She became a god

Chapter 267 The Turmoil at the Xie Mansion (4)

After writing his name on the divorce papers and the severance papers, Xie Jichen was still bewildered.

It wasn't that he didn't want to cause trouble anymore, but that he didn't dare to gamble with Jiang Xiaobai's life and Xie Shunjing's happiness.

Looking at his wife and son, who regarded him as an enemy, Xie Jichen felt a moment of regret.

If I were willing to live like an ordinary man, obeying my mother at home, my wife after marriage, and my son after my wife's death, perhaps I would have lived a simple and happy life long ago.

But this feeling of regret quickly dissipated; Xie Jichen was willing to charge forward for love.

How could these powerful women, whose hearts and minds are only focused on power and status, understand the loyalty and devotion of men to love?

Only Xiaobai, only she, understood her own confusion and infatuation.

Xie Jiyue claimed that it was inconvenient to move during the rainy season, and asked Tan Min and her son to move to the North Courtyard first.

The North Courtyard was the residence of Xie Jiyue's family. Since Xie Jiyue had not yet taken a husband and the old city lord was traveling around, there were not many proper masters in the North Courtyard.

For Tan Yunyuan, who was suffering from a rare poison, it was a quiet place to recuperate.

All the demons present had no objection to this arrangement.

At least on the surface, Xie Jichen dared not refute his sixth sister's words again.

After settling Tan Min and her son in, Xie Jiyue said affectionately, "Min-mei, my brother is short-sighted, so don't get angry with him. I will tell the Tan family the truth and will not show any favoritism."

Although a legal document was signed, the blood ties cannot be severed. My aunt had foreseen this before her death, and thus left a portion of her assets to her future grandchildren, entrusting me with their safekeeping.

Xie Jiyue handed a storage ring to Tan Yunyuan. Tan Yunyuan accepted it only after seeing Tan Min's smiling eyes.

“I have never looked at this storage ring over the years. However, my aunt is your great-grandmother’s youngest son, and she is very favored and has a lot of savings. The assets she left for you should be quite a lot, so you don’t need to worry about the cost of medicine.”

Tan Yunyuan was in no hurry to perform the blood oath ceremony. Instead, she solemnly bowed to Xie Jiyue and said, "Thank you, Sixth Aunt."

Xie Jiyue laughed and said, "That's right. No matter what your biological father thinks, the rest of the Xie family are your relatives. We will never stand by and watch you die."

I know you're feeling uncomfortable. Whether you want to stay in the North Courtyard or return to the Tan family with your mother, I respect your choice, as long as you still consider the Xie family as normal relatives.

As the city lord of Huicheng, one of the ten famous cities in the Six Realms, Xie Jiyue's status was naturally extremely noble. Yet, she was willing to consider the needs of herself and her son in this way, which naturally moved Tan Min and Tan Yunyuan to tears.

Xie Jiyue waved her sleeve and said, "Wait until I bring you good news."

After Tan Yunyuan suffered another attack of poison, Xie Jiyue fed her a pill that melted in her mouth. After taking it, she felt completely refreshed, her chronic illness disappeared, and even her original late-stage Qi Refining cultivation seemed to be on the verge of breaking through to the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining stage.

Tan Yunyuan knew perfectly well that it must have been her sixth aunt who had obtained the Nine-Flower Elixir for her.

Just as she was in a daze, she heard a strange woman's voice, "Close your eyes and concentrate on your dantian and sea of ​​consciousness."

Tan Yunyuan subconsciously followed the woman's instructions, only to be startled to find that the spiritual energy in her dantian was surging wildly and her sea of ​​consciousness was shrouded in mist.

Having been raised in the streets and all, Tan Yunyuan had never learned any proper cultivation methods. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but feel flustered.

The woman who had just warned Tan Yunyuan laughed and said, "Lord Xie, did you foresee this? Were you planning to scheme against me during the transaction?"

Tan Yunyuan was wondering what the woman meant by "deal" and "scheming".

