Chapter 140 Ma Qi's Spirit Stone
Chen Wan'er raised her eyebrows, her expression showing a hint of unruliness.
He asked directly, "I wonder why the Second Elder left me here alone?"
Seeing her like this, the Second Elder immediately became furious and wished he could just storm out.
But then he changed his mind and thought about the purpose of his visit. He had to suppress his anger and force himself to calm down.
"Chen Wan'er, your cultivation speed is so astonishing, could it be that you have mastered some unique technique?"
The second elder stared at her closely, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
Chen Wan'er sneered in her heart. This old guy actually coveted her things so blatantly. He was really bold!
The corners of her mouth curled up with a hint of sarcasm, and she responded neither servilely nor arrogantly:
"Second Elder, this is my personal secret, I cannot tell you.
Besides, isn't my rapid cultivation speed due to my own exceptional talent? What does it have to do with the technique?"
The second elder felt as if his breath was stuck in his throat. Chen Wan'er was simply his nemesis.
Every word he uttered seemed to add fuel to his anger.
What's so talented that you have to brag about it all the time?
He suppressed his displeasure and spoke again:
"I'm not coveting your skills. To be honest, the Fourth Elder's time is approaching.
If his cultivation cannot break through to the Nascent Soul stage in a short period of time, he may die.
I want to ask you on his behalf how you were able to improve your cultivation so quickly in such a short period of time."
Seeing Chen Wan'er looking at him suspiciously, the Second Elder's heart tightened and he hurriedly explained:
"This is purely my personal opinion. The Fourth Elder is not aware of the inside story. Please do not make random assumptions about others."
"Oh, I didn't realize the Second Elder had such a kind heart to help others."
Chen Wan'er chuckled, her tone full of indifference.
"But what does this have to do with me?"
The Second Elder could no longer suppress his anger, and veins popped on his forehead:
"Chen Wan'er, it's a shame that the Fourth Elder always praises you behind your back, yet you remain so stubborn!
With your character, what does it matter how fast you cultivate?
You must know that the road of cultivation is long, and starting quickly does not mean you can go far!
Humph, you little brat, you are not worth considering!"
After saying this, the second elder flicked his sleeves and strode away without looking back.
Chen Wan'er looked at his back, confused: This old man, why does he curse at people when he just wants to talk?
What's even more strange is that even though I was so angry with him, he had no intention of killing me at all?
What kind of personality does this person have?
He is said to be calm, but he can easily become furious;
You could say he's a hot-tempered person who gets angry easily.
But even after being contradicted by me just now, he didn't even have the intention to kill me.
Chen Wan'er shook her head secretly, full of doubts. Forget it, she didn't want to think about him anymore, no matter what his plan was.
As for the Fourth Elder, his method of cultivation is not applicable to him.
There's really nothing I can do to help him, I can only silently wish him good luck in my heart.
When Chen Wan'er returned to the room, she saw that Ma Qi, who was supposed to move out, was still in the house with no signs of moving.
She understood in her heart that it seemed that Ma Qi was determined to compete with her to the end.
But this is also good, it suits her exactly. She wants to see what other tricks Ma Qi can come up with.
Then, she raised a faint smile at the corner of her mouth and said jokingly:
"Ma Qi, it's already so late, why haven't you gone to accompany your sponsor yet?"
When Ma Qi heard this, she did not jump up and down in anger as usual, but instead walked lightly to Chen Wan'er.
He softened his voice and said, "Chen Wan'er, I know I said the wrong thing this morning.
I'm really sorry and I'm here to apologize to you.
But...could you please stop mentioning those things about me? Those rumors are completely false."
As she spoke, she stretched out her fair and slender hand and handed over a storage bag.
Chen Wan'er remained calm, quietly scanned with her spiritual sense, and was secretly surprised.
Wow, this hush money is really a lot. I wonder who the financial backer behind her is.
She didn't show any emotion on her face, she took the storage bag carelessly and said with a generous smile:
"Okay, okay, it was all a misunderstanding before, I understand it in my heart."
Seeing that she accepted the storage bag so decisively, Ma Qi felt even more contempt for her.
Humph, she said before that she climbed into bed. Look at her aloof attitude, but when she saw the spirit stone, her eyes lit up.
He said he would take it back and he did it faster than anyone else. How hypocritical.
However, Maqi still had a sweet smile on her face, showing the deep love between sisters and the good wishes for everyone.
She whispered softly, "Wan'er, from now on in the Qianhuan Sect, we will be good sisters. We must help each other."
"Of course. From now on in Qianhuan Sect, you, Ma Qi, will be my, Chen Wan'er's, best friend."
Ma Qi responded readily, but secretly spitted in her heart. Who wants to be the best in the world as she said?
Apart from the fact that her cultivation speed is slightly faster, Chen Wan'er has no spirit stones and no resources.
He has very few connections and offends people all the time.
If you get close to her, you might get implicated one day.
"Wan'er, I'm planning to go out and buy some things. Do you want to come with me?"
Ma Qi smiled brightly, but there was a mystery in her eyes.
Chen Wan'er seemed unaware and just waved her hand lightly, a lazy look on her face.
"No, I'm a little tired and want to rest for a while."
She knew clearly in her heart that if she really followed him, Ma Qi's little plan would fail.
As early as when she saw Ma Qi's name in the system prompt, Chen Wan'er had already seen through her plan.
Since the other party wants to use spirit stones to paralyze her, fine, then she will go with the flow and take advantage of the situation.
Seeing Chen Wan'er actually lying down to rest, Ma Qi couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, feeling very proud.
Humph, just a few spirit stones and you can fool this girl.
In the final analysis, he is just a short-sighted person.
Thinking this, she walked out slowly.
After getting away from the Qianhuan Sect, Ma Qi quickly put on a mask and hurried towards the market.
Soon, he stepped into a teahouse and walked into one of the elegant rooms with familiarity.
Inside the room, a mysterious man in a black robe had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Ma Qi come in, he immediately asked:
"How's the situation? Did she accept the spirit stones?"
The voice was low and contained a hint of oppression.
Ma Qi nodded hurriedly, her face full of flattery and respect:
"Don't worry, sir. As soon as I showed her the spirit stone, her eyes widened. She accepted it without a word."
After saying this, he seemed to remember something and looked puzzled again:
"It's just... sir, don't we have to teach this girl a lesson?
Why did you give her so many spirit stones?"
The black-robed man looked at Ma Qi coldly with a cold look, and his words were full of displeasure:
"Humph, that spirit stone is her death warrant.
If you have the guts, go get it, and don't blame me for not warning you in advance."
When Ma Qi heard this, her heart trembled violently, and she instantly gave up the idea of greed for money.
Yes, no matter how many spirit stones you have, you still need life to spend them. There is no need to risk your life for these little things.
