Chapter 25

Fang Xiao watched as Lu Shaoqing's face showed shock.

She had the urge to kill.

Is it really that bad?

Is it really that bad for me?

Is this how you see me?

Do I need to withhold wages? Do I, Fang Xiao, need to do this?

Dealing with such a person requires a very strong heart.

Fang Xiao was defeated and could only call Xiao Yi over.

When Xiao Yi learned that she no longer had to work here,

she did not look happy, but rather disappointed.

"So soon?"

Lu Shaoqing was taken aback, "You girl, have you gone crazy from working?"

"Who said they didn't want to work at first?"

"Are you now addicted?"

Xiao Yi giggled, "Second Senior Brother, I found working here quite enjoyable. It's something I've never done before."

Lu Shaoqing said, "Alright, there's still a month left, it's time to go back and cultivate."

Xiao Yi asked again, "Second Senior Brother, do you really have a way to make me comprehend sword intent and enter the Foundation Establishment stage within a month?"

Fang Xiao also looked at Lu Shaoqing with anticipation, eager to hear his response.

Over these days, through her deliberate efforts, Xiao Yi and she had already become friends.

Xiao Yi had also told her many things.

Among them was that Lu Shaoqing had promised Ji Yan that he would make Xiao Yi comprehend sword intent and enter the Foundation Establishment stage within two months.

But, is this possible?

Or rather, is this something a human can do?

How many people spend a year and still can't break through a minor realm.

Xiao Yi is currently at the eighth level of the Qi Condensation stage, and she just broke through not long ago.

Now, she has been working in Fang Xiao's tavern for a month, which means Lu Shaoqing has only one month left to help Xiao Yi break through.

And it's not just breaking through one level, but two.

At the same time, she must also comprehend sword intent.

Is this something a human can do?

Fang Xiao really wanted to comment.

Is this how you brag?

Can you just comprehend sword intent like that?

If comprehending sword intent was that easy, it would be everywhere.

Even the top disciples of the Guiyuan Pavilion and Shuangyue Valley haven't comprehended sword intent.

Your Tianyu Peak already has two people who have comprehended sword intent, which is enough to make the ancestors of Tianyu Peak rise from their graves.

Now you're thinking about making your junior sister comprehend sword intent too?

Why don't you just fly up to the heavens?

Lu Shaoqing saw Fang Xiao's ears perk up.

He pursed his lips and said to Xiao Yi, "I have confidence in you, do you have confidence in yourself?"

Xiao Yi was about to cry, "Second Senior Brother, I don't have confidence."

The Senior Brother is a prodigy, you are a genius, and I am just an ordinary person.

Why do you have such confidence in me?

Lu Shaoqing said, "Exactly, you know you don't have confidence, right?"

"But," Xiao Yi hesitated, "you promised the Senior Brother."

Lu Shaoqing said, "So what if I promised? That was just a temporary measure, to deceive him."

"Otherwise, how could I save you from his clutches and trick him out of a thousand spirit stones?"

"Is that so?"

For some reason, Xiao Yi felt a bit disappointed.

She thought Lu Shaoqing had a way to make her comprehend sword intent and enter the Foundation Establishment stage in just a month.

"Then what?"

"Do you really think I'm a celestial being?"

After hearing this, Fang Xiao felt a bit disappointed, but mostly relieved.

If it were true, she might have gone crazy.

Thank goodness, thank goodness, we're all normal people.

A little bit of abnormality is fine, but too much would make it impossible to live.

Lu Shaoqing said to Xiao Yi, "Wait outside, I need to discuss something with the boss."

Fang Xiao deliberately said, "Little Yi, wait, this is your pay for this month."

"A total of 1,270 low-grade spirit stones, take good care of them."

Xiao Yi said, "Sister Xiao, no need, I don't need them."

Lu Shaoqing snatched them without hesitation and glared at Fang Xiao.

Then he said to Xiao Yi, "You can't refuse, you can't let such a capitalist benefit."

"If you don't want them, Second Senior Brother will keep them for you."

"This..."

Fang Xiao underestimated Lu Shaoqing's shamelessness.

Xiao Yi objected, "Second Senior Brother, these are Sister Xiao's spirit stones, how can you take them?"

Lu Shaoqing said, "Whose spirit stones? These are the fruits of your hard labor."

"You can't let a capitalist benefit."

Fang Xiao was curious, "What is a capitalist?"

"A capitalist is someone who is unkind to the rich, who squeezes the bones and sucks the marrow, who evades taxes, who speculates and cheats, and who takes what is not rightfully theirs."

Fang Xiao rolled her eyes and directly exposed him, "Little Yi, your Senior Brother asked me to give your pay to him, not to you."

Xiao Yi looked at Lu Shaoqing, with no surprise on her face.

This is something Second Senior Brother would do.

Lu Shaoqing ignored Xiao Yi's resentful gaze, "You're still young, I'm afraid you'll be cheated."

"I'll keep the spirit stones for you, and give them back when you grow up."

Xiao Yi didn't want to speak anymore.

I'm already sixteen, am I still young?

Besides, once the spirit stones are in your hands, will they ever come back to me?

Xiao Yi had no hope for her spirit stones.

Fang Xiao was speechless.

This person is really shameless.

He doesn't even blush.

Fang Xiao said to Xiao Yi, "Little Yi, do you really not want your pay?"

Xiao Yi said, "Forget it, give them to Second Senior Brother."

Xiao Yi comes from a prominent family and doesn't care about these few spirit stones.

Besides, he is her Second Senior Brother, so let him take them.

Fang Xiao was frustrated, "You girl, how can you be like this?"

"Things that belong to you should be taken back."

Lu Shaoqing said to Fang Xiao, "Boss, you capitalist, don't try to sow discord between us."

"Come on, Junior Sister, don't learn bad things from a capitalist."

Fang Xiao stomped her feet in anger.

Xiao Yi waved goodbye to Fang Xiao and followed along with a smile.

Then she took out a small notebook from her pocket, "Second Senior Brother, you said to write down if anyone bullies me, I've written it all down."

Fang Xiao watched Lu Shaoqing's shocked face.

She had the urge to kill.

Is it really that bad?

Is it really that bad for me?

Is this how you see me?

Do I need to withhold wages? Do I, Fang Xiao, need to do this?
