Not A Cultivator 144 Fork Over All Your Cash!

"Senior, you're sweating a lot. And, you're acting weird..."

Barraged by questions by the junior members of the Silver Hands Owl, Qian Hui could not just keep quiet. He has to say something or his true ident.i.ty would be exposed.

"I'm here to introduce you to someone..." he said while pretending to be calm, he glanced at Feng Ao Xiu.

Qian Hui skilfully dodged the questions and s.h.i.+fted the attention to the Second Young Master. Meanwhile, that person now was surprised by the turns of event.

There's a lot that Feng Ao Xiu doesn't know about, like why they call Qian Hui "Senior Yu Liang", or what is the "mission"? But, he knows one thing, if it's about Qian Hui, it can't be a good thing. And, he could tell just by Qian Hui's expression that this was a troublesome matter, which only makes it worse.

[Qian Hui!!! Don't just throw you sh*t on me!!] Feng Ao Xiu cursed loudly in his heart, while his outer appearance throws an innocent smile.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Feng... I'm Fei Bao Xing."

In a spur of the moment, Feng Ao Xiu uses a fake name. With these people calling Qian Hui as Yu Liang, how could he not jump into the same bandwagon?

"...That's a lie?" said the one of the young man.

"Yep. That's a lie!" confirmed the other one, "Fei Bao Xing is a fake name."

"Hey, why are you lying? Tell us your real name."

[How did they know!?] Feng Ao Xiu was shocked at these people caught on to his lie.

But, what he did not know was these people were from the Silver Hands Owl. As junior as they were, they were trained to read lies. Someone untrained like Feng Ao Xiu who made up lie on the spot was easy to be distinguished.

"You guys probably should not inquire so much. There's a reason for everything." Qian Hui gritted his teeth and saved Feng Ao Xiu from the predicament.

The two guys nodded. If the Senior Yu Liang that they respected said so, naturally they would comply.

"So, what does he want? But, he looks like a beggar... and I can see that he doesn't carry any money around him... So, he's not a new client..."

"Don't tell me... this guy will be our new recruit?"

Feng Ao Xiu and Qian Hui, "Ehhh..."

"Hey, I don't care if you use a fake name. But, at least tell us your age and cultivation level if you want to join the Silver Hands Owl."

[Si... Silver Hands Owl!!! They're from the number one infamous underground sect in Xiang Lan Nation! And, wait I'm about to join them...] Feng Ao Xiu was as nervous as h.e.l.l. But, he did not see a way out other than to follow along. "I'm 18 years old..."

"And, your cultivation level?"

Feng Ao Xiu, "..."

"Why are you so silent? C'mon, tell me your level."

Qian Hui impatiently glanced at his master. He knows better than anyone that Feng Ao Xiu doesn't stand a chance if he lies to the Silver Hands Owl. Thus, Qian Hui answered it for him, "He's not a cultivator!"

"Huh! Not a cultivator!!"

"Senior, you're telling me that this guy got a broken meridian. Yet, you're still recommending him?"

"But... Not a cultivator is just too... Senior, are you sure?"

As he thought this was the only way to end this faster. Qian Hui did not answer, but he nodded.

The two from Silver Hands Owl, "..."

It took a whole minute of silence before one of them processed his thought and said, "I got it. I just have to bring him to our base and start the recruitment process, right?"

Qian Hui also became silence for a few seconds, before he said. "...Yes, please."

"I see... Senior must value him highly. You're even willing to take a break on a mission just to introduce him."

"Senior, don't worry and leave him to us. You're still in the Feng Clan's guard uniform, it would be bad if someone sees you. We'll take care of the rest!"

Qian Hui quickly nodded, then he ran away from the scene.

[F*ck! Qian Hui, don't leave me...] Feng Ao Xiu cursed loudly in his heart. How could he not? His bodyguard just left him to die in the hands of Silver Hands Owl.

"So, your fake name is Fei Bao Xing, right?", one of the guys said.

Feng Ao Xiu quickly replied with a smile and nodded.

"Look, Fei Bao Xing, if you're willing to join us, it means you have to give everything you have to the Silver Hands Owl."

"That's right! You can't use them anymore anyway. Fork over all your cas.h.!.+"

[Ehhh!!!]

The two Silver Hands Owl members eyes twitched while they're staring at the money they received from Feng Ao Xiu.

"Two bronze taels... You really are a beggar. What can you buy with this garbage? It's not even enough to buy a sausage skewer!"

"Hmmm... Wait! is that a sausage skewer?" he said while pointing at Feng Ao Xiu's pocket. "What nice timing! It's about time for dinner. Give that to me!"

[No... My sausage skewer!]

Without any choice, Feng Ao Xiu was robbed of his food. He was about to go crazy since he's hungry right now.

"What! Yu Liang did? To someone with a broken meridian!"

The two juniors rely on their encounter with Senior Yu Liang to the Elder in charge of recruitment.

After asking for more details, the Elder dismissed them before scratching his head in confusion.

"And... You are... I mean, your fake name is Fei Bao Xing?" asked the Elder. "Why does Yu Liang even willing to recommend you?"

"..." The young man, who was known as Fei Bao Xing, just stood there without any words.

"Not willing to speak, huh. At least you got guts." said the Elder. "I don't know if your broken meridian will get in the way, but if Yu Liang recommends you, then I'm willing to give you a chance."

"I believe you already heard this from Yu Liang, but let me tell you again. Once you know our ident.i.ty, it's either join us or leave us. So, if you fail the recruitment process, you will be killed on the spot!"

[Ehhhh!! What!?]

"Now, go over to your dorm with the other recruits. Training starts tomorrow morning. Don't dare to be late!"

"Fei Bao Xing, your reply!?"

"...Yes", Fei Bao Xing cried as he replied. He knows it's only a matter of time until he's exposed and killed.
