Translator: 549690339
If there are prospects, then one ought to start thinking about a solution. In his mind, Jiang Xiaobai started pondering on what he should do after finding a mineral vein.
However, after tossing and turning all day, he realized that regardless of how things turned out, he needed to find the mineral vein first!
Moreover, he estimated that a significant portion of mineral veins had likely been discovered and mined. Therefore, finding some mineral veins would probably be a challenging task.
Jiang Xiaobai then focused on how to find the mineral veins. He pondered this entire afternoon. He had just finished dinner when Ao Yan walked in from outside, her face indifferent.
The routine remained unchanged; they didn’t speak much.
Thereafter, Jiang Xiaobai sat undisturbed on his mat.
Ao Yan walked into the room indifferently and began to meditate. While meditating, however, she abruptly opened her eyes.
A light seemed to emit from her eyes.
“I never expected your alchemy skills to be quite impressive, keep cultivating.” After saying that, Ao Yan continued to meditate with her eyes closed.
But Jiang Xiaobai silently laughed in his heart. He knows that Ao Yan now values him more, and their relationship has grown even stronger!
Then the following morning, Ao Cheng brought him some minor bad news.
The ancient tribe was due to arrive at Dragon Valley in ten days, and at that time, the ancient tribe’s young master would also arrive.
Originally, the ancient tribe’s visit was to finalize the marriage with Dragon
Valley. However, Ao Yan disliked the idea, she got married to an ordinary
human before they arrived. This was akin to forcefully rubbing the face of the
ancient tribe on the ground.
Because of this, yesterday, some influential figures in Dragon Valley pressured Ao Yan and even suggested killing Jiang Xiaobai. Otherwise, Dragon Valley would inevitably be implicated.
After all, Ao Yan is the hope for Dragon Valley’s rise, they can let her bear the responsibility, but Jiang Xiaobai is just a mortal. Killing him wouldn’t matter, right?
It is just a small temper tantrum by Ao Yan this time.
Ao Yan inevitably disagreed. Afterward, both parties caused a ruckus. With Ao Wan and his father Ao Zhenbei helping from the side, neither party could gain an advantage over another.
However, it’s evident that Jiang Xiaobai became the focal point of this incident.
After everything was narrated by Ao Cheng, Jiang Xiaobai could only feel his head buzzing. It was only then when he realized the reason he was chased and killed before.
If he were in the place of the young master of the ancient tribe, whose face has been trampled on, he would surely seek revenge.
And the best way to seek revenge is to eliminate the person.
At this point, he indeed had a profound sense of crisis!
With just over ten days left, if he couldn’t find a method for counterbalance, he would be doomed!
So if he wants to survive, he must rely on himself!
Seeing Jiang Xiaobai’s confused face, Ao Cheng casually laughed in the corner: “Although the ancient tribe wishes for your death, rest assured, you’re still safe in Dragon Valley.”
“With my sister and I here, we won’t let anything happen to you.”
Jiang Xiaobai laughed bitterly in his heart, holding back hundreds of curse words that he wasn’t sure if he should utter.
If he stupidly sat in Dragon Valley waiting to die, that would indeed be stupid. Seems like, what he thought of yesterday might need to be put into action.
“Tsk, look at you. I’ve said there’s no problem, why do you have a face like you’ve lost your father? Come, show me a smile.” Seeing Jiang Xiaobai silent, Ao Cheng instantly clapped him on the shoulder.
This nearly caused Jiang Xiaobai to stagger. He then calmly said, “Of course,
I’m not afraid of these. I was just thinking about what to eat for breakfast.”
“Hehe, I came to discuss this matter with you.”
Ao Cheng revealed a mysterious smile: “Today, I have already notified the Long Palace. You don’t need to refine the elixir today. This time, I will take you down the mountain for a good stroll.”
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t expect Ao Cheng to come early in the morning for this matter. However, this was good as he needed to go downhill this time.
Jiang Xiaobai then nodded, following a triumphant Ao Cheng out of Dragon Valley, and arrived in Tianyuan City under Ao Cheng’s spiritual guidance.
As soon as they reached Tianyuan City, Ao Cheng did not stop and hurried in one direction. When they reached the place, Jiang Xiaobai saw that it turned out to be a brothel!
Moreover, it was the largest brothel in Tianyuan City.
As expected from the Second Generation Ancestor young master, his idea of fun was only such places.
“Ahem, I just remembered you seem to be my sister’s husband-to-be.
Naturally, you should not come to such a place.”
Ao Cheng with an embarrassed expression, just as he was about to take Jiang Xiaobai inside, suddenly remembered something. He then took out a ring from his pocket and tossed it to Jiang Xiaobai.
“There are a thousand top-grade spirit stones inside, you can use it to stroll around in the city while waiting for me here at night.”
“Also, be thrifty with this money, if you encounter any trouble in the city, just mention my name, no one dares to provoke you.”
Having arrogantly left these words, Ao Cheng strode into the brothel.
Standing at the door, Jiang Xiaobai faintly heard him laughing loudly:
“Hahaha, Xiao YanZhi, have you missed me!”
Clearly, Ao Cheng seemed to be a frequent visitor here.
Feeling the storage ring in his hand, Jiang Xiaobai stood at the entrance of the brothel and shook his head.
“He said he would take me around and ended up leaving me alone to have his fun, this behavior is indeed very much like Ao Cheng.”
Jiang Xiaobai laughed lightly: “That’s alright, as I can attend to other matters.”
Soon after, Jiang Xiaobai merged into the crowd and vanished within moments.
At this point, the Golden Pavilion in the center of Tianyuan City was overcrowded, business was booming many folds than before. Upon closer observation, one could sense many concealed auras in the crowd.
Ever since the emergence of Hu Qing Dan, a pill that can completely eliminate fire poison for sale at the Golden Pavilion, it brought them substantial profits but also a considerable amount of trouble.
Many forces rushed to the Golden Pavilion to figure out what exactly Hu Qing Dan was. Was it produced by the Golden Pavilion, or was it sold by someone else?
The first group of people who were informed of this news belonged to the powerful leagues, the top-tier ones. The person-in-charge at the Golden Pavilion, Qian Dabao, did not hide anything and narrated everything that happened. He also mentioned that given the opportunity, he would introduce the pill seller, the Iron-faced alchemist to these forces.
The groups that came afterward belonged to the medium and small-sized forces. They got some idea of the truth and adopted a strange method of dealing with it- stakeout
And now, people from these forces were watching every corner of the Golden Pavilion, and anyone suspicious would catch their attention.
Just as Jiang Xiaobai, dressed in a black robe with a black iron mask appeared here, he attracted countless gazes. These people stared intently at Jiang Xiaobai’s every move.
This was normal for them, as this was how they spend their past few days.
With Jiang Xiaobai’s current strength, he naturally felt these hidden eyes but didn’t pay any attention to it. This was something that he had predicted earlier.
Having sensed this, he stepped into the Golden Pavilion. It was time to start the follow-up plan..
