Chapter 44: Cheap Master (First Update)

  Wang Meng laughed and said, "Grandma's, the sky-high price is returned on the spot, this kind of big-headed injustice cannot be tolerated, even Zhang Xiaopang can't bear it."

  "No problem at all! What's the big deal? I have a lot of questions here!" Zhou Feng also wondered what was going on, and he had heard that it wasn't easy for the younger disciples to cultivate, so he felt a bit too rude.

  Wang Meng took one look at the other person's expression and knew he was at a disadvantage. Damn it, business is about letting the other party set the price, but being looked down upon by Zhang Xiaopang was not acceptable. However, once words were spoken, they couldn't be taken back, and regretting them would be a matter of poor character.

  "Because only the combination of Fish Scale Grass and Snow Ginseng can maintain the efficacy of the inner elixir while also dispelling evil energy, unless it's a demonic cultivation, evil energy is harmful to alchemy."

  Wang Meng said, Zhou Feng on the side nodded desperately, and it can be seen that this point is a master.

  "Why one fish scale grass and three pieces of snow ginseng?"

  "Of course it's just right, this is balance!" Wang Meng raised two fingers, and suddenly felt that the more problems this guy had, the better.

  "How did you know I was an alchemist?"

  "Are you going to eat it raw? Aren't you afraid of bursting to death!" Wang Meng raised three fingers.

  "Do you know what kind of pill I'm refining?" Zhou Feng had barely asked the question when he felt it was a bit unnecessary, although he didn't have a great concept of spiritual stones, but neither was he reckless.

  "It's probably something like Ling Xudan, except for this kind of thing that drives away demonic fire and heart fire, I don't think it would be used for this kind of yin evil thing, however..."

  Wang Meng raised four fingers.

  "But what's more, what?" This completely stunned Zhou Feng, just the name "Ling Xū Dān" was something that not many people could say.

  Wang Meng let out a sigh and raised one finger, "This thing has side effects, so it's better not to use it if possible."

  "Is this also a problem?" Zhou Feng was also stunned. Even someone without any concept would know the value of a mid-grade spirit stone.

  Seeing Wang Meng about to speak, Zhou Feng hastily waved his hand, "No, don't answer, this isn't the question."

  Wang Meng smiled and said, "Thirty pieces of mid-grade spirit stones, 1,500 contribution points. Please trouble Elder Zhou to deliver them as soon as possible."

  Zhou Feng wiped the sweat, scared to death, and only then reacted, thirty pieces of Ling Stone would not make him difficult, but no matter how rich he was, he couldn't afford Wang Meng's price of one piece per question.

  After seeing off Zhou Feng, Wang Meng couldn't help but smile. The Holy Temple still had such a dandy, and in fact, he had also encountered this kind of person during his long cultivation in his previous life. However, this type of person could only survive in the holy path, if they were to switch to demonic or evil paths, they would have been swallowed up without even leaving any residue.

  Thirty pieces of mid-grade spirit stone, even if Wang Meng's physique is difficult to deal with, breaking through the tenth layer is still very promising. The higher the grade of spirit stone, the more it needs, and it's always better to have more.

  The seventh-ranked difficulty task has been solved, and it also caused a stir in the Wind Cloud Pavilion. After all, this kind of task is rarely challenged by anyone, but when they saw that it was completed by Leigong Hall, everyone found it amusing and wondered if the elders had taken action to save face. No one took it seriously.

  What does it mean if such a task is completed with the requirement that the name can be hung out for glory, but this time there isn't?

  Ashamed, Leigongtang doesn't have anyone else who can make a good show of themselves.

  "Tianyi, someone in Leigong Hall has completed the task of Wind Thunder Roar." The Ming person said, indeed a bit worried, they had also considered this task before, but the snake demon was cunning and sinister, plus it was a wind and thunder attribute, too difficult to provoke so they gave up, didn't expect someone actually completed it.

  "It's definitely him!" Li Tianyi said calmly.

  "You're so sure? To deal with such a monster, you need a team. Leigong Hall doesn't have such a good team."

  "Perhaps he doesn't need to."

  "Senior brother, you say this is another kind of challenge for him?" Li Tian licked his lips, his eyes gleaming with excitement. Since he started cultivating, he had never looked forward to each day's cultivation like he did now.

  "It's hard to say, but Lingyintang is not afraid of anyone!" Ming Ren loved this younger brother more than anyone else, he regarded Lingyintang as his own home, and anyone who dared to provoke the honor of Lingyintang would be his enemy.

  "Senior brother, what is the sixth task?"

  Li Tianyi and Ming Ren exchanged a smile, they wanted to tell each other that Lingyintang was fearless no matter what form or method!

  Although Zhou Feng doesn't seem very reliable, he gets things done on time. Soon, Ma Tian'er sent over the payment.

  "Senior brother, you're too amazing! I've never seen Elder Zhou praise someone like that before." Ma Tian'er sat properly in the chair, not showing any signs of being affected by the shabby and dirty appearance of the grass hut.

  Wang Meng smiled, "Junior sister, sorry about that, I don't have much to entertain guests with here, just have some water." As he spoke, he poured a cup of water for Ma Tian'er. "That's Zhou Changlao showing favoritism to his junior."

  Ma Tian'er shook her head like a rattle drum, "Elder Zhou is the most straightforward elder in the general hall, although he's a good person, but when it comes to scolding people, he's really fierce."

  He got used to being called that way. Although Ma Tian'er should be his senior sister, Wang Meng accepted it calmly and felt good about being called "senior brother".

  "Junior sister seems to know a lot about the main hall." Wang Meng smiled slightly.

  Ma Tian'er felt a bit embarrassed, "Actually, it's nothing much, but Brother Shifu's skills are really admirable!"

  "I'm capable of it, haha, since my junior sister said so, then I'm capable of it. These five bucks are for my junior sister."

  Wang Meng took out two pieces of medium-grade spirit stone, which was extra, and with Zhou Feng's generosity, the spirit stones for the battle were finally complete.

  Ma Tian'er hastily shook her head, "This, I don't want it."

  "Silly girl, where did you get the idea that I'd let you call me 'brother' for nothing? Take this. Besides, the tournament is approaching, and you should focus on your training too. We can't let those people from Hengshan Hall look down on us."

  Wang Meng stuffed it into Ma Tian'er's hand without saying a word, and Ma Tian'er stared blankly at the Ling Stone in her hand, which seemed to still have Wang Meng's aura on it.

  "Thank you, senior brother."

  "Haha, we don't need to be polite with each other anymore. If anyone should thank the other, it's me thanking you. You think I didn't know that Leigong Pavilion doesn't allow credit?"

  Ma Xiang'er lightly bit her lip, "Didn't Brother Shifu say we don't need to be polite to each other?"

  "Also, haha, my mistake."

  After sending off Ma Tian'er, Wang Meng's mood was also good. In the world of cultivators, such simplicity is really rare. In the Holy Temple, Wang Meng felt a different atmosphere that was unlike anywhere else. Whether it was competition or mutual assistance, there was a different feeling that couldn't be put into words, but it was very enjoyable.

  There is still plenty of time before the final battle. He has done what he should have done, and how far Zhang Xiaojiang and Hu Jing can go depends on their own perseverance.

  "Stay home and watch the door, I'll go get some good food." Wang Meng patted Ling Xi's head.

  As soon as Wu Zhuanling heard that there was food, her eyes widened and she stared at Wang Meng, calling out to him several times.

  "Alright, alright, this time I'll buy some good ones. You're a strange guy, you don't learn the good things, but you pick up the bad habits quickly."
