Chapter 1113: Chapter 1113: Invitation from the Qian Family
The Qian Family fled in disgrace, while the Zhao Family achieved a complete victory.
Zhao Youyi was naturally delighted and repeatedly invited Shi Hao, insisting that he attend the dinner she was hosting.
Shi Hao couldn’t refuse, so he agreed.
After all, he had acquired a piece of Blood Shadow Heavenly Jade and a Silver Spirit-level Immortal Elixir, as if given to him for free. Although he also helped Zhao Youyi, this favor was separate, and he needed to reciprocate.
Zhao Youyi didn’t make the dinner particularly grand; in fact, apart from herself, there were only three guests: Liu Huafeng, Shi Hao, and Weng Nanqing. It’s more like a family dinner than a banquet.
At the table, Zhao Youyi once again expressed her desire to recruit Shi Hao, but he tactfully declined.
He had no interest in being a Primordial Stone Master fixed in one place. By nature, he loved freedom, and his aspirations were as vast as the stars and sea.
Although Zhao Youyi felt it was a pity, she didn’t press further, showing her tact.
The dinner ended, and Shi Hao returned to the inn with Weng Nanqing, spending a quiet night.
However, by the next day, news of Shi Hao’s miraculous performance at the Raw Stone Shop had spread throughout Xuanbai City and continued to spread far beyond with the movent of people.
Everyone was curious about which Primordial Stone Master had taught Shi Hao to have such astonishing skills.
Shi Hao gave the Blood Shadow Heavenly Jade to Weng Nanqing.
This item is beneficial for Golden Immortals in their pursuit of enlightennt but doesn’t aid Shi Hao much.
His insight is too high, so high that only the top-level treasures can provide any help.
It’s the happiness of a blessing and a burden.
Weng Nanqing originally intended for Shi Hao to sell the Blood Shadow Heavenly Jade. It’s a treasure that even Golden Immortals would covet, and auctioning it would surely bring Shi Hao astounding wealth.
However, Shi Hao insisted on giving the Blood Shadow Heavenly Jade to her.
Indeed, he needed Immortal Stones to purchase Immortal Elixirs and such, but anything useful for himself or his people would naturally be kept for personal use.
Why be greedy for that money?
Weng Nanqing couldn’t outargue him, so she accepted it, determined to wait until her cultivation was higher before selling the treasure.
“Girl, the rules contained in this Blood Shadow Heavenly Jade are limited, diminishing with use, so by the ti you reach Golden Immortal, it may have already been depleted,” said the Purple Gold Rat.
With this, Weng Nanqing hesitated again, contemplating if using the Blood Shadow Heavenly Jade to reach high-level Copper Armored Immortal or even Silver Spirit Immortal would be more valuable than exchanging it for other resources.
She still wanted to return the Blood Shadow Heavenly Jade to Shi Hao, but of course, Shi Hao refused again.
“No worries, I’m a Primordial Stone Master and can unearth more,” Shi Hao said with a smile.
Her husband said so, so Weng Nanqing could only accept it in peace.
With renewed determination, she was eager to quickly improve her cultivation, no longer holding Shi Hao back but instead being able to help him.
Shi Hao cut open the additional Raw Stones he had bought, harvesting a few Immortal Elixirs. Although their age wasn’t high, they were rare finds.
——Try buying, and you’ll find that Immortal Elixirs only appear at auctions and fetch high prices; often, even with money, they are inaccessible.
He refined these Immortal Elixirs one by one. It was so simple; the Stone Mill ground them instantly, absorbing without a trace of side effects.
Pity, if only he could sneak into a Jade Immortal’s dicine Garden and cause havoc within a day.
“Whenever I visit the Thousand chanisms Pavilion, the first thing is to explore the dicine Garden!”
Shi Hao was about to leave when suddenly soone visited.
——And gave him a challenge.
That morning, Shi Hao ca downstairs for breakfast as usual, only to find the typically bustling hall cold and empty, with only one person sitting.
This person was obviously intentional, presenting Shi Hao with his back, leisurely sipping tea with an air of arrogance that strongly irritated Shi Hao.
Of all arrogant displays, if aid at my head, you’d better think twice!
Shi Hao walked over, while Weng Nanqing was still upstairs grooming and dressing.
“Please sit,” said the seated individual.
Shi Hao finally saw his face—he was a middle-aged man in his thirties, with obvious haughtiness, as if everyone was beneath him.
“What would you like to eat?” continued the man, “White fish from Tailin Lake? Purple Heart Mountain venison? Or black corn porridge from East Valley?”
He carried the attitude that he could provide the world’s delicacies as long as Shi Hao asked.
Shi Hao sat down: “Do you have beast at from the Immortal King level?”
The man’s expression instantly stiffened—what sort of appetite is this to desire Immortal King-grade beast at?
I would love that too, but that doesn’t an him—who can eat Immortal King at, even the Immortal King himself?
“None?” Shi Hao shook his head, “Then Immortal King-grade Great dicine would suffice.”
The man appeared even more troubled, feeling as if he might leap up then and there to choke Shi Hao to death.
Enough already!
“Sigh!” Shi Hao shrugged his shoulders, “You don’t have this nor that, yet daring to speak up?”
The man, unable to contain himself, slamd the table furiously, ready to erupt but restrained himself, saying, “My surna is Qian!”
He ceased speaking, expecting Shi Hao to recognize who he was and reconsider his attitude.
Shi Hao sat down loudly, “Waiter, bring a bowl of porridge to warm up my stomach.”
That person was disgraced but dared not lash out, having to return to modesty and reintroduce himself: “My na is Qian Du, a direct descendant of the Taibai Sect’s Ninth Elder and an heir of the Qian Family in Xuanbai City.”
“Waiter, why is there only porridge and no side dishes?” Shi Hao looked up at the staff.
Damn, he was ignored!
Qian Du wished to kill; he was a Qian Family mber, and in Xuanbai City, who dared offend him?
Yet now, soone did, and unfortunately, he had orders from the family elders to bring Shi Hao back, forcing him to refrain from acting out.
——Initially, he intended that with the na of the Qian Family, he could easily intimidate Shi Hao, relying on that reputation without needing to speak humbly, commanding Shi Hao with unquestionable authority.
Thus, he began with an impressive display by clearing the hall, unexpectedly finding Shi Hao so composed, putting him in a tight spot.
Endure, endure!
Qian Du inhaled deeply, forcing a smile, “I wonder what master I should call you?”
“With no Immortal King at to eat, what’s the point in getting acquainted!” Shi Hao muttered, anwhile sipping porridge with so side dishes.
Damn it, can’t you get past this threshold?
Qian Du inhaled deeply again, “This ti, I co on behalf of the family, hoping to—”
“Waiter, another bowl of porridge!” Shi Hao loudly interrupted Qian Du.
Bang!
Qian Du slamd the table, utterly unable to bear it anymore.
