75: Foundation Building Pill
Hearing this, Xiao Qingyuan quickly lifted Yang Zhantang, who was still spitting blood, from his side: "I'm taking him home."
"This kid's name is Yang Zhantang. He's a Captain of the Zhenwu Guard. He had a cultivation deviation earlier, blah blah blah..."
Xiao Qingyuan patted Yang Zhantang's shoulder like they were old buddies and said, "So, all of this is just a coincidence."
"Zhenwu Guard?"
Immediately after, the entire Family looked at Yang Zhantang with unfriendly eyes.
Yang Zhantang's scalp tingled.
It's here.
Indeed, all of the Xiao Family were taught by the same master.
They had no reverence for the imperial court at all.
In reality, how could they have no reverence?
It was just that Xiao Yanrou's Family had just experienced life and death. Although the Zhenwu Guard was strong, they weren't people who would be beaten and not hold a grudge.
The Qingshan Garrison had almost gotten their entire Family killed this time.
Under such hatred, their reverence naturally vanished.
As for Wei Wuji, he was originally from the imperial Family.
Zhenwu Guard?
They were just dogs kept by the Wei Kingdom Royal Family.
So, there was even less reverence.
However, Yang Zhantang had, after all, saved Xiao Qinglan and Xiao Qingni once. They were grateful and wouldn't truly take their anger out on him because of this incident.
They just instinctively disliked hearing the name 'Zhenwu Guard'.
Fortunately, Xiao Qingyuan continued, "But he's my friend, and he's not with the Zhenwu Guard from the Qingshan Market!"
Hearing this, Yang Zhantang nodded repeatedly, snot bubbles even appearing: "Yes, yes, yes, my boss and I are good brothers who've been through life and death together!"
"As for my cultivation," Xiao Qingyuan said righteously, "This is all the result of my usual hard work and effort, without a single bit of exaggeration!"
Xiao Yanrou nodded upon hearing this. She had no intention of prying into Xiao Qingyuan's secrets.
She was just afraid that Xiao Qingyuan might go astray.
So, her tone softened: "Qingyuan, you are a sensible child, and your current cultivation has even surpassed your grandfather's.
From now on, think about the consequences of everything.
Although this time's harvest was great, it was by no means a rational act.
Killing people and seizing treasures will never last long.
Aunt just hopes that you don't lose your sense of reverence because of your rapidly increasing strength.
At the very least, don't do things like rogue cultivators!
Always think more about your parents."
Xiao Qingyuan's chest warmed upon hearing this, and he nodded repeatedly.
He patted his chest and guaranteed, "Aunt, don't worry. You know I love peace. If others don't provoke me, I will never strike first."
"[But if they do provoke me, then don't blame me for eradicating them completely.]"
"[Like that guy named Ku He...]"
Thinking of this, he subtly glanced at thegiggleing Yang Zhantang.
"[Forget it, I'll wait until this kid recovers from his injuries.]"
"[Slowly, no rush. I'll try to get Guanyin Nu pregnant in the next few days and Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment.]"
"Very good, Qingyuan. We don't cause trouble, but we're not afraid of it either.
Although Aunt's cultivation isn't great, she's still willing to fight to the death.
If anyone dares to provoke you, our entire Family will back you up.
And finally..."
At this point, Xiao Yanrou's tone became serious: "Today, you never went to the Market, understand? And you keep all the things in those Storage Pouches for yourself.
All the Storage Pouches must be destroyed.
Understood?"
Xiao Qingyuan was somewhat silent upon hearing this.
He knew Aunt was doing this for his own good.
Handling it this way would also be more discreet.
But with so many Honored Guests of the immortal Family dead, how could he let Aunt's Family bear the burden alone?
So, from his Storage Pouch, he took out five thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones and shoved them all into Xiao Yanrou's hand.
Xiao Yanrou was startled and wanted to refuse.
But Xiao Qingyuan chuckled and said:
"I am also a part of the immortal Family. These Spirit Stones are my donation to those fallen clansmen."
