I am really not a medical immortal.-Chapter 1506 - 1505: Porter (Second Update)

"Ah! You, you are the Lady?" the guard exclaimed in terror.

"Humph! Who else dares to impersonate me?" Zi Wuling snorted coldly.

Thud!

Upon hearing her words, this guard, along with the others, all knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe a single breath.

"Lady, I know my mistake! Please forgive me and don’t hold it against a subordinate!" The tall guard pleaded.

"Humph! Next time, keep your eyes wide open. If you disturb my holy presence again, you’ll be sorry!" Zi Wuling said coldly.

"Yes, Lady! I guarantee this won’t happen again." The tall guard assured hastily, thumping his chest.

"How many Spirit Stones have you collected today?" Zi Wuling asked.

"To answer the Lady’s question, from morning till now, we’ve collected about two hundred thousand pieces of low-grade Spirit Stones!" the tall guard explained.

"Give me all these Spirit Stones!" Zi Wuling ordered.

"But, but Lady, I’m afraid I can’t account for this to the City Lord!" The tall guard said bitterly.

"Humph! I’ll personally speak to my father, you just hand over the items to me! What, are you unwilling?" Zi Wuling coldly replied.

"I’m willing!" The tall guard quickly responded.

He wasn’t a fool; he naturally realized that Lady Wuling was very displeased with him at the moment. If he dared to speak further, perhaps in her anger, she’d casually cut him down, and dying in that way wouldn’t mean anything.

"Then why are you still dawdling? Hurry and bring the Spirit Stones to me!" Zi Wuling demanded.

"Yes, Lady!" The tall guard responded.

With a wave, two of his subordinates immediately handed over a storage bag.

The tall guard took the storage bag, not daring to delay even a bit, and respectfully handed it to Zi Wuling.

"Lady, the Spirit Stones are all inside. Please count them." The tall guard said respectfully.

"Humph! I doubt you’d dare deceive me!" Zi Wuling snorted coldly.

With a sweep of her Divine Thought, she checked the contents of the storage bag. After a moment, Zi Wuling withdrew her Divine Thought and nodded with satisfaction.

"Why are you still standing around? Get lost quickly!" Zi Wuling shouted coldly.

"Yes, Lady!" A group of guards responded respectfully.

One by one, they stood up from the ground, making way for Zi Wuling and Zhang Xiaohao to leave.

"Let’s go!" Zi Wuling said.

Immediately, she led Zhang Xiaohao towards Ming Han Snow City.

After a while, when Zi Wuling and Zhang Xiaohao’s figures were completely out of sight, the guards at the city gate finally breathed a sigh of relief, genuinely afraid that Zi Wuling might seize the opportunity to teach them a harsh lesson, in which case they’d have nowhere to even cry.

Once inside the city, Zi Wuling stopped at an isolated spot with Zhang Xiaohao.

"Brother Xu, here are nearly two hundred thousand pieces of low-grade Spirit Stones. This is a little token of mine; you must accept it!" Zi Wuling said.

"Hmm." Zhang Xiaohao nodded, unceremoniously taking the storage bag in his hand.

"Brother Xu, I’m leaving now! I presume the guards will report my return to my father, so if I don’t leave now, he might send someone to find me!" Zi Wuling said with a hint of reluctance. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"Be careful. If you run into trouble, come find me at the largest inn in the city." Zhang Xiaohao advised.

"Brother Xu, I will, and you should do the same!" Zi Wuling responded with concern.

"Hmm." Zhang Xiaohao nodded.

Swoosh!

Zi Wuling lifted her black cloak and, lightning-fast, pecked Zhang Xiaohao’s cheek, then mischievously pinched below and joyfully ran towards the City Lord Mansion, leaving behind a trail of silver bell-like laughter.

"This Zi Wuling!" Zhang Xiaohao muttered with a wry smile, touching his nose.

Shaking his head, Zhang Xiaohao retracted his gaze, and not thinking further about current matters, he focused on settling himself first before considering other things.

Immediately, Zhang Xiaohao stepped forward, left the narrow alley, and walked into the city.

A few minutes later, Zhang Xiaohao was walking along the bustling, lively street.

"Please wait a moment, elder!" Suddenly, a panting voice sounded from behind Zhang Xiaohao, a diminutive figure running towards him.

"Are you calling me?" Zhang Xiaohao asked, puzzled.

"Yes, elder, I’m calling you." A young man dressed like an attendant smiled foolishly.

"What do you want?" Zhang Xiaohao inquired.

"Elder, it’s like this—I’ve been observing you for a while. Perhaps it’s your first time in Ming Han Snow City?" the attendant said.

"Why do you ask?" Zhang Xiaohao’s face turned cold.

The attendant seemed to sense the coldness in Zhang Xiaohao’s voice and wasn’t disheartened but began explaining.

"Please don’t be angered, elder. Let me slowly explain my purpose!"

"Speak!" Zhang Xiaohao ordered.

"Elder, my name is Li Er. I’ve lived in Ming Han Snow City since birth, and although I’m not a cultivator, in terms of familiarity with the city, it’s no boasting to say very few know it better than me! Even for those underground auctions and other places that others can’t find, I’m very familiar!" Li Er bragged gleefully.

"Are you a hawker?" Zhang Xiaohao frowned.

"Hawker? Elder, what’s that? I don’t understand!" Li Er said, puzzled.

"Never mind! What do you do?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.

"Elder, I’m a porter, specializing in guiding people like you, who are visiting Ming Han Snow City for the first time and aren’t familiar with various places. As long as you’re willing to pay just a little fee." Li Er chuckled.

"How much?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.

"Two pieces of low-grade Spirit Stones per day!" Li Er replied.

"Two pieces of low-grade Spirit Stones?" Zhang Xiaohao frowned.

"Elder, this price isn’t expensive at all! Other porters in the city start at three to five pieces, and they’re not as familiar with the places as I am. If you go with others, it won’t be less than three pieces of low-grade Spirit Stones a day!" Li Er hastily explained.

"So why is your price so low?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.

"I haven’t had business for half a month now. If I don’t start earning soon, my family will starve! That’s why I’ve lowered the price." Li Er explained.

"Hmm! Let’s go! Show me to a place to stay." Zhang Xiaohao instructed.

"Ah! Yes, yes! Thank you, elder. I’ll take you to a place to stay now!" Li Er said excitedly, feeling like happiness had come quickly.
