Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All Novel - Chapter 126

126 This Disciple Still Have Debts

Hearing Master Lingxu’s words, Dong Xi smiled bitterly and looked at him, saying, “Master, it’s not that I don’t want to learn, but I still have debts to pay!”

When Master Lingxu heard this, he asked in surprise, “Where did the debt come from? It’s already been half a month and you still haven’t paid off your due of Spirit Restore Pills?”

His little disciple had only entered the sect for a little more than a year, so how could she have so much debt?

Sighing, Dong Xi explained to Master Lingxu, “Second Senior Brother gave me a flying magic tool before, so I agreed to help him pay off the 60 years of alchemy task he owed the sect. When we started refining pills last month, Second Senior Brother rented this furnace to me, and I promised to give Senior Brother one pill for every successful batch as rent.”

!!
Master Lingxu, “…”

This Song Qingfeng! Sure enough, the richer you are, the stingier you are! He even had to be so calculative with his Junior Sister!

“I understand,” said Master Lingxu.

With that, Lingxu took out a furnace from his storage ring and passed it to Dong Xi. Master Lingxu said, “This alchemy cauldron is for you. Return your Senior Brother’s one to him. We are alchemy grandmasters. Other than having a lot of pills, we also have a lot of alchemy furnaces!”

Dong Xi looked at the furnace that her master had given her. It was black and gold in color, and there were many runes on it.

Dong Xi was stunned for a moment, and then said with some worry, “Master, my spiritual energy seems to be a little different. I blew up five of them before, but what if… this one…”

Without waiting for Dong Xi to finish, Master Lingxu already understood what she meant. He said, “It’s fine, this is very sturdy, don’t worry!”

Dong Xi was pleasantly surprised. Her eyes flashed with a touch of brilliance and she immediately cupped his fists and said, “Thank you, Master, for your reward! This disciple can not thank you enough!”

Then, Dong Xi put away Song Qingfeng’s furnace and put away the one her master had given him. She was ready to continue making pills.

When Master Lingxu saw Dong Xi’s actions, he thought that Dong Xi wanted to try out the feeling first. Thus, he stood at the side and watched. If there was anything wrong, he could give some pointers.

However, he did not expect that after Dong Xi finished refining one batch, she would continue to refine the next batch as if there was no one else around. Master Lingxu stood at the side and watched Dong Xi refine five batches of pills. When her spirit Qi was exhausted, she ate a Spirit Restore Pill with great familiarity and then continued to refine.

Master Lingxu, who was ignored by Dong Xi, could not help but shout, “Xiaoxi.”

Only then did Dong Xi come back to her senses. She looked at Master Lingxu behind her and seemed to be even more shocked than him. Dong Xi said, “Master, what’s the matter?”

Why aren’t you leaving yet?

It was just that she did not finish her sentence, but Master Lingxu could already tell.

“Have you always been refining pills like this?” Master Lingxu asked.

Dong Xi shook his head. Just as Master Lingxu was about to heave a sigh of relief, he heard Dong Xi say indifferently, “I only do this during the day. There’s moonlight at night, so I still have to cultivate.”

Master Lingxu, “…”

Th-this was simply the best role model! If the alchemy sect’s disciples were all so diligent, not everyone would have so many debts on them, and the alchemy sect would have long become the richest in the Immortal cultivation world!

Although Master Lingxu was shocked, he only gave her two bottles of Fasting Pills and left.

As soon as Master Lingxu left, Dong Xi immediately sent a message to Song Qingfeng.

[Second Senior Brother, I’ll return the furnace to you. You’re a loan shark, I can’t afford to borrow it!]

Song Qingfeng also replied quickly.

[Why? The debts have all been settled?]

Dong Xi proudly sent a voice message saying, “Master, you’ve come to see me and even gave me a furnace. I will never be exploited by you again!”

Hearing Dong Xi’s proud voice, Song Qingfeng laughed. This little girl, I wonder where she learned so many new words. Song Qingfeng also sent a voice message, “That’s hard to say.”

At first, Dong Xi thought that Song Qingfeng was trying to save face, but Song Qingfeng immediately sent a voice message saying, “A squirrel suddenly ran into my cave and bit my spirit plant.”

Dong Xi’s smug expression instantly disappeared. A thought ran through her mind. Could she pretend not to know this squirrel?

Song Qingfeng sent another voice message, breaking Dong Xi’s thoughts. Song Qingfeng said, “I can sense your aura on this squirrel, why is that?”

Dong Xi, “…”

Everyone else would become rich if they worked hard, but why was it that the harder she worked, the more debts she had?

Dong Xi sent a voice message with a cold face, “Keep a close eye on her. If she destroys anything, I won’t pay for it.”

Dong Xi’s heart was bleeding.

She had told Songsong not to go out, but now she was in even more debt.
