Chapter 18: Money Speaks-9
” Well then, thanks for the time… I will leave on my way as I have some work, ”

Saying that, Bai Lung walked away while maintaining a calm demeanor, keeping his face straight.

For now, he can be lazy as all he has to do is wait and let the whispers go wild.

Ling Fei,

An average looking man with a tall figure, sharp eyes, and a masculine yet lean body donned in a white robe was still sleeping, snoring loudly when suddenly out of nowhere, he woke up instantly feeling something bad was happening.

His senses were tingling while a ‘ Tingggg! ‘ noise rang at the back of his head.

Suddenly a golden aura was released calming his mind followed by a husky thick voice,

” Hmm… Something strange is going on, suddenly you lost some of your fortune, ” A voice hits Ling Fei.

The voice came from the ring.

Suddenly a small figure appeared out of the ring, it was an old man with a long beard, in his soul form.

” W-What? My fortune was lost? ” Ling Fei was instantly taken aback while he could hardly believe the words coming out of the old man.

“Indeed, you just lost some of your luck… Not just that, a strange black aura is surrounding you, it seems you have attracted lots of hate and negativity from others, ” The old man looked at Ling Fei from up to down while trying to check what was going on.

” Lots of hate and negativity? That makes no sense… How can such a thing happen? ” Ling Fei was flabbergasted unable to fathom why would he suddenly attract hate and negativity out of nowhere.

After killing that trashy arrogant young master, he was sleeping peacefully, and now this…

…

The old man gracefully stroked his long, very long, longer than 10 inch beard thoughtfully and nodded while his spiritual soul form glowed faintly in the dim light of Ling Fei’s room.

” Yes, the junior is being targeted by someone. This aura is peculiar… I can sense it, It’s almost as if someone is deliberately spreading ill will against you,” the old man mused stopping his stroking on his long thing.

” The only way to save yourself is: you need to find the source of this negativity and counter it before it grows any further, ” The old man added.

Ling Fei, who was still groggy from sleep became fully alert, nodding resolutely. “But how do we find the source? And what can I do to stop it, ”

The old man’s eyes glinted with conclusion,

” We must be vigilant… Your intuition will guide you, trust in your instincts, and be wary of those around you. For now, go about your daily routine and observe any unusual behavior among your peers,”

Hearing this, Bai Lung clenched his fist, while his black eyes gleamed with uncertainty and confusion followed by anger not knowing who was that grand one who was courting death.

He didn’t doubt the words coming out of the old man, the old man was a soul remnant of a powerful immortal who somehow failed a lightning tribulation and was sent here.

Thanks to the old man, Ling Fei had made some heaven-defying progress in cultivation these few days, at the same time, he had some powerful martial arts compared to his peers which allowed him to win even against superior cultivators.

—

With a sense of urgency,

Ling Fei quickly headed out of his quarters.

The sect was already bustling with activity as disciples went about their morning routines,

As he walked through the courtyard, he noticed a few disciples whispering and casting furtive glances in his direction, which made him feel a little uneasy.

” Did you hear? Ling Fei supposedly thinks he’s better than the inner disciples, just who does he think he is?” one disciple muttered to another

Their disdain was clear.

” Oh! Just that? I think I have seen him get intimate with a man, I heard he likes to worship devils… I even heard, right now he is making a good progression in cultivation because he is using the devilish techniques, ”

” Now I wonder about it, it sounds logical otherwise how can a person who was low among average outer disciples, suddenly start winning against inner disciples? ”

” I see so, that’s how it is… This one has obtained new wisdom, it turns out Ling Fei is practicing the Devil’s art, we need to execute him, how can we allow a devil practitioner to live among us, ”

As Bai Lung had expected multiple lies about Ling Fei were spread throughout the sect, it seems few even connected his rapid progression to devilish arts, which is a taboo method, punishable by execution.

…

Ling Fei felt a pang of frustration and confusion.

These whispers were new and seemed to be spreading like wildfire totally destroying his reputation and connecting him to the devil.

This makes no sense, he is completely innocent.

” It seems someone is knowingly trying to attack you, don’t get me wrong but, it seems you are dancing in the palm of this guy without even knowing it, while that person is still hidden, ” The old man spoke directly in his mind, while he slept inside space ring.

Hearing this,

Ling Fei’s brows frowned, he was dancing in someone else palm?

Just who is that guy, if Ling Fei met that person, he vowed to shred that person to pieces.

….

Ignoring other’s sharp and hateful gaze,

He approached his closest friend, Mei Lin, a talented, beautiful female disciple known for her straightforwardness and honesty.

In the entire sect, he only had two buddies.

Mei Lin, the outer disciple whose beauty is like a fairy, and Fatty wang, the inner disciple who comes from a rich family.

These are the only two people he can rely on.

…

” Mei Lin, have you noticed anything strange? People seem to be acting differently around me,” Ling Fei asked, trying to keep his voice calm and steady.

Mei Lin frowned with concern etching on her beautiful jade face,

” I have!!!… There are rumors circulating about you. Some say you have been boasting about being stronger than the inner disciples and even claiming the sect master fears you, some even said you are interested in men, but, of course, I didn’t believe them, however, others seem convinced,”

Ling Fei’s eyes widened in shock. “Boasting? That’s absurd! I have never said any of such thing,”
