Chapter 574: Chapter 574: The Opportunity to Make Money_1

After nodding to Zhang Xian, the speed of Blood Soul suddenly increased as he lunged toward the middle-aged men above.

The leader, who had already experienced the ferocity of Blood Soul, nearly panicked and ran uphill, tumbling and scrambling as he went.

The rest hadn’t fought against Blood Soul before, so they were not as afraid and dared to charge forward.

"Smack, smack, smack..."

Blood Soul seemed quite annoyed with the leader. After a few slaps sent the charging middle-aged men flying, he chased up to the fleeing leader and gave him a good beating, continuously slapping his face.

With a smack after another, the leader’s face quickly swelled up, turning him into a human pig head.

"Stop, you young man..."

At this moment, numerous figures rushed down from above.

Leading the group were two elderly men, both with white hair and strikingly similar appearances.

"Innate practitioners?"

Zhang Xian seemed a bit surprised to see the newcomers. What surprised him was not the strength of the two men, but their strikingly identical appearance. They must be twin brothers.

Two innates were not a big surprise but for a pair of twins to both achieve the innate realm was extremely rare, requiring that they both possess extraordinary cultivation talent.

"Who dares to act recklessly on our turf?" an elder gnarled at Zhang Xian.

The other old man also stared at Zhang Xian.

Blood Soul was fighting in the front, presumably just a lackey. The one calling the shots usually stayed back and watched the drama unfold.

"I should remind you both, this island is not your territory but mine. You must get that straight," after scanning the two old men, Zhang Xian asked, "You are ancient martial artists from Huaxia, aren’t you? How did you become the lapdogs of God’s spokesmen? You really think those guys can unify the world?"

"None of your business," one elder snapped back.

The other elder chimed in, "Kid, this isolated island isn’t very safe. You shouldn’t have come!"

"Doesn’t feel that way to me."

Zhang Xian replied, "Are you insinuating that with both of you here, I’m in danger?"

The two innate practitioners looked at each other angrily. Was this despicable young man purposely acting cute? Did he not know that attempting to act cute was shameful? What’s the use of being cute in front of such leaders?

"If you don’t respond, I’ll take it as a yes."

Zhang Xian laughed and said, "If you really think so, I regret to inform you both that while you’re here, I am very safe, but you two may not be as secure."

"Utterly shameless boasting."

An innate practitioner suddenly charged at Zhang Xian, "I would like to see just how powerful you are, young man."

Zhang Xian, with his hands tucked in his pockets, stood unmoving with a smile, watching the elder charge at him.

"Hmph...."

The elder believed that Zhang Xian was frozen with fear and chuckled to himself.

The mere whelp before him was scolding him arrogantly when he was nothing. He was simply courting death.

"Boom...."

Suddenly, a figure rushed over from the side. His speed was incredibly fast, like a high-speed train, and he collided fiercely with the elder.

"Damn...."

The elder felt a strong gust of wind coming from beside him but was too late to dodge, receiving the full impact directly.

Like a kite with a broken string, his body uncontrollably flew off to the side, knocking down two trees as thick as a man’s thigh before he landed on the ground, dizzy and disoriented.

"Uh..."

The other elder, who had not yet engaged, was stunned as he looked at Blood Soul in disbelief.

"Damn it..."

Struggling to get up, the elder who was sent flying wore a surprised expression as he looked at Blood Soul. He had not been able to dodge the attack. The speed of his opponent had reached an incomprehensible level.

"Roar..."

Blood Soul roared, charging again at the elder.

The old man in front of him was merely an innate practitioner, there was still a significant gap between him and the peak innate realm. Blood Soul, on the other hand, was already approaching the Grandmaster rank, they were not at all on the same level.

Comparing their power, even Cold Face seemed slightly stronger than the elder before them.

"Seeking death..."

The other elder suddenly charged at Blood Soul.

Zhang Xian just continued to watch, unconcerned. Blood Soul can effortlessly handle ordinary innates with his current strength.

There was simply no help for it, Blood Soul’s defense and attack powers were truly astounding. In a fight with equally matched opponents, Blood Soul could always be undefeated, unless his opponent possessed compelling suppression abilities.

Back in the ancient tomb, when Blood Soul had just woken up and was far from his peak condition, it still took him a considerable amount of effort.

Right now, Blood Soul’s strength was completely restored, even slightly improved compared to before. Ordinary innate practitioners who met him could only give up and run away.

Sure enough, the two innate practitioners didn’t last long against Blood Soul.

Even though the two were twins and complemented each other perfectly, their innate gap was something teamwork couldn’t make up for. It was highly unlikely that they could break through Blood Soul’s ever-changing defense.

"Boom...boom..." The two innate practitioners fell one after another, coughing up blood, as they were thrown back.

Seeing the two innate practitioners get taken down so efficiently, everyone from above had turned deathly pale, their legs shaking uncontrollably. They realized that without the protection of the innates, they were doomed.

