Chapter 687 Visiting Card

Wu Chai stood in the crowd, watching Ning Zhuo speak, and couldn't help but stare slightly, somewhat incredulous.

He was just a Qi-refining cultivator with very poor aptitude, and could barely practice.

He had no family and no teacher. He just accidentally practiced a fragment and started his own journey of cultivation.

After nearly a hundred years of ups and downs, he is still only at the level of Qi Refining.

It's reached the top.

This is the limit of his qualifications.

But Wu Chai did not want to give up, even though he was already very old and had not much time left.

He used up all his family wealth, even sold his offensive and defensive magic weapons, before he raised enough money to board the teleportation array.

The main gate of the Wanxiang Sect can only be reached through a teleportation array.

After Wu Chai arrived, he was almost penniless and could not afford to buy any spiritual food, let alone rent a cave.

Fortunately, the main gate of the Wanxiang Sect is a Feng Shui treasure land with abundant spiritual energy, so that an old poor man like Wu Chai can barely make a living by sleeping in the open air, picking wild fruits and hunting in the wild.

He had bad luck throughout his life. Even though this was a golden age for cultivation and resources were abundant, he did not get any opportunities.

Ning Zhuo said that he had a good business and he didn't have to pay for the costs himself, which made everyone very interested and they looked at Ning Zhuo excitedly.

Ning Zhuo then explained the whole process.

It was very simple. He funded these people and asked them to go to the Internal Affairs Hall and rent a cave.

These caves are all located on the mountain where the Shiquan Cave is located.

At that time, Yu Heye would definitely send people to drive him away. Just like that cultivator, in order to get rid of Ning Zhuo, he gave him ten medium-grade spirit stones.

By then, the cultivators present would be able to obtain ten medium-grade spirit stones and directly agree to withdraw from the mountain.

Then, the monks would go to the Internal Affairs Hall, cancel the lease, and get the rent back.

The profits would be split in half. Ning Zhuo would take the rent and five mid-grade spirit stones. The remaining five would go to the others.

As soon as Ning Zhuo explained his plan, someone asked him further questions.

Ning Zhuo did not hide Yu Heye's existence, which made the whole audience fall into silence.

Everyone is not stupid, and they all know that Ning Zhuo's move is obviously to use them as pawns to make things difficult for a Jindan cultivator!

If this Jindan cultivator gets angry and wants to deal with them, wouldn't it be a disaster for him?

Of course, the rules of the Wanxiang Sect are there. No matter how arrogant Yu Heye is, he dare not kill people at will in the sect.

But the other party is a Jindan cultivator!

Just one sentence was enough to torture these low-level monks present to the point of excruciating pain, making their lives dark and bleak.

Ning Zhuo's reaction was not beyond his expectations.

He was quite confident and smiled confidently: "Everyone, money is not that easy to make."

"What good thing could allow you to obtain five mid-grade spirit stones for no reason?"

"You will pay the price..."

Before Ning Zhuo could finish, Wu Chai interrupted him loudly: "I'll do it!"

He invested all his wealth and teleported here, hoping to make one last attempt in his life with the help of the Feiyun Conference.

But Wu Chai had been wandering around the mountains these days and had seen clearly that according to the current trend, with his meager strength, he would not be able to complete any task and could only survive.

This opportunity is the only one he can seize since he came here for so many days!

What's wrong with being used?

What's wrong with having a feud with a Jindan cultivator?

What does he have now?

But if this is accomplished, it will be five medium-grade spirit stones!

A total of five medium-grade spirit stones.

Ning Zhuo glanced at Wu Chai and saw that he was a thin, white-haired old man. He nodded slightly.

Things went more smoothly than he expected.

"Good." Ning Zhuo praised immediately and took out a jade token in front of everyone: "A portion of my magic power is sealed here, it is a proof of my aura."

"Take this and go to the nearest branch of the Internal Affairs Hall and find a monk named Cao Gui who is currently serving."

"I've already negotiated with him and paid a large sum of spirit stones in advance. He will take you there to rent a cave."

The funds for renting the cave must not be handed over to these people.

It’s very simple, five medium-grade spirit stones, or dozens of medium-grade spirit stones?

The gap here is quite obvious. It is possible that some people will be blinded by greed and act impulsively to abscond with the money.

Cao Gui is different.

He was also carefully selected by Ning Zhuo after purchasing intelligence, and a divine contract was signed with him.

There was no need to sign a contract with these lower-level monks—a contract was very valuable. All of this was just the cost!

Wu Chai received the jade token and immediately released a withered yellow paper crane, sat on it, and walked away swayingly.

Everyone was silent for a moment, and then the second and third people walked out of the line and received the jade tokens.

After a while, most of the monks took the jade tokens and began to move. Only five or six people, feeling timid, voluntarily withdrew.