"You don't need that much. Aunt's Family still has some savings these past few years. You don't need to worry about any of this."
However, Xiao Qingyuan ignored her, picked up Yang Zhantang, and ran.
"I just married a new wife, Aunt. You can discuss your Family matters behind closed doors!"
"Oh, right, Uncle is actually from the Wei Kingdom Royal Family, that's really scary!"
"I won't delay you, Aunt, from questioning him properly."
Upon hearing these words, Wei Wuji's expression stiffened again.
He turned his head and saw.
Xiao Yanrou had indeed turned her gaze back to him.
"Qingyuan is right, explain!"
"What reason did you, a member of the Wei Kingdom Royal Family, have for marrying into the immortal Family?"
..."Uncle came more than twenty years ago, when the immortal Family was at its poorest, right?"
At this moment, Xiao Qingyuan was also muttering to himself.
Many melodramatic scenes appeared in his mind.
But he didn't pay too much attention to it.
His Family had a hidden Bloodline.
Why couldn't the Wei Kingdom Royal Family have one too?
Over the years, who knew how many scattered imperial Bloodlines there were in the Wei Kingdom.
No matter what, Uncle Wei Wuji also had a Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root.
Whether he could even enter the imperial Family's genealogy was debatable.
Aside from preventing people from directly killing imperial Family Bloodlines, which would attract the Hall of Offerings of the Wei Kingdom Royal Family.
There was really nothing remarkable about it.
So, he immediately put the matter out of his mind.
This time, Xiao Qingyuan didn't actually send Yang Zhantang back to the woodshed.
Instead, he arranged for him to stay in the guest room and instructed the servants to take good care of him.
However, this kid suddenly, shyly, said that he still wanted to go back to the woodshed.
And that it would be best to provide him with iron chains and Spirit Sealing Talismans.
This utterly shocked Xiao Qingyuan.
Ignoring his severe injuries, he gave him another powerful slap to the back of the neck, making him grimace and hiss.
Then he turned and ran.
Damn it.
Confirmed, this kid is indeed a pervert.
I'm out, I'm out... For the next period of time.
Besides comforting his newlywed Haitang.
Xiao Qingyuan spent almost all his time in Guanyin Nu's room.
Nights of revelry.
Sometimes even during the day... revelry.
The goal was to get Guanyin Nu pregnant quickly.
The Family matters did cause a stir, and Xiao Tianheng no longer bothered to continue stabilizing his Qi Training Completion Realm, breaking through his seclusion.
Fortunately, Aunt's Family now had the backing of 'cash power,' so it didn't cause much of a stir.
The matter quickly subsided.
Especially after hearing that other immortal Families had suffered heavy losses.
And that his own daughter and son-in-law's Family were completely unharmed.
Xiao Tianheng, greatly relieved, felt a strong affection for these old subordinates who had sacrificed themselves to cover the retreat, and the treatment of their clansmen was also greatly improved.
These things will not be mentioned for now.
At this time, Xiao Qingyuan finally finished organizing all the spoils of war.
First was the second-tier Storage Pouch he valued most, and the resources within it did not disappoint him.
One hundred Medium-Grade Spirit Stones and as many as twenty thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones.
A dazzling array of various immortal cultivation Materials, countless Medicinal Pills, and several Legacies.
Spells, Formations, Artifact Refining, Alchemy, and even winemaking.
The value was immeasurable.
It could be described as incredibly wealthy.
This didn't even include the six five elements spiritual objects within.
Two drops of ten thousand year spiritual milk solved his lack of five elements spiritual objects.
There were also two more three-colored lieyang flowers, which were extra due to having the Spirit Communication Flame.
And two wood-attribute Five Elements Materials.
Enough to Cultivate six more Qi Training Completion cultivators for the immortal Family.
However, after Xiao Qingyuan inspected all the Medicinal Pills, a jade bottle, whose Materials were clearly unusual, completely captivated his attention.
"This is..."
