When the mission was completed, Zheng-Fu's next destination was the Beyond Earth Sect. The reason he returned was that he wanted to make the Beyond Earth Sect the number one sect in this kingdom. It gradually grew to be equivalent to the six major sects, becoming the seventh sect.

Besides, Zheng-Fu wanted to research how to create Noah Zeppelin from the plans he had obtained. He, therefore, chose to return to the Beyond Earth Sect for now.

Swish!!!

As for the villagers and those who were captured by the Assassin Organization, after they survived, they continued to talk about the heroism of the mysterious young man who dared to enter the Assassin Organization, which everyone had been afraid of for a long time, and destroy it until it was completely ruined.

The more this news spread, the more its content became exaggerated. Some said that Zheng-Fu could kill all the assassins with just one finger. Some said that with only Zheng-Fu snorting, the Assassin Organization's residence was instantly shattered into pieces in the blink of an eye.

Of course, this news was of great interest, and it even spread far and wide across the lands. Many assumed that it was Blueland's new Divine Emperor martial master who wiped out this Assassin Organization. Even the Assassin Organization itself thought so.

After two days, Zheng-Fu finally arrived at In-See City, and he immediately headed toward the Beyond Earth Sect. Along the way, Zheng-Fu was able to walk through without issues or troublesome incidents, as prime disciples from the Beyond Earth Sect came out to welcome and guard him.

"Are those the disciples of the Beyond Earth Sect?"

"Who? Where are they!? Ah… It's true, it's them. And who is that kid?"

"How would I know…? If I knew, I'd already told you! But looking at the Beyond Earth Sect's disciples showing respect to him, he is probably someone important."

"That's right! Sigh... I'm really envious of the guys who can join the Beyond Earth Sect. Since the recruitment of new disciples was completed last month, it has remained silent until now. No further announcements have been made."

"I want to be one too. Being just a service disciple is fine. At least I'll get the salary and have the opportunity to practice martial arts."

"Come on! There must be a day when we can become disciples of the Beyond Earth Sect. By the way, have you heard of the evil Assassin Organization being destroyed?"

"Yes... They say it's the action of our Blueland's new Divine Emperor martial master, and from what I heard, he killed all the assassins."

"Um... I really want to know who our land's new Divine Emperor martial master is and where he came from. Maybe he belongs to the Beyond Earth Sect!"

"Yes, that makes sense! I think the same as you. Because of this, over the past few days, many people have come to our In-See City to apply to become the Beyond Earth Sect's disciples."

"That's right! Even people from the capital have come. I remember that rich boy from the capital."

Um...

The voices of people chatting non-stop on both sides of the road he passed by. Zheng-Fu could hear all their conversation, realizing that because of his level-raising event, a large number of people had been coming here. And, with the rumors about the Assassin Organization Branch being destroyed, more people came.

But these people had different purposes. Someone might actually come to join the Beyond Earth Sect. But some might come to find information. And some people were malicious toward Zheng-Fu and were staring at Zheng-Fu right now. These people were not of a very high level and could be easily detected.

"These guys are not members of the Assassin Organization. And they are not the high-level martial masters from the big sects. Then these people are probably the ones who want to try their ability out on me," Zheng-Fu murmured deep in his throat after examining five people on the second floor of a tavern.

On the second floor of a tavern...

"Big Brother! Who do you think that boy is? Why are there disciples from the Beyond Earth Sect guarding him like that?"

"I'm sure he must be important in some way. It looks like he isn't a martial master. I can't even feel that kid's energy level. So, he must be someone from somewhere who was sent on some important errands."

"So, what are we going to do…? Rob him!?"

Bang!!!

"You'll rob who, you dumb ass!? Don't you see the disciples guarding him? They aren't servant disciples nor outer disciples. As I can see, if they aren't inner disciples, they're prime disciples!"

Hah...?

Inner disciples!?

Prime disciples!?

"Are they yummy, Big Brother, those inner disciples and prime disciples?"

Bang!!!

"Go yummy at your house! Those are their ranks!!! Even if I explain, you guys won't understand. To put it simply, they are high-level martial masters," said the young man, the leader of the group. The expression on his face was still worried, and he was very curious about who Zheng-Fu was. But he did not dare to act as impulsively as before.

The young man was thinking about whether or not it would be a good idea to send his four foolish brothers to test him. But the problem was that those who were guarding that kid were all the Immortal cultivators. How would they, who were only at the third and fourth levels of the Nascent Soul stage, be able to fight them?

Until Zheng-Fu passed by, the young man did nothing. He had figured out that it was not worth disturbing the people from the Beyond Earth Sect right now. It would be better for him to find more information first. Thus, Zheng-Fu walked past without any disturbance.

