Chapter 0002 Peculiar Stone
“Brother Ming, you were truly dousto as they walked down the road
Lin Ming res that he had said back then had sounded grand and impressive, however, it would be extremely difficult for him to surpass Zhu Yan The amount of effort that he would be required to pay would be colossal
He has no fear of hard work or bitterness But the same could not be said for internal injuries Medicinal herbs were needed to heal those injuries and those medicines were undoubtedly expensive
Lin Xiaodong was able to guess what Lin Ming was thinking and said “Brother Ming, all you need to do is train hard As for the financial side of things, I will figure it out for you Just be rest assured, even though h, it is still nothing to scoff at Taking out a few hundred gold liangs is not impossible for me”
Lin Ming stopped walking and turned around to face Lin Xiaodong In life, there are many fair weather friends, but those ould offer help in ti thanks would be hypocritical Yet, Lin Ming still stopped and said in a serious tone “Xiaodong, thank you”
“Enough, stop this This is toothe entrance assessment for the Seven Profound Martial House is si, I will bet on you After you become a master in the future, you must help cover my ass a bit, hahaha”
Lin Ming gave a hearty shed “En! With a brother like you, I will definitely persevere onwards onto the Martial Way”
By the ti place, it was already evening This roo this period of tian its registration for entrance assess places within Sky Fortune City would be packed and inns full The rental rates would undoubtedly increase by half Thus, many applicants would choose to rent a room Naturally, that in itself was not a cheap option
Lin Ming had rented a single room of only ten square meters in area with a very siin his meditation upon the bed, someone knocked on the door
Lin Ming opened the door to see the landlady standing there The landlady is a roughly fifty years old woman with a somewhat obese body The landlady’s face was usually fierce and harsh, but today she was sporting a pleasant looking s was off
“Landlady, is there anything?”
“This… little fellow, I am sorry, but can you please vacate this room”
“En?” Lin Ming frowned “Why?”
“Hehe, sorry, but I have rented this roo turned around and found ain froly playful manner
Looking at hinized hi behind Zhu Yan and the other youngand Lin Xiaodong with an expression of contempt
No doubt, the young ood books of Zhu Yan by sending his own underling to cause proble All he needed to do was offer a rental fee several tiher than what he had and the landlady would naturally be willing to force him out
Presently, the Seven Profound Martial House is holding its registration event, leading to difficulty in searching for a dwelling place Finding another place to rent was easier said than done But even if he did, there was no guarantee that this underling would not appear to cause probleain
Lin Ming’s face turned heavy and he gazed coldly at the landlady “Back then we had agreed that I will be renting for five months I have also paid you the five months’ rent in advance Currently, there is still three more months until the deadline But, you want me to leave now?”
The landlady setically “This… Naturally, I am aware of this How about this? I will return the rent for the three months back to you How about that?”
“Ah! Return me the three ’s anger had begun boiling If this landlady had been forced to evict hi would simply have left However, her current actions and words have made him furious
“Hey, what are you talking about Back then, we had only talked about it and not signed off on anything This room isSky Fortune City’s status as the capital city of Sky Fortune Kingdom, all the property owners here have a subconscious sense of superiority To them, all those who came from the outside are but country bu in tones of disdain towards them Furthermore, this man beside her was obviously someone sent by a rich and powerful fa her up, the landlady becaeous
At this antly “If you are sensible, then just get out i Master has e to find another place to rent, I will still be able to throw you out Within this three months before the entrance assessins, you should just resign yourself to sleeping in the streets, haha!”
The hed
For those ere born within the circle of elites, it was only natural for theant sense of superiority However, even when they were expressing their arrogance, they would still race and speech, just like Zhu Yan This person standing before hiance, one befitting those of bullies who could only depend on others
Lin Ming stared at thecolder with each passing moment
“What are you looking at? Are you thinking about hittingMaster is the second son of the lord of the Defence Ar Master, then this Young Master will…”
“Scra the ”, thesounds After which, the man lied on a pile of debris amidst broken furnitures and pots, his hair dishevelled and his face dripping with blood
A fist capable of indenting Iron Tree struck the ined, the man’s nose had totally sunk inwards
The landlady becaed out for several moments before suddenly shouted out miserably “Help! Murder!”
The landlady rushed out, but her fat legs were unable to work properly and she fell on the floor with a plop
Lin Ming stepped towards the e of Physical Training was only the beginner territory of the martial way, it was by no means worthless After all, do on the other hand was a good talent to begin with In addition, he was very hard working Ast one thousand peers of the same talent, it may be difficult to find even one with the sath as hi and did not taketo deal with him
Thewould actually beat hi “You… you dare hit me, you… you are finished”
“I do not knoould happen todelivered a kick at the ain, he flew out Only this ti kicked all the way outside the house
Lin Ming did not say anything He returned to his rooan to leave The entire house had been reduced to a state ofblood to drip out of the landlady’s heart She timidly said “You… you cannot leave like that, you… must… must compensate”
Lin Ming stopped walking, he turned around to face the landlady as slumped on the floor like a human meatball He asked “Compensate?”
“Co its strength She felt as though the gaze of the young man before her was just like ainto the nine infernal abysses, causing her to shudder
Without saying anything, Lin Ming punched the walls, his fist penetrating through the brick walls of the house, causing the entire house to shudder and dust to fall off the ceiling The landlady screamed out and fainted
Lin Ming carried his luggage and walked out of the house without even glancing at the fainted man
Lin Ming ell aware that after beating up this o and would certainly bring upon Lin Ming no srets
As a man, there was a need to endure If the person who had co would not have acted as he did and would have chosen to endure This loss was one that must be endured However, the one who appeared before hi, one who could only depend on the backing of hishad to endure what this kind of person had to say, then as the point of hi martial arts?
That was si’s heart
Thus, Lin Ming left the neighbourhood After a while, he put down his backpack and started considering how to solve his dwelling problem As of now, all the inns were full; in addition, the prices were also far too expensive for hi in the wilds, Lin Xiaodong would probably throw a fuss and insist on bringing him to his own abode
If Lin Ming were to do so and the second son of the Aret about sleeping in his house He will have to acco and sleep on the streets
Moreover, Lin Ming had just provoked a dangerous trouble There was no guarantee that the Ars over In these people’s eyes, causing others to beco such a kind of proble
If that is the case, then where could I go?
After conteht of a place – theestablishment in Sky Fortune City – Grand Clarity Pavilion
The Grand Clarity Pavilion’s consuhest class In addition, they the base of power, a ainst it
The reason Lin Ming wanted to go to Grand Clarity Pavilion was obviously not to spend money to rent a place He was headed there to find work Lin Ming’s parents operate a restaurant, it was a given that Lin Ming would be able to cook, the taste of his cooking was quite good as well However, he was not conceited enough to think that he could compete with those cooks in Sky Fortune City After all, his forte did not lie in the area of cooking…
Grand Clarity Pavilion re arrived It is the establishment with the best business in Sky Fortune City
Lin Ming’s clothes were too ordinary, causing all who saw hie expression A person with such a kind of clothes would usually be unable to eat within this Grand Clarity Pavilion Further is only a fifteen-year-old teenager
However, the waiter maintained a favourable manner as he walked over and asked “Little brother, are you here with your parents?”
Lin Ming shook his head and replied “I am here for a job”
Hearing that, the waiter frowned What kind of job could arequires beauties who are at least eighteen years old or handso, what kind of cooking could a fifteen-year-old kid produce?
