Chapter 879: Heading to Zhong State
"We are willing! We are one hundred - no - one thousand percent willing! I, Huo Yuanba officially see you as my Sifu!"
"I, Huo Qiaoqiao would like to show my gratitude to my Sifu as well!"
Huo Yuanba and Huo Qiaoqiao were now officially Chen Xiaobei's disciples.
Both of them had been ready to become Chen Xiaobei's servants earlier. With that being said, their status in the faction would be the lowest among the rest. But everything would change for them once they had become Chen Xiaobei's disciples - they would gain a name, identity for themselves and even a bright future.
With their own eyes, they saw Chen Xiaobei defeated Xia Dinxi, Blood Descendants, and Liu Family members easily. Even a fool would understand that even though Chen Xiaobei was not a demigod, he would possess a wealth of unimaginable resources!
Huo Yuanba had a strong suspicion that by sanctioning Chen Xiaobei as their master and joining the Bei Xuan Faction would be better than joining any other ancient faction. Clearly, now he knew that he had a bright future waiting for him. Calling Chen Xiaobei his Sifu was not hard for Huo Yuanba at all. Instead, he felt that this was a golden opportunity for him and his sister.
As a matter of fact, his hunch was right. In the near future, he would be extremely grateful for this.
Of course, only time would tell.
"Xuanxin, I think you should go back to Bei Xuan Faction with me. I think you are safe if you all by yourself!"
Chen Xiaobei invited as he turned to face to Liu Xuanxin.
"No! I'm not going!" Liu Xuanxin refused, "I have my own way of dealing with things. There's nothing unsafe about it! I have already made my decision! So please stop pestering me."
"Why do I have the feeling that you are avoiding me?"
Chen Xiaobei narrowed his eyes. He smelt something fishy.
"Who... Who's avoiding you?" Liu Xuanxin braced herself and said, "Men and women should not touch! I don't want to get involved with you!"
"Well, if you refuse to stay in Bei Xuan Faction. That actually can be arranged!" Chen Xiaobei said, "But why do you always cover up your face whenever you see me? You're obviously trying to avoid me."
"That... That is none of your business! I can cover up my face whenever I want to! Why do I have to explain myself to you?" Liu Xuanxin blurted. Furious, she turned around, leaped on her three-inch-bounded feet and disappeared into the thin air like a snowflake.
"Hehe..."
Qiao'er started to giggle.
"Qiao'er, do you know something I don't?"
Chen Xiaobei turned his gaze toward her.
"I don't know..."
Qiao'er was loyal to a fault, so quickly said, "I have never seen her act like a child! That's why I laughed!"
Chen Xiaobei frowned. But because he could not seem to find any other explanation, he simply nodded and said, "Let's leave this place."
He then brought Sirius, Xiaobai, and Xiao'er back to Bei Xuan Faction.
The group returned safely to Bei Xuan Faction
Because Huo Yuanba and Wu Aofeng had a very similar temperament, they quickly became good friends; and the social butterfly, Wu Aofeng brought Huo Yuanba to meet all the menfolk.
Those who were able to gather around Chen Xiaobei were all heroic men! Men who were congenial like Huo Yuanba - they could all get along easily!
As for Qiao'er, because of her age and her adorable appearance, both Wenyuan and Murong Xiaoyao adored this lass. They even took care of her as their own little sister.
In less than half a day, the Huo siblings felt very much at home in Bei Xuan Faction and had already settled down comfortably.
While the siblings settled down, Chen Xiaobei found himself occupied.
"Today, I managed to extort some Spiritual Stones from that old bastard. But I still don't have enough! I need them for training, to activate the Witch Dragon Blood, Ancestral Sword Divine Rune, Quicksand Gourd, Golden Circlets, White Jade Dragon Box, and others!"
Chen Xiaobei sat in his room, pondering.
"It looks like the only way to acquire more Spiritual Stones is from the upcoming martial arts competition! First place gets 3,000 Spiritual Stones; second place gets 1,500 Spiritual Stones, and third place gets 500 Spiritual Stones! That's 5,000 Spiritual Stones in total! If I could just figure out how to get all of it. Then I wouldn't have to worry about it for a long long time!"
"But I won't be able to do it alone. Tai Yitan, Huo Yuanba, and Wu Aofeng will have to level up in strength!"
Chen Xiaobei then took out his phone and went to the Red Envelope Group to ask Taiyin True Deity about the way to grow more Yin Yang Soul Linking Hexworms.
"Tai Yitan and rest of them could be considered as the prodigies that are below thirty years old! As long as I manage to grow more Yin Yang Soul Linking Hexworm and give them one each - they will be able to borrow Xiaobai's and Sirius's special ability! By that time, those that are in the same age category with them will not be able to defeat them!"
"Maybe... I don't even need to fight in the competition and I will be able to obtain all the rewards from the competition!"
Chen Xiaobei's eyes beamed. He then quickly picked up the phone and ordered Yap Liangchen to buy the medical ingredients to grow Yin Yang Soul Linking Hexworm.
Once he got the medical ingredients, Chen Xiaobei followed the way that Tai Yin True Deity taught him to grow the hexworms. Since this was a higher-tier hexworm, Chen Xiaobei had to spend 100 Spiritual Stones to grow a pair of Yin Yang Soul Linking Hexworms.
Chen Xiaobei did not grow more than three pairs since the Spiritual Stones that he possessed were limited.
Once he was done, Chen Xiaobei jumped on his Somersault Cloud and flew to Zhong State.
......
At Li Family's Mansion in Zhong State.
As the most powerful family in Zhong State, the Li owned three hundred million in assets. In other words, they were actually one of the richest families in China.
Li Yunlin's name was on the Forbes list nearly every year.
Only a few people know that the Li Family was actually under the Blood Descendants! And the leader of Li Family was the mysterious Li Xiang!
The purpose of Chen Xiaobei's trip was very obvious. Since he did not manage to extract any information about the Dark Neutron from Potter, he came just to ask Li Xiang about it. Earlier, Chen Xiaobei had already informed him about it, Li Xiang managed to cancel all his plan and wait for Chen Xiaobei's arrival at a private mansion beside lake and mountains. He would not need to worry about others eavesdropped on them since this was his hand.
"Mr. Chen! You are finally here!"
Outside of Zhuang Mansion, Li Xiang and a young man were standing there and welcomed Chen Xiaobei together.
Of course, while both Li Xiang and the young man looked really youthful, they were the only ones who knew their true age!
"This is?"
Chen Xiaobei eyed the young man.
What they had wanted to discuss was strictly confidential. Chen Xiaobei did not want any outsiders present.
"His name is Li Gang! He's our Li Family's most brilliant genius. Since the age of eight, he had already started to train by my side. I intend to make him my successor. That's why I brought him here to see you!" Li Xiang said reverently, "But of course, if it is inconvenient for Mr. Chen, I will immediately ask him to step down!"
"It's alright! Let's go in and talk!" Chen Xiaobei waved his large hand and the three of them stepped into the Zhuang Mansion.
