HCB Chapter 179 Dad, He Wants to Take Advantage of You
Chapter 179 Dad, He Wants to Take Advantage of You
Xiao Wanwan was keenly aware of someone staring at her, and when she looked in the direction of the gaze, she saw Xiao Meimei's evasive look.
She couldn't help but feel a little wary of Xiao Meimei.
For some reason, she always felt that Xiao Mimi was a little weird.
Xiao Wanwan suddenly thought of herself, and an idea suddenly flashed in her mind.
By the way, she always tried hard to play the role of a child, always worried that her every move would not look like a little kid.
And this Xiao Mimi always inadvertently reveals a maturity and stability that is different from her age.
Is it...
Is she also a time traveler like herself, or is she reborn?
Xiao Wanwan secretly suppressed this thought in her heart and decided to pay close attention in their future interactions, as she would always be able to find clues.
Just as she was lost in thought, the commotion in the crowd in the distance caught her attention.
"Didn't you say it was 200 top-grade immortal stones? Why did the price go up again?"
A burly man with a sullen face roared angrily.
"The past is the past, and the present is the present. Do you need it or not? No, move out of the way!"
A mean-looking servant standing guard at the teleportation array had a look of disdain on his face.
He rudely pushed the burly man away and shouted at the people behind him to hand over the spirit stones.
The burly man gnashed his teeth in anger, but did not dare to fight him.
"How is this going?"
Xiao Junhe raised his eyes and looked forward to where the dispute took place.
"Yo, brother, don't you know?"
A young man standing in front of him crossed his arms and turned around excitedly. It was obvious that he was a talkative person.
"I can tell you just arrived today. The price of this teleportation array to enter the Holy Land changes all the time. The servant guarding the teleportation array has the final say."
"Then no one will come out to take care of it?"
Xiao Wanwan couldn't help but ask.
"Oh, little kid, you're also worried about this? The servants guarding the teleportation array are all from the Holy Land. Who dares to intervene?"
The man covered his mouth and chuckled, fiddling with his hair with his fingers.
Seeing this, Xiao Wanwan couldn't help but shudder, and goose bumps appeared all over her body.
By the way, are there sissy men in the world of cultivating immortals?
"Then the people from the Holy Land don't care?"
Xiao Junhe frowned slightly. Although he had heard from the shopkeeper that the servants guarding the teleportation array would raise the price at will.
But I didn't expect that they would increase the price so casually.
"Oh, brother, you don't know this, right? Every time Brahma Academy recruits students, guarding the teleportation array is a lucrative job."
The young man raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with a smile between his eyebrows. He slowly approached and stretched out his hand to put it on Xiao Junhe's shoulder.
Only now did he realize that the man standing behind him was such a majestic and handsome man.
His posture is as straight as a pine tree, his face is resolute yet handsome, as if he walked out of a painting, which makes people fall in love with him.
Xiao Wanwan, who was held in Xiao Junhe's arms, saw the man's orchid finger was about to rest on Xiao Junhe's shoulder.
Her chubby little hand couldn't help but feel itchy. Xiao Wanwan couldn't bear it any longer and slapped her.
"Don't touch my dad!"
With a "slap" sound, a clearly visible small slap mark instantly appeared on the back of the man's jade-like hand.
"Dad, he wants to take advantage of you!"
Xiao Junhe: ...
Your father is a man of great stature, how could he possibly let someone take advantage of him? This is totally irrelevant!
He raised his eyes to look at the man, only to see that he was covering the back of his hand tightly with his other hand, staring at him with tearful eyes, as if he was about to cry.
He looked as if he had suffered a great injustice.
A thought suddenly flashed through Xiao Junhe's mind, and he immediately understood.
He couldn't help but shudder all over, and a strong feeling of nausea surged in his heart.
"Fuck..."
Xiao Junhe, who was always polite, couldn't help but swear for the first time in his life.
In a rage, he swung his right hand without hesitation and slapped out fiercely.
There was a loud "bang" and the man flew out screaming like a kite with a broken string.
"what……"
As the man screamed, his body drew an arc in the air.
He flew several feet away without any resistance and finally fell heavily to the ground.
Xiao Junhe looked at the man lying on the ground in the distance, his anger still burning in his heart.
If it weren't for the fact that killing and fighting were expressly prohibited in Shenlu City, he would have ruthlessly torn the man into pieces.
This guy is really too much. He actually dares to have such dirty thoughts about him!
"Who dares to cause trouble here?"
Accompanied by an angry shout, the servant with a narrow face, sharp eyes and a mean look came over quickly with a gloomy face.
He walked hurriedly, and each step seemed to carry a heavy anger, making the air around him seem heavy.
His gloomy eyes were like two cold rays, falling directly on Xiao Junhe and others.
In an instant, everyone felt a chill coming towards them, which made them feel afraid.
His thin lips curled up slightly, forming a creepy and gloomy smile.
"Are you the ones causing trouble here?"
His voice was icy cold, as if it could penetrate one's soul.
Huh...he likes it!
This kind of scene of people causing trouble is what he likes to see the most.
What he disliked was that these people were honest and law-abiding.
Otherwise, how could he find excuses and reasons to make a huge fortune from them?
Today, someone actually handed this rare opportunity to me!
"Are you going to the Holy Land?"
He looked up and down at the group of people in front of him with his eyes slanted, greed gleaming in his eyes.
"Exactly!"
Xiao Junhe remained calm and answered seriously.
He stood tall and straight like a pine tree, his expression neither humble nor arrogant, and he showed no fear in the face of the servant's questioning.
"Very good! Anyone who gathers to cause trouble must pay two thousand high-grade immortal stones first."
The servant crossed his arms over his chest, looking arrogant, as if he was sure that the other party would not dare to resist.
"Two thousand high-grade immortal stones?"
Hearing this number, Xiao Junhe's expression changed slightly and he asked involuntarily.
"Why?"
"Haha... why?"
The servant laughed strangely, looking up to the sky, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"Is there something wrong with your ears? Didn't you hear clearly what I said about gathering a crowd to cause trouble? Since you've committed a crime, you must pay the fine! If you don't want to pay, that's fine, but right now, get back to where you came from! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
As the harsh servant spoke, he waved the whip in his hand demonstratively, making a crisp sound.
Looking at his smug look, Xiao Wanwan took out the token given by Venerable Tianyuan from her necklace.
She held the token in her small hand, put it to the servant's face, and blinked at him with her big eyes.
"We don't have any high-grade immortal stones. Can we use this as a payment?"
