âCan you blame me when you did those shameless things yourself?â Xiao Qingyan also knew that his attitude towards Xiao Jinfeng was too much. However, Xiao Qingyan didnât expect that Xiao Jinfeng would directly expose this matter directly in front of their parents. Xiao Qingyan who had been humiliated, simply spoke bluntly at once.
Xiao Jinfeng snorted and said nothing.
Xiao Jingting rubbed his nose. When Xiao Jinfeng got along with him, he was always very generous. Xiao Jingting did not expect that Xiao Jinfeng would be so sharp. Whatever grievances he had, he said it on the spot, not even bothering to do superficial work.
Xiao Linfengâs face darkened as he saidï¼Â âEnough, you are brothers. How can brothers have overnight feud? Jinfeng, your elder brother was just joking, why are you so upset about it?â
Xiao Jinfeng kept a straight face and didnât say anything. His parents still chose to side with Xiao Qingyan, even though he expected it, Xiao Jinfeng was still a little disappointed.
Wang Lu looked at Xiao Jingting and said earnestly, âJingting! This was such a good thing, you should have kept a copy for your elder brother. If your elder brother lives a better life, it will also be good for you.â
âThe stuff was found by Xu Muan, so I was just sharing Xu Muanâs good fortune,â Xiao Jingting said.
Wang Lu disapproved âXu Muan is just your concubine, your words can decide if he will be beaten or sold. All of his things are naturally yours.â
Xiao Jingting laughed as he said, âMisery shows the truth. (TN: Miserable situations reveal the true face of people. Or when you are down, only then you know whoâs true to you.) This time when I was driven to Mound Village, only Muan accompanied me. All of my former confidantes hid far away, so I think I need to treat Muan better.â
Wang Lu looked at Xiao Jingting in surprise. She froze for a moment, then nodded and said, âYou are right to think so.â
âAlthough heavenly treasures are good, they always have their limitations. Your strength was not enough to take heavenly treasures so early. I am afraid it will develop resistance in your bodies, affecting your future advancement,â Xiao Linfeng said.
Xiao Jinfeng didnât care, âI was poisoned before. My meridians were already damaged. I thought that for my whole life, I would be stuck at level four of Qi Practice. After taking the heavenly treasure, at least I entered the fifth level, so it was definitely a blessing for me. With my cultivation of fifth level of Qi practice, at least I should be able to rest assured.â
Xiao Jinfeng didnât tell the truth. His meridians had already recovered under the effect of the spiritual wine. Thinking that his parents had always wanted him to help Xiao Qingyan in the future, Xiao Jinfeng simply discredited himself.
Xiao Linfeng sighed and said, âIâve wronged you.â Although Xiao Linfeng was biased towards his eldest son, Xiao Jinfeng was also Xiao Linfengâs son after all. Xiao Linfeng was still heartbroken when something happened to him.
â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦
Coming out of Xiao Linfengâs place, Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng left together.
Xiao Qingyanâs eyes were filled with malicious intentions as he looked at the backs of Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng.
âQingyan! Your two brothers left together.â Zheng Peiâer walked up to Xiao Qingyan.
Xiao Qingyan nodded and said, âYes.â
âThose two brothers of yours became really close now.â Zheng Peiâer frowned.
Xiao Qingyan snorted coldly and said, âThe two of them are now united to deal with me.â
âQingyan, how did your two younger brothers improve so fast, as well as their two wives and those two little brats?â Xiao Yuefengâs advancement to the second level of Qi Practice was something that Zheng Peiâer had always been proud of. But she didnât expect that one of Xiao Jingtingâs two brats would also be at second level of Qi Practice.
âThey said, they ate a heavenly treasure and all of sudden, their cultivation advanced.â Xiao Qingyan said sourly.
Zheng Peiâer eyes became red with envy, âHeavenly treasure, is there any left?â
Xiao Qingyan shook his head and said, âI heard itâs gone.â Xiao Qingyan didnât believe it was gone. It was just that his two younger brothers had a prejudice against him and didnât want to share it.
âYour brothers are so lucky!â Zheng Peiâer gritted her teeth. She was only at the fourth level of Qi Practice. As a result, both Xiao Jinfeng and Xiao Jingtingâs wives were at fifth level of Qi Practice, but they were just unpresentable Gers! Why were they worthy of taking heavenly materials!?
âThat child of your second brother is not a small kid anymore. It looks like your brother had already hooked up with that Ger before Sun Miaoyin broke off the engagement with him.â Zheng Peiâer secretly thought: It was said before that Xiao Jinfeng was chivalrous and righteous, but turns out it was all nonsense. Xiao Jinfeng was probably not a decent good man.
Xiao Qingyan had just been embarrassed in front of his parents and was full of anger at the mention of Xiao Jinfeng. âFather said that taking heavenly materials has both advantages and disadvantages. Iâm afraid that my brother has developed resistance. In the future, it will be difficult for him to advance to the sixth level of Qi Practice.â
Hearing it, Zheng Peiâer said, âWell! What a shame!â Her face might have looked sad but she was gloating a little in her heart.
â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦
The news that Xiao Jingting and the other three were all level five Qi practitioners spread throughout the Xiao Family like wildfire. That night, countless people in the Xiao family had difficulty sleeping.
âXiao Jingting has actually advanced to the fifth level of Qi Practice.â Sun Miaomiao squinted her eyes. She didnât go to meet Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng today and all the news was what she heard from others.
âYou must be mistaken!â Sun Miaomiao looked at Xiao Muhong.
Xiao Muhong shook his head and said, âAbsolutely not.â
Sun Miaomiao said in a puzzled manner, âHow could this prodigal son advance to the fifth level? It doesnât make sense.â
âI heard that they ate a heavenly treasure, so thatâs why they advanced,â Xiao Muhong said.
Zheng Peiâer couldnât keep her mouth shut. Knowing about the matter of the Heavenly treasure, she immediately publicized it to the whole family. When Liu Xian heard that a Heavenly treasure was found in the mountain forest near Mound Village, her heart was remorseful and her liver ached. She regretted why she didnât send Xiao Jingting to a different place initially.
