I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense-Chapter 415: 416: Have you ever heard of Liangpin Puzi?

Li Xiaobai asked.

“Because within the First Battlefield, Young Master Wang has been committing atrocities, and to escape his clutches, we had no choice but to enter this place,”

Qin Huan recounted the situation in the First Battlefield, and Li Xiaobai nodded repeatedly as he listened; such occurrences were not uncommon.

There was a man with the surname Wang on the battlefield who, relying on the fact that he was the son of City Lord Wang Guan from the Second Battlefield, arbitrarily bullied cultivators in the barracks. In recent years, he had committed numerous acts of bullying men and overpowering women.

Qin Huan and her group had also been left with no alternative but to come out and look for an opportunity to make a breakthrough. freёnovelkiss.com

“The Wang Family is truly detestable; whether it be the masters or the servants, they all carry a sense of superiority, looking down on everyone. I hate that I was born on the border, if I had been born in Southern Ming, perhaps I would never have encountered such things. I’ve heard that in Southern Ming, there is the Kingdom of Women, specifically established to protect female cultivators oppressed by the world!”

Lin Lan said bitterly, her eyes filled with resentment when she mentioned the Wang Family.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaobai’s eyes lit up, and a plan began to take shape in his mind.

“Did you say that the Wang Family often oppresses female cultivators?”

“It’s worse than oppression, they don’t even regard female cultivators as human. He even built a small dark room specifically to throw tired female cultivators into like caged beasts; it’s utterly heartless!”

Qin Huan said indignantly.

“And City Lord Mei doesn’t care?”

Li Xiaobai continued to ask, his eyes growing ever brighter.

“City Lord Mei and Wang Guan are friends and have always turned a blind eye to it, not inquiring at all,”

Qin Huan said.

“Understood. Don’t worry, such days will soon come to an end,”

Li Xiaobai said, nodding.

“Are you willing to reach out and rescue us cultivators?”

Qin Huan’s face lit up with joy as she spoke.

“I don’t have time to deal with these matters. Others will take care of it later. Just rest and recuperate for a few days,”

Li Xiaobai spoke lightly.

“I don’t ask for a great person like you to help us eliminate the villains. I only ask for your guidance. I am willing to serve you day and night!”

Qin Huan was ready to take a risk, speaking with determination in her eyes, as waiting for rescue was too intangible; she was here to seek an opportunity.

She believed herself to be quite attractive, with a good figure and demeanor, or else she wouldn’t have caught the attention of that son of the Wang Family.

Meeting such an influential figure by chance was her opportunity if she could grasp it. To receive his guidance, or perhaps a random gift of a Cultivation Technique, would surely enable her to one day take revenge on Young Master Wang.

“Senior Sister Qin, you…”

The others all had complex expressions; they had not expected her to go to such lengths.

“Er… Have you never heard of the Superior Good’s Store?”

Li Xiaobai scratched his head, asking with some confusion.

What would he want with this woman? Even if he burned her, it wouldn’t add much to his nutrients, and it would be better to divert it to increase his Spirit Stone income.

“We’ve never heard of it.”

Qin Huan honestly replied, looking at Li Xiaobai with eyes full of hope.

“How about Tangneng First-class?”

Li Xiaobai continued to ask.

“It’s not something I’ve heard of before; the borderlands have been isolated from the outside world for far too long, and information is relatively blocked.”

Qin Huan explained.

“So, do you usually read the Immortal Spirit Daily?”

Li Xiaobai continued to ask with patience.

“I’ve never read it; Elder Tianji’s newspaper mostly recounts the strange and curious events of the Mainland, which could shake the morale of the borderland soldiers if read too frequently.”

Qin Huan said.

“Then take a look now, as the Immortal Spirit Daily has opened a borderland section.”

Flipping his wrist, Li Xiaobai took out a copy of the Immortal Spirit Daily and began to show them word for word.

As Qin Huan and the others took the paper, they were full of curiosity, not understanding what the big shot meant.

It seemed the situation was a bit off, they were clearly seeking guidance from the big shot, yet he was teaching them to read the newspaper?

Could the newspaper help them improve their cultivation level?

But immediately, their gaze was deeply captured by the bold headlines on the front page.

“Are you still troubled by cultivation, feeling down because your talent isn’t high enough? Holy City sincerely launches the Tangneng First-class and Good Goods Store brands, allowing cultivators to leap like carp to become dragons, living the life they desire!”

“Holy City opens with a grand customer appreciation sale, offering a second item at half price; take advantage of this opportunity that won’t come again!”

“With just one Huazi, sweeping through all Flesh Mountains on the battlefield, cultivators cried tears of joy overnight!”

Bold fonts entered their sight, making them breathless with heaving chests.

The item called Huazi seemingly capable of improving cultivation levels was being sold at a low price in the Holy City—one Huazi for only one Lower Grade Spirit Stone, which was quite cheap. Moreover, soaking in the bathhouse also seemed to provide many benefits.

Huazi could enhance one’s intelligence, while the bathhouse could improve cultivation level—weren’t these the treasures they had been searching for?

The Holy City was now openly selling these treasures, so what were they still doing searching in the borderlands!

If they had known earlier, they should have set off later and might have seen this Immortal Spirit Daily earlier, avoiding the need to take risks in the borderlands.

“Senior, is what’s written in this Immortal Spirit Daily true?”

After reading, Lin Lan asked incredulously; not to mention whether such miraculous items really existed in the world, even if they did, how could they be sold so openly? In their understanding, such high-level treasures should be hoarded by major powers and secretly given to the most outstanding disciples, not auctioned in shops like in the Holy City—such publicity would be doubted even if true.

“Would I lie about this? It’s even truer than pure gold. The treasures you took life-threatening risks to obtain in the borderlands might not even compare to soaking for a day in Tangneng First-class.”

“Hurry up and go; if you’re late, you’ll have to queue.”

Li Xiaobai said with a smile.

“Thank you for the guidance, senior. We will set out for the Holy City immediately!”

“Go on, and look at the Immortal Spirit Daily more often when you have the chance; it’s beneficial.”

Li Xiaobai waved them off, feeling quite pleased at having successfully turned four cultivators into customers for his shop.

His marketing strategy was indeed correct; he just didn’t know how City Lord Mei would react to the changes in the Holy City, but with Song Que overseeing things, it was unlikely that City Lord Mei would resort to force.

The group of young men and women left quickly, feeling deeply grateful.

Li Xiaobai stroked his chin, feeling secure in his plan. He had been worried about how to deal with City Lord Mei and Wang Guan, but he hadn’t expected such dirty dealings on the battlefield.

Though he wasn’t a match for them, it didn’t mean nobody could deal with the two. On this Mainland, there was a fanatic for women’s rights who would definitely come to the borderlands if the news spread, even if from the ends of the earth.

When the time came, he just needed to put in a little more effort and join forces with Song Que, aiming to take down both battlefields.
