Just as the thought passed through the Lin Ancestor’s mind...
A bolt of Punishment Lightning fell from the sky, instantly reducing that descendant to nothing but ash!
The Lin Ancestor’s eyes widened in shock!
What was going on?
He had only just thought about it; why had the boy actually been struck dead?
After he was killed, several more people in Tiansheng City were struck dead by lightning in succession.
Without exception, they were all fellows who had borrowed spirit stones from Lu Ming.
The group of cultivators who had been watching the situation and deciding not to pay back the money were instantly terrified.
Sect Master Han couldn’t help but sigh in relief; thank goodness he had borrowed for a three-month term!
He still had time to raise the spirit stones!
Lu Ming was also very generous: “Death cancels the debt...”
The Lin Ancestor arrived just in time to hear this.
“Saint Lu, what did you do to my junior?”
Lu Ming stared at the Lin Ancestor with a smile:
“Him? Oh, he swore a Heavenly Dao Oath...”
Hearing this, the Lin Ancestor almost spat out a mouthful of blood!
Since when was the Heavenly Dao Oath so effective? It even bothered with such trivial matters?
He looked at Lu Ming, said nothing, and left immediately.
Even if he wanted to do something, he couldn’t do it openly!
Upon returning, he gave instructions to his family’s Soul Transformation cultivators.
After entering the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm, find an opportunity to kill Lu Ming!
After the other debtors realized that not repaying the spirit stones would truly result in being struck dead by Punishment Lightning...
They all hurriedly prepared spirit stones to come and settle their accounts!
Some who truly couldn’t come up with the money borrowed more spirit stones from Lu Ming first to pay off the old debt.
However, for these new loans, the repayment periods were longer and the interest was higher.
Lu Ming still very kindly lent them the money!
Doing business required flexibility!
This scene left Ji Chen and the others exclaiming in shock!
Money could actually be made this way!
However, they didn’t plan on competing with Lu Ming for business.
He felt it was enough to make his own business bigger and stronger; one shouldn’t be greedy!
Subsequently, Ji Chen still led his junior brothers to the streets to hook their targets!
Because word of what happened last night had spread, there was no business the next day!
Ji Chen saw this wouldn’t work!
After some discussion, Ji Chen and the others decided to change their strategy.
Only one or two people would go out at a time.
They pretended to be wealthy young masters, pretended to be injured... pretended to be naive... or pretended to be lost young beauties. They even changed their residence.
Their previous location had been exposed; sometimes, people were scared away as soon as they were brought over!
Lu Ming and the others also followed Ji Chen in moving to a new place!
Subsequently, the two groups moved from place to place within Tiansheng City, fleecing a massive wave of “sheep.”
They fleeced so hard that the public security in Tiansheng City reached a point where people didn’t even close their doors at night!
They didn’t even activate protection arrays while cultivating.
Because no one dared to bet on whether that open door was intentionally left open by a cultivator of the Guiyi Sword Sect.
It wasn’t that no one complained to the Tiansheng Sect.
But the word given by the Guiyi Sword Sect was: “We didn’t strike first!”
“They were the ones who tried to rob us first!”
Some factions were indignant, and some Unity-stage cultivators wanted to teach them a lesson.
As it turned out, Ji Chen had already called over the Sword Lunatic!
He quickly put several Unity-stage cultivators in their place and even made a huge profit in the process!
Faced with this situation, the crowd of cultivators could only swallow their resentment and be “good people”!
They thought that by cultivating immortality, they only needed to avoid offending seniors.
Who would have thought that one day, such a bunch of rascals would appear in the cultivation world!
The problem was that this bunch of rascals had strength and were incredibly stubborn.
They had even mastered the art of “fishing law enforcement.”
The cultivators felt that in their entire lives, they had never been so devoid of greed!
Seeing a weak cultivator, they simply didn’t dare to bully them...
This situation persisted until the opening of the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm!
The Second Elder of the Tiansheng Sect, who had been secretly observing and monitoring Lu Ming, only saw them earning spirit stones.
As for the immortal spirit water, he hadn’t seen Lu Ming use it at all.
“Saint Lu, the secret realm is about to open. Let’s go together!”
