Under the pressure brought by Li Xiaobai, Situ Guixiong took a short rest and then immediately began to climb the fifth layer.

“There’s no more oil to be squeezed out of this guy.”

Li Xiaobai’s eyes narrowed slightly as he murmured to himself, it was time to go to the top floor to get the Luminous Pearl.

This move was also kind of a small pitfall for Situ Guixiong, a way to vent his frustration.

Thinking this, Li Xiaobai slowly straightened his back, changing from his previous tired appearance, and with his hands behind his back, he casually stepped onto the staircase of the fifth layer.

The cultivators below were stunned. This hidden big shot had actually conned more than ten million top-quality Spirit Stones from Situ Guixiong’s hands. Wasn’t he afraid of retaliation?

Their hearts were pounding with apprehension at such a maneuver. First, he pretended to be utterly exhausted to lure Situ Guixiong in, then he took the opportunity to sell precious resources, and after repeating the tactic, he had earned ten million top-quality Spirit Stones in three separate instances. Most crucially, Situ Guixiong actually paid up.

Was the title of the number one young master in Aolai Country really that important?

Moreover, the scions of the Situ Household probably didn’t realize that the person at their side was not a mere ordinary genius, but a true hidden powerhouse. With this move, he’d been swindled out of everything, even down to his underwear.

This time, it was destined that Situ Nanxiong would take the fall.

“Come on, Brother Beichen, pinch me. I’m not dreaming, am I? Do we really have such a marketing genius in Aolai Country?”

Dongfang Mingyue said somewhat dazedly.

“Heh, it’s indeed beyond expectation. This person is strong in every aspect!”

Beichen Shixi was also speechless from surprise. Cultivators from Aolai Country were always by the book, and it was unexpected to see such an eccentric figure emerge.

This display of skill gave everyone goosebumps, and for quite a long time to come, Situ Guixiong would probably become the butt of everyone’s jokes.

“I think, this person’s unconstrained by conventional rules and not stifled by the many social norms of the world. He’s a true powerhouse!”

Nangong Wan murmured to herself as she looked ahead, lost in thought. The geniuses she knew were all deathly serious about saving face, considering reputation more important than anything. But the performance of this unfamiliar cultivator today had completely overturned her thoughts.

A real big shot only has the path of getting stronger in his heart, no matter what methods he uses, no matter how people around him view him, he doesn’t care. That’s the heart of someone truly brave enough to become stronger!

Seeing this, Beichen Shixi and Dongfang Mingyue exchanged glances and could only see the helplessness in each other’s eyes.

No doubt about it, their little sister Nangong had been completely charmed by this unfamiliar cultivator.

Below.

Long Xue stared blankly at Li Xiaobai above, unable to comprehend how this cultivator could do something so unexpectedly, truly astonishing.

Most importantly, his entire process was seamless, free of any constraints, as if he had done it countless times before.

Impressive, this cultivator must be an expert in this field!

“This person’s actions somewhat resemble Young Master Li, but the aura is completely different. Who is he, really?”

“Not good, he’s going to the top!”

Long Xue murmured to herself, and as she saw Li Xiaobai’s actions, her heart suddenly filled with alarm, unsure whether the other party was aware of the promise she once made. If he didn’t know, that would be fine, but if he came specifically for that, she had no way to refuse.

The fifth layer.

Situ Guixiong’s face was twisted to an extreme, watching that smiling fellow step by step passing by his side, he felt a murderous rage.

He wished he could immediately rush up and tear the other to shreds, but his body was under immense pressure, heavy as Mount Tai, leaving him unable to move.

“Boy, you dare to deceive me, who exactly are you? I’ve never heard of you in Aolai Country!”

Situ Guixiong roared angrily.

At this moment, he finally confirmed that he had been played!

And had been made a fool of from the very beginning, falling for the traps of someone who seemed so honest and simple. The fact that he could have secreted away the tea Long Xue offered in advance probably meant he’d planned early on to find a big sucker to fleece during the climb of the Linglong Pagoda.

The reason to target him was simple; who made him stand out so much?

Getting noticed was regrettable, but what really burned him up was being cheated out of millions of superior Spirit Stones. If it had been a fair deal, he wouldn’t have been so incensed, but to be deceived within the borders of Aolai Country was something he couldn’t tolerate!

“I’m just a passerby in Brother Situ’s life, no need for any lingering sentiments. Speaking of which, Brother Situ owes his rapid progress to this point to me.”

“Without me cheering Young Master Situ on all the way, I fear Young Master Situ might not have been able to come this far, let alone possess so many resources along the way. You really should thank me for all this!”

“However, between the two of us, these are things I ought to do, so there’s no need for gratitude.”

“Keep it up, Young Master Situ. I’ll be waiting for you higher up.”

Li Xiaobai chuckled, hands clasped behind his back, sauntering upward with ease, infuriating Situ Guixiong to the point of bursting.

“Boy, I don’t know who you are, but as long as you remain within Aolai Country, you won’t have peace!”

“The Situ Household is a top-tier family in Aolai Country, with a hundred ways to kill you, and you, helpless against me!”

“As for those Spirit Stones, they’re just temporarily in your possession, once the tea party ends, I will reclaim them, with interest.”

Situ Guixiong bellowed, almost delirious with rage.

This roller-coaster of emotions almost drove him mad, initially believing that he had reached a secret agreement with the other party and had successfully captured the honor of being the top youth of his generation.

Little did he expect that his dignity and pride were just a joke in the other’s eyes, nothing but tools for accumulating wealth.

He was taken completely for a ride, a laughing stock who had willingly taken the bait and played right into the other’s hands.

Today, he had lost all face, and it was all because of this person!

Situ Guixiong’s eyes brimmed with venomous hatred, and he silently vowed to tear the other apart to vent the hatred in his heart.

At the same time, he was full of doubt. Having lived in Aolai Country for so many years, he had never heard of such a genius. Where on earth had this guy sprung from?

The claims about his village made earlier were probably all fabrications, concocted on a whim.

Once back, he would have his family investigate; if it was just an ordinary family, it would be immediately eradicated!

But his plans were doomed to fail. Li Xiaobai didn’t care at all, currently wearing a Human Skin Mask, even if Situ Guixiong carved his face into his Primordial Spirit, he would never be able to find him afterward.

This move was a blood profit without a loss!
