205: Chapter 205 Aunt and Nephew Meet
“I transplanted a Class 3 Spiritual Vein beneath White Cloud City; after all, this is my Foundation.”
Wang Bin didn't mention the solar energy conversion array to her; for now, it was fine if only he knew about it.
The main reason was his insufficient strength, and the solar energy conversion array here also needed to be removed.
When he had time, he planned to move the Class 3 Spiritual Vein from the Demon Beast Mountain Range to White Cloud City.
The solar energy conversion array would be fine for temporary use on Hulu Island.
Sensing the aura of a Golden Core cultivator, Huang Youcai and Chen Jun quickly brought their people and flew over.
“Greetings, City Lord!”
“Greetings, City Lord!”
“Not bad, your cultivation has all improved recently. Follow this City Lord well, and your future will not be bad!”
Wang Bin saw that Huang Youcai had already reached the second level of Foundation Establishment, but Chen Jun was still at the first level of Foundation Establishment.
Huang Youcai had achieved Foundation Establishment before Chen Jun, and his Spiritual Root was better than Chen Jun's. Coupled with Wang Bin's greater care for him and more Cultivation resources, his Cultivation speed was a bit faster.
Chen Jun only had a Four Spiritual Root; if he Cultivated under normal circumstances, he would never have the Opportunity to form a Golden Core in this lifetime.
“Chen Jun, I heard you got married? Do you have children now?
When you got married, this City Lord was in seclusion and couldn't attend your wedding, but the congratulatory gift cannot be less.
This Spiritual Artifact Flying Sword will be your congratulatory gift. From now on, serve this City Lord well!”
Wang Bin rummaged through his Storage Pouch and found that the worst Spiritual Artifact was a Medium Grade Spiritual Artifact Flying Sword.
He didn't know where this Flying Sword came from. Chen Jun was so excited his hands were trembling as he took the Flying Sword.
The joy on his face was completely unconcealable. A Medium Grade Spiritual Artifact Flying Sword would cost at least two thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.
With his meager salary, he would have to save for decades to afford it.
He immediately knelt on one knee and said:
“Thank you for the City Lord's reward! Your subordinate will definitely swear to serve the City Lord unto death!”
Wang Bin saw Huang Youcai's eager gaze and simply rolled his eyes.
However, seeing his son following behind him, Wang Bin rummaged through his Storage Pouch again for a while, pulling out a Foundation Establishment Pill and three drops of Spirit Liquid, which he threw over.
“Youcai, this is for you. Keep this Foundation Establishment Pill and Spirit Liquid for your son's Foundation Establishment.
I am now in the Golden Core Realm. Sometimes, once I enter seclusion, it's for several years, and I'm afraid I'll forget about this matter. You must develop your Family well!”
“Thank you, City Lord!”
“Thank you, City Lord!”
Huang Youcai and his son quickly knelt on one knee, thanking him loudly.
The two of them were extremely excited, and the Qi Refinement Stage patrol members behind them were even more envious.
That was a Foundation Establishment Pill!
It was something they dreamed of obtaining, their lifelong pursuit!
The City Lord just directly bestowed it upon them!
If it weren't for the City Lord being a Golden Core cultivator, and Huang Dui Zhang (Captain Huang) and Chen Jun being Foundation Establishment Cultivators, they might have even tried to snatch it.
Wang Bin saw everyone's expressions. His purpose in doing this was achieved; only by combining grace and power could he ensure his subordinates' loyalty.
At this moment, he remembered the patrol members stationed in the Demon Beast Mountain Range and almost forgot about them.
“From now on, the patrol members who go to the Demon Beast Mountain Range to stand guard will have their salary doubled each time. Those who have gone before will also be counted.
Even those from twenty years ago must be compensated.
Everyone, go and do your work well. This City Lord will not treat you unfairly!”
“Thank you, City Lord! Thank you, City Lord!”
Many people showed expressions of wild joy.
They used to be ostracized, which was why they were assigned to stand guard in the dangerous Demon Beast Mountain Range, where the danger level was the highest among the patrol team.
They didn't expect the City Lord to notice their hard work. It was just a pity for the sacrificed brothers.