That's fine.

Ning Zhuo also expected this situation to happen, so he gathered more people.

All the cultivators he summoned were similar to Wu Chai. They were in a very bad situation and had little wealth. Even if five medium-grade spirit stones were not a huge sum of money, they were a timely rain that could quench their thirst.

"Haha, cousin, we are going to see a good show." Su Lingkou witnessed this scene with his own eyes, his eyes shining, looking forward to the next development.

Liu Fu was sent by Yu Heye to come to the door and "expel" Ning Zhuo, the foundation-building cultivator.

"How many people did you say?" When he learned that there were suddenly five more people on the mountain where he was and that they had rented a cave together, he was unable to react for a moment.

The subordinates made another clear report.

Liu Fu's brows furrowed, and after a moment's thought, he asked, "Are these five people from the same group?"

The subordinate shook his head, indicating that it didn't seem like it.

Liu Fu lost his patience and shouted, "It doesn't seem like it? Can't you even find out this? Get out and find out with all your strength!"

"Yes." The subordinate nodded quickly and left the room.

"Get back here!" Liu Fu suddenly waved his hand and changed his mind. "This matter... I have to handle it myself."

Liu Fu felt something was wrong.

He immediately set off and rushed to the caves rented by the newcomers to negotiate.

Wu Chai and others were the first wave. When they saw Liu Fu appear, they thought that he had finally arrived and walked out of the cave one after another.

Liu Fu said bluntly, give these newcomers ten medium-grade spirit stones and let them get out.

The newcomers were very cooperative and took ten medium-grade spirit stones. Some left immediately, and some even thanked with a smile.

After Liu Fu finished the matter, he breathed a sigh of relief and returned home.

As a result, not long after, the second group of monks arrived.

There are still five people this time.

Liu Fu's pupils shrank sharply, and his heart skipped a beat: "Damn it, there must be someone behind this, pushing this to make things difficult for me!"

Huge pressure hung over Liu Fu's heart.

Why?

The reason was that he had taken advantage of the situation—Yu Heye paid out real money, twelve mid-grade spirit stones for each expulsion. Liu Fu had played tricks, secretly taking two and only giving out ten mid-grade spirit stones.

This is a little secret.

Even if it was exposed, Liu Fu had calculated that Yu Heye wouldn't care - how much was it?

On the contrary, if Yu Heye blamed or punished him, it would make him, a dignified Jindan cultivator, seem a little stingy.

This is how it initially happened.

But gradually, as more and more monks were expelled, the number of spirit stones that Liu Fu secretly withheld increased.

The little secret turned into a big secret without us noticing.

Liu Fu actually felt a little regretful.

The amount of spirit stones he had withheld was gradually becoming too much for him to handle, but he couldn't stop.

The reason is simple.

If he gave twelve medium-grade spirit stones to the newcomer, what would the previous cultivators think if they heard about it?

We were all expelled, so why are you higher and I lower?

We are all smart people, so it is natural for us to figure out what is going on - Oh, Liu Fu has done something wrong.

Therefore, if Liu Fu did this, it would be tantamount to confessing his crime.

He could only secretly comfort himself: "Be patient, be patient for a while."

"Soon, the Feiyun Conference will officially begin."

"By then, there won't be many people who come here to rent a cave without knowing the truth."

"It's almost there, it's almost there..."

While Liu Fu was looking forward to the Feiyun Conference, Ning Zhuo's plan began.

The first wave of five cultivators and the second wave of five cultivators made Liu Fu's heart skip a beat and he felt something was wrong!

"Someone is targeting me! Who is it, who is it?!" It was not difficult for Liu Fu to find out the mastermind behind the scenes.

The low-level cultivators that Ning Zhuo used were all greedy for money.

Liu Fu only took out one or two medium-grade spirit stones and asked them to speak.

"Ning Zhuo?" Liu Fu frowned, puzzled by the answer.

He originally thought that the person who attacked him was a cultivator close to Yu Heye.

The small forces surrounding Yu Heye are not just Liu Fu, there are others with all kinds of small ideas.

Liu Fu thought carefully and found that he could not remember what Ning Zhuo looked like.

He still remembered that there was such a young man.

"Boy? Boy..."

"Can't stand this, so you're taking revenge?"

Liu Fu thought he had seen through Ning Zhuo's intention.

He immediately found an excuse, flew out of the mountain, took the initiative to find Ning Zhuo, and bribed him directly.

Liu Fu's message was simple: "I'll give you money, brother, just stop it! Stop it. I can, on behalf of Yu Heye, forgive you for what happened." Young people are prone to impulsive behavior and make mistakes.

He also has a lot of arrogance.

Although they are all foundation-building cultivators, Yu Heye is behind him.

"What's wrong with Ning Zhuo? It's obvious that he's a newcomer who came to the Feiyun Conference to try his luck and broaden his horizons."

