Chapter 5 Temporary Stay at the Xiao Family Residence

Inside the black jade box, a pill emitting a bluish light slowly floated up, releasing a refreshing fragrance.

It was this overflowing fragrance of the elixir that caused Xiao Zhan's cultivation level to weaken.

Inside the ring, Yao Chen stroked his goatee, thinking to himself that this little girl was quite generous, even giving away an eighth-grade pill.

It should be noted that refining an eighth-grade pill is extremely difficult. Not only does it require a very high level of alchemist skill, but the materials used are also extremely rare and hard to find.

Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan had previously thought that the fourth-grade Qi Gathering Pill that Yunlan Sect had offered was already something that was hard to come by, but they never expected that the mysterious girl would casually give them out the legendary eighth-grade pill!

Eighth-grade pills... those are things that even Dou Zong experts would go crazy for!

Who exactly is this girl? She gives away eighth-grade pills so easily, without even flinching.

This attitude made it seem as if, in her eyes, an eighth-grade elixir was no different from a Qi-gathering powder.

Xiao Yan was shocked for a long time before he forced himself to calm down. He wasn't blinded by the joy of the eighth-grade pill; instead, he was exceptionally clear-headed. "Eighth-grade pills are good, but I'm not even a Dou Zhe yet. How can I withstand such a massive medicinal power!"

"I've naturally considered that, so you can rest assured."

Hun Qing waved her little hand calmly.

"I have placed a seal on the Poria Cocos Elixir, leaving only a small amount of medicinal power to help you restore your cultivation. As your cultivation gradually improves, the seal will naturally unlock, and the remaining medicinal power will nourish your body!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan felt relieved, but his grip on the black jade box tightened continuously.

Although the little witch is a bit domineering, she is indeed generous, giving away eighth-grade pills without batting an eye.

Thank you!

Although it was just a transaction, Xiao Yan still thanked Hun Qinghao.

It was because of his attitude that Hun Qinghao developed a slight liking for Xiao Yan.

"Alright, I'll be staying for a few days at the Xiao family's. You won't refuse, will you?" The young woman stood up and walked down the steps, her clear and melodious voice echoing in the quiet hall.

Xiao Zhan was taken aback, then wiped the cold sweat from his brow. "Uh... of course not, it's an honor for the Xiao family!"

"That's good. I'll stay in the courtyard next to Xiao Yan's." Hun Qinghao pointed at Xiao Yan and said, "These three Qi Gathering Pills are my payment for staying at your Xiao family's residence!"

As soon as he finished speaking, three black jade boxes were thrown from Hun Qinghao's hand and landed in front of Xiao Zhan.

Seeing the generous reward, Xiao Zhan completely forgot his resentment at losing the ancient jade and cheerfully instructed Xiao Yan, "Yan'er, quickly take this one..."

Xiao Zhan suddenly stopped. He didn't even know the mysterious girl's name, so he asked gently, "May I ask how I should address you, Miss?"

"My name is Hun Qing."

"So it's Miss Qing! Yan'er, quickly take Miss Qing to her courtyard!"

"Yes," Xiao Yan replied. He had thought the little devil would leave after achieving her goal, but he hadn't expected her to stay at the Xiao family.

It's really reassuring for the father to leave such a time bomb in the Xiao family. However, considering how generous the little witch is, he reluctantly agreed to lead the way for her.

If the little witch continues to be this generous, Xiao Yan wouldn't mind letting her stay at the Xiao family's residence.

…………

The barrier was removed, the main hall doors opened, and the Xiao family members waiting outside eagerly awaited their arrival.

When everyone saw that Xiao Yan was the first to walk out, the tension in their minds immediately eased.

Phew! Thank goodness, the Third Young Master is alright and seems quite relaxed, so the Clan Chief must be alright too!

Seeing that Xiao Yan was alright, Xiao Xun'er's tense heart immediately relaxed. However, the silver-haired girl who came out next made Xiao Xun'er extremely disliked.

The people from the Soul Hall are all bad news!

Hun Qing seemed to sense Xiao Xun'er's displeasure, and his sharp gaze shot straight at her, striking her soul.

Xiao Xun'er felt a jolt in her heart, and a sharp pain shot through her soul.

"How could this be? Her soul power... how could it be so formidable?"

One glance was enough to pierce her soul!

Xiao Xun'er's eyes widened, her shock beyond words.

Seeing Xiao Xun'er's incredulous expression, Hun Qinghao's lips curled into a cold smile. Even though she was sealed by the Heavenly Dao due to the world's rejection, her soul was still terrifyingly strong.

If she hadn't held back, Xiao Xun'er would have suffered far more than just a soul-piercing pain.

Yao Chen, who was inside the ring, also sensed this powerful soul force and couldn't help but show regret.

Possessing a terrifying strange fire and with incredibly powerful soul strength, this little girl is simply his most perfect disciple!

It's just a pity... she's from the Soul Palace!

Given the nature of the Soul Palace, there's absolutely no way they'd let him, a soul entity, go. He should just mourn for himself!

"Let's go, Miss Qing, I'll take you to my courtyard first." Xiao Yan tilted his head toward the girl behind him.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xun'er's alarm bells went off. She immediately went to Xiao Yan's side and asked with a slight smile, "Brother Xiao Yan, why did you bring this Miss Qing to your courtyard?"

Xiao Yan smiled faintly, not hiding the truth, "Miss Qing helped me restore my cultivation talent, so I will be staying at the Xiao family for the time being."

These words caused an uproar among the Xiao family members, who at that moment had only one thought in their minds.

That is... Xiao Yan's talent has been restored, and the genius of the past is coming back!

No one questioned the truthfulness of Xiao Yan's words, because Xiao Yan would not tell such a huge lie in public, especially in front of a mysterious powerful figure.

"Really? That's wonderful!" Xiao Xun'er was first surprised, then overjoyed, and even Hun Qinghao seemed much more pleasing to the eye.

She was willing to get along harmoniously with anyone who helped Xiao Yan, regardless of their identity.

Afterwards, Xiao Yan took Hun Qinghao to the courtyard. Xiao Xun'er felt a sense of crisis and did not want Hun Qinghao to be alone with her Xiao Yan brother, so she followed them.

As soon as they left, the Xiao family elders led their clansmen into the hall in a swarm, and then they saw Xiao Zhan holding a Qi-gathering powder and laughing foolishly.

Next, the Xiao family learned what had happened from Xiao Zhan, and they were all shocked to the point of questioning their existence, but a moment later they were overjoyed.

The Xiao family is about to rise again!

…………

The Xiao family acted swiftly, quickly clearing out the courtyard next to Xiao Yan.

Hun Qinghao led the two Heavenly Venerables behind her into the courtyard. Xiao Yan wanted to go in, but she stopped him outside.

"Hmph, you should stay with your little childhood sweetheart. I don't want to see you!" Hun Qing proudly raised her head, her words utterly merciless.

All the proud daughters of heaven like Xiao Yan, but she just doesn't. Xiao Yan is not her type at all!

Xiao Yan was completely bewildered, wondering what he had done to offend this little devil. They were fine just a moment ago, so why did she suddenly get angry?

Xiao Xun'er, however, smiled. After a brief observation, she realized that the young master of the Soul Palace did not like Brother Xiao Yan, which put her at ease!
