Cultivation Esoterica - C132
“Who are you trying to trick!?” “In three months, you won’t even earn a single spirit essence stone. If you’re hunting a wild beast every day, besides your food and drinks, you should have at least five hundred thousand spirit essence stones!” City Lord Yi glanced at Captain Hao and said with a mocking expression.
Hearing City Lord Yi’s words, Lin Xi’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Arrest one a day for over ten thousand spiritual stones in three months? Since when were wild beasts so valuable? Lin Xi vaguely remembered when they were still at the Ling Family. Two late-Second Order Apes had broken their backs, and they were all sold for no more than three thousand spirit essence stones.
If it really was calculated like this, then there would be one late stage two wild beast a day, and one 1500 spirit essence stones for three months. That meant 90 days, and the final total income for three months should be 135,000 spirit essence stones … “Ugh …” Why is he so different from City Lord Yi! Lin Xi silently calculated this simple calculation question in his heart.
Lin Xi was still thinking. Could it be that when wild beasts are scarce in Bie Shuangcheng, Company Leader Hao smiled bitterly and said, “You’re talking about killing a Rank 4 wild beast every day! I don’t know whether or not there is one in the entire Elephant Mountain, but even if there is one, it would be an overlord that would let me easily kill it!”
Mayor Yi said impatiently, “I don’t care about that. You have to pay the taxes that you owe and the money that you need to destroy this place!”
Captain Hao tried his best to suppress his anger. However, the anger in his eyes and his clenched fists expressed his dissatisfaction.
“This place was destroyed by me, it has nothing to do with him!” Lin Xi said softly.
The originally furious Captain Hao looked at Lin Xi with an astonished expression. In his opinion, Lin Xi should have pushed this responsibility to him and guessed right. He didn’t have the strength to fight against Lin Xi anyway, but now Lin Xi had actually stopped him from committing all these crimes.
Captain Hao cursed in his heart: “This fool, is there something wrong with his head!”
Mayor Yi carefully observed Lin Xi a few times. When he didn’t find anything surprising, he asked, “You!?” Hahaha! Do you think my eyes are playing tricks on me!? A little kid in the middle stage of the Void Stage was able to create such a storm! “Haha!”
Lin Xi thought to herself, this person actually doesn’t believe she has the ability to do so! In order to prove that she had the ability to do so, Lin Xi thought about it and took out one of the two tornados from before and held it in her palm.
When City Lord Yi, who was originally laughing loudly, saw the small storm in Lin Xi’s hand, his eyes blinked in disbelief. “Really …” Was it really you who destroyed it? ”
Lin Xi nodded with a smile, her heart brimming with the pride of being acknowledged.
“Yes ~, may I know your name, Master Gao?!” City Lord Yi clasped his hands together and said with a stern expression.
Lin Xi blinked. There were only two people in the class. One was an expert who had taught him the [Void Spirit Art], while the other was the Black Turtle Sect’s Left Enforcer who had already been buried. “Eh …” My master is an envoy from the Black Turtle Sect to the left! ”
City Lord Yi searched all the experts he knew, but couldn’t find the words Lin Xi said. He asked apologetically, “Left Custodian? Black Turtle Sect? “Where?”
Lin Xi directly said without thinking, “Little Flame Continent!”
When City Lord Yi heard the words “Little Flame Continent”, the joy and greed on his face intertwined. He paced back and forth in front of Lin Xi and said, “You’re from Little Flame Continent?” Lin Xi nodded happily.
“Do you know that the cultivators of the Little Flame Continent and the Flame Continent are not allowed to interact with each other?” City Lord Yi said as his eyes glinted with greed.
Lin Xi pondered for a moment before suddenly realizing and said, “It’s because of the separation from the Elephant Mountain!”
Mayor Yi shook his head with a smile and pointed at the sky, whispering mysteriously, “It’s the meaning of the higher-ups.”
Lin Xi nodded and shook his head. City Lord Yi sighed, thinking to himself: Such a foolish person, he’s even accepted by an expert as his disciple? And he could even cross the Elephant Mountain? The heavens are too weak for me!
Mayor Yi no longer wanted to continue chatting with Lin Xi. “I’ll tell you this!” As an outsider who has secretly escaped from Little Flame Continent, you should pay five million spirit essence stones to this city! ”
As City Lord Yi spoke, he looked around and continued, “In addition, destroying the environment will cost one million spirit essence stones, and losing trees and soil will cost three million spirit essence stones!”
Then, he looked at Captain Hao and said: “It should have been you who had a conflict with Captain Hao. All of the members of Captain Hao’s team should be dead by now!”
Lin Xi nodded helplessly.
“Mm, the funeral expenses for each member is five hundred thousand spirit essence stones, the family’s consolation fee is three million spirit essence stones each!” As he spoke, City Lord Yi smiled and nodded his head in satisfaction.
Lin Xi was shocked when he heard the price of one million spirit essence stones. He cursed in his heart, “If I had so many spirit stones, I would have long found a comfortable place to enjoy them. Why must I suffer like this?”
“I didn’t!” Lin Xi rolled his eyes at Mayor Yi in annoyance.
“No!” “Humph!” City Lord Yi’s expression changed, “You still have the cultivation technique and martial arts on you, right?!” Your level shouldn’t be low. I’ll let you go after I take it out! ”
“I can’t take it out. Even if I can, I won’t give it to you!” Lin Xi sneered.
City lord Yi exclaimed, “Aiyah! Not giving? This isn’t up to you to decide. If you don’t want to die, then obediently hand it over! “Think about it carefully. If you take it out now, you will be able to recover your freedom. If I kill you and find out again, you will be left with nothing!”
Then, he continued with a smile, “Think about it, you are still young and have a lot of things to do in the future. Cultivation techniques and martial skills, when compared to life, are much heavier.”
Just as Lin Xi wanted to reply, an aged laughter sounded out from far away in the sky.
“Hahaha!”
“I thought City Lord Yi was handling some important matters! So he was bullying a foreign child! It’s funny, haha! ”
If not for his snow-white hair and wrinkled face, most people would not have been able to tell that he was an old man!
Mayor Yi glanced at the old man impatiently and snorted, “Ou De, I would be happy if you would pay the tax, but …” As he spoke, he faced Bie Shuangcheng and frowned, sneering, “Puchi, you brought these people with you, is it to rebel?”
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh ~ ~”
The other cultivators arrived one by one and stood in front of Ou De … “Ugh …” Behind the president, even the captain of the Demon Hunt Squad, Captain Hao, was standing with them.
Ou De ignored Mayor Yi’s words. He bowed slightly towards Lin Xi and said, “I’m the branch president of the Changping Union. All the fines that Mayor Yi says satisfy his own greed and all the fake taxes he makes up …”
