Chongming Xianzong

Chapter 65 News
In a grocery store in Linghe Market, the one-eyed shopkeeper sat alone at the counter. A cup of steaming tea was placed on the table. He squinted his eyes and looked outside the door, as if he was waiting for someone.

He has always been eccentric. In his early years, he hired several monks as servants, but none of them could serve him.

The one who was bullied by him the most even threatened that he would rather die in the shelter in the market than come to work.

Later, he really died in Rongju House.

Later, he hired some mortal servants, but he was even more dissatisfied. After he got angry several times and beat and killed many servants, no one came anymore.

However, the grocery store business has never been good, so he gave up the idea of ​​hiring anyone. It would be a good thing for the store to be quieter.

It doesn’t matter whether these things on the shelf can be sold or not, he has his own ability to earn spirit stones.

At this moment, a gorgeous female cultivator in cool clothes finally caught his eye.

I saw her smiling with curved eyebrows and her little mouth opened slightly: "Boss, you miss me so much, you are looking forward to it."

"Don't laugh, Miss Chong. If your good brother Zi Fenggu hears this, he will probably release the Black Fang Viper to make trouble with me."

The one-eyed shopkeeper did not stand up. When he saw Lady Chong coming in, he pinched his fingers to close the magic circle and cut off any sound from inside.

"The person just came in and you closed the door, you are too impatient, brother."

Seeing Lady Chong's shoulder straps sliding down from her creamy shoulders, and then her charming smile and hook of her hand, the one-eyed shopkeeper felt a tingling sensation when he heard the sound as thin as a mosquito's buzz.

The latter knew that the former had some attainments in magic skills and it was not the first time they had dealt with each other, so he had made preparations in advance.

But a little heat still appeared in his lower abdomen, so he said seriously: "Let's talk about business first."

"Why are you so concerned about Kang Dabao? He's just a small businessman with the title of the head of a sect, but you're so worried about him."

Lady Chong came closer, leaned her charming body against the counter, reached out to take the tea bowl from the one-eyed shopkeeper, and began to sip.

The spiritual tea was still very hot when she drank it, and she stuck out her tongue in pain. On top of her plump and enchanting appearance, there was another layer of innocence and cuteness.

The fragrant breeze from Lady Bug's mouth blew in front of the one-eyed shopkeeper, who was so frightened that he quickly closed his six senses.

After drinking tea for a while, seeing that the one-eyed shopkeeper did not answer her, Lady Chong chuckled and said, "Okay, okay, I know you are anxious. I will give you the news you want."

"My old man said that since Zhao Gu was killed by Chongming Sect, then the Shi family can settle the score if they want to. We, the Grass Witch Cult, will not do anything about it. But Zhao Gu must pay a lot of spirit stones every year. Whoever wins must continue to pay."

"This crazy old man Chen Ye really only has spirit stones in his eyes. He doesn't even care about his own senior brother's family affairs." The one-eyed shopkeeper looked surprised.

"That's right. Uncle Shi went home angry because he didn't become the head of the sect. My old man took advantage of his old age and frailty to kill his family and use them as materials for refining. We are already close friends among the same sect. What else can the Shi family be dissatisfied with?"

Lady Chong finished her tea, licked the wall of the cup with her tongue, and pushed it back in front of the one-eyed shopkeeper, then spoke again:

"Good brother, are you really unwilling to go back to the Grass Witch Cult with me? The old man said that your ability in using spirit mirrors is not inferior to that of Jiang Xian, the chief worshiper invited by the fellow practitioners from the Jiang Family Business. How can you be so patient and do some business of broken spirit particles here?"

When the one-eyed shopkeeper heard the words "Jiang Family Trading Company", a bloody afterimage emerged in his mind again. Sadness spread in his heart and he did not answer.

Seeing that the one-eyed shopkeeper did not move, Lady Chong went back into the counter.

The one-eyed shopkeeper's huge body, even when sitting on a low stool, was still a head taller than Lady Bug.

Lady Chong smiled, pressed her soft body against him, and wrapped her small hands around the one-eyed shopkeeper's waist.

"The old man told me that as long as you are willing to come, he is willing to give you the position of chief worshiper. If you are willing to become his disciple, after a few years, when your cultivation level is higher, you can also serve as an elder and protector.

