Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 513: Buy The Building

”You should stay here, Xianwu.”

Xian Xianwu immediately turned to his parents. ”Why did you stop me? Donʼt tell me that you want to bring my sister closer to that man.”

”Yes.” Xian Fengʼs blatant answer took Xian Xianwu by surprise. ”I do want Xianqin to get closer to Zhang Fei, but I will not force her to have a close relationship with him, and she can make her own decisions in the future. I can see that you have an interest in Zhang Lin, and he doesnʼt like that, so you shouldnʼt follow them.”

Xian Xianwu rubbed his nose and sat back down. ”Father, you are wrong about that; I have no interest in Zhang Lin, and I was only momentarily fascinated by her. Furthermore, I already have Yao Yin in my life, so I have no intention of pursuing other women.”

”Speaking of Yao Yin, I havenʼt seen her in a while; is she still busy in the sect now?”

”Yes, Mother.” Xian Xianwu nodded to Shi Qingzhuang. ”Yao Yin has yet to break through to the quasi-divine realm, and she is disappointed with herself, so she locked herself in her cultivation cave to focus on her breakthrough.”

Shi Qingzhuang nodded in understanding. ”Yao Yinʼs talent is not exceptional, and her cultivation is significantly slower than that of her sisters and brothers, yet her character is much better than theirs. She wholeheartedly loves you, so I hope you wonʼt disappoint her. How about you marry her after she breaks through to the quasi-divine realm?

You guys have been together for decades, and weʼve been wanting grandchildren for a long time, but you two have always delayed your marriage for the sake of your cultivation.”

”Honestly, I wanted to formalize our relationship as soon as possible, but she asked me to wait for her cultivation to break through to the quasi-divine realm first.” Xian Xingwu released a heavy sigh before continuing. ”Unfortunately, she failed to reach that stage for many years, causing delays in our marriage.

However, Iʼm sure that she will break through to that stage soon, so you can start preparing for our wedding then.”

”I will meet Brother Yao and Sister Mu later, and we will arrange your marriage with Yao Yin after she successfully breaks through.” Shi Qingzhuang then turned to her husband. ”Do you think Zhang Fei will bring them to join the sects in our realms?”

Xian Feng shook his head immediately. ”They are dual cultivators, and the only dual cultivation sect is located in the Huangfu Kingdom. He already knows about the dire situation in the Huangfu Kingdom, so I donʼt think he will bring them there. Even so, he can still bring them to other sects, such as our Xian Imperial Sect.

Unfortunately, their cultivation is still below the heaven realm, and they may feel oppressed there. His other option is to allow them to join minor sects, where they can gain experience until their cultivation reaches the heaven realm.”

”Why donʼt we try to invite Zhang Fei to join our sect?” Xian Feng turned to his wife with a raised eyebrow. ”Weʼve seen his soul cultivation before, and his soul power has already reached the half-perfection stage of the soul core. Even though our sonʼs cultivation has reached the quasi-divine realm, his soul power is still at the earthly soul level.

Thatʼs why Iʼm sure that heʼs not only a dual cultivator, but heʼs also a soul cultivator, so joining our sect is a good opportunity for him.”

”Eh?” Xian Xinwu gasped in shock after hearing his motherʼs words. ”Has Zhang Feiʼs soul power really reached the half-perfection stage of the soul core, Mother? Didnʼt he come from the lower realms? How did he cultivate his soul so quickly? Moreover, he is only 20 years old, and his cultivation has just broken through to the Earth Realm, but his soul power is already that high.”

”Thatʼs why we told you two that Zhang Fei is an exceptional cultivator.

Two weeks ago, he faced two lightning tribulations during his breakthrough to the Earth Realm, and his condition was really bad at that time.” Xian Fengʼs answer caused Xian Xianwuʼs eyes to widen and his mouth to gape, especially since he himself knew that lightning tribulations were extremely terrifying, and he had seen cultivators die from them many times.

”At first, we thought that he would die, but he managed to survive, and he was even able to recover in two weeks despite his severe injuries, which means that he had also trained his body as a body cultivator.”

”Even though itʼs faint, I can also feel the sword energy within Zhang Feiʼs body, so itʼs likely that heʼs also learned the sword path.” Shi Qingzhuang added to her husbandʼs words.

Xian Xianwu was completely shocked after hearing that, especially since threading his path on one path of cultivation was already too difficult for him, yet he now heard of someone threading his path on four different paths of cultivation at the same time. ”If Zhang Fei is that skilled, it means he has extraordinary talent, so I agree with my mother if you invite him to join our sect, Father.”