Huang Youcai hesitated for a moment before saying, “For those patrol members who sacrificed their lives while standing guard before, should their compensation also be increased?”
“Double it directly! And don't withhold their money. Compile these matters well and go to Madam Du to collect it all!”
“Thank you, City Lord! The City Lord is benevolent!”
The patrol members excitedly knelt on one knee in unison, thanking Wang Bin.
Wang Bin left contentedly. He had only casually bestowed some items, yet he gained so much loyalty; it was too worthwhile.
Ever since he had the Spirit Liquid, he was also wealthy. These Qi Refinement Stage patrol members only received three to five hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones in annual salary.
This was still in Wang Bin's White Cloud City, under circumstances where Wang Bin had already doubled their treatment.
After painting a picture for his subordinates, Wang Bin led Du Juan and others to the City Lord's Mansion gate.
Wang Tian saw his father's series of actions just now, and his whole body was boiling with excitement.
He particularly enjoyed the feeling of a group of people kneeling before him. At this moment, he felt that this father was not bad!
At this time, Du Xiaoyue received the news and came out from the City Lord's Mansion to greet them.
“Husband! Aunt? You haven't come to see me in a long time!”
Du Xiaoyue looked at Du Juan in surprise. She hadn't seen her aunt in over ten years.
Because she had to be stationed in White Cloud City, her husband worried about her safety on the road and wouldn't let her go to West Sea City to purchase goods. Each time, it was Huang Youcai or Chen Jun who went.
Her aunt was busy with seclusion to break through to Golden Core, and she hadn't come to White Cloud City to see her all these years. She missed Du Juan very much in her heart.
However, when her gaze fell on the two children, one male and one female, behind her aunt, and then she turned to look at Wang Bin, and then at Du Juan, her face was filled with an expression of disbelief.
“Let's go inside first, don't stand at the door!”
Seeing Du Xiaoyue's expression, Wang Bin quickly pulled her into the City Lord's Mansion.
Family shame should not be aired publicly, although this was not some earth-shattering matter.
Wang Bin casually pulled over one of his sons and had him take Wang Tian and Ling'er to familiarize themselves with the home environment.
Finally, only the three of them remained in the room.
“That's right, things are exactly as you imagine. Tian'er and Ling'er are Du Juan's and my children! Why are you reacting so strongly!”
Wang Bin's words directly shattered Du Xiaoyue's fantasy.
“I… I just find it a bit unbelievable. Aunt has always been proud, and, and…”
Du Xiaoyue was already a grandmother and a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, so it wasn't that she couldn't accept such a thing.
It was just too unbelievable, after all, these two were her most important relatives.
“Senior Brother, please go out first! Xiaoyue and I need to talk alone!”
Du Juan directly chased Wang Bin out of the room. She felt it was better for her to tell Xiaoyue about this herself.
Wang Bin didn't say anything either; in his opinion, it wasn't a big deal. He even shouted towards the door:
“We're leaving tomorrow!”
“Understood!”
Du Juan replied, then set up a Restriction in the room, and Wang Bin could no longer hear the sounds inside.
Inside the room, Du Juan and Du Xiaoyue sat facing each other. Du Xiaoyue still couldn't help but ask curiously:
“Aunt, did husband force you?”
“No, I initiated it, and having children was also my idea.”
Du Xiaoyue looked at Du Juan in disbelief, asking in confusion:
“Why?”
Du Juan no longer acted shy or reserved and said directly:
“I don't want to die; I want to form a Golden Core.
You also know that with my Aptitude, I'll most likely just die of old age in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
He is my greatest Opportunity in this life.
Now I am living very happily. Even if I fail Core Formation this time and perish, I will have no regrets.
At least I still have Tian'er and Ling'er, and I've experienced the joy of being a woman!”
Du Xiaoyue's small face flushed, but soon returned to normal.
“Alright! Things are already like this, and I can only accept it.
It's just that I don't know whether to call your son 'cousin' or…”
Du Juan couldn't help but let out a chuckle, Du Xiaoyue's embarrassed expression appearing in her mind.
