Chapter 435 – The Truth; Lots of Troubles (9) [BONUS LENGTH]

Several of them nodded, that was indeed the purpose of their visit. After all, all of the Top 9 Sects had caught wind of Elder Ying’s breakthrough to martial monarch. In addition, all of the Top 4 Powers were also at the Cheng’s, lending even more weight to the words.

They hadn’t, however, expected her to use that as an excuse. No matter what, they felt unreconciled. Elder Lin thought about it for a while longer and said, “Maiden Cheng, are you saying that we will have a chance to seek your help if the other elders could succeed?”

“Well… I can’t really comment on that right now and I can’t make any promises.” Cheng Xiao Xiao frowned a little. These issues were too sticky, so sticky that they were putting her in a bad mood.

Yet she also knew that unless utmost necessary, it was best not to offend those from the Top 9 Sects. Even if she wasn’t worried about any actions from their part, they have, after all, never did anything harmful to her either.

“Maiden Cheng, are you saying that you won’t help us even if we are willing to pay the cost?” The elder from Bagua Sect was unhappy.

They had arrived at the Cheng’s for a few days now and this was the first chance they had to corner now. This was simply not an answer that they could accept.

“HOHOHO….”

Cheng Xiao Xiao chuckled all of a sudden and her eyes swept through everyone there with a meaningful look, then she said, somewhat suggestively, “Of course there is a price to pay, but I am afraid that none of you will be willing to pay this price when all is said and done.”

“…..”

Nobody said anything. Smiling, Cheng Xiao Xiao looked over to the one who looked the most normal and said, “Wouldn’t you agree, Old Man Ying?”

“Exactly!” said Old Man Ying as he nodded with a nonchalant look.

He was the only one who knew what Cheng Xiao Xiao referred to as the cost and, truth be told, he had no idea how many there would be willing to enter into a contract with Cheng Xiao Xiao.

Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t say anything else, nor did she have more to say, and left.

The reason she made that comment was because she was certain that was the reason Zhu Bo and his son were there as well.

The more people knew about it, the more visitors would be coming to her place.

***

At a village outside of Yan!

There was a big courtyard in this village, and it belonged to the Luo’s.

Ever since they have been kicked out by the Luo’s, the Tian’s had moved to this place.

Granted, the only reason they could stay there was because Mrs. Luo had a moment of weakness and gave her daughter the deed to a place – this courtyard right here.

It wasn’t exactly in Yan, but it was still quite close.

They couldn’t return to Mingdong Sect and couldn’t stay at the Luo’s, so the Tian’s had no choice but to move here. Naturally, they were not appreciative of this at all, and all they had were disgruntlement and anger!

Luo Yujie, especially, hated her sister’s entire family in the past; now that she was kicked out of the Luo’s, she hated her parents and her brother as well.

All she did day in and day out was to cuss out everyone in the courtyard until, one day, Tian Fusheng couldn’t stand it anymore and slapped her a few times before she finally shut up and stopped spewing her negativity.

The Tian’s brothers took it the hardest. They had felt from prestigious young masters to villagers. The difference was like heaven and earth and they weren’t able to handle it. They hatred for the Cheng’s and the Luo’s were no less than that of their mother’s, possibly more!

They swore that they would avenge them, especially Tian Jian, who had been injured. His dark eyes were filled with vicious, killer intent. He especially wanted to kill Cheng Xiao Xiao.

They had gone from very unaccustomed from the first few days to accepting helplessly their current situation in a little over half a month. No matter what, they at least have a place to stay.

Soon, they realized that even though they have lost their prestigious status in a big city, they still had much higher status in this countryside. It was not long before their vanity returned.

The house wasn’t far from the mountain, the Tian’s brothers, with nothing better to use, would use hunting and cultivating as an excuse to go into the mountains. No matter what, it was part of the areas they visit regular.

This day, much like a few days ago, the two of them went inside the mountain, found a suitable open area, and decided to practice the martial art choreography that have learned today before they went hunting.

KANG! KANG! KANG!

Their choreography was far from spectacular, but as martial masters, they were decent and their speed was alright as well.

“Aye, what are these two annoying kids practicing?” came a voice filled with despise and disdain that made the Tian’s brother stopped in their track.

They could tell the voice that the person who spoke was no ordinary martial artist, he was at least a martial king. Startled, the two of them exchanged a look.

Still alarmed, Tian Feng cupped his hands and said respectfully, “Greetings for your junior Tian Feng. May I ask which senior this is?”

Tian Jiang’s handsome face was tense. He was not happy. Regardless of whether what he said was true, the prideful Tian Jiang was unhappy about the comment that the man has made.

“KEKEKE….” Came a strange nose that instantly made them felt very uncomfortable. The voice continued, “Two annoying kids, one is still somewhat polite, the other was prideful. Get out and don’t ever come back. Otherwise, hrm hrm…”

“Why? This is the backside of my house. If anyone has to get out, that should be you!” Tian Jiang was very annoyed, especially after what the man had just said. He didn’t care what cultivation level the man was, and spoke without thinking.

As soon as he finished talking, an odd-looking claw appeared out of nowhere.

Before Tian Jiang even figured out what was going on, the claw that looked like it belonged to a vicious beast hit him squarely on his chest, “WAH!” Blood came flying out of his mouth and his body flew into the air before it landed heavily on the ground.

“Sen…. Senior!”
