Chapter 62 Su Xin’s Little Cotton-padded Jacket is About to Run Away
Before the Xu Family arrived in Lingyue City, Su Xinyan left ahead of them and returned to Lingyue Sect.
She planned to move some rare treasures she had cultivated in her cave dwelling, preparing to move directly into the Xu Family.
Soon after, the large flying boat of the Xu Family landed in front of Lingyue City. After disembarking, the Xu Family members followed Xu Qingzhou into Lingyue City.
Many of them were visiting a major city of this level for the first time, so they looked around curiously, like village youths entering the city for the first time.
Their appearance, coupled with their large number, made it obvious to anyone what was happening.
"Where did these bumpkins come from? And in such a large group?"
"Looking at the strength of this Family, it seems quite ordinary. How dare they move to Lingyue City? They have some nerve."
"I bet that within half a month, they will either slink back to their hometown or be completely devoured by others."
"Definitely, this kind of thing is too common."
Flying was prohibited in the bustling urban area. Only after arriving in the suburbs did they fly together towards Chaoxia Peak.
As the wealthy area of Lingyue City, Chaoxia Peak boasted pleasant scenery and abundant spiritual energy, comparable to the mountain gates of some second-rate forces.
Therefore, when the Xu Family members arrived in front of the Xu Family Courtyard on Chaoxia Peak, they all exclaimed in surprise.
"The environment here is really good, and the spiritual energy is so abundant."
"Oh my god! This huge courtyard will be our Xu Family's from now on?"
"To be honest, I thought that coming to Lingyue City, where every inch of land is precious and housing prices are astonishing, we might have to live in small wooden houses. I didn't expect such an environment."
"Yes, if we had known this, what were we worried about?"
Previously, many Family members held the attitude of 'better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix,' thinking that coming to Lingyue City might not be as comfortable as living in Yuhe City, and thus were reluctant to move to Lingyue City.
Now, they were all grinning from ear to ear.
Hearing the commotion outside, before Xu Qingzhou could open the door, it opened on its own, and Xu Muge walked out.
"Why are you here so early?"
Previously, Xu Qingzhou had said they would depart in the morning, but the matter of the Chief of Kuangfeng Stronghold made him feel it was better to move sooner, hence the earlier arrival.
Xu Muge, who had been separated from his parents for a year, finally saw them, and his parents wept with joy.
The Family was finally reunited.
Butler Fu welcomed the Family members and began helping them tidy up their new home.
Meanwhile, under the guidance of Zheng Guan, Elders and True Disciples of Lingyue Sect began to arrive at the Xu Family with gifts.
And they came in a high-profile manner, which many people on Chaoxia Peak noticed.
This was deliberately arranged by Xu Muge. He was creating momentum for the Xu Family, telling the families and forces in Lingyue City the background of the newly moved Xu Family, so they would be honest in the future and not provoke them.
In just half an hour, more than ten Elders from Lingyue Sect arrived, as well as True Disciples.
These were all people who had good relationships with Xu Muge in the past and came specifically to show their support.
Among them, Elder Li, who had already known Xu Qingzhou, was also the earliest to arrive, accompanied by Elder Wang from the inner sect.
Elder Wang asked curiously, "Senior Brother, what gift are you planning to give?"
He himself had recently refined a few batches of pills, but he felt that these pills were difficult to refine and it would be a shame to give them away, so he wanted to ask. If the gift Elder Li was giving was not too valuable, he would also change his gift.
"A mid-grade Earth Rank Cultivation Technique I obtained in a ruin before," Elder Li replied.
He knew the secret between Xu Qingzhou and Su Xinyan, so the gift he gave was naturally exceptionally precious.
"What?"
The usually steady Elder Wang suddenly exclaimed, almost losing his balance and falling from the air.
That was a mid-grade Earth Rank Cultivation Technique! It was rare even in a first-rate force like Lingyue Sect.
