Chapter 106 Humans are Greedy
Xiao Family Market, in a certain corner.
"Young Clan Leader, Young Clan Leader, why are we following them?" Behind Xiao Yan, a round-faced member of the Xiao family asked in a low voice, both curious and a little uneasy.
"What do you mean by stalking?! I was just out for a walk."
Xiao Yan retorted instantly, as if his tail had been stepped on.
But the way he kept glancing ahead completely betrayed his true intentions.
Noticing the strange looks from his underlings, Xiao Yan cleared his throat and said casually, "Ahem, we're just here for a stroll. We haven't used our monthly allowance yet."
As he spoke, he patted the bulging money pouch at his waist, which made a pleasant, crisp sound as the gold coins clattered together.
As the son of the clan chief, he received a monthly allowance of twenty gold coins, four times more than the average member of the Xiao family.
Of course, this doesn't include the extra expenses his father gave him privately for making friends and expanding his network.
Thinking about this.
Xiao Yan couldn't help but glance at the crowd ahead again.
"Huh? Where did they go?"
The two figures that were just faintly visible have now disappeared into the crowd.
The main street of the market, on the other side.
Xiao Yan was being enthusiastically pulled along by Xiao Xun'er as they wandered between various stalls and shops.
This time, Xiao Yan's behavior was very different from before. Whenever Xun'er looked at something for a few more seconds, lingered for a moment, or even just showed a little interest, she would react differently.
Xiao Yan felt an unprecedented comfort in his stomach and took out his money quickly and proactively to buy all the items.
The cave yielded approximately 365,000 gold coins, more than enough to cover current expenses.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Xun'er's eyebrows curved into a smile, her face beaming.
She picked up a delicate bracelet she had just bought, inlaid with a light blue water-attribute magic core, and handed it to Xiao Yan: "Brother Xiao Yan, please put it on for me."
"good!"
Xiao Yan naturally wouldn't refuse. He took the bracelet and carefully and gently put it on her slender wrist.
Xiao Xun'er's smile grew even sweeter, and she naturally took his hand and walked towards the next place that interested her.
When I passed by a Xiao family pharmacy.
Out of the corner of Xiao Yan's eye, he seemed to catch a glimpse of a small pink head flashing past the medicine cabinet.
"Brother Xiao Yan, what are you looking at?"
Suddenly, Xiao Xun'er's soft yet all-knowing voice rang in my ears.
"It's nothing."
Xiao Yan's expression remained unchanged as he naturally withdrew his gaze.
"Let's go then." Xiao Xun'er's tone returned to its usual gentleness. She took his hand and walked briskly toward the area selling novelty trinkets.
In a corner not far away.
"Wow, they're so rich!"
The Xiao family members following behind Xiao Yan, including Xiao Yan himself, couldn't help but show expressions of envy and even shock as they looked at the scene of "spending money like water" in front of them.
"A bracelet, five hundred gold coins?! Not to mention all the other odds and ends, it's probably worth over a thousand gold coins, right?"
""
"Where did he get so much money? I haven't heard of any mercenary groups that have made such huge profits recently in the Monster Mountain Range."
"Could it be that Miss Xun'er gave it to him, and he's deliberately showing it off in front of us?"
Some people made sour guesses.
"What do you mean by 'deliberately'? They didn't even notice us, okay?" someone whispered to us.
Xiao Yan, who was in the lead, twitched his lips but did not reply.
All his possessions combined amounted to less than five hundred gold coins. However, his gaze was fixed on Xiao Yan's back in front of him. "Where did he get so much money? He doesn't look like he's carrying that many gold coins—"
Half a day passed.
After browsing the Xiao family's market, we went to the auction house, and after the auction, we visited the markets of other families.
Even with Xiao Yan's current cultivation level of one-star Dou Shi, he felt slightly weak in the legs and breathless. On the other hand, Xiao Xun'er was still full of energy, with bright eyes and no signs of fatigue.
This situation made him wonder if the girl had really succeeded in calming down the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame and absorbing that skull with spiritual attributes.
However, he looked at her with a gaze that was both inquisitive and suspicious.
