SPMT : Chapter 91 Leaving Mo City 

This competition caused a lot of young talents from the four major families to fall, which made many people in Mo City sigh. The news of Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jin Feng advancing to the seventh level of Qi Cultivation also caused a great sensation in Mo City.

 

Mo City is just a small city with relatively few talents. Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jin Feng were not originally considered the best among the young people in Mo City, but they unexpectedly rose to prominence, causing discussions everywhere in the streets and alleys.

 

Sun Qi listened to the discussions in the streets and alleys with a black line on his head. “Zheng Xiong(Mister), do you think what they’re saying is true?”

 

“The news has spread everywhere, so it can’t be false,” Zheng Liming said.

 

Many talents from the Zheng family sent out this time only had one survivor. The competition participants were too fierce, and families like the Zheng family sent out talents, and almost the entire family was destroyed.

 

The return of Xiao Lin Feng and Wang Lu gave the Xiao family the momentum to be the number one among the four major families. Now, with the addition of Xiao Jingting and Xiao Jin Feng, the position of the Xiao family is even more stable.

 

Sun Qi shook his head and said, “I never expected Xiao Jingting to come this far.”

 

No matter how you look at it, this seems like a joke. What kind of person was Xiao Jingting? He used to wander around all day, only knowing how to cause trouble and getting happy when people flattered him. But now, this guy has become the number one among the young people in Mo City, a model for the young people in Mo City.

 

Zheng Liming nodded and said, “Yes!” They say that things change unexpectedly, and he has truly experienced it now.

 

“Xiao Muhong is dead, Miss Sun Miao Miao has returned to the Sun family, and Elder Sun is known for his insight. The husbands he chose for his daughters are all outstanding talents, but unfortunately, he made a mistake this time,” Sun Qi said with regret.

 

If Sun Miao Miao had married Xiao Jingting, how splendid would it be now! Unfortunately, Sun Miao Miao married Xiao Muhong, and after a period of glory, everything took a turn for the worse.

 

Zheng Liming frowned. How long has it been? The person he used to flatter openly but disdain secretly has now become someone he can’t compete with. He heard that Xiao Jingting gained many precious elixirs this time. Unfortunately, he didn’t get any benefits. If they were still friends…

 

Zheng Liming shook his head. The elders in the family reminded him several times to get close to Xiao Jingting, but Xiao Jingting now is not so easy to get close to!

Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes.”

 

…..

 

“Why the rush?” Wang Lu asked.

 

“Time waits for no one! After traveling around this time, my son deeply realizes the vastness of the world and wants to go out and experience it,” Xiao Jingting said.

 

Xiao Jingting deeply understood why the higher the cultivation, the more eager one is to venture out. The outside world is vast, and staying at home makes it easy to have a limited perspective. While diligent cultivation is stable, to soar to greater heights, one must venture out and seek opportunities.

 

Xiao Lin Feng looked at Xiao Jingting and sighed, “Alright, do as you wish.”

 

In the wilderness world, strength is respected. When a son’s cultivation surpasses his father’s in a family, the son often becomes more influential than the father. Although Xiao Jingting’s cultivation was still slightly below Xiao Lin Feng’s, it was only one level away. Therefore, Xiao Lin Feng’s attitude towards Xiao Jingting quietly changed.

 

Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Thank you, Father.”

 

Xiao Lin Feng shook his head and said, “There’s nothing to thank between father and son.”

 

A burst of crying reached Xiao Jingting’s ears.

 

“Who’s crying?” Xiao Jingting frowned.

 

“Who else could it be? It’s your aunt! Xiao Muhong is dead, Sun Miaomiao has returned to the Sun family, and your aunt has lost hope, so she’s gone mad,” Wang Lu said.

 

Xiao Jingting took a deep breath. When Xiao Lin Feng and Wang Lu disappeared in the past, Liu Xian was so arrogant. Now, he has fallen to this state.

 

After packing up, Xiao Jingting returned the fields to his father and mother and bid farewell to Xiao Jin Feng before leaving.

 

Outside the city, Mu Shuyu shook his head and said, “Third brother, you’re really decisive. You just decide to leave and go.”

 

Xiao Jin Feng smiled and said, “Third brother, you’re not confined to one place. Sooner or later, you’ll soar to great heights. When you come back, I’m afraid your cultivation will surpass father’s.”

 

Mu Shuyu nodded and said, “I have the same feeling.”

 

… 

 

Xiao Xiaofan sat in the carriage, curiously looking at the scenery outside the carriage. “Father, where are we going?”

 

Xiao Jingting casually replied, “The world is vast. Wherever we go, we’ll consider it.”

 

“Dad, let’s go to the territory of the Azure Peak Academy,” Xiao Xiaofan suggested.

 

Xiao Jingting asked with some curiosity, “Why do you want to go to the territory of the Azure Peak Academy?”

 

“Because Xiao Yuerong, that fat guy, always says how prosperous it is in the territory of the Azure Peak Academy, how many experts there are, and how noble the members of the Azure Peak Academy are. Let’s go take a look,” Xiao Xiaofan complained.

 

Xiao Jingting thought for a moment and said, “Okay!” Since he didn’t have any specific goals at the moment, going anywhere would be the same.

 

To reach the Azure Peak Academy, they had to pass through three towns. Every time they reached a town, Xiao Jingting sold some spiritual herbs grown in the space and then took Xiao Xiaofan to visit a gambling stone site. With Xiao Xiaofan’s magical ability, Xiao Jingting obtained quite a few precious jade stones and even won a few spiritual stones.

