Ch122 - Xinghua Village

Edited by Zaki

When Jiang Xu suddenly found that in the huge Palace, there was only him and his partner left, his face was a little distorted, and he was very unhappy in his heart. “Humph, what do those six people mean? Did they fear that we would kill them and take their treasures?”

Hearing this, Liu Mufeng smiled bitterly. “Among the eight people, the two of us are the least injured, and I can use poison to attack. They naturally have to guard against us.”

“Hmph, a bunch of bastards, if we wanted to kill them we would have killed them long ago, why would we wait until now?” Rolling his eyes, Jiang Xu was still very upset.

“All right, it’s not advisable to stay in the wrong place for a long time. Let’s go too!” Holding Jiang Xu’s hand, Liu Mufeng left the place with his lover.

After walking out of the Palace, the two of them released their Beast Fire, burning the corpses of the cultivators who had died on the altar this time.

After everything was settled, Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu got on their demon horses and immediately left Phoenix Mountain. Previously, they had planned to go to Tian City, but now, Liu Mufeng felt that they had great treasures on their hands and it was not advisable to go to the big city for now, so he brought his lover to a small village near Tian City.

This small village was called Xinghua Village. The young cultivators in the village who had some strength had gone to join the big clans. Most of the villagers who were left behind were old and weak women and children, and some young cultivators with poor qualifications. Because there were more people leaving, there were many empty houses in Xinghua Village. Liu Mufeng only spent 50 spirit stones and successfully bought the most remote large tiled house at the west end of the village. Although the location of this house was a bit remote, it was a new house that was only built last year. The house was spacious and bright, and the yard was also large. This made Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu very satisfied.

The two simply cleaned up and settled in their new home.

“Mufeng, this time we have received a total of 180 storage rings, 83 Blue Moon Fruits, 3 ten-thousand-year-old fruit trees, a Stealth Cat, plus a mysterious black box.” Jiang Xu reported the situation to his partner.

“Indeed, a good loot was gained. Have you had a chance to look at those storage rings?”

“I haven’t had time to look through them yet, let’s look together and get everything in order.”

“Okay.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng followed Jiang Xu to organize the things from the storage rings. This time, it was indeed a windfall. If nothing else, just the spirit stones they had gained totaled 30 million. In addition, they also got all kinds of spiritual plants, medicinal pills, magic tools, and weapons, and magic talismans were just countless.

“En, that might indeed be the case.” Nodding, Jiang Xu agreed to this assessment.

“Actually, I think Wang Yan and Tao Yu’s Master should have some grudges, otherwise, they wouldn’t want to kill each other so much.” After thinking about it, Liu Mufeng said his guess.

“What do you mean?” Looking at his partner, Jiang Xu looked puzzled.

“Remember? Tao Yu told us at the beginning that it was because two cultivators in the Spiritual King Realm fought in Phoenix Mountain, and hence the ruins were beaten out. This statement was not completely false, but half-true. There were indeed two cultivators in the Spiritual King Realm who fought, however, the ruins were not discovered then. It was precisely because of the ruins that the two cultivators must have fought. One of the cultivators in this fight was Tao Yu’s Master, and the other, perhaps was Wang Yan’s Master, or perhaps Wang Yan’s father, anyway, he must be a relative of Wang Yan’s, and this person was also a wizard. Or maybe, Wang Yan’s relative and Tao Yu’s Master were originally disciples under the same Master and fought for the relics left behind by their Master. As a result, Wang Yan’s relative was killed. Tao Yu’s Master then launched a series of activities for him to seize the opportunities, for example, setting up the altar, or trying to catch the sacrifice. Knowing that his relative was killed, Wang Yan then invited a group of his good brothers, looking for an opportunity to avenge his relative, but he was caught by Tao Yu. And then we saved them by chance.”

After hearing his lover’s theory, Jiang Xu’s eyes widened in surprise. “Mufeng, you, what you said makes so much sense. How do you know this?”

“Inferred from the various things. There were indeed traces of Masters fighting in Phoenix Mountain, but it was very far from the Palace. As soon as Wang Yan saw Tao Yu’s Master, his teeth were itching with hatred, and his eyes were bloodshot due to his anger. Also didn’t you notice? In fact, Wang Yan himself also knows some sorcery, but he doesn’t know much. Maybe, he is better at setting up Array formations.” Liu Mufeng noticed these little details.

Looking at his man in a dumbfounded manner, Jiang Xu had an uncomfortable expression. “Mufeng, you, you are a little scary. We don’t know a lot of things, but you have guessed them. Standing in front of you feels as if people have been stripped bare. Nothing escapes your eyes.”

Hearing this, Liu Mufeng smiled. He pretended to be serious and said, “No, you are wearing a lot of clothes, and I can’t see inside your clothes at all. Otherwise, you can take them off and let me have a look.”

Looking at the pretended seriousness of the other person, Jiang Xu laughed angrily. “Can you be really serious?! You haven’t even finished sorting out this pile of messy things yet!” Jiang Xu pointed to a pile of animal skins and bones beside him and other things that haven’t been categorized yet.

“No hurry, we can slowly categorize them tomorrow.” Saying so, Liu Mufeng came over and picked up his wife in a princess-carry.

