A dozen or so youths were itching to act, as if at the command of their leader they would swarm forward and break the Taoist's arms and legs.
Li Dao stood with a smile, maintaining his amiable demeanor even as he faced a dozen or so fierce young men wielding weapons.
I can't scare people away.
Qingtian Platform has a great name. Just based on this name, it's sure to have a place among angel investors.
Just as everyone was waiting for Li Dao's reply, the other party said kindly, "But I have no money left. How about you lend me some more, and I'll pay you back when I have the money?"
"Damn it, ptooey, are you kidding me? Break his limbs!" The leading youth spat, pointed his iron bar at Li Dao, and gave the order.
After breaking the Taoist's limbs, send him to sell his ass. Since he can't repay his debts, he'll sell his ass to pay them off.
But you know what, this Taoist priest is young and handsome. Maybe some wealthy man would like this type? I'll ask him when the time comes.
"Remember not to break it, or no one will pay you back." Thinking of this, the young man added.
Upon hearing this, the henchmen grabbed their weapons and prepared to break the young Taoist's limbs.
"Why bother!" Li Dao sighed and gently patted the young man at the front.
With a loud bang, the young man staggered and flew backward, knocking over the person behind him. The two of them tumbled several times before finally losing consciousness.
The young man was bleeding from all seven orifices, but he was not dead and was still breathing. Li Dao had been very gentle and had not taken his life.
Taoists emphasize self-cultivation and nurturing their character, yet their hearts remain at peace.
You could say that if you displease me, I'll beat you up, but I won't kill you, because that would be against the law.
"Have we encountered real skill?!" The leading youth looked at his unconscious underling, his eyes flickering, clearly showing signs of wanting to back down.
boom! Bang bang! Bang bang bang!
However, before the leading youth could speak, Li Dao had already made the decision for him. With a series of collision sounds, one after another, the fierce youths lay sprawled on the ground.
Yes, she slept peacefully.
Of course, Li Dao didn't kill them. Otherwise, with his current strength, he could have stained the ground with color and even left some chunks of meat and bits of flesh.
“I’ve already said it, alas!” Li Dao sighed, then looked at the leading youth and moved over.
The young leader looked at his underlings on the ground, each bleeding from one of their seven orifices. Cold sweat soaked his back, his limbs trembled, and he was completely unable to move. He felt his heart pounding and racing like a water pump.
He was scared!
Damn it, I feel like I got ripped off by my boss this time!
He had initially thought the Taoist priest was just an ordinary one, but it turned out the little temple was hiding a real dragon! With a few quick moves, he provided his underling with a set of sleep aids.
“Layman, are you afraid?” Li Daohe asked kindly.
The young man in the lead quickly shook his head: "No, no, the Taoist priest is truly a master of divine skills, unparalleled in the martial arts world!"
Li Dao noticed that the young man's forehead was covered in cold sweat and his speech was slurred.
I think I overreacted. Look how scared the child is. Not only has his arrogance vanished, but he's even become incoherent.
"This humble monk is currently short of money, layman..."
"Master, you don't need to say anything, I understand, I understand. It's been a long time since I've offered incense to the temple, this is my donation..."
Before Li Dao could finish speaking, the young man quickly took out his phone and made a bank transfer. His movements were smooth and fluid, and he was clearly not a novice.
If you can't afford to mess with them, just spend money to buy peace of mind; that's something I'm quite good at.
"Layman, you should do more good deeds in the future. I have high hopes for your platform!" After receiving the text message from the bank transferring 100,000 yuan, Li Dao did not make things difficult for the young man anymore. Instead, he left after saying this.
High hopes ×
Sustainable wool?
Starting today, Qingtian Platform is officially listed as an early-stage angel investor.
As for why it's in the early stages, it's because the Taotie invasion has begun, and money is practically worthless; strength is what matters.
As the young man watched the Taoist priest strut away, and then looked at his underlings lying haphazardly on the ground, bleeding from all seven orifices, a chill ran through him. At the same time, he cursed the platform owner and his ancestors.
Damn it, can't you at least investigate the situation before coming to collect debts?
If I hadn't been clever enough to avoid disaster by spending money, there might have been another one on earth.
Moreover, judging from the tone of the Taoist priest before he left, it seemed like this wasn't the last time. Is he treating the platform like a pig?
No, I have to resign and leave Juxia City. My cousin is doing well in Tianhe City, so I'll go and work with him.
As for these underlings, if they want to follow, they will certainly enjoy wealth and honor; if they don't, it won't cause any major harm.
Thinking of this, the young man felt the vastness of the world and the chill in his heart dissipated considerably. Looking at his underlings on the ground, he sighed, took out his phone, and dialed an ambulance.
After leaving, Li Dao went directly to Juxia City, where he planned to stay for a while.
We need to contact some of the master's connections to see if we can get the qualification to study at Longhu Mountain, and then decide whether to go to Longhu Mountain.
Li Dao found a hotel to stay in, then took out his master's phone notes and started contacting his master's friends, but he had no luck until the afternoon.
Helpless, Li Dao had no choice but to leave the hotel and go to a familiar restaurant nearby for a buffet.
Although he had the nutrient solution given to him by Angel Yan, he tried to use it as little as possible. The nutrient solution was a cultivation resource and should not be wasted on filling his stomach.
With bone training complete, the next step is to train the internal organs.
