Chapter 356: Living is Hard
Qian Duoduo continued to speak, "Forget it, since you have brought the people here, then..."
Lie Jiaojiao quickly covered Qian Duoduo's mouth and said to the others, "Brother Qian wants to ask who is the person in the front?"
Leader of the Seven Stars Alliance: “…”
Do you think I'm stupid? That guy clearly didn't say that!
But the leader of the Seven Stars Alliance still smiled and said, "I am the leader of the Seven Stars Alliance. I came here to report something."
After hearing the other party's background, Qian Duoduo, who had his mouth covered and was struggling, suddenly became quiet.
He looked at Lie Jiaojiao with gratitude, and seeing this, Lie Jiaojiao loosened her hand that was covering Qian Duoduo's mouth.
Qian Duoduo's sitting posture was much straighter than before, and his tone was not as nonchalant as before.
"Are you here to hand in a mission?"
When talking about the purpose of this trip, the leader of the Seven Stars Alliance thought of the incident in which the duck in his hand flew away.
So many spiritual stones! He had to return them all later. Suddenly, he felt even more heartbroken.
But even if he didn't want to return it, the leader of the Seven Stars Alliance still told them the whole story.
When Qian Duoduo heard that it was Shi Ye who kidnapped him, his face turned red with anger.
"Snapped!"
Qian Duoduo slammed the table angrily and stood up. "This Shi is really awesome. Does he think I'm easy to bully?"
The leader of the Seven Stars Alliance looked around and complained in his heart: Aren’t you the easiest to bully?
There are so many Nascent Souls in this room, and there's even one person whose cultivation level he can't even see. You're the only one in the Golden Core stage. If I were in your place, I would also choose to tie you up first.
Although he thought so in his heart, he still had to smile, "We didn't complete the task. According to the rules, we have to return all the spirit stones."
The leader of the Seven Stars Alliance almost uttered the last sentence with gritted teeth.
His heart was bleeding, and for the first time he spat out the meat he had stuffed into his mouth.
Qian Duoduo naturally noticed the other party's reluctant look and said, "You don't have to return the spirit stones, but you have to do something for me."
When the leader of the Seven Stars Alliance heard that the spirit stones did not need to be returned, his eyes suddenly lit up, but then he realized that the money might not be so easy to get.
He did not agree immediately, but asked tentatively: "What do you need me to do?"
"Come closer." Qian Duoduo invited the other person to come closer, and then they started talking in a low voice.
The leader of the Seven Stars Alliance was a little hesitant when he heard Qian Duoduo's order, "This doesn't seem good. After all, the other party is the second disciple of the Grand Elder of the Tianji Pavilion."
"Did I ask you to kill the other person?" Qian Duoduo looked at the leader of the Seven Stars Alliance calmly, and his tone of voice was also very calm, as if this was just a trivial matter.
But it was this calm tone that made the leader of the Seven Stars Alliance feel extremely oppressive. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he lowered his head and shook it.
As expected of him, he is the young master of Feihuafang. He can clearly feel the pressure from a superior even though his cultivation is higher than the other person's.
Qian Duoduo retracted his gaze and replied in a more relaxed tone: "If you really feel that you can't do it, I won't make it difficult for you. Put down the spirit stone and go."
The leader of the Seven Stars Alliance breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to put the spirit stone down, he heard Qian Duoduo continue to speak in a casual tone.
"So many spirit stones! Even if you don't want them, there will always be someone who does."
The leader of the Seven Stars Alliance couldn't help but complain in his heart: You have to be alive to take it, and you also have to be alive to spend it. That's the Tianji Pavilion, an existence that even the Wandao Sect dare not offend!
Qian Duoduo seemed to see through what the other party was thinking and continued, "Just scare the other party and only inflict minor injuries on him. This little thing can earn you enough spirit stones to increase your strength by two levels. Who would refuse? What's more, as long as you are careful, there is no chance of being discovered."
Yes, as long as you are careful, how could you be discovered?
After weighing the matter, the leader of the Seven Stars Alliance gritted his teeth and agreed.
After the people from the Seven Stars Alliance left, Lin Hao gave Qian Duoduo a thumbs up, "How mean!"
Qian Duoduo was not convinced and said, "How can I be considered as losing money? I didn't kill him directly. Counting the time in the secret realm, this is the second time that guy has offended us. Isn't it normal to ask him to pay some interest?"
Compared with the laughter and joy on Lin Hao's side, Shi Ye, who had just been rescued, was in a bad mood.
After being told that his crippled limbs might not be able to be completely healed unless he received a healing pill of level seven or above, Shi fell into despair.
Fortunately, the system later told him that there were healing pills above level seven in the system, but the amount of luck consumed was also very huge.
This is undoubtedly good news for Shi Ye. As long as there is hope, it is a good thing.
As for the luck value, there is no need to worry. Once he recovers from his injuries and goes to visit mortals, I believe he will be able to get it all together soon. Although he has no way to kill a cultivator now, it is still easy for him to kill a mortal!
His main task now is to recuperate with peace of mind. Only when he is fully recovered can he start collecting luck points.
By then, it will be time for him to settle accounts with Qian Duoduo!
But things went against his wishes. Every night when Shi Ye was sleeping and recuperating, a man in black would always appear in the middle of the night and attack Shi Ye.
Moreover, the other party was very cunning and basically just stabbed you once and then left.
The wound was not serious, but he could not withstand the opponent's attacks several times in one night. Once, he even attacked when Shi Ye was meditating, causing Shi Ye to almost go crazy.
After Rusong learned about the situation, he sent people to guard Shi Ye's residence, but this still could not stop the opponent's attack.
The man in black was very cunning and easily evaded all the guards. He would never kill innocent people and would never let Shi Ye go.
Later, Rusong changed his mind and sent people to guard Shi Ye closely, but it was still useless. The other party still came and stabbed him and left as usual.
As for the people sent to protect Shi Ye closely, they were either knocked unconscious or drugged, or simply dodged the man in front of him, stabbed him once and ran away, regardless of the depth of the wound.
After a period of time, Shi Ye's injuries not only did not get better, but because he could not rest or recover through meditation, he became even more haggard.
Although those minor injuries could be healed quickly, the psychological damage caused to Shi Ye was enormous.
Even later when he saw Shi Ye, he didn't go out. The man in black was so bold that he came and stabbed Shi Ye in the daytime, causing Shi Ye to be frightened day and night. He always felt that someone was watching him all the time.
Qian Duoduo left the next day.
As for Shi Ye, he had already arranged people to report to him about Shi Ye's situation every few days.
Seeing Shi becoming more and more haggard day by day, and gradually becoming nervous, Qian Duoduo nodded with satisfaction.
He just wanted to let Shi know that life is not necessarily easy!
