Xiao Xiaofan weighed the spiritual stones in his hand and said casually, “Good that they did the right thing. Otherwise, I’ll beat them up.”
Xiao Jinting rubbed his forehead and said, “This is their territory after all. We’d better keep a low profile.” They had to stay in this place for a long time, so they should not to offend these young cultivators from the distinctive families.
Xiao Xiaofan said sullenly, “I got it.”
Xiao Xiaodong held the wet pheasant in his arms thoughtfully.
“Son, why does your pheasant look like dying?” Xiao Jinting said.
Xiao Xiaodong touched the feather on the pheasant’s forehead and said, “It says it is exhausted and it has to take a rest.”
“Son, your pheasant can transform. It will have a bright future, and you should take good care of it.” Xiao Jinting reminded solemnly. It was said that mirage dragons were the mutated species of flood dragons and pheasants, which sounded awesome.
Hearing Xiao Jinting’s words, the pheasant squawked with a proud face, as if saying to Xiao Jinting, “You have better taste than your son, who is blind.”
Xiao Xiaodong looked at the pheasant in his hand and said, “It takes good care of itself even if I don’t.”
Xiao Jinting nodded and said, “That’s right.” The pheasant was good at snatching food.
Xiao Xiaofan weighed the space ring in his hand and said, “These guys are really good at arithmetic. They gave us the exact amount of ten top-grade spiritual stones.” Those guys promised to give ten top-grade spiritual stones, but they gave away quite some medium spiritual stones to make up for some of the ten top-grade ones. The amount was exactly equivalent to what they had promised.
Xiao Xiaodong glanced at Xiao Xiaofan and said, “The cultivators I have met are all good at arithmetic except you.”
Xiao Xiaofan was lost for words.
…
Xiao Jinting returned to the hill they rented and found traces of trespassers. Thinking that there was nothing valuable on the hill, Xiao Jinting did not bother to investigate.
Not long after they went back home, the Ye Family came to visit.
“Mr. Xiao, nice to meet you,” Ye Jinlan said lightly.
“Miss Ye, nice to meet you too. I’ve heard a lot about you. What can I help you?” Xiao Jinting got straight to the point.
Ye Jinlan smiled. “I heard that you have recently sold a large amount of demonic beast materials. I wonder if you still have some.”
Xiao Jinting hesitated. He had left for more than half a year and killed a lot of Golden Core demonic beasts. He sold the beast materials in batches, afraid that he would attract attention, but in the end he had aroused suspicions.
“Mr. Xiao, why are you lying to me? Most of the demonic beast materials you sold are bits and pieces. I guess you have the valuable parts.” Ye Jinlan smiled and said confidently.
Xiao Jinting rubbed the cup in his hand and said, “Miss Ye, You’re well informed.”
“I have to be perceptive when it comes to business. Mr. Xiao, I mean well. Why don’t you sell them to me? If you think the price I offer is not reasonable, I’ll leave immediately,” Ye Jinlan said confidently.
Xiao Jinting hesitated for a moment and said, “In this case, I will sell them to you, but I hope you could keep the source of the materials secret.”
Ye Jinlan nodded and said, “Of course. We will do business together in the future. You’re such a good partner, and I don’t want others to snatch you.”
Xiao Jinting sold a large amount of demonic beast materials to Ye Jinlan and got hundreds of top-grade spiritual stones.
“Father, are you rich?” After Ye Jinlan left, Xiao Xiaofan went up to Xiao Jinting and asked him.
Xiao Jinting glanced at Xiao Xiaofan and shook his head, “Far from it.”
Xiao Jinting touched his chin and pondered. The jade space was several times larger than before, and Xiao Jinting found a time cultivation room there.
The time in the cultivation room moved slower than the outside world. If he invested enough spiritual stones, the time in the cultivation room could move slower.
After discovering the time cultivation room in the jade space, Xiao Jinting was ecstatic. For a cultivator, the more time, the better.
Unfortunately, Xiao Jinting found that he could bring people into the jade space, but he couldn’t bring them into the time cultivation room.
Xiao Jinting felt that with enough spiritual stones, the time cultivation room could be accessible to others.
The jade space swallowed spiritual stones like a bottomless pit. Ever since the time cultivation room opened, its appetite had grown increasingly bigger.
Xiao Jinting observed that the best cultivator on Nebula Island was at the advanced level of Nascent Soul, and the cultivation level was much lower than that of Cloud Continent. Therefore, he’d better go back if there was a chance. If he wanted to go back, he had to be an advanced Golden Core.
Although Chen Xu and Lei Xuan didn’t mention it, he could see the two guys also wanted to go back. After all, their homes were in Cloud Continent.