”I will discuss this matter with him first, but I wonʼt force him to join our sect.” Xian Feng then contacted his minister and ordered him to bring enough bronze, silver, and gold coins. Besides, he also asked him to bring the documents of the building, especially since he was sure Zhang Fei would like it.

Meanwhile, Zhang Fei leisurely walked behind Xian Xianqin and Zhang Lin, who seemed to be having a good time talking to each other. After all, both of them were women, and the princess of the Xian kingdom was not a haughty woman despite her high status, so they were able to get closer faster.

Their closeness raised many questions in the minds of those who passed by them, especially since Zhang Lin was still wearing clothes from the Sky Jade Realm, and the materials were not as good as those in the Nine Stars Realm.

The situation in all realms was basically the same, and there were so many people who always looked at others only by their clothes, so they felt that she was not worthy to be close to Xian Xianqin.

Nevertheless, no one dared to comment on their closeness, but they kept glancing at Zhang Lin with disgust and condescension. Likewise when they saw Zhang Fei, but he didnʼt care about their glances one bit, and he enjoyed his time while looking at the goods in every shop they passed.

Zhang Fei abruptly stopped walking when he spotted an item inside a shop, and he sensed a strong water element emanating from it. ”Linʼer, come here.”

The two women immediately stopped walking and approached Zhang Fei, who pointed to a bracelet. Zhang Linʼs eyes lit up when she saw the bracelet with a shape similar to a dragon, but her expression changed after she saw the price because it was too expensive at one hundred million bronze coins, and they didnʼt have that many coins yet.

”That bracelet is a boost and protection artifact, the sea dragon bracelet, and its grade is heaven grade.” Zhang Lin immediately turned to Xian Xianqi. ”According to the story, it is imbued with the power of a sea dragon, which can increase the attack power of water techniques.

Besides, it will automatically generate a water shield if the user is attacked, but it can only withstand attacks from cultivators with maximum cultivation in the heaven realm, so it will be useless against attacks from cultivators with cultivation above that realm.”

Zhang Lin nodded in understanding and looked at the sea dragon bracelet again, but she immediately grabbed Zhang Feiʼs hand and took him away. ”Forget it, brother. The bracelet is nice, but itʼs too expensive, so we better focus on opening our restaurant first.”

Zhang Fei didnʼt say anything to answer his little sister, but he directly spoke to Xian Xianqi through telepathy. ʼPrincess, please help me book the bracelet so I can buy it after I talk to your parents again.ʼ

After hearing that, Xian Xianqi immediately entered the shop and talked to the owner about the sea dragon bracelet, and after that, she then led them to the building owned by her father.

Soon, they reached the building, but Zhang Fei was taken aback by its strategic road location and its spacious two-story design. Moreover, it still had a garden at the back, so he thought that one hundred thousand gold coins was simply too cheap. ”Princess, is this building really only worth one hundred thousand gold coins?”

”My father decides the prices of the buildings in this kingdom, and he has already given you that price, so you donʼt need to refuse him.” Xian Xianqi then asked. ”Are you interested in this building? If you are interested in buying it, then we can go back to my father now, so he can order people to prepare the documents.”

Zhang Fei didnʼt want to owe a favor to Xian Feng, but he decided to accept it. ”Yes, I will buy this building, and I will open my restaurant in a few days.”

”Letʼs go back then.” Xian Xianqi immediately led them away.

However, Zhang Lin immediately pulled Zhang Fei to her side and whispered to him. ʼAre you interested in Princess Xianqi, Big Brother? She doesnʼt seem to like you, and her dislike of you is probably because you are a dual cultivator.ʼ

Zhang Fei smiled faintly as he looked at Xian Xianqiʼs back. ʼSheʼs quite pretty and attractive, but I havenʼt thought about approaching her yet. For now, I just want to start our restaurant in this kingdom as soon as possible, especially since there are so many valuable items here, so I want to buy them to increase our cultivation faster.ʼ

ʼHehe.ʼ Zhang Lin giggled and whispered again. ʼIf you use your demon charm or demon pheromone on him, Iʼm sure Princess Xianqi will fall for you right away.ʼ

After they returned to the Tianzhu building, Zhang Fei immediately agreed to the price given by Xian Feng earlier and paid it with one hundred thousand blue jewels. In addition, he also exchanged ten thousand red jewels, a thousand green jewels, and five hundred blue jewels for coins.

Zhang Fei could exchange more than that, but he still needed jewels to purchase items in the shop system, and he didnʼt want to draw too much attention to himself.

After everything was settled, Xian Feng immediately asked Zhang Fei. ”Do you guys have plans to join sects?”

