67: Chapter 67 Millions in Pocket Money

Do you know what human paste looks like?

It looks like a rotting mire, with disgusting mucus covering a pile of rotted flesh. Red, yellow, and white are mixed together in a bizarre color combination, like carrion fished out of Hell.

The nearby Marauding Cultivators were stunned as they were splattered with bits of flesh all over their bodies and faces; the fishy stench made them unable to suppress their nausea.

Luo Yunkai and Jin Fugui understood Xiao Tian too well; when Xiao Tian exerted his power, they decisively erected a spiritual barrier to protect Su Xin, Ye Fan, and themselves.

The splattering rotted flesh hit their constructed spiritual barrier with a "pop" and landed at their feet not far away.

Glancing at the mud-like flesh tissue on the ground, Luo Yunkai was silent.

He wondered, was there something wrong with his genes?

Why was his Bloodline... so indescribable?

Luo Yunkai seemed to lose all his strength and means in an instant.

He waved his hand wearily, "Finish it quickly."

Upon hearing this, Su Xin struck fiercely.

Countless black vines suddenly grew from the ground, and this area seemed to instantly become as terrifying as Hell.

The vines bared their fangs and brandished their claws, emitting a faint poisonous gas that numbed everyone's senses.

Back then, the reason Wonderful Sword True Lord was so unknowingly invaded by Su Xin's vines, which absorbed her Qi and caused her strength to drop repeatedly until she was finally killed by Xiao Tian, was precisely because of the poison from the Heart-Rotting Flower gifted by Jin Fugui!

"Oh no! There's poisonous gas!" The female voice that had been gentle and charming a moment ago suddenly became sharp and severe.

Su Xin's gloomy eyes looked over, piercing through the sky full of flying withered leaves.

"Too late."

"Swish, swish, swish!"

The vines covered the sky and earth, pouncing in all directions simultaneously.

"Squelch!" "Squelch!" "Squelch!"

The sound of vines piercing flesh rang out one after another amidst the sky full of withered leaves.

The screams only lasted for a very short time before they completely vanished.

When the withered leaves fell to the ground, it was calm and quiet.

A ground full of eerie, desiccated corpses, drained of their Qi and flesh, lay scattered around them; it was as if they had entered some forbidden land.

Jin Fugui swallowed his saliva without a trace, looked left and right, and leaned closer to Ye Fan.

He felt a bit more secure.

Luo Yunkai looked at the sky speechlessly.

Really, looking at this ground full of corpses, if someone said they were the villains, people would definitely believe it.

For example...

"Whoosh—"

Luo Yunkai looked at the clean silhouette flying away on a sword with a bitter smile, speechless.

Su Xin lowered his head silently, "Father, I..."

Luo Yunkai waved his hand, "I don't blame you. Against an enemy, no amount of cruelty is too much, as long as you kill the enemy."

He took a deep breath and looked at Jin Fugui with a serious expression, "Wealthy, don't keep me in suspense this time. I must fully understand that child, Xuanfeng."

Otherwise, how can I acknowledge him as my son?

A group of father and brothers who don't look like good people, and a grandfather and mother who, although not very good to him, gave him wealth?

Jin Fugui nodded, indicating he understood.

...

Dan City, Duobao Tower, eighth floor.

Jin Fugui sat opposite the father and son, Luo Yunkai and his son.

"Uncle, wanting Chen Xuanfeng to acknowledge you is actually very simple."

Luo Yunkai sat up straight, listening attentively, "Go on."

"As long as you are willing to support him in becoming a Sword Cultivator, and can get the City Lord of Dan City to agree!" Jin Fugui gave the solution straightforwardly.

"Uncle, I believe you should be able to see that all of Chen Xuanfeng's posturing behavior is built on his reputation as the Peerless Sword Young Master Chen."

Luo Yunkai nodded; this point was indeed not hard to see.

Jin Fugui sighed, "Actually, this is just a form of confrontation between Chen Xuanfeng and his grandfather, though I can't rule out that he does enjoy showing off in front of others."

Ye Fan frowned, "The City Lord of Dan City wants Xuanfeng to learn Alchemy and take over Dan City in the future, but Xuanfeng wants to become a Sword Cultivator and roam the world freely, is that it?"

Jin Fugui nodded, "That is exactly the situation. Actually, I understand the City Lord of Dan City's approach."

"Dan City must eventually be handed over to a Disciple. How can the City Lord of Dan City rest easy about his daughter and grandson? And how can a new City Lord of Dan City rest easy knowing that the previous City Lord's Bloodline is always suppressing him?"

"Only when Chen Xuanfeng sits in the position of City Lord of Dan City is it a good choice for everyone."

"Unfortunately, even though Chen Xuanfeng has been taught by the City Lord of Dan City, a Level 5 Alchemist, since he was young, his Alchemy talent is truly worrying. After more than twenty years, he has only barely become a Level 2 Alchemist."

"Chen Xuanfeng himself is unwilling to learn Alchemy and is more interested in becoming a Sword Cultivator." Jin Fugui shook his head and sighed, with an expression of wishing he could forge iron into steel.

If it were him, he would never give up such a lucrative position as Dan City.

Everyone in the room fell silent.

Ye Fan was especially silent.

What he dreamed of was something others treated like discarded shoes; how could this not make him silent?

"Uncle, if you can persuade Chen Xuanfeng to spend more effort on Alchemy while practicing sword, perhaps you won't need to go to the trouble of taking him away."

"Although in Dan City, there is his mother's all-out suppression, the status of being the grandson of the City Lord of Dan City can provide him with resources that you, Uncle, cannot currently reach..."

Luo Yunkai said indifferently, "What if I offer ten million in pocket money every month?"

Jin Fugui was stunned, "What?"

He turned his gaze to Xiao Tian and the other two.

Xiao Tian grinned, laughing heartily, "This, the old man already notified us brothers; once our cultivation reaches Foundation Establishment, he will raise our pocket money to ten million."

Even Jin Fugui, the Wealthy Young Master of Duobao Tower, couldn't help but feel deeply tempted.

He looked at Luo Yunkai longingly, "Uncle, do you think it's possible that I am your long-lost Bloodline?"

Xiao Tian "pfft" laughed out loud and put his arm around Jin Fugui's shoulder, "Possible, very possible! Big Brother Jin, hurry and change how you address him; the old man's fee for acknowledging a new son will definitely not be low."

Jin Fugui finally suppressed his restless heart.

Sigh, if his mother found out he was acknowledging fathers randomly outside, she would definitely beat him to death.

After all, in his mother's heart, his father ranked first, she ranked second, and he ranked third.

Jin Fugui shook his head regretfully, "Forget it."

After saying that, he laughed, "It's only me who could resist this temptation. Ten million Spirit Stones a month, tsk tsk tsk. If this news were released, how many Second Generation Cultivators would be checking their own Bloodlines to see if they could get connected to you, Uncle Luo."

Jin Fugui brought the topic back, "Uncle Luo, with such financial power, actually, whether Chen Xuanfeng stays in Dan City or not is not that important."

But he shook his head again, "However, the City Lord of Dan City is not easy to deal with."

"He will definitely not let go. Only if Chen Xuanfeng becomes the City Lord of Dan City can Dan City continue to protect his willful daughter after he passes away. This, there is no solution."

Luo Yunkai did not think there was no solution.

He already had a good idea in his mind.

But the premise is that Chen Xuanfeng truly has the talent for being a Sword Cultivator.

Only then would he fully support him!

"Wealthy, help me keep an eye on news about that child. I want to see him the next time he leaves the city."
