The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1212 - 1211: Suffering from a Lack of Education

Bei Cang was already envious just watching this thing, and when Tang Rao mentioned it, he immediately became enthusiastic."Jinxiu, come and demonstrate for Brother Bei Cang!"

Upon hearing this, Bei Cang finally noticed the woman beside Tang Rao.

He initially thought she was just a maid, but now it seemed that Fang Jinxiu held an extraordinary place in Tang Rao's heart.

"Yes."

Between men, Fang Jinxiu would always adopt a humble demeanor to win Tang Rao's favor.

Tang Rao was a normal man, and outside, she still wished to maintain some dignity.

"This is a handgun's sound, this is Purple Crystal; the handgun has Purple Crystal added as ammunition. Pull the trigger, and look."

Fang Jinxiu pointed to a small bird in the sky. She pulled the trigger, and with a bang, the handgun made a noise. The bird that was flying fell to the ground, motionless.

"This is just a small demonstration. The handgun can kill birds and can kill people. This gun can injure those below mid-stage Divine, and can kill lower Divine. I haven't developed a higher-level gun yet."

Fang Jinxiu felt ashamed; if she were more skilled, she might have already figured out how to deal with those above mid-stage Divine.

"What, you designed and researched this?"

Bei Cang was utterly excited just upon seeing the demonstration, and after hearing it was Fang Jinxiu, he was fascinated by the couple's talents. A woman who can research new Divine Artifacts willingly staying behind Tang Rao as his beacon; clearly, Tang Rao must hold greater research value than Fang Jinxiu.

"It's me, but unfortunately, due to my lack of knowledge, I've only reached this stage. I'll have to proceed step by step in the future."

Fang Jinxiu finished speaking and said no more.

"Brother Tang Rao, look, we are a few people with similar interests, able to chat together. I won't force your dear treasure, but I'm curious whether this thing will always be unique, or if it might be researched for sale in the future?"

If it's buyable, Bei Cang would bankrupt himself to purchase it.

"For now, it's just meant to be the shop's treasure for display. When conditions permit, I might offer some to people destined to have it. Good things are meant to be shared, aren't they?"

The sense of camaraderie in Tang Rao's words resonated deeply with Bei Cang.

"That would be wonderful, then I'll await Brother Tang Rao's good news."

Knowing he might still get a handgun, Bei Cang laughed foolishly, like a five-hundred-pound fool.

"It's fine, saying it like that feels too formal."

Tang Rao and Bei Cang enjoyed a very pleasant conversation.

Someone who initially seemed like trouble ended up being reasonable after the conversation.

"Brother Bei Cang, pick anything you fancy, and I'll have Zhang Wang give you a discount, it's just brotherly kindness."

If relations are slightly better, Tang Rao would politely say to choose anything liked, we are brothers here, it's a gesture from a brother. Unfortunately, the relationship wasn't quite strong enough for free gifts, so a nominal token had to be collected.

"Thank you, Brother Tang Rao."

Bei Cang left with Tang Rao, laughing and chatting, Zhang Wang was surprised to see them leave on amiable terms.

"Boss?"

Zhang Wang gave Tang Rao a puzzled look.

The relationship between Tang Rao and Bei Cang was puzzling to Zhang Wang.

"Don't look at me like that, it was just a misunderstanding, Brother Bei Cang and I have sorted it. From now on, when Bei Cang comes to buy, he gets the lowest discount."

Clearly, Bei Cang had become a VIP at Kao Shan Shop. After all, since Tang Rao owned it now, even if Tang Rao said to give things away, Zhang Wang wouldn't blink.

"Thank you, Brother Tang Rao, for valuing me. I'll need to come by more often now, don't feel like you're losing out."

Wherever Bei Cang conducts business, it's not really support; why not choose a high-grade place? Luckily, Kao Shan Shop met the standard.

After sending off Bei Cang, Tang Rao called Zhang Wang aside.

Since there were many customers, he wanted to have a private conversation with Zhang Wang.

"Help me investigate Bei Cang. What's his background? Is he a Loose Cultivator or affiliated with a Sect? Is he reliable? Update me first thing after investigating."

With Divine Realm's resources, it's very difficult for a Loose Cultivator to reach mid-stage Divine at Bei Cang's age, but he did. If he has a family, great, Tang Rao could use that to climb higher; if not, it's fine too. At least he encountered a self-taught talent, perhaps enlightening Tang Rao further.

"Yes."

Zhang Wang agreed.

"Zhang Wang, there's another matter I wish to discuss with you."

It's about Elder Lin.

"Elder Lin accepted me as his Closed-door Disciple, personally teaching me his skills, and then he passed away."

It was a grievous message; Zhang Wang regarded Elder Lin as a father figure he didn't get to bid farewell to.

"I knew this day would come, but didn't expect it to be so soon."

Upon hearing about Elder Lin's passing, Zhang Wang, although sad, remained steadfast.

"It's a choice the elder made, let him walk his path."

As long as the elder passed without regret.

A man of understanding, Tang Rao's esteem for Zhang Wang rose after hearing his words.

Elsewhere was less harmonious than with Tang Rao.

Two severely wounded individuals returned to the cave to face punishment from the black-clothed person. Yes, they had caused trouble again.

"Master, the mission failed again, this time we couldn't even enter the Mountain Gate, please punish us."

Leng Pengfei and Li Tao's bodies seemed to be scorched by fire, oozing oil.

"Punish, what on earth should I punish you for?"

The black-clothed person kicked them away.

"You mean you couldn't even get into the Mountain Gate?"

Though Tang Rao had arranged an Array, given their power, entering should've been simple.

"Master, this time the Mountain Gate didn't seem protected by an Array but by something unfathomable, shrouded by a Divine Artifact."

Leng Pengfei's feeling was valid; Tang Rao did shield it with a barrier, but the black-clothed person was unaware, thinking Leng Pengfei was shirking responsibility.

"I want to see what kind of impressive Array makes you hesitate at just a glance."

Before leaving, the black-clothed person took out two bags of white powder and sprinkled it on them, healing their bleeding and sweat-soaked bodies gradually.
