Xiao Qingyan said doubtfully, “Xiaofan is a child. How could he do that? I don’t believe that he is quick-sighted.”

Xiao Jingting said helplessly, “Brother, gambling on stones does not rely on quick sight but on good luck. My son had good luck. He gambled to get a spiritual pearl and I was promoted by taking the pearl. After that, I took him to the major gambling houses to buy stones. But, Xiaofan ran out of his good luck at the first time. He didn’t get something useful anymore.”

In fact, Xiao Jingting lied. Xiao Xiaofan swept all the gambling houses, and got many valuable things. Xiao Jingting left some to Xu Muan, and he kept some himself.

“You traded the pearl for a Dream Birdwood Flower?” asked Xiao Linfeng.

Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes! I’ve heard that the Dream Birdwood Flower has a wonderful effect on breaking through the barrier for a level-5 practitioner.”

Xiao Qingyan could not help but say, “A spiritual pearl is much more precious than an flower.”

Xiao Qingyan had already known that Xiao Jingting took Xiao Xiaofan to the big gambling houses, and he reproved Xiao Jingting in front of Xiao Linfeng. But he had not expected… Xiao Xiaofan, that little fool had good luck to get a spiritual pearl from the stones. Why didn’t he have such a good luck?

Xiao Qingyan had also been to a gambling house, but he spent thousands of taels of silver for nothing, and then he stopped it on time.

Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes! But the Dream Birdwood Flower is more useful for me. There will be much danger for me in the competition, and I think promotion is the most important now for me.”

Xiao Qingyan, “…”

Xiao Linfeng looked at Xiao Jingting, and he signed after a long while.

After all, his youngest son was not the same as before. In the past, he would have consulted with him at least, but now he had quietly made a choice.

…………………

In the inn.

“Brother, there seems to be something wrong!” said Zhou Kangqi.

Zhou Kangqi had always thought his elder brother was the first among the younger generation of Desert City, but before this competition, Zheng Family and Sun Family had got a level-6 practitioner genius respectively, and Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng of the Xiao Family were also level-6 practitioners too.

“It’s said there is always someone more competent and capable than you in the world. There are many talents in this world,” said Zhou Kanghe. But his heart hurt.

Zhou Kanghe had always thought that his was not stronger enough in a big city, but he must have been one of the best in Desert city. Unexpectedly, many talents like him had come out all of a sudden.

Xiao Qingyan was not young, but Xiao Jingting was only less than 20 years old. He hadn’t been a level-6 practitioner until at the age of 23. Xiao Jingting, as a black sheep, was really getting a chance to start over again.

Zhou Kangqi frowned as he thought. When he laid a trap to poison Xiao Jinfeng, that poison master had told him that Xiao Jinfeng would have been a level-4 Qi Practitioner for his whole life. But, he had caught up with his elder brother not less than two years later. He knew that Xiao Jinfeng was not a kind man, who would kill him if Xiao Jinfeng found a chance since he entrapped him.

Zhou Kangqi felt blue fear as he touched his neck.

“Do you have a countermeasure, brother?” asked Zhou Kangqi.

Zhou Kanghe said in a slight voice, “There are innumerable geniuses to take part in the competition this time. You must have a wider vision and don’t focus only on the people of Desert City.”

Zhou Kangqi said with a flattering smile, “Yes, brother, you are foresighted better than me.”

…………………

The elder of Sun Family was walking back and forth in a room of the inn.

Sun Miaoyin and Sun Miaomiao sat at the table, saying nothing.

“I have never thought! Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng are level-6 Qi practitioners now. What kind of luck they have! You are now a member of the Xiao Family. Have you got any news? Did they get a great chance while they were out?” asked the elder to Sun Miaomiao.

Sun Miaomiao shook her head and said, “No! I know nothing about it.” She didn’t really get any news. She had been surprised to know that Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng were promoted to level-5 practitioners, needless to say they were already level-6 practitioners.

“I didn’t expect Xiao Jingting to be so successful now,” said the elder with a sigh.

Sun Miaomiao gritted her teeth. She had never dreamed that, a man she had looked down upon, could have such achievement now. Maybe everything would have been different if she didn’t choose Xiao Muhong. Xiao Jingting was a level-6 practitioner less than twenty-six years old, who was strong as much as Zhou Kanghe her sister got married with.

If she had married Xiao Jingting, she did not need to envy her sister who had married a good man!

“It’s unreasonable for Xiao Jinfeng to be promoted so quickly. There must be a secret for the two brothers,” said the elder.

Sun Miaoyin nodded and said, “Yes, there must be a secret.”

Even if Xiao Jingting turned over a new leaf, it was unreasonable for him to become a level-6 practitioner in such a short time.

She believed that Xiao Linfeng might not know Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jingfeng had been promoted to level-6 practitioners according to his reaction today. As she knew, Xiao Linfeng prepared a lot of valuable things to protect Xiao Qingyan, but he provided only something worthless for Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jingfeng.

If Xiao Linfeng had known Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jinfeng were already level-6 practitioners, he couldn’t have favored Xiao Qingyan too much over them. Xiao Qingyan might have been kept in the dark because he was embarrassed at that time.

Thinking of Xiao jinfeng, Sun Miaoyin sighed slightly. She had looked down upon Xiao Jinfeng, but now she knew Xiao Jinfeng was not worse than Zhou Kanghe. What a regret…

“I didn’t know the Zheng Family had kept a genius in secret like our Sun Family,” said the elder.

Sun Miaoyin was upset. Sun Miaoyin had been one of the best young talents cultivated by her family since a child. She had thought she knew almost all the major affairs about the family. But, as a daughter of lineal descent, she did not know a genius of level-6 practitioner was concealed by her family.

“I didn’t know there was such a genius in Sun’s Family,” said Sun Miaomiao ironically. Like Sun Miaoyin, Sun Miaomiao was also very uncomfortable after she knew there was a talent called Sun Mingcheng.

The elder squinted, and said, “For the sake of lasting peace and stability of our family, we must keep a trump card.”

Sun Miaoyin nodded and said, “You’re right, elder.” Sun Miayin could understand what her family did, but she still felt uncomfortable.