However, the most difficult parts of the human body to temper are the internal organs.
Because the internal organs are the most vulnerable parts of the human body, a slight mistake can easily cause massive internal bleeding, ultimately leading to one's own death.
"Among martial arts, there are internal training methods that vibrate the bone marrow and cleanse the internal organs, such as the Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound of Xingyi Quan, the Hum and Ha Breath of Bajiquan, the Yi Jin Jing, and the Xi Sui Jing."
"It's a pity that my master's Tai Chi only had the moves, but no corresponding internal training methods, so it couldn't shake the bone marrow and cleanse the internal organs."
Li Dao felt regretful. Although he could create his own techniques, he still needed the relevant knowledge.
Internal training methods are the core of each school of martial arts, and it is basically impossible to borrow or practice them unless you join their martial arts school.
Li Dao could not possibly betray Longyun Taoist Temple for the sake of internal cultivation methods. He was the only remaining disciple of the temple, and the lineage could not be broken.
As for joining the Super God Academy and then borrowing internal training methods from various schools through the official channels, this path is directly ruled out.
Having grown accustomed to a carefree and leisurely life, entering the Super God Academy would be like a bird trapped in a cage, unable to move freely.
Chapter 35 Ahri
"So expensive."
Just then, a sweet female voice came from the doorway. All the customers around looked at the beautiful woman at the door. Couples dared not look, while those without partners stared at her freely.
"Su Xiaoli?" Li Dao also heard the female voice. The voice was very familiar. Perhaps it was because of his strong comprehension, but he could imprint the appearance of everyone he had ever met in his mind, just like a money printing machine.
The beautiful woman standing in the store was her first customer, and she even had a thin red string tied around her neck, which was the red string that came with the sachet.
Ignoring the unbridled stares, Su Xiaoli paid, picked out a lot of food and a drink, and then looked at the empty seats in the store.
Although no one was sitting there, there were people around, and some people wanted to sit alone.
Because she spends all day livestreaming from home, Su Xiaoli has fair skin, and you can see the veins under her skin.
"Layman, please sit here." Just then, a clear and familiar voice entered Su Xiaoli's ears.
Su Xiaoli looked in the direction of the voice and saw a somewhat familiar young Taoist sitting in the corner. There was no one sitting in the spot against the wall, and she noticed the clear look in the young Taoist's eyes.
So she went over.
Because she inherited her mother's fairy-like genes, she was not only beautiful but also had a charming voice, which made every man look at her with aggressive eyes.
It was the first time I had ever seen someone look at me with such clear eyes, and that person was a young Taoist priest.
However, this Taoist priest looked familiar, as if I had seen him somewhere before.
"Thank you, Daoist Master." Su Xiaoli said her thanks, then sat down against the wall and put down the plate full of food in her hand.
The walls blocked most of the view, and some guests stopped looking at the beautiful woman after they could no longer see her, and continued eating their food.
A beautiful woman without makeup is hard to find, but it seems she's already taken.
Li Dao saw that Su Xiaoli didn't seem to recognize him, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized it was normal. Every time he broke through in his martial arts realm, he would undergo some changes.
So it's perfectly normal that Su Xiaoli doesn't recognize him.
"Layman, is the sachet you're wearing comfortable?" Su Xiaoli had just sat down when Li Dao finished eating his lamb leg and suddenly asked casually.
Su Xiaoli looked at the young Taoist priest in astonishment, carefully examining his familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar face, and said in surprise, "No wonder you let me sit here, so you're a Taoist priest who sets up a street stall."
"As for the sachet, it's very good. The quality is nice, and it's quite comfortable to wear to sleep. It has a faint fragrance. Why are you asking about this, Master? Do you want to start a street stall again?"
Li Dao shook his head and said, "This humble Taoist has left the Taoist temple and is preparing to travel the mortal world."
"Does the Taoist priest have any plans to go anywhere?" Su Xiaoli asked.
“Juxia City is the first stop. After that, I will head north along the road,” Li Dao said truthfully.
Su Xiaoli is a second-generation member of the Super Soldier Corps and has not yet joined the Super God Academy, so it's fine to tell the other party.
"Does the Taoist priest have a place to stay? Would you like me to introduce you?" Su Xiaoli took a sip of her drink, which was similar to iced soda and had a rather intoxicating taste.
"No need," Li Dao said. "I'm staying at a nearby hotel, and I'll be leaving in a few days."
"Alright then." Su Xiaoli nodded.
The two stopped talking and continued eating.
……
Two hours later, Li Dao finally finished eating.
"Taoist Master, you can really eat!" Su Xiaoli exclaimed in amazement as she sat beside him. He had been eating non-stop for two hours, and it was all meat.
She once thought that the Taoist priest's stomach was like a bottomless pit, never able to be filled.
"I've always had a big appetite, so it's normal for me to eat a lot," Li Dao said calmly, wiping the grease from his mouth.
Su Xiaoli had a look on her face that said, "Do you believe me or not?"
You'd be a fool to believe you. This Taoist priest may seem serious, but what he says is often unreliable. In short, he doesn't speak with any sense of propriety.
After a brief chat, Su Xiaoli learned a little about the young Taoist's personality.
"Having eaten and drunk my fill, I'll head back now. Please enjoy your meal, layman." With that, Li Dao departed.
