My place is on fire

Chapter 1054 Before I change my mind.

The Pez family is also one of the families ranked among the top 100 in terms of strength in the Sky City.

After thousands of years of operation and accumulation of seven or eight generations, the family has accumulated considerable wealth.

Numa Pez kept his word and quickly sent someone to the family's logistics department, which managed supplies, to get the reward promised to Luo Xuning.

"Here are 1000 million Sky Coins, 10 Strength Fruits, 10 Agility Fruits, and a Plant Spirit!"

"This plant spirit is extremely precious and can greatly enhance a person's strength!"

"These supplies are to thank you for saving Lori's life. Of course, I don't mean that we are even from now on."

"If you encounter any trouble in Sky City in the future, you can come to our Pez family. As long as I can help you, I will never refuse."

Numa Pez counted the supplies that his men had brought to thank Luo Xuning one by one, with a very proud expression on his face.

The value of this batch of materials, if converted into Skycoins, would be 3000 million Skycoins.

With this money, it is enough for Luo Xuning and Luo Li to live a good life in Sky City without worries about food and clothing.

The guards of the Pez family looked at Luo Xuning and Luo Li with envy in their eyes.

This wave has almost made me financially independent!

but……

When Luo Shuning and Luo Li saw the reward given to them by Numa Pez, they had strange expressions on their faces.

The spirits of plants and trees can actually be called precious materials...

Such original stuff.

Luo Xuning now has tens of thousands of fine plant spirits in his space ring!
Compared with the improvement level of fine-quality plant spirits, ordinary plant spirits are just garbage!
And things like the Fruit of Strength and the Fruit of Agility are also dispensable to Luo Xuning and Luo Li.

"Ahem, thank you for the reward, Chief Numa. I will accept it with shame."

Although he looked down on these things in his heart, Luo Xuning still maintained a smile and humility on the surface.

After saying that, Luo Xuning put all the supplies into the holy relic ring.

The space area that can be freely controlled by the relic ring has reached 100 cubic meters, which is larger than the space ring and can hold more cargo.

"You're welcome. You deserve this. Lori is my most beloved daughter. Her safety is more important than anything else."

After Numa Pez finished speaking, he looked at his assistant and said:

"The six guards who went out with Loli this time are all fired and will never be hired again!"

"Yes!"

The assistant nodded and agreed, then turned around and went out to handle the procedures for dismissing the six guards.

Although it costs money to dismiss the guards, it is nothing to the Pez family.

Luo Shuning looked at Numa Pez and said, "Numa Chief, before I leave, I want to ask you one last thing."

"You tell me, as long as I know it, I will definitely tell you."

Numa Pez turned and looked at Luo Xuning with a sincere smile on his face.

"Do you know if there is any way to recover quickly from the injuries caused by the cry of the Soul-Crying Bird?"

It can't be said that Luo Xuning was desperate this time, he was just trying his best to save the situation, he was just asking casually.

It’s best to know, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t know. Just ask when you go out.

"Being injured by the devilish sound of the Soul-Crying Bird is a bit troublesome..."

Numa Pez frowned and said, “As far as I know, those who are injured by the devilish sound of the Soul-Crying Bird will never be able to recover to their best condition in their lifetime.

You will be troubled by that devilish sound for the rest of your life! It will also affect your cultivation. The later you go, the harder it will be to improve your strength. Instead, it will decrease."

After Luo Xuning heard what Numa Pez said, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart. Would it be difficult for him to recover in his lifetime?
Is it that serious?

"unless……"

Numa Pez changed the subject and said:
“Unless you can invite a master of the same level as the leader of the Miaoyin Sect in the Sky City.

Only by using the unique melodies of their Miaoyin Sect can you dispel or purify the evil sound lingering deep in your soul.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to get rid of the troubles of the devil's voice for the rest of your life, and your cultivation will be difficult to improve at all."

Luo Shuning's eyes lit up when he heard what Numa Pez said, and he asked eagerly:
"The leader of Miaoyin Sect? How much does it cost to ask her to treat you?"

"Hahaha... Mr. Luo, stop joking."

