Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 152 Pay Back the Money

Lin Jian and Chun Xue were standing at the bow of the flying boat, with a head forcibly squeezed in between them.

"It's so empty, why can't you bring me in?!" The girl with smooth hair was bright and beautiful. She stared at Lin Jian's face closely with an obsessed look in her eyes, chattering non-stop, "Where are you from? Where are you going now? What's wrong with taking me with you? I can grind the medicine for you when you refine the elixir, I can undress you when you sleep, and I can rub your back when you take a bath... I tell you, I've learned a lot of ways to serve people, and I guarantee that I can serve you comfortably."

Lin Jian looked at the saliva that was about to drip out of the other person's face and asked, "How about you stop drooling for a while?"

Hua Xiaodie quickly wiped the corner of her mouth, realizing she had been deceived. "I'm not! I didn't! Don't get me wrong, I'm not some bad person who's tempted by beauty."

"How about you tell me your ID number?"

Lin Jian crossed his arms and said, "Anyway, I won't say a word to you until you tell me your true purpose."

Hua Xiaodie was melancholic for a few breaths, then paused for a moment, "What about this sentence?"

"That doesn't count."

"What about the previous sentence?"

"The previous sentence doesn't count either."

Hua Xiaodie stared pitifully at the forest. Her big eyes blinked twice and then tears began to fall. "Young Master is ignoring me..."

Lin Jian really ignored her.

Cold violence! Absolute cold violence!

Hua Xiaodie pressed her eyelids and whispered softly, "My life is so miserable... When I was a child, I joined a sect, but the sect didn't want me. When I grew up, I found an alchemy master, but the master didn't want me either. Now I have no home and nowhere to go. I originally thought that you were a good person and would take me in..."

Hua Xiaodie raised her eyes carefully with lowered eyebrows, secretly observing the reactions of the two people and speaking intermittently, "But having a woman like me with no status and no background around might indeed have a certain impact on you. It's okay, sir. Xiaodie can live well on her own..."

Lin Jian and Chun Xue cracked melon seeds, spitting out the shells. "How much do you think you can trust her?"

Haruyuki frowned and thought for a moment, "I think half of what he said is true."

Lin Jian shook his head, "No! I think even the punctuation is fake."

"Then you have the final say."

Hua Xiaodie: “?”

How can there be such a heartless person in the world?
"Take care of me, take care of me, take care of me..." Hua Xiaodie began to shake Lin Jian's arm, "I'm not picky about food or bed, I sleep wherever I go and eat whatever I want. I'm easy to take care of."

"How about this..." Lin Jian suggested, looking at the increasingly large market below him, "Let's walk for half an incense stick. If you can still catch up with me, it means we are destined to meet. Otherwise, let's not meet again."

"No problem!" Hua Xiaodie raised her hand energetically, staring at Lin Jian seriously. "We can't go back on our word."

"Yes, it's packed."

"It's a deal!" Hua Xiaodie's eyes flashed with excitement.

How could a mere mortal in the Foundation Establishment Stage possibly run away from me?
The game has begun!

The forest and spring snow ran away as soon as they fell to the ground.

"You said she is in the Jindan stage? Is that true?" Lin Jian questioned.

"Although my cultivation is gone, my eyesight is still there."

"She's already in the Golden Core stage, and you still want us to run away right under her nose? Can we get away?"

"Hmph!" Chunxue pouted proudly. "I'm not very talented, but I've defeated a similar Jindan-stage warrior before."

Hua Xiaodie wandered around the huge market until dark and was dumbfounded.

"What about people?"

What about those two big, living people? How could a Jindan-stage cultivator like me lose track of them?

Humph! As expected, you are the one my master has chosen.

Man, you've managed to pique my interest.

……

Lin Jian and Chun Xue had already returned to Zhengyang Sect.

Lin Jian immediately checked to see if there was anything horrific outside the yard.

Every time I went out, the yard would be destroyed. Fortunately, this time, maybe the deadline has not yet come, so the yard has not been destroyed.

After returning, Lin Jian threw Chunxue into the yard and went to find the elder who taught him the skills immediately.

"Elder! Elder! I'm here to pay you back!"

Standing outside the elders' mansion, Lin Jian shouted at the top of his lungs.

The Chamber of Commerce President Zhou Xianda was very generous. Even when the Chamber of Commerce's finances were almost broken, he still gave 100,000 low-grade spirit stones.

Or maybe it's because these 100,000 low-grade spirit stones are not worth mentioning to the Chamber of Commerce, and it makes no difference whether they have it or not, so they are so straightforward.

Along with the spirit stones, there are also a lot of elixir materials left over from refining the Xuanpin Chanxin Dew.

I don’t know why Zhou Xianda was thinking this, but he also stuffed it in.

Lin Jian adheres to the principle of paying back the money as soon as he has it, otherwise he will feel uneasy.

The most important thing is that the original witness is gone, and Lin Jian can't just ask without asking, so he can only ask indirectly in other ways.

Hearing that he was here to repay the money, Chuan Gong happily opened the door, "Isn't this Junior Brother Lin? Long time no see, come in, come in, I just happened to brew a pot of spiritual tea, Junior Brother Lin, let's taste it together."

He took a sip of the spiritual tea in the forest and immediately felt the spiritual energy seeping into all his meridians.

Even the physical training that had been somewhat neglected recently seemed to have improved somewhat under the nourishment of this spiritual energy.

The third level of foundation building requires using true Qi to penetrate the bones and internal organs in order to build a golden body and jade bones. After that, the strength of the body will naturally approach the level of "semi-magical weapon", and even if it is suddenly attacked, it will have stronger vitality.

This step tests the coordination between the cultivator's true energy and body, and is no longer just a single qualification of spiritual roots.

Chuan Gong glanced at Lin Jian with a smile, "Sometimes, cultivation doesn't just rely on one's own talent and hard work, external help is also very important..."

He had heard that this nephew Lin was very poor...

He was so poor that it was almost unheard of that he bought any natural treasures for cultivation purposes.

My achievements today are entirely due to my own talent and hard work.

But when it reaches a certain level, when talent and hard work can no longer support a cultivator to advance faster, he must always consider other means.

He had been waiting for a similar opportunity to point this out, and now was the opportunity.

Lin Jian silently felt the changes in his body, nodded thoughtfully and said, "Elder, what you said is very true. I will pay attention to it when I return."

As he spoke, he pulled out a storage bag containing 16,000 low-grade spirit stones from his bosom and pushed it in front of the elder. "Elder, I would like to return all the spirit stones I borrowed last time. Please check them."

With a sweep of his spiritual consciousness, he found out the exact number of them.

He smiled and pushed the storage bag back. "Junior Brother Lin, why are you so polite? I've already told you that if it's not convenient for you, just keep it. As an elder, I don't need this little bit of spirit stones."

"What's more... Did Junior Brother Lin not hear what I just said?"
