The Arrogant Immortal-Chapter 50 - Ill join in the fun

The little seedlings were lush and brimming with vitality. In contrast, their own rice fields were sparse and barely hanging on to life.

The Spirit Gathering Array that Xie Jiuniang had set up had, ten days ago, run out of Spirit Stones in the Array Plate’s grooves, and so it stopped automatically.

Xie Siniang had collected the Array Plate for her in advance.

Without comparison, there is no harm felt, but was the difference between Spiritual Fields with and without the Spirit Gathering Array really that big?

Xie Siniang asked, “Little Uncle, do you know of any other ways to earn income?”

“Are there? Studying the four arts?” Xie Xu had recently begun studying formations.

Xie Siniang shook her head, “It won’t yield any results anytime soon.”

“Then go take on missions from the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall.” Xie Xu looked over her cultivation base and then gave her a suggestion, “Your cave dwelling this year is decent. I suggest you focus on cultivation and strive to break through as soon as possible. Look at Xiaojiu, she secludes herself whenever she has the chance…”

Out of forty-two days since joining the Sect, she had spent thirty-nine in seclusion.

Was this something a human could do?

Xie Siniang wordlessly looked up to the sky, sighing and saying, “Whenever I think I’m working hard, I look at Xiaojiu and feel like it’s not enough.”

Hearing this, Xie Xu straightened up, also gazing into the distance, and said seriously, “Xiaosi, if a child like Xiaojiu can work so hard, we can’t slack off either.”

“Right! Let’s cultivate!”

Pumped up, the two of them were about to return to their cultivations.

Just at this time, a rebellious young man happened by, glanced at the Spiritual Fields, and, finding members of the Xie Family, walked over uncontrollably.

Xuanyuan You lifted his chin and asked, “Hey, you two… what’s the Little Profiteer been up to lately? I haven’t seen her around.”

Xie Siniang glared at him, “Where are your manners? We don’t respond to ‘hey.'”

“I don’t know your names,” Xuanyuan You turned to look at Xie Xu.

Xie Xu didn’t answer, but instead asked with a smile, “Xuanyuan junior brother, what do you want with my Xiaojiu?”

“Nothing in particular, just casually asking.” Xuanyuan You was a Young Master by temperament and upbringing, with a distinct character, “Lately some people have been asking about her, what has she done now?”

Xie Xu and Xie Siniang exchanged glances and shook their heads simultaneously.

Xie Siniang tentatively said, “Xiaojiu hasn’t really done anything. She’s been in seclusion the whole time.”

“Indeed. She went into seclusion on the fifth day after joining the Sect.” Xie Xu joined in the conversation.

Xuanyuan You looked dubious, murmuring, “That’s not right. There must be something. I’ll go and inquire further.”

“Hold on, Xuanyuan junior brother.”

Xie Xu enthusiastically stepped forward and hooked his arm around Xuanyuan You’s shoulder, “Let’s go together, it’s better to discuss with a companion. By the way, what did that person want to know?”

“Oh, he actually didn’t ask much…”

Xuanyuan You’s status was not low, and he mixed with circles that Xie Xu and the others could not compare to. Therefore, when Xuanyuan You noticed something amiss, Xie Xu and the others were completely unaware.

The two of them walked off arm in arm, chatting as they went.

Xie Siniang stood there confused.

After a moment of thought, she decided to head back to cultivate.

It was rare to have such a superior cave dwelling this year; it would be a shame not to take advantage of it.

Just as Xie Si Niang was about to head back, she happened to see Xie Jiu Niang coming out of seclusion. She paused for a moment before returning to her senses and exclaimed with delight, “Xiaojiu! Have you finally finished your seclusion?”

“Yeah, I’ve come out.”

Xie Jiu Niang responded with a big, laughing smile.

