Could it be that I am the cruel villain?

Chapter 127: Chapter 103: You’re Useless Even With the Opportunity! [4K]

His expression was somewhat odd.

He wasn’t surprised by the great influence Yu Ying wielded in Shuangfeng City, what surprised him was this commission letter.

The commission letter felt like it was made from some kind of animal hide, thick and emitting a faint scent, and aside from the dense text, it also bore a very small seal and even a fingerprint impression.

Judging by the Spiritual Energy fluctuations emanating from it, it would be very difficult to forge this document. Moreover, it required one to leave their fingerprint as evidence to claim the reward.

"Five..."

His brows furrowed tightly.

Not because it was too few, but because it was too many.

He had absorbed the soul of that little sister from the Fan Yin Sect, so he had some understanding of this unique Cultivation System. Simply put, it’s usually those missions requiring the mobilization of Foundation Establishment experts that would reward five or more Spirit Stones.

The big brother who came looking for a female cultivator yesterday was already at the upper levels of Foundation Establishment, and his entire fortune was only a little over fifty Spirit Stones. After all, these were consumables, used mostly for Cultivation or transaction within the Cultivation World.

"Thanks for the trouble, Elder Zhang."

He reined in his Heart, displaying a grateful look. The old man simply waved his hand carelessly, not really paying it any mind, and then continued to focus on writing out commissions with his brush.

Even though he knew about yesterday’s commotion at the Purple Cloud Pavilion, Jiang Feng’s power was still too insignificant to draw serious attention. Seeing the old man busying himself, Xu Fu naturally gave the young man a meaningful look, signaling him to properly keep the commission letter.

He noticed that he didn’t even need to provide corresponding collateral when accepting this commission, probably also due to the status of the Purple Cloud Pavilion.

It’s great to have a powerful backer.

He tucked the commission letter into his bosom, but he could clearly feel some sharp gazes around him. Bowing his head, he followed behind Xu Fu, but just as they stepped out of the Immortal Pavilion, someone began speaking in a sarcastic tone.

"You take your people and pick up all the good jobs, leaving the rest of us Sect Disciples to face the cold wind?"

Although a large portion of Shuangfeng City’s power was held by the Purple Cloud Palace, there were still other sects trying to get a slice of the pie—as seen when he observed other sects’ embassies upon entering the city.

Well, in Jiang Feng’s eyes, both the Purple Cloud Pavilion and the Ethereal Violet Pavilion in Qingshui County were just embassies, except that these embassies also had their own lives.

"What’s the matter, can’t accept it?"

Surprisingly, Manager Xu, who always maintained an honest and simple image, actually stopped in his tracks. The smile on his face unchanged, but when he asked this question with a smile, Mr. Jiang felt a chill down his back.

Seeing Xu Fu actually stopping and even being so provocative, the opposite party sneered. He naturally knew that the Purple Cloud Palace was powerful, but there weren’t only the Purple Cloud Palace in this world, and Shuangfeng City wasn’t exclusively theirs.

"Do you think the Immortal Pavilion is owned by your Purple Cloud Palace? Which sect hasn’t invested resources in it? Why should you take all the easy jobs away with your people? Did you even ask if everyone here agrees to that!"

Taking a look around and noticing many eyes focused on him, he grew bold and stared down the short man in front of him without backing down.

However, Xu Fu just walked straight towards him, looking at the man who was half a head shorter, he felt a bit intimidated, but considering that they were in front of so many people, could Xu Fu dare to actually do anything?

"What, you’re going to silence me by killing me in front of all these people?"

He deliberately said this to try to protect himself, but Xu Fu just kept the same simple and honest smile on his face, and then...

Thud!

"Damn it, I knew it! Just like family."

Mr. Jiang cursed inwardly.

The thick and chubby palm was just like a chunk of reinforced concrete, swatting away the man who had opened his mouth to make trouble, and at least five or six teeth went flying!

He was no Yu Ying; the Pavilion Master lady had to be graceful at all times due to her gender, so she was relatively more reserved.

But he didn’t need to.

He meant to hit for real.

Being slapped away seven or eight meters, Jiang Feng watched agape, especially since he noticed the man’s cultivation was at least Mid Grade Foundation Establishment, even feeling a bit stronger than Wu Daoxu from his last trip to Qingshui County.

"You, I’ll *your* useless piece of... You dare to hit..."

Thud!

He didn’t even get a clear look at how Xu Fu appeared in front of him, when everything blurred, the man who had already been knocked down was suddenly struck by a knee and blood gushed from his nose!

Some of the spectators who looked a bit older just shook their heads. Today’s younger generations truly have commendable courage, as Shuangfeng City was rebuilt just over twenty years ago, and many only remember that venomous-hearted Yu Ying.

Yet, they had forgotten about Xu Fu, who once served as the Pavilion Master in Shuangfeng City before the great battle.

Dizzy and with a surge of anger rising from within, Spiritual Energy erupted in his body. As he was about to retaliate, he suddenly felt light-headed.

He didn’t know when Xu Fu had appeared behind him, grabbing his hair with that big chubby hand and hoisting him up.

"Come on, summon your Spiritual Energy, and bring out your Magic Treasure."

The smile on his face remained the same throughout, and there wasn’t even a threatening tone to his voice, but it was this very sentence that enlightened the man with dread uncontrollably rising in his eyes.

No one was allowed to fight in Shuangfeng City, and if he was the first to utilize Spiritual Energy and Magic Treasures, then Xu Fu in front of him would have a legitimate reason to kill him on the spot.

Even without a real reason, he could find many if he desired, all depending on his mood.
