Chapter 90 - Immortal Fate Of Longevity: Starting From Taking Care of Fellow Daoist Wife

Chapter 90: Foreign Family (Third Update) "The seaside... it would be nice to go and learn about the situation there." Xia Changge only knows that this nearby area belongs to Zhao Guo. As for the rest... it's not accurate to say that he knows nothing, but half-knowledge would be an overstatement. Perhaps these newcomers from outside might know something. Unfortunately, those outsiders are also families in the Foundation Establishment stage. Going there by himself would be difficult to maintain. Five days later, before Xiao Wan and Xiao Lin went to attend the auction, they called Xia Changge. Naturally, the location of the auction is in the Yun'an Immortal City, very close by and won't take much time to reach. It is certain that not only Foundation Establishment cultivators will participate in the auction, there will also be many Qi Refinement cultivators to attract attention. After all, lucky Qi Refinement cultivators might have treasures that can entice Foundation Establishment cultivators. The identity of the owner of the auctioned goods can be concealed by entrusting the auction house for Qi Refinement cultivators. Foundation Establishment cultivators have separate VIP rooms, while Qi Refinement cultivators have to find their own places outside in rows. If Xia Changge hadn't managed to tag along with Xiao's family's VIP room, he would have had to stay outside with the group of Qi Refinement cultivators. Inside Xiao's family VIP room, Xia Changge quietly stays in a corner without saying a word. Only when the person in charge of the auction arrives does Xia Changge appear spirited. To think they found such a young and beautiful Foundation Establishment female cultivator to be the host! Women... always the seasoning for men! "Hmph!" Feeling Xia Changge's change, Xiao Wan snorted unceremoniously. She thought to herself that men, when it comes to certain moments, have quite consistent reactions! In the VIP room, it is clear to see the cultivators sitting below in meditation, each with a huge reaction, whispering secrets among themselves. After all, these Foundation Establishment female cultivators are outsiders whom these people have never seen before. Moreover, perhaps because they are from the coastal region, their style of dress is quite different. Some are revealing enough that few Qi Refinement cultivators can help but take a few more glances. Xiao Wan's snort makes Xia Changge quickly compose himself. With seniors present, Xia Changge needs to pay attention to his image. For some reason, initially Xia Changge was indeed a bit covetous of Xiao Wan's figure. But as their relationship became more familiar... Now they are familiar to the point where Xia Changge is too embarrassed to take off her pants. Xia Changge is also troubled by this. Perhaps they are more suited to be friends of the opposite sex? "If it weren't for you, I would have become a Foundation Establishment cultivator five years ago!" Once again, seeing someone of similar age but with a higher cultivation level after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage deeply frustrated Xiao Wan, causing her to look at her mother with a hint of accusation. Xiao Yun explained, "Ah, your mother did it for your own good. However, the situation has changed now. If you want to break through, there is no problem. Just go down and prepare yourself properly!" Xiao Wan has been waiting for this statement for five whole years. She exclaimed in surprise, "No need to have a child anymore?" Xiao Wan's words reminded Xiao Yun, who quickly changed her tone. "That's right, if it's this time, if I don't sternly demand it from you, I'm afraid there would be even less hope for you to reach the Foundation Establishment stage. Ah, my daughter, this is also for the sake of the family. Don't you want to see the Xiao family continue for the next generation? So... the rules remain the same! Your mother has no other choice!" Xiao Wan almost gave herself a few big slaps. Why is her mouth so foolish? "Second sister, third sister are also fine. Why do you just focus on me, Mother?" Xiao Wan continued to plead pitifully. "It's not just you I'm requesting, my requirements are the same for all of you. It's just that your demand is higher, and if you have the ability to obtain Foundation Establishment Pills yourself, you can take your mother's words as wind passing your ears." Xiao Yun also found it amusing. Xiao Wan was furious. If she could get Foundation Establishment Pills herself, she wouldn't be so helpless now. Seeing her daughter's helpless expression, Xiao Yun continued to comfort her, "Wan'er, your mother also went through the same situation. At first, I also refused, otherwise, I wouldn't have had you at the age of one hundred. With you and your sisters, think it over carefully. It only takes about a year, and you don't even need to take care of the child. Would you rather abandon that one year for the future generations, or abandon all the future years for that one year? It's up to you." Xiao Yun once again shared her own experience as someone who has gone through it. She has told her daughters about this many times. This time, Xiao Wan surprisingly didn't feel impatient. It seems she has made up her mind to really give it a try. ................ The auction soon began. The items presented for auction were indeed very precious. More than ten top-grade spirit weapons were brought out, all of excellent quality and remarkable functionality, valued at more than two thousand spirit stones each. These top-grade spirit weapons all had unique abilities that greatly attracted Xia Changge. Xia Changge said that if he had enough spirit stones, he might not be able to resist these temptations. But because he doesn't have any spirit stones, he realized from various perspectives that he might not actually need any of these weapons. Aside from spirit weapons, there were also Foundation Establishment Pills available. It immediately caused an uproar in the entire venue, with the price soaring to ninety-four thousand spirit stones per pill. This surprised Xia Changge. There is no other way; only major sects can refine Foundation Establishment Pills, and the quantity is extremely scarce, mostly for internal use. Among the Foundation Establishment cultivators present, ninety to ninety-eight percent of them forced their way up. After all, there are quite a few Qi Refinement level nine cultivators in Foundation Establishment families, about a dozen or so. The number is there; even if the success rate is very low, there will always be one or two who make it. Not just these Foundation Establishment families, the majority of disciples without backgrounds in major sects also can only break through to the Foundation Establishment stage through self-breakthrough. The success rate is pitifully low. Even Xiao Yun, a Foundation Establishment middle stage cultivator, could only obtain one Foundation Establishment Pill for her daughter. This Foundation Establishment Pill was also up for auction by Xiao Yun herself, but in the end, it fell into the hands of a family surnamed Zhu. After all, the price offered was indeed exorbitant. As the auction drew to a close, the female Foundation Establishment cultivator on the stage brought out six transparent containers, each containing a five to six-foot-long fish monster at the sixth or seventh stage of Qi Refinement. This puzzled Xia Changge. To auction off Qi Refinement level monsters and to do so towards the end of the auction... is there some hidden meaning? Not only Xia Changge, but others also feel that it is not very appropriate. The host, Yu Keqing, quickly explained. Thanks to the generous donations of the Qi Refinement cultivator Da Fuben for 100 spirit stones and the friendly troublemaker Gangjing for 100 spirit stones. Thanks to the Foundation Establishment expert, Shiguang Congcong, for 500 spirit stones, and Aio's Lus for 500 spirit stones. Thanks to the many experts for their monthly tickets, recommendations, and support! This is the third update for today. (The End of this Chapter)
