Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Chapter 1313: Chapter 1313: Encounter

The leading senior brother of the Sword Sect, Qiu Ze Yun, also noticed Tan Shaoting and his family.

The main focus was still Tan Shaoting. Although he wasn’t carrying a sword, it was clear to him that this cultivator must be a Sword Cultivator; his demeanor was distinct.

They brushed past each other. Their cultivation levels were about the same, both at the late-stage Foundation Establishment.

Qiu Ze Yun suddenly turned around, saying, ”Fellow Daoist, please wait a moment.”

Both husband and wife stopped and turned to look at Qiu Ze Yun.

”Fellow Daoist, I am Qiu Ze Yun from the Sword Sect.”

Tan Shaoting clasped his hands, ”I am loose cultivator Tan Shaoting.”

”Mr. Tan, shall we find a chance to have a contest someday?”

Tan Shaoting shook his head, ”Fellow Daoist, let’s wait until you return from the secret realm for that, then I’ll be ready to accompany you at any time.”

Qiu Ze Yun nodded, handing over a Sound Transmission Talisman to Tan Shaoting, ”Let’s keep in touch.”

Tan Shaoting also handed over his own Sound Transmission Talisman, and only then did they each go their separate ways.

Su Yuanyuan also understood that Tan Shaoting might be doing this to support their son, and there was nothing wrong with that. They didn’t need to pay much attention to Qi Yan; having someone to speak on their behalf at crucial times was a good thing.

The family of four continued strolling on the street.

Liu Cheng was accompanying Hu Xueqin, planning to go to the Duobao Pavilion, when they happened to bump into their family.

Seeing them, he knew that Chen Sheng had already failed. His heart was in turmoil; six Foundation Establishment cultivators, while they only had two Foundations.

He had been with Hu Xueqin for a decade, and he knew this woman well.

Since hiring others had failed, this woman was the only option left.

In fact, he was overthinking it. Ever since Hu Xueqin saw Tan Shaoting, her legs had gone weak. This was the man she was searching for.

Liu Cheng could tell from her breathing that this wayward woman was already interested.

This worked out perfectly because he didn’t have to say anything.

Su Yuanyuan and her husband also noticed Liu Cheng, and when looking at the gentle woman, Su Yuanyuan quickly read her thoughts and almost felt nauseated.

She had no opinion on her cultivation methods; that was her business, but the woman’s thoughts were truly disgusting.

She dared to covet Tan Shaoting? She couldn’t see her cultivation level but knew she was a Golden Core Stage cultivator.

Su Yuanyuan sneered inwardly. Was she going to confront a Golden Core Stage cultivator? She wasn’t afraid. After all, she wouldn’t die at her hands. Her biggest trump card was her space; as long as she had it, she wasn’t worried about dealing with that woman.

Upon meeting, Hu Xueqin’s eyes were glued to Tan Shaoting. Seeing the child in his arms who resembled him by forty percent, Hu Xueqin’s heart grew even more passionate.

She shyly smiled at Tan Shaoting, ”Fellow Daoist.”

Tan Shaoting was particularly sensitive. Although Hu Xueqin’s outward impression was of dignified nobility, her gaze revealed she was a woman with impure intentions.

Therefore, he did not return the courtesy, though he knew she was a Golden Core Stage cultivator.

They brushed past each other. Hu Xueqin squinted her eyes.

She knew this man definitely wasn’t a local cultivator from the city and wasn’t in a hurry.

”Liu Cheng.”

”Cousin Miss, this family are loose cultivators. They are quite powerful. My brother died at their hands. I sought Chen Sheng for revenge, and his team also perished at their hands.”

”Oh? You should investigate thoroughly.”

”Yes.”

Chen Sheng finished speaking and turned to leave. He also had his own information network.

Tan Shaoting wanted to make the best defensive vestments for his wife, and he had the means, so why should he let her suffer?

Thus, they entered the Spiritual Clothing Pavilion once more.

Su Yuanyuan was no longer stingy with spirit stones. Knowing there would definitely be a battle with that woman, she had to prepare adequately. Defense had to be optimal.

The Spiritual Clothing Pavilion was very fond of such big customers as their family.

While paying with spirit stones, Hu Xueqin also walked in.

Two shop assistants immediately attended to her warmly. Hu Xueqin smiled as she sat to the side, sipping tea, her eyes fixed on Tan Shaoting and his family.

After paying, the family left.

”Who was that man just now?”

Hu Xueqin’s reputation in Future City was well-known, and the shop assistants, upon hearing her inquiring, felt pity for that man.

”Senior, we don’t know them either. They came here to order vestments.”

”I see!”

Hu Xueqin was now determined to have Tan Shaoting; the closer she drew to him, the more fervently she desired him.

A man in his thirties in the late-stage Foundation Establishment. If he were with her, he could certainly break through to the Golden Core Middle Stage.

She also believed the shop assistants’ words since Liu Cheng said they were loose cultivators and hadn’t been in Future City long.

She randomly selected a few vestments and then followed behind Tan Shaoting and his family.

Watching the scene of the family of four together, Hu Xueqin developed a killing intent towards Su Yuanyuan.

How dare she involve herself with the man she had set her sights on? Truly an eyesore.

Focusing her Divine Sense on them, Su Yuanyuan gradually couldn’t detect it. However, Tan Shaoting knew and was extremely angry, so his Divine Sense transformed into needles and pierced back.

On the street, Hu Xueqin felt an intense headache, knowing it was a Divine Sense injury.

She also understood Divine Sense attacks. But her cultivation had been acquired through exploitation, so her Divine Sense was truly quite weak.

She clutched her head, trying not to display any signs on the street.

Her pale face was devoid of color as she slowly headed for the City Lord Mansion.

Usually accompanied by someone, this time she had sent Liu Cheng to gather information.

This made her suffer. Now she didn’t dare use any Spiritual Power, and her Divine Sense was severely injured.

As she walked, she pulled out an elixir to swallow.

This was a Nourishing God Pill, specifically for treating Divine Sense injuries.

Each Nourishing God Pill cost ten thousand low-grade spirit stones.

After consumption, she only felt slightly relieved. Clearly, the Divine Sense injury was indeed severe this time.

She staggered to the entrance of the City Lord Mansion.

The guards obviously recognized Cousin Miss and dared not stop her, watching her leave shakily. Only then did several people breathe a sigh of relief.

Over time, people in the City Lord Mansion knew her well and stayed far away from her.

Biting her teeth, Hu Xueqin returned to her room, activated an array, and finally held her head and moaned.

Who in the world attacked her with Divine Sense? She hadn’t harmed anyone, right?

Holding her head had no effect anymore. Enduring the pain, she took another pill.

Meanwhile, Tan Shaoting and his family of four continued strolling the street.

Tan Shaoting took the opportunity to teach the two of them some knowledge.

When they returned home, Qi Yan and the other two had already arrived.

The two little ones, upon seeing their sister, happily rushed over.

The family once again secluded themselves, aware that there were more and more cultivators outside. It was best not to provoke unnecessary trouble, especially with that disgusting woman eyeing them.
