Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation Chapter 104

Gu Dezhi looked back at the villa which was shrouded in an ethereal aura after ending the call then shook his head resentfully, "Everyone says that Jianghu has vulgar professions. I never believed it before but looks like it's true."
His secretary to the side asked, "Secretary Gu, what happened?"
"That Wang Jianzhi had already died 60 years ago. These people are really something. The Wang family exploited a dead person's name to rule over Jiangnan for over 60 years then this Jiang Luoxia exploited it to bring both fame and fortune to himself."
The secretary also agreed to it, "You're right. How can someone even live for 200 years?"
"Yeah."
…
Jiang Xiu was currently cultivating inside the villa. There were already 27 Divine Regalia on his arm now which formed half a character, and they were glowing faintly.
He caressed it excitedly.
27 of them had merely revealed the tip of the iceberg, which was really astonishing. According to what Jiang Xiu knew, the Shadow Emperor Divine Race was the first one whose complete Divine Regalia consisted of 31. This was already classified as a top-grade result and also got them the moniker of Glyph Kings. From his judgment, it looked like he would surpass even 31 Divine Regalia.
He then frowned immediately. After using up the River Swallowing Toad's inner core, his cultivation speed had dropped a lot. This really made him feel unwell.
"I have to find some means to increase the cultivation speed."
"This speed is too slow."
He wished to know how many Divine Regalia would form from his first Divine Regalia Pattern and what kind of ability he would gain from it.
"Better to look for places where miracles have occurred."
"Maybe I can find one or two things to eat…"
He walked out of the room while thinking of sending Cheng Lingsu to buy him a few books related to this.
However, when he came to the drawing room, his face went frigid immediately. Cheng Lingsu was laying on the chair comfortably and watching television while munching on snacks.
Melodious music played through the television as a heavenly voice resounded within the drawing room after the prelude ended. A girl wearing a white cheongsam stood on the stage. Her beautiful black hair laid on her pretty shoulders like a waterfall flowing down. She also wore a crystal crown on her head which made her look lovely, and she was singing through the microphone right now.
Xiao Xuetong, she was the most famous star right now.
Every girl aspired to become one, and even the proud Cheng Lingsu wasn't an exception. She was quite infatuated with Xiao Xuetang.
"Looks like you're making yourself at home…"
The ice-cold voice frightened Cheng Lingsu. She stood up in a hurry and looked at Jiang Xiu timidly, stuttering while replying to him, "I-I got tired after mopping the floor, so I thought of watching television for a bit…"
Her hair was messy and strands of hair laid on her forehead which was drenched in sweat. Her pale face gazed at Jiang Xiu with panic flashing through her eyes.
Jiang Xiu was quite familiar with this gaze. In the previous timeline, whenever he was in a rage, Cheng Lingran would look at him with this kind of expression filled with pleading.
"Go buy some books for this Deity. Buy anything related to remnants or traces of religions."
"Okay!"
Cheng Lingsu nodded then turned around to leave but stopped, "I don't have money."
"Take this."
Jiang Xiu gave a card to her. Cheng Lingsu replied in a cramped voice, "I'll help you buy the books but can you give me a leave for 3 hours? I want to attend Xiao Xuetong's concert."
"Hahaha…"
Jiang Xiu laughed out loudly. He doubted whether he was acting too benevolent towards Cheng Lingsu.
"Only for 3 hours. I'll return home immediately after it's over, and this won't delay my other works."
Cheng Lingsu pleaded.
"Did you think this Deity will agree?"
Despair flashed through her eyes. She knew Jiang Xiu wanted to take revenge on her. The more she wished to do something, the more he wouldn't let her do it. She looked at the television with a gaze of reluctance. Cheng Lingsu always wanted to go to Xiao Xuetong's concert, but she never had the opportunity to do so as she was pretty busy studying for the college entrance exams. She didn't get a chance after that too.
Cheng Lingsu's phone started ringing at this moment, "Hey, Sis!"
"I've reached the Imperial Capital. You are with Little Xiu, right? Act sensibly at Uncle and Aunt's place, okay? Live well."
Cheng Lingsu looked at the villa which was similar to an empty playground. She had never lived so well in her entire lifetime.
"Mhm. I got it."
"Remember to go visit dad and mom tomorrow. Help them out if they need anything. You have to do my share too since I'm not there now."
"Mhm!"
