"Mid-Grade Magical Artifact?!"
"Ten High-Grade Spirit Stones?!"
Jin Liuxiang was stunned.
She looked at the Jade Hairpin on the table, emitting a faint glow, her heart filled with excitement.
And ten High-Grade Spirit Stones, that's equivalent to a hundred Mid-Grade Spirit Stones!
Jin Liuxiang's charming face was flushed with joy, unable to contain her happiness, she hugged Xu Xiao's head and kissed him fiercely.
After a long while, the two parted with deep affection.
Jin Liuxiang tidied up their clothes and quickly stored everything from the table into her Storage Pouch.
"Elder Xu, thank you so much!"
"I'll come by every few days from now on, just to serve Elder Xu!"
Jin Liuxiang was overjoyed.
Moreover, she felt even more disdain for her master, Zhou Xiao.
After becoming his disciple, all he gave her was a Low-Grade Sword Artifact.
But Elder Xu, how generous and magnanimous he is!
Xu Xiao chuckled, "It's nothing, really. I said before, Jin, we are fated. Even if you don't serve this old man, I would still give you gifts."
She had given her youthful body to his aged self, so naturally, he couldn't treat her poorly.
As he had said before, it was a win-win!
[Congratutions to the host for successfully gifting the Mid-Grade Magical Artifact Jade Hairpin, triggering a thousandfold critical hit, returning the Supreme-Grade Magical Artifact Four Seas Peace Pendant.]
[Four Seas Peace Pendant: A Supreme-Grade Magical Artifact, upon use, releases corrosive weak water from the four seas, both offensive and defensive.]
[Congratutions to the host for successfully gifting a Low-Grade Ring Artifact, returning 2 Mid-Grade Ring Artifacts.]
[Congratutions to the host for successfully gifting 10 High-Grade Spirit Stones, returning 200 High-Grade Spirit Stones.]
The returns were successful, and a thousandfold critical hit was triggered, Xu Xiao nodded in satisfaction.
After Jin Liuxiang expressed her gratitude once more, she respectfully left the room.
Xu Xiao sat on the meditation cushion, reminiscing about st night's passion, feeling a bit sentimental.
"At this age... I didn't expect to feel so alive doing such things."
"Jin Liuxiang, she's quite bold, haha."
No longer dwelling on it, Xu Xiao began organizing his Spatial Storage.
After this round of returns, the contents of his Spatial Storage had multiplied many times over.
He had the Southern Radiance Fme-Severing Sword as a Magical Treasure.
Supreme-Grade Magical Artifacts included the Nine Heavens Divine Phoenix Hairpin and the Four Seas Peace Pendant.
Supreme-Grade Pills included the Supreme-Grade Beauty Retention Pill.
He had 240 High-Grade Spirit Stones, 172 Foundation Establishment Pills, 16 Low-Grade Magical Artifacts, 3 Mid-Grade Ring Artifacts, and 1 Mid-Grade Sword Artifact.
These resources were enough to establish a small sect!
The Ten-Thousandfold Return System, it's so damn satisfying.
In a good mood, Xu Xiao sat on the meditation cushion, operating the Misty Longevity Technique, and began his joyful cultivation.
......
Jin Liuxiang's charming face remained flushed for a long time.
Not only because she had just acquired a rge amount of cultivation resources.
But also because her first experience with a man left her with lingering feelings from a night of passion.
"Elder Xu... surely has many more good things."
"In the future, I must maintain a good retionship with Elder Xu, and in his final days, py the role of... a lover well!"
A Dao Companion was out of the question.
Elder Xu was highly respected within the sect, and if their affair were to be exposed, it would be bad for both parties.
It had to be kept secret.
She certainly wouldn't speak carelessly, and Elder Xu, even less so.
Jin Liuxiang was very pleased, now she no longer needed to look at her ugly master's face.
Zhou Xiao... an ugly middle-aged man.
Even the now elderly Elder Xu was a hundred times more handsome than him!
Moreover, Elder Xu was very kind... you could tell at a gnce he was a good person.
