My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death-Chapter 835 - 808 Little Tail _1
Ten Thousand Star Boat, Heavenly Zone.
Xu Fan had just finished answering a disciple's questions.
Zhou Kailing came up to him mysteriously.
"Master, as a disciple, I made some extra Immortal Jades in the Ancient Green World, and I've come especially to offer them to you." Zhou Kailing handed Xu Fan a Storage Bag.
"You made connections in the Ancient Green World?" Xu Fan was examining the bag in his hands. There were exactly 900 Immortal Jades inside, not more nor less.
"Master, your insights are remarkable. I did indeed sell divine abilities," explained Zhou Kailing with a laugh.
"While I was wandering around a major immortal city, the two chief sects in the city happened to be conducting their ten-yearly disciple competition. Both sides had substantial wagers, involving tens of thousands of Immortal Jades."
"I initially only intended to watch the spectacle and compare the divine abilities of the Ancient Green World with those of our Cultivation World."
"But while I was watching, I accidentally overheard that one sect had continuously lost eight times. They were offering lavish rewards for any solutions that would help them win against the other sect."
"Suddenly, I thought, wasn't this an opportunity to make money?"
"So, I sold that sect some of the simplest divine abilities for 900 Immortal Jades."
"And it helped that sect win the competition." Zhou Kailing was looking rather smug.
"Master, I have earned back the 900 Immortal Jades that you lost. Please, don't worry about it anymore," Zhou Kailing implored.
After hearing his favorite disciple's story, Xu Fan couldn't help but marvel.
"Without transaction, there can be no harm—"
As Xu Fan spoke, he handed back the bag filled with Immortal Jades to Zhou Kailing.
"You are throwing a copper penny into a golden basin. Do you think your master needs these Immortal Jades of yours?"
"Furthermore, your recent actions are a bit excessive, making it difficult for your senior brother." Xu Fan looked at Li Xingci, who was looking conflicted in the distance.
"I was sincere, Master!" Zhou Kailing asserted.
"I know you're sincere. Just keep the Immortal Jades for yourself," Xu Fan concluded before shooing Zhou Kailing away.
Li Xingci in the distance breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why do I appear so inferior on this trip with Kailing," mumbled Li Xingci to himself.
"My lord, don't put on that face. Are you annoyed because I spent too many Immortal Jades?" Su Rentian asked resentfully at his side.
Li Xingci looked at his wife, who was adorned with Immortal Tools from head to toe, and couldn't help but say, "I only regret that I didn't make more Immortal Jades to make my wife even more beautiful."
Xu Fan, who was explaining the Doctrine of Thunder to Li Leihu, set up a ban on sound surrounding them.
The sweet scene of love wasn't successful. He couldn't just let everyone around him be tormented, could he?
At this moment, inside the Building Boat Immortal Ship.
The shopkeeper who had sold the half-broken puppet to Xu Fan was desperately pleading with Song Ming.
"Manager Song, I was wrong. I shouldn't have been greedy for that bit of Immortal Gold Spirit Mine."
"Now, I'll sell it all to you. I just ask you to return the batch of Spirit Fire Compasses at the original price, and I'm willing to give you an extra 3,000 Immortal Jades," whimpered the shopkeeper.
Song Ming helped him to his feet, almost like a gentleman.
"Manager Luo, we're talking business here. If I just sold this batch of Spirit Fire Compasses, I could easily make at least 5,000 Immortal Jades."
"Even with your 3,000 Immortal Jades, and that bit of Immortal Gold Spirit Mine, wouldn't I be losing over 1,000 Immortal Jades?" Song Ming explained with a smile.
"Moreover, Manager Luo, you're a great fisherman. Don't you think you could catch a big fish with these jades, and make a fortune?"
There was a hint of envy in Song Ming's tone.
"Manager Song, the fish I catch would go to the head of the family. It has nothing to do with me. But this batch of goods, if I lose out, I'll have to pay out of my own pocket."
