Chapter 2407 Pendants Return!

Soft Feather looked at the spirit stones divided between them. Initially, she thought of refusing, as she wasnʼt short on spirit stones. After all, she, Soft Feather, was quite affluent.

But then she pondered the fact that this was the first time she and Senior Song had teamed up to earn spirit stones, and she found the whole experience quite amusing. Thus, she nodded and accepted her share of the spirit stones.

Song Shuhang, who had been ʼpenniless,ʼ felt his mood lift as he acquired a new batch of spirit stones. He carefully distributed them between his Universal Bracelet and Inner World—never putting all his eggs in one basket, nor his money in one place.

In the Inner World, the Inner Assistant quietly observed where Song Shuhang had hidden the spirit stones and noted down the location. If Mister Tyrannical Song ever needed to use the One Hit of Krypton Gold again, she would be ready to dig out these spirit stones and transfer them as a sacrifice to convert them into power.

”Letʼs go, Soft Feather. Letʼs check out some other places,” Song Shuhang suggested while feeling upbeat.

Together with the two Soft Feathers, he resumed his leisurely exploration along the paths of the Spirit River Su Clan.

Half a day later, Song Shuhang and Soft Feather were sitting by a large lake, silently fishing.

”Thank you, Fellow Daoists. Though I wish to thank you personally, I am in a critical phase of my seclusion. Please accept these small spirit stones as a token of my gratitude,” a deep voice of a Daoist emanated from the center of the lake.

Subsequently, a box landed beside Song Shuhang and Soft Feather.

The duo set aside their fishing rods and quietly opened the box. They poured out the spirit stones, counted them, and divided them evenly.

Their efficiency was unmatched!

Throughout the morning, Song Shuhang and Soft Feather had encountered nearly 30 locations where Su Clan members were in seclusion, signaled by their tokens flashing red.

The scenario of the Su Clan fairy in seclusion, with her voice so soft it seemed to melt into water, repeated itself nearly 30 times. Each time, the Su Clan members in seclusion requested Song Shuhang and Soft Feather to stay for varying durations.

The requests ranged from three-minute stays to ten-minute ones.

By the end of their tour, Song Shuhang and Soft Feather had each earned nearly 600 spirit stones of the Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Stages.

Song Shuhang realized for the first time that money could be earned in such a manner.

Though the value of what they received was less than a bottle of Heavenly Dao Eye Drops, the joy of acquiring spirit stones provided an experience that money couldnʼt buy. Well, technically, this joy was purchased with money.

”You two are like bullies from movies who collect protection fees. You stroll around, and then everyone gives you money,” Lady Onion commented.

”Hahaha,” Song Shuhang laughed heartily while handing ten Fifth Stage spirit stones to Lady Onion. ”Here, Lady Onion. This is your salary for last month.”

Lady Onion was shocked. Song Shuhang had actually remembered to pay her salary!

”You donʼt want it?” Song Shuhang asked, curious.

”Yes, yes, I do!” Lady Onion quickly stashed away the spirit stones. It was a day to remember. It was the first time she had received a salary from Song Shuhang. Though its value didnʼt match the pile of green onion sprouts she had gathered.

”Is it about time to contact Senior Su Clanʼs Seven for some food?” Song Shuhang proposed.

”Sounds good,” Soft Feather agreed while picking up the bucket of fish and returning them to the lake.

Meanwhile, Song Shuhang transferred the fish into his Inner World.

Just as he was about to close the Inner World, a voice emerged from within: ”Wait, Profound Sage Tyrannical Song! Let me out first!”

It was the voice of Immortal Fairy White Bones.

Initially, White Bones had intended to follow Song Shuhang with the Black-skinned Soft Feather but found herself locked in the Inner World after the hamster and Black-skinned Soft Feather left.

Left with no alternative, she returned to the living spring to meditate and recover the energy she had expended.

Finally seeing Song Shuhang open the Inner World, she quickly called out to him.

”Eh? Fairy White Bones, youʼre awake,” Song Shuhang said, smiling.

”Please, come out,” he said while opening the Inner World passage.

Considering they were on the Spirit River Su Clanʼs territory, would the sudden appearance of an immortal cause an alarm?

Fairy White Bones rose and swiftly headed towards the exit of the Inner World. Just as she was about to step through, another Inner World exit suddenly appeared before her.

Stepping into the new passage, White Bones vanished from sight.

Simultaneously, Fairy @#%× emerged from the new entrance.

The Inner Worldʼs exit closed again.

”Eh?” The virtuous lamia cocked her head. She sensed someone had just brushed past her.

Song Shuhang was speechless. Could it really be such a coincidence? Just as White Bones was about to exit, the virtuous lamia returned. The two passages had overlapped and sent White Bones to Senior Whiteʼs location.

”Hmm?” The virtuous lamia turned her head, her gaze meeting Song Shuhangʼs expressive eyes through the maskʼs opening.

”Grandpa, Iʼm back~” The virtuous lamia played a line from an unknown movie, then slithered her tail and leaped.

Her long tail spun and transformed into a propeller.

The sound of a diver entering the water — also produced by the virtuous lamia—accompanied her return to Song Shuhangʼs body.

”Welcome back. Did you finish with Senior Whiteʼs tasks?” Song Shuhang asked while addressing his chest.

”Yes,” the virtuous lamia responded as she reached for the Scarlet Heaven Sword at Song Shuhangʼs waist.

”Wait a moment!” the sword pleaded.

Despite its protest, it was captured and swallowed by the virtuous lamia.

The sword felt utterly exhausted and contemplated retirement.

”How far along is Senior Whiteʼs project to create a god?” Soft Feather inquired, curious.

”Weʼll send a message to Senior White later to ask,” Song Shuhang said, smiling.

As he spoke, a new entrance to his Inner World opened.

Song Shuhang was puzzled. Neither he nor the virtuous lamia had opened their Inner Worlds, so why the new entrance?

Could it be Senior White Two arriving?

As he contemplated, two figures appeared in his Inner World.

One was a handsome man with an aura reminiscent of a hermit from ancient poems, ethereal and otherworldly.

The other was a beautiful fairy, also carrying a distinctive hermit-like aura.

They were Song Shuhangʼs ghost spirit and Scholar Drunken Spear!

Fairy Ghost Spirit and Heavenly Sword Scholar had successfully completed their cultivation and returned!
