Chapter 224: Greedy Without Knowing It

After the midnight hour passed and the New Year's Eve vigil ended, each branch of the Hua family returned to their own rooms.

Hua Changxi followed Hua Minghe and Yao Shi into their room. Hua Liulang saw this and hurriedly pulled Hua Dalang and Hua Sanlang in.

"Father, Mother, this is the New Year's gift I prepared for the family. You can take it out tomorrow and distribute it to everyone."

After entering the room, Hua Changxi took out the body-refining medicinal materials she had prepared, as well as three bamboo baskets of spiritual essence fruits, jade skin fruits, and yuan yang fruits.

"Spiritual fruits are for strengthening and nourishing the flesh. Spiritual essence fruits can be eaten by everyone, jade skin fruits are suitable for women, and yuan yang fruits are suitable for men."

Hua Liulang saw hundreds of spiritual fruits taken out at once and smiled until his eyes narrowed. He picked up a yuan yang fruit and started gnawing on it: "Hmm, the taste of this spiritual fruit is not bad." While speaking, he also stuffed one to Hua Dalang and Hua Sanlang.

"Father, Mother, you eat too."

Yao Shi looked at the younger son who was not polite at all, glared at him with a smile, and then looked at Hua Changxi: "You child, why didn't you take it out when the family was all there just now?"

"Your second uncle and the others would also remember your kindness if they saw what you prepared."

Hua Changxi was uninterested: "I don't need them to remember my kindness. It's enough that they accept your and Father's feelings."

Yao Shi disagreed: "Although a family doesn't need to be too calculating, your intentions should still be known to everyone. Rest assured, leave this matter to Mother, and I will ensure everyone in the family remembers your kindness."

After speaking, she excitedly started distributing spiritual fruits with Hua Sanlang and Hua Liulang.

Hua Minghe and Hua Dalang, however, heard something else from Hua Changxi's words.

Both father and son worked in the government office with complex relationships and were better at guessing people's hearts and observing words and expressions.

Ninth Sister's behavior was just like those in power in the government office; they would only bestow favors on those who entered their eyes.

Ninth Sister's indifference to the family made both of them feel uncomfortable.

Ninth Sister's indifference to the Hua family made both of them feel uncomfortable.

Hua Minghe and Hua Dalang looked at Hua Changxi, who looked indifferent, and their moods were complicated.

Ninth Sister's indifference to the Hua family made both of them feel uncomfortable.

Hua Minghe hesitated but couldn't help asking about the secret realm: "Ninth Sister, many people should know that you obtained the Divine Tree secret realm. What are your plans?"

Hua Changxi: "I haven't thought about it yet."

Hua Liulang heard about the secret realm and stopped distributing spiritual fruits. He walked to Hua Changxi's side and sat down: "Ninth Sister, what is the Divine Tree secret realm like? I haven't entered a secret realm yet. Take me and our family in to visit."

Hua Changxi refused directly: "No, unless you are a person of the Pill Saint Hall, otherwise, I will not let you enter the Divine Tree secret realm."

Seeing her refuse so decisively, Hua Minghe and Yao Shi quickly looked at each other, and Hua Dalang and Hua Sanlang also looked at each other with flickering eyes.

Hua Liulang didn't think much and said directly: "Our family is all willing to become disciples of the Pill Saint Hall. Ninth Sister, take us in."

Hua Changxi didn't mind Hua Liulang's straightforward personality and smiled: "To become a disciple of the Pill Saint Hall, there are definitely conditions."

"Wait until I think clearly about how to manage the secret realm, and I will tell the family."

"At that time, if the family is willing to join and meets the conditions, I will also recommend the virtuous without avoiding relatives."

The first and second layers of the Divine Tree secret realm had 150 million mu of medicine fields, which required a large number of cultivators to farm.

Hua Liulang smiled: "Our family is definitely willing."

Hua Changxi looked at him: "Sixth Brother, didn't you say you like refining instruments? The Pill Saint Hall is a place for alchemy."

