Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 1212 - 535: You Sold the Caravan? (Part 2)

During this period, he was slowly operating his Cultivation Technique to regulate his breath.

Allowing the Immortal Demon Power and physical strength consumed in the past days to begin recovering.

Time flew by, after traveling for a while, it was already mid-morning.

"When will we arrive? This speed is too slow!"

The young girl, feeling the speed of the carriage, was already somewhat drowsy.

"Junior Sister, hang in there."

"We’ll be safe once we reach the city."

"And we can use the teleportation."

The two senior brothers kept comforting the young girl.

"Alright, it can only be so!"

The young girl sighed, glanced at Ning Qi who was resting with his eyes closed.

Then mimicked him, leaning to one side and closing her eyes to rest.

The carriage continued to jostle along.

After a while, the scorching sun was gradually unnoticeable.

This made Ning Qi feel curious.

He lifted the curtain and looked outside.

Only to find they had arrived at a dense forest.

The difference was that there was an official road allowing passage.

Clearly, this was a necessary route.

"Everyone rest for half a two-hour here!"

At this moment, someone shouted from afar.

"Oh finally, we can rest."

"It’s nice here, we can cool off."

"And have some dry food!"

"..."

Immediately after, discussions could be heard from the carriages behind.

Ning Qi could sense that many had already disembarked.

He also got off the carriage.

Only then did he get a chance to observe the surroundings.

It was an ancient forest.

Everywhere were ancient trees and some giant stones.

This official road led off into the distance.

"Master, this place is really nice."

The Medicine Spirit stood on his shoulder, looking outward.

The place had beautiful mountains and rivers, singing birds and fragrant flowers, Immortal Qi lingered in the air.

Walking on the road here made one feel refreshed.

"This place is indeed nice, let’s find a spot to sit for a while!"

"Sitting in the carriage made my body stiffen."

Ning Qi nodded and stretched.

Then he headed towards a Bluestone Slab with the Medicine Spirit.

Once there, Ning Qi sat down directly.

"Master, look, isn’t that the girl’s convoy?"

The Medicine Spirit suddenly pointed at the convoy behind them.

Ning Qi opened his eyes and looked back.

Only to see the former Commander leading the team over.

"Yes."

He nodded, smiling: "Isn’t it a small world, meeting here."

"Haha, Master, maybe it’s fate?"

The Medicine Spirit laughed, saying: "However, we still have a connection with Miss Xu."

"Alright, we can ignore them."

Ning Qi simply lay down, beginning to enjoy this rare beautiful moment.

"We’ll rest here for a while, everyone disembark."

"Do what needs doing!"

After a while, the Commander’s voice came again.

Soon, noises arose.

People were gradually getting off the carriage.

"Isn’t that our coachman, why is he here?"

Some Guards noticed Ning Qi.

"Yeah, why aren’t you driving the carriage, but came here?"

"Miss is looking for you."

"..."

Several Guards approached, speaking.

"I’m merely hitching a ride, not sold to you."

Ning Qi looked at them and said: "If you want to find a coachman, there are plenty in town."

"Hey, how can you speak like that!"

Princess Xiangxiang’s voice quickly came from afar.

Apparently, she also heard about Ning Qi being found.

She came directly.

Seeing Ning Qi, a happy look appeared on her face.

Like when something lost is found.

"How I speak, what’s it to you?"

Ning Qi smirked: "I’m no longer a coachman."

"Boy, speak politely!"

"How can you speak like that to our Miss?"

"..."

Several Guards were displeased, reprimanding him.

"You’d best get lost and not provoke me!"

Ning Qi was initially in a good mood, ready to rest here.

Yet, disrupted by a few people, he was instantly displeased.

"I want you as my coachman."

Princess Xiangxiang looked at Ning Qi, then towards the convoy ahead: "You must be here working, I’ll buy you from them!"

"Let’s see how you escape my grasp."

"Go ahead, I’ll wait."

Ning Qi sneered, then lay down again.

"Hmph!"

Princess Xiangxiang snorted and ordered: "You all, go inquire."

"They bought the person for how much, I’ll pay ten times to buy!"

"Yes!"

"..."

Several Guards respectfully accepted the order, then went to the middle-aged man from the convoy.

They chatted for a bit, then dejectedly returned.

"How did it go? Settled?"

Princess Xiangxiang asked happily, seeing them return.

"Miss, this guy isn’t a worker; he bought the convoy with Spirit Stones."

"Yes, and the Shopkeeper couldn’t do anything."

"..."

The Guards helplessly explained.

"How about now?"

Ning Qi laughed and said: "Go your way, we’re not on the same path, you take your highway, I’ll cross my single-log bridge."

"Our paths won’t cross, don’t disturb my rest again."

"You!"

"I’ll remember you, when I return, I’ll make you regret!"

Princess Xiangxiang helplessly muttered threats, then left angrily.

Several Guardians followed her away.

"Boy, if you’ve offended someone, don’t sit with us."

The two young men from earlier noticed Ning Qi’s situation.

Seeing Princess Xiangxiang depart, they spoke unhappily.

"Whether I offend someone or not, what’s it to you?"

Ning Qi glimpsed at them disdainfully: "Just take care of yourselves, best not meddle."

"Hey, how can you speak like that?"

The young girl, hearing Ning Qi, was displeased.

Since Ning Qi boarded the carriage, she was already unhappy.

Now she found a chance to pick a quarrel.

"I couldn’t be bothered with you."

Ning Qi then closed his eyes, continuing to rest.

No matter what they said, he ignored them.

Thus, the two convoys rested here together.

Gradually, the Commander of Princess Xiangxiang began chatting happily with the Shopkeeper here.

Ning Qi didn’t care, simply resting quietly.

After a while, the middle-aged man approached.

"Hey young man."

He looked at Ning Qi, speaking quietly.

"Shopkeeper, what can I do for you?"

Ning Qi sat up and asked the middle-aged man.

"Well, our convoy on this upcoming route has been bought by this gentleman."

"Before reaching the city, we’re all their subordinates now."

The middle-aged man looked at Ning Qi and continued: "So I’ll return your Spirit Stones first."

"If you want to continue with us, discuss it with this gentleman."

"The specifics of Spirit Stones are your own concern."

"What?"

Hearing him, Ning Qi frowned.

He now realized what had happened.

Turns out they bought this convoy entirely.

Specifically, they bought the upcoming journey completely.

Meaning his Spirit Stones were spent in vain.

"Ah, you sold the convoy, what should we do?"

"Indeed, this is too irresponsible!"

The few senior and junior brothers, hearing this, also complained.

"Rest assured, you can still hitch a ride."

The middle-aged man gestured them to calm down.

"That’s more like it."

"..."

Only then did they relax and let it go.

"Well, what about you?"

The middle-aged man, seeing they stopped arguing, refocused on Ning Qi.
