Fishing the Myriad Heavens Chapter 207

Chapter 207: Ming s.h.i.+ Li's Calculations
The Su father and son were on the verge of tears. b.l.o.o.d.y h.e.l.l, this was too unexpected!

"Governor, this entire thing is a huge misunderstanding!"

Su Lin hurriedly changed his tune. He felt like his chest was about to explode whenever he thought back to how his son used the words 'little b.a.s.t.a.r.d' in every sentence earlier. If the governor's son was a little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, what does that make the governor?

If the governor took this against him and decided to make things difficult for him, he would certainly suffer in the future. The fact was that his deeds as a government official were not clean, and would definitely not be able to withstand an inspection. He would be in huge trouble if he became targeted by a sudden inspection.

Ming s.h.i.+ Li remained expressionless, but he'd already imprinted these two idiots into his mind.

"Young man, it's not your turn yet to teach my son!" Ming s.h.i.+ Li turned around and said coldly.

"What happened here?"

Yang Can rushed over. The din here had been noticed by another young Daoist who ran off to inform Yang Can. As everyone here today were important guests, the young Daoist could not make any decisions on his own.

As he saw Bei Feng and Su Bai who was hiding behind Su Lin, Yang Can did not know if he should be laughing or crying. Was this youth teaching his disciple to beat others up again?

"Elder."

"Master! The Xiantian Lord is teaching me personally."

Ming Ze ran over obediently and bowed respectfully as soon as he Yang Can arrive. Ming s.h.i.+ Li also clasped his fists solemnly in greeting. He was actually very familiar with Yang Can. This Daoist had a deep cultivation, and was also the person who saved Ming Ze. Thus, he was a benefactor of the Ming family.

"En."

Yang Can nodded indifferently, showing no signs of wanting to b.u.t.ter up to Ming s.h.i.+ Li.

Yang Can did not bother too much about Ming s.h.i.+ Li. Instead, he walked towards Bei Feng. As a half step Xiantian expert and with the backing of Mount Longhu, he still had that bit of confidence.

"Greetings, sovereign. It seems that sovereign is in a pretty good mood today. Instead of eating in the hall, you've come out here specially to instruct young Ming Ze. This is the good fortune of the child," Yang Cang walked up to Bei Feng and bowed politely as he said in a roundabout way.

"I've already eaten... I've simply come out for a walk when I saw the father and son duo bullying the boy. Let's just say that I didn't like the sight of it."

Bei Feng's mouth twitched slightly. How was it that he was caught in the act every single time he was playing the devil?

'Why is the elder calling that young man a sovereign? And he seems rather respectful as well? It should be my misconception...'

As he was standing a distance apart from Bei Feng, he could only catch a few words like sovereign and such. Seeing Yang Can's uncanny politeness, he could not help but to make some wild guesses in his mind.

"The two of you can go down the mountain by yourselves."

Evolved Jing masters all had pretty good memories. Seeing Su Bai's pathetic expression, he could not help but feel the corner of his lips twitch a little. Without question, he had certainly been hit by his little disciple again.

Su Lin was feeling extremely aggrieved. No matter what, he was still a vice mayor! How come everybody that appeared could slight him and step on him beneath their feet so easily?!

"My father is the vice mayor of this city! If you dare to chase us away, we'll make sure to send someone to seal up your broken mountain tomorrow!"

Seeing Su Bai who was still shouting angrily with a mouthful of blood, Yang Can could not help but to laugh aloud. "Ming

Ze, what did the sovereign teach you? Just follow his instructions. No matter what happens, you have the sovereign to back you up! This type of treatment is something that can only be found by luck and not sought for!"

Ming Ze's eyes lit up with excitement. Without any further hesitation, he ran forward and began pummeling Su Bai with his little fists. Soon, a series of incredibly wretched cries rang out through the mountain, growing louder with every hit. Even Ming s.h.i.+ Li could feel his face cramping up upon the sight. This little brat was really merciless with his strikes! Every hit was actually aimed at the face!

'Who is that strange youth?! Didn't they say that Daoists were all peaceful people? How come these two have such volatile tempers?' Wouldn't his cute son turn into a brute if he stayed in such an environment for too long?

Ming s.h.i.+ Li felt a wave of worry surface in his heart. However, he did not speak out to stop him. Those two people really did deserve a beating. And because of his status, it was inappropriate for him to say anything much.

