Chapter 207: Clever Qiongxiao Xianzi

"Is what you're saying true?"

Upon hearing Bixiao Xianzi's words, the Fire Spirit Holy Mother was completely stunned.

"I just said, why has Golden Spirit Senior Sister's strength suddenly increased so much? It turns out it's because of this!"

Seeing that the timing was about right, Bixiao Xianzi said, "Fire Spirit Senior Sister, I can help you introduce that man, but I will need to collect a certain fee; I don't know, are you willing, Senior Sister?"

"Fee? What do you want?"

The Fire Spirit Holy Mother furrowed her brows; she hadn't expected that, after all we're sister disciples, Bixiao Xianzi would still come to me asking for benefits.

"One spiritual treasure will do!"

Bixiao Xianzi raised a finger and said, "All I need is one spiritual treasure, and as your junior sister I can take you to meet that man."

"What? Are you crazy?"

The Fire Spirit Holy Mother exclaimed, "Just introducing a man for me to meet, and you actually want me to give you a spiritual treasure? No way!"

"This..."

Seeing the Fire Spirit Holy Mother's reaction, Bixiao Xianzi was completely stunned.

No, this isn't how the script should go.

My second sister went to the Golden Spirit Holy Mother and easily swindled a spiritual treasure out of her, didn't she?

But when it comes to me, it just doesn't work?

"Fire Spirit Senior Sister..."

Bixiao Xianzi was about to say more, but the Fire Spirit Holy Mother raised her hand to interrupt, saying, "Alright, don't speak of this anymore; I will not agree, and I don't have many spiritual treasures myself—how could I possibly give you one?"

Saying that, the Fire Spirit Holy Mother turned into a streak of fire and shot off into the distance.

Left where she was, Bixiao Xianzi wore a helpless expression.

"Junior sister, you're being unfair—you actually want to steal my method!"

Suddenly, a voice came.

"Second sister, have you finished your seclusion?"

Hearing the voice, Bixiao Xianzi turned her head and saw the suddenly appearing Qiongxiao Xianzi, exclaiming, "Second sister, you've broken through!"

"Yes, good thing my breakthrough was fast enough; otherwise, how would I know that my dear younger sister secretly learned my method and plans to keep the benefits all to herself?"

Qiongxiao Xianzi crossed her arms over her chest and looked at Bixiao Xianzi as she spoke.

Under Qiongxiao Xianzi's gaze, Bixiao Xianzi also felt a bit embarrassed.

Indeed, she did act a bit unfairly in this matter.

But she just wanted to improve too much—there was nothing she could do!

After all, Elder Sister Yunxiao broke through to the Quasi-Sacred Realm early; Second Sister Qiongxiao also swindled a spiritual treasure from the Golden Spirit Holy Mother and has now broken through to the Quasi-Sacred Realm as well.

We had agreed that the three sisters would advance and retreat together, yet now only she remains stuck in place—how could Bixiao Xianzi not be anxious?

"Alright, stop pretending to be wronged—among us three sisters, you have the deepest thoughts!"

Qiongxiao Xianzi pursed her lips and said, "However, you're also quite dull—you can't even grasp the essence of what I teach."

"Second sister, what do you mean by that?"

Bixiao Xianzi's eyes lit up as she looked at Qiongxiao Xianzi and asked.

"Dull!"

Qiongxiao Xianzi gently tapped Bixiao Xianzi's forehead and said, "Everyone calls me a melon, but I think you little girl are the real melon—do you know why, with the same method, I succeed while you fail?"

"Why?"

Bixiao Xianzi asked.

"Dull, that's naturally because I, the second sister, selected my target customers precisely!"

Qiongxiao Xianzi then began to impart her experience to Bixiao Xianzi, covering the personality, cultivation level, financial situation, and generosity of the targets each of them had chosen.

In every aspect, Bixiao Xianzi listened, stunned again and again.

"Second sister, I never realized there were so many intricacies involved!"

Bixiao Xianzi put away the jade slip she had been recording on, looked admiringly at Qiongxiao Xianzi, and said, "Then, following your method, second sister, who should we seek out next?"

"Hanzi Xian!"

Qiongxiao Xianzi said with a serious expression, "She has the softest heart, and I heard that recently..."

……

"The rites are complete!"

With the Deer Boy's words falling, the ceremony in which Taiyi True Person ascended to the position of the Twelve Golden Immortals finally ended.

Of course, throughout the ceremony Taiyi True Person sat on the lotus platform snoring, while Nezha, his personal disciple, took his place to complete it.

Thanks also to Ao Yifan and Lady Yin raising their children well; otherwise, leaving Nezha with his innate nature to such a cumbersome ceremony would truly be impossible to endure.

"Hehe, has it already ended? We haven't arrived late, have we?"

Suddenly, a voice came.

In the next moment, everyone saw Ao Yifan holding Little Crane Sister in his arms, behind him Crane Boy holding one in each hand, leading Little Crane and Little Crane Sister into the hall.

This scene was truly harmonious, exactly like parents taking their children out to play.

"Dad!"

"Daddy!"

"Father!"

"Father!"

"Dad!"

At that moment, Jin Zha, Mu Zha, Ao Qian, Ao Ji, and Ne Zha shouted at once.

At first, some people were still guessing Ao Yifan's identity.

Now, no one needs to guess anymore—this is the legendary man who sent many outstanding disciples to the Chan Teaching!

Fortunately, Cihang Daoist reacted quickly; otherwise, the four little dragon maidens beside her would have spoken up as well.

By then, that scene would have been quite spectacular.

"Hehe, it seems the ritual has already ended; sorry, something delayed me."

Ao Yifan said with a smile.

"Not late at all— not even a bit late!"

Just then, everyone stared in shock as Taiyi True Person, who had just been snoring on the lotus pedestal, leapt down.

Immediately afterward, Taiyi True Person approached Ao Yifan with an agility that belied his appearance.

"Fellow Daoist, you're not late at all; although the ritual has ended, the banquet is about to begin—did you bring the immortal wine you promised?"

"Hehe, of course I brought it!"

Ao Yifan smiled, took out two bottles of immortal wine, and said, "Thank you, True Person, for teaching Nezha all these years; these two bottles of immortal wine are specially prepared for you—I'm sure you'll like them."

Taiyi True Person received the immortal wine, took a sniff, and a look of enjoyment crossed his face.

"Bliss!"

Watching this, Infinite Immortal's grip on his wooden staff creaked.

At this moment, he finally understood—Taiyi True Person had merely been pretending to be drunk earlier.

No wonder all the earlier methods failed to wake him.

After all, you can never wake someone who's only pretending to be drunk!

If he could, Infinite Immortal would really like to kick Taiyi True Person off his position among the Twelve Golden Immortals, make him reflect on his mistakes, and only let him return to that seat once he realizes his error.

Still, the fact remains that Taiyi True Person's seat among the Twelve Golden Immortals was not his own choice.

"Come on, big guy—music, start; dance, start!"

Taiyi True Person, however, was completely unaware of his mistake; after receiving the immortal wine, he was also very excited, and as he let out a cry, celestial music began to play.

At the same time, a group of celestial maidens flew out and began to dance gracefully.
