Chapter 308
Qin Yan knew he carried the Marquis Manor's fortune; he had known since he was a child.
However, never had his fortune performed so surprisingly. Qin Yan admired his fortune so much; he thought fortune would only protect him at critical moments.
Having good luck follow you is actually quite surprising.
"Eldest cousin," Qin Lang sat next to Qin Yan, soaking up some fortune, "everyone used to say our Marquis Manor was declining and its fortune was unclear. Isn't it quite clear now? It knows how to protect us."
Qin Yan was touched by these words, his gaze deep. "Yes."
Qin Bi was also a young girl. Although she had two children, she was happy at this moment. She stood up, moved to Qin Yan's side, and sat down. "Eldest cousin, don't listen to anyone; don't leave. You collect things with us."
Qin Yan nodded gently. "Okay."
The younger brothers and sisters all smiled, and Qin Yan was in a good mood. This was what a family should be like.
Qin He urged again and again, and the summoning artifact used for contact flashed and flashed. Qin Yan ignored her, but Qin He persisted. Rong Yan and Jiang Xu sighed; so this was the kind of person Qin He was.
Urging and urging—who would pay attention to her!
Everyone rested for a while. Seeing the sky gradually darken, many spirit bird ducks ran into the water, quacking and catching fish. After eating a fish, they would choke half to death, and then the spirit birds without crystals would grow small crystals.
The small crystals flashed with light, and everyone's gaze stopped.
"Oh my mother!" Qin Xun stood up. He couldn't sit anymore; he couldn't sit still.
Qin Yan and the others also stood up in surprise. Rong Yan was anxious. "It's almost dark."
The beasts in the small space of the beast realm are very fierce, especially at night. It's dangerous in the wild. Should they catch them? It's about to get dark. If they don't catch them, they'll be greedy looking at the spirit bird ducks. They were in a dilemma.
Qin Bi made a prompt decision and pointed to the summoned small river. "I'll withdraw the summoning. Let's catch the ones that have grown small crystals first. The ones that grew small crystals after eating summoned fish look good."
As for spiritual energy and such, someone with Qin Bi's cultivation level couldn't tell.
Qin Yan nodded. "The small crystals condensed after spirit birds swallow summoned fish are best for children."
Qin Tang said to Qin Bi, "Then let's catch them. Withdraw the river."
Everyone ignored the ducks in the distance that they couldn't catch. What was the use of seeing them? There was no time to catch them. Time was pressing. It was better to catch a few spirit birds that had condensed small crystals before dark.
Qin Bi held the summoning artifact she had condensed herself. She knew how to play with it, and in a moment, she withdrew the small river.
The spirit bird ducks were swimming leisurely in the small river. As a result, the river disappeared, and the ducks were confused. Rong Yan, Jiang Xu, and Qin Lang rushed up first. Qin Bi took a basket with a lid from her storage bag.
Qin Yan, Qin Tang, and Qin Xun were young masters of the Marquis Manor, exuding elegance. Qin Lang and Rong Yan were lively, shouting and pouncing towards the spirit bird ducks with small crystals. Jiang Xu followed closely behind.
More than twenty spirit bird ducks quacked and scattered in panic.
Qin Bi, Qin Xun, and Jiang Xu surrounded and intercepted them. After working for half an hour, they caught eleven spirit bird ducks. Most of them had small crystals, and only three didn't.
Qin Bi acted like a spoiled child to her brothers. "I want these ones with small crystals."
Her brothers nodded. Qin Lang and Rong Yan waved their hands. "They're yours."
Qin Bi immediately opened a small teleportation array and teleported the spirit bird ducks with small crystals back to the Rong Wang Fu.
"Bang!" With a sound, the bamboo basket landed in the Rong Wang Fu courtyard.
The guards opened the basket lid. Rong Juan held his young son and glanced at it. The little milk bun looked at it in surprise. The little Imperial Prince squeezed over proactively. "Don't we need to catch them anymore?"