With a squelching sound, Manager Luo fell to his knees, begging Song Ming fervently.
"Manager Luo, on the Commerce Road, paying for one's lessons is a crucial part of growth."
"You can't just favor yourself and leave others at a disadvantage," Song Ming stated before he laughed and departed.
The one-year term was nearly over, and the Ten Thousand Star Boat would be returning soon to fetch them.
Song Ming arrived back at his shop to see several of his fellow disciples packing up their belongings.
"The Ten Thousand Star Boat is already docked outside the barrier, Elder Brother Song, we can return now," one disciple from the Hidden Spirit Sect announced with a grin.
Compared to the deceit and plotted schemes of commerce, Song Ming enjoyed the peaceful cultivation at the Sect with his fellows, sparring and combating.
"It's a pity it was only for one year," Song Ming murmured, feeling an inkling of regret as he looked at the street teeming with the essence of various major middle thousand worlds.
However, the Sect held greater importance to him than this.
A star boat carried Song Ming and a few disciples from the Hidden Spirit Sect towards the docking site of the Ten Thousand Star Boat.
At the Heavenly Zone of the Ten Thousand Star Boat, Song Ming encountered Xu Fan.
"Greetings to the Great Master," Song Ming greeted, his hand clutching a Spatial Immortal Artifact.
"A profit of thirty thousand from a hundred thousand immortal jade in one year's time... not bad at all. Interested in tackling this route after we return?" Xu Fan posed the question with a chuckle.
"Great Master, does that mean I can return here in the future?" Song Ming asked, voice brimming with surprise.
"Our Sect has its Yu Zhou. The question is if you'd be willing to undertake this route."
"Willing! Of course, I am willing!!"
"For the Sect's sake, this disciple is willing to do whatever it takes!" Song Ming declared passionately.
Ming Kong looked over at the scene envy etched on his face.
Although their Elders Association had Commerce prodigy, they lacked adequate capital to afford their genius the chance to experiment and learn from their mistakes.
Not to mention sparing a hundred thousand immortal jade for their practice.
"Great Master, shall we now embark on our journey to the Chaotic Star District? It is filled with countless small worlds, each possessing a unique array of Spiritual Treasures," Ming Kong explained.
"How did these small worlds come about?" Xu Fan asked out of curiosity.
"The previous Supreme once mentioned that it should have been an incredibly massive middle thousand world whose failed attempt to advance to Immortal World led to a direct explosion by the Will of Heaven."
"The middle thousand world couldn't withstand the pressure and dispersed into numerous small worlds."
"Where does the danger arise from?"
"Due to the collapse of the Heavenly Dao's intent, it gave birth to a number of disordered small worlds."
"This place has thus become a haven for Star Thieves, amongst whom the most formidable possess the True Immortal Peak Cultivation," Ming Kong explained.
This information piqued Xu Fan's interest.
"While in the Star Region, I've often heard tales about True Immortals. However, why is there no mention of Golden Immortals?" This was the greatest question in Xu Fan's mind at the moment.
"I'm not entirely certain. Perhaps this region doesn't hold any appeal to Golden Immortals," Ming Kong conjectured.
"That would be highly probable."
As the duo carried on their conversation, the Ten Thousand Star Boat accelerated toward the unknown.
At this time, outside the protective barrier of the Building Boat Immortal Ship, there was another Yu Zhou setting off towards the direction of the Ten Thousand Star Boat.
Xu Fan, who was chatting with Ming Kong, suddenly furrowed his eyebrows.
He formed a hand seal, his eyes flitting through countless Dao Scriptures.
"Great Master, what happened?" Ming Kong queried, noticing Xu Fan's odd behavior.
"We've got a little tail trailing behind. I wonder what kind of present it will bring," Xu Fan commented with a laugh.
"Oh~" Ming Kong responded, carrying a face of normativity.
Every time they departed from the Ancient Green World, the absence of a tail following them would have been the anomaly.
