Chapter 548: Chapter 546 Good Friends
Welly looked towards the counter where Sally had left bundles of seedlings, “Okay.”
Before long, the seedlings sold out again.
Welly closed the shop and went to the Su’s Tavern across the street.
Zulu was bustling around busily. Seeing him, he smiled and said, “These past few days, my customers have more than once asked if your bookstore is run by me. They’ve also been asking to buy Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures’ seedlings.”
“It was Sally’s bad idea, taking off with the kids. How am I supposed to sell books in my store now?” Welly tied an apron around himself, automatically starting to help Zulu.
Zulu didn’t stand on ceremony with him.
“It depends on what you want. If it’s purely the scent of books and ink, then just cancel the promotional activity and for sure you will have your peace but if you want to make Immortal Crystals like me, then sell the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures’ seedlings. These things are all the rage now, and high-quality ones are really hard to come by. Plus, with Yanyan backing you, you won’t worry about supply issues.”
“What if I sell both?”
“You get to keep your peace, make Immortal Crystals and also do business with Yanyan.”
“Then I’ll just do as you said.”
“Mm, if you’re hungry, just come here to eat, killing four birds with one stone.”
“Okay.”
Sally, together with the children, was picking seedlings at Jiushen Mountain. Little Miqi was responsible for doubling the number of these little seedlings…
Suddenly, Sally felt a disturbance in the defensive formation of Jiushen Mountain, but it quickly disappeared.
Xiaoshi shouted from the sky towards Sally, “Mom — a big bird hit the defensive formation.”
“Is that so?” Sally looked up.
Just then, a Rainbow Feather Spirit Swallow flew away unsteadily, so she didn’t bother about it.
After passing through the defensive formation of Jiushen Mountain, Little Green Snake swayed its little tail, happily roaming around.
Suddenly, a golden-furred Mouse Beast appeared in front of it, cocking its head and looking at it, “You’re the one who sneaked into Jiushen Mountain just now, right?”
Little Green Snake: “…”
Little Shiyi continued, “If you don’t admit it, I’m going to tell Mom and see if she doesn’t kick you out.”
Little Green Snake spit out a string of Sky Star Fruit, golden and juicy in color, emitting an alluring fragrance, truly a divine-grade gift!
Little Shiyi’s eyes widened instantly, staring unblinkingly at the string of Divine Fruit.
“For me?”
“Yes,” Little Green Snake replied, “as long as you let me stay here and play for a few days. Don’t worry, I won’t do any harm, not even to a flower or a piece of stone.”
Little Shiyi thought for a moment and stretched out a little paw, “Then let’s make friends. My name is Little Shiyi, and you?”
“Just call me Xiao Qingqing.”
“Xiao Qingqing? That name suits your color well. As friends, I’ll also give you a gift.” Little Shiyi took out a Chaos Fruit from his Little Storage Bag, “Here, this is for you.”
Little Green Snake looked at the Chaos Fruit and swayed its tail slightly, “This fruit is better suited for you. Do you have anything like lollipops?”
“I do have lollipops, lots of them,” Little Shiyi took out a big handful of lollipops from his Little Storage Bag.
Little Green Snake was instantly thrilled; it had seen from afar how Sally was giving these little cubs candy and had been very curious.
Little Shiyi helped it unwrap one, “Xiao Qingqing, this one is strawberry flavored, see if you like it.”
“Thank you, Little Shiyi.” Little Green Snake, having never eaten a lollipop before, tasted it… and immediately its green vertical pupils turned colorful, with various lights flashing across swiftly.
The tip of its tail was very jolly, “So tasty! Are these all for me?”
“Sure, I also have tastier ice cream. Want to try some?” Little Shiyi then took out a box of green apple flavored ice cream, “This is my favorite flavor.” 𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Little Green Snake’s little tail patted the ground energetically, “I like it, I like this too.”
Sally was calling the children to eat when Little Shiyi came back holding a small box.
“What’s that?” Xiaoqi’s eyes suddenly shone brightly.
Little Shiyi happily replied, “I made a new friend, named Xiao Qingqing.”
Sally was curious, “Xiao Qingqing?”
Little Shiyi opened the box and took out a greenish little green snake.
Sally, not having much discernment towards snakes, particularly young ones that all looked similar to her, said, “You like snakes, huh.”
The little green snake, noticing Sally had not recognized it, gave her an extra couple of glances.
Sally still didn’t think much of it.
Not to mention the Azure Dragon Mountain Range, Jiushen Mountain also had many spirit snakes—red, yellow, green, white, multicolored…
Moreover, no matter how hard she racked her brain, she couldn’t imagine that the little green snake she encountered in the Azure Dragon Clan would follow her here.
Little Shiyi nodded, “Yes, mom, I like Xiao Qingqing.”
Sally looked at the little green snake, “Is it poisonous?”
“It’s not poisonous.” Little Shiyi replied.
“All right, if one day you don’t want to keep it, make sure you release it properly, okay?” Sally patted Little Shiyi.
Xiaoqi raised its paws, “Mom, I want a Xiao Qingqing too.”
Sally: “…”
Xiaoshi also shouted, “I like Xiao Qingqing too.”
Little Miqi shook her head, “I don’t like Xiao Qingqing, I want a Little Huahua.”
“…Haha~” Sally burst out laughing, then took out a dozen spirit pet eggs from the System Space.
“Eat your meal well, and after eating, you can each choose a spirit pet egg. If you don’t like what hatches, release it in Jiushen Mountain, okay?”
“Okay.” All the children responded in unison.
Xiaoqi still stared nonstop at Xiao Qingqing, “Xiao Qingqing is really cute.”
The little green snake looked back at Xiaoqi, wagging its little tail.
A Sound Transmission Talisman fell from the sky, heading toward Sally.
Sally reminded them to eat well and then walked away with the Sound Transmission Talisman.
You Hao’s voice emerged from the talisman, “Yanyan, Yangyang and Xiaoxiao haven’t hatched yet. How is Little Beibei? How much has she grown? Recently, Sly Fox took three Little Sky Foxes along with Little Shiqi and Little Shier; the five kids roamed all over the Divine Realm, receiving gifts everywhere they went, amassing quite a fortune…”
Listenting to You Hao’s voice, Sally lay down on a grassy patch, looking up at the blue sky and white clouds, almost visualizing Qing Linghuan’s huge fox body, wandering about with five small young ones on his back.
…
Outside the defensive formation—
On a small hill not far away, a dragon with red scales tinged black, eyes showing a brutal and icy expression, stared intently at Jiushen Mountain.
Suddenly, it transformed into a human form—it was Lan Shi, who was wanted across the Immortal Realm.
He had wanted to find a remote corner to hide away and cultivate, but he just couldn’t swallow the resentment of being mocked, schemed against, and humiliated.
With his strength, killing Zi Qi and his close associates wouldn’t be a problem at all.
But simply killing them wouldn’t satisfy his desire to make them suffer to the extreme!
And this female, she must be Zi Qi’s biggest weakness.
She was very fertile, so let her bear him a bunch of children first. Then he would turn her other children, one by one, into puppets, neither alive nor dead!
