You Say You Believe in Science, But You Fly on a Sword - Chapter 119
Chapter 119: The Enthusiastic Police Officer
“Hello, I’ll take a cell phone. ”
Yan Qingping left the Daojian Sect and went straight to the nearest cell phone store: “I want the latest one. ”
“Oh, Fellow Daoist Yan is here too? ”
Behind him, a strongman carrying a broadsword walked in: “Why didn’t you reply to my messages a few years ago? Were you in seclusion? ”
“Hey, it’s not…”
Yan Qingping was startled: “You… there are mortals here! ”
How strange, he had only been in seclusion for a few years, why was Liang Ruo so arrogant now?
“Hey, it’s okay! The Cultivation World has already gone public! ”
Liang Ruo waved his hand, magnanimously pulled out a card, and slapped it on the cash register: “Cell phone, the latest one! ”
“Are both of you cultivators? ”
The shop assistant smiled slightly, taking out two boxes: “According to our boss’s instructions, cultivators get a 10% discount on cell phones! ”
“Hey, your boss is amazing! ”
Liang Ruo smiled: “Come on, how much? ”
“The total is thirteen thousand five hundred and sixty yuan, a 10% discount makes it twelve thousand two hundred and four. ”
“Here, swipe my card! ”
Liang Ruo smiled: “Old Yan, let’s go, find a place to have a fight today, let me see how much you’ve improved! ”
The shop assistant nearby was shocked, thinking that these two people must have a grudge, why did they want to fight as soon as they met.
But what’s with that strongman? He looks so impressive, why is he bullying old people?
“Come on, I’m at the Condensation Core Peak now! ”
Yan Qingping smiled slightly: “If you can’t beat me, that’s attempted bullying of an old person! ”
“You’re an old person? Bullshit! ”
Liang Ruo rolled his eyes at him: “Who doesn’t know about your Cultivation Technique issue? You’re only two or three years older than your Saintess, are you calling yourself an old person? ”
“Oh, okay, but first tell me, what happened while I was in seclusion these past few years? What’s going on in the Cultivation World? How did it go public with mortals? ”
Yan Qingping took the cell phone, thanked the shop assistant, and walked out with Liang Ruo, bickering as they went to find a place to fight.
Outside, a middle-aged man drinking milk tea saw the two of them, frowned, and quietly followed.
The two quickly left the city and found an uninhabited suburb.
“Come on, let me see the strength of a Condensation Core Peak cultivator! ”
Liang Ruo held a broadsword, assumed his starting stance, and shouted.
“Wait a minute, that mortal behind us…”
Yan Qingping asked: “Should we let him watch? ”
“Let him watch! It’s all public anyway! ”
Liang Ruo shrugged: “I guess Senior Brother Su Qin’an wants to make all of China cultivate… so let him watch, it’s convenient. ”
“Wait, who? Senior Brother Su? ”
Yan Qingping suddenly felt a little confused: “He did the going public thing? ”
“Hey, a lot has happened in recent years, take a look at your phone later. ”
Liang Ruo smirked: “Or let me beat you up, and I’ll tell you! ”
“Then let’s go! ”
Yan Qingping produced a green longsword. With a casual swing, a Sword Energy struck towards Liang Ruo: “See if you can have a good fight! ”
“Come on! Sky-Cleaving Slash! ”
Liang Ruo slashed forward with his broadsword, a Golden Cross-Shaped Blade Aura struck out, shattering the Sword Energy.
The wind stirred up caused the surrounding grass to tremble incessantly, and even Liang Ruo himself took half a step back.
“Hey? Condensation Core Peak is different! ”
Liang Ruo said excitedly: “Take this! ”
At this moment, a sudden siren sounded, getting closer and closer.
A police car suddenly appeared beside the two, and then a group of heavily armed Police Officers got out.
“Don’t move! Police! Put your hands behind your head and squat down! ”
The lead Police Officer shouted: “That strongman! You’ve committed threats, bullying others, and violating their human rights, surrender immediately! ”
Liang Ruo fell into thought: “Ah? ”
“What ah?!”
The Police Officer shouted: “My brother here saw you grab that old man and bring him to the suburbs, and you still want to deny it? What’s your purpose, what’s your reason, you better explain it clearly after you get to the station! Confess and be lenient, resist and be strict! ”
Liang Ruo glanced at the “brother” the Police Officer mentioned, and immediately understood.
Wasn’t this the middle-aged man who had followed him and Yan Qingping all the way?!
So he wasn’t curious, but thought he was bullying Yan Qingping?
“Now, immediately, get in the car! ”
“Um… Police Comrade! ”
Yan Qingping felt that if he didn’t speak up, Liang Ruo might really go to the station with the Police: “Isn’t there a misunderstanding? He wasn’t bullying me? We are friends. ”
The Police Captain frowned and looked at the middle-aged man beside him who had just called the police station: “What’s going on? ”
“He’s holding a knife, and you still say he’s your friend? ”
The middle-aged man clearly also thought Yan Qingping’s words were insincere: “Was he threatening you with something? Tell us honestly, the people’s police will never let any criminal get away with it, and will definitely protect you! ”
“It’s really not what you think… Liang Ruo, you son of a b1tch, say something! ”
Seeing Liang Ruo not speak for a long time, Yan Qingping immediately walked over and kicked him: “Are you really going to go in with them? ”
“Ah? Ah, everyone, you have misunderstood. ”
Liang Ruo, who looked ferocious, tried to put on a friendly and amiable appearance of an ordinary citizen: “We are really friends! ”
“If you’re friends, what are you doing with a knife? ”
The middle-aged man immediately asked: “And dragging him to such a remote place, what were you planning to do? ”
“We are cultivators. ”
Liang Ruo said helplessly: “It’s very normal for cultivators to spar with each other… and, he’s not an old man, he has a problem with his Cultivation Technique, he lost a lot of lifespan… you probably won’t understand, anyway, he’s not an old man. ”
“Cultivators…”
The Police Captain was not easily fooled: “Show us a couple of moves? ”
Liang Ruo helplessly waved his hand, and the broadsword floated above everyone’s heads.
Literally, a sword hanging above their heads.
Yan Qingping also reached out, and a mass of green Spiritual Energy appeared in his hand: “What do you think, Police Comrade? ”
“Hmm…”
After some processing, the police car left the suburbs.
It turned out to be a misunderstanding.
Before leaving, the Police Captain specifically told the two of them a lot of things like “It’s a Rule of Law Society now, don’t just pull out knives at ordinary people,” as if afraid they would go rob a bank today.
“Captain…”
In the police car, the enthusiastic middle-aged Police Officer slowly spoke: “That…”
“It’s okay. ”
The Police Captain smiled: “We police officers should always be vigilant, after all, clues are not always presented to you waiting to be discovered. You did a good job this time, keep it up, and do even better next time! ”
“Yes! ”
…
“Come on, let’s finish the fight we didn’t finish! ”
After the brief interruption, Liang Ruo returned to the original topic: “Come on! ”
“No, why weren’t the police surprised to know we were cultivators? ”
Yan Qingping asked incomprehensibly: “You… no, how long have we been public? ”
“Don’t worry about that, beat me, and I’ll tell you! ”
“Hey, old man, you’re looking for excitement! ”
