269: Chapter 225_2 269: Chapter 225_2 Unless that Immortal cast out soul again, henceforth these two stone lions would amount to mere decor.
“Yun Duoduo, I’m alright.
Shall I go check if they’re unharmed?”
Jiang Tang sensed that his avatar had finished its task, and the people from the Yun Family had come out; he had just completed his business, too.
Facing Yun Duoduo’s anxious expression, he forgave her.
“Mhm mhm,” Yun Duoduo nodded excitedly, not feeling jealous this time as Jiang Tang went to check on the other nine men and women he had brought with him.
Jiang Tang glanced at the eight women and one man whose souls had been captured by two threads of soul, and in just a brief moment, their sea of consciousness had been slightly damaged.
Jiang Tang thought of the Nourishing Soul Red Flowers in his space, realizing that there was no need for them to consume Nourishing Soul Pills; all they needed was to absorb the spiritual power of the Nourishing Soul Red Flower.
Jiang Tang cast a red glow, emitting a red soul nourishing force among the people.
The nine men and women healing their souls felt only the red nourishing energy being absorbed into their souls, which nourished and swiftly repaired them.
People standing at the doorway and those who had discovered the gathering crowd on the street and rushed here also basked in the red nourishing force.
Those who felt this soul-nourishing force all began to cultivate it, absorbing it frantically, making their spiritual power stronger.
Those who had just undergone a painfully illusory experience remembered how terrifying it had been.
In the red light, they were repairing their spiritual power, and they felt even stronger than before.
As they were being healed, they could hear the outside world and knew Jiang Tang had saved them.
In their hearts, they felt even more grateful, especially the eight women who had silently pledged their hearts to Jiang Tang.
It was the Dugu brothers’ first journey away from home, and they encountered such danger, making them realize that the warnings were true—the Cultivation World was filled with peril, but such dangers could also bring opportunities.
From this harrowing experience, they gained insights, feeling that their spiritual power had been enhanced.
The Family Head of the Spirit Sect Yun Clan and the clan members also benefited from the red radiance.
They cultivated soul power, so they were particularly in need of the Nourishing Soul Red Flower.
Feeling their souls becoming stronger than before, more powerful, their cultivation of soul force also progressed.
Patriarch Yun of the Spirit Sect Yun Clan, as the red light gradually weakened, finally opened his eyes and extended a warm invitation to Jiang Tang:
“Fellow Jiang Tang, truly a distinguished young man, please come inside as a guest.”
“Haha, Patriarch Yun, do not overestimate your junior,” Jiang Tang modestly smiled, but he first went to help up the sitting women, one by one.
Only the Dugu brothers stood up on their own.
The eight women accompanying Jiang Tang, who were also from the Cultivation World, weren’t fragile and in need of assistance; they merely wanted to act coquettishly towards Jiang Tang.
The girls, who had regained their spiritual power, were now bright-eyed and rosy-cheeked, looking so different from just a moment before; it’s unknown whether anyone managed to capture that change with a light shadow.
Seeing Jiang Tang helping these women up with such a delicate expression made Yun Duoduo involuntarily bite her lip, her heart filled with jealousy.
Patriarch Yun led the guests to the main hall for receiving guests and had tea served to them.
Jiang Tang took a sip of the tea from the Yun Family, feeling that it was Spiritual Tea, but of course, it couldn’t compare to the products from his space.
“Fellow Jiang Tang, the reason for inviting you here is to ask for your assistance; we want to buy some Supreme Elixirs from you.
We’ve heard that your Supreme Elixirs, the Vitality Pills and Soul Pills, are incredibly useful.
We hope you can sell them to us at a discount and not at the market’s auction price,” said Patriarch Yun.
Jiang Tang nodded and replied, “Of course, of course.
We can trade goods, or I can sell them to you at a discount.
However, I cannot supply the Supreme Spirit Pills in large quantities.
Even I get tired from making Pills.”
Patriarch Yun had the attitude of a businessman conducting a deal but spoke with considerable politeness:
“Understood.
The Cultivation World has many capable and wealthy individuals; everyone wants these kinds of Supreme Elixirs.
