Chapter 148

Yunxiao and her two sisters have already verified it, so there's nothing much, but Jin Ling is going for the first time, so who knows what will happen.

Previously, Master's standard seemed to be magical treasures; back then, he dumped everything in all at once, which was truly impressive.

Yunxiao then explained the matter of the crystal ball in full, after all, it's better to be prepared.

"So there's actually such a strange thing, truly interesting."

Jin Ling nodded, then went back to busy herself for a while.

"This time it should be fine." When it appeared again, Jin Ling was full of confidence.

"Senior Sister, how come you came out so late?" Bixiao asked curiously.

"Nothing much." Jin Ling's expression was light and breezy, as if speaking of trivial matters.

"I just took all the magical treasures bestowed by Haotian upon the Battle Department."

After saying that, she gently patted her waist, indicating to Young Lady to rest assured.

Even Qiong Xiao was left speechless, truly worthy of being the eldest senior sister—her move was grand!

If Yudi Haotian knew the eldest senior sister planned to use these magical treasures as meal money, he might be so angry he'd nearly die.

These are reserved for the Battle Department, the guarantee of its combat power's trump card.

Only this awesome eldest senior sister could pull off such a thing.

"Let's go quickly." Jin Ling urged again.

She just doesn't believe these magical treasures aren't enough for meal money!

"Wait!" Bixiao suddenly spoke up.

"What now?" Jin Ling's face showed a few more signs of impatience.

She was originally an impatient person; being interrupted like this continuously, her mood had long been unpleasant.

"I think we should call one more person." Bixiao said slyly.

In the sky above Lingtai Fangcun Mountain, six people now stood, immortal qi drifting, their aura maxed out.

"So I came just to pay you?" Zhao Gongming laughed, rubbing the back of his head.

His rugged face, tall stature—such actions actually made him look a bit simple-minded.

"Hehe, the more capable, the more work." Bixiao stuck out her tongue, carrying a hint of helplessness.

"Who made Brother Zhao appointed by the Heavenly Court as the Martial God of Wealth? He must be rich!"

"Our share is just a drop in the bucket; besides, you can also buy things in the shop."

Zhao Gongming was somewhat speechless—being the God of Wealth and having money are basically unrelated; although he manages money, this money belongs to the Heavenly Court.

His actual salary isn't much.

But seeing Bixiao like this, Zhao Gongming sighed helplessly—after all, she's his own younger martial sister.

"If Jin Ling Elder Martial Sister and Wu Dang Shengmu's fee standard is silver coins, then Senior Brother, just help out as well."

"Anyway, there's so much money in the Wealth Treasury—losing a bit is no problem." Bixiao encouraged.

Zhao Gongming: "..."

"That's great." Jin Ling laughed heartily.

She has no good feelings toward the Heavenly Court; if Haotian dares to appoint her as the God of Wealth, then if the Heavenly Court still has money, she doesn't deserve to be the God of Wealth.

"I brought it myself, so no need to trouble Shidi." Wu Dang Shengmu shook her head and didn't make things difficult for Zhao Gongming.

Her tranquil and elegant appearance immediately made people feel very at ease.

"Hey!" Seeing Jin Ling Elder Martial Sister accept gladly, Zhao Gongming's expression changed, and he said grandly: "Money—whatever amount you need, I have it as the Martial God of Wealth!"

When Bixiao Younger Martial Sisters was in the Jie Sect, she was only causing minor trouble, but Jin Ling Dajiejie is different.

If you provoke her, you'll regret it for life!

That's about right.

Jin Ling nodded satisfied—this Shidi, not raised in vain!

Yunxiao led the group down the mountain, beginning to search for the location of Chaos Residence, but when they arrived at the spot, Young Lady was dumbfounded.

Chaos Residence?

Looking at the house before them—much larger, quite stylish, and decorated in a classical manner,

Young Lady fell into silence.

"Chaos Residence?"

Zhao Gongming read the restaurant's sign aloud, then furrowed his brows, his face showing a few more signs of displeasure.

"The owner of this shop is really arrogant—actually using 'Chaos' as the shop name."

Even Master doesn't dare use the two characters 'Chaos'; a small restaurant hidden in the deep mountains and old forests dares to speak so boldly—truly reckless!

"They have the capital for it." Qiong Xiao said lightly.

This point, she had already verified long ago—if Zhao Gongming Senior Brother doesn't know what's good for him, he'll just have to suffer the consequences.

"Even Master treats Chen the shopkeeper with great courtesy—this already explains the situation."

"Who can make Master interact on equal terms? In this world, how many are there?" Yunxiao explained softly.

Zhao Gongming Senior Brother has a hasty temper, easily angered, too prone to getting carried away—better to clarify things early, otherwise speaking rudely later might anger Chen the shopkeeper, which would truly be a great sin.

Zhao Gongming heard this, his pupils contracted sharply—even Master wants to be on good terms?

This is too strong!

The anger he had just wanted to vent instantly withdrew; Zhao Gongming hehe laughed.

Instantly restraining his aura, his whole person now looked like a very simple and sturdy big man.

"Senior Brother, you're so timid!" Bixiao said, her mouth never holding back, laughing hehe.

Zhao Gongming's face turned red, neck thick, eyes glaring, he said righteously: "Senior Brother, this isn't timidity—it's following one's true heart."

"You lack experience, you still don't understand some principles—know this: those who achieve great things must possess perseverance and patience."

It's not that Zhao Gongming is cowardly!

These words actually made all the women laugh.

"I didn't expect Junior Brother's cheek to be this thick." Jin Ling smiled, half-narrowing her eyes, speaking playfully.

The tranquil Wu Dang couldn't help but interject: "I think Elder Sister is absolutely right."

The Three Young Ladies rolled their eyes even more.

In terms of relationship, they are on the best terms with Senior Brother Zhao Gongming, yet this is the first time seeing him so timid.

But it's understandable.

After all, Shopkeeper Chen is a master whom even the Master wishes to befriend.

"What do you know?" His eyes darted, Zhao Gongming's expression grew even more reverent.

"The person I, Zhao Gongming, respect most in my life is the Master! One who can make the Master set aside status and befriend as equals must be a senior!"

"I too should pay respect! I must definitely pay a visit!"

Having said that, he took a big step and walked toward the hallway.

Seeing Zhao Gongming like that, the women exchanged smiles and followed his steps.

"Honestly, this table is cleaner than me—why do I have to wipe it every day!" Ao Ling muttered discontentedly, yet her body continued working honestly.

She only dared to mutter a few complaints behind his back after Chen Nuo went to the backyard.

Even after just a few days, the Master's strength and mystery have already been deeply imprinted in her mind.

Besides, just the fact that the Master went to the backyard is already enough to overturn her worldview.

The entire backyard is filled with Pantao trees—it's simply shocking to worldly customs.

I've heard there are many Pantao trees, but their planting method is extremely particular; ordinary immortals, even if they obtain Pantao fruit or seeds, cannot plant them.

This is why the Heavenly Court dares to hold the Peach Banquet.

Yet the Master actually filled the backyard with Pantao trees—this is nothing short of provoking the Heavenly Court, provoking the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.

There is also the only tea tree in the place; though I don't know what kind of tea it is, just one glance can immerse the spirit—surely it's not ordinary.

This act of offending the Heavenly Court, Ao Ling felt no fear, but instead became more steadfast in her belief that the Master is a peerless master.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to so openly plant Pantao trees.