“Sure!”
Hearing Ji Chen’s invitation, Lu Ming agreed without hesitation!
Then, Lu Ming led Big Yellow and the rest straight onto the Guiyi Sword Sect’s spirit boat.
It was a spirit boat shaped like a giant sword.
The boat was refined as a single whole, its hull sharp and imposing, surrounded by a dense, biting sword intent that was sharp and intimidating.
At a glance, it perfectly matched the aura of the Guiyi Sword Sect—majestic and peerlessly sharp.
Lu Ming watched with envy, then thought of his own “worn-out chic” spirit boat.
He couldn’t help but turn to Wang Defa and say:
“Look at their spirit boat, so heroic and overbearing!”
“Then look at ours...”
At this point, Lu Ming stopped talking.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to speak, but the spirit boat had started!
“Boom boom boom... crack crack crack...”
Lu Ming stared with his mouth wide open at the white smoke billowing from the back, accompanied by a trail of sparks and lightning!
“Hehe...”
At this moment, Wang Defa chuckled:
“Great Sect Master, this is the Guiyi Sword Sect’s newly customized spirit boat. They asked me to be the design consultant...”
Lu Ming’s mouth twitched, and he didn’t want to say a word!
What kind of aesthetic was this!
Just as he turned his head, he saw the Tiansheng Sect’s spirit boat flying past nearby!
The Tiansheng Sect’s spirit boat appeared to be carved from gilded divine halls, with magnificent palaces standing upon its hull.
A majestic righteousness soared straight into the nine heavens, fully displaying the air of a great sect hegemon.
Look, that is what a proper spirit boat should look like, okay?
Just then, the Sword Lunatic came to Lu Ming’s side:
“Saint Lu, you also think the Tiansheng Sect’s spirit boat is ugly, right? I think so too...”
“Only our two families’ spirit boats are good-looking...”
Lu Ming looked at the Sword Lunatic in shock and only spoke after a long while:
“I think your aesthetic is truly... amazing!”
As he spoke, he even gave the Sword Lunatic a thumbs-up.
“Right? I think so too. We’re both amazing!”
The Sword Lunatic said proudly.
Lu Ming: “...”
“Speed up! Let Saint Lu experience our new spirit boat...”
As soon as the Sword Lunatic finished speaking, Hua Lao Liu, who was piloting the spirit boat, immediately controlled the boat’s formations to accelerate.
“Boom boom boom... crack crack crack...”
The sound of the spirit boat threatening to fall apart intensified, and the white smoke from the rear billowed out even more furiously.
“Whoosh...”
The Guiyi Sword Sect’s giant sword spirit boat directly overtook the Tiansheng Sect’s boat.
The white mist and the sparks and lightning inside it sprayed directly onto the Tiansheng Sect boat’s protection screen!
“What on earth is that?”
The Tiansheng Sect Ancestor, who was sitting on the spirit boat enjoying the scenery, saw the white smoke and sword-shaped little flames spraying onto the protection light screen.
His face instantly darkened. Who would dare to be so bold as to actually fly in front of their Tiansheng Sect?
“Reporting to the Ancestor, it’s the Guiyi Sword Sect’s spirit boat!”
A disciple who was paying attention to the surroundings reported.
The Tiansheng Sect Ancestor frowned. “Lunatics!”
But looking at the white smoke and sword-shaped little flames ahead, the Tiansheng Sect Ancestor felt that while the damage was negligible, the insult was extreme!
What did this person mean? Were they mocking him because of the recent trouble the Tiansheng Sect had faced?
He also knew about what the Guiyi Sword Sect had been doing in Tiansheng City lately.
However, the Tiansheng Sect had been busy lately and hadn’t bothered with them!
“Should we overtake them?”
The Tiansheng Sect disciple asked.
The Tiansheng Sect Ancestor shook his head.
As the dignified Ancestor of the Tiansheng Sect, there was no need to bicker with them over such a small matter.
It would make him look like he lacked magnanimity! And it was boring!
The Tiansheng Sect Ancestor’s eyes flickered. Let them be arrogant for a while...
Subsequently, he walked into a room on the spirit boat.
Out of sight, out of mind!
