Ahqing looked at the "Supreme mentor" in front of her and felt that her methods were oddly familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere before...
"By the way, you didn't come up with this money-making scheme after a few months of training in some pyramid scheme den, right?"
She asked suspiciously—this approach, the way of speaking, all seemed very much like the pyramid schemes described online. Except she had a trump card, making everyone more than willing to comply.
Ahqing was just making a probing remark, never expecting the mentor's face to change dramatically as she asked in surprise, "H-how did you know?"
Oh my!
It's really true... with that, the three of them laughed.
Truly, schemes around the world share the same origin.
At this moment, everyone in the room resumed their "cultivation," and the surroundings were still foggy. In Ahqing's eyes, the increasingly dense yellow fog rolled towards her in waves, although separated by a Barrier, it still felt somewhat unpleasant.
