CHAPTER 908: CHAPTER 908: CONTEMPT

What Sixth Brother said is right. For Yuanyuan to agree to take photos is probably her way of trying to give them some protection. After all, she is a celebrity now, and if there’s a problem that truly cannot be resolved, perhaps this group photo could be useful.

In fact, the most important thing is that it’s really unknown when they will meet again. This is truly a longing.

I want my son to remember what his godmother looks like.

When Chengzi got back, he heard that his sister-in-law had gone to a meeting. He went directly to find her. Standing outside the door, he heard his sister-in-law’s fierce words inside. Chengzi laughed; that’s exactly how it should be.

After the meeting ended, he saw his sister-in-law come out with a calm expression and glanced at the people in the meeting room. Good for her. It’s likely they’ll face consequences later. She has always been someone who holds grudges.

That’s just how it is. No one dares to complain about her.

Qin Zhiyuan came out and gave Chengzi a bitter smile. Really, it wasn’t my fault, you know?

Now, Su Yuanyuan is under a lot of pressure. Work is one aspect, but mainly it’s because she’s at odds with herself. Now she almost calls or meets with the Ministry of Economy every day.

Chengzi knows that due to the previous incident, she can’t get over it. She must be thinking of ways to make the country and people wealthier.

She’s so busy every day, like her feet never touch the ground. On the other hand, Tan Shaoting has a relatively easier time with a few kids to care for.

After they returned from the long-armed ape, father and son have been keeping an eye in that direction, hoping for the ape to ascend.

Yet after a month, there’s still no sign of success. "Dad, does this mean it didn’t succeed?" Qi Yan asked.

"I’m not sure either; I’ll go and take a look."

"Dad, why don’t we all go take a look? Many people are watching you now, both from the sect and the neighbors."

"You guys go? I’m worried, the ascension of demon beasts is quite dangerous."

While they were discussing, the array was triggered.

"Dad, these female cultivators are so annoying. Why do they come by every day? Don’t they need to cultivate? Even if they don’t need to cultivate, we do. Can’t they see the ’Do Not Disturb’ sign outside?"

Really can’t stand the big sister of the sect anymore. Wonder what’s on her mind? They’ve made it very clear that they’re unfriendly, but she still comes every day?

Tan Shaoting patted his second son. "I’ll go out and take a look." He doesn’t let her in anymore, but she still comes every day.

Qi Yan and the other two were unhappy as they returned to the house.

Tan Shaoting went out of the array but didn’t open the array door. He just stood outside. "Senior Sister, is there something you need?"

"Mr. Tan, I have something to discuss with you."

"Senior Sister, let’s talk here. The kids are cultivating."

"Mr. Tan, a disciple discovered a high-level demon beast inside Wolf Tooth Mountain."

"Senior Sister, I’m not interested in that. We have to focus on our cultivation. Please don’t come to us with such matters in the future. We want to enter the secret realm. It’s a mixed bag in there, one needs capability to be safe.

Please, go back, Senior Sister. We father and sons won’t participate in any activities anymore."

After Tan Shaoting finished speaking, he turned and went back into the array. Outside, Luo Yinghui frowned. Does he thoroughly disdain me?

If it were the old me, I really wouldn’t come here anymore. After all, I am proud too, but father sent a message. Now every sect is seeking disciples with a Thunder Spirit Root. That little kid from the Zheng Family they talked about, although said to be Thunder Spirit Root, only has a thirty-percent spirit root.

Such a spirit root, even if it’s a Thunder Spirit Root, what’s the use? Even if elixirs are used to pile up his cultivation, what good would it do?

So the upper echelons of all the sects on the continent have discussed it. They believe the phenomenon last time must have been due to someone else.

But they just can’t find them. Now they have no choice but to search carpet-style.

Previously, all Shushan Sect disciples at Wolf Tooth Mountain Market were re-tested for Spirit Roots. No Thunder Spirit Root was found, and it’s not just the Shushan Sect doing this. Other sects are busy with the same operation.

It’s said that disciples from all outside sects have participated. But there truly hasn’t been any news.

Father informed me to stay close to the Tan family father and sons. But these four are really hard to approach; I’ve tried everything. Previously I could still get in, but now they don’t let me in at all.

The secret realm will open in a bit over a year. If it doesn’t work, I’ll just wait patiently. There will still be a chance once we’re inside.

Luo Yinghui is also a proud girl, and being so rejected, she felt very ashamed. So she just turned and left.

The cultivators next door from the Heavenly Profound Sect, especially the two female cultivators, were having a great time in the courtyard. "Always pretending to be something, but gets turned away every time. Such a loss of face."

"Indeed, isn’t this Senior Sister something else? And Mr. Tan is really cold-blooded. This is the daughter of the Sect Leader, the big sister of the sect; how can he treat her this way?"

The other three male cultivators simply sat and listened. No one said anything.

Actually, they had heard before how impressive the big sister of the Shushan Sect was. The rumors outside described her as an exceptionally outstanding female cultivator.

Originally, because of sparse interaction, they believed it. But by watching her actions from the sides, their illusions shattered. It really came as a surprise.

They used to speak a few good words for the big sister of the Shushan Sect, only to be rebuked by sect junior sisters. So they grew smarter and kept quiet, as it had nothing to do with them.

"Oh wow, since I saw the big sister of the Shushan Sect left outside, I don’t bother Mr. Tan anymore."

"Yes, I don’t go either. Who knows what disdain they hold in their hearts for her! She’s happy with herself, truly widened my horizons."

The two female cultivators exchanged barbs about Luo Yinghui. Anyway, she couldn’t hear them.

Even if she could hear, there’s no fear. Her father might be the Sect Leader, but their master is still an elder in the sect. Besides, the Shushan Sect can’t even compare to the Xuantian Sect.

Meeting her, calling her a Senior Sister, she truly takes herself as the high and mighty big sister. Really leaves people speechless.

Tan Shaoting is still quite worried about the long-armed ape. So after entering the array, he told the three children not to go out, that he himself would go take a look.

Qi Yan and the others saw their father’s insistence, and agreed.

Tan Shaoting left the market and headed straight into the depths of Wolf Tooth Mountain.

Luo Yinghui, at the teahouse outside, saw Tan Shaoting hurriedly leaving. She was very curious why he was leaving, so she followed him out of the market.

Watching him enter Wolf Tooth Mountain, she felt a bit of disdain towards Tan Shaoting.
