Luo Jianqing frowned slightly and pursed his thin lips.
In Qiu Shuifu's eyes, the young man in green seemed quite serious, as if he was going to confront him over a bun. He sneered and waved his hand, throwing a low-grade spirit stone at him, saying nonchalantly, "It's just a bun. Take it and get out of here."
Unexpectedly, just as his spirit stone reached Luo Jianqing, it was stopped by an invisible wall. The spirit stone plummeted to the ground, leaving Qiu Shuifu stunned.
He looked up and saw the young man in blue, who had been so baffling from earlier, lowering his eyes and gazing at him with a calm, indifferent gaze. His elegant and handsome face was expressionless; he simply looked at him indifferently, casually, as if he were looking at an insignificant speck of dust.
For some reason, Qiu Shuifu suddenly felt his heart tighten, and he subconsciously said, "Could it be you?"
Luo Jianqing raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled faintly: "What about me?"
Just a change in expression, and this young man was completely different from the one Qiu Shuifu had just seen!
If Luo Jianqing before was just a rich kid with an empty appearance and looked very stupid and naive, then now he looked like a high-level monk with immortal temperament, his black hair moving without wind, and his long green robe shining brightly under the sunlight.
Qiu Shuifu still felt that it was impossible. He used his spiritual sense to carefully scan Luo Jianqing and found that he was actually only in the middle stage of foundation building.
How could this be possible? How could a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building save Zhao Yue so many times right under his and Elder Li's noses?
unless……
"Do you have an accomplice? Call your accomplice out! Let's fight it out!"
Luo Jianqing chuckled and raised his eyes: "I have an accomplice? Mr. Qiu, please tell me, what exactly did I do? Just now, your companion casually exuded pressure, which frightened me so much that the bun fell to the ground and turned to dust. This is not an ordinary bun, and you still think you can get rid of me with just a spirit stone?"
Qiu Shuifu said angrily, "It's just a bun! One spirit stone is enough for you to buy more buns than you can eat in your lifetime!"
Luo Jianqing opened his eyes wide in surprise and said in a stunned tone, "Are you blind?"
The implication is: Are you blind?
Qiu Shuifu immediately scolded him: "Don't go too far! If you slander me again, I will make sure you can't leave this Martial Arts Chamber of Commerce!"
Luo Jianqing uttered a soft "Oh," as if muttering to himself, "So you're really blind."
Qiu Shuifu: "You!"
Xuan Lingzi watched calmly from the side. Seeing his disciple's mischievous prank, he didn't think he was bullying anyone. Instead, he found him adorable. Well, people from Mount Taihua shouldn't be bullied. Jianqing truly had the demeanor of Mount Taihua's top disciple.
Luo Jianqing had no idea his master could come up with such an amazing idea. He continued, "There's spiritual energy fluctuations on this bun. As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, how could you not even notice that? This isn't just an ordinary bun; it's my life-saving magic weapon!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene fell into silence.
Qiu Shuifu was so angry that his mouth twisted and he shouted, "Who in the world would treat a bun as their life-saving magic weapon?"
Luo Jianqing curled his lips into a smile and pointed at himself: "Yes, me."
Qiu Shuifu: “…”
Luo Jianqing looked at the bun lying on the ground with regret and said, "Ever since I embarked on the path of cultivation, this bun has been with me day and night. I couldn't bear to eat it every day, so you see, it's still intact. Later, I refined it into my life-long magic weapon. Logically, it should have received the same honorable status as other magic weapons. But now, look at it, it has fallen to the ground, dirty and covered in dust, while these magic weapons next to it are enshrined in this chamber of commerce, for people to choose from." After a pause, Luo Jianqing pursed his lips and sighed, "They are both magic weapons, how can there be such a big difference?"
Qiu Shuifu was so angry that he pointed his finger at Luo Jianqing and said, "You are lying!"
Luo Jianqing turned his gaze away from the bun, no longer showing the look of loss and pain he had just had. He raised the corners of his lips calmly, his clear eyes frank and limpid, and said calmly, "Then you will return my bun to me."
Qiu Shuifu: "It's just a bun. How many spirit stones do you want? I can't afford it."
Luo Jianqing said coldly: "One hundred high-grade spirit stones."
Qiu Shuifu opened his eyes wide: "You are talking nonsense!"
Luo Jianqing chuckled and asked in return, "So you don't want to pay?"
Hearing this, and then looking at Luo Jianqing's cold and indifferent expression, Qiu Shuifu suddenly felt that he had been tricked by this person. He folded his folding fan in anger and said, "You were planning this from the beginning. Don't think that just because you have someone behind you, you can bully my Prime Minister's Mansion. Today, I will let you know that there are always people better than you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Shui waved his fan and went forward.
Luo Jianqing didn't dodge. He stood at a distance, watching the hawk transformed from spiritual power pierce his eyes. When the hawk was about to peck at his eyes, he raised two fingers, gently pinched Qiu Shuifu's folding fan, and moved his wrist.
boom!
Qiu Shuifu flew backwards and was caught by the Jindan-stage guard.
There was shock all around. Even Zhao Yue looked at Luo Jianqing in disbelief, unable to recover for a long time.
"Is this... is this really the strength of a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building?"
"How could Master Qiu be knocked away by him after just one face-off? He didn't even move, how could this happen? Master Qiu is also in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, both are in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, how could the gap be so huge?"