Su Lin stood grimly by the side as he watched his son enduring a beating. 'Who allowed this d*mn brat mouth off without thinking? It's also good to let the governor vent his anger with this beating...'

By the time Ming Ze was done, Su Bai's originally handsome face had turned into a pig's head.

"Don't mention that your father is the vice mayor. The governor is right here. You can try asking the governor if even he dares to seal my Mount Longhu! Senseless idiots. Get lost!" Yang Can remarked coldly as his eyes swiveled to look at the pig-headed Su Bai. If it wasn't a joyous occasion for Mount Longhu today, those two would not be allowed to leave so easily.

"Right, help me tell Danxia Zi that I'll be making a move first. If I have the time, I'll come and pay Mount Longhu another visit," Bei Feng looked at Yang Can and said with a warm smile.

Without waiting for Yang Can to reply, he stepped off lightly with his foot and disappeared from the spot. In an instant, Bei Feng appeared tens of meters away. With a few more steps, he completely disappeared from the area.

"Elder, that person is... ?"

Ming s.h.i.+ Li widened his eyes with shock. That young man was actually a powerful expert! His father was already advanced in age, and Ming s.h.i.+ Li did not wish to burden the old man any further. However, he also needed a strong bodyguard by his side. From what he saw, that young man was extremely suitable!

Seeing Ming s.h.i.+ Li gazing over at the direction which Bei Feng left, Yang Can chuckled and said, "Perish the thought. You won't be able to afford him."

He could not be clearer about the thoughts running through that fellow's mind. Ming s.h.i.+ Li had wanted to recruit him many times, but was rejected firmly every time.

"How would I know if I don't try? I don't believe that a stalk of Thousand Year Huang Jing would not be enough to move him!" Ming s.h.i.+ Li was still rather confident about his chances as he said a.s.suredly.

"Haha, you should just keep that Thousand Year Huang Jing for Ming Ze instead. Wanting to move a Xiantian Lord with a stalk of Thousand Year Huang Jing? Do you intend to hire him for a few years or a few decades?" Yang Can laughed aloud and asked with interest.

"Five years! I just need him to protect me for five years and it'll be enough. As for Ming Ze, I'll be glad as long as he could grow up happy and healthily." Ming s.h.i.+ Li said heavily. At the same time, he felt that Yang Can was looking at him with a strange expression.

"Let me just tell you this. A stalk of Thousand Year Huang Jing would probably only be enough to invite that young sovereign to help you a single time. Furthermore, you need to have some kind of friends.h.i.+p with him beforehand. Otherwise, the greater probability is that you'll be thrown out of the door before you even get to meet him!"

Yang Can shook his head lightly. Wanting to obtain the protection of a Xiantian Lord for five years with just a stalk of Thousand Year Huang Jing? What kind of a joke was that? If there was such a good deal in the world, he would also hire a Xiantian Lord to follow him around.

"How can that be?! Could it be that even such an offer would not be enough to move him? This is a Thousand Year Huang Jing which was extremely rare in the world!" Ming s.h.i.+ Li b.u.mbled with disbelief, as if he was unwilling to accept the reality. A stalk of Thousand Year Huang Jing was a valuable treasure with huge demands but no supply! Even Evolved Jing masters would find this treasure very useful!

Truthfully, even Yang Can felt somewhat moved by Ming s.h.i.+ Li's offer. If the requested period of protection was not so long and if he was not in the midst of trying to break through to the Xiantian realm, he might have agreed to the terms himself.

"Go back and ask Fellow Daoist Kong what a Xiantian Lord is, and you'll understand."

Yang Can shook his head and left, not intending to bother the father and son from catching up.

'If it was just a regular Xiantian Lord, perhaps they might agree to act once for Ming s.h.i.+ Li for the sake of the Thousand Year Huang Jing. However, that youth was not just a regular Xiantian Lord!

That was a person who was able to kill Xiantian Lords with a single sword strike! Furthermore, the other party did not lack that stalk of spirit herb!'

Yang Can thought silently. One had to know that the most expensive gift their Mount Longhu had received this time was Bei Feng's Thousand Year Frost Ginseng!

Not all spirit herbs above a thousand year were Grade 2 treasures. Take the Huang Jing for example. Despite being a thousand year old spirit herb, it was only at Grade 1.

If the other party could take out a Grade 2 treasure so casually as a gift, would he even spare a look at a measly Thousand Year Huang Jing?
