"what?"

Su Yan and Princess Wuxi, who was standing next to her, both exclaimed "Ah!" and looked at their aunt with puzzled expressions after hearing her talk about the business plan.

"Auntie, why do I feel like your plan is so well-thought-out, it doesn't seem like you just came up with it?"

"Ahem." Auntie coughed lightly twice:

"The little fox was hopping and skipping around in the brothel, and when my aunt saw it, she couldn't help but think all sorts of things."

Chapter 477 Auntie, I'm scared.

The negotiations for the marriage between the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Dragon Clan gradually came to a close inside the Hall of Ten Thousand Generations.

The nine-tailed fox and the dragon clan returned to their respective territories and began preparing for their grandest wedding banquet, sending out invitations to the leaders of various powerful factions.

The name of the Dragon Father was followed by a parenthesis, which clearly indicated his Celestial-Human attribute, leaving the other faction leaders or clan chiefs speechless.

Among them were some who had once coveted the Dragon Clan's power, which had offered bounties to hunt down Dragon Father. Now, upon seeing Dragon Father's ultimate evolution into a Celestial Being, they all showed expressions of great astonishment.

The dragon race is defying the heavens! The number of celestial beings has already exceeded five fingers.

"It hasn't even been half a month yet," said Elder Tao Hong, who was still staying in Xia Yu Li. She was among the first to know about the marriage between the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Dragon Clan, and she also knew what kind of background Su Yan, whom she had fought on the rooftop a week ago, had that made Princess Wu Xi so highly regard him.

"That little fox's identity is not just extraordinary, it's absolutely mind-blowing. Who could have imagined that a nine-tailed fox, who reveres pure love and purity, would one day publicly announce a marriage alliance between the nine-tailed fox and the dragon clan?"

Elder Tao Hong looked at the letter in her hand, rubbed her head as if piecing together her shattered worldview, and glanced at her disciple who had delivered the letter, saying:

"Draft a letter and send it directly to the sect leader about what happened here. Whether it's cutting in line or grabbing a spot, ask for a ship's hull and deliver it to that little fox on the day Ao Renlin and Su Qing meet."

"The princess really wasn't lying to me; that fox's identity is truly extraordinary."

Elder Tao Hong was unaware of what was happening inside, which led to the marriage alliance between the Kingdom of Qingqiu and the Overlord of the Endless Sea.

However, as the offspring of their marriage and with a father from the Celestial Realm, Su Yan was undoubtedly one of the types of people the Weapon Sect would choose to win over.

Winning over the Dragon Father and Dragon Mother is largely pointless according to the rules of the Artifact Sect; it would only be icing on the cake. It would be better to befriend their offspring. This way, one can gain the Dragon Father's favor without incurring too much cost.

Therefore, Elder Tao Hong wrote to the sect leader, asking the sect to make a special exception and send over a ship's hull.

The ship's embryo was to be given to Su Yan as a wedding gift to congratulate Dragon Father and Dragon Mother on the day of their marriage.

"The cultivation world is too crazy."

Elder Peach Blossom shifted her buttocks slightly, pulled out the futon from beneath her and tossed it aside, then lay directly on the cool couch, muttering with a face full of emotion and disbelief:

"Who would have thought that a nine-tailed fox, who loves pure blood and pure, selfless love, would walk with the dragon race, which is so numerous and widespread that its population is countless? I'm starting to wonder if I'm still half asleep."

………………

With the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Dragon Clan sending their letters, various forces have become aware of the marriage alliance between the two clans, and some well-informed individuals have also learned of the major moves by the upper echelons of the cultivation world.

The most intuitive reaction is

"Old Bug, come open the door quickly! I've brought my niece over for you. Let Xiaoyan come and see if she likes my precious niece."

"Yeah, Old Bug, hurry up and open the door. We're all friends here to support your business. We're all itching to play some cards."

“My niece isn’t suitable, but my daughter will do. Although there’s an eighty-year age gap, my daughter looks like a young woman in her late teens. If you touch her bottom, she’ll blush and say ‘you’re so annoying.’”

During the day, the area outside Ruchun Garden should have been deserted and quiet, but as news of the marriage alliance between the two divine beast clans spread, a group of Auntie's friends have now gathered outside Ruchun Garden, coaxing her to stop sealing the door and open it quickly.

We're friends, and I've been patronizing your business. How can you refuse to see anyone?

"Tang Muxu, ptooey! Tang Sanhua, you've gone too far with those words! And you even touched my blushing face! Just last month you were complaining that your daughter broke your husband's leg!"