Xiao Xun'er understood it at a glance.
"Alright," she gently shook their clasped hands, considerately slowing her pace, "If Brother Xiao Yan is tired, then let's take a rest."
As soon as he finished speaking, and before he could stop walking, a subtle sound transmission seemed to flash through his mind.
She pouted slightly, then quickly returned to normal, and simply pulled Xiao Yan to sit down on the side of the street.
"The soul bone that Brother Xiao Yan gave me."
She suddenly brought up the topic, turning her head to look at him, "It's even more useful than Xun'er imagined."
Hearing her bring it up herself, Xiao Yan perked up: "Xun'er used it?"
Xiao Xun'er shook her head, but didn't say who it was given to specifically. She only said, "It's an ability to enhance perception, but it doesn't seem to be a combat skill. It is a combat skill, but Xun'er is also a little confused."
But Elder Ling said it was even, how could it be compared to the Earth Rank?
But I did ask that question.
Old Ling denied it again, saying it was a good fit, but later he said that more importantly, he found a breakthrough opportunity in it.
"Perception? Passivity?"
Xiao Yan's mind raced. No wonder the beggar always reacted so quickly, able to detect them from a great distance.
But that's not the point!
He glanced to the side out of the corner of his eye, barely noticing that most of the Xiao family members who had been following them were exhausted, but Xiao Yan was still holding on not far away.
With enhanced perception, will he become aware of Yao Lao's presence?
The passive ability can always be active!
Moreover, Ling Ying is a Dou Huang from an ancient clan, so the level of the cultivation technique she practices will definitely not be low. Her dark attribute, self-sensing ability, and concealment ability are definitely not bad.
With this enhancement, it's not impossible—
"Brother Xiao Yan, what are you thinking about?"
Xiao Xun'er's gentle voice pulled him back to reality. Her eyes gazed at him quietly, "You won't think about that pink-haired girl anymore—?"
Xiao Yan immediately interrupted, "How could that be!"
His heart tightened. He had only glanced at the pharmacy entrance when he was distracted, yet Xun'er remembered this moment?
He inexplicably sensed that Xun'er's expression was slightly off for a moment, but he firmly denied it.
The slight unease quickly dissipated, and she returned to her usual gentle demeanor, only whispering, "That's good."
"Does Xun'er still want it?" Xiao Yan suddenly asked, referring to the soul bone he had just mentioned.
Xiao Xun'er's eyes held a hint of melancholy as she gently shook her head: "I'm sorry, Brother Xiao Yan. Xun'er can't use it."
"Is that so?
Xiao Yan then revealed a look of disappointment, "What a pity."
He then added, as if casually, "That's only a part of the inheritance. If we had the complete inheritance, we could definitely get Xun'er something useful—no, something suitable!"
Finally, he let out a long sigh, "A suitable inheritance? Can we find one suitable for Xun'er?"
Xiao Xun'er softly repeated the key point of that sentence.
"Hmm." Xiao Yan nodded, then sighed, "This thing is made using a secret technique, combined with my own special physique. It can not only help you comprehend combat techniques, but it is also more effective than pills. It can also unconditionally enhance your cultivation. Each person can absorb at least six pieces. I thought this could help Xun'er."
Xiao Xun'er blinked.
I will memorize these words word for word.
In the shadows, Ling Ying frowned slightly, feeling that the framework of these words seemed familiar, as if this kid had said the same thing before.
But the sense of déjà vu was quickly drawn to the content of the conversation: special physique? Secret techniques? A treasure that can enhance cultivation even more effectively than elixirs without causing harm? Each person can absorb more than six pieces?
The value of such an external object, which can steadily improve one's cultivation level and seems to have no obvious side effects, is immeasurable.
And did he really sense an improvement?
If I can absorb six pieces, I'm afraid I can directly break through to the nine-star Dou Huang level and touch the threshold of Dou Zong.
And this is only at the "current" level!
What if we obtain "bones" to make higher quality ones, or wait until this kid gets the complete secret technique before making them?
Ling Ying's breathing quickened involuntarily.
Luoyan Empire, Golden Goose Sect?
Right!?