It was no wonder Liu Fu made such a guess, for the Feiyun Conference had become a major event for Feiyun Nation. Powerful entities from all over the country, both large and small, would cast their gazes in anticipation.

Ning Zhuo remained friendly and said with a smile that he couldn't do it.

"Can't do it? How could you not do it?" Liu Fu shouted in dissatisfaction, "You have to do it, whether you want to or not!"

He stretched out his palm and slapped the table hard, then stood up and looked down at Ning Zhuo.

If it were an ordinary cultivator, he might have been captured by Liu Fu.

But Ning Zhuo has even defeated a Divine Transformation cultivator, so why should he be afraid of a small figure of the same level?

The corners of his mouth widened, revealing a more sincere smile, but the words he spoke were full of provocation: "Come here, send five people over to rent the cave now!"

Seeing Liu Fu's face flushed and his anger intensified, Ning Zhuo laughed out loud: "Oh, no, add ten people this time!"

Liu Fu's anger froze on his face.

At this moment he realized that he could not easily bluff Ning Zhuo.

"What do you want?!" Liu Fu lowered his voice, veins popping out on his head, and growled.

Ning Zhuo's smile faded slightly, and he pointed at him: "Speak nicely, don't scare my people."

Ning Zhuo was not communicating with Liu Fu alone, Qing Chi was standing next to him.

The girl was a ghost-human. Liu Fu took a quick glance at her and thought she was just Ning Zhuo's maid, so he didn't pay any attention to her.

Ning Zhuo wanted to take care of Qing Chi because she had lost her memory, so he took her to experience more things and used these things to teach the girl how to survive in the world of cultivation.

Liu Fu supported his hands on the table, lowered his head, closed his eyes, and took a few deep breaths.

He suppressed the anger in his heart and opened his eyes again: "Mr. Ning...Mr. Ning, what do you want?"

He almost gritted his teeth as he said this.

Ning Zhuo rubbed his fingers and said, "Give me a thousand mid-grade spirit stones, and I won't pursue this matter any further."

Liu Fu stared at Ning Zhuo in disbelief, shouting, "Are you crazy?! One thousand yuan?! What do you think I am? A sucker?"

"Is my head as big as yours?!"

Ning Zhuo: "One thousand yuan... seems a bit excessive."

"How about this, give me a 50% discount."

Liu Fu's eyes were bloodshot as he calculated in his mind, "Five hundred yuan? If I pay, won't I have to pay for it?"

"Such a price is also unreasonable!" Liu Fu lowered his voice again and shouted.

Ning Zhuo: "I'm not poor, I'll give you a 50% discount. But..."

Ning Zhuo took out a letter and said, "This is my visiting card to Senior Yu Heye. Please pass it on to him. Don't worry, I won't report you to him. I just want to make friends with him."

Liu Fu looked at the visiting card, his expression changing unpredictably for a moment, and he couldn't figure out Ning Zhuo's intention.

Shouldn't ordinary monks retreat away?

Why is this guy taking the initiative to come forward?

Isn’t he afraid that a Foundation Establishment cultivator with weak arms and legs will be beaten up by a Golden Core cultivator?

Liu Fu has realized that this visiting card is Ning Zhuo's real purpose.

He gritted his teeth and said, "What on earth do you want to do?"

Ning Zhuo smiled faintly and shook his head slowly: "You don't need to know."

Liu Fu took a deep breath, slowly reached out and took the visiting card in his hand.

After half an incense stick.

He knelt down in the rock cave, his face full of shame.

The negotiations with Ning Zhuo made Liu Fu realize that although the former was young, he was not easy to mess with and had ulterior motives.

This made Liu Fu feel scared.

So after learning from his mistakes, Liu Fu rushed back and confessed to Yu Heye and pleaded guilty.

Yu Heye smiled and said, "It's just a few hundred mid-grade spirit stones. It's no big deal."

He looked at the visiting card in his hand, which was the one Ning Zhuo asked Liu Fu to pass on.

A ball of fire suddenly appeared in Yu Heye's hand, burning the visiting card.

He snorted coldly, "A mere Foundation Establishment youth, you want to pay me a visit? Are you convinced you've already won?"

"Haha, naive."

He looked at Liu Fu and asked, "Why did I bring you with me and cultivate you?"

"Although the number of people Ning Zhuo has gathered is large, their cultivation is so low."

"All of you attack together, using the martial arts arena to challenge them. Once these people are restrained and taught a lesson, who would want to rent a cave?"

It is impossible for Yu Heye to take action personally.

He is a dignified Jindan. How can he still save his dignity if he attacks some low-level Qi-refining and foundation-building people?

But the monks around him can.

They should also stand up and deal with the current situation to relieve Yu Heye's worries.