The charade outside the door was incessant. Aunt and Su Yan were both squatting on the fourth-floor windowsill. They were initially unwilling to pay attention to the ladies' charade, but as their pretexts became more and more outlandish, Aunt finally couldn't help but jump onto the windowsill and start cursing at Tang Muxu, who was saying she was introducing her niece to Su Yan.

Her niece is pretty, but that's all; she's not particularly outstanding.

Tang Muxu's daughter has been married four times, divorced twice, drowned one child in an accident, and is raising three children. I can't believe your 18-year-old daughter is so charming. Do you think I don't know that your eldest grandson is already over 30?

You've gone too far by introducing this!

"Anyway, Old Bug, open the door! It's not good to leave us hanging like this. If outsiders see this, they'll think something's happened here and all come and crowd around."

"I won't listen, I won't listen."

After scolding Old Tang, Auntie retreated back into the house and closed the only windowsill that wasn't covered with wire mesh.

"Auntie, maybe we shouldn't sell tickets?" Su Yan swallowed hard and said, "I feel like they want to make double the money off me."

"These days, I'm afraid those old women will grab your butt and start biting it," my aunt rolled her eyes and complained.

"I haven't even put up a sign or started selling tickets yet, and I'm already getting scared from all the money people are giving me as a gift."

My aunt now has to admit that she really underestimated how abnormal Fellow Daoist Xia Yu was.

Upon learning of Su Yan's identity, he ran to his tea table and started talking about how much silver it would cost per day if Su Yan were to reveal his true form as a nine-tailed fox.

Auntie knew perfectly well what that woman with the obsessive love for Fu Rui was thinking. She was so scared that she clung to Su Yan to sleep that night, afraid that when she woke up, Su Yan would have a gag in his mouth, his eyes rolled back, his belly facing the sky, and his fox-like feet twitching unconsciously.

........................

"I'm going out. Is there anything I need to buy?"

The older aunt came out of the dormitory, swayed her body, looked up at the younger aunt upstairs, and asked a question.

"There's nothing to buy." Seeing her aunt come out of the dormitory, the younger aunt's eyes lit up. She handed the fox-shaped Su Yan to her aunt and said:

"I just need to ask my aunt for help to secretly take the little fox out. I'm afraid that when I go out to deal with those women, someone will sneak up behind my house and block the door every day. It's not a good thing."

The Xia people's fascination with fox spirits originated from Empress Dowager You Su, and was further developed by Emperor Wu Sheng. Fox spirits refer to nine-tailed foxes. Which Xia people didn't want to marry a nine-tailed fox and establish an everlasting empire like Emperor Yu the Great in the cultivation world?

The only difference between me and Emperor Yu of Xia is that I have a nine-tailed fox to protect my home!

Previously, there was neither the opportunity nor the courage to do so, but now a living, wild nine-tailed fox has appeared in Xia Yu City.

The opportunity to establish a powerful empire was right before their eyes, so how could well-informed ladies possibly let it pass? They would make sure to get in touch with the opportunity before making any decisions.

"Row."

The aunt nodded, lifted her sleeve and rolled Su Yan into it, saying, "Hold on tight, it'll be a bit bumpy when we climb over the wall later."

Watching her aunt and Su Yan leave, the younger aunt gave a cold smile and looked towards the brothel gate, saying:

"Nanwu, remove the wire mesh from the door and let those old women in to give us extra food."

"By the way, Auntie, I just received a letter from the family. My mother asked me to ask you if you rent out brothels. We'd like to rent one for the winter."

Chapter 478 An Encounter at the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion (Third Update, Please Vote)

"It's safe now, come out!"

The aunt who came out of Ruchun Garden had arrived in front of the street where the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion was located in the blink of an eye. She gently shook her sleeve and revealed Su Yan, who was hidden in her sleeve.

Su Yan tugged at his aunt's sleeves with both hands, his short legs instinctively stretching outwards, as if searching for the sense of security of having his feet firmly on the ground. Such behavior stemmed from his instincts before he possessed extraordinary powers. Even now, with the ability to fly and burrow underground, some subconscious behaviors cannot be changed immediately.

The auntie looked at the little fox peeking out from under her sleeve, its short legs tugging at the cuff. A black line appeared on her forehead as she spoke, offering a warning:

“We’re right on the ground now. With my height, you could just jump down and you wouldn’t get hurt. Besides, what Golden Core cultivator is afraid of heights?”

"It's not that I'm afraid of heights, it's just that I feel there are always some dirty things trying to get my fur dirty in places I can't see, and it's troublesome to clean them."

