Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Qi Hong nodded, ”I want to know about the female immortal Xiaowan.”

”Xiaowan? Dong Xiaowan?”

”Yes.” Qi Hong nodded firmly.

”Master, are you asking about this female immortal?”

The female immortal waved her hand, and an image of Xiaowan appeared in the air.

Qi Hong had seen Dong Xiaowan before and nodded lightly.

”Yes, it’s her.”

”She is the cousin of our Immortal Monarch. She is also the woman the Immortal Monarch likes the most. She is a proper Miss from the Dong Family in Wutong City.”

Su Yuanyuan nodded, knowing even more from what she had just learned, that the Five Stars Immortal Monarch was also at the Dong Family in Wutong City.

Qi Hong took the Elixir Recipe and checked the Immortal Plants.

”Your bitter tea leaves are not good.”

”Master, I really searched for a long time for those bitter tea leaves, but found no information.”

”Bitter tea leaves are the most crucial ingredient. Without them, the formed pill won’t be effective.”

”Master, do you have any bitter tea leaves? I’m willing to buy.”

Qi Hong took out a stalk of bitter tea leaves, ”Five thousand Immortal Crystals.”

The female immortal smiled and handed over the Immortal Crystals.

”Come by tomorrow at this time to collect the elixir.”

After the female immortal gave a salute and left, she was so excited she didn’t know what to say. As long as she had this elixir, she would no longer be under the control of the Five Stars Immortal Monarch.

This was something she had longed for endlessly.

She returned to the City Lord Mansion. ”Where did you go?” she was stopped by a fellow female cultivator sharing the same misfortune.

”I went to ask the master for an elixir.”

”Did he agree?”

Liu Xu shook her head, ”That master is really stubborn. He just wants to know about the Three Laws Temple, but even those in Five Stars City don’t know what’s going on. How can I tell him?”

”Can’t you make something up?”

”Can you fool the master? We might become enemies in the future. Such a person cannot be pleased, nor offended, right? You also want to do Alchemy, don’t you? Why don’t you try making something up?”

That woman turned and left. She wasn’t a fool; how could she deceive such a master?

Liu Xu returned to her courtyard, revealing an excited smile on her face, even if only for a moment, it was a true reflection of her heart. She felt one step closer to freedom, no longer under control.

Because in the Five Stars City under the Immortal Monarch, they still had freedom.

Qi Hong was very fast at Alchemy, and soon the Immortal Pills were ready. He was preparing to give three.

”Mom, in fact, this kind of elixir is a Detoxification Pill.”

Su Yuanyuan nodded, ”I’ve learned quite a bit just now. The female cultivators in the City Lord Mansion are all controlled by the Five Stars Immortal Monarch, and this is the antidote.”

”Hmm. They have a lot of thoughts.”

The Tan Family people arrived. ”There’s no news about the Three Laws Temple, but we do know the whereabouts of that female immortal, so we’re going to Wutong City.”

Xiao Rue was quite excited, ”Grandma, when are we leaving?”

”We can go now. Where’s Xiao Ya?”

”Of course, I’m going with you. That Five Stars Immortal Monarch scoundrel is the reason I had to give up my physical body and reincarnate.”

Having made up their minds, after asking Tian Yan and the others, they all decided to go together.

Xiao Ya hoped the Five Stars Immortal Monarch scoundrel would know a lot by then so her mom would know.

Once the matter with Fourth Brother was settled, they could head to Sunshine City, which was really just a dark nest.

However, they couldn’t leave today, as that female immortal was coming to pick up the elixir tomorrow.

As they were speaking, someone else knocked on the formation outside.

Another female immortal came in; she was also a woman of the Western Immortal Emperor.

”Master, I truly don’t know about the Three Laws Temple matter. They vanished overnight. I think perhaps they moved away; otherwise, it couldn’t have been so quiet.”

Qi Hong nodded, ”Since you don’t know that information, I want news about the Western Immortal Emperor.”

”I’ve only seen the Western Immortal Emperor twice, so I’m not sure what you want to know?”

”Nothing specific. Just tell me what you know.”

This female immortal spoke of her two encounters with the Western Immortal Emperor, ”Oh. Our Immortal Monarch really dislikes the Western Immortal Emperor. I once saw them part on bad terms.”

Su Yuanyuan listened to the inner thoughts of this female cultivator, and everything she said was true. Her purpose was the same as the previous female immortal’s.

She didn’t know as much as the previous one.

Qi Hong looked at her Elixir Recipe and checked the Immortal Plants.

”The bitter tea leaves are not good. Without bitter tea leaves, the Immortal Pills won’t be effective.”

”Master, in the Western Immortal Emperor Realm, bitter tea leaves really aren’t available. They used to be quite common, don’t know why they disappeared.”

Qi Hong took out a stalk of bitter tea leaves, ”Five thousand Immortal Crystals.”

This female lead was also straightforward, directly handing over a Storage Bag.

”Come by tomorrow at this time to pick it up.”

”Thank you, master, thank you.”

Hong Ying felt like she floated out.

The next day Liu Xu came first to collect the elixir. She was extremely grateful to Qi Hong.

”Master, actually, our Immortal Monarch has a problem. Every five years, he hides away, seemingly very weak. And in three months, that five-year period will come again.”

After Liu Xu finished speaking, she turned and left. She absolutely didn’t believe these people were just simply asking about Dong Xiaowan.

Su Yuanyuan knew even more now, that on that day the Five Stars Immortal Monarch would be without immortal power. It really wouldn’t be a problem dealing with him.

Hong Ying also came to collect the elixir, but she gifted Qi Hong a Jade Box. Inside, unexpectedly, was a passion fruit. This fruit was quite precious.

The group left Five Stars City, and on the Flying Boat, Su Yuanyuan shared the news she knew, ”Everyone be careful.”

Xiao Rue entered his father’s room. ”Dad, what if my mom wants to come with us? Can you accept that?”

Qi Xuan smiled, ”I have no objections.”

Xiao Rue was helpless; why was dad so silly?

”Dad, I mean, what if my mom wants to live with you?”

Qi Xuan was taken aback, ”I haven’t thought about it. Xiao Rue, sit down, let me tell you about what happened between your mom and me.”

Xiao Rue listened to his father speak even more clearly, ”I don’t know how to describe it. But at that time, there was no love between us. If your mom were just an ordinary person, I would surely stay with her for the rest of my life.

After she died, that was when your grandmother and I went to the Underworld. You know the rest, right?

Having two people without feelings live together is unrealistic.

Everything should be said after seeing your mom.”

”Understood.” It seems dad doesn’t have feelings for mom.

From Five Stars City to Wutong City, it would take two months, and although someone followed them along the way, they didn’t interfere.

When they arrived at Wutong City, someone stopped them as soon as they entered.

”Master, the City Lord invites you.”

Qi Hong nodded; they wanted to go to the City Lord Mansion anyway, which saved them some trouble.

Wutong City looked even more prosperous than Five Stars City.

They all entered the City Lord Mansion, ”Welcome, Master, pardon for not going out to meet you sooner.”

A scholarly-looking person came out with a smile and clasped his hands.

Qi Hong also clasped his hands, ”Is this the City Lord Senior?”

”Yes, I am Dong Yong, welcome Master.”
