101: Seventeen years old

Three days later, Xun Xiuyuan appeared in his room. Under the influence of Xun Xiuyuan's Dream of a Thousand Years, although he couldn't make the more than 12,000 Transcendent Realm exotic beasts kill each other, he could still affect them.

Moreover, with the added bonus of the soul pearl, the effect of Dream of a Thousand Years was exceptionally good. Although many Transcendent Realm exotic beasts had reached the peak of the early Transcendent Realm, they were still slain by Xun Xiuyuan's abnormal strength.

Although all were killed, the time spent was also more than usual, taking Xun Xiuyuan nearly three days.

Due to Ling Tian's appearance and his explanation of Xuan's origin, Xun Xiuyuan didn't want to stay in the Ling Tian Pagoda any longer and came out directly.

The moment Xun Xiuyuan appeared in the room, he eagerly opened the system panel.

Lottery Draws: 2357

Xun Xiuyuan furiously clicked, directly adding mental power to 35,000, bringing his mental power to that of a typical late Transcendent Realm cultivator.

This way, Dream of a Thousand Years would have control over most Transcendent Realm cultivators, especially with the bonus from his soul pearl.

Seeing the 'Special Items' section on the panel, Xun Xiuyuan understood that it wasn't just items from the Ling Tian Pagoda that were special items, but rather any equipment containing the power of laws was listed there.

Just as Xun Xiuyuan was about to start the lottery to exchange for happy times, the door was pushed open.

Xie Nanqiao and Bai Xiaoou walked in, and both were surprised to see Xun Xiuyuan sitting on the bed.

Xie Nanqiao said, "Xiao Yuan, when did you get back? When we came just now, you weren't here."

Bai Xiaoou didn't speak. Ever since her father passed away, Bai Xiaoou had become much quieter.

Xun Xiuyuan replied to Xie Nanqiao, "I just got back. I can teleport now, although not very far. You definitely wouldn't have noticed."

Then he looked at Bai Xiaoou: "Xiao Ou, how is Xiao Ming's cultivation recently? Are the resources still enough?"

Bai Xiaoou heard Xun Xiuyuan's concern and smiled: "Xiao Ming's progress is very fast, and the resources are sufficient. The breakthrough gene fluid is enough, and he's almost at the sixth rank. It's much faster than his cultivation speed at the Kyoto Martial Arts Academy."

Xun Xiuyuan nodded and said, "That's good. Because of the Lingtian Relic incident, the Abyss probably won't be peaceful recently. Don't leave Qianlong City; just focus on your cultivation."

As he spoke, he took out three pieces of women's defensive equipment: Azure Sky Gauze, Heavenly Illusion Gauze, and Green Washing Robe.

Xie Nanqiao saw them and exclaimed in surprise, "Xiao Yuan, have you finally wised up? You actually know to buy these things now?"

It wasn't surprising that Xie Nanqiao was astonished. One was a bellyband, one was underwear, both almost transparent, and the last was a long dress, which was relatively normal.

Xie Nanqiao picked up the bellyband, held it against herself, and then puffed out her chest, saying, "It seems a bit small!"

Bai Xiaoou also dropped her reserve, taking the underwear and holding it against herself: "This one is more suitable for me."

Although Xun Xiuyuan enjoyed watching the two women compare the items, he still had important things to say, so he spoke:

"These three garments are three void-piercing level defensive secret treasures for women that I obtained from the Ling Tian Pagoda. You two can take whichever one fits and wear it; they can withstand most damage below the void-piercing level."

Actually, there was no need to choose at all. The bellyband that Xie Nanqiao picked up first was definitely something she liked very much, otherwise she wouldn't have taken it. The same went for Bai Xiaoou.

The last item, the Green Washing Robe, was a long dress. Xun Xiuyuan picked it up and said, "Xiao Ou, you take this and wear it. Your cultivation is lower, so if something unexpected truly happens, I can feel a bit more at ease."

Then he looked at Xie Nanqiao and said, "I'll find a way to get another one; it won't take long."

Seeing Xun Xiuyuan's serious expression, Xie Nanqiao chuckled and said, "Xiao Yuan, if you always try to keep things perfectly balanced, you'll be very tired. Actually, reasonable is fine, really. In this era, we don't even know if we'll be alive tomorrow, so don't think too far ahead, and don't overthink. I really like this gift."

Bai Xiaoou didn't speak, but the joy in her eyes was unconcealed as she held the two pieces of equipment.

Then Xie Nanqiao slapped her forehead and said, "I almost forgot the real reason we came to find you! Today is your birthday. Aunt Ji asked us to call you to have dinner together and celebrate your birthday."

Xun Xiuyuan looked up at the ceiling, as if seeing the sky outside.

In this sunless Abyss, his mother still remembered his birthday. He guessed only his mother would remember it.

Xun Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Okay, let's go together now."

Although it was a simple birthday for Xun Xiuyuan, Xie Shan, Xie Lin, and even the Old Ancestor Xie An were present. Most of those familiar with Xun Xiuyuan had come, except for Xie Yunzhou who was currently in seclusion.

The five Lu family brothers, and the Lu family's Old Ancestor, Lu Feng.

A large round table, with nearly twenty people gathered around it.

In this regard, the atmosphere in Qianlong City was the best and most humane, which was related to the family traditions of the Lu Family and Xie Family.

Unlike some families where juniors had to kneel when speaking to the Old Ancestor.

After the butler placed all the dishes and wine on the table, he withdrew. Everyone began to drink with Xun Xiuyuan. As the saying goes, there are no fathers and sons in a casino, but all brothers at a drinking table.

Regardless of seniority or age, once the drinking started, everyone was the same.

Xie An's injuries had mostly recovered, and he was now accepting all drinks, drinking heartily. After all, the exhilaration of slaying a Shattering Void Realm expert still lingered in his heart, making him drink with great gusto.

Xun Xiuyuan drank his wine, with Xie Nanqiao and Bai Xiaoou seated on either side. Ji Wushuang watched, happy in her heart, and also had a few drinks, soon becoming drunk.

Xie Nanqiao and Bai Xiaoou helped Ji Wushuang back to her room to rest and did not come out again.

Xie An suddenly said, "Xiao Yuan, when are you planning to hold the wedding for you, Xiao Nan Qiao, and Xiao Bai?"

Xun Xiuyuan had actually thought about this question long ago: "Old Ancestor, with the current situation in the Abyss, I don't have the heart for such things. I'll do it when the Abyss is unified."

Xie An heard Xun Xiuyuan's words: "What if it takes ten, eight, or even a hundred years? You don't need to burden yourself with something that humanity hasn't achieved in hundreds of years. Are you going to make those two girls wait indefinitely?"

Xun Xiuyuan secretly thought: That's you all. Who am I? A cheater. A life with cheats needs no explanation.

He said aloud, "I'm confident that within two years, humanity will definitely defeat the Abyss exotic beasts and unify the Abyss. If the Abyss is still not unified after two years, then we'll get married first."

Xie An burst into laughter: "You're more ambitious than me, kid. You really dare to think big, Old Lu, did you hear that? Two years."

Lu Feng drank his wine, smiling without a word.

Xun Xiuyuan suddenly asked, "Old Ancestor, are there any Shattering Void Realm experts who use swords or soft whips?"
