Chapter 15: I have to find a way to get some money
After learning what happened from Senior Sister An, Ling Yunpo's mind also calmed down.
The matter itself is not complicated: this month, the monthly money due to Qingluofeng was changed from a medium-grade spiritual stone to a low-grade spiritual stone by Zhengshitang for some unknown reason.
As currencies, the two are basically equivalent.
But as a casting material for the Spirit Gathering Array, low-grade spiritual stones are far inferior to mid-grade spiritual stones.
So An Zhisu went to the political hall with his sword in hand and asked why the monthly money was being deducted in such a disguised manner.
As a result, he was challenged by Senior Brother Shi from Zhengshitang in the name of offending Zhengshitang.
What needs to be explained here is that the Qing sect in Shushan advocates communication with swords, and people of the same rank can challenge each other and learn swordsmanship.
If the challenged person wants to refuse the challenge, he needs to pay spiritual stones to the faction as punishment.
As the same restriction, if the challenged person accidentally kills the challenger in the competition, he does not need to be punished.
An Zhisu was unprepared for this competition, because she had already reached the level of Huafu level and reached the level of golden elixir. There was really no one at the same level who could be her opponent.
Unexpectedly, during the competition, the opponent used some kind of secret method to forcibly improve his cultivation, thus briefly possessing the strength of the "fake elixir", and then seriously injured the senior sister who was caught off guard.
"What a Shi Ziming!" Ling Yunpo was furious, "He actually plotted against senior sister like this. I, Ling Yunpo, will definitely not break up with him!"
[Unyielding character, the synchronization rate has increased, currently 81%.]
"Shut up, Jing! I was serious just now, not just to increase the synchronization value!" Ling Yunpo gritted his teeth in his heart.
"Don't take it to heart, junior brother." An Zhisu shook his head, "Shi Ziming is dead."
Ling Yunpo:………………
The cultivation level of the co-author of someone else's "fake elixir" is a big level ahead of yours, but he can still be beaten by you?
This is still something we didn’t know beforehand. If you, senior sister, had been prepared in advance, would this fight have been unscathed?
That’s outrageous, senior sister! Your strength is outrageous!
"It's a bargain, that guy." Ling Yunpo sneered, "If not, I will come to the door with a three-foot sword and let that stone know how powerful it is!"
"He is at the Huafu level and you are at the Qi refining level. How can you challenge him?" An Zhisu shook his head with a smile.
"Then I will catch his junior brother and challenge him!" Ling Yunpo said angrily, "No matter how he hurts senior sister, I will pay him back to his junior brother in full... No, ten times as much!"
"That's well said." An Zhisu said with approval, "As a swordsman, I must have such drive. If I want to grudge my enemies, I will kill anyone who stands in my way, let alone gods and demons, with one sword!"
As she spoke, she sighed again:
"But don't be too impulsive. After all, this monthly money problem cannot be solved after all."
Ling Yunpo was also speechless.
Competition is one thing, but monthly money is another.
The elder in charge of the political affairs hall is at the Nascent Soul realm. It is impossible for Senior Sister An to threaten other elders with a sword.
Even if this matter was just Shi Ziming's arrogant opinion at first, after Senior Sister An killed Shi Ziming, it would be even less possible for the Political Hall to change the monthly payment.
Otherwise, the outside world will think that it was An Zhisu who killed Zhengshitang and forcefully forced the elders to readjust the monthly payment. How can Zhengshitang survive in Shushan?
Is the Yuanying elder in charge shameless?
Thinking of this, Ling Yunpo also felt puzzled.
The bad thing is that the cheap master Su Jian can't come out of seclusion!
It is not that there are no rules in Shushan, but rules are not laws after all. When encountering many mistakes and omissions, we can only rely on the teachers to coordinate.
Now that there is no teacher in Qingluo Peak, once you encounter evil people who take advantage of the rules, wouldn't you just be like dough for anyone to knead?
It's no wonder that Senior Sister An has to deal with painful blows every time she competes. If she can't establish her authority, I'm afraid I won't be able to defend Qingluo Peak for a day!
"Junior brother, don't worry." An Zhisu said with a smile, "Master left some belongings in the wing before going into seclusion. I will take them to the market outside and sell them in exchange for spiritual stones. This will not affect our practice."
"Senior sister, this is not a long-term solution after all." Ling Yunpo said in a low voice.
"Yes, I will find a way." An Zhisu said seriously.
………………
When it comes to cultivation, Ling Yunpo actually has no shortage of spiritual stones.
Because Qiuchangtian is over there in Kunlun, as a direct disciple of Master Ziwei and the current leader, the cultivation resources he gets every month are very rich.
Of course, the spirit stones Qiu Changtian received from the Kunlun Sect must be put into the Spirit Gathering Formation in Jinling and cannot be given directly to Ling Yunpo, so that Senior Sister An can feel at ease.
Otherwise, when the junior brothers and sisters see that the number of spirit stones in the spirit gathering array is wrong, problems will arise.
"Speaking of which," Kunlun Jing suddenly said in his mind, "Do you like this Senior Sister An?"
"Yes." Ling Yunpo admitted frankly, "My senior sister is beautiful, sweet-tempered, and kind-hearted. She takes good care of me. Isn't it normal for me to like my senior sister?"
"What about Xu Yinglian?" Kunlun Jing was silent for a while and asked again.
Ling Yunpo was silent for a long time before he spoke:
"Ajing."
"What's wrong?"
"The sky is actually colorless. It doesn't deceive you, it's just your own eyes that deceive yourself."
"……What's the meaning?"
"The person who made a Taoist engagement with Xu Yinglian is Qiu Changtian of the Kunlun Taiqing Sect. What does it have to do with me, Lingyun Po of Shushan?"
Kunlun Mirror:………………
It has the urge to burst on the spot.
Ling Yunpo's expression remained unchanged and he continued:
"There is no truth or lies in this world, only facts that seem to exist."
"However, everyone in this world will only live by mistaking the 'facts' that are beneficial to them as reality."
"Because if you don't do this, there is no other reason to live."
"But in fact, for all living beings occupying most of the world."
"The 'facts' that cannot be used to affirm oneself are all reality."
"I am neither Qiu Changtian nor Lingyun Po."
"I am the savior of the world, and I am the man of destiny who wants to collect all the fragments of the Sky-Mending Stone to completely wipe out the coming Age of Ending Law."
"Under such heavy pressure, I must pursue a higher existence by any means necessary."
"We have gathered the strengths of all the sects, mastered all the methods of each sect, and left everyone behind."
"Until we are completely established on these nine heavens!"
Kunlun Mirror was speechless by him.
Well, this is basically the case for cultivators anyway. It is understandable to pursue great power within oneself.
"Then are you going back to Kunlun now?"
"Well, let's read the file." Ling Yunpo nodded and said.
[Countdown to world destruction: one thousand years.]
【Please hurry up and look for the Sky Mending Stone.】
Kunlun Mirror Machine said:
[Point 1: Kunlun Taiqing Sect, Jinling Cave.]
[Character identity: Qiu Changtian.]
[Covered by the Mirror Flower and Water Moon template, traveling through time and space.]
On the stone bed in his cave, Qiu Changtian suddenly opened his eyes.
It was still night outside at this time, and the time remained after Qiu Changtian finished studying Taoism and returned from Yuxu Palace with Xu Yinglian.
Qiu Changtian stepped out of the cave, looked at the Milky Way and the brilliant stars in the sky, and couldn't help but sigh.
The way of spiritual practice is to have wealth and wealth, and it is absolutely impossible to do without wealth.
...Let's find a way to get some money for Ling Yunpo.
