Chapter 117: Chapter 117

If it weren’t for the letter from Huo Gongzi, he would never have bothered to come to this Qian Ding Sect!

The messenger saw Chen Muxue drinking sour plum soup and angrily clenched his fists. No wonder there are so many rumors about the Qian Ding Sect; just look at this woman’s attitude!

"Hmm? Is there another letter?" Chen Muxue asked, looking puzzled as the messenger lingered without leaving.

"No!" The messenger blushed and abruptly turned to leave.

Demon Cultivator, definitely a Demon Cultivator, otherwise how could I have been swayed by a bowl of soup?

Seeing the messenger’s reaction, Chen Muxue hummed a tune in a good mood and opened the letter.

There was no unnecessary stationery; as soon as the envelope was opened, a property deed appeared right in front of her, with a large government red seal that dazzled Chen Muxue’s eyes. She looked at the address, wasn’t it the small town inn?

The previous shopkeeper was so arrogant, and now suddenly this inn’s property deed belongs to me?

Chen Muxue stared at the deed with her name on it, lost in thought.

She looked at the envelope again, which simply had the character "Huo" written on it.

Was this sent by that Huo Gongzi? Why? Could it be that the Huo family is enthusiastic about charity, softened by the plight of the Qian Ding Sect?

Chen Muxue was utterly perplexed.

Changgui saw the Sect Leader in a daze and came over to ask, "What’s wrong, Sect Leader?"

He tried hard to see what was written on the paper, but he could only vaguely recognize a few characters, not understanding them fully. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

"Uh, do you remember Huo Gongzi, who organized the Spirit Medicine Exhibition?"

Unexpectedly, Changgui had a deep impression of Huo Gongzi: "Huo Gongzi is very nice; he gave me a lot of pastries. Later, he asked how the Qian Ding Sect was doing. I said we’re doing pretty well—the Sect Leader is farming, and the harvest each year is enough to eat, better than farm families. I don’t know why he stopped talking after that."

"... When was this?" Chen Muxue asked, puzzled.

Changgui lowered his head slightly, feeling a bit guilty. When the Sect Leader was setting up a stall, Huo Gongzi waved him over. Since it was in the Spirit Medicine Exhibition, and he knew Huo Gongzi, he secretly went over for a while. The Sect Leader was busy selling pizza and didn’t notice.

Did the Sect Leader get angry for not speaking? He knew it, he wasn’t behaving like Xiaohua, he ran off a bit, the Sect Leader would definitely be angry.

Changgui looked like a puppy that had done something wrong, his tail drooping, timidly glancing at Chen Muxue.

Chen Muxue remained silent, not because she was angry with Changgui, but because she was thinking—could it be that Huo Gongzi really considered the Qian Ding Sect as a target for poverty alleviation? Hearing that such a dignified Immortal Cultivation Sect had to farm their own grain to eat was just dismal, so he bought the inn for them?

The price of this small-town inn is nothing to the Huo family.

Huo Gongzi is such a generous person!

Indeed, the cost of a small-town inn was nothing to Huo Lian. He could earn much more from a single business deal. Besides, the inn originally belonged to the Huo family.

This was an apology to Chen Muxue for the actions of the inn’s shopkeeper.

The Spirit Medicine Exhibition doesn’t last only one day; once Chen Muxue and the others had sold their items, they naturally left.

Meanwhile, Huo Lian caught a minor sect at the Spirit Medicine Exhibition that was trying to deceive people. The costs of cultivation are actually quite high, and elixirs are often needed as an aid, so some people from small sects tend to act unscrupulously.

"This young brother, don’t be misled by the potency of this elixir at its face value. Considering the purity, it can only be rated as low-grade at best. It won’t just offer minimal benefits, but the impurities could even hinder cultivation, making it worth far less than the jade pendant in your hand."

Huo Lian glanced at Chu Wuyi. Though his clothes were worn out, the jade pendant in his hand was worth a fortune.
