Ten minutes later...
At a clothing shop in the marketplace that sold normal clothes at affordable prices, it was the shop that Chang-Yue chose herself.
"Brother, how does this dress look?" The sound of a cloth partition sliding open was followed by Chang-Yue's sweet voice, and her little figure stepped out to shoe Zheng-Fu the dress she wore.
"Great! It suits you very well, Little Angel. If you like it, take it. I'll buy all of them for you!" Zheng-Fu nodded and smiled happily at this little girl. Seeing her sweet smile made Zheng-Fu think whether if he and Fu-Er had a daughter, would she be as cute as Chang-Yue?
"All of them are beautiful, but I think three outfits would be enough. I don't want you to lose any more money for . Besides, I…"
"You silly! Didn't I tell you that if you like any of them, I'll buy them all for you?" Zheng-Fu saw the girl's worried expression, so he urged her to freely choose. The price of these clothes was about one Purple Heaven Crystal each, which was very cheap.
"But..."
"Master, I need all these clothes. Please wrap them up for !" Zheng-Fu didn't listen to the little girl and called to the shopkeeper to wrap up the clothes.
"All right, Young Master!" The middle-aged man who owned the store grinned when Zheng-Fu said he wanted all the clothes. There were a total of twenty outfits that Chang-Yue had tried on.
The shopkeeper soon walked back with a large bundle of cloth containing all the clothes.
"The total is twenty low-level Purple Heaven Crystals, Young Master!" The shopkeeper handed over the bundle and inford Zheng-Fu of the price.
"Here are twenty low-level Purple Heaven Crystals!" Zheng-Fu took the bundle and paid the shopkeeper.
"Thank you, Young Master, for shopping at our shop. Please co again next ti, sir!" Upon receiving the money, the shopkeeper's face was filled with a broad smile. He gladly invited Zheng-Fu to return.
"Mm!"
Finishing the errand, Zheng-Fu took Chang-Yue out of the shop. But just as they walked out, a commotion arose not far from where they were, and a large number of people had gathered to watch.
"Little Angel, let's go see what happened." Zheng-Fu noticed Chang-Yue's interest in the commotion and invited her to investigate.
"All right, Brother!"
"Old man, my Young Master endeavors to support your sale. Why didn't you sell it to him?" A skinny young man's sharp voice rang out as he scolded the elder in front of him.
"I really can't sell it to you. The price of one Purple Heaven Crystal is too low. This item is the last treasure of my clan. I can't sell it for the price of one Purple Heaven Crystal, sir!" The elder's pitiful, pleading voice rejected the young man.
Huh!
"I don't care if it's your clan's last treasure or not. My Young Master wants this item and will only buy it for one low-level Purple Heaven Crystal. You have to sell it!" The skinny young man ignored the elder's pleas and overbearingly demanded the elder sell the items laid on the old cloth—a thick golden book that looked very ancient.
"That elder is really pitiful. Unfortunately, he's run into Young Master Pu-Jin, a close friend of Young Master Huo-Jin from the Heaven-Burning Fla Clan. What a pity!"
"Don't speak out loud! Otherwise, you'll also run into trouble!"
"I know. I only pity that elder. That antique book seems very valuable. If it were sold to antique shops or collectors, it would cost at least two hundred low-level Purple Heaven Crystals or more. Instead, he's being forced to accept just one lump of the crystal. Really sad for him!"
"That's right. He should have gotten more than a hundred low-level Purple Heaven Crystals. But he's being forced to take just one. Really tragic!"
The onlookers criticized what was happening, pitying the elder. However, no one dared to intervene because the young man, Pu-Jin, was the second son of the leader of the Golden Sky Clan, a mid-level clan with good ties to the Heaven-Burning Fla Clan.
"What do you say, Old Man? If you don't sell, then don't say we're cruel!" The skinny man threatened the old man so that he would sell the book to him.
"Grandpa, I'm afraid. I'm afraid! Sob… sob…" At that mont, the cry of the old man's grandson, standing beside him, rang out.
Zheng-Fu and Chang-Yue, watching the situation, felt a deep sadness and sympathy for the old man. Another feeling arose within Zheng-Fu—a curiosity about the item the elder was selling.
"Brother, can you help them?" Chang-Yue could not bear it any longer and asked Zheng-Fu, in case Zheng-Fu could help the elder and his grandson.
