The Crazy Son-In-Law

Before long, there was a string of miserable screams from within Pellet Pavilion.

With a few bumps on his head, Yang Genius finally realized that the person in front of him was not his immensely talented Luo brother, but his true master!

“Where is your senior sister?” After using some means, Xiao Shun calmly asked his tearful disciple.

“Mr. Ning and the others left, and there’s nothing to do at Pellet Pavilion. Plus, those kids are still inexperienced in cultivation and it’s too early for them to learn alchemy. Senior sister returned to her cultivation out of boredom,” Yang Genius replied respectfully.

Pellet Pavilion was the most idle place in the entire martial arts school.

If it weren’t for Xiao Shun’s previous statement that Pellet Pavilion always needed someone to oversee it, he would have left long ago. There was no point in staying here.

“Where is Mr. Zhou?” Xiao Shun surveyed the empty Pellet Pavilion.

Yang Genius helplessly answered, “Mr. Zhou stayed at Pellet Pavilion for two days, found there was nothing to do, and went home to study alchemy.”

Now, besides a few alchemy furnaces, there was nothing left inside Pellet Pavilion.

After all, Mr. Ning Zhiyuan, the senior, took his disciples to Eastbrook on the second day of Pellet Pavilion’s opening, and they hadn’t even had time to draw up a development plan.

Xiao Shun also wanted to wait until the herbs from Cliffside Hanging Flask Inn were collected before getting things up and running here.

Unforeseen circumstances, however, had other plans.

Just as Xiao Shun was feeling emotional, Yang Genius urgently caught his eye.

“Master, about the Chromatic Earth…”

Xiao Shun shot him a look and then took a bottle out of his backpack, saying, “It’s all in here. I brought it back specifically for you.”

With that, he handed the black clay jar to his disciple.

Yang Genius excitedly opened the seal on the jar.

Immediately, a burst of brilliant light shot out from the jar, illuminating Pellet Pavilion in dazzling colors, mesmerizing.

“This is great, amazing!” With a look of excitement, Yang Genius held the jar like a treasure in his hands.

Xiao Shun offered a gentle reminder, “Although I don’t need to know what you want this for, it’s best to return it if you can, as this kind of soil is very precious.”

“I’ll do my best,” Yang Genius replied with a hint of embarrassment on his face.

“Alright, I’ll leave things here to you. I need to go find Mr. Zhou,” Xiao Shun patted his shoulder and left without another word.

“Master!” Yang Genius immediately called out as his master was about to leave.

“What’s wrong?” Xiao Shun paused, puzzled.

Yang Genius hesitated for a moment, looking awkward.

“Well… I may have to leave Harrow for a few days. I’ll have my senior sister on duty here, so I wanted to let Master know in advance.”

“Make sure to coordinate with Ling’er in advance,” Xiao Shun waved his hand and continued walking out.

Just as he stepped out of Pellet Pavilion’s gates, he suddenly spoke, seemingly to himself, “If you run into any trouble, remember to notify me.”

With that, he disappeared.

Watching the jade jar in his arms, Yang Genius was deeply moved.

He also wanted to tell Xiao Shun what he was about to do, but it was a serious matter, and he didn’t want to cause trouble for his master. So, he chose to keep it to himself.

In the afternoon, Xiao Shun left the martial arts school and headed to the Zhou residence. The place was a villa community located not far from the school, at the foot of Qintian Mountain. After registering at the gate, Xiao Shun entered the community. After a series of twists and turns, he finally arrived at the Zhou residence.

The distinguished guest had visited, and Zhou Tianheng personally received him. After serving a cup of fragrant tea, Zhou Tianheng eagerly asked, “Mr. Xiao, has Cliffside been secured?”

Xiao Shun nodded, “With Mr. Ning and Mr. Zhou, both alchemy grandmasters, and the herbs provided by Hanging Flask Inn, the Old School Society is far behind us in this regard.”

“Excellent, excellent!” Zhou Tianheng excitedly rubbed his hands. He had been devoted to alchemy all his life, and now, with a place full of precious herbs in Hanging Flask Inn, he would be able to produce many high-quality elixirs. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn’t help but stand up. He couldn’t sit still.

Anxiously, he looked at Xiao Shun, “I’m going to Pellet Pavilion now to discuss how to make use of these treasures with Mr. Ning!”

He was still unaware of Mr. Ning Zhiyuan’s whereabouts, thinking that since Xiao Shun came back from Cliffside, he must have brought Mr. Ning and his disciple with him.

Seeing this, Xiao Shun smiled, “Mr. Zhou, please take your time.”

Zhou Tianheng was agitated, “How can I sit still? Spring is just around the corner, and if we don’t speed up, how can we successfully hold the first Elixir Conference of our New School Society?”

“Mr. Ning is still in Eastbrook, and he didn’t come back with me,” Xiao Shun explained.

“What?” Zhou Tianheng was stunned, looking at Xiao Shun with doubt and disbelief.

“This is the situation…” Xiao Shun then explained the events that occurred in Eastbrook during these days.

After hearing this, Zhou Tianheng and Qin Zhenhuan had the same shocked and incredulous expressions on their faces.

At this point, Xiao Shun explained his purpose for coming.

“Mr. Zhou, as you’re aware of what’s happened, I came here to ask you to go to Eastbrook with me and help Mr. Ning and his disciple prepare for the Elixir Conference,” Xiao Shun concluded.

Zhou Tianheng couldn’t hide his excitement. “Haha, I will… oh no, I will leave for Eastbrook right away!”

With that, he began moving in a hurry, instructing servants to book plane tickets and contacting several disciples to join him immediately.

Seeing this, Xiao Shun couldn’t help but smile wryly.

At the same time, in Harrow’s antique street, Wang Fugui was playing with a jade piece in his store, his eyes wandering. After selling the “Jade Luminous Stone” to Sha Hai, he had already suffered a loss. But after Sha Hai left, Wang Fugui took the opportunity to demand justice from the Qing Zun Chamber of Commerce. This enabled him to pick out a few valuable items from their underground treasure trove to offset the debt. He actually selected a priceless item because he was the first to choose it. Looking at the most prominent Buddha statue in the store, Mr. Wang was inexplicably excited.

At this moment, two tall foreigners entered the Baoyu Pavilion.

Wang Fugui immediately squinted his eyes and thought to himself that a big spender had arrived.

With that in mind, he immediately put on a big smile and approached them, asking in broken English what they wanted to buy.

One of the foreigners, with blonde hair, raised his hand and interrupted Wang Fugui’s incessant chatter. Then, he spoke fluently in Chinese, “I heard that you obtained a gold Buddha in Sha Hai?”

After hearing this, Wang Fugui was puzzled, wondering how this person knew about it. So, he patiently asked, “May I ask how you…”

The burly bald foreigner next to the blonde man looked at Wang Fugui with a menacing expression.

“Where is it?” He sounded aggressive.

Wang Fugui was suddenly stunned, feeling a sense of danger in his heart.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
