Chapter 543
When Xu Muan came out, he met several concubines of Xu Han. The women pointed at him and gossiped angrily at the sight of him.
“Is that Xu Muan? I heard that he has just been released.”
“I heard that the Elder wanted him to marry our husband, but he refused. I wonder what kind of man he is looking for. He doesn’t want to marry such a genius as our husband.”
“He’s a cultivator ascending from the Spiritual World, so he is short-sighted. When he knows what he has missed, he will regret it.”
“The inside information says that the Elder is sending him to Golden Stone Town, where the Immortal Qi is scarce. Many cultivators don’t make any advancement when they get there. What a pity. I heard that he has a Fire Yang physique. Now that he is sent there, he might not be able to advance to Real Immortal.”
“He thinks he’s in the Spiritual World. He thinks our husband can’t live without him. What an idiot.”
…
Listening to them, Xu Muan gave a cold smile. Xu Han was nothing compared to Xiao Jinting.
Xu Han’s concubines treasured Xu Han. As far as Xu Muan was concerned, Xu Han stayed in the Immortal World longer than Xiao Jinting. After Xiao Jinting stayed in the Immortal World for several hundred years, he would be more powerful than Xu Han.
Xu Muan thought of Xiao Jinting and started to worry about him. He seldom mentioned Xiao Jinting to anyone because he was afraid that the concubines of Xu Han would hurt Xiao Jinting if they knew about him.
After he sold the weapon in a hurry and sent Xiao Jinting the Immortal Crystal, he was grounded. He had been isolated from the outside world for years and unable to gather any information.
Suddenly, something came across his mind. Xu Muan took out a Communication Jade pendant, which glowed when he opened the box.
Xu Muan looked at the glowing pendant and felt excited.
He quickly collected himself and went back to his room.
At the inn.
Xiao Jinting looked at the glowing pendant and felt excited. “Muan has been released.”
Flame scratched its neck and said lazily, “What’s the use of it? I thought your spouse had become rich, and you could benefit from it. It turns out I am wrong. Your spouse doesn’t want to marry the toy boy of the Xu family, and he is going to be sent to a remote place. How wretched.”
Xiao Jinting looked at Flame and said indifferently, “I’m glad.”
He thought, “The Xu house is not a safe place, and it’s good that Muan leaves there. Xu Han has one hundred and nine concubines, and it’s said that thirty-seven of them died. I can tell from the casualties that the concubines of Xu Han compete with each other fiercely.”
After Xu Muan took the task badge from the Xu family, he set off.
He was a newcomer, and no one saw him off.
As far as the Xu family was concerned, Xu Muan was overconfident and wretched.
As far as Xu Muan was concerned, the outside world was free, and he felt relaxed after he left the Xu house.
After Xu Muan set off, Xiao Jinting went to wait for him on the way to Golden Stone Town.
Three days later, with the help of the communication jade pendants, Xu Muan met Xiao Jinting finally.
When Xiao Jinting saw Xu Muan, he felt they hadn’t seen each other for ages. Xu Muan sprang into Xiao Jinting’s arms in excitement.
Xiao Jinting embraced Xu Muan, feeling relieved. “I’m sorry for the hardships you endured.”
He felt guilty. When he got the Immortal Crystal, he was only thinking of improving his strength before going to see Xu Muan. He didn’t know that Xu Muan suffered so much for the one million pieces of Immortal Crystal.
Xu Muan shook his head. “It doesn’t matter. I heard that you were taken by a female devil who forced you to grow plants. I was worried about you.”
Xiao Jinting said, “I’m fine. I’m good at growing plants. You know that.”
Xu Muan nodded and smiled. “Yes, I know. I always know about that.”
…
When Xiao Jinting and Xu Muan were chatting, they heard someone sneering. “I was wondering why you’d rather go to a remote place than marry my husband. It turns out that you have a man outside.”
Xiao Jinting leaned to Xu Muan and asked, “What’s that?”
Xu Muan said, “She’s Liu Piaopiao, the one hundred and seventh concubine of Xu Han.”
He thought, “Liu Piaopiao is unreasonable. She flew into a rage when Xu Han was going to marry me and threatened to kill me. Now that I don’t want to marry Xu Han, she thinks I’m playing hard to get. She is displeased that I refused Xu Han.”
Flame laughed. “You are the man outside.” Xiao Jinting wanted to kill it.
Xiao Jinting looked at Liu Piaopiao and thought that she was mean. He was Xu Muan’s spouse.
He asked curiously, “Do you have any grudges with her?”
Xu Muan said, “She was cross with me because she thought I stole her husband. Now I quit, but she is angry with me.”
Xiao Jinting frowned. “She’s odd.” He sympathized with Xu Han, who had so many unreasonable concubines.
Liu Piaopiao put her hands on her hips and glared at them. “Xu Muan, when did you hook up with this guy? You are blind. You give up on Xu Han because of this worthless toy boy. However, you look a good match.”
Xiao Jinting was speechless.
Xiao Jinting said, “We are married.”
Liu Piaopiao looked at Xu Muan in anger and said, “Xu Muan, you are married, but you tried to seduce Xu Han. You are shameless.”
Xu Muan looked at her and said, “Miss Liu, you’ve got me wrong. I only met Xu Han a few times, and I didn’t seduce him.” The ancestor of the Xu family saw that his special physique could benefit Xu Han and tried to put them together. Xu Muan could tell that Xu Han didn’t like him much.
Liu Piaopiao sneered. “I don’t believe you.”
Xu Muan said, “Miss Liu, I have to go to work. Goodbye.”
Liu Piaopiao said in anger, “Are you leaving? Give me back the weapon that you snatched from me.”
Xu Muan shook his head and sighed. “I’m sorry, but I lost the weapon.”
Liu Piaopiao said ferociously, “Don’t fool me. You sold it.”