Rong Yang also leaned over. Rong Wang was surprised. "Small crystals condensed after swallowing summoned beasts? These are good things. They are best for children to practice."
Greed flashed in the eyes of the eldest concubine-born son. The Rong Heir said to Rong Yang, "I'll stew one for you and your brother to eat tonight."
A smile appeared on Rong Yang's milky face. The little Imperial Prince was dumbfounded. What about him? He wasn't big either! He looked up at the Rong Heir, but the Rong Heir's gaze only fell on his own children.
The guards carried the bamboo basket and followed the Rong Heir and his son back to the Heir's courtyard.
The little Imperial Prince followed, and no one told him to leave.
Rong Wang couldn't see the Rong Heir's figure anymore, so he glanced at the eldest concubine-born son. "You have no ambition. Can you covet what the Heir gives to the little Heir? Don't think about things you shouldn't."
The eldest concubine-born son felt his heart go cold. The greed he had just felt upon seeing the small crystals was all gone.
Rong Wang's reprimand was better than the Rong Heir taking action. The eldest concubine-born son regretted being greedy. This couldn't be blamed on him; the small crystals condensed after swallowing summoned beasts were good things for children practicing cultivation.
The small space of the beast realm gradually darkened. Qin Yan and Qin Tang didn't dare to stay in the sand and led the team to find a place to rest.
At the camping site, several teams of cultivators practicing in the sand were already preparing to cook. This time, they didn't need Cui Shi's people to send beast meat; they had kept three spirit bird ducks.
Rong Yan boiled water, Jiang Xu plucked the duck feathers, and Qin Xun also rolled up his sleeves to join in.
The cultivation team saw the spirit bird ducks and showed surprise. The second young master Cui walked over and smiled. "Your luck is pretty good today. You actually caught spirit bird ducks."
"Yes." Qin Yan smiled. "Pretty good luck."
This was Qin Yan's true thought. If this luck could always be this good, it would be amazing.
Qin Yan and the second young master Cui exchanged pleasantries, and Qin Tang handed him a spirit bird duck. "I'll share one with you."
The second young master Cui was stunned, then smiled and took it. "I won't be a stranger."
Qin Tang felt a bit of heartache, but he had to send it. Previously, they had no prey, and it was the second young master Cui who sent some. Qin Yan didn't stop him either. The fourth branch and Qin He were not on good terms, but the Cui clan was Qin Jue's maternal grandfather's family, and Qin He couldn't be considered a proper niece of the Cui clan.
Being born of a concubine, she was a bit inferior and couldn't hinder the interaction between relatives.
The second young master Cui didn't take a spirit bird duck for nothing either; he went back and brought two low-grade spirit fruits. "Try these. We collected them today."
Qin Tang took them, the few exchanged a few pleasantries, and the second young master Cui went back.
Qin Tang gave the two low-grade spirit fruits to Qin Bi. "Eat them, Qin Bi."
Qin Bi smiled and took one. "I'll eat one."
Qin Tang put the other low-grade spirit fruit into Qin Bi's hand and walked away to help cook. Qin Yan took a pot from his storage bag, and after discussing, they decided to stew the duck.
Qin Bi washed the spirit fruit and took a bite. "Mom."
"What's wrong?" Qin Yan asked her.
"It's not as delicious as ordinary fruit." Qin Bi didn't want to eat it anymore. "It's very sour."
"This is a low-grade spirit fruit." Qin Yan said. "How sour can it be? Others can't even eat it if they want to."
Qin Bi went to find Qin Lang, took the spirit fruit, and asked, "I took a bite. Do you want to eat it?"
"I'll eat it." Qin Lang took it and took a bite. "It's not sour."
Qin Bi was speechless. "Rong Yang is just like you."
It was clearly very sour, yet he insisted it wasn't.
Qin Lang was quite happy, the young man was cheerful.
