Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
This thing cannot offset the resources Xu Zhangqing just gave.
First, large quantity and ample supply.
Second, extremely high quality.
More than that, it is a polite exchange of you give me something, I give you something.
Xu Zhangqing took it in hand, then explained: "I do not have three children, only one; the other two are disciples I accepted in recent years."
Then, he carefully examined the skin of the Wind Biao Horse.
The texture was extremely smooth, without a single bit of roughness or graininess.
Moreover, the seams were seamless; one could not discover them without looking closely.
This Skinning Technique, he had never heard of before; it must be a unique technique from the Central Region.
But one must admit, it is indeed somewhat interesting.
If possible, he could cultivate it in the future.
He always felt its function was not limited to this; it could exert even greater value.
For example, integrating the Skinning Technique into Puppetry — would that not achieve passing off the fake as genuine?
Pei Mo was stunned for a moment, then joked: "From my understanding of you, I originally thought three was already few; I did not expect there to be only one."
Xu Zhangqing clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Haha."
"I suppose it should be that handsome young man?"
"That is my Second Disciple!"
"Then is it the girl with the round, chubby face?"
"That is my Eldest Disciple!"
"Could it be half-human, half..."
"Right, that one is my daughter!"
After hearing this, Pei Mo's gaze went dull, his eyes somewhat unfocused; only after a long while did he refocus, then he took a deep breath and exclaimed in admiration: "Awesome!"
Xu Zhangqing grinned, then shouted toward the outside: "Linglong, Xiang'er, Feng'er, why haven't you come in to thank Senior Uncle Pei!"
Soon, the three little ones ran over from the corridor and quickly entered the living room.
After all these years, Linglong remained petite and cute, not changing much.
Sun Shangxiang had grown a bit taller, her face still carrying baby fat.
Lin Feng was taller than them; his features were gradually opening up, immature yet with a touch of handsomeness.
The three gathered together, cupping their fists and bowing to Pei Mo: "Thank you, Senior Uncle Pei!"
Because Pei Mo had no children of his own, he placed extra importance on his friends' children; he immediately laughed heartily, took out some spirit stones and handed them over: "This time returning, Senior Uncle didn't prepare any good things; you can buy whatever you want yourselves."
The three little ones took them, glanced at each other, and instantly grinned.
Ordinarily, Xu Zhangqing did not give many spirit stones.
After all, they were still young; they could not buy suitable things and would easily spend recklessly.
At this time, Xu Zhangqing incidentally distributed the three pieces of Wind Biao Horse skin to them: "Alright, I still need to chat with your Senior Uncle Pei; don't stay here, go find Wangzai and them to play."
The three little ones held the items and immediately ran out; they left very quickly.
Inside the living room, only Xu Zhangqing and Pei Mo remained again.
Pei Mo shifted his gaze, then said seriously: "I won't say much in thanks; in the future if you need help, as long as I am in the Immortal Sect, I will certainly do my utmost."
Xu Zhangqing smiled, then took out several Communication Talismans: "You also don't rush to leave; we haven't gathered in a long time, let's call everyone over and have a good drink!"
Pei Mo's eyes brightened: "That's wonderful!"
Although his relationship with the other few was average, since the one organizing this drinking gathering was the person before him, he could not refuse.
At least half a year, at most a year, he himself would stay in the Immortal Sect; even if he ultimately broke through to Golden Core, he would not leave quickly, but would stabilize his realm.
To put it bluntly, one more friend is definitely better than one more enemy.
This is also why he previously looked down on Li Sancai, yet later actively made contact.
He asked around; Li Sancai, Zhao Ziyue, and Han Su could all come.
Only Hu Bugui could not come; that brat had left the Immortal Sect.
Xu Zhangqing asked Zhao Ziyue, and only then learned that guy had run off to the Yanguang Sect.
It was also understandable; ever since this sect moved to the Eastern Region, it had maintained contact with Hu Bugui, and both sides had conducted many transactions in the aspect of Spirit Beasts.
To a certain extent, they counted as one of the major clients.
"It's just that I feel this brat has ulterior motives!"
"Old Zhao, what do you mean by this?"
"Old Xu, do you remember that female Golden Core from the Yanguang Sect we had contact with?"
"I have a vague impression, but it was too long ago; I don't remember the name."
"Her name is Lin Xiaoyan; Old Hu has mentioned her many times, and even secretly gave gifts!"
At the wine table, everyone drank and chatted idly.
Anyway, Hu Bugui wasn't there, so Zhao Ziyue immediately started badmouthing him.
Regarding this, Xu Zhangqing could understand.
From very early on, Hu Bugui had always been seeking a Dao Companion.
Pity, either others looked down on him, or he looked down on others.
Though the other party was a Golden Core True Person, and there was a bit of a gap in their cultivation realms, in terms of identity and background, Hu Bugui definitely had the upper hand.
Not only did he have the backing of Dongting Immortal Sect and Spirit Beast Valley, but he was also a disciple of a Golden Core True Person.
Crucially, his friends were either Golden Core Cultivators or Heads.
Once everyone started chatting, it went on until the moon was high in the sky, and the spirit wine had all been drunk.
Afterwards, each returned to their own home.
Xu Zhangqing saw everyone off, then returned to the Second Floor Bedroom.
Lying on the bed, scenes of sensing thunder in the rain during the day kept replaying in his mind.
The thunder power of an ordinary thunderstorm was adapted to too quickly by the spiritual root; to further stimulate the Wood Spirit Root, he had to find a more violent thunderstorm, or even thunderstorm weather.
Or, seek a special venue such as a thunder Secret Realm.
A glimmer of expectation flashed in Xu Zhangqing's eyes; perhaps he could truly trigger the emergence of a Thunder Spirit Root in the process.
Just as he was pondering, a delicate body carrying a faint fragrance suddenly leaned over.
Ruo Qunshuang leaned against him in his embrace, her voice soft: "What are you thinking about, so lost in thought?"
Xu Zhangqing turned to embrace her, his palm brushing over her soft hair, and replied: "I'm thinking, when should we have a child?"
Hearing this, Ruo Qunshuang's fair face quickly flushed with a blush, she raised her head to look at him, her eyes full of affection: "Wait... wait until I break through to Golden Core!"
Xu Zhangqing held her tighter: "Alright, wait until you reach Golden Core."
The night grew deeper.
Hongfeng Valley returned to tranquility.
The maple leaves outside the window swayed gently in the night breeze.
……
……
In the following days, Xu Zhangqing asked around everywhere, wondering who was growing Pure Brightness Grass.
Unexpectedly, there really was an acquaintance growing it.
The Second Senior Brother of Qingmu Peak, Zhou Yan.
His talent in planting and cultivating spirit plants was second only to Xu Zhangqing.
In his Third Grade Spirit Field, there were many rare spirit plants.
In the past, Xu Zhangqing could have gone directly to find his Second Senior Brother at any time.
In private, the two had always talked about topics of cultivating spirit plants.
But later, after Su Qingyao was purged by the Immortal Sect, her daughter Su Tiantian was originally to be expelled from the Immortal Sect, but it was the Second Senior Brother who, through his own efforts, forcibly kept her there.
Therefore, the punishment became the revocation of her Core Disciple status.
This led to the fact that when Xu Zhangqing and his Second Senior Brother met later, on the surface they seemed fine, and could even laugh and joke.
But from then on, they never talked about topics regarding spirit plants again.
To say it had nothing to do with Su Tiantian was obviously not very possible!
