C7 Harassment

The next morning, Master Zhu cleaned himself up. He tidied up his clothes in a serious manner and even shaved his beard. It was quite a surprise for them to be familiar with his elders and deacons.

Who didn't know that this alchemist was always sloppy? Even though his abilities weren't small, he still had a wretched look on his face.

Even back then, Old Zhu didn't have this kind of attitude toward his new wife, but now, he was treating a sixteen to seventeen year old youth with the utmost respect, as if he was a pill refining master. It was enough to shock a person to the point that his jaw dropped!

Xia Ling had not slept the whole night. He was sitting cross-legged and operating his martial arts, but his mind was completely refreshed. Even though he was currently only in the Qi-entraining Middle Rank, his perception was comparable to the strength of complete mastery of the Vein Refining, which made the youth feel extremely comfortable.

With his perception, he could naturally feel that the apothecary from yesterday was already waiting at the entrance. The teenager pushed open the door and said with a smile, "Good morning, Master Zhu."

In Lao Zhu's eyes, compared to yesterday, Xia Ling's temperament was even more ethereal and ethereal. He politely cupped his hands and said, "Yesterday, you told me to ask the stewards about the alchemy lab."

"Oh?" Xia Ling was slightly surprised and said with a smile, "Master Zhu does things very quickly."

Master Zhu walked up and said to Xia Ling, "The clan has always been strict about the establishment of the alchemy room. As a manager of the alchemy room, according to usual practice, if one was at least a third ranked alchemist, their cultivation would be above the Vein Refining realm."

The young man frowned slightly. It wasn't a problem for him to become a grade-3 apothecary, but in his previous life, he was already at the level of a grade-9 and had even more experience pill recipes that transcended this era.

But in terms of cultivation and Vein Refining … If he tried his best to break through, it would only take him an entire night. But it could affect the height in the future.

Of course, the big man understood Xia Ling's concerns. He embarrassedly rubbed his hands together, "Regarding the cultivation restriction, if you don't mind, you can form a team with me, Old Zhu. With you, the clan will definitely support you! "

Xia Ling nodded as if he was deep in thought. It wasn't impossible for him to come up with such a solution. One of the reasons for him to refine pills was to lay a foundation for his future cultivation, and the second was to accumulate some resources.

The man in front of him also seemed to be a reliable person. He was old friends with his parents, so it was fine to stay with him.

"Then, in the future, please give me your guidance." The young man cupped his hands and said with a smile.

Master Zhu was overjoyed and quickly said, "I don't dare to accept it, but I need you to give me some pointers. "Old Zhu, I will be leaving first and will be making some preparations in the alchemy lab. You can come later."

Master Zhu was overjoyed to have a pill refiner with the ability to be his own master. Since he couldn't even sit still, he decided to inform the manager in charge and settle the matter as soon as possible.

Xia Ling was also happy to see the big guy's fervent attitude, so he told him to go back first. After accompanying his sister and eating breakfast, he also headed to the alchemy room.

From Xia Ling's residence to the alchemy room, they had to pass through the large plaza in front of the family encampment. It was also the usual martial arts practice field. It was already early in the morning and many of the young disciples of the clan were already practicing under the guidance of the Martial Masters.

These were the core strength of the clan's younger generation. Most of them had actually broken through to the early level of Qi Drawing, and among them were two or three mid stage youths!

"Yo, isn't that the medicine seller brat? Yesterday's morning training was over, do you still have the face to come today? " As Xia Ling was walking past, a thin, white-masked youth in the crowd suddenly saw him and mocked him.

The man's eyes were narrow, and he looked mean. The way he looked at Xia Ling became playful, as if he found some toy.

Xia Ling shifted his gaze. In his memory, there seemed to be a little bit of an impression of the person over there. He was the son of Butler Lu, and he was cultivating together with his family. His name was Lv Yiliang.

Lv Yiliang's voice also attracted the attention of the others. When they saw Xia Ling, they surrounded him with a malicious smile: "Xia Ling, why didn't you come to train yesterday?" "But our brothers missed it so much."