Numa Pez laughed twice and said:

"The Miaoyin Sect is one of the top 10 super sects in Sky City. It is much stronger than our Pez family!"

"Do you think they are short of money? Money is nothing to the leader of Miaoyin Sect."

"No money? Then what do you want?"

Luo Xuning humbly sought advice.

Numa Pez said directly: "Various rare materials, treasures, equipment and the like. Of course, they must be rare. Ordinary ones are not lacking either."

"I see. Thank you for your advice, Chief Numa. We will take our leave now and will not disturb you any further."

After inquiring about the situation, Luo Xuning said goodbye to Nu Pez, turned around and left with Luo Li.

"Luo Xuning, Luo Li, remember to come and play with me often!"

Loli Pez waved goodbye to Luo Xuning and Luo Li with reluctance, and watched the two of them walk out of the Pez family's door and enter the Sky City.

……

“It’s so magical here!”

Wandering in the sky city, Lori looked left and right, curious about everything here.

In the City in the Sky, except for super large manors like the one in the Pez family's home, all the buildings are like kites, suspended in the air and fixed to the ground with several strings of unknown material.

The roads in the city are spacious enough for walking.

In the city, few people chose to walk like Luo Xuning and Luo Li. Almost everyone traveled by flying in the air.

Walking in the Sky City is already a very primitive means of transportation.

"It is quite peculiar."

Luo Xuning looked at the various buildings floating in the air. They were amazing at first, but after a while they didn't seem so novel anymore.

After all, this entire huge sky city is suspended in the void.

It is normal for buildings in the city to float in the air.

And, from a macro perspective.

In fact, our home planet, the Earth, is also suspended in space.

The same is true for the moon, Mars, Saturn, and Venus.

"Let's find a place to stay first and see what delicious food this city has. I'm getting tired of eating barbecue."

"Yeah! Me too! I really want to eat some fruit to satisfy my craving! I haven't eaten fruit and vegetables for a long time!"

Even the most delicious food will eventually make you tired of it. When Luo Xuning and Luo Li were in the holy relic ring and outer space, they had always relied on the barbecue in the storage space to survive, and they had long been tired of it.

However, there is no other food outside, so I can only eat meat!
Although they are all high-quality proteins, they are also monotonous and boring.

Soon, the two saw a two-story building floating twenty or thirty meters in the air.

There is a big plaque hanging outside the building with a big word "Residence" written on it, which is very simple and clear.

Luo Xuning and Luo Li flew into the air and entered the building through the door.

"Hello, guests. Would you like to stay at the hotel or have a meal?"

As soon as Luo Xuning and Luo Li entered the door, a man in hemp gray work clothes came forward and greeted them with a smile.

The first floor of the store is an open hall with more than a dozen tables, three of which are occupied by customers, and the rest are vacant seats.

Luo Xuning took a casual look around and found that the hygiene of this hotel was quite good, so he said, "Let's eat first and then stay overnight."

"Okay! Please come this way, both of you!"

The waiter turned around and took the two people to an empty table by the window. After arranging their seats, he handed them the menus.

Luo Xuning and Luo Li didn't recognize any of the dishes on the menu of this hotel.

Things like red bamboo seedlings, red flame cake, pepper and vine enzyme are completely different from the cuisine on Earth!
Ordering food is just like opening a blind box!

Luo Xuning looked at the clerk and asked, "Do you have any green leafy vegetables to recommend?"

"Yes, like this honey pear vegetable, Donglan, Xishuhua, and these, these are all vegetables with rich nutritional value and delicious to eat."

"There is also this Jade Ox and Sweet Potato Soup, which is our restaurant's signature dish. You two can order one to try. It's delicious and tasty."

The shop assistants were also very welcoming and didn't look down on others.

Luo Xuning said cheerfully, "Okay, let's order what you recommended. We'll add an extra 8 kilograms of beef. How much does it cost?"

8 jins of beef is the staple food of Luo Xuning and Luo Li.

As their strength continues to grow, Luo Xuning and Luo Li's appetite has also increased greatly.

After all, the higher your physical fitness, the more energy you need to maintain the normal functioning of your body, and the more you need to eat.