In a second-rate force like Seven Stars Sect, it would be the strongest Cultivation Technique.
With a Cultivation Technique of this level, one could even establish a sect and build a powerful Family force.
For Elder Li to give such a rare and precious item as a housewarming gift to the Xu Family was a bit difficult for Elder Wang to understand.
"Is this a partial scroll?"
"No, it's complete."
"Then is it difficult to Cultivate?"
"Not difficult to Cultivate."
Elder Wang looked at him with a puzzled expression, "Then why are you giving this Cultivation Technique as a gift?"
"When I went to the Azure Dragon Secret Realm before, I hit it off with Xu Family Head at first sight, and I don't need this Cultivation Technique, so I wanted to give it to him," Elder Li replied.
Elder Wang pouted, clearly not believing this explanation.
A Earth Rank Cultivation Technique that wasn't needed could be auctioned at Wanbao Pavilion; there was no need to give it away directly.
Elder Wang said earnestly, "We have been Senior Brothers for so many years, is there anything we can't say?"
"You'll know in the future," Elder Li said with a troubled expression. It wasn't that he didn't want to say, but rather that he didn't dare to say.
He could guarantee that he wouldn't leak the secret, but he couldn't guarantee that Elder Wang wouldn't.
Once the matter of Xu Qingzhou and Su Xinyan spread, Su Xinyan would definitely come to find trouble with him.
Therefore, pretending not to know and saying nothing was the safest approach.
After many Elders arrived, someone from the Qiao family, a third-rate force in Lingyue City, also sent a housewarming gift, and even the current Qiao Family Head personally came.
Xu Qingzhou received the Qiao Family Head in confusion, taking the opportunity to ask Xu Muge what was going on.
"Is this Qiao family related to Lingyue Sect?"
Xu Muge chuckled, "There is a Supreme Elder in Lingyue Sect who is the Old Ancestor of the Qiao family. The Qiao family was able to gain a foothold in Lingyue City because of him."
Xu Qingzhou suddenly understood. No wonder the Qiao family came. It turned out they knew Xu Muge's status in Lingyue Sect and came to make connections in advance. In that case, cooperation was possible.
As noon approached, in the Xu Family Courtyard, tables laden with delicious food were ready.
Xu Qingzhou, the Elders of Lingyue Sect, and the Qiao Family Head sat together, drinking and chatting happily.
Soon, the news of the Xu Family spread throughout Lingyue City. In the streets, alleys, and small taverns, people occasionally discussed it.
"Hey, have you heard? Another Family moved to Lingyue City today."
"Oh? How strong are they?"
"Never mind their strength, they live in one of the largest courtyards on Chaoxia Peak. Some people even saw over a dozen Elders and True Disciples from Lingyue Sect go to congratulate them, and the Qiao Family Head also went."
"Hiss! Are they that powerful? It seems I need to remind my Family to be careful and not offend them."
"Good point."
…..
As soon as Su Xinyan returned to her cave dwelling in Lingyue Sect, her Father Su Xin sensed it and rushed over.
"Father, how did you know I was back?" Su Xinyan was a little surprised. She had planned to leave after tidying up without telling Su Xin.
Su Xin smiled, "Your Junior Brother has been incredibly happy these past few days. After asking him, I found out that the Xu Family is moving to Lingyue City."
He paused, then asked, "How is it? Is there any progress with your Cultivation Technique?"
"A little, but it's still a bit short, so I want to go out again," Su Xinyan turned around, pretending to bend down and examine a spiritual flower.
Because she was lying, her ears were red. If Su Xin saw them, he would definitely see through her.
Fortunately, Su Xin trusted her enough.
"As long as there is progress, be careful when you are out. If you encounter anything you can't solve, come back immediately. Your Father is here."
Su Xinyan nodded, "I understand, Father."
Su Xin saw that she was busy and left, unaware that his little cotton-padded jacket might bring him back a few grandsons the next time she returned.
