Ruthless Seeker

"This old man is not simple." It was also the first time for Gu Zhuo to face such a strong opponent.

"And his status is definitely not low. He clearly said that only ascetics can have this token, but he just threw it over casually."

"Forget it, he will probably send someone to investigate me, so we can only take it one step at a time."

Gu Zhuo then took the token and entered the best clothing store of the Yu family in Xiaobian City.

The waiter was a young girl, who was very polite to Gu Zhuo.

"Sir, are you here to buy clothes?"

"Yes, and then customize some clothes."

"Sir, please come here. The clothes here are relatively affordable and durable."

The service staff noticed that Gu Zhuo was dressed simply and went to look at some cloth clothes for him.

"No, I want the best."

Gu Zhuo showed the token given by Director Yu.

When the service staff saw the token, their expressions changed and they were immediately at a loss.

"Master cultivator, the young one...has no eyesight..."

The little girl knelt down directly in front of Gu Zhuo.

"Why do you feel that practitioners are the same as bullies?" Gu Zhuo thought helplessly in his heart.

The steward heard the noise and thought someone was causing trouble, so he quickly came over to see what was going on.

He saw the little girl kneeling on the ground, and then he saw the token in Gu Zhuo's hand, and his pupils instantly dilated.

"You blind thing, why did you bring the cultivator here?"

As he spoke, the supervisor raised his hand to slap his face. , but was blocked by Gu Zhuo.

"Master practitioner, this guy is new here and is ignorant. Don't argue with her."

"It's okay. Take me to find some clothes and customize some clothes by the way."

"Okay, I'll take the adults to see it."

…

"This silk dress suits the temperament of an adult. If you put it on, you will look like an immortal in the sky."

"This one's not bad either."

The supervisor praised Gu Zhuo, packed a bunch of clothes for Gu Zhuo, and then measured Gu Zhuo's measurements.

"That's it." Gu Zhuo said, looking at the large and small bags and piles of clothes.

"Okay, sir, please wear these first and give me an address. When the customized clothes are ready, I will send them to you."

The supervisor said cautiously.

"No, I'll pick it up myself in a few days."

"That's okay, sir, please walk slowly."

Gu Zhuo took the clothes and left the shop.

The supervisor exhaled and returned to the store.

He saw the little girl still kneeling on the ground shivering.

The supervisor helped the little girl up and said helplessly: "I'm sorry, don't blame me, we are all ordinary people. If the practitioner is angry, we will all be destroyed."

Several shop assistants around quickly helped the little girl to rest.

The little girl sat in a chair and gasped. She initially thought she was going to die.

She once saw a practitioner eating with her own eyes. Just because the waiter was too slow to serve the food, he cut off his head and hung it at the door of the hotel.

The other store clerks were surprised to see the amiable supervisor hitting someone, but now it seems that the supervisor just has no choice but to do so.

The supervisor regained the respect of all store employees.

"This is the first time I've seen a practitioner dressed like this."

"Hey, there's nothing we can know about big shots."

"Don't even discuss it. Practitioners have incredible magical powers. Maybe he can hear me when I discuss him now?"

…

Buying clothes this time really gave Gu Zhuo a better understanding of the status of a practitioner.

"Why do I feel like other practitioners don't take ordinary people for granted?"

Gu Zhuo did nothing else and returned to the inn.

Because there were too many people and things around him, and Gu Zhuo was afraid of being exposed, he hadn't practiced much for a week.

The spiritual energy in Xiaobian City is far richer than that in the village, and the cultivation of strength is also twice the result with half the effort. He now estimates that he can practice a trace of Dao Seal in more than a month.

…

Two days later, Gu Zhuo actually meditated on the bed. The spiritual energy around him quickly swirled like a tide and was absorbed by Gu Zhuo. The eighth strength mark on Gu Zhuo's body was looming.

"It seems that the eighth strength seal is about to be completed." Gu Zhuo slowly opened his eyes.

Get up and put on the luxurious robe selected by the supervisor that day.

The weather was fine, and Gu Zhuo entered the gate of the martial arts gym again.

"You must first pay 20 taels of silver to join the martial arts gym."

It's that middle-aged man again.

When the middle-aged man noticed that there was no answer for a long time, he raised his head and said impatiently: "If you don't have money, don't come to join in the fun."

Then the next moment he looked at Gu Zhuo.

The world fell silent.

"The person who challenged the martial arts gym yesterday is here again...well..."

The middle-aged man wanted to scream as if he had seen an evil spirit, but Gu Zhuo covered his mouth.

"Stop yelling. I just have an appointment with Director Yu. Where is Director Yu?"

“Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo of of of of vi that kind of thing.

Gu Zhuo also noticed something was wrong. This man seemed to be out of breath, so he let go of his hand.

The middle-aged man sat directly on the ground and took a deep breath, coughing from time to time.

"If you don't shout no, you won't have to suffer like this."

Gu Zhuo said helplessly.

"The curator hasn't... gone out, he's still... uh... on the second floor."

After hearing this, Gu Zhuo walked straight to the second floor.

"You're here, come and sit down."

As soon as Gu Zhuo reached the second floor, he heard Director Yu's voice.

Turning around, Director Yu was sitting on a chair reading a book.

"Boy, no, I should call you Gu Zhuo. Just wait for me and I'll finish reading this book right away."

After saying that, he sat there and read a book as if nothing had happened.

Gu Zhuo found a stool and sat on it.

"As expected, he investigated me. This is also a warning."

After waiting for an hour, Director Yu slowly closed the book. Put the book back in its place.

"Let's go."

The Yu family branch in Xiaobian City is the headquarters of Xiaobian City.

The servant and housekeeper at the door have been waiting for you for a long time.

Seeing Director Yu coming, the housekeeper hurriedly came to greet him.

"Hello, Mr. Yu, Mr. Gu." The butler quickly saluted Director Yu.

"No need to be polite, let's get down to business."

"yes."

Then the butler went to the living room with his thoughts.

There were only two people in the living room, and a middle-aged man sitting in the main seat was probably the famous Yu Xuanfeng, the head of the Yu family branch and the lord of Xiaobian City.

The other person sitting next to him is a young man.

Seeing Director Yu coming, everyone immediately stood up to greet him.

"Don't worry about me. As an old man, I won't participate in the exchanges between you young people. I'm just here to lead the way."

After speaking, Director Yu patted Gu Zhuo's shoulder and turned to leave.

Seeing Director Yu leave, everyone was helpless.

"You are Gu Zhuo, come on, sit down."

Gu Zhuo was not polite and sat down directly on the side.

The three people exchanged pleasantries first, and then got down to business.

"Fellow Daoist Gu is a casual cultivator?"

asked the young monk.

"I was originally a villager in a small village. By chance, I found a way to practice Buddhism, so I became a casual practitioner."

"I wonder what kind of Tao you Daoist Gu is cultivating."

"It's about strength."

"Hahahaha, okay, my Yu family has never had a strength cultivator. Fellow Daoist Gu may be able to fill this gap."

…

Throughout the whole process, the Yu family did not ask for any cultivation methods, nor did they formulate overlord regulations, appearing peaceful and harmonious.