Cheng Lingsu said, "Sis, is that all? I'll hang the call then."
After listening to her little sister's tone, Cheng Lingran understood that her spoon-fed sister couldn't accept that she had gone away after their home had met with such an unfortunate event.
"Right, I heard that Xiao Xuetong went to Jiang City for a concert. I would have attended the one here in the Imperial Capital if I knew this before. It's really a pity that I missed it." Though she said this, she actually wasn't in the mood to attend such a concert. She only said this to elevate her little sister's spirit.
"Yes, it's a pity that we can't see it." Cheng Lingsu replied dispiritedly.
"Give the phone to Little Xiu…"
Cheng Lingsu gave the phone over to Jiang Xiu, "Hey, Sis. Have you reached there?"
"Yeah, your friend is very thoughtful. They even delivered me back to the university." Cheng Lingran continued, "I feel that Susu's mood is quite gloomy. Will you take her to the concert tonight? I'll pay you the money back for it later."
Cheng Lingsu heard this quite clearly, hope flashing through her eyes, but she had given up already. She believed that Jiang Xiu wouldn't agree as he was set on taking revenge on her.
Jiang Xiu wasn't expecting Cheng Lingran to make such a request. He felt quite helpless, "Alright!"
He agreed?
Cheng Lingsu felt happy with this unexpected outcome.
"There will be many people attending the concert so you must take care of Susu properly…"
Cheng Lingran ended the call after speaking a bit more.
"First go buy the books for this Deity then you can go buy the concert tickets…" Since Jiang Xiu had promised Cheng Lingran, he would definitely accomplish it.
Cheng Lingsu thought to herself. Do you think this Lady is an idiot? I'll tire myself out after carrying that many books so I'll naturally go buy the concert tickets first. Xiao Xuetong's tickets are quite difficult to obtain. What will I do if they are sold out completely?
Jiang Xiu's gaze fell on that famous star in the television after Cheng Lingsu left.
Xiao Xuetong's singing voice contributed quite little to the reason for her popularity, the main reason for it was her beauty. Her features were quite clear under the lighting. Even a keen gaze won't find a single blemish on her pretty face. However, Jiang Xiu's gaze fixed upon her chest. There was no need to explain it, she possessed a really astonishing rack.
"An Evil God's Curse?"
A necklace laid on top of her chest. Though it looked pretty on the exterior, to Jiang Xiu, it appeared like a ferocious-looking demon. He blinked his eyes and this time, he saw a person kneeling in front of an Evil God's avatar and recounting things to it.
The Entertainment Circle was the breeding ground for many little demons, but an Evil God only brought tragedy and ruin.
"It looks like this star is duping everyone."
After Xiao Xuetong finished a song, she smiled towards her fans and waved her hands as a greeting. As they say, a smile is enough to bring down a city, another smile is enough to bring down the country. All the fans screamed at this beautiful scene.
…
Cheng Lingsu returned back at 6 in the evening with several big and small bags. Her palms were red from lifting them, and her arms trembled. A single book was quite heavy, and she had carried many of them over.
She was drenched in sweat from the fatigue yet she still said, "The concert begins at 7:30 PM. Let's go early as a traffic jam might occur on the road."
Jiang Xiu first took a look over the books she had bought, his gaze fixed on a book called Divine Race Evolution Theory. He praised her for her selection and really thought she was worthy of being named a top student.
He browsed through it casually and left a remark, "Call a cab."
…
Xiao Xuetong's concert was a really grand occasion for Jiang City, and the stadium crowded with people.
"Looks like she's quite popular." Jiang Xiu commented.
"Naturally, Xiao Xuetong's been the most famous female singer in the country for the past 2-3 years. No one has been able to surpass her till now. Her concerts are always crowded no matter where it's hosted." Cheng Lingsu explained to him.
"It's quite difficult to obtain tickets to her concert."
"How did you buy it then?"
Cheng Lingsu turned silent. A rowdy youth waved tickets for the concert nearby at this moment, pressing close to the people, "Want a ticket? It's just 5000…"
Scalped ticket?
Jiang Xiu asked, "How much did you spend on these two tickets?"
Cheng Lingsu replied timidly, "It was 4000 for one. 8000 for two." She believed that since this money were all obtained by him from her Cheng family, it wouldn't matter if she spent it. She even thought that she had spent less and thought it would have been better if she spent another 40,000 or 400,000.
