“He might not be able to grow the seedling if I give it to him. Besides, he doesn’t have the pill, does he?” Xu Lingfeng said indifferently.

The manager was speechless.

“What are you holding?” Xu Lingfeng asked.

“It is from the third son of the First Master. He is going to marry Miss Li Rao and likes to invite you to the wedding.”

Xu Lingfeng smiled and said, “Big Brother is blessed. His third son is getting married.”

“Second Master, you…”

“I won’t go. Why should I?”

“Second Master, First Master is your brother after all!” said the manager.

Xu Lingfeng smiled and said, “I won’t go because he is my brother. I don’t want to annoy him and vice versa.”



After Xiao Jinting and Xu Muan left the shop, Xu Muan looked at Xiao Jinting and said, “If you can’t buy the seedling, buy more tree juice from the Tree of Magical Weapons, which however seems to be sold in a limited amount.”

“Do you think that guy really wants the Soul Calming Pill or is he trying to tease us?” asked Xiao Jinting.

Xu Muan thought about it and said, “He looks like he wants the pill badly.”

“I think so too, but this guy is already a Nascent Soul.” The Soul Calming Pill had the magical effect of calming the mind and ridding the mind demons for cultivators advancing to Nascent Soul. With the help of the pill, one could deal with the thunder retribution of mind demons easily.

Xu Muan looked at Xiao Jinting and asked, “Do you have any solutions?”

“Not at all. I can’t make something out of nothing.” The main ingredient of Soul Calming Pill was Soul Calming Grass, which was different from Ice Marrow Grass. Ice Marrow Grass existed, although it was not ripe enough. Soul Calming Grass was extinct, and it was impossible to find even a seedling.

Xu Muan didn’t feel well in the afternoon, so he stayed in the inn.

After Xiao Jinting made the inquiry, he went back to meet Xu Muan in the inn.

“I’ve investigated. The Tree of Magical Weapons is unique to the Xu family. In a sense, the tree is the symbol of the Xu family,” Xiao Jinting said.

Xu Muan was surprised, “Aren’t there any other families growing the tree?”

“No, because other families are not able to do that. It is said that the tree is cultivated in a special method. The tree can’t survive in other families than the Xu family,” Xiao Jinting said.

Xu Muan hesitated.

“We met Xu Lingfeng today. He is the second son of the Xu family. He has a brother called Xu Wang, who has four sons. They are Xu Peng, Xu Cheng, Xu Wan, and Xu Li. In local dialect, their names put together mean a promising future,” Xiao Jinting said.

“How about Xu Lingfeng? Does he have any children? “Xu Muan asked.

Xiao Jinting shook his head and said, “I don’t think he has any children. He has a male spouse called Li Yi, but they have been separated for almost a hundred years. I didn’t hear that they have any children. Li Yi comes from a dignified family, and their marriage back then was a matching one.”

“I guess Xu Lingfeng wants to give the Soul Calming Pill to Li Yi,” Xiao Jinting said.

“How do you know?” Xu Muan asked.

“Li Yi tried to advance to Nascent Soul a few years ago, but he failed the retribution of mental demons,” Xiao Jinting said.

Xu Muan narrowed his eyes and said, “Is it possible that Xu Lingfeng cheated on Li Yi and angered him? So they separated?”

Xiao Jinting nodded, “It is possible!”



At Li Yi’s courtyard.

“Young master, Miss Li has sent her invitation, asking you to attend her wedding.”

Li Yi smiled coldly and said, “She’s ambitious!”

Li Yi frowned. Xu Wang and Xu Lingfeng were the most outstanding candidates of the head of the Xu family. Judging from the situation, Xu Wang’s chance was higher than that of Xu Lingfeng.

When the Xu family chose the head of the family, they looked at the ability of the candidates and their descendants.

Xu Wang’s four sons were promising, but Xu Lingfeng…

“Young master, are you going to the wedding?” Li Shuang asked.

Li Yi shook his head and said, “No.”

“Young Master, you and Senior Lingfeng think alike. He is not going either,” Li Shuang said.

Li Yi took a cold look at Li Shuang. “Why do you mention him suddenly? Has he bribed you?”

Li Shuang smiled awkwardly and said, “Young Master, you have got me wrong.”

Li Yi clenched his fists and shook his head. “Forget it.”

Li Shuang took out a box and showed it to Li Yi. “Young master, this is from by Senior Lingfeng.”

Li Yi frowned. “Ask him to spend more time on his cultivation. I don’t need him to worry about me.”

Ever since Li Yi failed to advance to Nascent Soul, Xu Lingfeng had been sending him pills.

“Young master, Senior Lingfeng is worried about you. Besides, he has cut all his ties with his brother,” Li Shuang said.

Li Yi frowned and said, “I told him to be on guard against his big brother long ago, but he thought I was too suspicious. Until he suffered a big loss did he… Forget it. Don’t mention him anymore.”
