Chapter 348: Chapter 348

“Mr. Chen, congratulations! I heard that your grandson has come back.” Guo Yi said with a smile.

Chen Lifeng let out a soft snort and complained, “Yeah, he finally came back after being away from home for so many years.”

Chen Xu lowered his head in embarrassment.

Guo Yi looked at Xiao Xiaodong and said, “Is this Mr. Xiao, your grandson-in-law? He is talented.”

Chen Lifeng said indifferently, “Mr. Guo, you flatter him. What kind of talent is he? He advanced to Golden Core when he was almost forty years old. I wonder when he could advance to Nascent Soul.”

Guo Yi pursed his mouth and said inwardly, “Why are you disgruntled about this? You advanced to Golden Core when you were over one hundred. Why do you look down on a young man, who advanced to Golden Core before he turned forty? Nascent Soul? Is it that easy to advance to that level?”

“Mr. Chen, your grandson is a Golden Core as well. Congratulations!” Guo Yi said.

Chen Lifeng nodded and said, “Thank you. Xu’er has made some achievement, with which I’m very gratified.”

Guo Yi nodded and said, “Mr. Chen, your grandson is excellent. He has become a Golden Core at such a young age, and he has a high chance of advancing to Nascent Soul.”

“It is still a long way to go for him. Mr. Guo, who is this young lady?”

“This is Xie Wanran, the Golden Core of Spiritual Medicine Sect.”

“Miss Xie, long time no see!” Xiao Xiaodong said.

Xie Wanran looked at Xiao Xiaodong and forced a smile, “Long time no see!”

Guo Yi was surprised. “Mr. Xiao, did you meet Miss Xie before?”

Xiao Xiaodong nodded and said, “We’ve met a few times in Green Cloud Immortal Sect.”

Xie Wanran looked at Xiao Xiaodong, her thoughts racing in her mind. When she was in Green Cloud Immortal Sect, Xiao Xiaodong’s cultivation level was far lower than her, but now he had caught up with her.

…

Guo Yi chatted with Chen Lifeng for a while and gave him two gifts before leaving with Xie Wanran.

“Every cloud has a silver lining. I had thought that the old man’s grandson would not be back. I was wrong.” Guo Yi said.

Xie Wanran walked besides Guo Yi and said, “Xiao Xiaodong and Chen Xu’s cultivation has improved very quickly!”

Guo Yi nodded and said, “Yeah. The Xiao family is all Golden Cores now, and we can’t underestimate them. If they have a Nascent Soul, they will be a major family.”

Xie Wanran narrowed her eyes. In Spiritual Medicine Sect, her cultivation had improved quite quickly, but she was far behind Xiao Xiaodong and Chen Xu.

“Chen Lifeng’s grandson used to be three spiritual roots. For some reason, his cultivation improves quickly. Chen Lifeng let his grandson enter the secret realm to look for Spirit Cleansing Grass. Maybe Chen Xu found it,” Guo Yi said.

Xie Wanran pondered and thought it was very likely.

“Does Mu Yun often go to Green Cloud Immortal Sect?” Guo Yi asked.

Xie Wanran said awkwardly, “Yes.”

“What’s wrong with him? He is from Spiritual Medicine Sect. Why does he go there frequently?” Guo Yi was annoyed, but he didn’t dare to lecture Mu Yun, who had become a Nascent Soul. If they had a fight, Guo Yi might not be the rival of Mu Yun, who might leave the sect if he was crossed.

Xie Wanran gritted her teeth and said sullenly, “Mr. Mu doesn’t take my advice!”

Guo Yi sighed without saying anything else.

…

“Xiaojin, take it.” Xiao Xiaodong threw a box at Xiao Xiaojin.

Xiao Xiaojin took the box and said joyfully, “Bro, did Mr. Chen introduce you to the Nascent Souls?”

Xiao Xiaodong nodded and said, “Yeah.” Chen Lifeng brought him to meet some Nascent Souls and showed off all the time as if he was a treasure. He felt frustrated.

“Bro, this magic weapon is not bad,” Xiao Xiaojin said.

Xiao Xiaodong lazily said, “I’m glad you like it.” Xiao Jinting was much richer than ordinary Nascent Souls, so Xiao Xiaodong didn’t take a fancy to the gifts from these Nascent Souls.

“Bro, are you injured?” Xiao Xiaojin blinked.

Xiao Xiaodong said faintly, “When I was practicing with Mr. Chen this afternoon, I accidentally got injured.”

Xiao Xiaojin blinked and said, “Brother, although Chen Xu is very gentle, his grandfather is very fierce. You will have a hard time.”

Xiao Xiaodong rolled his eyes and said, “You don’t have to worry about that.”

“Xiao Fan and Lei Xuan have been away for a few days,” Xiao Xiaodong muttered.

Xiao Xiaojin nodded, “Yeah. The Lei family suffered quite some casualties in the war between the righteous and demonic sects, so they are out of talents. Lei Xuan goes back because the Lei family wants him to take over the position of the clan leader.”

Xiao Xiaodong rolled his eyes and said, “What is so good being a clan leader?” Although the head of the clan could enjoy the clan resources, he had to spend a lot of efforts on managing the clan affairs. Lei Xuan didn’t look like a clan leader.

Xiao Xiaojin nodded, “You are right.”
