Douluo: God-level cheat, invincible as soon as you get out of the mountain
Chapter 661 Yao Chen: This won't work, that won't work, if all else fails you should go se
"Three hundred gold coins, five hundred gold coins"
At noon, Xiao Yan looked at his seven hundred gold coins with a pained expression.
When Yao Chen saw his pathetic state, he almost slapped him on the back of the head.
"You've already counted this little bit of money three times. If you keep dragging this out, do you still want to recover your seventh-level Dou Qi within a year?"
However, Xiao Yan rolled his eyes at him and said, "Do you think I don't want to? I really don't have the money."
"If you don't have money, can't you borrow some? You're really stubborn."
"Borrow? Who am I supposed to borrow from? The fact that I'm a good-for-nothing has spread throughout Wutan City. Who would be so foolish as to lend me money?"
"Don't you have a clan chief father? Borrowing a thousand gold coins shouldn't be difficult, right?"
"No, my dad spent 500,000 yuan a few years ago to buy me a Qi Gathering Powder to break through to the Dou Zhe level. Even now, the elders still talk about it with my dad."
After discussing it, Yao Chen and Xiao Yan realized that they really had no other solutions.
After much deliberation, Yao Chen still pointed out a clear path for Xiao Yan.
"Go ask Fu Ye for some. Even a tiny bit of dust from him would be enough for your cultivation resources for the next ten years."
Upon hearing Yao Chen's words, Xiao Yan quickly shook his head.
"No, forget about seeing him. I reckon the moment I step into the back mountain, I'll be controlled by those three female demons."
Xiao Yan's face was full of terror, clearly indicating that he had been traumatized by Zi Yan and the others.
"Damn it, can't you be a little more dignified?!"
"This won't work, that won't work either. Why don't you go sell hooks? With your delicate skin, you should be able to fetch a good price."
Yao Chen was truly helpless with Xiao Yan. He was, after all, a dignified Medicine Venerable, but after all this time, Xiao Yan couldn't even raise enough start-up capital.
The mountain behind the Xiao family.
Zi Yan, who was giving Fu Ye a back massage, reminded him, "Brother Fu Ye, Xiao Yan and Yao Chen are here."
"Okay, I understand. Let them in."
Not long after.
Xiao Yan and Yao Chen arrived at the courtyard where Fu Ye and the others lived.
However, upon seeing the scene before them, a strange sense of envy instantly welled up within them.
Fu Ye lay on the cool bamboo mat to be weighed, Xun'er fed him chilled spiritual fruit, Cai Die and Gu Yan sat on either side to massage his hands and feet, and Zi Yan stood on his body to massage his back.
"Hey, Yao Chen, Xiao Yan, what are you two doing here instead of focusing on your cultivation?"
Upon seeing their arrival, Fu Ye slowly sat up.
Xun'er and the others also stopped what they were doing, and Zi Yan even nestled in his arms with a docile expression.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan was filled with envy.
Despite his envy, he knew in his heart that these three female devils could only treat Fu Ye with such an attitude.
To his surprise, Xun'er was actually feeding Fu Ye spiritual fruit!
Even though he was the third young master of the Xiao family, he could only eat spiritual fruits once a month.
Not to mention that Xun'er fed it herself.
If word gets out about this, the male disciples of their family will probably be upset for a long time.
Of course, the one who suffered the most was Xiao Yan, who was the first to witness this scene.
He had always held great hope for Xun'er, even after he became a useless person. But now it seemed that Xun'er was drifting further and further away from him.
Yao Chen used his soul power to pat Xiao Yan on the back of the head, bringing him back to his senses.
"Ah, it's like this, I'd like to borrow some start-up capital from you, but it's not much, just a thousand gold coins."
Xiao Yan rubbed his hands together, a hint of flattery on his face.
After all, Fu Ye is currently his only hope of borrowing a thousand gold soul coins. If that doesn't work, he'll probably have no choice but to sell hooks, just like his teacher suggested.
"A thousand gold coins? Why should I lend you a thousand gold coins?"
"Yao Chen, you and I are old friends, you should know very well what kind of person I am."
Hearing Fu Ye's words, Yao Chen's face also showed a bit of helplessness. "As you can see, I am only in soul form now, and Xiao Yan is only at the third level of Dou Qi. We really don't have anything valuable on us."
"Hehe, consider it a favor you owe me. Here's a thousand gold coins."
Xiao Yan was overjoyed to have received the start-up capital, completely oblivious to the hesitant look on Yao Chen's face.
As the two of them left, Zi Yan, sitting in Fu Ye's arms, showed a hint of doubt in her eyes.
"Brother Fu Ye, Xiao Yan is the third young master of the Xiao family, how could he possibly need to borrow a thousand gold coins from you?"
Fu Ye gently pinched her little face. "It's very simple. It's because the resources Xiao Yan used in previous years were all borrowed by his father from all the clan elders."
"The reason why Xiao Yan's cultivation speed is faster than other Xiao family disciples is because he enjoys resources every day that other disciples can only enjoy once a week or even once a month."
As the third young master of the Xiao family and the youngest son of the clan leader Xiao Zhan, Xiao Yan was the one to whom Xiao Zhan poured all his heart and soul.
And Xiao Zhan's reason for doing this is quite simple.
That's because Xiao Yan is engaged to Nalan Yanran, the eldest daughter of the Nalan family.
Although the Xiao family has declined, the Nalan family still has a Dou Wang-level expert in charge.
Xiao Zhan's idea was to use the best resources to cultivate Xiao Yan into a genius who was no less than Nalan Yanran.
In the future, it would be natural for them to form a marriage alliance with the Nalan family.
At that time, the Xiao family will be able to enjoy more cultivation resources by virtue of their sons' status.
Unfortunately, Xiao Yan's fighting spirit mysteriously disappeared within these three years, which made the other elders hate Xiao Yan to the core.
After all, he alone occupied nearly half of the family's cultivation resources, and in the end, he turned himself into a useless person.
"So that's how it is. No wonder I noticed that the elders of the Xiao family were so unhappy with Xiao Yan."
Zi Yan nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
"It's perfectly normal that Xiao Yan can't borrow money. Given his current situation, no one would lend him any money, let alone a thousand gold coins."
Xun'er also shared her insights. Over the years, she had become quite familiar with the Xiao family, but she had not found the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade among them.
However, it cannot be said that she found nothing at all. She found a replica, which was almost indistinguishable from the real thing in terms of texture, but it did not contain the strange energy fluctuations that her father had described.
Now she strongly suspects that the Xiao family's Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade was lost long ago, or that one of the clan's elders sold the genuine article and made a fake to fool future generations.
Three months have passed in the blink of an eye. (End of Chapter)
