While waiting for the guy to literally wake up Tianlong started thinking 'I already knew that there are families, or rather clans who control this city, from what I heard from the people walking and talking all around it seems that there are 3 big clans that control the city, but they are not the only super powers in here, there is the 2 sects that don't interfere too much with political stuff but they are definitely there, and also the governor's mansion, they are sent here by the emperor to overlook the other super powers and keep a balance between them in this big city. For now, I don't care about the governor's mansion; all I care about is the clans and the sects. The 3 clans are the Lius, the Hans and the Qings. My target is the Liu clan so I don't have to get involved with the other clans if not necessary. And when it comes to sects I know that there are 2 of them, the Wudang sect and the Kunlun sect, they are both equal in strength, the only difference between them is that the Wudang sect are apothecaries who specialize in making elixirs and pills of all types, while their counterpart, the Kunlun sect, specializes in weapon smithing and craftsmanship. I don't know which one of those this guy belongs to but I guess I'll find out when he wakes up'
And conveniently, Xiao Si woke up just as Tianlong finished his chain of thought.
"I FOUND A GENIUS WHO CAN GO AGAINST THE HEAVENS!!" Xiao Si screamed at the top of his lungs.
People turned around and started looking at him, but they quickly went on their way. Crazy people were all over the place lately.
Xiao Si saw what was happening and got his bearings back. He looked at the young man in front of him and said "Young man, how about your join our sect? You'll have a lot of benefits and we can help you achieve new heights in your cultivation as long as you keep showing the fruits of your talent and hard work, what do you think?"
Tianlong thought to himself 'at least he's a good salesman, but not good enough. It's good that the opportunity presented itself to me but I need to assess the situation and see what sect I'm getting roped into before agreeing to anything'
"This offer is pretty good, but, nothing in this world is for free, and as I said before I'm not of age yet so how are you going to get me into the sect? And even if you manage to do that what sect I am getting into, you never said it wasn't a sect of blood suckers and devil worshippers? Also I've only met like 15 minutes ago and all I've been seeing is you acting crazy so what insurance do I have that you're not lying just to get me to go with you and sexually harass my young body?"
Xiao Si is confused, the attack was super effective.
"No no, young Tianlong please listen to me Wudang sect is a righteous sect, we never hurt anybody all we focus on is improving our cultivation and research pills and elixirs, we are like a family and we always look after each other. Also I'm a teacher a teacher at the Wudang sect why I'm here is because I'm always looking for interesting stuff that makes its way in the common area in this market and also to look for some talents while at it because our sect is recruiting new students so you are lucky, and if you didn't believe me here is my token, it shows that I'm a teacher of the sect, also here takes this referral token, it's for the sect test that will start tomorrow, if you are interested then please come and join us we would love to have such a rare talent" Xiao Si while Handing the referal token.
'Umm…I can't tell if this guy is a moron or is he just stupidly honest? But, at least I got him to give the information I want. And as much as I would love to join the Kunlun sect and quench my thirst for weapon making knowledge, but the Wudang sect is better for now, pills making and selling is a huge business in this city, and that's what I'm direly in need of for now, money'
Tianlong took the token, looked at Xiao Si and said "I'll take up your offer but I want you to know that I still don't trust you old man, you owe me a favor for what you did before"
"Oh yes yes thank you for reconsidering, I'll definitely be more mindful of my behavior in the future, also the referral token is really precious we are only allowed to give to people who we deem are geniuses, so if you go with a referral token you'll be regarded as a vip and not like normal people" Xiao Si said with a happy expression 'Finally a great find, the sect master will definitely reward me for discovering such a genius'
Tianlong knew exactly what the man was thinking so he turned around but before he started walking he said "Mister Xiao Si you remember the favor you owe me right? Make sure to give me 50% of the prize or everybody single soul in this city will knows that you harassed a 6 years old kid who couldn't defend himself in a nasty way"
And he simply disappeared like a ghost leaving behind a really dumbfounded Xiao Si who couldn't understand how such a young man could fully suppress him, play with his emotions, and even read his mind and threaten him so simply.
'This isn't even a genius anymore, he's a monster in a kid's body, I'm not as confident as before, I don't know if bringing him to the sect would be a blessing or a curse'
