Battle Through the Heavens: There Are Always Rebellious Disciples Who Want to Deceive Their Master

"Are you fucking with me?"

The Stall Owner flew into a rage, his eyes bulging as large as fists.

His voice rose from low to high before he directly roared, his face reddening, veins standing out on his neck, and his clenched fists crackling.

Right now, the Stall Owner desperately wanted to hit someone—wanted to give the little girl in front of him a thorough beating.

Was she making a joke out of him?

Had she been toying with him all along?

One gold coin?

What kind of joke was this?

He had rambled on for so long and wasted so much breath, only for the item to be sold for one gold coin?

She had offered one hundred gold coins earlier, so what happened?

How had it become one gold coin?

Was she deliberately screwing with him?

Had he been too polite just now, so she no longer took him seriously?

"I'm telling you, one hundred gold coins—not a single one less! Otherwise, whether you can safely walk out of this Market later is another matter entirely!"

Staring at the little girl before him, the Stall Owner wore a vicious expression and spoke in an especially nasty tone.

For a moment, the little girl was genuinely startled.

But she quickly calmed down again!

Su Mu's gaze sharpened.

He did not know whether the man before him would suddenly make a move, but as long as there was even the slightest possibility, he had to be prepared.

If the Stall Owner dared to recklessly make a move, Su Mu would not mind using the puppet and wiping him out completely!

After all, in the Novice Village, aside from two special people, his strength was invincible. Su Mu was not afraid in the slightest!

"You there, what do you think you're doing?"

Just as the Stall Owner rose to his feet, a furious shout rang out.

All three of them turned to look.

The Market's Guard Team was charging over menacingly under Captain Payne's lead.

Payne wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

After learning that the young lady had entered the Market, he had immediately sent two people to follow her.

One of them saw that their young lady had stayed at this stall for so long and guessed that something might happen, so he called Payne over.

Now, it seemed there really was a problem!!

Payne hurried behind Xiao Yue. With a wave of his hand, the guards under him rushed forward and surrounded the Stall Owner.

For a moment, the atmosphere became tense.

"Young Lady, are you all right?"

After arriving behind Xiao Yue, Payne hurriedly checked on her.

If anything truly happened to the young lady on his turf, he could not bear that responsibility!

Xiao Yue casually waved her hand, indicating that she was fine.

"You old bastard, you were glaring at our young lady so viciously just now. What exactly were you planning?

What, you dare cause trouble in the Xiao Family's Market? Are you taking us for pushovers?"

Payne showed no courtesy whatsoever toward the Stall Owner.

Daring to bully the young lady—had he lived too long?

"You must be joking, sir. How would I dare offend Miss Xiao?"

The Stall Owner smiled on the outside while cursing up a storm inside.

She should have revealed her identity earlier. Then there would not have been so much trouble.

She went out without even a single person following her. Who the hell would know who she was?

"If I had known you were Miss Xiao, how could I have dared haggle with you? I definitely would have given you my goods for free. Miss, just take whichever one you like!"

The Stall Owner hurriedly took out the Broken Sword in his hand and respectfully placed it before Xiao Yue.

"Young Lady, is that how it was?"

Payne turned his gaze toward Xiao Yue.

What the Stall Owner said did not mean shit. In the end, he would listen to his young lady!

"Here are ten gold coins. Consider this Broken Sword bought from you. However, you should not remain in our Market any longer!"

Xiao Yue reached out and accepted the Broken Sword, but she did not choose to forgive him.

He had provoked her, so why should she let him off so easily?

Keeping someone like this in their Market would damage its image. It was better to drive him away!

"Did you hear what our young lady said? Hurry up and pack your things, then get the hell out of here!"

As he spoke, he ordered two guards to watch the man and make him quickly pack up and leave.

The Figure Behind Her

"Girl, your expression just now was pretty good!"

Su Mu was quite satisfied with his Little Disciple's series of actions.

She had neither simply taken advantage of others nor easily let off her enemy. That was quite good!

Her performance while bargaining had been good too!

Although her later behavior had been somewhat shameless, how could one use proper methods against certain people?

Everything had been just right!

"Right? I think I'm pretty impressive too!"

Xiao Yue looked smug.

She also felt that her performance just now had been excellent!

She was a rare little genius!

"I'm a little curious. If the Guard Team hadn't come in the end, what would you have done?"

Su Mu suddenly wanted to know what she would have chosen to do if no one had helped her and she faced the Stall Owner's difficulties.

Was it because she knew her master was nearby that she had been so at ease?!

"No one came?"

"How could no one come?"

"Whenever I enter the Market, two guards usually follow behind me. How could they let anything happen to me?"

"Didn't Master notice the two of them?"

Xiao Yue was not worried about her safety at all.

Could something really happen in her own family's Market?

Was that so?

Su Mu truly had not paid attention to his surroundings earlier.

No wonder the little girl had seemed so calm!

He had thought she was simply born brave!

"What a joke, how could I possibly have failed to notice? I was just afraid you didn't know, that's all.

Now that we have the item, what are you planning to do next?"

Su Mu quickly chose to change the subject.

If the little girl found out that he had not even noticed the people following behind her, that would be rather embarrassing!

"We've walked around enough. Let's head back!"

Although the result of her shopping had been quite good, the process had not been as perfect as she imagined. That was enough for Xiao Yue; she did not want to keep browsing.

Hunting for treasures at street stalls was truly difficult for her.

When haggling, sometimes she could not bring herself to push too hard, while other times she felt she might be getting cheated. The feeling was rather unpleasant!

Besides, she only wanted to go home now and properly examine the treasure she had just found, to see why it had attracted her so strongly.

Could she gain anything from it?

The little girl was preparing to leave, and Su Mu readily agreed.

He had already achieved his own goal.

He had seen what he wanted to see, and it was not much different from how he had imagined it would be. Perhaps only the items being sold were somewhat different.

In the end, it was still the same!

After taking this trip around, he had earned some Admiration Value while spending some to buy a broken sword.

If the broken sword had no value, then it would mean he had gained nothing at all!

He wondered whether the system's items were actually reliable.

Or perhaps whether the Stall Owner's goods could be even a little reliable?

Su Mu could not help feeling somewhat aggrieved.

His disciple only contributed a few points of Admiration Value each day. What would he do in the future?

If he truly wanted to exchange for his true body, would that not take thousands upon thousands of years?
