Chapter 214: 214: Must Cause Trouble
He sighed, shaking his head, “Fatty, the first rule of survival is to back down when you must.”
“Trying to act tough in such situations isn’t bravery, it’s courting death.”
“However, sometimes, regardless of how brutal the situation, you can’t back down or you would lose your pride, do you understand?”
AnRan nodded, with residual fear, and asked, “But Big Brother, I’ve noticed your enemies are getting more terrifying. Big Shots from the Tribulation period have even appeared. What kind of trouble did you get yourself into?”
“Who the fuck do I ask if you’re asking me?”
Jiang Xiaobai’s face was full of dismay, “What’s a surprise? Ah, this must definitely be a surprise!”
“What the hell is all this?”
Even though he didn’t enjoy fighting, it was okay.
Jiang Xiaobai had already tampered with those elixirs, there was a special force in them. Harmless and undetectable to others.
However, it was infused with Jiang Xiaobai’s mental energy, allowing him to sense the location of these elixirs at all times.
This trick was originally recorded in Elixir Refining Techniques by Laojun to prevent precious elixirs from being stolen and resulting in losses. It was primarily used for locating elixirs.
But now Jiang Xiaobai was using it for this purpose, truly maximizing its use.
“Don’t worry, I will know these guys’ whereabouts within a month, they won’t pose a threat to us.” Jiang Xiaobai said, his gaze falling on the people around him.
Those who kill, are destined to be killed.
If you’ve chosen this lifestyle, you better be prepared to lose your life.
Jiang Xiaobai was never a compassionate person. These people were no different from those guys from before. They were relentlessly coming after Jiang Xiaobai’s life.
So, they can’t be spared.
Everyone kneeled and begged for mercy, but it was futile. Jiang Xiaobai easily slaughtered them all. Then he endured the foul smell and nausea, tidied up all the loot and swiftly made his escape.
God, it was absolutely disgusting.
Inside a rather secluded small cave, Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan had already divided up all the spoils.
Including the loot they’d cheekily scavenged before, they had obtained nearly three hundred million top-quality spirit stones in total.
Even though they killed many people, they were all lowly commoners, and didn’t have much money.
Jiang Xiaobai later took all the treasures to feed the two big fellows in his storage space due to their need for the treasures’ spiritual energy. He only left one hundred million top-quality spirit stones for his own enhancement in cultivation.
However, AnRan seemed indifferent, after he had experienced these few incidents, two hundred million top-quality spiritual stones seemed insignificant to him.
After finishing his lamb leg, AnRan picked his teeth and remarked casually, “Boss, these people are really poor. We’ve killed so many, obtained almost three hundred storage rings, and this is all the money they had, it’s really not interesting.”
“When are we gonna stir up some trouble again? This time we should specifically target the disciples of major powers, the Four Sects and Five
Mountains, or even Wuhai Academy is fine.”
AnRan, this money-grubber, felt like he was drowning in a sea of money. Hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but feel helpless.
He slapped AnRan on the head.
“What are you thinking about? Is it you who’s gone crazy or this world? Did you forget how we were chased till we shit and pissed ourselves before?” Jiang Xiaobai casually remarked.
AnRan’s face turned pale instantly. Upon retrospection, he indeed found it to be true.
While they had made significant gains during this period, they’d been hunted many times.
And those chasing them were either superior warriors or they were chased by hundreds of people, it really was quite disastrous.
“We survived by luck a few times and yet here you are talking about stirring up trouble again, ” Jiang Xiaobai continued, slapping AnRan’s head disapprovingly, “Do you really think you’re invincible?”
“Haven’t you advanced in your cultivation after all this time?”
At this, AnRan held his head and crouched inside the cave, not daring to utter a sound.
Although his cultivation level hadn’t changed, his strength had improved significantly. He can take on an opponent at the early stage of Transcendence in a one-on-one fight and can even go toe-to-toe against someone in the middle Transcendence stage, with an equal chance of winning or losing.
“Isn’t it that, I’m considering making a major advancement in the Mad Demon
Secret Land. If I get lucky in the Mad Demon Secret Land, my cultivation speed is incredibly fast and likewise, the result is outstanding.”
“Are you stupid?”
Jiang Xiaobai glared at the fatty, “Isn’t that what everyone wants? But the question is, can you get in? The outer Mad Demon Valley isn’t something you can deal with. Even if you get in by fluke, there are freakishly talented people inside. How are you going to fight with them with your strength?”
AnRan remained silent, and curled up on the ground, holding his head, contemplating over his life.
A few moments later, Jiang Xiaobai spoke again, “In the remaining time, you’d better advance to the Transcendence period, otherwise it’ll be disgraceful when we are outside.”
“Jiang Xiaobai, who calls the wind and summons the rain, has a follower who is so weak? Let me tell you, if my brothers find out, they would probably laugh me to death.”
AnRan could only nod in agreement, “Don’t worry, boss. My cultivation state has been loosening before we came out, and these days following you around and stirring up trouble have improved my strength a lot. I could have broken through earlier, but I always held myself back.”
“Fine, since it’s like this, I, as your boss, will do you a big favor.”
Jiang Xiaobai said as he tossed over a pill. It wasn’t anything special, it only had the effect of helping Fatty move up another level after his breakthrough.
When AnRan learnt the effect of the pill, he was instantly stunned. For a moment, tears welled up in AnRan’s eyes and his face filled with excitement.
“Sob sob… Boss, you are so kind to me. Not even my father treated me so well since I was a child!”
“Get lost, get lost, get lost, you’re being melodramatic, just like a damsel.”
Jiang Xiaobai contemptuously said, “But don’t cultivate for now. Just when we were being chased, I heard about some news that Wuhai Academy is holding a banquet tonight to entertain guests from all directions.”
“Many high-profile figures will be there and it will be quite lively.”
The moment AnRan heard Jiang Xiaobai speak like this, his eyes lit up with anticipation.
He naturally understood what his boss meant.
This was going to stir up some trouble!
Jiang Xiaobai laughed coldly, “We have indeed suffered considerably from being chased these few days and all this is related to that Wuhai Academy. This time, we naturally can’t let it go.”
“Pack your things and tonight we’re heading to Mad Demon City. After camping out for a few days, I truly miss the taste of exotic delicacies..”
