Chapter 164: I can’t afford to use you
Translator: 549690339
In addition, it seemed that Xia qingchen had come here to buy a residence from the start.
It was only because he didn’t have enough stars that he went to other counters to exchange for stars.
It was just that why didn’t Xia qingchen do the exchange at his counter? why did he go to the counter next door instead?
Shopkeeper Zhou was slightly displeased and reproached, ‘”‘This disciple, since you’re buying the things I need at my counter, and then going to another counter to exchange for stars, are you intentionally making things difficult for
Xia qingchen’s eyes were calm.
He had no intention of being calculative with Chen runzhi.
A nobody was not worth his time.
However, shopkeeper Zhou didn’t know anything and mistakenly thought that Xia qingchen was the one in the wrong. He naturally had to explain clearly.
I was going to give this sword-shaped bronze plate to the person in charge of your counter, but she likes to lecture me. She would rather lecture me for being ignorant than to look at this bronze plate!
“Although I don’t care about trifles, I don’t have the habit of sticking my warm face to a cold butt.
What?
At the very beginning, Xia qingchen had handed it over to Chen runzhi for appraisal and to be exchanged at his counter?
“Chen runzhi, is that true?” Shopkeeper Zhou’s face turned red with anger.
He could already feel the mocking gazes of the other nine shopkeepers.
Such a large sum of money had actually been given to his competitor by Chen runzhi, whom he was so proud of.
What a great irony!
Chen runzhi’s heart sank as she explained, “”it’s not like that. I didn’t say anything. It’s his pride that misunderstood my words.”
Pride?
Xia qingchen shook his head and didn’t wish to waste his breath explaining. He then said to shopkeeper Zhou, ” just take it that I’m in the wrong. I’m buying a superior residence now. Is there a problem? ‘
Shopkeeper Zhou’s face was as dark as water. He was suppressing his anger.
Then, he slapped him.
However, the person who had drawn it wasn’t Xia qingchen.
It was Chen runzhi who was behind him.
With a crisp sound, a red palm print appeared on Chen runzhi’s face.
The makeup on her face fell like fine snow, making her face half red and half pale.
“Shopkeeper Zhou, I really …”
“Shut up!” Shopkeeper Zhou turned around and glared at her. His eyes were as big as copper bells.”You think I’m easy to fool?”
If her attitude was normal, would Xia qingchen have run to another counter?
Did he not find it troublesome?
Moreover, from Xia qingchen’s words and actions, he didn’t seem to be someone with excessive self-esteem.
One could imagine that Chen runzhi must have bullied the fact that Xia qingchen was a new disciple and intentionally gave him a bad attitude. Who knew, she might even speak coldly to him.
Only then did he leave in anger.
NOW, she was still pretending to be Innocent to deceive mm.
“Get lost! This old man can’t afford to use someone like you!” Shopkeeper Zhou angrily rebuked.
Chen runzhi’s expression was bitter.
She had worked hard for two and a half months. In another half a month, she would be able to complete this counter mission and get the star that belonged to her.
But all of it was gone in an instant!
She covered her face and left the heavenly star Hall in anger and hatred.
She was not convinced.
He was unwilling!
A newbie had actually caused him to lose a star!
Shopkeeper Zhou was filled with anger and hatred. He turned around and cast an apologetic gaze at Xia qingchen. “This old man doesn’t know how to use people and has made things difficult for you. I’m sorry.”
Xia qingchen calmly spoke. it’s fine. I won’t lose anything. Can I exchange for a superior-grade residence now? ”
“Of course!” Shopkeeper Zhou said with a smile.
The other party had enough stars, so he could exchange as he wished. As the manager, he could not stop him.
Hence, Xia qingchen chose a residence named tingxue house.
As long as he successfully passed the entrance test and became an official disciple, he could start moving in.
“Tingxue house?” Upon seeing that Xia qingchen had chosen this room, a hint of awkwardness appeared on manager Zhou’s face.
