The Immortal Way is Fierce

Chapter 57 Darkness in the Heart
To be honest, Zhang Jingyuan doesn't think it's because of his dark psychology. After all, judging from the actions of An Pengju and his group, these people are here for him!
Now that all the money and goods were gone, An Pengju came to find him and brought such a large group of people, especially since all of them, except An Pengju, were late-stage Qi refining monks.

It is really hard for Zhang Jingyuan to believe that An Pengju now has any special kindness towards him.

He now felt that because he saw the body of the red-eyed anaconda, An Pengju felt that he could not defeat him, so he pretended to be a snake and used twelve spiritual stones to get the amber flower he wanted from him.

Then bring someone over to intercept and kill him. In this way, all the spiritual stones and elixirs will fall into your hands.

If this is the case, he can only say that An Pengju has good acting skills at a young age.

The more he thought about it, the more Zhang Jingyuan felt that this was the most likely possibility, and the killing intent in his eyes became more obvious and hot!
Even at this time, Zhang Jingyuan was already planning how to successfully leave Yunhua Star after killing An Pengju and the others.

It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge after ten years. After his cultivation reaches the level of foundation building, he will naturally find An Qing to do it again and completely settle this grudge.

Of course, the premise is that An Qing is still alive after Yunhua Star explodes.

After carefully recalling it, Zhang Jingyuan determined that after the explosion of Yunhua Star, An Qingxian was not only still alive, but his cultivation had also been promoted to the Golden Core stage, and he even held a position in Yunhaixing.

But later, he left the Yunhai Galaxy and didn't know about An Qingxian.

But it seems that not long after he left, An Qing disappeared. He probably died in some secret realm or was plotted by a demon cultivator. This is too common in the world of cultivation.

"Friend, you are indeed here. You run so fast, but it's easy for me to find a meal."

Seeing Zhang Jingyuan hanging on the treetop, An Pengju suddenly looked overjoyed and continued to walk quickly towards Zhang Jingyuan.

Encore!

Zhang Jingyuan couldn't help but sneer in his heart. At this time, An Pengju can still continue to act. He is such a natural actor. No wonder he was deceived before, thinking that An Pengju is really a kind person.

"Why are you looking for me? Do you want to get these twelve spiritual stones back?"

Zhang Jingyuan stared at An Pengju and said with a smile.

At this time, as long as An Pengju made the slightest movement, he dared to ensure that the flying sword would pass through An Pengju's forehead as soon as possible.

"Friend, you are joking, how could I really do this..."

An Pengju was walking towards Zhang Jingyuan, chatting and laughing, but seeing that Zhang Jingyuan's expression seemed serious, he subconsciously stopped and stood there.

As soon as his thoughts changed, An Pengju seemed to realize something. He waved his hand and signaled the monks behind him to step back.

"Friend, I, An Peng, was rude to Meng Lang. I apologize to you, but I really have no intention of looking for you to get these twelve spirit stones back. I just want to ask you to be our guide. "

With that said, An Pengju bowed his head to the end again and gave Zhang Jingyuan a salute.

To be honest, if Zhang Jingyuan hadn't said this, he wouldn't have realized there was anything wrong with his approach.

They had obviously spent all their money and goods, and everyone went their separate ways. He even led a group of people to chase them. No matter how you looked at them, you felt that they had evil intentions.

"Pengju, why are you telling this remnant of the mountains so much? Misunderstanding is just a misunderstanding. Does he really dare to take action?"

At this time, behind An Pengju, a late-stage Qi Refining monk dressed in black stood up and spoke loudly, and even looked at Zhang Jingyuan with provocative eyes.

He had heard that Zhang Jingyuan actually cheated An Pengju of at least five spiritual stones, and he was angry with Zhang Jingyuan.

Later, I heard what An Pengju said. Today I met a mountain remnant who was so powerful that he could kill a red-eyed anaconda alone, and so on, and he even scorned Zhang Jingyuan.

He has a fourth-grade high-grade spiritual root and has been opening his veins for ten years. His father and ancestors were all foundation-building monks. He was lucky enough to reach the late stage of Qi refining. He was not sure that he could kill a red-eyed anaconda. How could this be possible for a young mountain remnant? Killed a red-eyed anaconda.

It must be that the remnants of the mountains had used some kind of trap or a poisonous trick, or maybe the red-eyed anaconda had started a fight with other monsters. He had a fight between a crane and a clam, and the fisherman benefited, and he was lucky enough to get such an amber flower.

This little trick could fool An Pengju, but not him.

Now seeing Zhang Jingyuan guarding them like a thief, he was naturally even more angry.

Of course, maybe in his subconscious, the reason he was really angry was because An Pengju was here, otherwise, he would directly kill the remaining people in the mountains.

Could it be that the twelve spirit stones and the snake eyes and snake gall obtained by the mountain remnant from the red-eyed anaconda fell into his hands.

A mere remnant from the mountains, a dog-like thing, just kill him. It's not like he hasn't done it before.

