“Brother, if we can use our spiritual power, we can go deeper.” Xiao Xiaofan was eager to try.
Xiao Xiaodong said, “Yes!”
The deeper they went into the mine, the thicker the miasma was, and the more frequent the demon corpses appeared. Relatively speaking, the quality of spirit stones also got better and it was said that there are also other treasures in this spirit stone mine.
Originally, Xiao Xiaodong did not allow Xiao Xiaofan to go too deep into the spirit stone mine, but now their situation had changed a little.
Lei Xuan looked at the Forbidden Spirit Ring on his finger full of amazement. The Forbidden Spirit Ring had been studied for thousands of years and it was simply a nemesis of cultivators. He just did not know how Xiao Xiaodong did it. Lei Xuan looked at Xiao Xiaodong, full of amazement.
Lei Xuan, Xiao Xiaofan and Xiao Xiaodong searched the abandoned mine and kept going deeper and deeper.
Under the instruction of Xiao Xiaofan, they found a mine with a lot of medium grade spirit stones and then they began digging it with great joy.
…………
Early one morning, Xiao Xiaofan was startled when he woke up and found two more cultivators in the middle of the mine. He was startled even more when he realized that these two looked exactly the same as the dead bodies he found two days ago.
“Brother,” Xiao Xiaofan panicked and hid behind Xiao Xiaodong.
Lei Xuan didn’t sleep as well as Xiao Xiaofan, so as soon as these two people came in, he found out. However, they were bought by Xiao Xiaodong, so Lei Xuan did not ask any more questions.
“Don’t worry, it’s father and daddy.” Xiao Xiaodong said.
Xiao Xiaofan was full of surprise as he said, “It’s father and daddy?”
Xiao Xiaodong nodded and said, “Yes! But they are disguised.”
“Xiaofan,” Xu Muan shouted with some excitement.
Xiao Xiaofan heard Xu Muan’s voice and somewhat aggressively flung himself into Xu Muan’s arms and wailed.
Xiao Xiaodong looked at his brother who was crying like a little kitten and thought: My brother is really worthless. He loves to cry so much.
“Father, daddy, how did you get here?” Xiao Xiaofan asked.
Xu Muan said indifferently, “Sneaked over.”
“Where is younger brother?” Xiao Xiaofan asked.
“Found someone else to take care of him,” Xu Muan said.
The matter of the jade pendant space was not hidden from Xiao Xiaodong. However, Xu Muan did not intend to tell Xiaofan. It wasn’t because he could not trust his son but because Xiaofan was simple minded. Xu Muan was worried that Xiao Xiaofan would accidentally reveal it.
Lei Xuan looked at Xu Muan and Xiao Jingting and said, “Uncle, do you still have storage rings on you?”
Xu Muan nodded and said, “We snuck here, so our storage rings were not taken away.”
Lei Xuan nodded and said, “That’s good. You should be more careful, uncles. There have been a lot of spies caught outside these two days.”
Xu Muan nodded and said, “I know.”
Xiao Xiaofan suddenly thought of something and said somehow angrily, “Bother, did you already know that father and daddy were coming?”
Xiao Xiaodong nodded and said, “Yes!”
“You knew it and you didn’t tell me,” Xiao Xiaofan said with some grievances.
Xiao Xiaodong helplessly said, “Who made you so stupid?”
Xiao Xiaofan, “…”
“I told you, this roasted meat smelled just like dad’s. It was really dad!” Xiao Xiaofan looked at Xiao Jingting, his eyes full of joy.
“Uncle Xiao, how much do you know about the situation outside?” Lei Xuan asked.
Xiao Jingting smiled bitterly and said, “I only know that there were originally several Golden Core cultivators on the island. But I am not very clear about the situation now.”
Lei Xuan nodded and said, “So that’s how it is!”
After breaking away from the girl surnamed Wang, Xiao Jingting had been hanging out with Xiao Xiaodong and knew not much more than the three young ones.
Xiao Xiaofan suddenly thought of something, “Brother, that medicinal liquid that corrodes the Forbidden Spirit Ring was invented by father, right?”
Xiao Xiaodong nodded and said, “Yes!”
Xiao Xiaofan suddenly understood everything, “That’s it! I knew you had been researching it for so long but there was no progress, but suddenly a finished product appeared. It turned out it was dad who made it. I told you that brother was not that smart.”
Xiao Xiaodong felt offended and said, “What do you mean?”
Xiao Xiaofan smiled with embarrassment and said, “Brother, I didn’t say you weren’t smart, just not that smart.”
Xiao Xiaodong, “…”
…………
“Younger martial brother, it’s been a long time!” Li Liang looked at Xiao Xiaodong and Xiao Xiaofan as he spoke.
Xiao Xiaofan nodded and said, “Elder martial brother, long time no see!”
Li Liang looked at the dirty faces of Xiao Xiaofan and the others and felt a bit strange. Although their clothes were tattered and their faces were dirty, their spirits were really good, much stronger than them.
Li Liang didn’t know that the poison on Xiao Xiaofan and others had been detoxified. With spiritual spring, they didn’t need to fear the miasma in the mine and they were able to cultivate normally. The aura in the mining area was also considered dense, and there was no shortage of spiritual stones, so they lived a good life there.
“Elder martial brother, is there any news from outside?” Xiao Xiaofan asked.
Li Liang nodded and said, “There is.”
“I heard that the Devil Blood Sect originally piled up a warehouse of spirit stones to be shipped out, but there was an accident.”
Xiao Xiaofan couldn’t help but ask, “What kind of accident?”
“There was a fight between a group of people and the Golden Core cultivator on the island over the spirit stones.” Li Liang said somewhat gloatingly. The life of miners was miserable, and now that there was some bad news about Devil Blood sect, it relieved their depression.
“A warehouse full of spirit stones! That’s a lot of spirit stones!” Xiao Xiaofan licked his lips, full of envy.
Li Liang looked at Xiao Xiaofan and said, “Younger martial brother Xiaofan, you are not thinking of trying to sneak into that warehouse of spirit stones, are you?”
Xiao Xiaofan hurriedly shook his head and said, “How could I? Elder material brother, you are thinking too much. In the present situation, even if I was given a warehouse full of spirit stones, I wouldn’t be able to absorb them!”
Xiao Xiaodong lowered his head and thought: A warehouse of spirit stones, just how many would there be? If we get such a batch of spirit stones, then we wouldn’t have to work so hard to dig them up.
