I Cultivate Passively

Chapter 116: Awkward Situation

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I’m sorry! Sister Ying has always been so willful! Please forgive me.”

Chen Jin walked in front of Zhou Feng with a bitter smile on his face. It seemed that this was not the first time such a thing had happened.

“Why are you saying so much? That gourd looks pretty good. Help me bring it over!”

Ye Ying’s tone was full of arrogance as she directly targeted the medicine gourd on Zhou Feng’s waist.

The bitter smile on Chen Jin’s face intensified upon hearing this.

“Fellow cultivator, I wonder if you can cede this gourd of yours? Don’t worry, I will definitely not let you suffer a loss!”

These two people seemed to be quite famous in this market.

In an instant, many people in the surroundings began to gather around to watch.

At that moment, Zhou Feng also understood what was going on. It turned out that the target was the medicine gourd on his waist.

Although the medicine gourd didn’t look like much, it was still a top-grade soul artifact.

Moreover, it was even more valuable than ordinary top-grade soul artifacts because it could refine spirit herbs.

If not for that, Pill Master Yuan wouldn’t have kept it with him all this time.

Under normal circumstances, such a top-grade soul artifact couldn’t be found at all.

Zhou Feng glanced at Chen Jin indifferently, then at Ye Ying. “No!”

His tone was extremely decisive, not allowing any leeway for bargaining.

Ye Ying’s nose wrinkled slightly upon hearing Zhou Feng’s words, and she immediately shouted at Chen Jin in annoyance, “Damn it! Chen Jin! Hurry up and teach this arrogant person a lesson! Let him know what the rules are!”

She looked just like a spoiled and unruly young lady.

It seemed that she had been spoiled too much.

From the looks of it, Ye Ying’s background should not be insignificant. After all, it was impossible to act so unreasonably in the blessed land without a strong background.

When the onlookers saw this scene, they acted as if they were watching a good show.

Chen Jin once again revealed a bitter smile and didn’t say anything else. He took two steps back and adopted a fighting stance.

“Hey! Is this Zhou Feng?”

“Zhou Feng? Who is he?”

“You don’t know? He’s the one who crushed Gong Qu! I heard that Eldest Senior Sister brought him into the blessed land!”

“Is that so? If It’s true, then this will be a good show to watch!”

“…”

A few people at the side recognized Zhou Feng.

The current Zhou Feng still had a trace of fame in the blessed land.

It was mainly because he had connections with Leng Maner and offended a bigshot. Therefore, many people remembered Zhou Feng’s name.

‘Something seems to be wrong!’

Looking at Chen Jin, who had entered battle mode, Zhou Feng didn’t know why but felt something was wrong in his heart.

The whole sequence of events was too illogical.

An unruly young lady had appeared out of nowhere and was about to start a fight.

‘You insist on fighting? Then I will not!’

Although Zhou Feng could not tell what was wrong, he knew what others did not want to do!

They were trying to lure them into falling into a trap.

If he remembered correctly, fighting should not be allowed in the market!

Although disciples were allowed to fight each other in the blessed land, it seemed limited to certain areas.

Therefore, Zhou Feng did not speak, nor did he have the intention to attack. He directly ignored the two people in front of him.

“You! Chen Jin! Hurry up and attack. How dare you ignore me!?”

As Zhou Feng kept ignoring Ye Ying, the unruly eldest daughter’s temper flared.

The bitter smile on Chen Jin’s face intensified as well.

“Why don’t we go to the Life-Death Arena and have a match?” Chen Jin once again blocked Zhou Feng’s path and used a persuasive tone to speak to Zhou Feng.

Zhou Feng instantly confirmed in his heart that the two people in front of him were colluding together to find trouble with him.

Moreover, it was the classic case of good cop and bad cop.

No wonder Ye Ying had said earlier that he had just entered the blessed land. This should be a trap.

Zhou Feng believed that those who could enter the blessed land should not be so brainless.

However, these two people should have some background. To be able to make such a commotion in the market, they should not be afraid of others taking revenge later.

Zhou Feng still acted as usual.

‘I won’t speak. I don’t care what you say. You will only succeed in doing the opposite. The more you want me to do this, the more I won’t do it.’

Zhou Feng showed no reaction and looked like a dead man.

Chen Jin seemed unable to hang on any longer.

“Brother! Why don’t you give me some face? We don’t want this gourd anymore. Let’s just have a simple exchange!”

Although Chen Jin still sounded amicable, his words carried a hint of threat. It was as if he was saying that everyone was cultivating in the blessed land.

‘You’re not giving me face by lowering your head, so why don’t you give me face so that I can get off the stage?’

Chen Jin was using this subtext.

“…”

Zhou Feng watched Chen Jin’s performance quietly. His face remained expressionless, and he didn’t say a single word.

The atmosphere had fallen into a very awkward state.

Zhou Feng was now making it clear that if they wanted to make a move, then they should make a move.

‘If you want to make a move, then I’ll counterattack.

‘If you don’t make a move, then you’ll just wait here.’

Chen Jin had never encountered such a situation before. He was bewildered.

‘This is not right! Why is he not saying anything? How am I supposed to deal with this?’

No matter what others said, they would always defend themselves when faced with a situation like this.

Then, Chen Jin would be able to seize the opportunity and use it to lure and provoke them.

According to the temper of most of the disciples in the sect, they would definitely not be able to hold themselves back in the end.

However, Zhou Feng didn’t say anything, nor did he have any expression on his face.

This time, Chen Jin didn’t even know how to continue acting!

That’s right! As Zhou Feng had guessed, Chen Jin and Ye Ying were deliberately looking for trouble.

And Zhou Feng was just one of their targets.

Their goal was to get the medicine gourd on Zhou Feng’s waist.

They had already recognized that this gourd was definitely a top-grade soul artifact.

Such a soul artifact was basically priceless in the outside world. It would definitely be a huge profit if they could exchange it for some Spirit Stones.

Previously, they had relied on this kind of trick to get their hands on other people’s items.

In the end, they relied on both hard and soft methods to obtain some good things.

Moreover, Chen Jin and Ye Ying would not choose people with a Grade-5 Soul Altar and above cultivation.

They usually chose people below the Grade-5 of Soul Altar realm as their targets.

Coupled with the fact that they were cautious, they had succeeded time and time again. They already had quite a bit of fame here in the market.

This caused them only to be able to target disciples who had just entered the blessed land.

Seeing this, Ye Ying immediately shouted in exasperation, “Do it! Just do it! Chen Jin! Are you deaf!?”

Chen Jin, who was somewhat embarrassed, revealed his trademark bitter smile.

Then… violent Spiritual Qi gathered on Chen Jin’s crystal clear right hand.
