Chapter 741
"Shh, stop talking now, lest the Madam hear you again."
"Tsk! What are you afraid of? Just hear it. This is our Xiahou family, not the Wan family. Our Xiahou family's daughter married into the Wei family. Now the Wei family is going to recommend our young master to the Xianyang Sect. The Xianyang Sect is a big sect with an immortal monarch in charge. If our young master enters the Xianyang Sect, our Xiahou family will be famous not only in Galan City, but also in the entire fairyland."
The servants were talking very loudly, without any intention of concealing their words. Madam Xiahou, who was at the corner, almost bit her lip when she heard it, but she endured it to the end and did not rush out to teach those servants who did not take her seriously a lesson. Instead, she returned to her own yard in frustration.
Madam Xiahou hated her father for not coming forward to support her in time, otherwise she would not be isolated and helpless in the Xiahou family, and even the servants could climb over her head. She also hated the son who crawled out of her belly, because he was a waste with no qualifications. She had been looking forward to him for so long, but he could only bring her humiliation.
Now that her father had not shown up for a long time, there were rumors in the Xiahou Mansion that her father had died unexpectedly. Otherwise, how could he not show up for so many years? Madam Xiahou was also a little flustered when she heard this. Her father was her backer, even if he was not as useful as before. But if her father really died, she would have no backer at all.
But no matter how she tried to message her father, there was no response from the other end, as if he was dead. Could something really have happened?
She had never expected that Wantinggu had already left the Jinling Fairyland long ago. The communicator used at that time was of limited level and could not communicate across domains.
As for the matter of transforming the aptitude of mortals, Madam Xiahou's attitude was no different from that of the servants in the mansion. Not to mention how much it would cost, even if it could be transformed, could it transform into a genius? In any case, it was impossible for the bastard in the mansion to have better talent, so why bother to force transformation.
I just hate that I was not good enough to conceive. Since I gave birth to that evil child more than 20 years ago, there has been no news from me.
Apart from the servants and guards who would mention Madam Xiahou, the masters of the Xiahou family had forgotten about her and were busy sending the most talented child of the Xiahou family to the Xianyang Sect. They had already established good relations with the Wei family, so the next step would be a natural progression.
The Wei family is much stronger than the Xiahou family. It just so happened that a young master of the Wei family fell in love with a girl from the Xiahou family when he went out to gain experience. After returning, he asked his family to come to Galan City to propose marriage. The Xiahou family was extremely excited about this marriage, which they had never dared to think about before, so they sent the girl to the Wei family with a lot of dowry.
The head of the Xiahou family personally sent his youngest son to the Immortal Shuttle and told him, "Your uncle and the people of the Wei family will escort you all the way to the Xianyang Sect. After you enter the Xianyang Sect, practice well and don't always think about home. Your father hopes that you can make a name for yourself in the Xianyang Sect and be accepted as a disciple by a strong man in the sect. The entire Xiahou family will be proud of you."
"Don't worry, Dad. I will make the Xiahou family proud of me, and make you proud of me too! I will lead the Xiahou family out of Galan City!" Xiahou Ting said with high spirits.
"Good! Good! You are dad's good son! Haha..."
Xiahou Ting was extremely proud. Ever since his talent was detected, he knew that he was the most important person in the Xiahou family. As for the useless brother before him, no one knew where Xiahou Ting had thrown him away. He was just a waste, not worthy of him and his father's concern. By the time he had successfully cultivated and returned to Galan City, that waste might have already exhausted his lifespan quietly and died in some corner.
Thinking about him is a waste of your time.
The children of other families in Galan City were all jealous, and some mentioned the mortal child that the Xiahou family had sent away more than 20 years ago.
"Speaking of which, he was a pitiful child. After so many years, no one in the Xiahou family cared about him. It was his grandfather who took pity on him and took him away."
