This was the third time that Xu Que had come to the Jade Lake. The treatment he received was completely different this time!
At the beginning, he was almost not allowed to enter the gate. When he came back from the ancient battlefield for the second time, he was treated as a distinguished guest.
However, this time, he wasn't a distinguished guest anymore. He was treated as a powerful senior, a reclusive super mighty figure. Even Bai Cailing was more respectful when she talked to him, let alone the other apprentices of the Jade Lake!
Although Xu Que wasn't used to it, he didn't expose his identity or ask them not to treat him this way.
He knew clearly what was going on. However, he enjoyed it very much. It was rare for him to be able to bully others like a fox, so he didn't want to expose the truth. Anyway, life was like this. He was also a winner in life if he could cheat others to eat and drink!
After all, he could cheat others to eat and drink without harming others' interests, which was not something that could be achieved easily!
Of course, those who had offended him would be an exception. Those who had offended him could be ruined, let alone harming others' interests.
After all, he would never be merciful to his enemies!
"Elder Xu, you must be tired after such a long journey. Please have a good rest. If you need anything, just come to me!"
Bai Cailing said to Xu Que with a smile after she had arranged a place to stay in the Jade Lake.
She had decided to stand by Xu Que's side. No matter what the Sage Sect would do in the end, her intuition told her that this old man was not simple. She believed in him. This might be an opportunity for the prosperity of the Jade Lake!
"Hey, don't be so polite! Daughter-in-law, we are a family!" Xu Que said with a smile, waving his hand.
"Yes! We are a family! "Ryu Jingning, who was standing behind him, added suddenly with a faint smile.
Xu Que's blood froze and the corners of his mouth twitched. Why do I feel that this little she-devil is going to play some tricks again?
Bai Cailing was a bit embarrassed. In fact, she didn't think she would become a family with this old man. After all, her impression of Xu Que was still the same as when they were in the Refined Moon Palace. She didn't hate him, nor did she have a good impression of him. She just felt that he was an interesting person.
However, she had underestimated Xu Lao's shamelessness. He had actually added a condition to the IOU, turning the IOU into a marriage contract for no apparent reason. As a result, Yao Chi and Xu Lao had a lot of connections.
Previously, she had explained many times that the marriage certificate was ultimately a misunderstanding.
However, as the person involved, Xu Que would never give up on such a fun thing. Naturally, he continued to play dumb as his father. As a result, Bai Cailing couldn't deny the marriage certificate, nor could she admit it. She was in an awkward situation.
"Actually, your arrival was rather sudden. If there's anything lacking in our hospitality, please forgive us. Please have a good rest. I won't disturb you any longer!" In the end, Bai Cailing chose to leave. She felt like if she continued staying here, the situation would only become more awkward.
This was especially the case since she had previously guessed that Ryu Jingning had a close relationship with Xu Lao. Now, as Xu Lao treated her more cordially, Miss Liu's expression became more and more odd.
Bai Cailing wanted to leave quickly so that she wouldn't get involved in this mess.
However, she couldn't leave. This time, Xu Que had come here out of courtesy, and he had come to greet her while passing by. His true objective was to go to the Divine Farmer Clan to get some Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines.
This was why he wanted to inquire about the Divine Farmer Clan's situation.
"Daughter-in-law, wait for a moment. I have something to ask you," Xu Que obstructed Bai Cailing and spoke with a smile.
Bai Cailing was startled by his smiling expression, and she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. "What … what's the matter?"
"It's over. What if Xu Lao really has some fetish and likes to attack his daughter-in-law? In comparison, I'd rather choose Xu Que!
In an instant, many thoughts emerged in her mind, and her expression became more nervous.
However, when Xu Que saw her expression, Xu Que couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.
"Heh, women!
Even if I, the Act-Tough Saint, became an old man, I'm still handsome, charming, and elegant. Did a single smile manage to make you so nervous? "
"Truth be told, I came here to look for the Divine Farmer Clan and ask for another batch of Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. Do you think that they will give it to me? If they won't, what do you think I should do? "As Xu Que spoke, the smile on his face became more intense.
Bai Cailing became more nervous. She felt like this Xu Lao was becoming more like a strange old man with a special fetish, and she really wanted to beat him to death.
She drew back calmly and forced a smile on her face. She said, "Xu Lao, I don't suggest that you go to the Divine Farmer Clan directly."
"Well? Why? Don't you have confidence in me? " As Xu Que spoke, he raised his arm and tried hard to show off his biceps in front of Bai Cailing.
Bai Cailing didn't bother to take a look at him and replied, "The Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines are important to the Divine Farmer Clan. They gave you 200 vines, and they have already suffered great losses. If you go to them again to ask for more, I'm afraid that you will force them too much, and some troublesome incidents will occur."
She spoke tactfully, but what she really wanted to express was that a cornered dog would do something desperate, and she asked Xu Que not to force the Divine Farmer Clan.
"Uh, look at what you're saying. When have I ever been afraid of trouble? I don't want to hide it from you. I need the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines urgently, and the more, the better. The Divine Farmer Clan must give them to me even if they don't want to. It's their fault for offending me in the past. "Xu Que still wore a smile on his face.
He didn't sympathize with the Divine Farmer Clan because everyone had to pay a price for their arrogance.
In the past, if Xu Que hadn't killed Yi Zhong and Yi Dan, he would have already died. This was the way the world was, and only the strong were respected.
"Elder Xu, you misunderstood me. I know that you need the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines, but … I think we can use another method. We don't need to confront the Divine Farmer Clan head-on, and we can still get more Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines." Bai Cailing hesitated for a moment before she spoke.
Xu Que was taken aback. "What method is it?"
Bai Cailing pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "I … I probably already know the place where the Divine Farmer Clan planted the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines."
"What?" Buttface and Duan Jiude opened their eyes wide and cried out in alarm.
The reason why the Divine Farmer Clan had developed so strongly wasn't just because they possessed all kinds of elixir recipes and alchemy techniques, but also because of the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines. This was why the Divine Farmer Clan had always kept the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines a secret, and no one had ever managed to find the place where they planted them.
But now, Bai Cailing stated that she knew it, and this made Buttface and Duan Jiude excited.
If they could find the place where they planted the Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines, it would be much better than going to the Divine Farmer Clan to plunder them. Moreover, they would surely get more Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines.
