Chapter 257: It is not easy for wood-attribute cultivators to grow spiritual crops

~9 min read 1,623 words

Spiritual melon vines! The melons they bear are all infused with spiritual energy.

Even the lowest-grade spiritual melon is enough to make cultivators covet it.

"Sister!" Qin Lang was so anxious he was stuttering, his eyes fixed on the two melon fields, almost popping out of their sockets: "Why didn't you tell us sooner that the Five Grains Abundance Cloud was so powerful?!"

Qin Bi was not polite at all: "If I told you, what would you do if you all fought me for the Five Grains Abundance Cloud? I wasn't going to say anything. I'm irrigating the farmland I cleared first; I want to claim the benefits first."

Just listen to that. Qin Yan, Qin Tang, and the others had nothing to say. Everything Qin Bi said was the absolute truth. She didn't treat them as outsiders at all; when speaking among family, she didn't hide anything, and she just snatched it.

Qin Lang reacted very quickly, shouting loudly: "Irrigate the farmland I cleared next."

Qin Yan and the others stopped talking. Who gets their farmland irrigated next depends on who can snatch it. They could yield on other things, but not the Five Grains Abundance Cloud. To eat spiritual melons, they had to snatch it.

Qin Lang saw the expressions of his cousins and their wives and shouted even louder: "The Five Grains Abundance Cloud is mine."

Everyone said nothing, pretending not to hear. They would snatch it even if it was yours.

By this time, the sky had already darkened. Thinking of the ten teleportation arrays she had gained, Qin Bi opened a teleportation array, intending to go back for a trip. Qin Tang sent her back, and Qin Bi went to pick another spiritual melon.

In the middle of summer, seeing the fresh spiritual melon, Qin Tang felt thirsty.

Before leaving, Qin Bi said fiercely to Qin Yan and the others: "Don't snatch my Five Grains Abundance Cloud."

Qin Yan: "......"

Qin Xun: "......"

Jiang Shi, Lin Shi: "......"

So fierce! Were they afraid? No, but with Qin Bi going back, no one was there to snatch the Five Grains Abundance Cloud. Qin Lang pouted, still having to lead the Five Grains Abundance Cloud to the two acres of land where he had just planted seeds.

Leaving the Wilderness, Qin Bi and Qin Tang returned to the Qin Yan Hou Fu.

He Shi and Qin Di were playing with Rong Yang in the courtyard. He Shi was fanning Little Tuanzi. As soon as the teleportation array appeared in the courtyard, He Shi and Qin Di looked over, and Rong Yang also tilted his head to peek.

"Mother!" Rong Yang's little face lit up: "You're back from the Wilderness?"

Little Tuanzi saw the melon: "Spiritual melon?"

Rong Yang moved his little legs and ran over with a patter.

Qin Bi smiled, first giving Rong Yang a spiritual melon, and placing the other on the table in the courtyard. On the table were plates of melons, fruits, and pastries, all for Rong Yang to eat. The Qin Yan Hou Fu had only just become a cultivation family and couldn't produce spiritual food for the child to eat.

But He Shi and Qin Di's love for Rong Yang was not fake, and both Qin Bi and Rong Yang felt it.

"Father, Mother, you eat this spiritual melon, and let the little nephews have a taste too." Qin Bi acted like a spoiled child, showing off to Qin Di and his wife: "Qin Lang's Five Grains Abundance Cloud has advanced, and these are the spiritual melons I grew."

With just a few words, Qin Di and He Shi didn't understand.

Qin Tang roughly explained the situation. Rong Yang was hugging the spiritual melon, cherishing it. Qin Di was surprised: "I didn't expect that not only can a Half-Immortal possess a Five Grains Abundance Cloud, but the advancement of the Five Grains Abundance Cloud is so powerful. Can ordinary melon vines be transformed into spiritual melon vines? The advancement actually has such a grand display."

Qin Di was pleasantly surprised, yet also found it unbelievable, and immediately called back Qin Tan, who was on duty.

Qin Tan opened the teleportation array and returned very quickly.

Stepping out of the teleportation array, Qin Tan was still quite calm and asked: "What's going on?"

Qin Tang explained it roughly again. A flash of light appeared in Qin Tan's eyes as he listened: "I'll go to the Wilderness to take a look. That kid Qin Lang has good luck; only he obtained a flying cloud."

The envy in his tone was undisguised.

