Chapter 498: Wives and Daughters Are Bullied

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Hundred Spirit Holy Land, market.

There were many bamboo buildings and people coming and going. There were high-end and grand businesses, cramped and remote small shops, and simple stalls… Everywhere was filled with the smoke and fire of secular life.

On the bustling street.

Gu Xinyue, Wen Zhiyun, and Shen Qingyi brought their daughters to the market to buy ingredients.

Gu Xinyue had three daughters.

Wen Zhiyun had two daughters.

Shen Qingyi had three daughters.

There were as many as eleven people in total. They were very conspicuous walking on the slightly crowded street.

Especially the eight daughters who were filled with spiritual energy. Wherever they went, they attracted the attention of almost all the passers-by.

At the same time, many passers-by looked at their three mothers strangely.

That was because their three mothers had disguised their beautiful faces as ordinary. Everyone was very surprised that such an ordinary woman could give birth to such a cute daughter.

“Sister Shen, Sister Wen, the marketplace of the Holy Land is so secular. It’s more down-to-earth than the marketplaces of most sects in the Lower Realm. It’s very interesting.”

Gu Xinyue looked at the bustling street and sighed from the bottom of her heart.

Shen Qingyi smiled faintly and said, “Perhaps this is returning to simplicity. The higher your cultivation, the more you pay attention to the experience of life instead of blindly cultivating.”

Wen Zhiyun also smiled and said, “That’s indeed the case. 1 heard from my husband that after one’s cultivation reaches the Immortal realm, one no longer needs to sit cross-legged every day to refine and absorb spiritual qi. Instead, they need to experience the various states of life and pursue enlightenment. That’s why these Immortal realm cultivators in the Upper Realm returned to their original state.”

The three of them chatted as they walked. They were not in a hurry to buy ingredients. Instead, they waited for Chen An to come and look for them to buy together.

The entire process was unhurried and leisurely.

“Mother, 1 want to eat that fruit!”

Chen Yike stopped in front of a shop selling spiritual fruits and pointed at a spiritual fruit inside as he shouted.

She saw a very big red fruit on the display table of the shop. She could smell the fragrance coming from the fruit and her mouth watered.

“Mother, I want to eat that red fruit too!”

Wen Zhiyun’s youngest daughter, Chen Shiying, raised her little face slightly and shouted after the silly sister.

When Gu Xinyue and Shen Qingyi’s daughters saw this, they immediately expressed their childlike mentality vividly. They also shouted that they wanted to eat that red fruit.

Seeing that their daughters all wanted to eat, the three mothers naturally brought them over to buy.

However, she had eight daughters, but there was only one red fruit on the display stage.

“Shopkeeper, is there only one such red fruit for sale? Is there anything else? My eight daughters want to eat it.”

Wen Zhiyun walked into the shop and talked to an old man sitting in an old chair with his eyes closed.

The old man didn’t even open his eyes and lazily replied,

“Madam, this Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit is a rare thing. It’s already very rare to have one to sell. I’m the only one selling it on this street. Only I’ve just taken it out and placed it on the table. If you come later, it will definitely be bought.”

“There’s only one…”

Wen Zhiyun was also in a dilemma. This Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit was big, but one fruit was divided among eight daughters. It was not enough to eat at all. At most, she could only taste it lightly.

However, there was nothing they could do if it was not enough. It was better than everyone not having anything to eat.

“Do you want this Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit? If you do, take it away with a low-grade immortal crystal.”

The old man’s voice was still lazy.

Immortal crystals were the currency of the Upper Realm. They were crystals of a higher level than spirit stones.

A low-grade immortal crystal was worth 10,000 top-grade spirit stones.

“That expensive?”

Wen Zhiyun was also shocked by the price of this fruit. Just an ordinary-looking spiritual fruit cost 10,000 top-grade spirit stones. This made her, who was from the Lower Realm, feel that it was not worth it.