Don't underestimate my temple. It's better than going to some big foundation-building sect and being a member of the inner or outer sect, being ordered around by the elders, relatives and disciples, right?"

Lady Chong kept talking, and finally she slowly moved her whole body into the arms of the one-eyed shopkeeper.

The latter looked distressed, but still continued to ask, "Does Kang Dabao know this news?"

"Hehe, the disciple in charge of Hemu Dao who asked for help in front of his family said it, how could the news not reach his ears? What, you also want to take advantage of the Shi family's opening of Chongming Sect to make a fortune?" Lady Chong said her guess. Unexpectedly, the one-eyed shopkeeper said: "The in-laws of the Ming family and the He family are not for show, the Shi family may not win."

"Master Kang Dabao has been dead for many years. When he was alive, he was naturally a relative, but that may not be the case after he dies." Mrs. Chong smiled again.

"I don't believe you haven't thought about it. I don't know what grade the martial arts his Jiang Qing is practicing is. A kid at the sixth level of Qi training can make such a big name in this area, he must be quite good. I've been coveting it for a long time, how can a villain like you resist?"

"Then why didn't your family go and rob earlier? Since the Ming family, the He family, and the Hemu Dao all have no scruples, and your family is used to doing evil things, what else do you have to worry about?"

The one-eyed shopkeeper finally expressed his doubts.

"His family has been in decline for many years. Do you really think that his family was the great foundation-building sect back then? They have been in decline for several generations and have been plundered long ago! They only have that little property, which was torn apart after the family split. How many valuable things are there?

Besides, there is no need to upset those three families. For some reason, the old man did not allow the members of the Grass Witch Cult to touch them. Not to mention that Kang Dabao could become the head of the sect when he was only at the third level of Qi training. It was really ridiculous. Who would even look at him?"

"No," Lady Chong paused her laughter, and her beautiful eyes stared straight at the one-eyed shopkeeper's gray eyes.

"Brother, you have been paying attention to him all the time. I guess you know something that I don't, right?"

"Please order the spirit stones. Our shop is about to close, so we won't give you any." The one-eyed shopkeeper still ignored her, threw the insect lady in his arms out and was about to get up and drive the customer away.

"Alas, all men in the world are like this. They use women and then dump them. None of them are good."

Lady Chong knew that this question had touched upon the point that the one-eyed shopkeeper was concerned about, so she got off the one-eyed shopkeeper's body. She spoke weakly for a while with a crying voice, and then pretended to wipe away her tears. She didn't want to leave yet.

The one-eyed shopkeeper ignored her. At this moment, his heart was in turmoil and he frowned in deep thought.

When Lady Chong saw him like this, she felt bored and knew that she would return empty-handed again today.

"Never mind. There's no need to rush."

Lady Chong stretched out a finger as white as a scallion and pointed at the spirit stones in the cloth bag one by one to confirm that there was no mistake.

He walked to the door of the grocery store and waited for the one-eyed shopkeeper to lift the ban so that he could go out.

At this time, a snow-white kite flew to the door, and the magic collar on its neck lit up for a while.

The restriction was opened, and Xin Yao came in and let out a crisp cry of joy when he saw his master, then landed steadily on the shoulder of the one-eyed shopkeeper.

When Lady Chong saw Xin Yao, a sincere smile appeared on her face and she stopped to look.

But the one-eyed shopkeeper's big hand was seen rubbing Xin Yao's head for a while, as a consolation.

He then took out the secret spiritual message that Xin Yao had swallowed. After reading it, his expression changed slightly. He raised his hand again and closed the magic circle.

Before the somewhat surprised Lady Chong could ask any questions, he said, "Lady Chong, you can't take this spirit stone with you."

"You are such a killer! How dare you harm me?" Lady Chong was very scared because she had heard of this guy's reputation.

It's just that we have been dealing with each other for so many years, and I have connections with both the Grass Witch Cult and the Zifeng Valley, so I never thought that I would encounter this today before I came here.

The one-eyed shopkeeper finally cracked a smile on his face, feeling that he had finally turned the tables in his dealings with Lady Insect.

Then even the look in his one eye became kind, and he said in a gentle voice: "Don't be afraid, my lady. I have some news, and you have to buy it with spirit stones."
