The idea of accepting Hou Jin Zhi Zhi as his disciple was an impromptu idea that came to Ye Mo, but when he saw that Hou Jin Zhi Zhi had really accepted him as his master, Ye Mo suddenly had a sense of satisfaction, he seemed to feel that he was not wrong in doing this.
Ye Mo casually pulled up Houng Zhi Zhi and said, “My real name is Ye Mo, but now I also have some enemies, if any of them ask about my name, you can just say my name is Luo Xiao Mo.”
Ye Mo knew that the name Mo Ying would definitely be suspected by the Thundercloud Sect, and since the name Ning Xiao Ma had been exposed too much in the Meteoric Truth Hall, this time he simply named it Luo Xiao Mo.
Although he used Luo Xiaomo, he was still a little speechless in his heart, when could he use the name Ye Mo to speak in a dignified manner oa?
Although Jin Zhi Chang was a little puzzled, she didn’t ask any more questions. The sudden addition of a master made her feel as if she had a lot more. Previously, she had lived in a cycle of earning spirit stones and paying off her debts. She had no relatives, no friends, and no higher aspirations. The only thing on her mind was to pay off the spirit stones as soon as possible.
“Master, did you also come to Dan City to participate in the Dan King Competition in three months? Are you a Dan King?” Jin Zhi Chang still hadn’t forgotten this question and asked it even after she had worshipped Ye Mo as her master. Although she longed for Ye Mo to be a Dan King, she would have a Dan King master, but she still knew in her heart that her grandfather had not become a Dan King at that age, and her master was probably just a spirit dan master.
Ye Mo said with a faint smile, “You are looking forward to the Dan King Competition?”
Jin Zhi Chang nodded and said, “My grandfather’s whole life was to participate in the Dan King Competition once, but he was only a seventh grade Spiritual Dan Master when he left, so he still had a long way to go before becoming a Dan King. Grandpa said that he might not be able to become a Dan King in his lifetime, and said that my qualifications were not suitable for alchemy and there was no need to continue on his path.”
In fact, in the Northern Hope Continent, a seventh-grade Spiritual Dan Master already had quite a high status, but in the Southern Security Continent, and still in Dan City, a seventh-grade Spiritual Dan Master was really nothing.
“We’ll talk about the Dan King Competition later, I’ll send the idle guests inside the courtyard away first.” Although Ye Mo was trying to gain a firm foothold in Dan City by participating in the Dan King Competition, the eight words had not yet been written. Moreover, after he learned that Mo Youshen’s master was the Dan King Elder of Dan City, he already had some bad feelings in his heart.
Although Jing Yingli was a woman, Ye Mo felt that this woman was thoughtful and was far more familiar with Dan City than he was, so he was still prepared to wait until Jing Yingli arrived.
“Master, those tenants can’t be sent off because I owe them white spoon spirit stones.” Jin Zhi Chang was anxious when she heard Ye Mo say that he would send those in away.
This was Dan City, if Dan City could bully the entrants at will, she would have been ostracized from Dan City by the entrants long ago, and would not even have a life.
Although those insiders had occupied her small courtyard, they did not do so by force, but because she owed the other party spirit stones.
Ye Mo waved his hand and said, “You don’t need to care about the rest, just listen to me and go and call all those entrants out before you say anything.”
Ye Mo stood in the middle of the courtyard, but after a long time, Jin Zhi Chang only brought out two entrants. One of them had some impatience on his face, and if he hadn’t been unable to see through Ye Mo’s cultivation level, he might have had a fit.
The other one didn’t get angry, but swept a glance at Ye Mo and then stared coldly at Jin Zhi Zhi, “Miss Jin, our time is limited, so if you have anything to say, say it quickly. You haven’t paid back a single spirit stone this month, and I haven’t bothered to ask you.”
Jin Zhi Chang’s face turned red as she lowered her head and said, “I’m sorry, Senior Wei, my master is looking for you about something.”
“Your master?” Those two entrants looked at Ye Mo again, but didn’t say anything else. They could tell that Ye Mo’s cultivation level was higher than theirs, but so what if it was higher, this was Dan City, not somewhere else.
Ye Mo’s divine sense swept over to the other three entrants who were still inside the room as if nothing had happened, and suddenly he coldly snorted as three divine sense stabs were thrown over. The three entrants who did not come out simultaneously spurted out a mouthful of blood, their faces pale beyond compare.
At this moment, they already knew that the one inside the courtyard was an expert among experts, so they didn’t dare to stay inside the room and immediately ran out, only looking at Ye Mo with some scorn.
This was still because Ye Mo was using the lightest divine sense stab, his ‘Violet Eye Soul Cutting’ had now been cultivated to the third level and he could cast the divine sense blade at will. If the Divine Sense Blade pa*sed, these three entrants would go mad even if they didn’t become dead souls.
Seeing Ye Mo’s strong might, the two entrants who came to the middle of the courtyard earlier were also a bit alarmed. Although Dan City’s rules were strict, if the entry family killed a few of their own here, even if they were punished by Dan City, it would have nothing to do with them.
“This courtyard was left to Zhi Chang by her grandfather, are you guys living in this courtyard not only not paying spirit stones but also asking Zhi Chang for spirit stones because of your higher cultivation?” Ye Mo coldly swept a few people and said in a light voice.