The old man opened his eyes slightly and saw the expression on Wen Zhiyun’s face. He said indifferently to her,

“This Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit is normally sold at this price. I didn’t cheat you. If you don’t believe me, you can ask around. If 1 cheat you, you can bring people to wreck my shop.”

“Look at your daughter. She’s already so hungry. Buy it for her.”

“A low-grade immortal crystal is not very expensive.”

Seeing that Chen Yike was greedy, the old man used this silly foodie to put pressure on Wen Zhiyun.

Wen Zhiyun knew the old man’s intentions, but unfortunately, her eight daughters all wanted to eat it. She could only pinch her nose, take out a low-grade immortal crystal, and throw it to the old man.

“Shopkeeper, you’d better not trick me. My husband is quite capable in the Holy Land.”

“How can that be? When 1 come out to do business, I only talk about the word ‘sincere’.”

The old man took the immortal crystals and said with a smile.

Wen Zhiyun rolled her eyes at him angrily, but she was not naive enough to believe what a businessman said.

He even said the word “sincere”?

Did he know that all businessmen were black-hearted?

It was more like a lie…

Wen Zhiyun cursed in her heart and reached out to pick up the red fruit on the display table.

However, just as her hand was about to touch the fruit, a fair hand suddenly reached over and snatched it away before she could.

At some point, a woman with a child appeared on the other side of the display stage.

The woman was wearing a seven-colored dress and a silk crown encrusted with jewels. Her aura was very luxurious.

The child’s clothes, pants, and boots were all high-level artifacts. They were not cheap.

The woman took the Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit that Wen Zhiyun had just bought without permission and unhurriedly took out a low-grade immortal crystal and threw it to Wen Zhiyun. She said in a domineering tone,

“I want this Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit of yours. 1’11 return you a low-grade immortal crystal.”

“What do you mean?”

Wen Zhiyun did not take the immortal crystals that were thrown over and let them fall to the ground with a crisp sound. Her slender eyebrows frowned slightly.

The woman’s frown was deeper than hers, but it quickly eased. She turned to sneer disdainfully.

“Why? Do you think it’s too little? If you think it’s too little, 1’11 give you two more. Is three enough?”

With that, she took out two low-grade immortal crystals and casually threw them at Wen Zhiyun’s feet. It was extremely insulting.

Shen Qingyi couldn’t stand it anymore and said coldly,

“I’m sorry, this is not a matter of money. This is a matter of first come, first served. We’ve already paid for this Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit. Please return it to us.”

“First come, first served? Buy it first. I still have to get this Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit first!”

The woman’s face was filled with provocation. She did not intend to be reasonable. It was obvious that she wanted to bully the three of them.

Seeing that this woman was so unreasonable, Gu Xinyue could only look at the old man who had been watching the show in front of her and say to him, “Shopkeeper, we’ve already paid for this Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit. Come and judge.”

Before the old man could speak, the woman beat him to it. “Reason? I’m the reasonable one here!”

After saying that, she took out three low-grade immortal crystals and threw them to the old man. She said to him, “I obtained this Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit first. Who do you think it belongs to?!”

“It’s yours, it’s yours. This Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit is definitely yours.” The old man happily caught the three low-grade immortal crystals that were thrown over and grinned from ear to ear.

Shen Qingyi couldn’t help but scold, “You greedy dog!”

Unfortunately, the old man did not care at all. If he was scolded, so be it. As long as the money was in place, it was fine.

“Let’s go, Xiaobao. Come home with Mother to eat the Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit.” The woman said proudly.

When she held her son’s hand and left, she did not forget to look at Wen Zhiyun provocatively.

Wen Zhiyun was already angry. Now that the woman was looking at her provocatively, her anger was instantly ignited.

With a cold expression, she quickly walked towards the woman and reached out to grab the Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit in the woman’s hand. She said bluntly, “Give me the Abyssal Fire-Bathing Fruit!”

When the woman saw her coming over to snatch it, she immediately raised her hand and slapped her.

Pah!

A crisp slap sounded.

In an instant, the entire shop fell into a dead silence.