"I understand your feelings, Chang-Yue. If I reach out to help them, they might be saved now, but in the future, the two of them might not survive. Because that young man definitely wouldn't let that elder and his grandson go!" Zheng-Fu imdiately turned to Chang-Yue, explaining what would happen if he helped the old man.
"Then, we have no other way to help him?" Chang-Yue still didn't give up and pleaded with Zheng-Fu again with her eyes, which were round and clear like kitten eyes.
Sigh!
"You know your look's going to kill !" Zheng-Fu could not help but sigh. Because of the pleading look from the girl, he could not refuse her at all. "All right, there's a way to help him. But we'll have to waste a little ti on this plan!" Actually, he had co up with a plan to help the elder as well. It was only that Zheng-Fu did not want to interfere right now.
"Yay! Brother is the kindest! Brother is the best!" Chang-Yue suddenly let out a joyful voice, causing everyone who watched the incident to turn to look at her, including Pu-Jin and his group.
"Wow! That little girl is so cute, I want her!" His eyes suddenly flared up when he saw Chang-Yue standing next to Zheng-Fu. It made the young man forget about the elder's item and turn his attention to the cute little girl instead.
It was not only the young man who thought so, but the n in his group thought the sa, including the surrounding people who turned to look at the little girl as well.
"Young Master, if you want her, I'll take care of this matter!" When the skinny young man saw what his young master wanted, his leg-licking skill was instantly activated. He offered to deal with this matter so he could get the young man's favor and get more rewards.
"Great! Go bring that little girl to . Bring her to , no matter what it causes!" The young man nodded with a satisfied smile.
"No problem, Young Master!"
When permission had been granted, the skinny young man did not hesitate and imdiately walked toward Zheng-Fu and Chang-Yue. The onlookers easily gave way.
"Hey you, my young master needs your sister. But I won't just take her for free. I'll give you one low-level Purple Heaven Crystal in exchange for your little sister, is that all right?" Standing in front of Zheng-Fu and Chang-Yue, the skinny young man imdiately began to express his need. He was very proud of being able to act like this without being afraid of anyone.
"You need my sister? And will give one low-level Purple Heaven Crystal in exchange for my sister? What fart are you blowing out? Huh, can you tell again?" At this ti, Zheng-Fu's expression was no longer as calm and smiling as before. His face beca even fiercer and more frightening. anwhile, an eerie psychic killing was released from his body.
Ah!
As soon as the skinny young man sensed Zheng-Fu's psychic killing, his expression turned pale. He sensed the dead shadow that was approaching from this psychic killing.
"Why is this psychic killing so terrifying? This is bad! He's a high-level cultivator!" Pu-Jin also felt Zheng-Fu's psychic killing. His smiling expression instantly turned to fear. He had experienced such terrible psychic killing from his father, who was a Heavenly Golden Core stage cultivator before. How could he, who was only at the sixth level of the Heavenly Root stage, cope with a cultivator of that level?
"I asked, what did you spit out of your rotten mouth just now? Huh!?" At this mont, Zheng-Fu was extrely angry. Not only was the psychic killing he unleashed terrifying, but his pressure caused the surrounding people's hands and limbs to tremble and beco weak. Even Heavenly Foundation Building stage cultivators could not help but sweat when exposed to his psychic killing and pressure.
"I… I… I was wrong, sir! I didn't an to do that. Master, please..."
Whooosh!
Booooooom!!!
It was not until the skinny young man could finish speaking that his face was slapped by Zheng-Fu's palm. Then his body floated back and collided with a tree so hard that he beca unconscious.
Ah!!!
"Just one slap to knock out the sixth level of the Heavenly Root stage cultivator!" One of Pu-Jin's underlings said in shock and fear.
The other followers were also frightened and shocked. Although there were people in the group with higher energy levels than the skinny young man, so feelings told them that this young man was extrely dangerous. Maybe he had strong energy at the Heavenly Golden Core stage?
"D… did… did you dare to hurt my people? Do you know who I am? I am…"
Woooooosh!!!
But before the young man could finish declaring who he was, Zheng-Fu's figure had suddenly disappeared from where he had stood. He dashed forward towards the young man. However, when Zheng-Fu was about to reach Pu-Jin, he sensed soone rushing toward him. This person was stronger and had a much higher energy level than him; therefore, Zheng-Fu had to step back a bit and stop first.
Thump!!!
"Who's that!?"
