I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

“No word of a lie!”

Meng Shushu said solemnly.

“Alright, I agree!”

Meng Chong agreed immediately without considering the risk possibly involved in fetching things on behalf of someone else.

What danger could a Grandmaster like Meng Shushu face? One strike and he could kill, it’s as easy as pie!

Schemes and tricks crumble in the face of absolute power, paper tigers all of them.

However, caution is still necessary.

“Should we head to Qinglin City now?”

Meng Shushu asked.

“Wait a moment, 1 have some things to sort out. We’ll meet here at this time tomorrow.”

Meng Chong said after thinking for a moment.

He wanted to deliver the robust bone flower to Su Lingxiu.

“Alright, no problem!”

Meng Shushu quickly agreed.

“I’ll be on my way!”

Meng Shushu saluted, and with a blur of his body, he took off at a high speed.

Meng Chong squinted his eyes. The other man moved swiftly. He pondered for a moment. Meng Shushu’s request to retrieve something likely meant that item was being watched.

“A Grade Eight Spiritual Medicine is the price… That item must be incredibly valuable.”

Meng Chong muttered to himself. If the other party harbored ill intentions, he wouldn’t hesitate to counteract them.

With one step, his figure disappeared instantly from the spot, heading straight for the border wasteland.

Given his strength, an average Great Grandmaster wouldn’t be able to follow him silently. Hence, Meng Chong wasn’t worried about being discovered as he made his way to the border wasteland.

Li Xuan was a little surprised. Meng Chong had just gone to the Inner Domain and now he was back.

“Junior Sister, this is the robust bone flower. With this medicine, it’s going to be much easier for you to refine the Evergreen Bone.”

Overjoyed, Su Lingxiu thanked, “Thank you, Second Senior Brother!”

With this robust bone flower and the water spirit grass, she would be able to refine a more potent Evergreen Pill.

“Junior Sister, do you know where Qinglin City is?”

Meng Chong asked.

“Qinglin City?”

Su Lingxiu shook her head and turned to Zhou Ying, “Aunt Zhou, do you know?”

Zhou Ying pondered for a moment and replied, “Qinglin City is where Lanping County borders Yunjiang County, several thousand miles away from Tieshan County.”

“Second Senior Brother, you are going to Qinglin City?”

Su Lingxiu asked curiously.

“I heard there are some interesting things to see there. 1 plan to go for a visit.”

Meng Chong didn’t mention the matter of fetching the item for someone else.

“Master, your disciple is going to the Inner Domain”

After delivering the robust bone flower, Meng Chong set out again for the Inner Domain.

The next day.

At the meeting place, Meng Shushu had arrived, riding in a horse-drawn carriage.

“Hero, from today onwards, you’ll be my coachman, escorting me to Qinglin

City…”

Meng Shushu said as he disguised himself.

“Being a coachman isn’t a problem. My only question is, is there money involved?”

Meng Chong asked gravely.

“The reward of a Grade Eight Spiritual Medicine.”

Meng Shushu was taken aback.

They had already agreed, hadn’t they? Fetch the deposited item from Qinglin City and receive a Grade Eight Spiritual Medicine as the reward.

“Okay, a Grade Eight Spiritual Medicine it is. Let’s draw up a contract. You owe me two Grade Eight Spiritual Medicines.”

Meng Chong took out a pen and paper.

ii

No, when did it become two Grade Eight Spiritual Medicines? It’s one! I hired you to fetch the item, and the reward is a Grade Eight Spiritual Medicine!”

Meng Shushu hurriedly explained.

“Yes, exactly. To help you fetch the item, you agreed to give me one Grade Eight Spiritual Medicine. And for the job of being your coachman, yet another Grade Eight Spiritual Medicine. So isn’t it two in total?”

Meng Chong pointed at his own head, explaining his reasoning to Meng Shushu.

“No, there seems to be a misunderstanding. Acting as a coachman and fetching the item are parts of one task, and the reward is a Grade Eight Spiritual Medicine!”

Meng Shushu was zapped.

With a grimace, Meng Chong bellowed, “A Grade Eight Spiritual Medicine, and you expect me to both serve as your coachman and fetch the item for you! Do you think I am that cheap? Are you insulting me?!”

Bam!

An ominous aura flickered as Meng Shushu gulped, regretting that he seemed to have picked the wrong person.

With caution he replied, “If we can’t agree on the price, shall we call the deal off?”

Meng Chong nodded, “That works too, but you have to compensate me. After all, I’ve wasted a lot of time on this transaction. Let’s say, a thousand Spirit Crystals.”

Meng Shushu was hopping mad, his Grandmaster aura exploding in all its glory.