Once Qin Bi heard this, if the Third Uncle went to the Wilderness, would that be the end of it? Wouldn't he snatch the Five Grains Abundance Cloud? She hurriedly said: "Wait for me, wait for me. I'm still going back to the Wilderness. Wait for me to send Rong Yang back to the Rong Wang Fu first."

Little Tuanzi jumped: "I'm going to the Wilderness too."

Rong Yang also had a spiritual melon field in the Wilderness, and spiritual melons were growing there. The child was excited; maybe they were all ripe.

"You are still small and cannot go out at night." Qin Bi refused, her tone gentle.

Rong Yang didn't say he was going.

Qin Tan was anxious to go to the Wilderness. After all, the Five Grains Abundance Cloud was Qin Lang's, and Qin Tan was very concerned about this advanced Five Grains Abundance Cloud of his family. But since Qin Bi wanted to go with him, he had to wait for Qin Bi for the time being.

Qin Bi was about to leave, and Qin Di reminded her: "Take the spiritual melon."

Qin Bi didn't take it: "I specially picked an extra one for Mother to eat."

He Shi naturally wanted to eat it, but spiritual melons were rare and expensive, and Qin Bi still had two children. He Shi said: "Take it for the children. Summer is hot, and if the children eat it, they won't suffer from the heat."

"I still have an acre of melon fields that have turned into spiritual melon vines. Even if the spiritual melons they bear have only a little spiritual energy, they are still spiritual melons." Qin Bi told He Shi to eat it without worry; she was wealthy: "I will naturally save some for the children to eat. Mother, you don't need to be reluctant. You and Father should also share in my good fortune."

He Shi was gratified, and Qin Di didn't say to let Qin Bi take it either. Qin Tan nodded slightly; this child was good, knowing how to be filial to her stepmother, and it was not in vain that He Shi had protected Qin Bi, this concubine-born daughter, so much.

Qin Tang was also happy that Qin Bi was thinking of He Shi everywhere, and went with Qin Bi to send Rong Yang back to the Rong Wang Fu.

The Rong Shizi had just been about to go to the Qin Yan Hou Fu to pick up Rong Yang. Seeing Qin Bi return, he turned back to his own courtyard. Rong Yang happily hugged the fresh spiritual melon with leaves and went to find his younger brother, Rong Chi.

"Mother picked it back for us." Rong Yang said: "I want to eat it with my brother."

The Rong Shizi loved his children the most. After asking Qin Bi and knowing it was grown by her, a look of surprise appeared on his face. Once Qin Bi and Qin Tang left, he touched the spiritual melon; it was ice-cold, and the Rong Shizi was surprised.

However, it was very good, saving the trouble of icing it.

Rong Juan picked up Rong Yang and went to the Rong Wang's courtyard to pick up his younger son. Today, the affairs of the Anyuan Hou Fu were already known throughout the Jingcheng. He didn't dare to hold his younger son when he went to the Qin Yan Hou Fu to pick up Rong Yang.

Nowadays, within the Jingcheng, people turned pale at the mention of bad luck.

Rong Juan was a god of slaughter and didn't fear these, but his children were too weak.

In the Rong Wang's courtyard, the tall Rong Wang, with the aura of a military general, was holding his little grandson and teasing him. Seeing Rong Juan bring Rong Yang over, he was surprised: "Back from the Qin Yan Hou Fu so quickly?"

Rong Juan didn't answer in a hurry, took Rong Yang's hand and sat down, only then saying: "His mother came back for a trip, sent him back, and went to the Wilderness again."

The Rong Wang was puzzled. Rong Juan pondered slightly and mentioned the matter of Qin Bi growing spiritual melons. The Rong Wang was even more puzzled. It was not easy for wood-attribute cultivators of the Xian Sect to grow spiritual crops.

How did the Shizifei grow them? Was it so easy?!

When the Rong Wang asked again, Rong Juan didn't say much more, stood up and said: "It's dark. You hold Rong Chi and send me back to my courtyard."

The Rong Wang nodded and sent Rong Juan and his son back.

Because there were children in the Shizi's courtyard, it was very bright. The guards cut the spiritual melon, and Rong Yang hugged a piece and gnawed on it himself. Rong Juan took a spoon, scooped out the melon pulp, and fed the little milk Tuanzi.

"Ah, ah." The little milk Tuanzi ate a mouthful of the cool watermelon and started talking again.

The Rong Wang: "...... This child, he really has a lot to say." ===== CHAPTER 258 =====