Fortunately, Luo Xuning is not short of money now. The 1000 million given by Numa Pez is enough for him to eat and drink for a while.

"Please wait a moment, I will calculate it for you!"

When the waiter saw that Luo Xuning ordered such a large amount of food, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face!

The price of the last 8 pounds of beef was more than 3000 Skycoins.

Including the dishes ordered previously, the cost of Luo Xuning's table is about 4000 Skycoins!
"Hello sir, the total value of the dishes you just ordered is 4028 Skycoins. We can round off the decimal for you, so it only costs 4000 Skycoins!"

The clerk looked at Luo Xuning with envy. Spending more than 4000 yuan on a meal was definitely considered wealthy in the Sky City.

"Ok."

Luo Xuning didn't waste any time and directly took out 4000 sky coins from his space ring and handed them to the clerk.

After the clerk took the money, he first verified its authenticity and counted it again. This time he was completely relieved.

"Please wait a moment, the food will be served to you right away!"

The waiter hurriedly took the order that Luo Xuning had just placed and ran towards the kitchen to arrange for the chef to prepare the meal.

"Sit down and wait a moment."

After greeting Luo Li, Luo Xuning sat down on a chair and looked around the store casually, admiring the exotic decoration style.

"Hmm! These are all very strange names of dishes, just like opening a blind box. I'll see what they are later."

Lori also found today's ordering very interesting, as if it was like opening a blind box.

"Hey, big brother, look over there, there's a pretty girl!"

The four guests at the table three empty tables away from Luo Xuning and Luo Li were chatting when they suddenly noticed that there was a new customer in the store.

Moreover, there was a beautiful girl among them. The four of them immediately looked at Luo Li.

After seeing that Luo Xuning only had one companion, the four of them looked at Loli with even more fiery and unscrupulous eyes.

"Xiao Si, go and invite the little beauty over to have a drink with the brothers!"

Among the four people, only one of them, a burly bald man, would invite Lori.

"Okay, big brother! I promise to complete the task!"

The man called Xiao Si stood up excitedly and walked to the dining table of Luo Xuning and Luo Li in a few steps.

"Beauty, come over and have a drink with my brothers. Give me some face."

The man spoke in a very impolite tone, and the way he invited him was almost threatening and overbearing.

After hearing the man's words, Luo Xuning's expression suddenly turned gloomy.

To be honest, when he first came to the Sky City, Luo Xuning wanted to keep a low profile and not be too high-profile or cause trouble.

But when some things come to him, he won't tolerate anyone!
"roll!"

Luo Xuning looked at the man and said only one word coldly.

The man who had a happy expression on his face just now suddenly lost his expression and became extremely vicious.

"Don't make yourself uncomfortable, kid! It's her honor to let your woman drink with our big brother!"

Lin Zhe sneered and said, "Haha, we don't need this kind of honor. Just get out of here before I change my mind."

"You are so shameless, you are looking for death!"

The man suddenly stretched out his hand, and with a swish, he pulled out a short knife about the length of an adult's forearm from the sheath on his leg and pointed the tip of the knife at Luo Xuning.

"Asshole, kneel down and kowtow to apologize now, and I will treat you as if you were farting and not bother with you!"

After the man got the knife in his hand, his temperament suddenly changed, becoming sinister and cold.

but……

Luo Li was not nervous at all and ate melon quietly. She knew that Luo Xuning would definitely handle the matter properly and she didn't need to do anything.

All you need to do is be a quiet spectator and eat the melon.

As for threats...

Sorry, she really didn't feel threatened at all.

Even though the other party had already started to attack, Lori didn't seem to panic at all.

After being used to fighting with those powerful beasts outside, it is really difficult to muster even the slightest interest in these weak humans.

Swish!
Pong!
Click!

Suddenly, the knife in the man's hand seemed to come alive and gain its own self-awareness.

It flew backwards with a bang and hit the man's right sternum, actually breaking it!
"Ah! My chest! Ouch..."

After being "attacked" by his own knife, the man fell headfirst and fell to the ground, covering his injured chest and grimacing in pain.

He really couldn't understand why his own knife attacked him!
