"Thirty thousand low-level water essence isn't enough to buy your life."
Li Mo shook his head.
Li Mo knew the Mountains and Rivers Alliance's people could refine pills and tools.
Therefore, Mei Ding couldn't possibly be that poor.
After massaging his throat for a while, Medin was finally able to speak.
Meding said in a hoarse voice.
"I … I left Ling Xiao Mountain for more than half a year, how could I be as rich as I was in Ling Xiao Mountain?
However, when I return to Spirit Firmament Mountain this time, I will be able to obtain quite a lot of rewards. When the time comes, I can give you even more spirit stones. "
Looking at Mei Ding's evasive eyes, he didn't dare to look into them.
Li Mo squatted down to Mei Ding's height and smiled.
"I'm afraid that when I return to Ling Xiao Mountain, I won't be getting spirit stones.
Instead, you asked your Mountains and Rivers Alliance to deal with me, right? "
Mei Ding laughed awkwardly when Li Mo saw through him.
"How is this possible, little brother … little brother has a heaven-defying aptitude.
How could I dare to cause trouble for little brother … "
After Li Mo's lecture, Mei Ding was a lot more well-behaved and couldn't help but flatter Li Mo.
"It doesn't matter to me if you go back and look for the Mountains and Rivers Alliance.
What I'm considering now is how much you can offer in exchange for your life. "
Li Mo shook his head.
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare."
Mei Ding was sweating. 'Mountains and Rivers Alliance aside, Li Mo is the priority.'
Otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to return alive. Anything he said would be pointless.
So Meding thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said,
"I still have some pills here. If you add them up with the Spirit Stones, it will be fifty thousand low-grade Spirit Stones!"
These pills were all pills that Mei Ding had painstakingly refined during this period of time. He was prepared to sell them to other envoys when he returned to Ling Xiao Mountain.
Giving it all to Li Mo made Mei Ding's heart ache.
"Sure."
Li Mo nodded.
Then, the unlucky Mei Ding took out a spirit stone or an elixir.
Li Mo stuffed a spirit stone or pill into the storage bag at his waist. Mei Ding looked pained the whole time.
In the end, Li Mo didn't take Mei Ding's spiritual stones and pills.
As for the few weapons left in Mei Ding's storage bag, Li Mo didn't care for them and let Mei Ding go.
When Li Mo left, Mei Ding was on the verge of tears, howling at the sky.
"What a f * cking bandit!"
Eagle Ravine was next to the mountain where the Eagle Mountain Camp lived, but Li Mo suppressed his cultivation.
So Li Mo used his 9th Body Tempering Stage cultivation to walk for half a day before returning to Eagle Mount Stronghold.
Li Mo's hair was a mess and his face was covered in stubble.
His face was pale and he even changed into the tattered clothes the Elder Council prepared for him.
Li Mo's alias in the Eagle Mountain Camp was Chen Datong. Eagle Mountain Camp's leader was surnamed Ying.
The Chen family was just a small family with low cultivation. The mute Chen Datong had no status in the Eagle Mount Gang at all.
On his way, Li Mo met Eagle Mountain Gang's men.
Every one of them had a playful expression. Some were sneering, while others looked down their noses at Li Mo.
In short, none of them spoke to Li Mo.
This was also the effect that the Elders Guild wanted. Only by doing this would they be able to change into a 'Chen Datong', and no one would notice.
"Damn it!
I forgot to ask Mei Ding where he lived in the camp! "
At the foot of the mountain, Li Mo slapped his forehead and muttered.
Chen Datong was the lowest rung in the Eagle Mountain Camp, so he must've lived at the foot of the mountain.
But among all the run-down houses here, which one was Chen Datong's house?
Just as Li Mo was looking around, a youth was limping toward the mountain.
The youth was thin and carried a pile of firewood on his back, twice his size.
From the young man's limping gait, it could be seen that he had sprained his ankle outside and suffered some injuries.
And on the youth's waist hung the prey he just hunted.
It was a rabbit.
"Yo, Ah Shui, where are you going?"
"Not bad, Ah Shui. You got quite a haul today."
"…"
At this moment, three young men in tattered clothes with faces full of mud surrounded the young man and said with a playful expression.
"I …"
Seeing them, the young Ah Shui was so scared he couldn't speak.
Even his legs, which had not collapsed under the weight of the heavy firewood, kept trembling in the face of these three youths.
"There's meat?
Ah Shui, do you mind if we taste it? "
"We haven't had meat in a long time."
"…"
Seeing the fresh rabbit on Ah Shui's waist, the three were drooling.
Seeing this, Li Mo knew what kind of people these three were.
Every village had people like this. They weren't strong, but they were lazy.
However, they were gluttonous and lazy. They were willing to bully those in the village who were young or old and had low statuses.
Today's scene was a common occurrence in other mountain strongholds.
But Li Mo was high and mighty in the Falling Mountain Camp, so he was oblivious to these lowly matters.