 

With money in hand, Xiao Jingting would occasionally buy some precious elixirs. As long as he was willing to spend money, he could still buy elixirs. He was afraid of being targeted, so Xiao Jingting didn’t buy large quantities each time, but it was enough for the whole family to use.

 

With cultivation at the seventh level, Xiao Jingting had no trouble avoiding dangerous places.

 

“Are you alright?” Xiao Jingting asked Xu Mu’an.

 

Xiao Jingting felt somewhat sorry to have Xu Mu’an, a pregnant husband, accompany him on his travels.

 

Xu Mu’an smiled, shook his head, and said, “I’m fine. You really don’t need to worry. Even if I accompany you to fight monsters now, it’s fine.”

 

Xiao Jingting: “…”

 

“It shouldn’t be long before we reach the next town, right?” Xu Mu’an asked.

 

Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes.”

 

“Dad, you’re so silly. We’ve taken many detours,” Xiao Xiaofan said.

 

Xiao Jingting frowned. This unlucky child only knew how to talk nonsense. “What do you know! It’s mainly to let you see different scenery in different towns.”

 

Xiao Xiaofan tilted his head and said, “Is that so?”

 

Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes.”

 

Xiao Xiaofan, thoughtful, said, “Dad, three days ago, you said we would reach the Azure Peak City in three days, and today you said it again. Dad, can’t you count?”

 

Xiao Jingting: “…”

 

“What do you know! When Dad says three days, it’s not really three days, but several days. So when Dad says three days, it’s not three days, but several days, you know?” Xiao Jingting said earnestly.

 

Xiao Xiaofan looked at Xiao Jingting, puffed up his cheeks, and said, “Dad, don’t think I’m stupid and try to fool me!”

 

Xiao Jingting: “…” His youngest son was becoming increasingly difficult to fool.

 

Xiao Jingting took a deep breath and had to reveal his killer move. “Dad has some buns here. Do you want to eat?”

 

Xiao Xiaofan quickly nodded and said, “Yes, yes, yes.”

 

Having received the bun, Xiao Xiaofan retreated into the carriage to munch on it, not saying much. Xiao Jingting couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, while Xu Mu’an looked at Xiao Jingting’s expression and couldn’t help but laugh.

 

Four days later, the group finally arrived at the boundary of Bifeng City.

 

Xiao Xiaofan leaped off the carriage, asking, “Dad, can we go to the stone shop in the city now and buy stones?” Xiao Xiaofan’s biggest interest now was visiting stone shops and buying stones.

 

Shaking his head, Xiao Jingting replied, “Let’s find a place to settle down first, then we’ll go to the stone shop.”

 

“Okay,” Xiao Xiaofan nodded.

 

Xiao Jingting ruffled Xiao Xiaofan’s head. Xiao Xiaofan had already reached the second level of Qi Refinement. When he first arrived, this kid didn’t even know how to cultivate, but now he was at the second level. Xiao Jingting somewhat suspected that his son possessed some sort of special physique that made him highly sensitive to spiritual energy.

 

Getting off the carriage, Xu Mu’an and Xiao Jingting walked toward an inn.

 

“Xu Mu’an,” a voice of surprise called out.

 

Xu Mu’an turned to the source of the voice. It was his childhood neighbor, Zhang Lingyu.

 

Zhang Lingyu was pretty and talented, and the boys in the neighborhood liked to hang around her. For some reason, Zhang Lingyu was always against him, which resulted in Xu Mu’an being isolated since childhood.

 

The departure of Zhang Lingyu from the desert city marked by her marriage to a young master from another town. After she left the desert city, Xu Mu’an had never seen her again.

 

Looking at Xu Mu’an, Zhang Lingyu exclaimed, “Xu Mu’an, you eloped with someone.”

 

Xu Mu’an couldn’t help but feel speechless.

 

Seeing Xu Mu’an’s round belly, Zhang Lingyu exclaimed again, “Xu Mu’an, not only did you elope, but you also have the child of a lover.” There were many people at the entrance of the inn. When they heard Zhang Lingyu’s sharp cry, many of them turned their eyes to Xu Mu’an. Xu Mu’an’s face couldn’t help but show some anger.

 

Xiao Jingting looked at Zhang Lingyu and warned in a displeased tone, “Madam, be careful with your words. Mu’an has always been my wife. Where did you get the idea of elopement?” When Xiao Jingting spoke, he carried a hint of pressure. Zhang Lingyu was forced to take a few steps back.

 

Looking at Xiao Jingting, Zhang Lingyu’s face was full of suspicion. “You, you are the third young master of the Xiao family.”

 

Zhang Lingyu had long known about Xu Mu’an marrying Xiao Jingting, but according to her knowledge, Xiao Jingting didn’t like Xu Mu’an at all and didn’t take her seriously, often going out to have fun.

 

Although Xiao Jingting’s appearance hadn’t changed much, his overall temperament had changed a lot. Zhang Lingyu didn’t recognize him at once and thought that Xu Mu’an couldn’t stand Xiao Jingting and eloped with someone else.

 

Looking at Xu Mu’an, Zhang Lingyu smiled and said, “Mu’an, you scared me. I heard that your relationship with Young Master Xiao isn’t very good. I thought you… did something stupid.”

 

Xu Mu’an kept a straight face and said nothing.
