Chapter 3176: Let the Tall Ones Deal With It

As expected, planes definitely weren’t that easy to obtain.

This kind of situation had to stay contained in one plane.

If it spread to other planes, it’d be a full-blown disaster.

Good thing she left early. This kind of thing was beyond her.

When the sky falls, let the tall ones deal with it.

Hahaha…

Time to go cultivate.

Ning Shu stood at the entrance to the ordinance space.

After getting squished flat and round, she arrived in the City of Water.

She went to a restaurant, ordered some food, and ate while trying to comprehend the water ordinance.

The ordinance fluctuations here weren’t very strong, but Ning Shu didn’t comprehend even a bit.

For a moment, she considered courting death by going outside the city to try.

But she knew her limits, so she quietly poked at her pastries.

After eating, Ning Shu wandered around.

She felt that in this city, some spots had stronger ordinance presence, while others were weak.

A lot of task-takers couldn’t leave the city, so they cultivated in the stronger areas inside the city.

But those places were taken by the powerful.

With her current strength, Ning Shu couldn’t compete.

Even standing in spots with slightly stronger ordinance power made her soul hurt.

While wandering, Ning Shu spotted a consulting room?

A consulting room?

Could it be the silver-haired guy’s consulting room?

Did he actually open a franchise?

Ning Shu thought about it for a moment, then walked in. A refined fragrance hit her—probably incense.

The decor was just like the consulting room she’d seen in the fabricated space.

Ning Shu took a deep breath.

The silver-haired man probably wasn’t here. Ning Shu took a deep inhale of the scent and planned to leave before he asked her for money.

Just as she turned around, the silver-haired man came out from the back room, lifting the curtain, a book in hand.

He sat down, placed the book in front of him, and asked, “What’s your question?”

Ning Shu had no questions. She just came in to look.

But she didn’t dare ask anything. She only had one free question left out of the original three.

She pressed her lips together tightly, waved her hand, and made to leave.

“Settle the consultation fee,” said the silver-haired man. “One point token.”

Ning Shu: …

Damn, seriously?

“That much?” A point token was ten million points!

“Everyone who comes here is an ultra task-taker. The questions are difficult, so the fees are high.”

“Knowledge is power—and money.”

“I didn’t even ask anything.” Total scam. She swore never to step into this place again. The fee started as soon as you stepped in?

Ning Shu just wanted to roll her eyes.

She paid the consultation fee and left right away, not even bothering to argue.

She didn’t say a word to the silver-haired man. If she chatted even a little, she might end up having to sell 2333 to pay the bill.

The silver-haired man watched her leave. With no other customers, he picked up his book again, lifted the curtain, and disappeared.

Ning Shu found a spot where the ordinance wasn’t too strong and sat down to comprehend it.

She sat right by the roadside. Other people were also sitting along the road.

Some didn’t have enough faith or merit points to afford an inn, so they just sat in the street to comprehend.

Ning Shu sat down, calmed her mind, and started to comprehend. She felt like she was floating in water.

Then she leaned against the wall and fell asleep. She had a really comfortable nap. When she woke up, others were still sitting upright in meditation, eyes closed, deep in comprehension.

Ning Shu felt sheepish. She wiped the corner of her mouth and sat up straight to start comprehending again.

Water is the source of life. It nourishes everything. It’s flexible, the softest thing—and it can also be the hardest.
