Chapter 14: A Surprise Attack

"This"

Yu Changsheng was shocked by the other party's behavior.

A man's knees are made of gold, why do you kneel so naturally and decisively?

"My Lord, what I said is true. If you don't believe me, look at the claw marks on my chest and the bruises on my hands and feet. It's a miracle that I'm still alive today!"

Luo Lesheng looked tragic, with tears in his eyes. He tore open his clothes on his chest, revealing the bloody bandage inside, and shouted with a trembling voice.

"Please give me two more days, and I will pay the rent in full by then!"

According to the list, the other party owed three low-grade spirit stones. He usually went out to hunt monsters, so it was inevitable that he would get injured.

But Yu Changsheng gave the other party time, who would give him time?

The sect has an order that the rent must be collected tomorrow morning. If part of it is missing, he will be punished. If someone accuses him of stealing, it will be even more ruined!

Yu Changsheng frowned and was thinking about how to start.

A errand disciple on the opposite street had already collected rent from a household. He happened to see the situation here and walked over with a smile on his face.

"This is your first time collecting rent. I tell you, you can't be polite to these cultivators, and don't believe their nonsense. Who knows if he hurt himself!"

"I've seen a lot of tricks like this in Yufang Market."

The errand disciple smiled at Yu Changsheng, "Look, you have to be aggressive when collecting rent!"

"Damn it, you bastard dare to continue living here without spirit stones, making fun of me!"

"Give you time! How long have I given you! It's not bad to collect the interest on the three low-grade spirit stones you owe, but you still dare to raise the time, are you kidding me!"

The errand disciple kicked Luo Lesheng over and punched and kicked him.

"Ah! Sir! Stop beating me! I'm dying!"

Luo Lesheng screamed in pain, holding his head with his hands and huddled on the ground. He didn't look like a cultivator at the fourth level of Qi Refining at all, but more like a poor civilian.

"Do you have three low-grade spirit stones?! If not, I'll keep beating you! I'll beat you to death and then I'll take your treasure bag to see if you're crying poor!"

The errand disciple sneered and slapped the other person's head.

"I remember! Yes, yes, yes! I just sold a low-level monster skin yesterday and earned some spirit stones!" Luo Lesheng was in pain and quickly took out three low-grade spirit stones.

"Will you rent it next year? If not, move out now!"

"I'll rent, I'll rent!"

Luo Lesheng cried bitterly, and then took out ten low-grade spirit stones.

The errand disciple collected the spirit stone, threw it to Yu Changsheng, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "See, this is how you should collect rent, otherwise, how long will it take to collect a hundred houses if you keep doing this!"

"Also, don't be afraid of these bitches. We are walking outside, wearing this leather, how many blind people dare to look at us?"

"Okay, I'll go collect my own rent, work harder!"

After saying that, the errand disciple left on his own.

Yu Changsheng was stunned.

This is really simple and crude!

He looked down at the spirit stone, but the efficiency seemed to be terrifying.

Yu Changsheng casually crossed out the name on the list, and no longer cared about the crying Luo Lesheng, and walked towards the next target.

"Ah, my spirit stone, what a damn thief!"

Luo Lesheng shouted, wiping the tears from his eyes, and climbed up from the ground.

Behind the sleeves that blocked his face, his eyes were fixed on Yu Changsheng who was walking away, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Time passed quickly, and it was nighttime.

The entire shantytown of Yufang City was bustling with the rent collection and cleaning. Many monks who had paid the rent moved out their chairs and laughed at the monks who were driven away.

Some monks were dragged out and beaten to death on the street because they refused to pay the rent and resisted the relocation.

In Yufang City, the Wanxiang Sect is the king. Some weak monks dare not disobey. Just as the errand disciple said, others are afraid of them.

The number of spirit stones in Yu Changsheng's pocket was increasing. When it was three o'clock in the night, the number reached an astonishing one thousand.

The rich spiritual energy made him want to take a few more breaths.

Since he traveled through time, when had he seen so many spirit stones? This was simply a test for him. He wanted to just run away with the spirit stones.

But thinking about it carefully, a thousand low-grade spirit stones seemed to be only ten medium-grade spirit stones used by Jindan monks. It was unwise and short-sighted to betray the sect and be hunted down for such a small amount of resources.

"The last household has been collected."

Yu Changsheng weighed the heavy treasure bag and sighed.

The cultivators on the list were all soft-hearted. At the beginning, he had not mastered the essence of rent collection and was almost deceived by them. But after collecting rent twice, he took a tougher attitude and those people were scared and handed over the spirit stones.

There were more than one hundred households, and only two cultivators really couldn't afford to renew their rent. They were driven away and locked their doors. Now they are wandering on the streets and don't know if they can survive tonight.

"Why is this area so quiet?"

After walking for a distance, Yu Changsheng suddenly stopped and looked around the houses with lights turned off. It didn't look like anyone was there.

It was only the fourth watch. How could the cultivators who had just paid their rent leave!

This abnormality made Yu Changsheng alert.

"Swish!"

At the same time, a sound of breaking through the air sounded.

Yu Changsheng didn't turn his head, because the attack in the dark came too suddenly, leaving him no time to react.

"Not good!" His consciousness had seen that it was a long spike with a faint glow.

The distance of 60 meters was not enough for the sneak attack of this magic weapon. As soon as he raised his hand, the long spike was only three meters away from his head!

He realized that the wooden shield technique could not catch up, and while turning around and lying down, he directly took out a talisman from the system space.

That was the first-level amulet that he spent fifty spirit coins to buy at the gathering!

"Dang!"

The amulet turned into ashes, and a dazzling golden light shone, resisting the attack of the long spike.

Fortunately, the amulet was placed in his system space, and he could take it out with a thought. If it was in the treasure bag, he would have died under the long spike.

However, the amulet was produced by a casual cultivator and was first-level. It was a bit powerless to resist this magic weapon. In just one second, the golden light cracked.

But this second gave Yu Changsheng the opportunity to cast a spell.

"Wooden Shield Technique!"

The instant wooden shield technique unfolded and appeared in front of his hand.

After the long spike shattered the golden light, it hit the wooden shield just right.

"Bang!" With a loud noise.

Yu Changsheng only felt a sudden pain in his arm, and his body flew backwards under the force, and the force was no less than that of the Red Snake King!

In mid-air, he pinched his fingers to perform the Wind Walking Technique, and with a tip of his toes, he landed on the roof on the other side and escaped successfully.

The long spike missed the target twice, and turned into a faint light and fell into the hands of a figure.

"It's really unexpected, he actually survived."

Yu Changsheng looked carefully and was shocked.

The figure was Luo Lesheng, who knelt on the ground and cried when he first collected rent!
