Chapter 1416: Li Shaobai
Yuanyuan returned to Tan Shaoting’s side, the two holding hands. She suddenly felt a surge of malice.
Since arriving at the Xuantian Sect, she hadn’t felt it before. Extending her Divine Sense, she discovered it was the cultivator she encountered yesterday.
She saw him sitting in front. That must be the Nascent Soul Cultivator.
How could a Nascent Soul Cultivator within the same sect harbor malice towards the disciples?
After hearing his inner thoughts, Su Yuanyuan felt speechless. There truly are all kinds of people. Many like her, but this kind of mindset is really rare.
Tan Shaoting squeezed his wife’s hand tighter, understanding her thoughts.
After the award ceremony, Tan Shaoting received a Sound Transmission Talisman. It turned out that the Accompanying True Man wanted him to attend a trade fair.
"You go, we’ll take a trip to the workshop; we haven’t been out for a while, and I want to browse around."
Su Yuanyuan rarely needed external resources for cultivation. Their visit to the workshop was purely to enjoy the atmosphere and perhaps find a good deal.
"I won’t go, I’ll stay with you."
Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "Why come with us? We’re just going to the Spiritual Clothing Pavilion to make some vestment robes. You should attend the gathering with people of your level."
In the end, the family of three went their separate ways. Su Yuanyuan and her daughter went down the mountain.
The mother and daughter arrived at the workshop and headed straight to the Spiritual Clothing Pavilion. The main reason was that all three needed vestment robes. It’s better to be properly armed for the ranking competitions.
Su Yuanyuan selected two vestment robes for Tan Shaoting, costing fifty thousand Spirit Stones. The mother and son also got two each.
Such big spenders were rare, mainly because there were so many of them in the family.
The vestment robes would take three months to be ready. The mother and daughter cast a small spell to disguise their appearances, not wanting to attract attention.
Li Shaobai followed behind them, watching Su Yuanyuan’s happiness, his own face reflecting a smile as if he was also experiencing her joy.
He himself felt puzzled, wondering why he was so fixated on the woman he met at first glance. It was beyond his expectation.
It was like being possessed, not knowing why he behaved this way.
The mother and daughter went to the Free Market purely to change their mood.
After a round of browsing, they didn’t see anything they liked, but they weren’t disappointed and headed to Duobao Pavilion instead.
Now that both mother and daughter were recording Array Plates, they needed a lot of materials.
"Senior, here are the materials you need, please check."
Su Yuanyuan swept with her Divine Sense, finding no mistakes. She asked for more talisman paper and beast blood.
"Mother, we should collect beast blood ourselves."
"That’s fine; we’ll take a trip in a few days."
"Senior, sorry to bother you. I wanted to ask if you’re selling Array Plates as well. We are offering high prices."
Lately, there has been a high demand for Array Plates. The shopkeeper said regular suppliers would be appreciated.
Su Yuanyuan thought about it, deciding it was feasible. She had too many Array Plates with no use for them.
"What’s the price?"
The staff glanced with surprise at Su Yuanyuan, "Senior, please wait a moment, I’ll call our shopkeeper over."
The shopkeeper at Duobao Pavilion in the Xuantian Sect was a late-stage Golden Core cultivator.
"Greetings, fellow Daoist."
The mother and daughter rose and replied, "Greetings, senior."
"Please have a seat. I’m here to discuss Array Plates." This person was straightforward.
Su Yuanyuan took out second-tier, third-tier, and fourth-tier Array Plates from her Storage Bag and placed them on the table. "Senior, please take a look."
The shopkeeper checked them with a pleased smile and kept nodding. "Very impressive! I wonder how many types of Array Plates your friend has and how many in total?"
"Senior, how about discussing the price? If it suits me, I’ll sell."
"Rest assured, fellow Daoist, I’ll offer a satisfactory price. Second-tier Array Plates for five hundred Spirit Stones, third-tier for one thousand five, and fourth-tier for five thousand. Does this price work for you?"
Su Yuanyuan smiled and asked, "And what about the price for Composite Array Plates?"
"That depends on how many types of Array it contains."
Su Yuanyuan took out several Array Plates. The shopkeeper, even more satisfied after examining them.
"Fellow Daoist, I’ll offer ten thousand Spirit Stones for a fourth-tier composite Array, five thousand for the third-tier, and two thousand five hundred for the second-tier."
Su Yuanyuan found the price acceptable, selling fifty Array Plates there, making the shopkeeper extremely delighted.
After receiving the Spirit Stones, she looked at her daughter.
Qi Wen also took out first and second-tier Array Plates, products from her usual practice, totaling over thirty.
The shopkeeper was also quick, offering high prices, mainly wanting to build a good relationship with the mother and daughter.
He already knew they were the first in the Xuantian Sect’s Foundation Establishment and Qi Refinement stages.
The mother and daughter happily left Duobao Pavilion. With nothing else needed and having spent a day already, Tan Shaoting had sent them two transmissions. He wished to come over, but the mother and daughter reassured him.
Back at the sect, Tan Shaoting was relieved to see his wife and daughter.
During dinner, Tan Shaoting talked about the trade fair, saying he didn’t gain anything.
Sword cultivators typically have few needs, and with the quality of his items, ordinary things don’t appeal to him. So it was purely for socializing and meeting around eighty percent of the sect’s Golden Core cultivators.
Knowing about the profits from selling the Array Plates, he congratulated them with a smile.
"We mother and daughter are thinking of going on a training trip. With one year left, we’ll be out for a few months."
Tan Shaoting, unwilling to let them go, wanted to join but was refused.
"We won’t go far, just nearby. Focus on your cultivation; don’t fall behind. Since you’ve joined the ranking competition, you must work hard."
Tan Shaoting had no choice, so that night he was persistent. Su Yuanyuan cooperated with him, pushing him past his limits.
The next day, the mother and daughter went to the Task Hall to take on assignments, each taking a few.
"Qi Wen. Senior."
Su Yuanyuan nodded.
"Xiao Tung, are you taking assignments?"
"Yes, do you want to join us?"
"No, I’m leaving with my mother. We’ll head off now."
"Xiao Tung, I told you it’s pointless to ask. She’s already number one; why would she team up with us?" Cheng Xiaoya said sourly.
The other two girls said nothing, but their expressions were similar.
Their thoughts were simple: having Qi Wen along would be advantageous in dangerous situations. But if she doesn’t want to, there’s nothing they can do.
Even though Qi Wen couldn’t perform Mind Reading, she could guess from the expressions of the young girls.
"Mom, I don’t have any friends now."
"Such people weren’t friends to begin with. You must discern clearly. Friends like that are better left alone."
Qi Wen nodded, "I understand, but it still feels a bit sad."