"This time, nothing happened! Or I'm going to run out of bad luck!?" Zheng-Fu felt something strangely wrong when nothing happened to him as it should have been every time.

But at that moment...

Thud!!!

Argh!!!

"Fucking filthy kid! You... you dare steal a steamed bun from my shop? You die!" Suddenly, the voice of the middle-aged man who was the owner of the giant ant-stuffed steamed bun shop sounded as a deteriorated young figure jumped out of the bun shop.

"Well, I'm… I'm hungry. I haven't eaten for many days. Just one small bun..." the boy who had been pushed out said as he hurriedly stuffed the bun that he had stolen into his mouth.

"Not even one piece you can steal. My buns are for trade! Not given for free! If you want to eat, pay money. Otherwise, I'll break one of your arms in exchange for that bun!" The shopkeeper continued to yell at the boy, disinterested in the gaze of those around him, including Zheng-Fu.

"No, don't hit my arm... I still have my grandmother and grandfather for me to take care of. If you hit my arm, which arm will I use to work for money? If you did that, Grandma and Grandpa are going to starve to death," the teenage boy continued to cry out, searching for words to explain non-stop in the hope that the shop owner and the people around him would be sympathetic.

But Zheng-Fu thought differently. Just now, he noticed a small smile on the corner of the youth's mouth in front of him. He was even the number one liar, so how could he not know that this kid was acting to fool everyone?

'Thinking about playing drama in front of me, little kid? Let me see how good you can play.' Zheng-Fu said in his mind, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. He took out the monster crystal coins and flicked them into the boy's trousers pocket without him even realizing it.

Zheng-Fu then told the prime disciples to wait for him for a moment, he would be back soon. He walked towards the boy who was performing a pitiful role while everyone sympathized and agreed to help him.

"Hey! Why do you have to pretend to have no money?" Zheng-Fu said with a grin on his face.

Huh...?

This boy was the same age as Zheng-Fu; he was only a year younger than him. However, the boy's face looked much younger than Zheng-Fu, and Zheng-Fu looked more mature. And when he heard Zheng-Fu's voice, he immediately turned to look at Zheng-Fu while pointing a finger at himself before replying.

"You mean me?"

"Right, besides you, who else could it be? There's no one screaming like a mouse like you are." Zheng-Fu knew that the other party was going to annoy him, so Zheng-Fu annoyed him first.

"Hah... Why do you have to blame me? What did I do to you?" The boy was still performing a sad-faced drama, as before. Behind this sorrowful face was filled with the most vengeful malice against Zheng-Fu.

"You didn't do anything to me. But I can't stand still when I see everyone here being deceived by you. That's all," Zheng-Fu was just as good at acting as this young man. He was even better at pretending.

"Deceive? When did I deceive them? Don't you just accuse me!" The youth still refused and continued his acting, performing to be even more pitiful.

Zheng-Fu's conversation with this youth calmed the angry shopkeeper down. He could see the Beyond Earth Sect's disciples standing a few distances away and saw that Zheng-Fu walked from that direction as well.

"Huh! Am I the one who accused you? No, I'm telling everyone the truth that you're just a shepherd who deceives others that you've got no money. Actually, you have a lot of money in your pocket, you liar!" Zheng-Fu did not hesitate to conclude the matter immediately.

"That's crazy! What are you talking about? How can I have money? If I had, I wouldn't have stolen the bun and let myself be beaten like this," the youth tried to make excuses for himself while taking a moment when everyone ignored him to reach into his pockets before discovering that he actually had the money.

Ah!!!

Upon realizing that he had money in his pocket, the youth's face began to turn pale. But soon, he returned with the same sad expression on his face, with a cry out, "Ouch!!!" He then fell to the ground with a tortured look. But in reality, he wanted to swap the money in his pocket.

"Did you think of playing tricks on your stomachache like that? Well, I'll give you a really bad stomachache myself," Zheng-Fu knew this kid was faking it, so he thought of making his performance a little more realistic, with a small wave of energy hitting the kid's stomach.

Zing!

Thud!!!

Argh!!!

As soon as a wave of energy hit the boy's belly, from the fact that he pretended to be hurt, it became a real pain that could not be helped. It caused his hand that was about to switch the place to keep the money lifted up to hold his stomach instead. This caused the monster crystal coins in his hand to drop onto the ground so everyone around him could see them.

Hah...?

"Is that money?"

"That's right, there's a lot of coins too!"

"So, does that mean this kid is a scammer?"

"Damn it, you bastard kid! You have money, but still, dare to steal from my shop, don't you? Get ready for your broken limbs. Foolish boy!" The store owner, who had been enchanted by the boy's deceit, suddenly returned to his senses after seeing the monster crystal coins falling to the ground.

"No... No... They… they're not... not mine!"