”I intend to join a sect in this realm, but the Moonlight Pavilion is located in the Huangfu Kingdom, so Iʼm still thinking about whether I will join there or not.” Zhang Fei then turned to Zhang Lin for a moment before continuing. ”As for Linʼer and the others, their cultivation is insufficient to join the major sects, as the minimum requirement is the Heaven Realm.

Therefore, I will let them stay in our residence and train in the nearby forest.”

”Did you also study the soul cultivation path, the body cultivation path, and the sword cultivation path?”

Xian Xiaqin immediately turned to Zhang Fei in shock, especially since she was previously with him and Zhang Lin, so she had just found out about this matter.

Zhang Fei was not surprised when Shi Qingzhuang inquired about his status as a soul and body cultivator, but he was taken aback by her inquiry about his status as a sword cultivator. ”Empress, I did study the three paths of cultivation, but I didnʼt focus on the sword cultivation path, and I learned it from some of my wives who were sword cultivators.”

”I see.” Shi Qingzhuang nodded in understanding before turning to her husband.

Xian Feng immediately stood up and moved away from the table. ”Zhang Fei, I am curious about your raw strength, so I hope you are willing to show it to me, and you can attack me with all your strength.”

”All right.” Zhang Fei immediately stood in front of Xian Feng and channeled all his strength into his right fist. ”Get ready, Emperor.”

”Attack me on the stomach now.”

*Bam*

Zhang Feiʼs single punch instantly pushed Xian Feng back several steps, and his expression showed some pain.

Unlike their parents, who had more or less expected the power of Zhang Feiʼs attack, Xian Xianqi and Xian Xianwu looked at him in amazement and shock at the same time.

Although he did not use anything to protect him, Xian Feng was still a cultivator with cultivation in the seven divine realms, and Zhang Feiʼs cultivation was only in the earth realm, so the difference between them was like heaven and earth, yet his punch still forced him back several steps. ”Damn! Your punch is truly strong and hard!

According to my calculations, the power of your attack is already equivalent to a cultivator at the cultivation level of the sovereign realm or even the saint realm. If you punch a cultivator who is at your level or below you, Iʼm sure they will immediately die on the spot.”

ʼMy attack power multiplied quite a lot after both of my body techniques broke through to the next stage.ʼ Zhang Fei inwardly muttered before replying to Xian Feng. ”To be honest, I myself am not sure about the strength of my attack, Emperor. However, I have a master in the body cultivation path, and she repeatedly beats me mercilessly with all her strength.

She even uses her lightning element whenever she beats me, and her attacks always cause me pain.”

”Lightning? Does that mean youʼre studying a body technique related to lightning?” Zhang Fei nodded at Xian Feng, which made him realize something. ”Donʼt tell me that your other reason for coming to this realm is to train in the Cyanwood Mountain, especially since the lightning element there is the strongest among the realms Iʼve been to before.”

”You are right, Emperor. My master told me about the Cyanwood Mountain, and she asked me to practice my body cultivation technique there.” Zhang Feiʼs answer shocked them once again, and they thought that his master was truly insane by asking him to train on that mountain.

”I will not be going there anytime soon because my current body strength will not be able to withstand the lightning attacks strengthened by the lightning law, and I will die into ashes if I get hit by one attack.”

Xian Feng took a deep breath after hearing that, and he immediately patted Zhang Feiʼs shoulder. ”Thatʼs good! We cultivate to become strong in order to protect those closest to us, but we must know when to retreat and when to advance, and we must always be aware of our limits.

The current you is much stronger than other cultivators at your level, but the lightning in the Cyanwood Mountain is on a different level. If you want to go there to train, I suggest you wait until your cultivation breaks through to the heaven realm first. Anyway, whatʼs your masterʼs name? I donʼt understand her mindset, and she was truly reckless by asking you to train on that mountain.”

”Thank you for your advice, Emperor. However, my master forbade me from revealing her identity to anyone, but she came from one of the planets of these middle realms.”

Xian Feng was disappointed by Zhang Feiʼs response, but instead of probing further, he asked another question. ”Are you interested in joining our Xian Imperial Sect? Our sect is not a dual cultivation sect, but our sect is more general, and you can learn many things there, including soul and body cultivation paths.”

Zhang Fei fell into deep thought after hearing Xian Fengʼs offer, but he was much more interested in joining the dual cultivation sect, especially since he needed more Yin Qi after his cultivation broke through to the Earth Realm. Additionally, he also needed female and beast essences for his two other forms, but he couldnʼt possibly use his demon or beast forms in the Xian Imperial Sect.

”Let me think about your offer first, Emperor.”

”All right, you can think about it first, and you can contact me directly if you decide to join our sect.” Xian Feng then gave a plaque to Zhang Fei, which was the plaque of his sect.