Like other families, our clan also wishes for each member to possess them, that everyone has a share and can become stronger.”
Hearing his words, Jiang Tang nodded and said:
“Constantly making money was useful after all.
I got so much wealth and I’m not afraid to be honest with Patriarch Yun.
Just like I said to the other families, we can be friends.
I want to establish a power, Saint Sect, which requires a lot of wealth to sustain many people.
Of course, we have our business, providing them with the capital to grow stronger.”
“Jiang Tang indeed is young and promising.
At such a young age, you have such grand ambitions, surpassing the capabilities of ordinary elite disciples.
It’s a pity our Yun Family doesn’t have a genius like you.”
Hearing Patriarch Yun’s words, Jiang Tang said self-deprecatingly:
“Your family’s elites, unlike me, don’t come from commoner backgrounds; they naturally don’t need to struggle as hard as I have.”
“A commoner’s offspring has become a genius; with these supreme elixirs, is Jiang Tang still afraid of not having wealth?
With wealth and capital, you can naturally establish power.
Here is the money for the pills and the Spirit Grass we bought.
Don’t find it too little, oh.”
As he spoke, Patriarch Yun took out a storage bag from his person.
Jiang Tang glanced at Patriarch Yun and his storage bag, then took out his own storage bag, which contained pills refined by his avatar.
Jiang Tang hadn’t made pills for several days and felt a twinge of pain not having made them himself, yet it wasn’t as painful as before, perhaps because the wealth had come too easily.
As more and more numbers appeared in his storage space, he felt he had become a rich man, losing the sense of surprise he once had towards money.
A poor man with only a little money cherishes every penny, reluctant to spend it.
Jiang Tang felt like a tycoon who didn’t need to pay for food or essentials, yet still earned money every day—amounts other families might take a month or half a year to earn.
He had put all the profits collected during this period into the space within his body.
Now that he had this physical space, he no longer put anything, especially money, into the Primordial Treasure Lingtian Space.
He feared that one day this space would disappear, becoming someone else’s Golden Finger.
The space within his body was his own; whatever he acquired would always belong to him.
Jiang Tang didn’t even look at the other party’s storage bag, directly putting it into the space within his body.
This carefree attitude made bystanders think Jiang Tang was truly indifferent, a nouveau riche with money to burn.
Patriarch Yun received the storage bag and looked inside with his spiritual power.
Seeing so many supreme elixirs, it was just what he had hoped for.
With so many supreme elixirs, not every member of a family could have them, but the high-level members and elite disciples could each get a share.
The joyful expression that appeared on his face also made the members of the Yun Family smile with delight.
Jiang Tang hadn’t stayed long at Spirit Sect Yun Clan; the two parties exchanged items and chatted for a bit.
After bidding farewell to the family head, Jiang Tang said he had many things to do and it wasn’t convenient to linger too long.
Patriarch Yun, having obtained the supreme elixirs and with the other high-ranking individuals in the hall, had long been eager to send the guest away to distribute the items.
They asked Jiang Tang some questions, understood his past and chances, all of which matched exactly what the rumors said.
As Jiang Tang was about to leave, Yun Duoduo, of course, couldn’t bear to part and said she wanted to follow.
Jiang Tang didn’t refuse Yun Duoduo’s company.
Leaving the grand mansion, they walked on the main street.
It’s possible many people had seen the events that transpired in front of the Yun Clan’s gate.
As Jiang Tang and his companions walked down the street, many bystanders gave him a variety of complex looks.
Some even tried to get close to Jiang Tang, perhaps recognizing Yun Duoduo, they greeted her.
Yun Duoduo, leading Jiang Tang and his companions down the street, didn’t want too many people crowding around or stopping them.
Jiang Tang felt all the stares were like people watching a monkey perform.
He was unaware that many youths looked at him with envy.
They, too, were young, but he was accompanied by so many beautiful women, and had the daughter of the Yun Family, Yun Duoduo, by his side.
Amid countless complex gazes, Jiang Tang walked with a casual and proud demeanor, accustomed to such singular prominence, shimmering like a star.
