Chapter 300
Xiao Jinting got out of the jade space and saw that Xu Muan was alone.
“Where are they?” Xiao Jinting asked.
“All of them went to hunt demonic beasts. Xiaojin tagged along.” Xu Muan smiled.
“Is that all right?” Xiao Jinting muttered.
Xu Muan said indifferently, “Don’t underestimate them. They have all advanced to Golden Core, and they don’t need your protection. They can support you now.”
Xiao Jinting smiled awkwardly and thought to himself, “It’s worthwhile to bring up these chaps.” They gave him the spiritual stones that they earned from selling the demonic beasts materials after they kept those for their cultivation. He felt delighted and shy to be supported by the young men.
“What a bunch of hardworking brats.” He felt a bit ashamed that as a father for sitting idle.
“They have made a name these years,” Xu Muan said.
“What is it?” Xiao Jinting asked with interest.
“The Four Handsome Kings,” Xu Muan said.
Xiao Jinting said, “Oh, it sounds good…” After his sons grew up, they were handsome. Chen Xu and Lei Xuan also looked good.
“This is nice, and there is another vivid name,” Xu Muan said.
Xiao Jinting asked, “What is it?”
Xu Muan: “The Four Kings of Tornado.”
Xiao Jinting asked, “How did they get such a name?”
Xu Muan shrugged and said, “It is said that every time they go on a hunt, the land is destroyed like suffering a tornado.”
Xiao Jinting was speechless.
…
“By the way, Ye Jinlan has come,” Xu Muan said.
Xiao Jinting squinted and asked in confusion, “What does she come for?”
Xu Muan shook his head. “I don’t know. She says she wants to discuss business with you.”
“Do you know what business it is?” asked Xiao Jinting.
Xu Muan shook his head and said, “I don’t know, but I think it has something to do with the qualification review of the Business Alliance.”
Xiao Jinting narrowed his eyes and said, “She shouldn’t choose me for the review.” After all, he was only at the medium level of Golden Core. Usually the advanced Golden Core would be preferred in such an important competition, even if Xiao Jinting did not think that he was inferior.
“I’m not sure, but I heard that a new rising Hong family seems to be coveting the Ye family’s seat, and the advanced Golden Core cultivator whom the Ye family has been trying to recruit went to join the Hong family,” Xu Muan smiled and said.
Xiao Jinting blinked and said, “So the Ye family came to ask me to replace the Golden Core…”
Xu Muan hesitated for a moment and said, “This is just my guess. We will only know after we meet her.”
…
Ye Fang sat in the living room with a frown.
“Miss, Xiao Jinting is insolent.” Ye Fang said irritably.
Ye Fang sighed inwardly. ‘The Ye family is going down the hill. We used to be respected wherever we went.’
“He is a Golden Core, and he has so many Gold Core cultivators with him. It doesn’t matter if he puts us off,” Ye Jinlan said lightly.
Ye Fang said in confusion, “Why do so many Gold Core cultivators suddenly appear?”
Although Golden Core cultivators were not as rare as Nascent Soul cultivators, it was not easy to cultivate one. However, the cultivators with Xiao Jinting had advanced to Golden Core one after another.
In the beginning, people did not know why phenomena kept appearing on the hill where Xiao Jinting lived. After Xiao Xiaofan and others had advanced to Golden Core, it finally dawned on many cultivators that the phenomena were signs of Golden Core advancement.
When they realized that, ordinary forces could do nothing about it as there were many Golden Core cultivators on the hill.
“Miss, do you think Xiao Jinting has a secret method to advance to Golden Core?” Ye Jinlan asked.
Ye Jinlan used to think that Xiao Jinting might have got some kind of mysterious method that could help advance to Golden Core. In fact, there were indeed some secret methods that could create False Golden Core cultivators, who were much stronger than Foundation Establishment cultivators but much weaker than a real Golden Core. Moreover, it was difficult for the False Golden Core to advance to the next level.
However, Xiao Xiaodong and the others were much more powerful than a normal Golden Core.
“I don’t think so.” Ye Jinlan clenched her fists tightly. The Ye Family was losing its influence, and Xiao Jinting had become powerful. Even if he had a secret method, she couldn’t snatch it.
…
Xiao Jinting came out.
When Ye Jinlan saw him, she smiled gently. “Mr. Xiao, you’re really a genius. You’re young and now you are at the medium level of Golden Core.”
Xiao Jinting smiled and said, “I’m not young.” He gave a rough calculation and found that he was over forty. He suddenly felt time flew like an arrow. The age of forty was not young on the Earth, but it was nothing in the cultivation world.
“I come to ask for your favor,” Ye Jinlan said.
Xiao Jinting looked at her and said lightly, “Miss Ye, please tell me.”
“Mr. Xiao, I’m sure you know about the competition of the Business Alliance,” Ye Jinlan said.
Xiao Jinting nodded and said, “I’ve heard of it.”
“In the competition, any family who covets the Ye Family’s seat will come up to challenge us. Best of three,” Ye Jinlan said.
Xiao Jinting nodded and said, “Miss Ye, are you inviting me to participate.”
Ye Jinlan frowned and said, “In fact, I like to invite you to be a substitute.”
