Chapter 526: Building a Dong Fu

Hearing this, Xu Jie was stunned again, and as for Zhao Zhengping and the others nearby, they could not help but burst out laughing.

"That... I actually know a little about swordsmanship too."

After holding it in for a while, Xu Jie finally said this, damn it, how did I forget that Junior Brother Ye Zhangqing uses a blade?

Over the next few days, Ye Zhangqing was busy shuttling between Divine Sword Peak and Place: Zhu Feng.

Although building the canteen doesn't require him to do it himself, and the sect is fully supportive, Ye Zhangqing can freely use anything from the treasury as long as it's available.

But requesting these still depends on Ye Zhangqing's opinion.

Building the canteen isn't too troublesome; Ye Zhangqing only has two demands for it: it must be big and sturdy.

It just needs to provide enough space for the disciples to eat, and secondly be hard to destroy; that's all.

The troublesome parts are the kitchen and the dong fu.

Since he has become Chief Elder, he naturally needs his own dong fu on Place: Zhu Feng.

Moreover, the specifications and grades are the same as those of Qi Xiong and the others.

The dong fu is relatively troublesome, mainly because Bai Hua Xianzi cares about it extremely.

In her words, this dong fu will be their home in the future, so it cannot be taken lightly.

So these days, Bai Hua Xianzi has been watching the place constantly; especially the elder guarding the treasury, who gets a headache upon seeing her.

Hey, this is already Bai Hua Xianzi's fifth visit to the sect treasury today.

Upon spotting Bai Hua Xianzi from afar, the elder in charge of guarding the treasury nearly burst into tears, saying with a look of utter despair:

"I say, Bai Hua Peak Master, what exactly are you trying to do? If you keep this up, the sect treasury will be emptied."

"My dong fu is lacking some things; how come, Senior Brother, you said you'd fully support it?"

"It is full support, but not to this extent."

This elder is really at his wit's end; are you building a dong fu or rebuilding the whole sect?

You know, even Qi Xiong's dong fu consumes far less material and treasure than one-fifth of what Bai Hua Xianzi uses.

Most importantly, we still don't know how much will ultimately be consumed.

In just these days, the treasures in the treasury have been flowing out like water.

If it weren't that he can't beat Bai Hua Xianzi, this elder would surely curse, "You spendthrift women!"

Facing the elder's lament, Bai Hua Xianzi completely didn't care and casually said:

"I'm just taking a few night pearls; what's the big deal?"

"Night pearls? Granny, you've already taken over seven hundred of them—are you afraid of the dark?"

What kind of dong fu needs seven hundred night pearls? Are you using them as floor tiles?

This elder is truly speechless, yet in the end he can only watch helplessly as Bai Hua Xianzi takes away another hundred-plus night pearls.

Watching Bai Hua Xianzi's retreating back, wanting to cry but with no tears, he inwardly pleads that she really not come again.

Returning from the sect treasury, not only is that elder weary, but at this moment even the stewards of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall feel their scalps tingling.

Because this dong fu is truly over the top.

It was originally built according to the standard of a Chief Elder, but now it's completely different.

Just look inside the dong fu—small bridges, flowing water, and exquisite treasures are everywhere.

The pavilion is built of ten-thousand-year golden silk nanmu, the rockery of East Sea cold ice stone, and even the ground bricks are the finest blue-pattern bricks.

Not to mention the interior décor, which is so flashy it could blind a dog's eyes.

But none of that matters; the most excessive part is that Bai Hua Xianzi also wants to inscribe formations and plant spiritual grasses and trees.

She claims having these in the dong fu will aid Ye Zhangqing's cultivation.

To that end, she specially invited Zhāng Tiānzhèn, Mu You, and Chen Bing.

Zhāng Tiānzhèn and Mu You are quite familiar to her, while Chen Bing is the Peak Master of Weapon Refiner Peak and the unique Ninth-Rank Artifact Refiner of the Dao Yi Sect.

At that moment inside the dong fu, upon hearing Bai Hua Xianzi's words, the three all stared wide-eyed.

"What did you say? Have me set up a Nine Heavens Gathering Spirit Formation?"

"You want me to craft the furniture myself?"

Zhāng Tiānzhèn and Chen Bing widened their eyes, "Is this woman crazy? A single dong fu, and you want to craft nearly a hundred ninth-rank formations?"

"And the furniture—you actually want Chen Bing to make it by hand?"

"A Ninth-Rank Artifact Refiner making furniture? You're joking."

Still, the most speechless is Mu You, because Bai Hua Xianzi wants his cherished bodhi fruit tree.

You know, that bodhi fruit tree is Mu You's lifeline.

He has personally tended it all along; even his dao partner rarely touches it, and after years of careful care, only two remain.

Bai Hua Xianzi's reason is that the bodhi fruit tree can calm the mind and soothe the spirit, so her husband can sleep better at home.

Damn it, my bodhi fruit tree—there are only these two in all of Dongzhou, and you're using them just so Ye Zhangqing can sleep better?

The three's first reaction was to firmly refuse, saying it's bullying, outright bullying.

Seeing the three's excited expressions, Bai Hua Xianzi wasn't in a hurry; she slowly raised a finger and said lightly:

"One small stove."

"This Bai Hua Junior Sister, it's not a matter of one or two meals; you're really making things difficult."

"Two meals."

"Junior Sister, I already said this isn't about eating."

"Three meals."

"With such a huge dong fu, if I have to craft all the furniture myself, I won't have anything to do for a whole month."

"Four meals."

I tell you, ah, junior sister, this bodhi fruit tree is my life; you can move me, but you cannot move my bodhi fruit tree.

One price, seven meals.

Deal.

Okay.

Junior sister, wait, I'll dig up the bodhi fruit tree for you tonight. By the way, I want to eat boiled fish today; trouble you to tell the evergreen kid.

Finally, under Bai Hua Xianzi's food temptation, the three people happily agreed.

Isn't it just over ninety ninth-grade formations? Isn't it just personally crafting a batch of furniture? Isn't it just wanting my bodhi fruit tree? Trivial, all trivial.

Seeing the three people nod and agree, Bai Hua Xianzi smiled and thanked.

As for whether her words count, the Mu You three people simply have no doubt.

After all, we're all people sharing a bed; how could the evergreen kid not listen to his own wife?

But the three people don't know; in order to get them to nod, Bai Hua Xianzi also spent a lot.

On the surface smiling, but secretly cursing.

"Again, I don't know what new tricks that dead ghost wants to play."

Bai Hua Xianzi indeed has a way to deal with Ye Zhangqing, but given his personality of plucking feathers when a goose passes, kicking a dog when it passes, he definitely won't give something without getting something.

As for what the payment is, Bai Hua Xianzi can guess; it's nothing but those strange weird games, also don't know where she learned them, will have so many variations, and each time embarrasses a person.
