In the tea room, tea was spilled all over the floor.
Tea leaves tumbled out.
Immortal Xu fell onto the fragments of the tea table somewhat embarrassingly.
In her anger, there was also a touch of astonishment.
She originally wanted to retaliate, but in a blink of an eye, she extinguished the anger in her heart.
She looked at Gu An and said:
"Junior Brother, I..."
"Call me Senior Brother." Gu An corrected.
A fierce look flashed in Immortal Xu’s eyes, but she corrected herself: "Senior Brother, it was the junior sister who offended Senior Brother just now, but does Senior Brother think he owns the tea room?
If things escalate, can Senior Brother withstand the people behind the tea room?"
Immortal Xu was astonished in her heart, but as long as she recovered from the present, she would make the person before her pay the price.
"Indeed." The elder who spoke earlier had already arrived behind Gu An.
Not only that, the other three had also surrounded the person.
Gu An looked at them and said: "Do you want to gang up? I am merely reasoning with you, and you force me like this?"
"Sometimes reasoning only works if the other party is willing, don’t think too highly of yourself." The elder spoke disdainfully.
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu An stepped forward.
A gust of wind howled, and he instantly reached the opponent.
The opponent’s pupils contracted, and power surfaced in the palm.
Intending to severely injure the person before him.
However, just as the palm strike was executed, Gu An directly grabbed his arm, and with his other hand, he grabbed the opponent’s hair.
He lifted the opponent’s head upwards and then, with a snap, the hand holding the arm crushed the bones.
Blood spilled.
The elder was in excruciating pain, horror spread in his eyes, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
The threat of death was imminent.
Thus, Gu An looked at the head he was holding and said: "Junior Brother doesn’t like to reason?"
"I do, I love to reason." The elder quickly spoke as he looked into Gu An’s cold eyes.
Thus, Gu An casually threw the person next to Immortal Xu, with a bang.
Many things were broken.
Thus, Gu An then said:
"Junior Brother is indeed a reasonable person."
The three people standing to the side didn’t know what to do for a moment.
But they all wisely took a step back.
Gu An had just severely injured a Perfect Foundation Establishment cultivator, and they couldn’t resist.
However, Gu An once again came to another Perfect Foundation Establishment cultivator and crushed the person’s arm with a move, then kicked, causing him to heavily fall next to Immortal Xu.
Bang.
More things broke.
Cries of pain arose.
The other two were completely terrified, seeing Gu An’s gaze moving, they didn’t hesitate and immediately knelt down.
This surprised Gu An.
When he was about to speak, they directly took out their Storage Treasures: "Thank you Senior Brother for instructing in the technique of Body Cultivation, we are deeply grateful, the only thing we can do is to offer all our savings to Senior Brother."
A broken arm means a difficult future path.
Lacking Spirit Stones, one can still earn them.
Gu An looked at the two, frowning: "What do you mean by this, fellow Junior Brothers? I am not such a person."
The two looked at each other nervously; the younger one, not daring to look up at Gu An, soon spoke again:
"Just now we saw the Senior Brother using his hands, these Storage Treasures fell from Senior Brother’s body, they must be Senior Brother’s."
"Yes, mine too." The other Late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator also spoke.
Gu An pointed to himself and said: "Mine?"
"Yes." The two said in unison.
"Then thank you, both Junior Brothers, for your integrity, otherwise I would have lost so many Spirit Stones today." Saying this, Gu An gestured and the two Storage Treasures fell into his hands.
Being able to help Senior Brother is our honor." The two spoke respectfully.
Thus, Gu An no longer paid attention to them, but took the Storage Treasures to Immortal Xu and said:
"Junior Sister just said I need to compensate how many Spirit Stones?"
"Senior Brother jests, there’s no such thing." Immortal Xu immediately said.
Hearing this, Gu An’s expression grew dark.
Then a foot fell down.
Crack!
Immortal Xu’s arm was crushed beneath the heel, and a scream followed.
She wailed in horror, not even knowing what she had said wrong.
In that instant, she regretted provoking the person before her.
Thus, Gu An coldly said, "What do you mean, Junior Sister? Are you afraid that I won’t be able to compensate?"
"No, no," Immortal Xu covered her arm in pain as she spoke.
Gu An shook his head and continued, "Forget it, if Junior Sister feels so, it’s fine, I’m just asking how will you compensate for breaking my teacup?
Just now, you agreed these were mine, and I compensated with a set of Spirit Stones.
Now, my teacup is broken behind you."
Saying that, Gu An pointed to the four teacups behind.
Immortal Xu wanted to say that they were still owned by their teahouse, but she quickly changed her tune and said, "It should be compensated, here are three hundred Spirit Stones, I hope it can compensate for Brother’s loss."
After collecting the Spirit Stones, Gu An looked at the other two.
They also each gave two hundred Spirit Stones.
Gu An suddenly had seven hundred Spirit Stones, plus the other two’s, making a total of eleven hundred Spirit Stones.
These people are really wealthy.
Each one has so many Spirit Stones.
If he sold the other items from the Storage Treasure, that would be at least fifteen hundred Spirit Stones.
"By the way, who is behind the teahouse?" Gu An asked.
Immortal Xu hesitated for a moment, then was about to speak.
However, she was interrupted by Gu An saying, "Forget it, I don’t want to hear it anymore."
Afterwards, Gu An looked to the two who were unharmed and asked, "Tired?"
"Tired." Both frightened themselves into unconsciousness.
Thus, Gu An knocked Immortal Xu and the two others unconscious, then broke open the window and left.
He left these people here mainly to see if the incident from last time would happen again.
Someone wanted to kill them but had no opportunity.
Now that the opportunity has arrived, let’s see if anyone dares to make a move.
People like Immortal Xu must have offended several not-so-powerful people.
These people were just a side cleanup; Gu An didn’t want to complicate matters.
Unfortunately, these people always sought trouble with him.
Fortunately, he himself was not a good person and had higher cultivation than them.
Otherwise, today without coughing up the Spirit Stones, they wouldn’t be able to leave this place.
Unfortunately, before the big knife fell, he dared not kill arbitrarily.
Once people from the Law Enforcement Hall came, things would become troublesome.
Even getting promoted to Golden Core would not be easy to resolve.
He still needed to rely on others’ protection.
Now, he had offended Senior Brother Ye and the teahouse.
He had certainly made quite a few enemies.
He hoped that they wouldn’t hold grudges in the future, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to sleep at night.
Not removing the roots when cutting the grass is troublesome.
In the future, if he were to take action, he should ensure not to leave such troubles.
Afterward, Gu An walked towards the square where the discussions of laws were held; today he wanted to stir up trouble there.
However, what the final result would be, he couldn’t predict.
If it did not meet his expectations and draw attention from other people of Qianchen Peak, then he could only rely on Chu Meng.
Then he arrived at the square, sat down cross-legged.
He wanted to test if he could detoxify the poison in his body.
This was implanted during his Qi Refining Early Stage, and it theoretically should only incapacitate up to the Foundation Establishment; it shouldn’t affect a Golden Core.
Afterward, he began to circulate his bodily power, trying to force out or neutralize the poison.
Unfortunately, by dawn.
The poison was still not eliminated.
This left him somewhat astonished.
Why was this the case?
"Back then, to a cultivator at the Qi Refining Second Layer, such a powerful poison was used?"
