With her lips pressed tightly together, Miss Zhao's eyes were redder than ever.
These days, many 'Sheng Ning's' have flooded into Youyun City. She often went to the city gate to look around, but in the end, she always returned disappointed.
I thought I would never see Sheng Ning again in my life, but I never expected that she would come to Youyun City again.
Clinging tightly to Sheng Ning's sleeves, Miss Zhao knelt down before her in front of everyone.
"I was terrified during those days, and I haven't even had a chance to kowtow and thank Miss Sheng after being rescued. Today, I've finally seen you again..."
After saying that, Miss Zhao kowtowed heavily to the ground.
"My goodness!"
Sheng Ning had never received such a grand gesture before, and was so frightened that he jumped three feet high on the spot.
She grabbed Miss Zhao and quickly helped her to get up.
Just as she pulled the person up, she found many family members of the girls and children who had been arrested that day standing in the crowd.
Upon seeing that Miss Zhao recognized Sheng Ning, they all realized what was happening and immediately knelt down to kowtow and thank her.
Sheng Ning had never seen such a scene before, and her inner voice was screaming wildly.
She widened her eyes and ran to the crowd, helping each person up.
"Cultivators should naturally have the well-being of all living beings in their hearts and strive to save the world. My act of saving people is merely a small matter; it's not as powerful as you all claim..."
It's become a habit for me and my senior classmates to tease each other on a daily basis.
The scene was so serious that Sheng Ning's palms were sweating with nervousness.
"Everyone, get up quickly! If you don't get up, I'm going to kowtow to you. Just consider it me doing a good deed, okay? You don't need to do such a big bow."
Sheng Ning had just helped an elderly person up when another elderly person knelt down.
She raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, looking like she was about to cry, and spoke to the two spirit beasts perched on her shoulders.
"I will never play whack-a-mole again."
She shouldn't have been lazy and stopped reading the "Thirty Days to Advance in Talisman Cultivation" mental cultivation manual that her fourth senior brother gave her.
If she hadn't been lazy, she might have already learned the Face-Changing Talisman and stood here looking different, instead of being recognized even while wearing a veil.
Headache.
This is such a headache.
Raising his hand to gently touch his forehead, Sheng Ning suddenly knelt down in front of everyone.
"Everyone, if you are truly grateful to me, please send any children with cultivation talent to the Invincible Sect when they recruit students in the future."
"Although the Invincible Sect is small, every disciple is dedicated and responsible, and will certainly not let you down. On behalf of the Invincible Sect, I thank you all."
Sheng Ning's kneeling really startled everyone.
There's no such thing as a savior kneeling before the person they saved.
Seeing Sheng Ning recruiting students here, everyone nodded their heads vigorously.
Some of them stepped forward to help Sheng Ning up, repeatedly expressing their gratitude.
At this moment, Sheng Ning felt as if she were in a hot spring, her whole body enveloped in warmth.
At this moment, the five spiritual roots within her body also emitted light.
As the light gradually faded, only a thin layer of fluorescence remained on it.
However, all these changes were too minor for Sheng Ning to notice.
She finally managed to squeeze out of the crowd, quickly stuck a speed-up talisman on herself, and rushed towards Chang Le Fang.
They were afraid that if they ran too slowly, they would be overtaken.
She really didn't want to do the thing of kowtowing and bowing to heaven and earth anymore!
As soon as Miss Zhao saw Sheng Ning's figure disappear into the crowd, she was about to ask a question when she felt a weight on her waist.
She looked down and saw a large bag hanging from her waist.
When she opened it, she was almost dazzled by the countless spirit stones inside.
There was also a note at the opening of the bag.
Even though she had never seen Sheng Ning's handwriting, she could still recognize that the note was left by Sheng Ning from the tone and style of his actions.
"Thank you so much, Miss Zhao, for distributing these spirit stones to the displaced elderly and children!"
Finally, Sheng Ning drew a small pistol at the end of the paper.
Miss Zhao had never seen a gun before, but even so, she silently put the note into her pocket.
She looked up with a worried expression in the direction of Chang Le Fang, then turned away from the crowd and walked towards the dilapidated temple outside the city that sheltered homeless elderly people and children.
-
After shaking off the enthusiastic people, Sheng Ning finally stopped at the entrance of Chang Le Fang.
She had just lost her veil in the crowd.
At that moment, all I could do was buy a red mask from a street vendor and put it on.
Dressed in white with a red mask, Sheng Ning wore a high ponytail. If it weren't for the marks on her chest, people would only think she was a rich young master who had just run away from home.
She glanced at Bai Ze beside her, then looked up at the massive thugs at the entrance of Chang Le Fang.
"Brother, are kids allowed in gambling dens?"
When the thug heard Sheng Ning speaking to him, he first looked down at Sheng Ning, whom he could strangle with one hand, and then looked down at Bai Ze, whom he could crush with one foot.
"Don't even mention the kids, you can't come in either."
Sheng Ning's eyes widened instantly. "Why? Are you discriminating against me?"
As a well-behaved child, Sheng Ning had never seen what a gambling den looked like.
Right now, she just wants to go inside and see what's inside that's so attractive.
Just now, when she was standing with Miss Zhao, she heard Miss Zhao whisper in her ear, "There are strange things in Chang Le Fang."
This statement made her even more interested in Chang Le Fang.
She had only just reached the door when she was stopped.
There's an old saying, isn't there?
He died before achieving his goal?
Sheng Ning took out two high-grade spirit stones from his pocket, opened his palm, and said, "Let us in."
The thugs' eyes widened when they saw the high-grade spirit stone.
There are also wealthy people in Youyun City.
But this was the first time the thug in Chang Le Fang had ever seen someone so capable of bribing a servant with two high-grade spirit stones.
He was a Qi Refining stage cultivator, and seeing that Sheng Ning and the other person had no spiritual power, he kindly reminded them before letting them in.
"Just have some fun outside, don't go inside."
If he hadn't said that, things might have been fine; Sheng Ning might have just gone around in circles outside.
But he told Sheng Ning not to go into the casino, and the latter immediately became interested and pulled Bai Ze into the casino.
Chang Le Fang has never closed at night; it does business both day and night.
Many gamblers will stay here for three to five days until their pockets are empty, at which point they will be thrown out of the casino by thugs while cursing.
The casino was bustling with noise.
Sheng Ning led Bai Ze around the gambler who had no sense of right and left, looking like a gambler whose energy had been completely drained.
"Qi Refining, Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Foundation Establishment... Golden Core?"
"A Golden Core cultivator actually exists in such a small casino. Miss Zhao is right, this place is indeed extraordinary."
Sheng Ning looked at each of the casino dealers one by one, and finally her gaze fell on the corner table where there were only a few people.
The other party is very sensitive.
As she turned her gaze away, the other person turned their head and their eyes met.
Standing beside her, Bai Ze's voice was icy, "It's more than just not simple; there's also demonic energy here."
