Chapter 130: Chapter 130: Yuan Ming Receives one Damage after Another!
All the mercenaries in the guild were silently peeking, looking at the whole process.
They were surprised that the woman did not stop the boy but thinking about the pressure he gave off they thought he might be able to do it.
What they did not know was that Li Rong wanted to see Noah suffer like Yuan Ming. to her Noah was a young master who depended on her family to get stronger and used that power to oppress others.
She thought it was unfair to the people like her and Yuan Ming who work so hard and diligently and they only get oppressed in return. After talking about the missions Noah calmly walked out of the guild.
"What do you think, the Demon boy would be able to do it without dying?"
"So we are going for 'demon boy' for him?"
"Why not it suits him."
"We should take some missions too or that boy would take them all."
As soon as Noah's back disappeared they all started talking among themselves, coming up a title for him.
Hearing the last line everyone turned silent.
All of them were either D rank or C rank. If the boy took all of the c rank missions how would they earn money?
They would have to take D rank missions..
All of them hurriedly left after taking their own missions.
Li Rong was surprised to see them motivated for a change and hurriedly helped them mark the missions.
After she was done with her work she noticed that there was still someone there.
It was none other than Yuan Ming!
She had already forgotten about him…. He seemed to be looking at the board with a dazed expression.
"Yuan Ming, how long are you gonna stand there in daze for? Do you want to take another mission?"
Even after calling him, Yuan Ming did not seem to come out of his daze. It was like he had received the news of the death of his non-existent lover..
"Squeak!"
She was surprised to see a beautiful rabbit poking its head out of the bag he was holding.
The rabbit looked all around it as if trying to find something but not finding what it was looking for, a little sad and a little annoyed look surfaced its face.
After coming out of the forest, Yuan Ming asked the hare to hide in the bag and since she was feeling sleepy, she did what he said and slept but as soon as she woke up, she sensed that there was quite an soothing and attractive aura lingering in the air.
The aura that gave her the feeling of Home!
Even though the little hare tried to find who was emitting the aura, it could not find anyone there.
There was only the disgusting brother and an unknown ugly woman in the area. The intelligent beast completely ignored the rest of the humans present like they were insignificant ants.
Seeing that the boy was in a daze, the little hare further got annoyed and jumped on Yuan Ming's shoulder.
*Smack*
"Ouch!"
"Squeak! Squeak.. squeak!!"
Feeling the pain on his cheeks Yuan Ming came out of his shock and looked at Li Rong ignoring the squeaking of his little sister...
"Sister Rong, what was the mercenary rank of the boy?!"
Even though he saw him taking the C ranked mission he could not believe that someone with no talent was able to achieve Qi Condensation Realm even faster than he could with his cheat.
.
"C-rank, Why?"
Li Rong narrowed her eyes, seeing the look of disbelief on his face. She thought that Yuan Ming was feeling down because of the power the boy held at such a young age.
"How Is that possible?"
He could not help but mutter. Li Rong felt that something was wrong but she could not pinpoint what was wrong.
"Are you alright? You don't need to feel down… you are 15 years old and it has only been a few months since you started your journey as a cultivator.
Before long you might catch up to him, if not surpass him."
Li Rong tried to console him as she truly believed that Noah was way older than he looked and he used some medicine to raise his cultivation. As for his aura it might be because he had some kind of treasure on him.
'How can he compare to hardworking people that come from no background like me and Yuan Ming.'
She scoffed inside her mind but what she did not realize was that her words could not be more far from the truth.
Yuan Ming who knew the truth could not help but feel those words of the woman piercing his heart like a knife stabbing him.
"Well sister Rong, can you help me with these? Check if they are requested for some mission." trying to change the topic, Yuan Ming sighed and placed the bag on the counter.
All of his loot was placed inside of this bag. Looking at the bag Li Rong could not but feel slight disgust. The makeshift bag was riddled with dirt and stains of blood, being a clean person she hated this kind of mess in front of her.
"Next time get some better clothes and a storage bag." Hearing her cold words, Yuan Ming could only scratch the back of his head in embarrassment.
He truly needs some new clothes but he was in a hurry to get money first.
Shaking her head, Li Rong used her qi to open the bag not wanting to touch it. She was surprised to see the materials from several Qi gathering beasts.
"How is this possible? How did you manage to kill a peak Qi gathering Inferno Bison?"
Seeing the strongest material in the bag, Li Rong could not help but exclaim In Shock. Although killing a bison at that level was not a big deal, with a cultivation like Yuan Ming's, how can it be possible?
"It happened like this Sister Rong, when I was rushing through the forbidden forest…."
Having an excuse prepared for her question, Yuan Ming started explaining to her how he came across two beasts fighting each other.
Then he proceeded telling her how one of the beasts ran away to save its life and how he took the chance to finish the injured bison.
Since the bison was barely hanging to its life while there were several wounds on its body, he killed it. He explained the whole 'story' in detail while highlighting himself as a brave mercenary trying to impress the girl in front of him.
