Liu Yuan pushed away the crowd in front of him and strode out.
Such a countercurrent action naturally attracted the attention of many people.
However, most people’s attention was still on the spirit stones. Although it was a little strange, they did not pay much attention to this matter.
“This won’t do. I need to create a bigger mess.”
Liu Yuan thought this in his heart and deliberately increased his strength. When he pushed the person sideways, he used a little strength and pushed away a brother who looked very irritable.
He looked like a physical cultivator with big shoulders, a round waist, and a fierce face.
The old man immediately looked fiercely. “What are you looking at? You want to cut the queue?”
He narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists as he looked at the guy in front of him who looked like a pretty boy.
“Move! Who wants to cut the queue? I’m going out, you’re blocking my way.”
Liu Yuan glared at the man with an expression of ‘what’s wrong with you?’
At first, the other party was angry, but then he was stunned and suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. “What did you say? You’re going out?”
Liu Yuan continued to move forward, glanced at him, and snorted coldly, “I’m in a hurry to bring my sister to Yuelai Inn. If I’m late, it’ll be full. Is there a problem?”
“…?” Gu Chang, the ‘younger sister’, was confused.
The man was dumbfounded and said in disbelief, “Just to go to a run-down Inn, you don’t even want 50 spirit stones for free. Are you out of your mind?”
Liu Yuan stopped in his tracks and said coldly, “We cultivators pursue the Great Dao. We have the Dao in our hearts. Who cares about those 50 spirit stones?”
The main point was to show the dignity and backbone of a poor cultivator at the bottom.
Although he really did not care… The array in his sleeve still stored the 3,500 or so spirit stones he got from the Water Moon Dock and the Xuanwu Secret Treasure.
Among the wandering cultivators without any sects, Liu Yuan was definitely considered a local tycoon.
At this moment, this mortal who relied on a woman to reach the peak of his life still had to pretend to be a poor Immortal cultivator at the bottom. It was really immoral.
“Oh, a low-level sect’s monthly income from the spiritual vein is only 300 spiritual stones. 50 spiritual stones is equivalent to one-sixth of the income. You can buy a high-quality spirit tool below the Core Formation stage with that. A Foundation Establishment stage cultivator nearby was also attracted over.”
He laughed and said, “Kid, I don’t think you have much money. Your sword looks good. I’m afraid that’s all your savings. You still want to pursue the Great Dao? Do you want to learn it and participate in the competition so that you can be a fool who almost starved to death on the street?”
“That’s right, I’ve already been through it. A hothead like you only needed the protection of your elders in the past and no pressure. You’ve only been in the sect for a short time. When you experience it in the future, you’ll know how to cherish the opportunity now.”
Someone else chimed in, “Sigh, young people are so insensible. They look talented, but why are they so stubborn? The 50 spirit stones are right in front of them.”
One by one, a small group of people immediately began to dissuade Liu Yuan or ridicule him. The people around also looked over.
But at the same time, the maidservant named Xiu’er also began to notice the movement here. Her eyes suddenly became sharp, and it was obvious that she had received an order to pay attention to something.
Alright, the atmosphere was in place.
Now was the best time. The riot had already started, and Ye Cike had not yet said that he would start a fight in someone else’s territory without confirmation. Therefore, Liu Yuan did not want to leave now. He wanted to incite others to leave with him!
What can you do to me when I’m walking with the crowd?
Hahahahaha!
Liu Yuan almost laughed out loud at his own wit. With a trace of anger on his face, he sneered and said, “May I ask everyone, is your dignity only worth these few spirit stones?!”
The opening speech had to be heart-wrenching.
Liu Yuan lived in the age of the internet and had more or less been a keyboard warrior many times. He was very skilled at starting a topic. He continued, “Just now, I heard a lot of people in the crowd being dissatisfied. Some said it was unfair, and some felt that they had been in line for such a long time, but now they were cut in line. It’s you, you, and you. Do you all hate the special privileges of the big sects and aristocratic families so much? I don’t think so. Aren’t you all praising them now? I’m not saying anything bad about them, but the actions of the Xuanyin family were undoubtedly out of goodwill. What I want to say is that you are all numbed and unkind!”
The image of a young cultivator full of passion and indignation came to life on the paper.
“Umm…”
Hesitation flashed across the irascible elder brother’s face. He had indeed been one of the people who quietly criticized the Xuanyin family for being overbearing. Now, he stopped in his tracks and could not move forward anymore, because he felt a little embarrassed.
He could not just admit that he had no dignity in public, right?
“That’s right. 50 spirit stones isn’t something I have to take. It’s a little embarrassing to go back on my words now. Forget it, I’m not taking it.”
This was an honest man.
“I just remembered that my family still hasn’t confiscated my clothes, so I’ll take my leave first. Eh, that, take my talisman and see if you can get it. The Xuanyin family is very powerful, so they must have already memorized everyone present.”
This was a wily old fox.
In short, people began to walk out in groups of two or three, giving up on the spirit stones.
Some of the younger ones, who were not short of money to begin with, were already dissatisfied. 50 spirit stones was not enough to shut them up, but now they resonated with each other.
“That’s right, that’s right. It’s not that I don’t think the Xuanyin family is good, but it’s a bit of a waste to compensate some people with spirit stones…”
“It’s only 50 spirit stones. It’s no different from swallowing one’s anger. I’m leaving!”
However, this was only a small portion. Most of the people were still in line. They pouted at the people who had left, secretly calling them fools.
Liu Yuan revealed a smile as if he had planned it all out and followed the crowd in a relaxed and happy manner.
You have your own plans, I have my own.
“Well said, Little Brother! I’m the head disciple of Heart Sword Sect, Cui Ting. Forgive me for being blunt, but these aristocratic families are very snobbish because they’re trying to control their bloodline inheritance. First, they cut the queue in advance, and then they paid a lot of money to win people’s hearts. It’s really despicable!”
A white-robed man with a sword stood out and said loudly to the surrounding people. His expression was quite indignant.
This was not an act of anger, but a real one.
Liu Yuan, “…???!!!
Cui Ting?
Liu Yuan’s eyes widened.
Wait a minute, Little Brother, you’re not dead yet, aren’t you? why are you here?
Cui Ting continued, “I know that some of you are afraid of the power of the great clans, but it doesn’t matter. I, Cui Ting, am the next Sect Master of the Heart Sword Sect. In terms of status and strength, I’m not bad, but I will never do such a domineering thing! Today, on behalf of all of you, I demand an apology from the Xuanyin family and not just 50 fifty spiritual stones as compensation!”
F*ck, this Little Brother is really a friend of justice! He was like Mother Theresa!
Liu Yuan was dumbfounded as he looked at Cui Ting, who was waving his hands in an impassioned manner.
