At Green Cloud Immortal Sect.
Xiao Jinting asked Xiao Jingfeng, “Brother, what’s up?”
Xiao Jingfeng said, “I want to go back to the Barbarian Continent, so I like to have your advice.”
Xiao Jinting paused. He felt complicated with the Xiao family.
He was not the host. When facing the parents of the host, he always felt like he was a thief showing off, so he had deliberately ignored them.
In Xiao Jinting’s opinion, he had done a lot for the Xiao family, and he didn’t own them anything.
“In fact, I came to the Cloud Continent because of our parents,” Xiao Jingfeng hesitated and said.
Xiao Jinting looked at him curiously and waited patiently.
After Xiao Jinting left the Barbarian Continent, he gave Xiao Jingfeng some pills, with the help of which Xiao Jingfeng and Mu Shuyu made rapid progress in their cultivation. As a result, Xiao Xiaofu had been advancing fast in his cultivation since he was small.
When Xiao Jinting left, Xiao Qingyan was saved but with impaired foundation and thus made slow progress in his cultivation.
Xiao Qingyan got jealous when he saw Xiao Jingfeng’s family advance quickly, so he came to cause trouble a few times. However, he couldn’t have an upper hand after Xiao Jingfeng advanced to Establishment Foundation.
Xiao Qingyan knew that he could get nowhere, so he pinned his hopes on his two sons. Therefore, a problem came up.
The Establishment Foundation Pills left by Xiao Jinting were not sufficient. Most cultivators would need two to three pills to advance to Establishment Foundation.
When Xiao Xiaofu was going to advance to Establishment Foundation, Xiao Jingfeng had only one pill left.
He had saved the Establishment Foundation Pill for Xiao Xiaofu. Xiao Qingyan asked his parents to force Xiao Jingfeng to turn in the pill.
Xiao Jingfeng was not a fool. He would not give the last Establishment Foundation Pill to Xiao Qingyan’s son and delay his own son’s cultivation.
His parents felt sympathy with their eldest son, who didn’t make any progress while their second son prospered. They kept pressing Xiao Jingfeng to care about his elder brother instead of focusing on his own family.
Xiao Jingfeng wouldn’t agree. He gave Xiao Xiaofu the pill. At the end, when Xiao Xiaofu established the foundation, Xiao Jingfeng’s parents ganged up with Xiao Qingyan and came to make trouble.
As a result, Xiao Xiaofu failed to establish the foundation. Xiao Qingyan ridiculed them, saying Xiao Xiaofu was useless and failed to establish the foundation after taking the pill. He mocked that if his son, Xiao Yuefeng, could have the pill, he would definitely advance to Establishment Foundation.
Enraged, Xiao Jingfeng left the Xiao family with Mu Shu and Xiao Xiaofu.
After leaving the Xiao family, Mu Shuyu took out another Establishment Foundation Pill. When he established the foundation, Xiao Jingfeng gave him three pills. Mu Shuyu lied that he had used up the pills, but he saved one for Xiao Xiaofu.
After taking the second Establishment Foundation Pill, Xiao Xiaofu made the advancement.
Xiao Jingfeng rubbed his hands and said awkwardly, “It’s normal that Father and Mother are angry. Most of the Establishment Foundation Pills were taken by my family.”
“Brother, you don’t have to feel guilty. When I gave you the pills, I told you that they were for you. If they had been for the whole family, I would have given them to Father. Why should I give it to you? Please don’t feel guilty. You don’t own them anything,” said Xiao Jinting lightly.
Xiao Jinting didn’t like Xiao Qingyan, nor did he respect the host’s parents, who always sided with Xiao Qingyan. That was why he didn’t go back to the Barbarian Continent these years.
“That’s right, but in my heart, I always feel…” When his parents asked Xiao Jingfeng to hand over the pills, Xiao Jingfeng refused with guilt. After all, they were Xiao Jinting’s pills. Xiao Jingfeng was his second brother, but he thought his parents were closer to Xiao Jinting.
“Brother, it was my fault. When I left, I should’ve made it clear that those pills were for you, and my parents and Xiao Qingyan had nothing to do with them.”
…
Xiao Jingfeng left after he had a long talk with Xiao Jinting.
Xu Muan looked at Xiao Jinting and asked, “What did your brother say?”
“He wants to go back to the Barbarian Continent.”
Xu Muan sighed and said, “It’s time to go back there and take a look. A few days ago, Ouyang Jinyue came to say that there are unusual activities in Barbarian Continent recently. It might not be peaceful.”
“What happened?” asked Xiao Jinting.
“She didn’t tell me what exactly happened. It seems that an earthquake in the Barbarian Continent has unearthed a small historical site.”
“This kind of small historical site would not cause any commotion in the Cloud Continent, but it shows up in Barbarian Continent and attracts many cultivators from other areas, including some Golden Cores.”
“You know that cultivation levels rule. Those insignificant Golden Cores from the Cloud Continent are like gods in the Barbarian Continent and decide the fates of the cultivators there.”
“If that’s the case, let’s go back and take a look,” Xiao Jinting thought for a moment and said.
Xu Muan nodded and said, “Okay.”
“Xiaofu told me that after we made our fame, Xiao Linfeng and Wang Lu got in touch with the Xiao family again. They have been overbearing these years,” said Xiao Jinting.
After all, Xiao Jinting was not the host, so he called Xiao Linfeng and Wang Lu by name.
Xu Muan sighed. When a tree grew bigger, withered leaves were inevitable.
“What do you think?” asked Xu Muan.
Xiao Jinting smiled bitterly and said, “What can I do?” The host’s parents were not kind-hearted, and the eldest brother likes to stir up troubles. “I’ll just go and take a look. If there are no problems with the Barbarian Continent, I won’t do anything.”