“It’s broad daylight, you…” Jiang Xu looked helpless when he was put on the bed.

“It’s even more exciting during the day.” Liu Mufeng smiled and kissed his beloved’s cheek, and pressed him down directly.…

Liu Mufeng pestered Jiang Xu for three days. After three days, he took the Blue Moon Fruit and other spiritual plants to the bracelet dimension to refine pills, handing over the responsibility of everything at home to Jiang Xu.

A month later…

When Liu Mufeng finally left seclusion, he saw that there were four or five hundred Sanyuan chickens in the yard, and a group of Golden Spirit Insects was flying around the chickens.

“This, what’s the situation? Are you raising chickens?” Looking at his wife, Liu Mufeng asked curiously.

Hearing this, Jiang Xu smiled bitterly. “I don’t want to raise them either, but really didn’t have any choiceah! Since you went into seclusion, Xiaoyuan and the others have been stealing chickens from the villagers every now and then. That made all the old men and women come to me for compensation. So instead of buying and spending spirit stones every day, I thought it was better to raise some chickens for Xiaoyuan. So I bought 500 chickens to raise them.”

Seeing his lover’s helpless look, Liu Mufeng sighed softly and turned to look at Xiaoyuan. “Tell me, instead of eating the fish in the spiritual lake, you went out to steal chickens from villagers? They are just one-star, two-star Sanyuan chickens in the Spiritual Realm. How are they better than the fishes in the spiritual lake?”

“Fish is delicious, but eating them every day is very tiring. Besides, that dead cat is also grabbing fish from us every day. We don’t have enough fish.” Looking at his owner, Xiaoyuan said aggrievedly.

Hearing this, Liu Mufeng rolled his eyes. “Then why not give birth to fewer insects? You’re laying more than 2,000 for one birth. You want to make me poor just by eating?” From the initial 200 to the current 120,000 insects, Liu Mufeng felt that the fact he could even afford to feed the whole swarm was powerful in itself.

“Who made you so poor? I only gave birth to a few, and you can’t afford to feed them. Fortunately, I’m the only one in my colony that can give birth, otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to feed them even more.”

Hearing Xiaoyuan’s muttering, Liu Mufeng glared at the other party. “Learning to put blame now are you?”

“No.” Bowing her head, Xiaoyuan was like a child who did something wrong, not daring to look at her Master.

“You, you only know how to mess withXiaoXu, in the future, when I’m in seclusion, don’t make so many unreasonable requests fromXiaoXu, do you understand?”

“Understand.”

“En, okay, let’s keep these chickens for now, anyway, there is room in the yard.” Turning his head, Liu Mufeng looked at his partner. “Youah, you just spoil them too much.” Liu Mufeng, the Master, was very strict with Xiaoyuan, while Jiang Xu was very lenient towards these spirit insects. Once they were given a little leeway, these guys were unstoppable. A bunch of shameless guys, even stealing the chickens of the uncles and aunts from the village. It was really too much.

“The fishes that you left for me before you went into seclusion were indeed not enough to feed them all, so you really can’t blame Xiaoyuan.” Another main reason was that there was an extra fish-eating expert, Xiaoyue, so the quantity of fish was not enough.

“Okay, let’s keep these chickens first. What do you usually feed them?” Looking at his wife, Liu Mufeng asked.

“I bought the feed from the villagers.” Jiang Xu took out a bag and showed it to Liu Mufeng.

Grabbing a handful, Liu Mu Feng smelled it. He immediately recognized the five kinds of first-level spiritual plants that were grounded and mixed together. “I have seeds for these plants. Later, we can grow these spiritual plants in the yard. If the chickens are hungry, they can eat them by themselves. You don’t have to worry about them, let Xiaoyuan take care of them. They can raise their own food by themselves.”

“Oh, that’s good! If you plant those spiritual plants for them, then we don’t need to buy feed.” With a smile, Jiang Xu felt that they could save some spirit stones.

“En.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng came to the east side of the yard and released the Wood Spirit Insects. The Wood Spirit Insects immediately cultivated the land and planted the first-level spiritual plant seeds that Liu Mufeng gave them. Then they watered the seeds with spiritual water.

The first-level spiritual plant seeds that were nourished by the middle-grade spiritual water, grew very fast. In the blink of an eye, seedlings had already cropped up.

With a wave of his hand, Liu Mufeng took back the Wood Spirit Insects. At the same time released his own spiritual power to help with the plant growth and ripening.

Standing on the side, Jiang Xu saw thousands of bright green light spots falling on the seedlings of the spiritual plants, followed by the seedlings growing rapidly – almost like magic. The growth speed was visible to the naked eye and in a blink of an eye, the plants had already grown to the height of half-an-adult.

“Mufeng, you, you are amazing.” Looking at his partner, Jiang Xu couldn’t help the look of adoration in his eyes.

Looking at his lover’s doting appearance, Liu Mufeng smiled and rubbed his lover’s hair. “This is a first-level spiritual plant. I’m in the Spiritual Master Realm now. Of course, if I want to ripen it immediately, there is no problem. But I can’t ripen a level three plant in the same way.”

“Oh, even so, this is very amazing.” Smiling, Jiang Xu still had a proud face. His family’s Mufeng was the most powerful and the best.