Xie Si Niang stepped forward to look her over and seeing her complexion was normal, felt reassured. She then started talking about the trivial matters that occurred after she entered seclusion, and also brought up Xie Shen and his wife, who settled in the Sect Market.

Xie Si Niang handed over the Spirit Gathering Array Plate to Xie Jiu Niang and, slapping her forehead, said, “Xiaojiu, I almost forgot. Just now, I and Uncle met with Xuanyuan You, and he mentioned someone was asking about you.”

“Asking about me?” Xie Jiu Niang feigned surprise and asked, “Who is inquiring about me?”

Xie Si Niang was at a loss and shook her head, “Xuanyuan You didn’t say, and we had no clue beforehand. Uncle has gone to find out more; let’s ask him when he gets back.”

Xuanyuan You might be arrogant, but he’s straightforward and guileless; tricking him for information wouldn’t be difficult.

Xie Jiu Niang was actually curious to know which groups were taking an interest in her now, so she said, “Let’s wait for Uncle to return then. I’m going to the Sect Market to see my parents. Is there anything you want me to take to them?”

“Nothing. You go ahead with your affairs, I’m going to enter seclusion.” Xie Si Niang waved at her and left first.

Xie Jiu Niang had just reached the large platform halfway up the mountain when she saw that familiar Little Immortal Crane.

Upon seeing her, the Little Immortal Crane spread its wings and flew toward her, a complete change in attitude from last time.

The other Immortal Cranes nearby seemed to look at the Little Immortal Crane with curiosity.

It was as though they were saying, weren’t we agreed on ignoring this little rascal? Why is it darting over so eagerly?

Xie Jiu Niang warmly approached and hugged the Little Immortal Crane’s neck, smiling from ear to ear, “Little Immortal Crane, did you miss me? I’m heading to the Sect Market, take me there, will you?”

The Little Immortal Crane’s eyes shone sneakily as it stared at her Storage Bag.

Xie Jiu Niang couldn’t help but chuckle, “One Spirit-Gathering Pill.”

The Little Immortal Crane hesitated for a moment, waiting for her to raise the offer.

Xie Jiu Niang first took out a bottle of Spirit-Gathering Pills, then poured out one.

The scent of the Elixir instantaneously wafted through the air.

The surrounding Immortal Cranes quickly stood up, their eyes gleaming as they fixated on the Elixir.

“Huish?”

Not far away, an Immortal Crane called out and spread its wings, wanting to come closer.

The Little Immortal Crane hurriedly gulped down the Spirit-Gathering Pill.

It urged Xie Jiu Niang onto its back and, unable to wait another moment, took to the sky with powerful wingbeats.

“Hahaha…”

Xie Jiu Niang let out a laugh.

The Little Immortal Crane was so much more endearing than certain people.

In the moment that Xie Jiu Niang departed, several Sound Transmission Talismans flew out from Shihao Mountain.

Inside a cave dwelling on Qianlong Peak.

Gongsun Yu received news of Xie Jiu Niang’s journey.

“Young Master, shall we follow to the Fangshi?” a cautious attendant asked.

A shadow passed through Gongsun Yu’s eyes, “Go! How can we not go?”

While various parties kept a close watch on Xie Ying, the Lin and Mo families turned their attention to someone else. If one said there was no ulterior motive, Gongsun Yu would be the first to disbelieve, especially since Mo Chuan had already received his benefits.

Within the Inner Sect, on Danfeng.

Mo Chuan also received the message.

However, his points of interest were always different from others.

He took out a Sound Transmission Talisman and directly inquired, “A’shi, has the Lin family made any moves?”

A response flew back outside quickly, a male voice reporting, “Master, Lin Young Master just left on his sword. Also, I have spotted Gongsun Young Master leading people towards the Sect entrance.”

“Heh, then I shall add to the excitement as well.”

Mo Chuan elegantly stood up, straightened his clothes, and brushed his sleeves lightly.

His relaxed demeanor appeared as if he was going to a banquet.
