Starting Cultivation in Wasteland-Chapter 499 - 371: News of the Divine Script

Qu Jianlei’s question was not without cause, mainly because this lady named Xiang Xue, her words and actions were too calm. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

The group of superpower warriors emphasizes strength as the ultimate respect, hoping for B-level to have an equal conversation with A-level, is basically just a dream.

Whether Hilton or Panda, both are not only A-level but also have strong backgrounds.

Xiang Xue came to the door, she must know this point.

In this situation, she can still communicate, without being humble or arrogant, clearly there must be some reliance.

Qu Jianlei couldn’t think of anything else, except having a supreme in the family, that could allow this woman to calmly face him.

Sure enough, Hilton answered very straightforwardly, "Xiang Xue’s father is a supreme within the organization, he spoils this youngest daughter the most."

Then he looked at Sofia, "Let’s step aside for a bit, and later I’ll introduce you to some business."

Hilton and these two sisters only became familiar through confrontation, they’ve already met several times recently.

In an A-level warrior’s eyes, ordinary people truly do not matter, but if this ordinary person is close with Panda, then it is a different matter.

Just like how he was also very polite to Xiang Xue, only out of respect for a certain supreme within the organization.

Hilton knew, although these sisters hadn’t slept with Panda, they were people Panda cared about.

Just for this reason alone, it’s worth him investing.

Others might think these two girls have nothing attractive to Panda, but Hilton really doesn’t see it that way.

He’s accustomed to reverse thinking: Panda doesn’t seem interested, so why haven’t they cut ties?

Actually, the reason Qu Jianlei hasn’t severed ties is just to keep two informants to help focus on various news, this is very necessary.

Moreover, these sisters and he have also experienced great horror between life and death, better to deal with the familiar than the unfamiliar.

Hilton wasn’t very aware of these, but he could observe, Panda’s social circle is very narrow—almost none!

He’s unsure whether the reality is like this, nor is he sure if Panda secretly has any personnel.

But unquestionably, in Green Water City, there are only so few who can have close contact with Panda.

The sisters haven’t gotten into bed with Panda yet, but by the time they really climb into bed, it will be too late to maintain relationships.

Sofia isn’t unfamiliar with Hilton, it’s just that they virtually haven’t had any private meetings.

Now Hilton greeted her like this, it’s equivalent to him acknowledging her as a notable person!

To Sofia, this really feels a bit like an honor.

She’s a business guide, the other side’s hinting that she needs to go out to avoid suspicion, she naturally understands the importance of discretion.

Some information is indeed sensitive, better not to hear if hearing won’t help, so she promptly and obediently followed out.

As for what the other party said about introducing business... just listen in, it’s fine with or without.

Once the two went out, the pair still in the room continued to stare at each other, neither speaking.

After a while, when those two had gone far, Xiang Xue gently opened her cherry lips, "My reason for seeing you has nothing to do with my father. You don’t need to mind."

"You don’t need to speak so humorously," Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes and answered irritably.

"If we aren’t considering your father’s factor, do you think... you’re qualified to talk to me?"

This attitude of his was quite harsh, knowing how important face is to many second-generation individuals.

But Xiang Xue pretended not to hear it, continuing to examine the interior layout, "I’ve recently reached a bottleneck in my cultivation."

Then she turned her head to look at Qu Jianlei, "I’ve heard you have a new cultivation method?"

Your attitude is not very respectful! Qu Jianlei doesn’t like the aura of the other side leading the conversation.

So he answered stiffly, "Who told you that? Let me know as well, I’ve been stuck at A-level for many years."

Upon hearing this, Xiang Xue raised her beautiful eyebrows, clearly stunned for a moment.

Her background is extremely excellent, her cultivation speed is also fast, reaching B-level shortly after her twenties, she’s truly the pride of heaven.

Along with her stunning appearance and a supreme father, she has always enjoyed the treatment of being surrounded by stars.

No one ever talked to her like this before, let alone A-level, even supreme is very kind when seeing her.

But her surprise was only momentary, the next moment, she returned to normal.

She stared at Qu Jianlei’s eyes, "I’ve researched that new cultivation method."

"I must admit, the person who designed this cultivation method is a genius... able to use B-level crystals for cultivation at C-level."

"I’ve never admired anyone growing up, but I truly respect this person."

After finishing this sentence, she fell silent, silently watching the other person, the room fell into silence.

Qu Jianlei waited for quite a while, realizing the other person really didn’t intend to speak further before he slowly said.

"Those achievements don’t need your affirmation... what exactly do you want to say?"

Xiang Xue was finally defeated by the other’s indifference.

She had maintained a strong aura all this time, a little setback wouldn’t bother her.

However, the attitude the other exhibited wasn’t just disdain, it was outright disregarding, this made her feel deeply hurt.

She adjusted her mood, "I’ve been at B-level for five years... wanting to advance to A-level as soon as possible."