Su Yan jumped to the ground, transformed into human form, wiped the sweat from his cheeks and said, "Normally I can use my spiritual sense to explore places that my eyes cannot reach, but when I'm hiding in my aunt's sleeve, I can't use my spiritual sense."

"By the way, Auntie, are you here to buy something?"

After taking in the surroundings, Su Yan realized that he was in front of the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion. He immediately smiled and asked his aunt if she wanted to buy anything.

When Su Yan visited the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion before, she was treated as a VIP because of Princess Wuxi. She enjoyed high discounts on all her purchases and sales, which was one of the special privileges that the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion manager was giving to the royal family.

"What's there to buy here? I just came here to consign some junk," the aunt said, waving her hand.

The Prideful Insect Clan often "found" items from humans of unknown purpose, and Pingfeng Mountain is a large spiritual plant garden overflowing with spiritual plants and fruits. Auntie's visit to the Xia Yu Dynasty was because she knew the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion was holding a no-fault event for the Myriad Spirits Gathering.

Sweep up all the junk in the house, and while you're at it, take the trash from other members of the clan with you, pack it all up and throw it at the treasure appraisal pavilion to see how many kilograms of spirit stones it can be weighed to take home.

Led by his aunt, Su Yan arrived at the lobby on the first floor of the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion. It was like entering a shopping mall, with shops of several dozen square meters each selling or recycling different items. There were weapon shops, while spiritual plants and fruits belonged to different shops.

Even elixirs are categorized and sold in different shops within the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion. The categories of body tempering, spirit gathering, healing, and secret techniques are different, and you need to go to the corresponding shop if you want to sell items.

"What? A single Pingfeng Mountain Spirit Fruit costs two thousand? Aren't you just taking advantage of my honesty?"

Led by his aunt, Su Yan arrived at the center of the shopping plaza, where a stage had been set up, with banners around it reading "Ping Fengshan Special".

Upon arriving at the Pingfengshan specialty store, Su Yan heard a very familiar voice and was immediately startled. He stood on tiptoe to look at the person who had just made the startled sound: "Brother Wen?"

Wen Juntong, who was arguing with the appraiser, turned his head upon hearing this and said with a look of surprise, "Brother Su, come over here! Please come over and judge this for me. My little pig took a bite of their wild fruit and they actually charged me two thousand catties of spirit stones!"

"Isn't this just taking advantage of my honesty to fleece me?"

"I've always said that the dead pig you raised should be roasted and eaten, but you just wouldn't believe me," Zhou You, standing next to Wen Juntong, complained.

"Young Master Su"

When the appraiser saw Su Yan, the favorite of Princess Wuxi, approaching, the staff of the Treasure Pavilion immediately smiled wryly and began to explain, "The spiritual fruit that Shan Huan was munching on is not the wild fruit that the young master mentioned. It is a kind of fruit that grows in the place where yin and yang meet. It produces two fruits every fifty years. The one that grows on the sunny side is called Yangqi Fruit, and the one that grows on the shady side is called Yinqi Fruit. They can be used to refine the pills that the Earth Immortal couple want to contain new life."

"These items are consigned by customers; we did not intend to make things difficult for them."

"Two thousand spirit stones is too expensive." Wen Juntong complained, "You didn't say you wouldn't compensate, but you just quoted two thousand without any discount, and you don't even allow me to go home and get spirit stones? Is that reasonable?"

"Your friend?"

The aunt squeezed into the crowd, roughly understood what had happened, and looked at Su Yan to ask.

"These are friends I met when I first arrived in Xia Yu," Su Yan began, introducing them to her aunt: "Wen Juntong, and Zhou You, whom you've met several times before."

"Since they're friends, let's just leave it at that. Just tell him to keep a close eye on his pet." When Su Yan acknowledged that Wen Juntong was a friend, the aunt said to the appraiser's shop assistants, "Two spirit fruits make a set. It's hard to sell if we're short one, so we'll give them to you too, young friend."

Although the Pride Insect Clan is often called bandits, those are just the words of the victims.

The Pride Insect Clan operates businesses with no initial investment and is quite loyal to their friends. When Su Yan said that Wen Juntong was his friend, Auntie decided not to pursue the matter of Shan Huan eating her spirit fruit any further.

If Wen Juntong hadn't known Su Yan, today he would have either paid double or left Shan Huan behind for his aunt to have a treat at noon; no matter who came, it wouldn't have mattered.

Who told him to eat his own spiritual fruit before the price was agreed upon? And it was a spiritual fruit from within Pingfeng Mountain! If you're so capable, buy the exact same one to make up for it, otherwise you'd better wait to be ripped off!