“A thousand Spirit Crystals, you’re robbing me!”

Meng Chong raised an eyebrow, sneering, “What, are you trying to intimidate me just because you’re a Grandmaster? You took the initiative to contact me. Now you change your mind, and I’m not supposed to be compensated?”

Meng Shushu took a few deep breaths, gathered his aura, and continued disguising himself, “Alright, two Grade Eight Spiritual Medicines it is.”

“That sounds fair.”

Meng Chong passed over the draft contract.

“Here, sign it.”

Meng Shushu picked up the pen and signed his name on it.

“Valiant man, what should I call you?”

Having finished his disguise, Meng Shushu crawled into the carriage as he asked.

“So you are a relative, my name is Meng Chong!”

After a glance at the document, Meng Chong put it away.

Meng Shushu, he wondered if that was his real name.

“So it’s Brother Meng, 1 am grateful for your assistance during this journey.”

Meng Shushu expressed with a bow.

“No problem!”

Meng Chong nodded.

“Where is the city of Qinglin?”

“From here…”

Meng Chong was driving the carriage straight to Qinglin City. Meng Shushu, after suppressing his aura, was healing his wounds in the carriage.

“Dear relative, do you have some enemies? It seems there’s someone up ahead trying to stop us!”

Not even a day after leaving the county of Tieshan, Meng Chong began to speak.

Meng Shushu’s face turned pale. He lifted a corner of the curtain and glanced ahead. An old man, with feet not touching the ground, was inspecting the passing pedestrians and vehicles.

A Grandmaster martial artist!

His face kept changing colors. How did the old man track him down to such a remote place as Tieshan county?

“Brother Meng, can you prevent him from inspecting the carriage?”

Meng Shushu asked in a somber voice.

He was not confident that his disguise could fool a Grandmaster martial artist.

If his identity was exposed, it would inevitably be guessed that he was going to Qinglin City.

“That is a Grandmaster, very dangerous…”

Just as Meng Shushu was considering how to fool that old man, Meng Chong said seriously, “If you pay more, 1 can go all out. 1’11 be sure to fool him and keep your identity hidden…”

“Trying to make a profit even at the risk of life!”

Meng Shushu cursed in his heart, blaming himself for hiring such a man.

However, he had no choice. In the whole Tieshan County, only the robust and wild Meng Chong was suitable for retrieving that object.

“Ten Spirit Crystals!”

Meng Shushu said through gritted teeth.

“Are you trying to get rid of a beggar?”

Meng Chong expressed his dissatisfaction.

As the carriage was getting closer and closer to the Grandmaster, and his gaze was focusing on them.

Meng Shushu bit the bullet and said, “One hundred Spirit Crystals, not a single one more!”

“Alright, no problem!”

Meng Chong agreed instantly.

“The person in the carriage, come out!”

The Grandmaster blocking the road called out in a deep voice.

“Get out of the way!”

Meng Chong screamed angrily, his fierce aura immediately spreading out.

“A Grandmaster who stops and robs others on the road, isn’t it shameful? Is the person in the carriage someone you can meet?”

Meng Shushu sitting in the carriage turned pale with fear.

“Can I really rely on this guy?!”

With such a bad attitude, and even towards a Grandmaster martial artist, wouldn’t this lead to a fight?

“You’re asking for death!”

As expected, the Grandmaster was enraged.

But before he could make his move, Meng Chong’s eyes widened, and his formidable aura burst out, “Are you asking for death?”

He placed his hand on his sword hilt.

Gulp!

Meng Shushu swallowed hard. It was very terrifying. Just how strong is this man?

At this moment, he felt that the one driving the carriage outside was not a man, but a terrifying beast!

The Grandmaster who was blocking the road also looked terrified. He moved back a few steps, took a deep breath, and said, “My apologies for the disturbance, I was in a hurry to find an enemy!”

Meng Chong, holding the whip, said, “An apology is enough? Compensation!”

The Grandmaster was taken aback, compensation?

“Sir, you…”

“Hmm?”

With one look from Meng Chong, the Grandmaster immediately relented.

He pulled out a Spirit Note, flung it to Meng Chong, and said, “A hundred Spirit Crystals, my deepest apologies!”

“Hmm, you know the drill.”

Meng Chong nodded in satisfaction, put the Spirit Note away, retracted his domineering aura, and drove the carriage away.

The old man looked at the departing carriage with a silent face. What was this all about?

A grandmaster who has stooped to robbery on the street, how poor can you be?

“Who is in the carriage? Is the driver a Grandmaster? Could it be a Great Grandmaster?”

The old man was shocked.

The driver was too strong! The moment his aura burst out, it gave him a suffocating feeling..