Pause for a moment, seeing the other doesn’t respond, she straightforwardly stated, "I wish to obtain the related cultivation methods for water attribute."

Qu Jianlei waited for a moment, realizing the other party was no longer speaking, he simply shook his head, "No."

"I can pay," Xiang Xue raised her wrist, pressed the button on her watch, and a beam of light projected onto the wall.

On the wall appeared an enlarged image, "I have the Divine Text Document."

Qu Jianlei looked at the three divine texts on the wall, lost in thought for a moment, then nodded slightly, "Nice watch."

His communication watch could also project, but it was far less clear than the other party’s. Such a high-end watch was hard to come by.

Xiang Xue was a little surprised by his reaction, paused for a moment before asking, "Have you seen this Divine Text Document before?"

Of course, I have! Qu Jianlei slowly shook his head, "It’s not about the document, I just don’t wish to discuss this matter recently."

Xiang Xue observed him carefully, suddenly speaking out, "This document... can’t be used for cultivation either?"

Of course! Qu Jianlei spread his hands, "I have no knowledge of divine texts, I never speak carelessly about things I don’t understand."

You’re eighty percent likely lying! Although Xiang Xue was arrogant, her observation skills exceeded those of ordinary people.

She pondered for a moment, then asked, "What should I pay... What would you want for you to trade with me?"

Qu Jianlei shook his head decisively, "I’ve already said, I won’t discuss this matter recently... One must have principles."

Xiang Xue stared into his eyes, suddenly speaking, "I’ve heard, you’re more interested in where you can get the document, right?"

This time, Qu Jianlei finally didn’t remain indifferent, showing a slight startle.

Then he smiled indifferently, "Just curious, I fantasize, relying solely on myself to obtain the Divine Text Document."

"So, such information isn’t worth becoming trading terms, and I don’t believe you can master it either."

That last sentence left Xiang Xue speechless, it was indeed the truth.

Though her cultivation level wasn’t low, she was ultimately young and had no qualifications for major events — acquiring the Divine Text Document also carried significant risk.

Originally, she thought if the other party admitted it, she could pester her father for some divine text channel information to trade.

But the other party directly denied it, blocking another route.

However, she immediately brightened her eyes, "You don’t think the information is important, so how can you be sure I don’t have it?"

Oops, slipped up! Qu Jianlei felt a bit annoyed, yet there was nothing he could do, as he wasn’t good at negotiation.

Then he shook his head, "Alright, I have an important party to attend, let’s leave it at that."

Xiang Xue was taken aback, following him out of the villa, only to say, "A fifteenth birthday celebration, right?"

"Yes," Qu Jianlei replied casually, not thinking the other party couldn’t find out even this little detail.

But the feeling of being watched... to be honest, really wasn’t good.

"My fifteenth birthday... feels just like yesterday," Xiang Xue reflected, "Time flies so fast."

Then she perked up, "Can I come along to see as well?"

"Hmph," a cold snort sounded, and it was Sofia coming over, with an unhappy expression.

She went all out for Qu Jianlei, knowing the other party’s extraordinary background, yet showing the courage to protect him.

However, she dared not say much more, just wrapping her arm around the Panda’s and watching Xiang Xue vigilantly.

Qu Jianlei glanced at Xiang Xue, waved his hand, inviting the two to leave his yard, then stepped out the gate.

The other party said she wanted to attend Teng Pingping’s birthday celebration, though he was uncertain if strangers were allowed to participate.

So he simply ignored it, if such customs existed here and the other party could enter, he saw no need to stop it, right?

After all, such things are merrier with more people.

As for Sofia clinging to his arm, he did not oppose this, as having a weak decoy is better than having none.

The two walked the short distance, the Teng family’s yard wasn’t far, just over three hundred meters.

Before entering the yard, he released Sofia’s hand, "That’s enough, isn’t it?"

He just entered Teng’s small yard, and a large SUV came driving up behind.

The car parked outside the parking line, and Xiang Xue and Hilton got out.

In such a short time, Xiang Xue had changed outfits, wearing a formal dress for the occasion.

The door welcoming guests was being handled by Teng Pingping’s third brother.

Xiang Xue approached to chat briefly, gifting a small box, and unexpectedly entered with Hilton.

Sofia had been watching her the entire time, seeing this she couldn’t help but frown, muttering under her breath, "What a busybody."

Teng Wenli was chatting with others, suddenly sensing a different aura, he turned to see Hilton just entering.

A-level Warrior? He turned and walked over, smiling as he greeted, "Hello sir, may I ask who you are?"

"I’m a friend of Panda," Hilton replied with a smile, "I just happened to hear..."

As he was speaking, Qu Jianlei suddenly moved, arriving next to Xiang Xue, and pulled her aside.

Xiang Xue, caught off guard, staggered instantly in anger, "You!"

A blue light flashed, her left shoulder’s exterior instantly turned charred black.