"Cultivation cannot be wasted, you, who can't even break through the Qi Drawing Realm, are still running away from morning training," one person said as he shook his head with a strange smile, "This way you will be stuck in the Foundation Establishment Stage for a lifetime."

"Don't make fun of me," a person suddenly jumped out, looking extremely righteous, "Yesterday I saw Xia Xiong bringing Young Master Lin Family to Wu Tie's house … I'm afraid his sister has been caught in debt, ha-ha ha! "

"That's right, that's right. What a pitiful child. Quickly let your big brother comfort you! Hahaha!" This group of people laughed without restraint.

The youth frowned as he remembered. Because of Xia Ling's poor talent and cowardly character, he became the target of bullying from his brethren. These people were the worst. Not only did they want money from Xia Ling, they even started fighting!

When the other disciples of the family looked at these few people, they did not dare to say anything. Xia Ling wasn't the only one they bullied. The others were the victims of their crimes. It was just that today, Xia Ling might be in trouble. Yesterday, he didn't bring the money that Lv Yiliang wanted, and even let them go. What he was about to suffer now might not be an ordinary insult.

However, his reaction was completely unexpected.

Xia Ling looked at the few people in front of him and said lightly, "Listen up, slap your own face now. I will not pursue this matter, including previous ones."

"Wow, what a grand atmosphere. Xia Ling, did you eat the wrong medicine?" These people were first stumped by Xia Ling's indifferent aura, then they got angry. A tall young man said in a weird voice as he began to move his limbs.

Lv Yiliang's face was sullen: "Xia Ling, we only made a few jokes, yet you dare to say such words, not caring about the feelings of camaraderie. "Then don't blame us for teaching you a lesson."

Looking at their expressions, Xia Ling shook his head and sighed: "It seems that you have no intention of repenting. This is truly like a tiger descending to the bottom of the sun. There seems to be no way to avoid such a low status situation when I attack you guys. "

Before he could finish his sentence, the tall man suddenly rushed forward with the intention of grabbing onto the young man's collar and impatiently shouted, "Identity! Wait until you have been beaten up until you scream miserably. Then you will know who you are!" This person had the strength of Qi-entraining Middle Rank, and judging from his actions, he was approaching in full fury!

The hearts of the surrounding people tightened. This tall man's methods were especially vicious. Two months ago, he broke three of his fingers while arguing with someone! It was said that the child had been hit quite hard and had not shown up until now.

However, the action that was determined to win actually missed. Xia Ling disappeared on the spot in an instant and flashed to the side.

"Whap." With a clean and crisp sound, the tall and big body flew up like a sandbag, spinning and rolling to the side.

The group of people didn't even manage to see the youth's movements. The tall one had already fainted on the ground. The left side of his face was visibly swollen, as if someone had slapped him with a wooden board!

"This, this..." Everyone else was stunned, Lv Yiliang's face turned pale, "What did you do just now, what demonic technique is that? "No, you broke through to Foundation Establishment!"

Xia Ling ignored him. He took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped his right hand. He then threw away the handkerchief in disdain.

"I understand." Lv Yiliang forced a smile and said loudly, "You broke through Foundation Establishment today, so you must be at the early Qi Drawing Realm now, right? We were all too careless and thought you were still at your original level. However, that fellow suffered at your hands. "

As he spoke, he seemed to have confirmed his words and regained his usual spirit. "Hmph, but I am at the peak of the Qi Drawing Realm. Do you think that you can face me who is getting serious?"

However, what Lv Yiliang did not know was that Xia Ling was now a cultivator of Qi-entraining Middle Rank! And when he had just stepped into the middle stage, he was able to defeat the Vein Refining rank expert, Lin Cang!

"Yeah, yeah, I must have been too careless." The person behind him wiped the sweat off his forehead and said with certainty.

The other one also shouted, "We don't only have a Peak Qi Drawing Realm, we also have several Mid Rank experts. "Xia Ling, how dare you offend us like this, we're dead for sure this time!"

"Hmm, that makes sense." The youth unexpectedly also nodded, "Then please come at me together, don't waste my time."