"Yes, the head of the Xiahou family is also cruel. It is inevitable that mortal children are born in our families, but after proper arrangements, they can live a life without worries. Unlike the Xiahou family, they are not so cruel."
"This is a different fate for the same person. Look at how much effort Lu Xiaoxuanxian and his wife put into their child. Their efforts paid off, and now they have finally found a way for their son to enter the path of cultivation."
"That's right. I wonder how much the Tianji Pavilion is offering. Maybe..." Which family doesn't have a mortal child? If the price is not too high and will not cause great harm to their family, it might be worth a try. Not all cultivators are cold-blooded and ruthless.
After being verified by many cultivators, Tianji Pavilion became famous again and expanded its business to various fairy realms, and its reputation became more and more famous.
The sympathetic Yuan Jing still stayed in Feiyan City of Yunhuang Fairyland. He only collected immortal stones and didn't care about the wind and rain outside. The continuous flow of immortal stones made him realize how good this business was. The immortal stones he earned from this business were much more than those from opening a shop.
Qin Zichuan also enjoyed collecting the immortal stones.
Yuan Jing didn't feel that he was losing money by splitting the profits 50-50 with Qin Zichuan. He even made a lot of money because only with the help of Tianji Pavilion could this business be spread all over the fairy world. Otherwise, they could only do business with a few people if they stayed in one place. When this method was thoroughly studied in the future, this business would be almost over.
Only by cooperating with Tianji Pavilion can we maximize the benefits and achieve a win-win situation.
With the immortal stones, Yuan Jing and Yue Chenchu used all their resources when practicing. Yuan Jing's small world itself was a big gold-eater, and could digest as many immortal stones and resources as possible. It was not much better than the dragon clan and other divine beasts. The same was true for Wantinggu and Sanwei, which made Wantinggu experience the feeling of riding a roller coaster.
In addition to practicing in seclusion and refining medicine and weapons, the few of them would occasionally go out for some experience. They would not miss any secret realm or abandoned mansion they knew of. Every time they went out, Yuan Jing would bring the three tails with him, but the little golden dragon would always stay in the secret place of the dragon clan and had not come out yet.
Although he couldn't get out, the dragon clan could get in, so every time Yuan Jing prepared a resource, he would ask the cultivators of the dragon clan to send it in.
When a large amount of immortal stones were sent in for the first time, Ao Xiaojin's first reaction was to quickly cover his storage ring, his two dragon eyes swirling around. He was planning to intercept the immortal stones and send them to Brother Jing when he could leave this damn place.
This time, the Dragon Emperor brought some to this little fellow on his way to the secret place. Seeing the calculating look on his face, he said speechlessly, "You don't think these immortal stones were given to you by me or my clan, do you? What are you thinking? These were brought to you by your brother Jing. I heard that your brother Jing started a business with someone and made a lot of immortal stones."
Tsk tsk, when he heard about this, even he felt envious. This person's ability in cultivating and earning immortal stones is quite amazing. No wonder he could keep Ao Xiaojin so well-fed. When Ao Xiaojin was brought back, the Dragon Emperor had to admit that Ao Xiaojin was well-fed.
Most of the dragons are only interested in coming in and not wanting to leave. Only Ao Xiaojin, a little traitor, would pack up the dragon's things and send them to his brother Jing. It's really weird.
Ao Xiaojin was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Is it really a gift from my brother Jing?" Then he said happily, "I knew my brother Jing was the best. Humph, you have good taste."
The Dragon Emperor felt that talking to this little guy would make him angry. Even if that person had some skills, could he be stronger than him, the Yunhuang Immortal Emperor? "You keep calling Brother Jing all the time. Can you have some ambition of the Dragon Clan? I'm telling you, don't bring shame to the Dragon Clan when you go out in the future."
Ao Xiaojin's eyes rolled around: "I won't fight with someone from the Phoenix Clan every hundred years like you, Dragon Emperor. If it were me, hmm, I could defeat the Phoenix in one go."
