaobu just now?!

The one who led the Violent Martial Class to rob the entire school, not sparing even the director?!

He, just now, actually thought he could trick this guy?!

Was he out of his mind?!

”Wait a minute!” Liu Fatty suddenly exclaimed: ”Teacher Ling Qing, you actually let Lu Xiaobu go to the back hills! That place is...”

”I sent him purposely; even though I conceded this time, it doesn’t mean I’ll really swallow my pride. I told the truth and didn’t deceive him, whatever conflict happens isn’t my concern.” Ling Qing sneered: ”Besides, who knows, maybe he’ll get some benefits too!”

Well, even he didn’t quite believe the last part!

”Alright then!”

Liu Fatty smiled wryly.

What kind of situation is this!

One is Lu Xiaobu, the other is that person, if they clash, there’s definitely going to be trouble!

Never mind, he won’t get involved in a deity fight!

After all, they probably wouldn’t stoop so low as to mess with a mere chef!

”Teacher Ling Qing, what about this guy...” Liu Fatty kicked the quivering second chef on the ground and asked.

”Kick him out, never let him enter Nanshan Academy again!” Ling Qing said coldly.

Dare to trick me?!

He’s tired of living!

”Yes!” The head chef agreed eagerly!

He also hated this guy enough!

He felt like he should give this guy a proper ’farewell’ before kicking him out!

Ling Qing left.

He had no interest in watching a thunderstorm showdown in the back hills.

He isn’t stupid; going there would only mean admitting he set up Lu Xiaobu?!

So, he went back to cultivate, waiting for a breakthrough to retaliate!

At the early stage of Foundation Establishment, he couldn’t beat Lu Xiaobu; at the mid-stage, he definitely could!

Well, he wasn’t aware Lu Xiaobu had beaten two demons, otherwise, he’d have given up on the idea!

...

Lu Xiaobu left the cafeteria and headed towards the back hills.

Sure enough, the aroma grew stronger the closer he got!

Soon, he crossed a patch of woodland and arrived at the source of the aroma.

There weren’t many people here, actually only one person.

That person appeared to be sixty or seventy years old, with gray, long hair dangling over his shoulders, looking very unkempt.

This made Lu Xiaobu raise an eyebrow; does the Cultivation World have such untidy people?

Generally, such people are either crazy or very respected.

This old man was obviously the latter.

The old man was squatting in a crude kitchen, fiddling with something, and the aroma was coming from there!

”Kid, stop sneaking around, get the hell out! Old man here doesn’t welcome outsiders!”

At this moment, a very rude statement came out of the old man’s mouth.

Clearly, this was addressed to Lu Xiaobu!

Oh, he’s been discovered?

Lu Xiaobu chuckled.

But he didn’t leave, instead, he stepped closer and walked over: ”When there’s a feast, you shouldn’t enjoy it alone!”
