Chapter 281 We are the best in the world
"Liu Meng, you know in your heart how you're going to treat me from now on, right?"
"I know, I know, Senior Sister."
The little fox followed Wu Qinghuan very politely.
Xu Nian found the two drama queens rather amusing.
These two are so boring.
Because the little fox had already soothed her ancestor while she was asleep.
They now know the rare and precious materials needed to refine essence blood.
So they followed their senior brother and sister to the Hall of Affairs.
This place is actually the headquarters of the Sword Sect Merchant Guild.
It contains a large number of spiritual treasures; the sect's treasury is located here.
The Deacon Hall is responsible for many matters.
This includes the monthly salary payments for cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage and above.
Another aspect is the reward given to disciples after they complete the assigned tasks.
In addition, transactions can be conducted using contribution points and spirit stones.
Xu Nian and Wu Qinghuan have taken on a large number of missions in the past six months, and now they have accumulated a lot of contribution points.
And he has accumulated quite a few spirit stones.
It's certainly a rare and precious treasure for the little fox.
The group arrived at the entrance of the lobby.
The two disciples at the door greeted Xu Nian and went inside to inform the elder in charge.
The two siblings had visited the Hall of Affairs many times, and the disciples guarding the gate had long remembered their identities.
There weren't many Nascent Soul stage cultivators in the sect to begin with.
Moreover, this person is not an elder; he has already entered the Nascent Soul stage at a bone age of less than a hundred years.
Its future potential is self-evident.
It has to be someone who has attained the Dao!
It's not impossible for them to even reach the Tribulation Transcending stage!
That is why the disciples and elders of the Hall of Affairs all hold 'Junior Brother Xu' in high regard.
In the cultivation world, strength is paramount.
Whoever is stronger has a more prestigious status.
Within sects, strength naturally prevails.
Therefore, even though many of the older generation of cultivators were elders, they treated Xiao Qingshan and his companion with great courtesy, even respect.
"Junior Brother Xu! Junior Sister Wu! Long time no see!"
At this moment, a purple figure walked into the deacon's hall.
This person is named Xiaoyue, and is the granddaughter of the head of the Hall of Affairs.
He possesses the cultivation level of the third stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
Although young, he is very worldly and shrewd in dealing with people.
"What brings you two here? Here to take on another commission?"
Just as she was saying this, she suddenly saw a petite figure standing behind Wu Qinghuan.
"Hey, whose kid is this?"
Xu Nian smiled, patted the little fox's head, and 'pinched' her towards him.
"It's my junior sister who needs some rare and precious herbs. The list is here."
"Ah, let me see... Xuan Yang Grass, Tian Ming Jade Marrow, Ming Ye Spirit Fruit... Goodness, none of these are cheap spiritual treasures, but they are all common natural treasures. I'll send someone to deliver them to you today or tomorrow. I'll try to collect them all today and deliver them later."
"Okay, thank you, senior sister."
"You're too kind. By the way..." She took out a few bamboo scrolls from her storage bag and handed them over. "These are the missions you asked me to keep an eye out for before, junior brother. They are all high-risk but have generous rewards. However, these are all prepared for elite elders or even deputy hall masters who are at the Void Refinement Realm. Are you sure you can handle them, junior brother?"
Xu Nian smiled and nodded, "Yes, that's fine, thank you."
They accepted the bamboo scroll and paid in advance for the rare and precious spiritual stones.
After exchanging a few polite words, he left.
After this, all contribution points were depleted, and two high-grade spirit stones were used up.
On the way back, Xu Nian patted Wu Qinghuan on the shoulder.
"Junior sister, keep a close eye on her. If the fox clan comes to demand her back in the future, they won't release her without at least twenty high-grade spirit stones."
"Yes, got it."
Wu Qinghuan nodded expressionlessly, her voice icy, "What if you don't give it to me?"
Xu Nian slowly raised her hand and placed it across her neck.
A gentle swipe.
"Wah!" Liu Meng burst into tears, clinging to Wu Qinghuan's leg and sobbing uncontrollably, "No! Don't kill me! Twenty high-grade spirit stones! I'm not even worth that much!"
The little fox cried sadly.
He clung tightly to Wu Qinghuan's leg, his little arms wrapped around his senior sister, refusing to let go.
"I clearly used two high-grade spirit stones! How can it cost twenty?! Fine, I won't use it then! I won't refine the essence blood anymore! Waaaaah... Waaaah..."
"Stop crying, you brat! It's my robe!"
Wu Qinghuan looked at her with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
He tapped Liu Meng on the head.
It took a lot of force to push her away.
Liu Meng wiped away her tears, wiping them from left to right.
Wu Qinghuan looked at her helplessly, "Don't cry, your senior brother is just teasing you."
"Waaaaah... Ah, are you... teasing me?"
She removed her small hand, looked timidly at Xu Nian, and was somewhat afraid of that guy.
She leaned closer to Wu Qinghuan.
The senior sister, who had a terrible temper, had a headache. "You're crying with snot all over your face, and you're still coming up to me. Go away, go away, go away."
"Waaah, my senior sister doesn't want me anymore either."
"Who said you don't want me anymore!"
"Senior sister, hug me..." She opened her arms.
The Holy Son was increasingly troubled.
My head is buzzing.
What is this and what?
Without hesitation, he grabbed the girl by the back of her collar.
They picked her up.
It looks like they're carrying a chick.
Liu Meng's arms and legs hung naturally at her sides.
It swayed slightly as Wu Qinghuan moved around.
After hesitating for a moment, she still held onto Wu Qinghuan's robe with her little hand.
The latter glanced at her, but she still wouldn't let go.
"Look how scared you've made her."
"We were all scared." Xu Nian had a mischievous streak.
The little fox is usually too lively; it's good that it's a bit quiet.
Besides…
These two gold-devouring beasts swallowed two spirit stones in one go.
The money's already paid, what's wrong with teasing her a little?
Is that too much?
Not too much at all!
"Liu Meng, your senior sister said that if you ever secretly hide food from her again and don't share it with her, she'll sell you off."
"Senior brother is lying!"
"If you don't believe me, ask her. She told me about it yesterday, last night."
"I don't believe it! My senior sister is so good to me!"
Although Liu Meng said that, she gripped Wu Qinghuan's robe tighter and tighter with her little hands.
She was very nervous; her palms were sweaty.
The edges of Wu Qinghuan's robe were now somewhat wrinkled.
"Alright, alright, stop scaring her."
"That's right! Don't scare me, you brat! My senior sister is so good to me! The best in the world!"
Xu Nian didn't want to bully her anymore.
But upon hearing the last sentence, he shook his head with a serious expression.
"No, that's not right."
"Huh... what's wrong?"
"Your senior sister and I are the best of friends in the world."
Wu Qinghuan looked at him with dead fish eyes.
The corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
That expression seemed to say: Xu Nian, how childish are you?
Arguing with a little kid here.
But if Xu Nian knew what she was thinking at that moment...
We will definitely argue our case based on reason.
That's just how it is! The two of us are the best!
'Then tell me yourself! Aren't you and I the best of friends in the world?'
'You're all mine now! And you still say it's not the best?'
'What does that little fox know! Only I am your best friend!'
Wu Qinghuan shook her head helplessly.
She pouted, "You childish senior."
