Chapter 552: Chapter 552

With the help of Long Jingtian, Xiao Xiaojin followed some traces to Heavenly Moon Mansion, but he found Xiao Jinting had left.

Long Jingtian said, “Isn’t your father here?”

Xiao Xiaojin shook his head. “No. I come too late. Father used to grow turnip here. He’s best at growing plants and he shines everywhere he goes.”

Long Jingtian said with disdain, “What’s the big deal that he’s good at growing plants?”

Xiao Xiaojin was speechless.

Long Jingtian plucked a turnip and nibbled on it, spitting it out. “Heavenly Rabbits like to eat the tasteless turnips. It’s not yummy at all.”

Xiao Xiaojin was lost for words. Long Jingtian was a foodie, who only thought of food.

Xiao Xiaojin made some inquiries about Xiao Jinting and learned different rumors about him.

Some rumor said that his father kidnapped his daddy and escaped.

Some rumor claimed that his ruthless father kidnapped his daddy and killed him.

Some rumor said that his father was good in the bedroom and had secret skills.

Some rumor said that his daddy was blind and made the wrong choice.

…

A cultivator pointed at Xiao Xiaojin. “That’s the guy. He’s inquiring about Xiao Jinting. He is Xiao Jinting’s friend.”

Xiao Xiaojin frowned. After Xu Muan escaped, Xu Han for no reason told everyone that Xiao Jinting kidnapped his fiancé and posted a reward.

When Xiao Xiaojin openly inquired about Xiao Jinting, he was targeted.

Xiao Xiaojin stepped behind Long Jingtian and said, “Beat them off, and I’ll make you a big pot of meat.” He drew a big pot in the air.

Long Jingtian frowned. He took the chance and said, “One pot is not enough. At least ten pots.”

Xiao Xiaojin pulled a long face. “Ten pots? Too many. Two pots.”

Long Jingtian shook his head. “Eight pots.”

“Too many. My hands will break.”

Long Jingtian disagreed. “Although you are weaker than me, you are a False Immortal. Your hands won’t break.”

…

After haggling, they reached the deal that Xiao Xiaojin would make Long Jingtian four pots of meat.

Long Jingtian transformed back to his original form, and his overwhelming power oppressed the cultivators, who could hardly breathe.

Long Jingtian floated in the sky with his imposing body.

He roared angrily, and the cultivators that came to catch Xiao Xiaojin fell.

Xiao Xiaojin watched Long Jingtian show his power and thought, “This guy looks like Father when he fights, but he is bad-tempered. Father is far better than him.”

…

In Meteorite Shop, Xiao Jinting kept changing his gestures, and a third-grade pill started to form in the cauldron.

Xu Muan looked at him and asked, “Did you make it?”

Xiao Jinting nodded. “Yes.”

He had the ability to advance to the third grade, but he didn’t know how. In fact, it was not difficult to be a third-grade alchemist. The key to making a third-grade pill was to swirl the cauldron to turn the liquid into pills.

Xu Muan said, “Shang Jin failed in making the pills. You can’t get any extra pay.”

Xiao Jinting smiled and said, “It’s fine.” He had got what he wanted from the job.

Xiao Jinting stayed inside and didn’t go out. He heard a knock on the door.

He opened the door and walked out. “Miss. Xu, what’s up?”

“Mr. Xiao, thank you for coming to work for us. This is your pay.” Xu Qianxia handed Xiao Jinting a space ring full of Immortal Crystal.

Xiao Jinting said, “Thank you.”

Qianxia looked at Xiao Jinting and said, “We like to hire you as our alchemist. What do you think?”

Xiao Jinting smiled and shook his head. “I’m sorry, but I prefer a free life.” He had too many secrets, and he might expose them if he lived under the nose of the shop.

Qianxia didn’t press him. “In this case, I won’t force you. Let’s forget about it.”

Xiao Jinting looked at her and said, “Thank you.”

“Mr. Xiao, I heard a strange story today. Are you interested in it?”

Xiao Jinting said, “Yes, please tell me.”

“Xu Han, a third-grade weapon refinery specialist in the Xu family in Golden Armor, is handsome and competent in refining, but someone was so bold that he stole Xu Han’s fiancé. Xu Han has posted a generous reward for tracking the bold man,” said Qianxia with a faint smile.

Xiao Jinting was speechless.
