Chapter 73: Chapter 73

Sun Qi smiled awkwardly and said, “A while back, my family have kept a close eye on me, and I just had no time to do that.”

Xiao Jingting simperingly said, “Yes? You’re free now. Recently I’ve visited you, but your servant said you’re closing yourself in the door to practice Qi and would not go out until you advance to level four. But I find your cultivation now…” was still at level three!

Sun Qi gave a hollow laugh, “I’m not as talented as you are, and although I’ve closed myself to practice for several months, I just have no achievement. But you’re thriving, brother Xiao, since you’ve advanced to level five at such a young age. As far as I can see, you’ll surely advance to level nine in the future and have tremendous sway in this region.”

Xiao Jingting waved his hand and said, “I dare not expect that. I just want to make my living.”

Seeing Xiao Jingting being quite indifferent, Sun Qi felt embarrassed.

“Brother Xiao, since you don’t always have the chance to come back, let’s give you a party in the Cuiwei Hotel,” said Zheng Liming.

Xiao Jingting rubbed his forehead. How could he suggest to hold a party in a brothel in front of his wife?

Xu Muan stared at Sun Qi with an unhappy look, “You two needn’t to be that polite. Cuiwei Hotel is an expensive place. Just save your money.”

Zheng Liming frowned at Xu Muan and then turned to Xiao Jingting. Obviously, he just thought nothing of and ignored Xu Muan.

Xiao Jingting gave a glance to Xu Muan and replied, “I’ll follow Muan’s idea.”

Zheng Liming said surprisedly, “Brother Xiao, are you going to get self-cultivation? Lady Jin Hong in Cuiwei Hotel misses you and has once inquired about you. Since your leaving last time, she has been sad for you for a long time.”

Xiao Jingting narrowed his eyes. In his impression, Jin Hong was not a young lady, and usually dressed up vulgarly. Once she had been a famous one, but now her day was gone.

She’s a lady with appeal and knew how to coax people, so the previous Xiao Jingting, such a simple guy, used to be fascinated by her. With such a simple but rich guy leaving, how could she not be sad…

Xiao Jingting couldn’t understand the taste of the original body owner by being fond of such a lady. Recalling what the original body owner had done, he just felt headache. God, why was him reborn into such a person!

“Lady Jin Hong’s guests are just too many, how could she still remember me? You’re kidding me,” said Xiao Jingting.

“No, you’re wrong, Jingting. You’re special to her.”

Xu Muan snorted in disgust and said coldly, “Why do you have to introduce to Jingting such a whore being played with by numerous people? What are you up to? If there’s nothing else, just leave here.””

Sun Qi was stunned and stared at Xu Muan surprisedly, then focused his eyes on Xiao Jingting, suggested him to control Xu Muan.

Fondling the ring on his hand, Xiao Jingting ignored Sun Qi’s eyes. Sun Qi then looked at Xu Muan surprisedly, as if he just knew him right now.

“It’s really hard for Jingting to accept your kindness. Just enjoy that lady Jin Hong by yourselves. Jingting’s cultivation is unstable now and he needs a close-door cultivation. Don’t come to visit him if there’s nothing serious,” Xu Muan said furiously.

“Muan, how could you say that?” Sun Qi said discontentedly.

“He’s right. I’m going to close myself to practice,” Xiao Jingting said.

“Brother Xiao, you’re kidding.” Generally speaking, only the one having advanced to level eight or nine needed to close oneself to practice.

“I’m not. Since it’s reasonable for you two to close yourselves to practice with level three, then why can’t I? I’m at level five.”

Sun Qi and Zheng Liming felt quite embarrassed. After responding few words, they escaped.

…………

“Bah, what a snob he is! Just forgets us once becomes flourishing.” As soon as walked out the Xiao family, Sun Qi turned into another person right away.

“Given that even a guy like Xiao Jingting can become a hen-pecked husband, I can’t understand what has Xu Muan done to him,” Zheng Liming said surprisingly.

“He used to think nothing of Xu Muan, and avoid mentioning Xu Muan by feeling sick. But he just became hen-pecked after once wandering outside and returning. It’s just every strange thing could happen these days.”

“I heard that after Xiao Jingting was slung out of the Xiao family, he could only live alone with Xu Muan, thus they became close.”

“Xu Muan just knew how to push his luck. With a lack of beauty in a countryside like that, Xu Muan could be appreciated by Xiao Jingting. After a few days, when Xiao Jingting regained his bad old habits, he’ll even has nowhere to cry.”

“That’s true. He just thinks highly of himself though he was the bastard of a lowborn.”

Before, Xiao Jingting, Sun Qi and Zheng Liming always played around together, and because Xiao Jingting was the most favored and the most well-off one, he was the leader among them.

Sun Qi pretended to be respectful to Xiao Jingting in front of him, but actually he was very jealous about Xiao Jingting. When Xiao Jingting’s parents were gone and he was slung out of the Xiao family, Sun Qi was extremely gloating, considered this bastard to be finally doomed.

But he didn’t expect Xiao Jingting’s parents still to be alive and Xiao Jingting to advance to level five of Qi Practice.

“What a pity. I can’t understand how could he achieve level five of Qi Practice.”

“I heard that’s all by luck. He has discovered some Heaven Wealth and Land Treasure spiritual plant in the wood near the Mound Village, which helps him advance.”

“How could that black sheep obtain such a good luck,” Zheng Liming said jealously.

“Yeah.” Sun Qi went green-eyed.

“Since he could find Heaven Wealth and Land Treasure in the wood near the Mound Village, let’s check there out some time as well.” Zheng Liming suggested.

Sun Qi showed a sad smile, “Do you think only you know that? The secret of Xiao Jingting achieving level five by the help of Heaven Wealth and Land Treasure has been known all around, and the great four families have all sent their people to that wood to check, and they do have discovered some spiritual plants, but all of which are normal species.”

After Sun Qi and Zheng Liming left, Xiao Jingting got relieved. What kind of person the previous him was, just made friend with such bad guys!

“Muan, you’ve done an excellent job just now.” Xiao Jingting said to Xu Muan.

Xu Muan smiled helplessly. How things change! He had never thought that one day he would be able to righteously scold the bad friends of Xiao Jingting.

“You have a number of such friends,” Xu Muan said.

Xiao Jingting tittered, “Unless they never come, once they come, just kick them out.” When the previous Xiao Jingting was in distress, none of those bad friends had ever lent a hand.

“Aren’t you afraid of affecting your reputation?” asked Xu Muan.

Xiao Jingting said disapprovingly, “Why? I don’t have a reputation, anyway.”

Xu Muan felt wordless. That’s just true!
