Chapter 101
Luo Ling used his fan to cover his smile. If his friend hasn’t fallen yet, he’s bound to fall soon.
When Ouyang HanShuang looked over, Luo Ling winked. He received a glare in return. He curled his lips up in interest. This HanShuang beauty was like a kitten demon. When she was happy, she’ll show her belly for you to scratch. When she wasn’t happy, she’ll swipe her claws. But she was so cute!
Ouyang HanShuang was made speechless due to the smiling peacock. She once again gave him an expression of disdain.
XunMi and GongZi Su’s exchange did not go unnoticed by Liu family’s husband and wife couple.
Madam Liu, Fu XinZhi felt happy yet a bit complicated. Knowing that there was someone that will take care of her daughter made her happy. But she knew who the other party was. This was a renowned cultivator. Apart from cultivation, he didn’t care about anything else. Now seeing the two gaze at each other, she didn’t know if it was good news or bad.
Liu HuiRan was surprised, then joyous. If Liu family could ally with GongZi Su through marriage, they would be raising their status to new heights. Seeing that this daughter’s cultivation ascend and even become involved with GongZi Su, he decided to reluctantly accept her back into the household.
She had to get married anyways, since the heiress position was Xiao Xin’s. He was busy imagining how revered Liu family will be in the future, but never considered getting XunMi’s opinion on the matter.
“Bang!” The sound of a gong sounded, drawing everyone’s attention.
XunMi and GongZi Su turned to the stage at the center of the room. The head of the GuiYuan sect was already standing there. He politely said a few words before explaining the rules. “Our prize for this competition will be an ancient ninth level pillmaking recipe and a high leveled martial arts skill book.”
Gasps of shock and surprise sounded through the crowd. Ninth level pillmaking recipe? That alone was a rare treasure. But the addition of a martial arts skill book? The competition was really generous this time.
The challengers rolled up their sleeves, ready for battle. Who wouldn’t want such good prizes? Even if they didn’t need it, the ninth level pill making recipe could be used to exchange with others.
XunMi was also intrigued by the award. Although she wouldn’t be able to cultivate martial arts, that didn’t mean her disciple wouldn’t find it useful. Now that she’s seen the high leveled martial arts skill book, she had to take it home or else her heart would hurt. As for that ninth level pill making recipe, she wasn’t interested at all.
Her system space had an infinite number of last world’s medicine formulas stored. It was just that she had been hesitant to take out medicines that didn’t exist in this world. The XiSui pill that she had given her first elder was a ninth level pill. In the culitivation world, it would have only been seen as an ordinary item.
“HanShuang, that martial arts book is pretty good. Try your best to win if you can. Even if you lose, it’s not a big deal. I can help you seize the book.” XunMi tilted her head to tell HanShuang. She was worried this little girl will try for the prize without caring for her life.
HanShuang wiped her drool, and nodded. “Teacher, don’t worry. I won’t go in blindly.” She understood that doing too much can be worse than doing nothing at all.
XunMi relaxed. She was worried that HanShuang would really be led askew by her. In order to not go against her established personality, she would usually smack anyone trying to provoke her with her bamboo flute.
They were lucky that she didn’t directly beat them. ┑(￣Д￣)┍ But over time, it seems that HanShuang has also become a bit violent.
Liu HuiRan coldly snorted, “You are boasting shamelessly.” He was angry that XunMi didn’t have the thought to gain the high leveled martial arts skill book for Liu family.
XunMi didn’t even look at Liu HuiRan’s direction and continued ignoring him. Meanwhile, Fu XinZhi gave Liu HuiRan’s abdomen a taste of her fist, making Liu HuiRan’s face distort.
“Madam, what are you doing?” His anger erupted.
“I’m not doing much. I just wanted to wake you up, don’t just dream during the day.” Fu XinZhi didn’t show her disdain on her face. She knew what this old thing was thinking. After being wife and husband for so long, she already understood Liu HuiRan.
XunMi turned away to avoid looking at Liu HuiRan’s face. On the inside, she was satisfied. This madam sure was formidable. That could explain where the original soul got her temper from. Although she looked weak and fragile on the outside, she was merciless as soon as fists were involved.
You you, just sit still. Can’t you see where we are right now?” Liu Hui Ran finally stopped the pain and began reprimanding Fu XinZhi.
Fu XinZhi coldly looked at him, “Who blind was I then to take a fancy for you?” She had nothing to worry about now. Her only daughter had been driven out of the home by Liu HuiRan.
Her daughter saw her as a stranger now. Everyone knew mother and daughter are connected by the heart, yet she didn’t even have the qualifications to be concerned about her daughter. How could she not hate?
Especially after she learned that her daughter had had her cultivation destroyed , her meridians snapped, and pushed into Death’s Eye. If not because she first needed to find evidence, she would have gone to fight Liu HuiRan then and there. She definitely won’t let Liu family go.
“Fu XinZhi, just wait until we get home.” Liu HuiRan barely held in his anger.
XunMi held her teacup, engrossed in the drama. It seems as if Liu madam held resentment for Liu family head. The killing intent emitting from Liu madam’s eyes was not faked.
But in her memories, the relationship between these two wasn’t bad. Could it because of her? Tsk, how would that be possible.
If the change really was because Liu XunMi, then where was Liu madam when she had been framed and suffering?
XunMi averted her eyes and lowered her head to cover the coldness brewing in her eyes. Sometimes, missing the timing meant everything. If they had overlooked it, then they can never go back. This was more than true for the deceased original soul.
“Teacher, I picked the first one.” Ouyang HanShuang came back holding a number sign and a pitiful expression. Her heart was filled with self-blame. She had thought that, even with her bad luck, the worse she would choose was somewhere in the middle. How did she get the first round? It will be so tiring to try to hold on until the last round.
XunMi raised her eyebrows, letting out a reckless smile. “First one? Then, you can take down all your competitors in one sweep. They didn’t say we couldn’t use strategy or pills in the competition.”
Tian Xuan noticed the flash of darkness on her face. He thought of a bad possibility, causing him to strengthen his grip on his cup.
“That’s right! Teacher, you are the smartest! Then I’ll go prepare now!” Ouyang HanShuang brightened and bounced away to wait below the platform.
