Special Expert of Beauty CEO

”Brother Qin, going to the Du Family is definitely unrealistic. First, the journey is too far; second, the Du Family people are solely focused on returning to the Spirit Realm, incredibly arrogant. Someone like you from Earth would just get kicked out, not even getting through the door.”

”So, I’ve thought it over. If you want to get cultivation pills, you have to find Iron Boss. Iron Boss may have a strange temper, but he’s better than the cultivation bandits, right? If those bandits see you have money, they would really rob you.”

Ou Yunfu analyzed to Qin Tian.

Qin Tian listened clearly and said, ”Brother Ou, tell me where Iron Boss is, and I’ll give it a try.”

”Brother Qin, think it over carefully.” Ou Yunfu’s expression was serious.

”I’ve thought about it, I need large amounts of cultivation pills. According to what you said, I basically have no other choice.”

”Alright then, we’re now in the southernmost part of the southern mountains. You head north tomorrow, you’ll enter a small town. Ask around there and you’ll know where Iron Boss lives; it’s the house with the most luxurious decor.”

Seeing that Qin Tian had made up his mind, Ou Yunfu said no more, and added, ”This world is ultimately survival of the fittest. I started at the early stage of Qi Refinement and suffered greatly. Now I’ve reached the middle stage, and nobody bothers me anymore. I’m content with my quiet life and don’t want to bully those weaker than me, so I moved with my daughter to this peaceful place to live...”

”Haha, without desire there is no worry. Now I’m thinking, if Olan doesn’t want to go to the Spirit Realm, do I really need to make her work hard on cultivation… She’s a girl. If she ends up going to the Spirit Realm and I can’t, I wouldn’t feel at ease… so...”

He had to admit, Ou Yunfu was quite a chatterbox.

But this middle-aged brother spoke purely out of good intentions. Qin Tian replied, ”Brother Ou, if you guys don’t want to go to the Spirit Realm, you can join us. Here’s my contact information. If you join my War Dragon, I think you’ll experience a different kind of life’s happiness.”

Qin Tian wrote down his cell phone number and landline number for Ou Yunfu. Ou Yunfu had used a cell phone before, but there was no signal here, so he didn’t carry one, and he remembered Qin Tian’s number.

The next day, Ou Yunfu personally escorted Qin Tian to the entrance of the village in the southern mountains and said, ”I won’t go in, you go ahead. Good luck to you.”

”The road ahead is dangerous, Brother Qin. To be honest, you might not make it back alive. If you do come back, remember to find me, and I’ll treat you to a drink.”

Ou Yunfu gave Qin Tian his final cautions and advice.

He knew the dangers ahead and also knew that Qin Tian was unafraid.

In the Spirit Realm, it’s the same. To become stronger and get more resources, any powerful person went through many life and death trials to get there.

Right now, Qin Tian was like an immortality cultivator in the Spirit Realm, seeking knowledge everywhere to grow stronger. Either he succeeds and is richly rewarded, or he fails and loses his life.

”Thank you, Brother Ou, that’s a promise.”

Qin Tian nodded to Ou Yunfu, turned, and walked into the village.

This was an ancient house, essentially a small town, with a large blue stone paved road and more than a dozen connected houses on either side.

The houses on either side of the stone road were mostly open, and were various shops.

There was an inn, a fruit shop, an iron shop, a pharmacy, and restaurants... Qin Tian looked at the scenery on both sides and felt like he had come to a film set for a period drama in Hengdian World Studios. The people’s clothing here felt somewhat retro.

”Yun Menghan said people in the Spirit Realm are retro, and it seems the people here are influenced too.”

Qin Tian walked on the road, thinking.

At this time, he realized there weren’t many people on the stone road, and around the shops, many shopkeepers were looking at him with strange eyes.

Noticing all these odd looks, Qin Tian immediately became cautious.

He understood very well; this village didn’t seem large, likely housing only about a hundred people. These people saw each other often or knew each other well, he was a stranger, of course, he would be noticed when he came in.

”Hey, friend, where you coming from? Where you going?”

Just as Qin Tian was about to ask a merchant about Iron Boss’s residence, suddenly, two figures flashed ahead, two men appeared and surrounded Qin Tian from left to right with leering expressions.

What the hell, I’m not a girl, these two sleazy guys...

Qin Tian glanced at the two men, frowning at once.

The two men were rough around the edges, sleazy and reckless, clearly the sort that didn’t do honest work.

The one who spoke to Qin Tian was a man with a sullen face. He stared at Qin Tian, ”You’re new to Nanshan Village, aren’t you? Do you know the rules? Heh heh…”

Qin Tian had grown up maneuvering through society, he had seen scenes like this often.

Obviously, these two intended to bully him, or rob him, seeing him as new and unfamiliar.

”Yo, Zhao Laosan, Zhao Laosi, you two brothers bullying the newcomer again!”

”Hahaha, you guys only have the nerve to bully newcomers!”

”Useless fellows, look at your meager skills, hahaha...”

Seeing the two sleazy men surrounding Qin Tian, none of the surrounding shopkeepers came forward to help. Each of them watched as if a spectator, purely bystanders.

”It’s none of your business! Mind your words! Annoy the Zhao brothers, and I’ll make sure your business can’t survive!” the sullen-faced man shouted.

”Hahaha... Oh, quite the threat you got there!”

”Haha, I’m so scared... just hush and bully a newcomer!”

The surrounding merchants paid no heed to the Zhao brothers’ threats and continued watching.

The sullen-faced Zhao Laosan turned his head to scrutinize Qin Tian, stuck his little finger into his nostril, dug out a large booger, flicked it away with his nail, and nonchalantly wiped his finger on his clothes.

”Friend, we are the Zhao Family brothers from Nanshan Village. Now, you know our name, and the rule here is, newcomers must pay tribute to the Zhao Family brothers, or else... heh heh, we’ll beat you so bad your own mother won’t recognize you!” Zhao Laosan said.

”Hurry up, hand over the valuables, or I’ll search you personally!” Zhao Laosi pretended to be threatening, seemingly afraid of something, appearing a bit anxious.

”Tribute? How much tribute?”

Qin Tian stood there, asking lightly.

”Heh heh, not much, just a hundred taels of gold.”

Zhao Laosan said, asking for a hefty sum.

As soon as he said this, the surrounding spectators eating melon seeds began a casual discussion again.

”Haha, a hundred taels of gold, these Zhao brothers are getting tougher!”

”This newcomer, so unlucky, gets bullied as soon as he arrives.”

”Who told him to be new? Which newcomer around here hasn’t been bullied?”

”True, a bit of hardship teaches lessons. Well, let’s keep watching. The other day, the Zhao brothers gambled and owed money. I feel today they won’t let this newcomer off easily.”