Xia qingchen’s brows raised.
Of the eight super-class residences, only tingxue house was empty.
no, you only need to have a star. It’s just that there are many competitors at the tingxue house. If you insist on choosing this place, you might have trouble in the future. Shopkeeper Zhou’s hint was already very obvious.
Only the senior advanced disciples could live in a superior residence.
The tingxue house had long been targeted by an experienced disciple, but they were temporarily lacking in stars to buy.
If Xia qingchen bought this place, he would definitely be noticed by that advanced disciple in the future.
“It’s fine!” Xia qingchen calmly spoke.
There were rules in Nebula sect. How could that advanced disciple break the rules and do something to him?
“Alright,” he said. Shopkeeper Zhou didn’t try to stop him.
Since Xia qingchen was able to obtain Arhat red bitterness’s identity token, he most likely wasn’t a simple character.
He might have a deep background?
He might not be afraid of that advanced disciple.
Hence, Xia qingchen successfully obtained the proof.
At the same time, he retrieved the sword-shaped copper plate.
The sword-shaped copper plate was the disciple’s trophy, and the heavenly star Hall would not confiscate it. It would be returned to the disciple after an appraisal and registration.
“Where is young master Xia temporarily staying?” “I’ll pay you a visit another day,” manager yang said with a smile.
Xia qingchen thought for a moment and said, “at the foot of the mountain.”
After he finished speaking, he left, leaving behind a group of shopkeepers looking at each other.
At the foot of the mountain?
That was the place where the uninitiated disciples were waiting for the test, right?
Could it be that Xia qingchen hadn’t officially entered the sect?
A disciple who had not entered the sect had bought the tingxue house, one of the eight superior residences.
This was simply unprecedented!
If word got out, it would be enough to cause a stir in the entire sect.
Manager yang was stunned for a long time before he quickly said, “”Don’t spread the news that the snow listening tower has been bought.” Everyone nodded in agreement.
It was a matter of privacy for disciples to exchange for things, and the heavenly star Hall had the obligation to keep it a secret.
Chen runzhi.
When she left the heavenly star Hall, she could faintly hear the words ‘Xia qingchen’ in the conversation behind her.
It must be the name of the newcomer!
With resentment in her heart, she returned to the low-class residence that she had bought with great difficulty.
“Runzhi, you don’t look so good.”
A 24-year-old man was already waiting inside the residence.
Chen runzhi’s expression immediately changed. She forced a smile and went up to him.”Big brother Yuan, why are you here?”
The man was Chen runzhi’s partner, an intermediate disciple with a very high status.
His name was Yuan chaohui.
Yuan chaohui sighed. this batch of newcomers has been settled down. A few outstanding seedlings have also been given appropriate guidance. Naturally, they came back earlier.
As an intermediate disciple, Yuan chaohui naturally did not lack low-level female disciples who took the initiative to throw themselves at him.
Chen runzhi was one of them.
“You haven’t said anything yet. Why do you look so pale?” Yuan chaohui asked again.
I ran into a jinx named Xia and lost one of my stars. Brother Yuan, you have to help me, ” Chen runzhi said angrily.
“Speak clearly, what happened?” Yuan chaohui felt strange.
Chen runzhi was a senior low-level disciple. How could a newcomer make her so angry?
Thus, Chen runzhi explained the situation with more details.
Of course, she didn’t mention the sword-shaped bronze plate and the shopkeepers.
The heavenly star Hall had the obligation to keep their guests ‘privacy a secret. Once it was leaked, they would be held accountable.
Chen runzhi only wanted to take revenge on Xia qingchen and didn’t wish to be punished again.
Hence, she could only say that Xia qingchen was being unreasonable and had caused manager Zhou to punish her.
After hearing this, Yuan chaohui sneered, “surnamed Xia, 18 years old, not yet a disciple?” Hehe, what a coincidence!” He immediately connected the dots. Xia qingchen!