Suddenly, a pill was injected into Tan Yunyuan's body, and the chaotic spiritual energy spontaneously calmed down, even her sea of ​​consciousness became much clearer.

"Since I'm going to do this good deed to the end, I'll lend your nephew a hand. If she still can't break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, you'd better teach her business."

Upon hearing this, Tan Yunyuan dared not be distracted any longer. She knew that in the world of cultivation, only one's own strength was the most important thing, and business was the most peripheral industry of the family.

Tan Yunyuan was quite capable; she broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage after a quarter of an hour.

"What a pity. If she had been detoxified sooner, with the medicinal properties of the Nine-Flower Pill and the Lesser Purity Pill, she could have broken through to the late Foundation Establishment stage."

Xiao Qing Dan is a popular fifth-grade elixir known for its effects of calming the mind, reducing desires, strengthening the body's foundation, and nourishing the vital energy.

Xie Jiyue's smile became more sincere. "Fellow Daoist Ye is willing to part with the Nine-Flower Pill and also give the Lesser Purity Pill to my nephew. He is indeed as kind-hearted as the rumors say."

Rumor?

Ye Qingzhou was all too aware of his public image, which was nothing more than being a glutton, a playful person, a miser, and incredibly lucky.

Xie Jiyue actually went so far as to fabricate even polite phrases like "kind-hearted" just so she wouldn't have to ask her for the money for Xiao Qing Dan.

Although Ye Qingzhou was indeed a little panda who embodied countless excellent virtues and noble character, she did not believe that a complete stranger could see her merits at a glance.

After all, there are many blind people in this world.

Isn't the father of this poor little junior a perfect example?

She doesn't love her son, but instead dotes on a boy.

I can’t figure it out!

"Yuan'er, quickly greet your Senior Ye."

Ye Qingzhou accepted Tan Yunyuan's greeting with a clear conscience.

In terms of cultivation, my realm is higher than hers.

In terms of social status, I'm on the same level as her aunt.

"Get up quickly, Nephew Tan."

After standing up, Tan Yunyuan stood next to Xie Jiyue and listened to their conversation silently.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the conversation unexpectedly turned to Tan Yunyuan.

“Niece Tan’s water spiritual root is quite pure, but I observe that her spiritual energy is not pure enough, which suggests that her cultivation method is incorrect.”

“My nephew has a hard life. He was switched at birth when he was a child. After he was found, we were busy with detoxification and he didn’t have time to learn proper magic.”

Ye Qingzhou said with a smile, "I happened to obtain the 'Canghai Jue', which is quite suitable for Nephew Tan."

The "Canghai Jue" is one of the sixty-four minor techniques in the Heaven-level cultivation technique "Wuxiang Shenjue," and it is most suitable for cultivators with water-elemental roots.

Upon hearing this, even Xie Jiyue couldn't help but be tempted, let alone the young and naive Tan Yunyuan.

Tan Yunyuan couldn't hide her joy and excitement at all, but Xie Jiyue remained rational. "I can't accept a reward without merit. I wonder what Fellow Daoist Ye wants? If I can do it, that would be wonderful. If I can't, it just means that my nephew's affinity with the 'Canghai Jue' is not deep enough."

Ye Qingzhou shook the bamboo fan in his hand, "Lord Xie, you've guessed wrong this time. I'm not here to ask you for a favor, but to see your nephew."

Tan Yunyuan pointed to herself in surprise, "What does Senior Ye want with me?"

"I, this demon, have no other hobbies but to satisfy my appetite, but the Nine Provinces and Four Seas are too vast. I need my subordinates to help me collect delicacies from all over the world. Would you be willing to serve me?"

The temptation was too great. Tan Yunyuan asked in a trembling voice, "Is it just to help you collect food?"

Ye Qingzhou nodded. "Yes."

Xie Jiyue assumed that the other party was trying to curry favor with the Xie family, since they had ultimately asked for the map and raised the price of the medicine to 150,000 high-grade spirit stones, so she signaled Tan Yunyuan to quickly agree.

But how could the delicacies Ye Qingzhou was looking for be just ordinary food?
