Chapter Seventy-Nine: An Unexpected Encounter with an Old Acquaintance

  "Huh, Liu Shixiong, isn't that little guy in front the same one we met last time?" As Xiao Fan walked on the street, a group of people behind him were staring at his back with malice.

  This group of people is the same group of outer disciples of Sanjue Gate that Xiao Fang and Xiaobai met in Sanjue City. Since being severely dealt with by Xiaobai on that day, Liu Zhigang and others returned to Sanjue Gate for rest and recuperation for more than two months, until recently they recovered.

  A group of people's hatred for Xiao Pangzi and Xiao Fan can be said to be deeply ingrained, they hate that they cannot flay Xiao Pangzi and Xiao Fan alive. They have been constantly asking others about Xiao Pangzi and Xiao Fan's news recently, hoping to find the two to avenge themselves, but with their status, it is impossible for them to know Xiao Pangzi and Xiao Fan's news.

  "It's actually this kid, great, I finally found him." The speaker was none other than Liu Zhigang, who had been beaten up the worst by Xiao Pangzi.

  "Master brother, what should we do?" a disciple asked Liu Zhigang.

  Liu Zhigang stared at Xiao Fan, his eyes gleaming with a sinister light. Then, he smiled slyly: "I heard that Yang Ming's younger brother Yang Wei was crippled by someone. Yang Ming was furious and posted a task in the Three Extremes Sect, offering a reward of ten mid-grade spirit stones to anyone who could provide information about the person who crippled his brother. You go tell Yang Ming Shixiong that we found someone in the Three Extremes Sect who looks very similar to the person who crippled his brother."

  "Big brother, you're going to get me killed! Yang Ming is a outer sect disciple and an enemy of mine. If he finds out I deceived him, he'll kill me!" The disciple said with a bitter face.

  Outer disciples of the Three Absolutes Sect are those who have passed the trial and entered the sect, but no elder is willing to accept them as apprentices. As a result, they can only cultivate on their own and earn spirit stones and techniques by completing tasks.

  The outer door disciples of the Three Extremes Gate have tens of thousands of people, and Yang Ming can become the first person among the outer door disciples. His strength is extraordinary, and his personality is ruthless. Those who offend him will never have a good day, so that disciple hesitated for a moment, not daring to deceive him.

  "You're stupid, I didn't tell you to directly tell Yang Ming that the other person is him, just said it's a bit similar. With Yang Ming's personality, he will definitely rush over immediately. When he finds out this guy is not the one he's looking for, Yang Ming will definitely get angry, and then this guy will be in trouble." Liu Zhigang said.

  "Yes, and although our Three Absolute Sect doesn't prohibit disciples from sparring with each other, we can't kill fellow sect members. No matter what, Yang Ming wouldn't dare break the sect rules to kill you." Another person added.

  "Master is wise, this way, that kid will definitely be severely punished. As for Yang Ming, it's not our fault." Another disciple said with a smile.

  "It's just the effect we want, you little kid, hurry up and go with us." Liu Zhigang said as he quietly followed Xiao Fan with a few others, leaving only one last disciple behind. After standing still for a moment, he gritted his teeth and quickly turned around to fly away and report back to Yang Ming.

  On the bustling and extraordinary street, Xiao Fan did not put out his spiritual sense, but walked slowly, curiously looking at things beside him.

  Many things on the street were novel to Xiao Fan, and there were many things that Xiao Fan had never seen before, such as vendors selling magical artifacts, including dice-shaped artifacts, jade seals, and precious tripods...

  There were also some dark and mysterious firebolts that could trigger massive explosions after being thrown out, similar to the bombs Xiao Fan had seen in his previous life.

  "Look quickly, that fatty has cut out something good again..."

  "Let's go take a look."

  When Xiao Fan was walking along the road, a noisy sound came over, and in front of him, people's heads were shaking, many people surrounded a small stall by the roadside to watch the excitement.

  "It seems interesting, let's go take a look."

  Anyway, with nothing better to do, Xiao Fan didn't mind being a spectator for once, so he followed along and plunged into the crowd, looking inside with a curious expression.

  "Wow, such a rich spiritual energy, and it's actually another mid-grade spirit stone. This is the fifth one already."

  "Haha, sorry about that, just luck, just luck."

  When Xiao Fan raised his head, he saw a very sly-looking little fatty holding a piece of middle-grade spirit stone the size of a fist, laughing triumphantly.

  "I wipe... how is it Little Fatty Duan Fei."

  Xiao Fan was shocked and didn't expect that he would run into Xiao Pangzi while casually strolling around. What a coincidence!

  At this moment, Little Fatty was holding a mid-grade spirit stone in his hand, extremely pleased and proudly laughing. First, he pretended to be elegant and courteous, bowing to the surrounding crowd, before putting the mid-grade spirit stone into his storage bag.

  In front of Little Fatty, there was a small stall, and the owner was a young man in black clothes. At this moment, he had a long face, as if he was about to cry.

  "It seems like a gamble."

  Xiao Fan was somewhat curious and asked the people around him, finally understanding that this scene was indeed a stone gambling game.

  On the small stall, dozens of ore were placed, which were brought out from the Ling Stone Mine. Some may contain Ling Stone, and some may not. Each piece of ore was sold at the price of a low-grade Ling Stone. After purchasing, no matter what was cut out, it belonged to the customer. It can be said that buying this kind of ore is a gamble. Those who are lucky enough to cut out mid-grade or high-grade Ling Stones from the ore will make a fortune, while those who are unlucky may get nothing, and one low-grade Ling Stone would be wasted.

  "Isn't it simple? A person with a stronger cultivation only needs to observe with one divine sense." Xiao Fan was puzzled.

  "These spirit stones were sealed by the great divine communicator when they were transported out of the mine, hiding their aura. Ordinary people can't sense the aura inside, and those true strongmen, although they can sense everything inside, but with their identity and status, how would they come to buy this kind of ore? You know that this type of ore is the worst, usually only low-level disciples would come to buy it." A young man next to Xiao Fan replied.

  "I see, thank you."

  Xiao Fan nodded slightly, but in his heart he didn't think it was difficult. When he released his spiritual power, he clearly felt that among the large pile of minerals on the ground stall, there was a faint wave of spiritual energy emanating from one of them, obviously containing a spirit stone. However, this little spiritual energy fluctuation was really too small, and it was obvious that it was only an inferior spirit stone.

  "Is it because of the special spiritual power? If that's really the case, then I've struck gold." Xiao Fan thought to himself, his heart filled with great joy. If spiritual power really had a special effect, wouldn't he be making a huge profit?

  "Huh? Xiao Fan, what are you doing here?" Just as Xiao Fan was thinking about this, the crowd around him had already begun to disperse. Little Fatty discovered him and excitedly rushed over.

  "It's been a long time." Xiao Fang smiled as he looked at Little Fatty.

  "Haha, let's go, I'll take you to find Chuchu and Qianjian. Today we're going to get drunk." The little fatty excitedly pulled Xiao Fan forward as they walked.

  "Huh? It's actually that little fatty, the two of them are actually together, great!" Liu Zhigang and others who were secretly following Xiao Fang suddenly felt overjoyed.

  "Although Xiao Pangzi's cultivation is not bad, he is definitely no match for Yang Ming. After all, Yang Ming has been the top outer disciple for many years and it's said that an elder has already taken a liking to him and plans to take him as his apprentice." Liu Zhigang whispered softly, continuing to carefully follow Xiao Fan and Xiao Pangzi.