The cultivator surnamed Wei, who came out first, stood out and cupped his fist and said, “Senior, although you
are Jin Zhi Chang’s master, but you can’t be unreasonable in Dan City. We are staying here, but we don’t want to stay here, it’s because Hou Zhi Zhi owes us white spirit stones and can’t pay them back, so we have no choice but to give up our own place to stay here.”
Ye Mo laughed, “In that case, you guys are still doing it for the good of Jin Zhi Zhi?”
“Not bad.” Although that cultivator knew that Ye Mo’s cultivation level was much higher than theirs, he seemed to be sure that Ye Mo wouldn’t dare to do anything to them, so he opened his mouth and spoke blindly.
“Very good.” To his surprise, Ye Mo did not get angry, but swept the courtyard and suddenly asked again, “How many spirit stones does Jin Zhi Zhi owe you?”
The cultivator surnamed Wei was prepared to make a commotion when Ye Mo moved to be strong and call for Dan City’s guards to come. But he didn’t expect Ye Mo to ask how many spirit stones Hou Zhang Zhi Zhi owed him instead of using force.”
He then realised that Ye Mo was just pretending, and that he wouldn’t dare to use force in Dancheng, so when he thought of this, his tone suddenly became louder, “She owes me 140,000 spirit stones.”
Hearing his tone, Ye Mo knew what he was thinking, and didn’t point it out, asking again, “Is it true that after Jin Zhi Chang returns the spirit stones to you, you will leave here immediately?”
“Of course, I, Wei Wu Ya, am also a trustworthy entrant, how could I hijack another entrant’s territory, not to mention that even if I were to do so, the Dan City guards would immediately exterminate me.” That cultivator surnamed Wei said without hesitation, as if he was simply a very upright cultivator. Likewise, his latter words were to warn Ye Mo that this was Dan City, not a place to move strong.
Ye Mo pretended not to hear it and continued to ask: “I won’t ask about the cultivation cave, just how many spirit stones does it cost to stay in a medium inn in Dan City for a year?”
“It should cost around 150,000 spirit stones, but of course this place can’t be compared to an inn.” The cultivator surnamed Wei obviously understood the meaning of Ye Mo’s words.
Ye Mo sneered, ignoring his petty thoughts, and asked again, “Then how many spirit stones would you need to rent a room in a small courtyard like this in Dan City for a year?”
“It would cost around twenty to thirty thousand spirit stones, right?” The cultivator surnamed Wei already had sweat seeping out of his forehead, Ye Mo’s words were so clear in asking, how could he not understand?
Ye Mo once again gave a cold laugh and said, “I don’t need to ask, I know it’s more than 20,000 to 30,000 spirit stones. I’ll let you count 30,000 spirit stones, okay, let me ask you how many years have you been living here?”
“Six, six years ……,” the cultivator surnamed Wei’s tone was already trembling a little.
“Six years, very good. Even if it’s 30,000 spirit stones a year, how many spirit stones do you need to pay to Jin Zhihui for six years? Even if you were to pay a higher interest rate, you wouldn’t need nearly one hundred thousand spirit stones, would you?” Ye Mo’s tone was even colder as he swept the rest of the group who were frightened and said, “Not only are you not grateful for Hou Hou’s kindness in letting you stay for six years, but you ask her for spirit stones every day. You don’t have any respect for Hou Hou Hou’s master, and you don’t have any respect for the rules of Dancheng? A mere Golden Dan, is it great?”
When he said this, Ye Mo suddenly snorted coldly, and several cultivators present immediately trembled in their hearts and minds, and the lowest cultivator even spurted out another mouthful of blood.
After coldly humming, Ye Mo said in an increasingly harsh tone, “I heard Hou Hou say that in ten years’ time, you will even take away this courtyard, if this is not oppression of low level cultivators, then what is considered oppression of low level cultivators. Do I need to call the guards to come and ask you to make your reasons clear?”
Several cultivators instantly blanched, if this reasoning really went to the Dancheng guards, it was indeed them oppressing low level cultivators.
“Senior, junior has been in the middle of cultivation, competing has forgotten that sister Zhi Zhi has finished paying back the spirit stones, junior will move out immediately.” A bald-headed cultivator was the quickest to react, he immediately turned back to his residence after he finished speaking, simply packed up his things and left immediately.
“Leave a debit note.” Ye Mo said even though he didn’t know if there were any IOUs. He didn’t expect that when he said that, the cultivator really left a divine sense jade slip.
When the rest of the cultivators saw an entry leave, they all knew that Jin Zhi Chang had a master like Ye Mo, so their thoughts of continuing to hog the courtyard were no longer practical, and they all immediately hurriedly packed up their things and left the small courtyard in a huff.
“Master, that’s all?” Jin Zhi Chang thought that Master would return the spirit stones to them when he called them out, but he didn’t expect that he would call them away with just a few words.
After saying that, Hou Jin patted her chest and said, “I should have known that I would have used this method too, I was foolish enough to give them spirit stones early.”
Ye Mo sighed and said, “I can use this method, but you can’t. Do you think these few people don’t know that they have to save a lot of spirit stones by living here? That is because they are bullying you for not having an entry to help. You have to remember that in order for other people to reason with you, you have to be strong. Without strength, there is no reasoning.”
Jin Zhi Chang nodded, she had understood the meaning of Ye Mo’s words. No matter where one was, reason was based on strength.
