Chapter 156: with translation of chapter title

Xuanqing Daozhang, you said that the words "son-in-law" are premature!

Luo Taiqing smiled and wasn't angry.

Not only because of Xuanqing Daozhang's status, but also because of how much he values Wang Ping'an.

Originally.

I heard that when Wang Ping'an was born, a spirit cat protected him, and I also recalled that his father had placed third in the imperial examinations; although he had divorced his wife, he has now even attached himself to the Prime Minister's Daughter.

He probably won't care whether Wang Ping'an lives or dies!

Perhaps if the Prime Minister's Daughter knew there was still someone like Wang Ping'an, she might deliberately suppress him, but he doesn't care; what he cares about is Wang Ping'an, not Wang Ping'an's father, and certainly not the Prime Minister's Daughter.

Although.

Whether it's Wang Ping'an's father or the Prime Minister's Daughter, if there's an opportunity to make connections, he would be willing to do so, but the problem is……

He knows his own worth; he's just a small-town landowner.

Whether it's the third-place winner or the Prime Minister's Daughter, neither would likely look down on him.

He probably doesn't even have the qualifications to enter their gate!

Fortunately.

He lives by the old saying: dragons beget dragons, phoenixes beget phoenixes!

With Wang Ruhai as a third-place winner, how could Wang Ping'an as his son possibly be lacking?

This is one of the reasons he originally wanted Wang Ping'an to be his son-in-law.

Afterward.

After various events, he now learns from Luo Liang that Luo Quan does not intend to take Wang Ping'an as a disciple; this time he came to retrieve the gift he gave Wang Ping'an, which does not mean he intends to renege on the marriage.

Although.

Even the childhood engagement hasn't been set!

He naturally, due to his conflict with Xuanqing Daozhang, has affected the marriage alliance with the Wang family.

"Ping'an looks much bigger now!"

Luo Taiqing strode into the hall and at once saw Wang Ping'an in the cradle; his eyes lit up instantly.

He didn't know whether it was Wang Ping'an's innate extraordinariness or the news about him that had affected him.

He found the chubby Wang Ping'an lying asleep in the cradle even more pleasing to the eye.

Seeing there was no good show to watch, Wang Ping'an had no interest in listening to others' flattery—no, wait, what they said were all true, but he is a modest person and doesn't want these truths to make him complacent.

Wang Ping'an severed the connection, pretended to be asleep, and turned his attention to Peregrine Falcon Little Gray—more precisely, to the paper person on its back—while still keeping a bit of attention on home.

Just in case!

Jiu tou shan ji shi Bei damen.

"Niuda, do you think my half-brother good Dao friend might patronize our Jiu tou shan ji shi, and happen to enter from here?"

Hu Jiushisan said.

Niuda angrily said: "Hu Jiushisan, are you looking for a beating? I've asked you this forty or fifty times already, and you're still asking?"

"What's up, you don't want to do a profitable business?"

Hu Jiushisan snorted in dissatisfaction; before he could finish his words, Niuda glared at him with copper-bell-like eyes, frightening him into swallowing his words, and he changed his tune to: "Wu zi......"

Zhu wu excitedly interrupted: "Hu bro, Hu bro, that Dao friend has come!"

"Are you trying to fool me like an idiot? That Dao friend just came yesterday; even if he wanted to, he couldn't possibly come this soon—at least ten days or half a month would be needed!"

Although he said that, Hu Jiushisan still couldn't help but look up.

Although it certainly knew that Wang Ping'an might or might not patronize their Jiu tou shan ji shi again, at the very least it was impossible for him to come this early; yet deep down, it couldn't help but feel anticipation.

Who made Wang Ping'an, in his eyes, already equivalent to a god of wealth!

How could one not anticipate the god of wealth!

Yesterday.

Hu Jiushisan personally witnessed Wang Ping'an slay two murderous and plundering Evil Cultivators, and he personally saw how solid the golden-light talisman from Wang Ping'an's hand was.

It actually managed to resist successive magical attacks!

Afterward.

After Wang Ping'an left, it eagerly ran into the Jiu tou shan ji shi, went to the shop opened by its ancestral elder, and in front of its clan brothers personally verified the power of the golden-light talisman, startling its clan brother.

It wasn't that it didn't want to verify the lightning-strike talisman; after witnessing the power of the golden-light talisman, its clan brother refused to test the lightning-strike talisman no matter what, instead ordering it to personally test the lightning-strike talisman.

Its brain wasn't addled; even an ordinary lightning-strike talisman was enough to make it tremble with fear, and the lightning-strike talisman from Wang Ping'an's hand—it wouldn't dare test it even if it had the courage of a bear and a leopard.

Although.

Although it couldn't test the lightning-strike talisman, thanks to the excellent performance of the golden-light talisman, it still managed to sell Wang Ping'an's talismans at a high price.

Three Low-grade Spirit Stones for two talismans!

This novel, you have arrived at

If.

It took Wang Ping'an's talismans outside to sell, or set up its own stall; not to mention three Low-grade Spirit Stones for two talismans, even two Low-grade Spirit Stones for one talisman, or three Low-grade Spirit Stones for one talisman……

It believes all of these can be sold!

But if that happened and the ancestral elder found out, it would certainly not end well for it.

It relies on its clan identity to qualify as the guard of Bei damen, and it is also a squad leader among the three demons, although it only has two subordinates.

But after all, it's still an official!

Apart from having a bit of brains, in every other respect it is completely crushed by Zhu wu and Niuda.

Now.

Now that it has something good, it doesn't even think about looking after the ancestral elder's shop—let alone the ancestral elder, even the clan elders would not easily let it off.

I could only endure the pain and let go, selling Wang Ping'an's talisman at a discount to the clan's shop.

Although the talisman was sold to the clan's shop at a discount, it still earned half, which was money it had never made before.

Having had a first time, naturally one would want a second, even a third……

Therefore.

I am greatly looking forward to Wang Ping'an's reappearance!

"I, I, I... I'm not dreaming, am I? That fellow Daoist just came yesterday, how could he come again today?"

Hu Jiushisan instinctively looked up and instantly saw a black dot in the sky; its vision was excellent, and upon closer look, it discovered it was a peregrine falcon, and what concerned it most was that there was a paper person on the falcon's back, trembling as it spoke in astonishment:

"Who among you will hit me once so I can see if I'm dreaming?"

"Bang!"

Before Hu Jiushisan could finish speaking, suddenly its abdomen felt like being struck by a charging beast, the whole monster flew backward and crashed heavily to the ground, a pain as if every bone in its body were broken.

This instantly sobered it up!

Hu Jiushisan glared at Niuda; although he hadn't seen it, aside from this bastard, Zhu Wu would neither dare nor be willing to kick it, and he couldn't help cursing: "I fuck your mother, you dare kick me?"

Niuda feigned confusion: "Hu Jiushisan, didn't you tell me to kick you? How about it, can you now confirm whether you're dreaming?"

"I..."

Just as Hu Jiushisan was about to say something more, Zhu Wu impatiently interrupted: "Brother Hu, now is not the time to argue; that fellow Daoist should come down quickly, let's go greet him—we must not make him feel neglected."