The Dragon Emperor once again felt that he would be mad if he talked too much to this kid. Why did he think so hard and personally deliver something to him? He glared at the kid, flicked his sleeves and left. He was too lazy to pay attention to him. He would just stay in this secret place for a while.
Seeing that the Dragon Emperor was about to leave, Ao Xiaojin shouted from behind: "When can I get out? Let me out quickly!"
"Stay here!" Even the Dragon Emperor had disappeared, but his voice could still be heard.
It was Ao Xiaojin's turn to be depressed, but when he looked at the items in the storage ring that Yuan Jing gave him, Ao Xiaojin smiled happily again. He practiced and practiced again, and when he went out, he gave Brother Jing and the three-tailed Xiaohuan a big scare.
But Ao Xiaojin would still hide the good things secretly. After all, this was the secret place of the Dragon Clan. He found several rare treasures and was reluctant to use them, so he kept them to take out for Brother Jing. Of course, he thought he was doing something secret, but he didn't know that it was seen by the Dragon Emperor and Great Elder Ao Liqing, who could only call him a little traitor of the Dragon Clan in private.
It's because Yuan Jing is sincere to this little guy and always thinks of him when he has something good to offer, otherwise how could they turn a blind eye to it?
Several years had passed since the last time the Dragon Emperor appeared before Ao Xiaojin again. This time, Ao Xiaojin's dragon body had grown a lot bigger. The Dragon Emperor expressed his satisfaction. Apart from being concerned about the cultivator outside, Ao Xiaojin's talent and diligence were beyond doubt.
No matter how hard Ao Xiaojin tried, he still wanted to get out: "Let me out now, I want to leave this damn place, I want to see my brother Jing."
"Little guy," the Dragon Emperor sat down and chatted with him leisurely this time, "Do you know how many dragons of the Dragon Clan want to enter the secret place for cultivation? This is the most suitable place for the Dragon Clan to cultivate. Many dragon ancestors have lived here, leaving behind precious inheritance and dragon breath, and also nurturing many natural treasures unique to the Dragon Clan. You actually call this a ghost place. Do you want to be beaten by the dragons of the Dragon Clan when you go out?"
Ao Xiaojin raised his head and said, "That depends on whether they can beat me."
As he spoke, he flew out from a huge pool and transformed into a human form in mid-air. From the appearance of a child at the beginning to a young boy of fourteen or fifteen years old now, the Dragon Emperor was a little annoyed when he saw his long face. When this kid transformed, he also followed his brother's form, and their appearances were somewhat similar.
The Dragon Emperor didn't know that no matter how many worlds Yuan Jing had experienced, his appearance would be somewhat similar in each life, so even if Ao Xiaojin did not transform after coming to the fairyland, he would still have similarities with the current Yuan Jing.
Ao Xiaojin put his hands on his hips. All cultivators of the Dragon Clan were afraid of the Dragon Emperor, but after knowing the story of the Dragon Emperor and the Phoenix Emperor, the Dragon Emperor no longer had any mystery in Ao Xiaojin's eyes: "I want to get out. If you don't let me out, I will..."
"What do you want?"
Ao Xiaojin rolled his eyes a few times and said, "I will cry, I will cry loudly for you to hear!"
The Dragon King almost burst out in anger. What a sin! When did the Dragon Clan produce such a five-clawed golden dragon? Wouldn't it ruin the reputation of the Dragon Clan in the future? Ao Xiaojin knew what he was thinking and would say that the reputation had been ruined since the Dragon King.
But this time the Dragon Emperor's tone was good: "Alright, alright, hearing you cry must be a headache for me, so I'll let you go, but I have a mission for you, don't worry, just listen to me and it won't be too late to leave, it's also related to your brother."
As expected, when Yuan Jing was mentioned, Ao Xiaojin restrained his temper and stopped to listen to what the Dragon Emperor had to say. The Dragon Emperor shook his head speechlessly.
