Chapter 1259: Checking All the Red Envelopes
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Elder Jiu was a busy man so he could not chaperone Chen Xiaobei all the way. On top of that, he wanted to get home to his family as soon as possible to give them a detailed account of his association with Chen Xiaobei.
So, the two men parted ways.
After the old man left, Chen Xiaobei boarded Fang Zi’er’s yacht.
Wrath Wave Faction was no longer any of his concern. Now that Hu Bawan was dead, the faction’s minions would scatter like roaches in the sewer.
The core members would have to deal with possible internal conflict in the fight for leadership. From now on, they would no longer be a threat of any kind to Tidal Faction.
Eliminating this menace meant that Lin Xiang could continue to train peacefully without any interference.
Then, Chen Xiaobei could do his work without worry. By the time Lin Xiang reached Celestial Cultivation, Chen Xiaobei would most probably have already established a place for himself in the Northern Wilderness Starfield.
When that time came, they would be together again, living happily ever after.
Chen Xiaobei made himself comfortable on the yacht, rummaging through Fang Zi’er’s wine collection as he helped himself to the most expensive champagne.
As he downed the bottle, he asked, “Why don’t you tell me about Penglai Faction.”
“I thought you knew people from Penglai? How is it that you don’t know about them?” Fang Zi’er asked.
“When I ask you to tell me, you tell me right away and don’t ask questions.” Chen Xiaobei snapped.
“Yes.” Fang Zi’er swallowed. “Penglai Faction is the most powerful ancient faction within a thousand mile radius of these waters. It can be considered the highest top-tier ancient faction on earth!”
“Top-tier? Did you mean pinnacle?” Chen Xiaobei asked.
“No, not pinnacle. A pinnacle ancient faction must have at least one demigod to lead them! Penglai Faction does not have a demigod! Their Faction Leader is at Ethereal Cultivation! They also have an Ethereal Cultivation co-Faction Leader!”
Chen Xiaobei nodded. “What about those core disciples?’
“Ying Shaoua? That guy’s a womanizer. As long as there is an attractive woman, he will show interest no matter which faction she belongs to! He even considered wooing that Ling Chaoying! Thinking about it now, it’s actually kind of disgusting!”
Chen Xiaobei’s forehead creased. “The goddess you talked about must be the kind of woman that looked beyond all the luxuries in this world. How did she get involved with Ying Shaohua?”
Even though Chen Xiaobei was not romantically involved with Liu Xuanxin, he was unhappy to hear that she was entangled with that pervert.
“I’m not very sure. I mean, women are all the same. She must have been attracted to his background! Ying Shaohua is the son of the Penglai Faction Leader. He’s been spoiled with an abundance of resources since young. He’s pretty well endowed himself as well. He has already reached 90,000 combat power at such a young age! A prodigy on these waters! Although it is known that he’s a womanizer, there are still a lot of women out there who would try to get close to him! A goddess is also a woman. So, it’s not surprising that she would do the same!”
Fang Zi’er pouted, his tone sour, as if to say ‘I’m not to bad either… so why didn’t the goddess throw herself at me?’
“No way! She’s not that kind of woman!” Chen Xiaobei said stubbornly.
Even though he did not contact Liu Xuanxin much, he understood what kind of person she was. She would never approach someone just because of their background, much less a playboy at that.
“Ah? Mr. Chen, does that mean that your friend is not someone from Penglai but that goddess?” Fang Zi’er looked surprised.
“Mm, I know her. I know what kind of person she is. Maybe Hu Bawan lied to you, and she’s not in Penglai Faction. Either she’s in some kind of trouble or perhaps she’s trapped there!”
“It’s most probably the latter,” Fang Zi’er said. “My family is only a little less powerful compared to the Penglai Faction. There is no way Hu Bawan would lie to me!”
“If it’s true and Ying Shaoohua is stirring trouble behind the scenes, I will make him pay!”
Fang Zi’er exhaled sharply. “My dear Mr. Chen, please don’t scare me. You want to go to Ying Shaohua’s territory to beat him up? You really are insane!”
“Enough nonsense! Step on the pedal!” Chen Xiaobei said, unsmiling.
“Mr. Chen, can you please not bring me to seek death with you? I haven’t lived long enough!” Fang Zi’er cried desperately.
Penglai Faction was Ying Shaohua’s fortress.
The two Ethereal Cultivation elites aside, the Celestial Cultivation Elders alone were enough of a formidable force.
Going to Penglai Faction to pick a fight was a suicide mission!
“Me? Seek death? Would you like to die in my hands, right now?” Chen Xiaobei said coldly.
“Don’t! Don’t! I’ll go now!” Fang Zi’er trembled and made a run out of the cabin.
“It looks like a fight is inevitable. I better prepare for a battle.” Chen Xiaobei put down his bottle of champagne, the expression on his face sombre.
Even though his strength had changed drastically – increased to the level of top-tier ancient factions, he was still not strong enough to fight Ethereal Cultivation Elites alone. He would need help from external forces.
As soon as he thought of this, Chen Xiaobei opened up the Red Envelopes he received on the night of Duanwu Festival.
“There’s no need to look at the Mengpo Soup. It’s still serves the same function. Next one.”
Ding!
[High-tier Prosperous Monkey Fur: Monkey King inserted his own magical power in it. It allows the user to transform into anything they like! Duration of transformation will be longer this time. Do you wish to withdraw it?]
“Change into anything I like? A normal Prosperous Monkey fur can take on the form of physical things. But with this High-tier Prosperous Monkey Fur, I can change forms! This is like an improvised ‘Seventy-two Metamorphosis’! The ‘Seventy-two Metamorphosis’ can only be used to confuse enemies. Its combat effectiveness is just average. Next one.”
Chen Xiaobei composed himself and continued to browse.
Ding!
[Abyssal Spiritual Crystal: A one-star Heavenly Item Yanwang discovered in the Abyss. It contains a special fusion power, making it an excellent material for crafting a Yin Attributre Divine Item! Do you want to withdraw it?]
“A material for crafting a Divine Item! Wow! Now this is what I’m talking about!” Chen Xiaobei’s eyes lit up. “Spiritual Items are no longer enough for me. If I could cultivate them into a Heavenly Item, it would be a breeze to fight Ethereal Cultivation Elites!”
