Becoming evil makes you ten times stronger, but becoming a demon gives you hundredfold strength-Chapter 173 - 160: Deceiving Both Sides

Meng Yu had never imagined that the Western Wastes harbored so many rare and exotic beasts living such pitiable lives.

Take the Rainbow Pheasant, for example. In the Immortal Sect, it would be a superstar that attracted everyone’s attention. It wouldn’t need to lay eggs or pluck feathers, because with its out-of-this-world beauty and animal protection laws, it could live very well.

Of course, its eggs and feathers, if brought to the Immortal Sect, would be worth far more than Black Iron Gold.

When those demon beasts came calling, although they brought modest gifts, Meng Yu’s eyes practically bulged at the sight. Furs, inner cores, and even their own tails!

Bai, a real social recluse, wouldn’t see anyone he didn’t know, so those who did know him and came calling must be pretty decent folks. They might look poor, but they were certainly no slouches in a fight.

Apart from coveting their bodies, if Meng Yu hadn’t been unable to take living people to the Immortal Sect, he might have started recruiting a team right there for a robbery in the Immortal Sect.

Life-death contracts, soul curses, the Heavenly Demon Seal... there were many ways to ensure subordinates were under control. Meng Yu could have devised a plan for these people to rob without ever learning about the Immortal Sect’s secrets. They would simply follow Meng Yu to rob some major power or another.

However, even if he couldn’t form a robbery squad there, Meng Yu still felt it was quite useful to ingratiate himself with these people.

Money was meant to be spent. Often, having money doesn’t guarantee you’ll meet many people. The reputation of the Jade Rabbit Family brought them here, so why not become friends with everyone?

The Black Iron Gold and Ash Immortal Silver robbed from the Immortal Sect were worth ten times as much here. And as poor as they were, they still had Spirit Stones in their possession! Which, when taken back to the Immortal Sect, increased in value tenfold again.

These people could even form a super power.

Of course, what Meng Yu told Qian Qian was,

"If I run out of money, I’ll just rob another stash. Last time I had no experience and chose a tough target. I went to the mines, where there were lots of people. Next time, I’ll target shops, banks and the like. I’m invincible in the Qi Refinement Realm, so once I disguise myself and rob them, I’ll skip town. Who could catch me? Besides, I can use Void Shifting to escape at any time without any danger, right?"

In Meng Yu’s hands was an IOU, a debt slip left by Qian Qian’s mother. They hadn’t come to collect the debt before, but now they did, wouldn’t it be awkward not to repay it?

Their family had fallen on hard times, leaving just a widow and orphan struggling for survival, eagerly awaiting that money. Just look at how badly they were crying.

"I’ve still got half a year to prepare for the Changdong Star business. Meanwhile, there’s enough time for me to get my hands on more money. I’ll try not to kill anyone. As for the losses suffered by the businesses, don’t worry, they’re all insured. The insurance companies are owned by the Immortal Sect. Consider it the Immortal Sect paying your wages for the past million years..."

If Meng Yu had a strict teacher, they might have slapped his bottom.

If he had a kind teacher, they would have lectured him on morality.

But his current teacher, a rabbit not good with words and prone to tears, what could she do?

And Meng Yu wasn’t worried about her crying herself sick; she was a Golden Core Master, after all.

"Stop crying, okay?"

He held the remorseful rabbit close. If he had done this before, the rabbit would have kicked him away, but now, she was just very nervous and didn’t resist.

"You’ve seen it yourself, some of your friends, those who’ve helped you, they all need Spirit Stones. That hen would probably be simmered in soy sauce if you hadn’t shown up. And those lynxes, crying so tragically.

I’m not just robbing; I’m taking from the rich to give to the poor. Star Industrial Company wronged me, so of course I must retaliate. It just so happens to coincide with your troubles. I’m not killing anyone. How is it wrong for me to rob them?

I avenge myself, and you get to help them. Isn’t that great?

Don’t worry, this is just me lending you money. It’s my tuition fee to you as my mentor. I won’t force you to do anything. Come on, tell me about Formations..."

Now that he could hold the rabbit in his arms, Meng Yu made sure to relish the moment.

Her scent was fresh, her soft body was comforting to hold, not to mention, as she blushed and wriggled, her ears kept brushing against Meng Yu’s chin.

"I..."

The white-haired, red-eyed rabbit ancestress seemed to want to say something but failed to find the words.

Well, Meng Yu had never imagined he would be holding a Golden Core Master in his arms, being so intimate.

Even if her intimacy was aimed at persuading him not to take risks, that he could do so and so...

Several months passed just like that. When the Black Iron Gold was nearly gone, and the rabbit made Meng Yu promise never to rob again and had closed their mountain gate, he suddenly disappeared again.

Then, after three hours, Meng Yu returned once more.

This time, though he bore no injuries, he seemed very tired—after all, he needed to look the part.

"Don’t worry, master, we really have money now."

This time, it was five full Storage Bags, filled with all sorts of materials.

He didn’t even explain to the rabbit how leisurely he had been. He glanced at the rabbit, whose eyes were red from crying, and realized he... was really a lousy person.
