Chapter 50 - Debt

Translation: Aerial Rain Translation (aerialrain.com) by koffeam

At every city in Three Thousand Worlds, there was an office of Cultivators Alliance. Similar to Medical Cultivators Alliance, they wouldn’t interfere in the internal affairs of big sects, but would help solve the problems and mediate conflicts between cultivators——including debt settlement.

Meng Qi couldn’t find Lu Qingran, so she went to the Cultivators Alliance with the IOU marked with Lu Qingran’s spiritual sense. She only needed to hand the IOU over to the alliance, and they would collect the debt on her behalf, taking ten percent face value as the fee.

The Cultivators Alliance in Huajiang Manor was located in the eastern part of the city, not far away from Ruyi Inn. Meng Qi walked in and stated her business with the man in charge. The man took the IOU from Meng Qi and saw the amount written on it. He was a bit surprised. The man raised his eyes and glanced at Meng Qi. The girl was just a Foundation Establishment cultivator. However, she had an IOU of three ninth-grade and 500 eight grade spirit stones?

The man quickly hid his surprise. Without asking further, he said: “According to the rules, the alliance will take ten percent of the IOU’s value as the fee.”

“I know.” Meng Qi nodded, “When can I get the money?”

The auction would be held in two days. The price of Blazing Feather was on the scale of the hundreds of ninth-grade spirit stones. To be honest, what Lu Qingran owed her was just a drop in the bucket. However, even a small amount was better than nothing. She had to gather as much money as possible.

“If you need it quickly, there is an extra fee of one hundred eighth-grade spirit stones.”

“Alright.” Meng Qi nodded, “Can I get it in one day?”

“You may come again tomorrow evening.” The man then proceeded through the procedure and let Meng Qi marked her spiritual sense on the IOU.

“Thank you.” Meng Qi handed back the IOU to the man and left the alliance office. What else could she do? Meng Qi stopped near the city center and fell into deep contemplation. To earn enough spiritual stones in a short time, what else could she do? Refining Beiming pill? But the price wouldn’t surpass the last auction. Even if she doubled or tripled the quantity, it wouldn’t fetch enough——a few hundred eighth-grade spirit stones would not help much.

Meng Qi stared blankly at the sky. The names of the pills that she could refine at this moment flashed quickly through her mind. She knew that if she was willing to sell the method to imbue spells into medicines, she would be able to get a large sum of money instantly.

But she must not!

Although Meng Qi also contributed to the research, the arrays needed for the method were mainly her Master’s creation. Without Master, there was no way she could achieve it. Master was a great expert in array, and no one else would have so many fantastic ideas and such deep knowledge. Meng Qi was very grateful that the man was willing to teach her many things. That’s why she was not qualified to sell the method.

Without selling Master’s arrays, what else could she do…

Meng Qi calculated the contents of her storage space. She was just a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage. Except for spirit stones, there was nothing valuable in her possessions. Even if she forced Qin Xiumo to pay off his debts, it was still far from enough.

“What makes you so worry?” Qin Xiumo asked. He has been waiting outside and saw Meng Qi came out of the building with a deep frown, seemingly at a loss. “Is it because your spirit stones aren’t enough?” He guessed.