Engaging in a transaction with her was just because Elder Xu was old, lonely, and isoted.
In terms of character, wealth, status, and generosity, Elder Xu far surpassed that ugly Zhou Xiao!
Having shared intimacy, Jin Liuxiang now found Xu Xiao very pleasing to the eye, and compared to Zhou Xiao, the tter was reduced to nothing.
"Elder Xu is really quite nice!"
Jin Liuxiang was delighted, having given her body to such a person, she didn't regret it at all.
At the entrance to the Mountain Path.
"Sister! Sister! Jin Liuxiang has come out!"
Pancake Face tugged at Squash Face, and several female cultivators immediately perked up.
They had been hiding nearby all night, just to confirm this.
Finally... Jin Liuxiang emerged...
When they saw Jin Liuxiang's face at that moment, they were all thunderstruck.
Although Jin Liuxiang was still beautiful.
Her makeup was slightly smudged.
Her eyeliner was a bit blurred, and her lipstick varied in intensity.
Her fair face bore some inexplicable white marks.
Boom!
Squash Face and the other female cultivators were dumbfounded.
They were not inexperienced girls; the oldest was nearly forty.
Seeing Jin Liuxiang like this, they knew for sure she had been with some man st night.
But... she had been in Elder Xu's courtyard all night!
Watching Jin Liuxiang sneak away quickly, afraid of being noticed, only confirmed their suspicions.
Jin Liuxiang had indeed seduced Elder Xu!!
Ah!!!
Elder Xu, you can't be swayed by this vixen!!!
The women colpsed in the woods, unable to accept the reality they had witnessed today...
Back in her room in the Living Quarters, Jin Liuxiang shut the door and began her secluded cultivation.
Ten Foundation Establishment Pills would st her a long time.
When they ran out, she pnned to ask Elder Xu for more.
Now that they were lovers, these resources were rightfully hers.
And to the wealthy Elder Xu, these things were just trivial.
Joyful!
By afternoon.
The entire Outer Mountain was abuzz.
Rumors about Elder Xu spread wider and wider, and now, nearly every Outer Sect Disciple was discussing it.
Outer Sect Mountain Square.
"Impossible! I don't believe it!! I refuse to believe Elder Xu is such a person!"
"I don't believe it either! Elder Xu is highly respected, noble, and such a kind elder, you say he's involved with an Outer Sect Disciple? I'd never believe it!!"
"Fellow disciples... it's not about believing or not... someone saw Jin Liuxiang coming out of Elder Xu's courtyard... she stayed the whole night..."
"Think about it, Elder Xu has only given gifts to two people, one is Lin Yan'er, and the other is Jin Liuxiang, both are beauties of our Outer Sect."
"Before Lin Yan'er received three Low-Grade Magical Artifacts, she stayed in Elder Xu's courtyard for a whole morning..."
"And Jin Liuxiang was even more outrageous, staying the entire night... I didn't believe it at first, but now, I hear Jin Liuxiang has already gone into seclusion... she must have gained a lot from Elder Xu."
"But that doesn't prove Elder Xu has any improper retions with them!"
"Junior brother, face reality... Elder Xu is good, but he's also a man... now that he's old, he's only lonelier... we need to understand Elder Xu."
"Now, it's possible Lin Yan'er and Jin Liuxiang both have unclear retions with Elder Xu..."
"No!!!"
"I can't accept it!! Elder Xu... please come out and say something!!"
"Elder Xu! Tell me! This isn't true!!"
The disciples beat their chests in anguish.
They couldn't accept such a reality.
They hoped Elder Xu was a perfect sect elder, protecting them as they grew...
But no matter how they felt, the rumors about Xu Xiao had spread completely this time.
Even reaching the back hall of the grand hall where the Outer Sect Elders resided.
In the resplendent back hall, Lu Danian, wearing an Eight Trigrams Dao Robe, sat to the side.
His honest face shifted from awkwardness to a sly smile, then to nervousness, and finally to relief.
"Uncle Master... if you had these thoughts, you could have just told your disciple, why go to such expense... it's such a waste..."