"Throw these guys into the sea to feed the fish." After glancing at Blood Soul, Zhang Xian turned and headed towards the peak of the mountain.

At his command, Blood Soul advanced on the remaining men.

As the Blood Soul charged in, everyone scrambled to escape. However, they were too slow, and not many could get away. Most had barely taken a few steps before they were sent flying.

Those who did manage to run didn’t get far before they were easily taken down by the Blood Soul.

"Are these guys going to build another underground base?"

Zhang Xian reached the top of the hill and spotted a small stone house up ahead. Inside, someone was digging a hole. His eyebrows knitted into a fierce frown.

He had only ever seen two such bases. However, he didn’t believe that the Voice of God only had these two bases. There must be more elsewhere, and the quantity remained unknown.

If there were many such bases scattered around the world, it would indeed be problematic. The influence of the Voice of God would undoubtedly be terrifying.

"Roar..."

Before long, the Blood Soul arrived.

Zhang Xian chuckled and turned his head to ask, "All taken care of?"

The Blood Soul nodded.

"Hmm."

Zhang Xian smiled faintly, his gaze sweeping over the hilltop. "Let’s go, we’ll head back first."

The Blood Soul turned and followed behind Zhang Xian.

...

Inside a villa in Yanjing.

After dinner, Zhang Xian settled down on a living room sofa, pondering how to make money.

For him right now, slow accumulation was not an option. He needed a significant amount of money as fast as possible to maintain his series of plans.

"Thinking about how to earn money?" Mo Shaoyun walked over and asked.

Zhang Xian chuckled and replied, "Not really."

"If you really can’t make it, just take it slow. Don’t rush."

Mo Shaoyun sat down next to Zhang Xian and said while staring straight ahead: "I know you’re under a lot of pressure. We’ll help you find a solution."

"Hehe..."

Zhang Xian chuckled, grasping Mo Shaoyun’s hand and said, "You guys don’t need to worry about this stuff. I will figure it out. You just do what you need to do."

Mo Shaoyun tightened her grip on Zhang Xian’s hand after taking a glance at him.

"Um... Elder Sister Shaoyun, may I have a kiss?" After feeling Mo Shaoyun’s hand squeeze tighter, Zhang Xian asked.

Mo Shaoyun pulled her hand back swiftly after taking a look at Zhang Xian.

Zhang Xian remained dumbfounded, feeling frustrated.

He had only wanted a single kiss, yet she wouldn’t agree. Just how perverse was this? Could there be anything more ridiculous than this?

"Don’t look at me like that." Mo Shaoyun said in annoyance.

Zhang Xian slapped his forehead and quickly averted his gaze.

Mo Shaoyun sneaked a glance at Zhang Xian. Seeing that Yao Rao and the other women hadn’t come out yet, she suddenly pouted and gave Zhang Xian a quick peck on the cheek.

A cool sensation ran through him, and Zhang Xian was left stunned, frozen.

Mo Shaoyun... had just kissed him? Was her tightly sealed heart finally beginning to open?

He wiped his nose, then quickly turned to look at Mo Shaoyun, asking, "Elder Sister Shaoyun, um... could we do it somewhere else? I think it feels better talking while kissing."

"Don’t push your luck."

Mo Shaoyun turned her head, looking at Zhang Xian. "You leave me with no confidence as you are now. I said it before, when you make me feel safe, then we’ll discuss other things."

"But I’m very obedient right now!" Zhang Xian said excitedly.

Mo Shaoyun flashed a small smile, looking at Zhang Xian, "Whether you’re obedient or not, I will judge. I won’t believe you easily if you just say it."

"Alright! I will continue to try."

Zhang Xian gave a bitter smile, saying, "But it’s just a kiss. Do you really need to be like this? After all, you are my fiancée! Given our relationship, we can’t even kiss?"

"When I say no, it’s no. Don’t be so foolish.

Mo Shaoyun looked at Zhang Xian, "For you guys, the best strategy is to keep you unsatisfied."

Zhang Xian slapped his forehead, looking gloomy.

Mo Shaoyun glanced at Zhang Xian, but ignored his sullen mood, turning on the TV to watch.

"Ring-ring-ring..."

Suddenly, a cell phone ring rang out loudly.

Zhang Xian took out his phone and looked, then answered, "Elder Sister Jing Yi, what made you think of calling me today?"

"I... I wanted to ask if you were interested in attending the trade fair at the Big Buddha Temple."

Zhang Xian was startled and asked, "What trade fair?"

"It’s a trading fair between our ancient sects! But this time it’s public. So, people who aren’t from the ancient sects can also attend."

Zhang Xian laughed, "You don’t say?"

"Why can’t I say? The trade fair is quite common!"

Zhang Xian laughed, "I didn’t mean that, but I’ve been needing money recently and didn’t know how to fill this huge gap. This fair for me is really timely, practically perfect. It seems like stacks of money are waving at me from ahead."
