Reigning Supreme in countless worlds With Beast taming-Chapter 41 - : Old Family Master Takes You to Eat Papaya
Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Old Family Master Takes You to Eat Papaya
Several days had passed, and numerous people had been settled around their courtyard.
Among them were families from other cities overseen by Tieling County, similar to the Qin Family, all vassal families under the Beast Taming Sect, with a few also sending family disciples, preparing to join the Sect.
However, there were even more ordinary young men and women, similar to Qin Xi. Due to their good aptitudes and willingness to work hard, they had opened their Spiritual Acupoints. After preliminary assessments by some disciples of the Beast Taming Sect who traveled outside, they were arranged to stay here, waiting for the Outer Sect Elders to arrive and take them together.
There were dozens of these youngsters, whereas disciples like Qin Feng, who came from a clan background, were less than ten.
Indeed, these families were weak and lacked sufficient resources to nurture many clan members.
Only the Zhao Family of the Commandery had six family disciples prepared to join the Sect this year.
There was no comparison; the Zhao Family was affluent and resourceful, capable of providing for its younger generations.
However, these Zhao Family disciples didn’t mingle with Qin Feng and the other youngsters. They hadn’t even been to the Ten Thousand Demons Pavilion but were instead staying at their family mansion, waiting to leave with the Outer Sect Elder.
The old Clan Chief of the Zhao Family was powerful, not far from the Purple Mansion Realm. Once he achieved a breakthrough, he would become a prominent figure in the entire Chu Kingdom, so the Outer Sect Elder coming to take disciples would still give him this bit of face.
However, the Outer Sect Elder responsible for taking these new disciples back this year was a few days later than usual, unclear what had delayed him on the road.
Qin Guanbao was getting impatient.
He had originally thought that he would only need to stay here for a couple of days to send Qin Feng and the other away, but it had already been five or six days, and the Elder meant to receive the new disciples hadn’t arrived yet.
In the past few days, the old Family Head had been teaching Qin Feng and Qin Xi daily, feeling that he had already imparted a lot of experience to them. The rest they would need to comprehend and perceive on their own.
Thus, unable to bear the loneliness, the old Family Head, under the guise of visiting friends, would go out ‘to visit friends’ every night!
He truly managed to leave at sunset and return at dawn.
Teaching two juniors during the day and still laboring like this at night made Qin Feng and Qin Xi extremely grateful.
They felt that the old Family Head, at such an advanced age, was still working so hard. They felt slightly guilty and wanted to help but didn’t know where to start.

That evening, after the old Family Head had left, Qin Feng felt stuffy in the room and decided to go out for a walk.
He knocked on Qin Xi’s door and asked, “Sister Xiaoxi, I plan to go out for a stroll. I heard there’s also a night market in the Market area, would you like to come with?”
“I still need to cultivate,” came Qin Xi’s gentle voice from inside the room. “Be careful on your own out there. Don’t buy random things and don’t come back too late.”
Hearing this, Qin Feng couldn’t help but smile.
It seemed that Qin Xi was really frightened by the old Family Master’s words, even specifically warning him not to squander Spirit Stones.
“Alright, I understand.”
Qin Feng replied, then turned and walked outside.
Because Cultivators cultivate their methods, they are a group of energetic folks. Even Qi Refinement Realm cultivators, though small, could manage a few days without sleep without much issue.
There were some cultivators whose cultivation techniques were particularly effective in enhancing the Divine Soul, making them more vigorous.
So even at night, many cultivators strolled around leisurely.
With extraordinary abilities, the streets at night, though not as bright as day, weren’t much dimmer.
Some shops had Glazed Cups hanging at the entrance, illuminating an area of a hundred yards. Others had only a candle lit, its light seemingly dim like a bean, but it emitted a soft radiance that was very comfortable to behold.
Even more dazzling, some stores’ signboards were made using the methods of refining Spiritual Artifacts, exuding brilliant light at night and attracting people’s attention.
Qin Feng leisurely walked on the street, glancing at the scattered stalls with Spiritual Objects on either side, and to be honest, he was quite tempted.
Previously, his family had supported him and Qin Xi with three hundred Spirit Stones each, along with some Elixir Pills for cultivation assistance and Spirit Talismans for protection.
Three hundred Spirit Stones each might not seem much, but together, they accounted for thirty percent of the family’s annual income, which was no small amount. The Qin Family relied on their three hundred acres of Spiritual Fields and some other scattered income, earning just over two thousand Spirit Stones a year.
The family managed to allocate six hundred Spirit Stones every year to maintain the normal cultivation of over a hundred cultivators, which was not easy.
Although he had items obtained from the Huang Family, which could make him a fortune once dealt with, the Spirit Stones he had were still insufficient.
He was different from other newbie cultivators; not only did he have the Swallowing Sky Toad, a glutton, but also the Demon Refining Pot, a treasure.
Not to mention the substantial cost required to restore the Demon Refining Pot to its original state, just aiding the Swallowing Sky Toad in integrating its bloodline consumed a vast amount of resources.
The integration of bloodlines could only be done once per realm; for further integrations in the next realm with other Demon Beast bloodlines, the resources required would multiply.
The higher the realm, the more resources were needed, and the assets he had were truly not enough.
Thus, Qin Feng began to linger around various stalls, hoping to pick up some treasures.
Although the chances were slim, such things could still happen; perhaps he could be the lucky one?
Unfortunately, many young people harbored this thought, but very few actually found bargains.
This luck did not fall upon him either; instead, several Loose Cultivators, thinking he was naïve due to his youth, tried to sell him so-called treasures in a mysteriously deceptive manner, which left him speechless.
After wandering around for nearly half an hour and finding no missed opportunities, he no longer focused on this and began to seriously examine the goods.
The same items sold by these Loose Cultivators at their stalls were about ten to twenty percent cheaper than in the stores; he just needed to be careful not to be fooled by fake goods.
Just as he bargained a reasonably good-looking Flying Snake Orchid down from fifteen to five Spirit Stones and the Loose Cultivator was about to agree to the deal, Qin Feng’s eyes lit up as he saw the Old Family Master, Qin Guanbao, approaching from not far away.
The Old Family Master was somewhat unsteady on his feet and reeked of alcohol, evidently having imbibed a bit too much while socializing with friends.
Seeing the Old Family Master stagger and nearly trip, Qin Feng wasn’t concerned about buying the Flying Snake Orchid anymore. He quickly left the stall owner and went up to Qin Guanbao, “Uncle Jiushi, are you done socializing so soon today?”
A bit tipsy, Qin Guanbao looked up and saw Qin Feng, immediately bursting into laughter, “You little rascal, what are you doing here?
Well, since we’ve bumped into each other, consider yourself included. Come on, Grandpa is taking you out for some papaya tonight!”
