Cultivation Pet Shop

Even though they had gone into the center zone of the Kunlun Mountains, it didn't actually take Lin Fan's group that long to head back to Harmony City since with their cultivations, they moved quite quickly.

When they came into the city, it was already noon and that was just to enter the city.

Since it was tiring traveling, Lin Fan hired one of the beast carriages that was waiting at the entrance of the city to take them to the Seekers Guild.

However, along the way, they decided to stop at one of the many shopping streets in Harmony City to have a meal.

While at their level of cultivation, there was no need for them to eat or drink since they could survive on life energy alone, eating and drinking was one of the few joys of being human. That was why even though there were plenty of cultivators in Harmony City, there were also plenty of restaurants that were found all over the city.

After having their meal, they got back into the beast carriage that Lin Fan had paid to wait for them outside.

If this was before, Lin Fan definitely wouldn't have had enough money to do this, but now he had plenty of spirit stones after selling the beast corpses to the Seekers Guild.

It was a leisurely ride for them since they were all somewhat tired after having a meal and it would take some time for them to reach the Seekers Guild.

That was the one problem with having a large city, it took quite a bit of time to reach different parts of it.

However, since that was the case, they could also take a quick nap before reaching the Seekers Guild.

While everything was silent as they were heading to the Seekers Guild, there was a sudden commotion that came from outside that drew their attention. It was so loud that the beast carriage had even slowed down since there were several beast carriages that had stopped in the road, so it had to slow down to go around them.

When Lin Fan peeked his head out, he saw that there was a crowd gathered, but that wasn't important. What was important was the people that were in the center of the crowd.

Right in the middle of the crowd, there was an old man who was shaking as he leaned on his cane and right in front of him were several strong men bearing down on him, shouting at him.

One of them shouted, "Old man, you really think you can get away from us?"

Another one of them shouted, "After all your son owes us, you really think you can get away now?"

When Lin Fan heard these voices, he couldn't help knitting his brows as he revealed a frown.

This was really like the most cliched scenario that was found in almost all the s, but for some reason, Lin Fan couldn't help being moved by it. Seeing the fragile old man standing there while being bullied by those strong men, it ignited a sense of justice in him.

Maybe that was why it was found in all those s, it was actually quite the effective tool.

Even Angela and Momonga couldn't help turning to look at the frail old man standing there surrounded by those thugs.

So this time, they didn't say anything when they saw Lin Fan was about to make a move.

Finally, Lin Fan called out to the driver and had the beast carriage stop on the side of the road before getting out.

Lin Fan calmly walked over to the crowd and without any impediment, he walked right through the crowd until he was right beside the scene.

Most people in the crowd only had normal cultivations in the Silver and Gold Realm, so they didn't dare interfere when they could tell that these men were all in the Platinum Realm.

But it was also because of that that they didn't notice Lin Fan's life energy gently nudging them to the side to create a path for him.

Lin Fan calmly walked over and stood in front of the old man before asking, "Is there a problem here?"

The strong men standing around the old man were surprised to see Lin Fan suddenly appear, but they were also vigilant since they couldn't see through Lin Fan's cultivation. In scenarios like this, it usually meant that this person was someone with a cultivation that was higher than theirs or it meant that this person didn't have any cultivation at all.

But with the way Lin Fan carried himself, it was more likely the former than the latter.

If that was the case, that would mean they would have to be careful since Lin Fan was just too young. Having this kind of cultivation clearly meant that he had some kind of backing behind him or he might be an old monster in disguise.

Either way, this was someone that they didn't want to mess with if they didn't have to mess with him.

Still, that didn't mean that they panicked since they were justified in what they were doing. After all, this old man did owe them a debt, or at least the old man's son did.

One of the strong men came forward and said, "This little friend, this is something that doesn't concern you."

Lin Fan slightly knitted his brows when he heard this, but he didn't act impulsively as he said, "You're a bunch of strong men who are surrounding a frail old man, I don't think you have the right to say that."

That man who spoke also knitted his brows, but he wasn't as calm as Lin Fan. He was someone who ruled the underground, why had anyone ever dared to talk to him like this?

So that man took out a piece of paper from his chest and put it in front of him, holding it out for Lin Fan to see as he said, "Do you see this? This is a contract that this old man's son signed himself, so we have all the justification that we need to do this. As long as he doesn't pay, we can do whatever we want, so what will you do about it?"

That man also didn't forget to say to the old man, "Old man, because of this hero, we'll take your granddaughter as well and give her a good place to work. Remember, it's all because of this hero."

Lin Fan coldly looked at this man, but he still didn't act impulsively. Instead, Lin Fan said in a cold voice, "How much?"

That man and the other men around him were all snickering over what that man had said, but that suddenly stopped when they heard Lin Fan's words. They all looked at Lin Fan with looks of surprise before that man asked, "How much for what?"

Lin Fan said in the same cold voice, "To pay off this old man's debt."

"Ha, ha, ha, ha!" All the men burst into laughter when they heard this as if this was the funniest joke they had ever heard.

Then that man said, "You want to pay off this old man's debt? Why would you do that?"

Lin Fan just said, "Just tell me how much."

That man paused for a second before raising one hand, "Fifty spirit stones."

These men couldn't understand why Lin Fan would butt into the business of someone who wasn't related, but their job was to get the money, so if they could, why would they care where it came from?

Lin Fan was surprised to hear that it was only fifty spirit stones since this seemed a bit too cheap for him, but after thinking about it, he found that it seemed right.

This amount was only low to him because he was someone who possessed a lot of spirit stones, but for an ordinary old man like this, it was definitely a large amount. That was because spirit stones were a currency for cultivators just like crystals back on the Blue Star Planet. On earth, it would be the equivalent of hundred dollar bills.

Lin Fan had gotten too used to being with cultivators that he forgot about what it was like for normal people.

In the end, he had to blame the system for this since the system only took crystals as payment…

Still, this wasn't a problem for him since it was actually quite cheap.

Lin Fan flicked his hand and there were fifty spirit stones that were pulled out of his Storage Ring, being thrown onto the ground in front of these men.

After doing that, he turned to help the old man who had been knocked down by these people and said, "Grandpa, are you alright?

But before the old man could answer, the man from before came back from his daze and shouted, "Do you really think that's enough?"

Lin Fan turned back to look at them with a cold look and asked, "Isn't it fifty spirit stones?"

That man just said with a laugh, "But what about the interest?"

Perhaps he might have let them go if Lin Fan hadn't provoked him earlier, but now he wasn't willing to let it go that easily.

The only reason he was this confident was because they were in Harmony City. If this was any other place, this man wouldn't be confident in provoking someone with Lin Fan's power and possible backing.

Harmony City was established by the twelve great factions, so they cared very much about public order because it was equal to the face of the twelve great factions. So they invested heavily in law enforcement to ensure that Harmony City was clean on the surface even though there were plenty of back room dealings.

If Lin Fan was to make a move, this group of men would be considered the victims and Harmony City's public security force wouldn't take this standing down.

So the man had no problem provoking Lin Fan since he wanted Lin Fan to attack him.

Lin Fan could only blame himself for provoking him when he had nothing to provoke him with.

Lin Fan could naturally see through what was going on, so he revealed a cold and evil smile.

The moment he did, it was like a flower that bloomed as all the girls around suddenly felt their hearts skip a beat. There were even some girls that fainted on the spot. There were even some men who had their hearts skip a beat…

Lin Fan just gave a cold laugh before suddenly releasing his killing intent to smother these men.

The moment they felt this killing intent come over them, they were immediately flattened to the ground.