"Guide?"

Zhang Jingyuan said in surprise.

He really didn't expect that after being vigilant for so long, An Pengju would actually say such a thing to him.

"We plan to go two thousand miles deeper into Canglang Demonic Mountain. My friend, you often move around Canglang Demonic Mountain, so you must be very familiar with this place. That's why I took the liberty of asking you to be a guide."

With that said, An Pengju took out a map-like parchment from his arms, then raised his hands high and walked towards Zhang Jingyuan step by step. When he reached a place ten meters away from Zhang Jingyuan, he threw the map to Zhang Jingyuan.

Zhang Jingyuan casually took the map and while looking at it, he stared at An Pengju and the monks behind him.

Indeed, the mark on the map was still two to three thousand kilometers away from here, and the marked location was not far from his destination, about seven or eight hundred miles away.

Looking at An Pengju's sincere face again, Zhang Jingyuan had already believed An Pengju's words seven to eight times.

After all, not to mention that there is indeed a map, just saying that An Pengju is standing so close to himself is a sign of sincerity.

An Pengju had seen the corpse of a red-eyed anaconda and knew his own strength.

If he was really deceived, An Pengju would be the first to die once he did it.

The other most important reason is that Zhang Jingyuan is confident in his ability to recognize people. He met so many people in his previous life and rarely made any mistakes.

And even if there are those treacherous and evil people who make him look wrong, it is definitely not something that a young man like An Pengju can do.

If An Pengju could do it, he might have to consider whether An Pengju was reborn like him, or whether his body was taken away by that old devil.

As for Zhang Jingyuan's unfounded speculations about An Pengju just now, Zhang Jingyuan has no shame.

In the world of cultivation, there is nothing wrong with being careful and thinking of people in a more bad light.

Because those who don’t do this will basically die early.

Even to put it in a bad way, in the world of cultivation, the bottom line of human nature is meant to be broken through. There is no lower limit and no moral integrity when comparing one person to another.

As for the late-stage Qi Refining monk in black clothes who had just made such nonsense, Zhang Jingyuan tugged at the corner of his mouth, and if the grasshopper-like thing had the chance, he would just press him to death.

"How are you going to ask me to be your guide?"

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Jingyuan asked directly.

Anyway, the destinations are not far apart, so it would be fine to follow An Pengju, and it would save some trouble.

In addition, he felt that not only could he earn some guide fees, but he could even gain some unexpected benefits.

As he spoke, Zhang Jingyuan's eyes quickly glanced at the black-clothed monk, and an inexplicable smile flashed at the corner of his mouth.

"Two spirit stones a day, how about giving five spirit stones to your friends when you get to the place?"

Seemingly familiar with Zhang Jingyuan's desire for money, An Pengju directly offered Zhang Jingyuan a high price.

"I am satisfied with this price, but I still have two conditions. I will not take action when I encounter a monster for the first time. Once I do, I will share 30% of all gains from killing monsters, including the monsters you kill. "

Before Zhang Jingyuan finished speaking, the black-clothed monk said angrily: "You, a remnant of the mountains, are you going too far? I let you be a guide and give you spiritual stones because I think highly of you. You are so shameless. I dare to ask for 30% of all harvests.”

"If you have the ability, just don't let me do it. I think some of you came to Canglang Demon Mountain for some training purposes. I won't do it just so that you can get full experience."

Zhang Jingyuan's lips curled up slightly and he said disapprovingly.

To be honest, not only was he not annoyed by the black-clothed monk's words, he even felt familiar with them.

This is how those serious, so-called disciples of the Immortal family should behave. On the contrary, disciples like An Pengju, who are polite and sincere in everything, especially those who are willing to give money, are an anomaly.

If he is mean-mouthed, he will be mean-mouthed. He has many ways to prevent him from being mean-mouthed, or even completely unable to stand up, which is not impossible.

To be honest, after the monk in black said these two words, Zhang Jingyuan stabbed his black knife without any disturbance in his heart.

"you!"

Zhang Jingyuan was choked by Zhang Jingyuan's words and couldn't say a word. The monk in black pointed at Zhang Jingyuan and became furious.

After about ten breaths, he put down his fingers, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He had already sentenced Zhang Jingyuan to death in his heart. When An Pengju was gone, he would definitely let the mountain remnants in front of him know what the consequences would be if he offended him.

But little did he know that his thoughts were also Zhang Jingyuan's thoughts, and Zhang Jingyuan had already put a big cross on him.

I originally planned to give some more advice, but I didn't expect that the monk in black actually stopped.

An Pengju suddenly became happy, ran over to comfort Zhang Jingyuan, and gave today's spiritual stone, and even an extra piece, as an apology.

If there is a system prompt on An Pengju at this time, he will probably receive a prompt of [Zhang Jingyuan's favorability +1].

As long as he is willing to pay more, he must be a good person. The smile on Zhang Jingyuan's face grew stronger and stronger.
