Chapter 121
Sun Family’s Convoy.
“Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng must have a mysterious encounter in the forest, or else there would be no reason for these two guys to advance to the seventh level of Qi Practice so quickly.” The Sun family elder was filled with jealousy.
Sun Miaomiao nodded and said, “Yes!”
“Miaomiao, you said that you met Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng in the secret realm.” Sun Miaoyin asked.
Sun Miaomiao nodded and said, “Yes! If it wasn’t for the two of them, I would have been treated as an outcast.” By now, she would already be dead.
Sun Miaomiao couldn’t be more regretful. How long had it been?! Xiao Jingting had already become an existence at the seventh level of Qi Practice.
Her father, who she had always admired, was only at the seventh level of Qi practice! If she had not refused Xiao Jingting, she would now have a husband with the same cultivation as the father she worshipped. How proud she would be?! Elder sister’s stunningly talented husband wouldn’t be able to compare with Xiao Jingting.
Hearing Sun Miaomiao’s words, Sun Miaoyin couldn’t help saying, “Why didn’t you follow them?”
Sun Miaomiao shook her head in regret, “They didn’t let me follow up.”
If she could follow, she naturally would not like to leave them. With two sixth level Qi Practitioners protecting her, she would be more than happy. Unfortunately, Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng were cold to her and didn’t want to take care of her. Although she was their cousin-in-law in name, the relationship between the first and second houses of the Xiao family was very rigid. When the second house was in a downward spiral, the first house didn’t care about these two brothers.
Sun Miaoyin sighed lightly and said, “What a pity. If you followed them, you might also have a mysterious encounter. These two guys, only just advanced to the sixth level of Qi Practice and now advanced to the seventh level so quickly. They must have encountered a great chance.”
“They’re on guard against me.” Sun Miaomiao gritted her teeth. If she had known that Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng had such big luck, she would have begged them. She knew how hard it was for him to find a wife, but she didn’t expect that there was such a thing as a prodigal son coming from behind to catch up.
“Xiao Muhong died in the secret realm this time,” Sun Miaoyin sighed.
This time, the Sun family suffered heavy losses. The sixth level Qi Practitioner that was hard to cultivate was lost inside before he could make a name for himself. Her husband, Zhou Kanghe was able to get back, but it seemed like he was injured.
Counting it all, it was the Xiao family that gained the biggest advantage. There were quite a few deaths in the Xiao family, but Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng were still alive. If those with mediocre qualifications died, in a short while, there would be a new batch of replacements taking over.
Sun Miaomiao frowned. During this time, her feelings toward Xiao Muhong became more and more indifferent. Knowing that Xiao Muhong was dead, Sun Miaomiao didn’t feel much sadness, instead, she felt relieved.
“The second house of the Xiao family is going to rise thoroughly. It’s meaningless for you to stay in the Xiao family. I think it’s better for you to divorce Xiao Muhong and go back to the Sun family,” Sun Miaoyin said.
Sun Miaomiao nodded and said, “Alright.” During this period of time, the first house was completely suppressed and Xiao Muhong died. If she now separated from Xiao Muhong and left the first house, things would not be too difficult.
“That guy Xu Muan is really lucky!” Sun Miaoyin said. She always thought that she was the one who married the best man in the Desert City, but now it seemed that it was Xu Muan who married the best man. His husband was already at the seventh level of Qi Practice and he was good at farming.
Sun Miaomiao gritted her teeth and said, “Xiao Jingting, this guy, looks devoted, but in fact, he is very double-minded. He liked me so much but changed just in a few days. Now that Xiao Jingting has advanced to the seventh level of Qi Practice, it’s not clear whether he still wants to live with Xu Muan, a haggard-faced Ger.”
Although Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan supported each other through a rather difficult time, there were still many couples in this world who could share a bed but not the riches. Xiao Jingting was now at the seventh level of Qi Practice so Xu Muan was not a match for Xiao Jingting!
…………
“Dad is back, dad is back.” Xiao Xiaofan jumped around.
Xiao Jingting stepped out of the carriage and picked up Xiao Xiaofan who had just pounced on him. “Oh, so heavy! I can’t carry you anymore.”
Xiao Xiaofan’s face blushed. “I didn’t eat much. I am not so heavy. Not heavy!”
Xiao Jingting looked at Xiao Xiaofan’s shy appearance and laughed. Not having seen him for a while, his little son learned how to be shy.
When Xu Muan saw Xiao Jingting, he couldn’t hide his excitement. “I heard that you’re at the seventh level of Qi Practice.” One could become an elder in Xiao family at the sixth level of Qi Practice, so Xiao Jingting’s cultivation of the seventh level of Qi Practice was sufficient enough for him to be an elder.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes!” However, when he went out this time, his horizons broadened a lot and he didn’t want to stay in the Desert City. He was still young, so he naturally wanted to travel around.
His strength at this point might be considered good in Desert City, but when compared to the Marquis’ house boundary, it wasn’t much. If he was stronger, he would have slapped Ouyang Mingyue when she called out to him. Fortunately, Ouyang Mingyue didn’t see him clearly when he picked the Illusory Snow Lotus, otherwise it would have been much more dangerous.
“You have advanced to the sixth level of Qi Practice?” Xiao Jingting looked at Xu Muan and said.
Xu Muan nodded and said, “Yes! It’s all thanks to you!” When Xiao Jingting left, he left spirit spring water, spirit stones as well as spirit grasses, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to advance so easily. After Xu Muan advanced, he stayed in the countryside so no one in the city knew about it.
Xu Muan took out 160,000 taels of silver and said, “This is a beverage store’s income from this period of time.”
“This much?” Xiao Jingting was a little surprised.
Xu Muan laughed and said, “Not much! It’s only a hundred thousand taels.”
“You’re so capable! I originally thought I would go out of business,” Xiao Jingting said.
“It’s not so easy for a business to go bankrupt.” Xu Muan smiled, not mentioning in the slightest how hard it was to keep the beverage store open during this time. “Now that you’re at the seventh level of Qi Practice, you’ll have more places to use this money in the future.”
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “That’s right!”