Hua Liulang's face fell: "I want to learn refining, but isn't there no one to teach me."

Hua Changxi smiled: "I do know a refiner."

Hua Liulang was happy: "Really? Is that person powerful?"

Hua Changxi was speechless: "More than enough to teach you. And whether they will accept you or not is still unknown. You are still picking."

Hua Dalang suddenly opened his mouth: "Is that person from the Instrument Saint Palace?"

Hearing this, Hua Liulang's eyes widened.

Hua Changxi looked at Hua Dalang: "Why does Big Brother ask this?"

Hua Dalang: "You appeared outside the alchemy workshop last time, and I felt it was too coincidental."

Hua Changxi: "Such a big thing happened in the alchemy workshop, it's normal for me to go and join in the fun."

Hua Dalang looked at her and didn't say anything more.

What he didn't say was that at that time, he saw his sister with a male cultivator.

During the period when the Demon Suppression Army sealed off the alchemy workshop, he saw that male cultivator wandering outside the alchemy workshop several times.

Hua Changxi didn't say anything more either.

Although Hua Liulang's personality was more direct, he was not stupid. Although Ninth Sister didn't respond directly to Big Brother, based on his understanding of Ninth Sister, this non-response was a response.

"Ninth Sister, then when will you take me to apprentice?"

Hua Changxi looked at her Sixth Brother, whose eyes were burning: "You have to wait for me to ask for the other person's opinion first."

Hua Liulang laughed: "Yes, yes, yes, you ask first. However, you must speak more good words for me. My talent is still good."

Hua Changxi glared at him, got up and looked at Hua Minghe and the four: "Father, Mother, Big Brother, Third Brother, I'm going back to my room, you all rest early too."

After Hua Changxi left the room, Hua Sanlang looked at the silly smiling Hua Liulang and said sourly to Hua Minghe and Yao Shi: "Ninth Sister is closest to Sixth Brother, and she thinks of everything for him."

"The fire spirit mine is handed over to Sixth Brother to manage, and Sixth Brother wants to learn refining, and she also keeps an eye on the sect for him. Big Brother and I, she doesn't care."

Hearing this sour talk, Hua Minghe and Yao Shi hadn't reacted, but Hua Liulang didn't do it first.

"Third Brother, what you said is unreasonable. Whatever I want, I will tell Ninth Sister, and Ninth Sister has the ability, so she helps me, her Sixth Brother."

"Big Brother and you, if you want Ninth Sister to help you, you have to speak up first. Do you want Ninth Sister to satisfy you on her own initiative?"

Yao Shi looked at the three sons: "Sixth Brother is right. You are all Ninth Sister's older brothers, and she will not favor one over the other."

Hua Dalang frowned: "I have spoken, but Ninth Sister is unwilling."

Hua Liulang looked at him: "Big Brother, you are not asking Ninth Sister for help, you are ordering Ninth Sister to do things according to your ideas in the capacity of an older brother."

"What is help?"

"It is that Ninth Sister has what you want in her hands, and then she leaks a little bit to you, which is called help."

"And Big Brother, what do you want?"

"You and Grandfather want everything in Ninth Sister's hands. It would be strange if she gave it to you."

Hua Liulang looked at Hua Dalang and said seriously: "Big Brother, have you discovered that you and Grandfather are very greedy, and you are greedy without knowing it."

Hua Dalang was stunned by what he said, and Hua Minghe, Yao Shi, and Hua Sanlang also looked at Hua Liulang in astonishment.

They didn't expect that the person who saw things most clearly in the eldest branch was actually Hua Liulang, who was straightforward in everything.

Hua Liulang saw that his parents and brothers were all shocked by his words, and he was quite proud in his heart.

Hmph, he had learned a lot from dealing with Old You and others in the Sancha Medicine Valley, and he was no longer the "Wu Xia A Meng" (someone who is not well-read). ===== CHAPTER 225 =====