"I …"
The youth took a step back and spoke in a trembling and childish voice.
"My mother is sick. I … I'm giving this to my mother to nourish her."
"What?
Aunt Yun is sick? "
"You can't eat this when sick. You should eat more vegetables.
Wild vegetables are like medicinal herbs, they can also cure diseases. "
"…"
When they heard Aqua's words, the few young men spoke playfully.
Then the one in the middle reached for the rabbit on Ah Shui's waist.
Seeing the arms thicker than his thighs, Ah Shui took a step back, shivering. He missed his prey.
The youth's eyes burned with anger as he scolded.
"Brat, you've got guts!
How dare you dodge!
Go and beat him up! "
"Got it!"
"…"
The young men on both sides were enraged as well. They stretched out their hands towards the young man.
With a crashing sound, the dry firewood fell to the ground with a pitter patter.
Ah Shui accidentally sat on the ground. When Ah Shui raised his head again, all he saw was a sky full of fists.
These youths might be lazy, but they were still Jiuli tribe members.
So even if they didn't cultivate, they were still in the 7th or 8th stage of Body Tempering Stage.
And Ah Shui was only in the 4th stage of Body Tempering Stage. How could he be a match for these three?
Soon, Aqua was forced to the ground by the three young men.
But as if offending them, the three's fists still greeted Ah Shui's body.
These three had lived for more than 20 years and had always been at the bottom of the village.
Any middle-level member of the village could order them around, so they could only throw their weight around in front of people like Ah Shui.
"Pff!
Pff!
Pff … "
The three punched and kicked. Ah Shui held his head with both hands, his body bent on the ground.
All the vital parts of his body were protected by Ah Shui. It could be seen that Ah Shui was very experienced in taking a beating.
He must have been bullied by these people every day.
And from start to finish, the sweating Ah Shui didn't even make a sound.
It wasn't that Ah Shui's heart was persevering, but that he was numb.
Right now, Ah Shui was like a walking corpse. There was no hope or faith in his heart.
He was like a dead man, howling in pain.
Li Mo couldn't help but shake his head when he saw the three had no intention of stopping.
Li Mo watched the whole thing, but the Elder Council gave him a mission.
So Li Mo couldn't act or he'd be exposed.
But after watching for so long, if Li Mo didn't act, Ah Shui would be beaten to death.
Li Mo shook his head and stepped forward.
"Ah!
Wu!
Wu … "
Li Mo pretended to be mute and kept trying to stop them.
"Geezer Chen!
Get out of my way!
If you piss grandpa off, I'll beat you! "
Looking at Chen Datong's stubbled face, the young leader immediately scolded in displeasure.
Li Mo's skin mask gave him the appearance of a middle-aged man, but his face was sickly pale and haggard like an old man.
Li Mo's Chen Datong was in the 9th stage of Body Tempering Stage, but his body was sickly.
So in everyone's eyes, he had no fighting power.
Why would this youth care about Chen Datong?
Seeing the futility of trying to stop them, Li Mo shook his head.
Li Mo used his 9th stage Body Tempering Stage spiritual qi to wrap his fist and threw it at the leading youth.
In order not to expose himself, Li Mo's punch was slow.
The youth spoke in disdain when he saw Li Mo about to attack.
"Sickly old man!
I've given you face, haven't I? "
The young man was fast, dodging Li Mo's punch in the blink of an eye.
The youth followed up with a punch aimed at Li Mo's armpit.
But just as his fist was about to reach Li Mo's armpit, a palm was already waiting for it.
The palm seemed to know in advance that the young man would attack in this direction. The palm turned into a sharp claw and grabbed at the fist.
The fist and claw stopped under Li Mo's armpit, unable to move.
"You!"
The youth was only in the 8th stage of Body Tempering Stage, but he was in his prime.
And Chen Datong was famous for being sickly, so the youth was shocked that Chen Datong could block his punch.
But before Chen Datong could react, Li Mo's palm sent out a hidden force.
With a pop, the youth's fist exploded and dark red blood flowed.
"Ah …"
The lazy young man had never suffered such pain before, so he immediately howled in pain.
The youth even shot behind him, blocking the attack.
The two youths punching Ah Shui were dumbfounded. 'Since when did Chen Datong become so strong?
How dare he? '
Even the zombie-like Aqua was looking at Li Mo with confusion in his eyes.
They were the lowest rung of the stronghold and Ah Shui knew Chen Datong.
Although Ah-Shui didn't talk much with Chen Datong, Ah-Shui knew that Chen Datong was someone who didn't care about anything.
Many times, Chen Datong saw Ah Shui get beaten up but he didn't care.
Why did Chen Datong's temperament change so much today?
"You sickly bastard!"
The youth cursed in a flustered rage. He then roared at the two stupefied youths.
"What are you standing there for?
Beat him up! "
Top grade overlord!
