130: What’s so good about grabbing a bottle of water?

"Alright." Su Duo knew she was tasked with buying water, so she puffed out her chest, full of vigor.

"Welcome aboard this train. Please sit down and hold on tight. Please purchase a ticket upon boarding. The ticket price is one hundred and fifty low-grade spirit stones."

"Give me a bottle of water," Su Duo said, grandly pulling out spirit stones after entering.

There was only one bottle of train exclusive water left, and she was determined to get it.

"Okay, here is your train exclusive water. Please take it."

After getting the water, Su Duo turned and waved at Zhuang Sanming.

Zhuang Sanming smiled back at her.

Feng Zhi, who was queuing in front of Zhuang Sanming and Ximen Chuifeng, was displeased: "They only bought one bottle of water, and there's none left for us. Sure enough, you can't trust strangers."

Although Wang Yi also really wanted to buy water, he knew it wasn't anyone else's fault: "It's fine. We queued too far back. Next time, we'll come earlier."

"You always take other people's side."

Feng Zhi sighed. He really wanted to improve his martial artist talent. Last time, he only drank one bottle of water, and it never felt like enough.

However, he also knew it wasn't anyone else's fault, so he added, "Alright, alright, let's go back. The water is sold out now, and our boarding time hasn't arrived yet. Let's go do a mission first and then come back."

"Okay," Wang Yi nodded.

At this moment, Little Ice Fox was still nestled in Ge Yunying's arms. It seemed to find it too comfortable and didn't want to come out.

Hearing them constantly talking about "water" and such, it poked its head out: "Woo woo woo?"

"Do you want to get down?" Ge Yunying asked.

Little Ice Fox nodded.

Ge Yunying gently squatted down and placed it on the ground.

Little Ice Fox then took a few quick steps and jumped onto the train. By this time, Xiao Shen and Liu Ling'er had also boarded. The person at the very front of the line was Zhuang Sanming.

Little Ice Fox suddenly cut in line, but Zhuang Sanming didn't stop it. Anyway, all the water was sold out now, so boarding early or late made no difference.

But for Little Ice Fox, was there something important for it to jump on the train so quickly?

Little Ice Fox boarded the train quite late yesterday, so it couldn't board today yet. However, after it got on, Lin Feng didn't immediately chase it away.

"Woo woo woo? (What is the water they're talking about?)"

Little Ice Fox jumped onto the train out of curiosity about this.

And it had a doubt in its heart: could the water they were queuing up to buy be the train exclusive water it saw on that menu yesterday?

No way?

Someone actually bought it?

The water that was the only item on the entire menu?

"It's the train exclusive water on the menu, seven hundred low-grade spirit stones a bottle, limited to three bottles per day."

Little Ice Fox: !!!

It really was!

These people... how should it put it?

What was so great about a bottle of water that they had to fight over it?

Little Ice Fox scratched its head, unable to understand.

"Woo woo woo, woo woo woo. (Do you still have Healing Pills? Give me one.)"

After Little Ice Fox advanced to the third rank, the fierce beasts it challenged were stronger than before, no longer at the level of a first-rank Skyfire Chicken, so it often got injured.

As long as it had a Healing Pill, it wouldn't have to worry about external injuries.

"Okay, here is your Healing Pill. Please take it."

Lin Feng checked his sales progress:

"Train's current Martial Enhancement Pill sales progress (4/10), Healing Pill sales progress (4/10), cultivation technique sales progress (1/4), train exclusive water sales progress (12/30)."

Sure enough, the train exclusive water sold the fastest!

After receiving the Healing Pill, Little Ice Fox jumped off the train, greeted Ge Yunying, and then left.

Although Ge Yunying was very reluctant to part with Little Ice Fox, she had to.

Wang Yi felt jealous just watching: "Alright, stop looking. Little Ice Fox has gone far away."

"Sigh," Ge Yunying sighed, "Let's go, we'll get on the train too."

...155 Fortress, Xiao Family.

In the Xiao Family's Spirit Gathering Tower, Xiao Yue tried several times but still couldn't break through the barrier between the second and third floors.

Seeing that time was running out, he had no choice but to give up and remain on the second floor to cultivate.

Tomorrow was the Four Clan Tournament, and today was his last time entering the Spirit Gathering Tower before the tournament.

It was a pity he still couldn't enter the third floor.

He wondered how much more spiritual energy there was on the third floor compared to the second.

At least before this Four Clan Tournament, he wouldn't get an answer.

Outside the Spirit Gathering Tower, all the Xiao Family elders were present, but the family head, Xiao Zhenxuan, was conspicuously absent.

At this moment, Xiao Zhenxuan's main concern was not the final outcome of the Four Clan Tournament, but how to deal with the Liu Family.

That's right, he had given the Liu Family too much time, yet Liu Yancheng still hadn't truly shown his stance.

Liu Yancheng's method was to stall, dragging it out again and again. It had been dragged out until now, and he still hadn't said whether he would pledge allegiance to the Xiao Family.

Previously, Xiao Zhenxuan had been considerate of Yue'er because Yue'er wanted to marry Liu Ling'er. If Liu Yancheng could hand over Liu Ling'er, then the two families, forming a marital alliance, could naturally become allies.

However, Liu Ling'er's whereabouts had been unknown, and Liu Yancheng hadn't given the Xiao Family an explanation. Xiao Zhenxuan's patience ran out, and he decided to use the Four Clan Tournament as an opportunity to eliminate the Liu Family.

So now, Xiao Zhenxuan was discussing this matter with the family heads of the Hua Family and the Wang Family.

For the Hua Family and the Wang Family, they also disapproved of the Liu Family's actions, and keeping the Liu Family brought them no benefit. It would be better to use this opportunity to pledge allegiance to the Xiao Family and show their sincerity.

Although they had already sided with the Xiao Family, if they had a common enemy, their alliance would become even stronger.

Moreover, both their families had already submitted to the Xiao Family, so why should the Liu Family, which hadn't submitted, be able to live as usual?

"So that's the plan. Do you have any opinions?"

After Xiao Zhenxuan finished explaining the plan to encircle and suppress the Liu Family, he looked at the two of them.

"I have no objections," the Wang Family head quickly said.

"I have no objections either," the Hua Family head also quickly stated.

"Good. In that case, you two go back and prepare," Xiao Zhenxuan was very satisfied with their attitudes.

"Yes."

After the family heads of the Hua Family and the Wang Family left, Xiao Zhenxuan revealed a faint smile.

The title of the Four Great Families had been spoken for so many years, and now it could finally be changed.

First, destroy the Liu Family, turning the Four Great Families into the Three Great Families. After that, his Xiao Family would reign supreme.

Perhaps one day, his Xiao Family would also integrate into the 155 Fortress's top Three Great Powers, becoming the fourth great faction.

For the future of the Xiao Family, he would do his best to pave the way for Yue'er.

"Yue'er, your father hopes that in the future, the Xiao Family will flourish under your hands."

Xiao Zhenxuan muttered to himself, then walked with his hands behind his back towards the Xiao Family's mansion... Just as Wang Yi and the other two were about to leave, Zhuang Sanming ran over: "Wait, don't you want water?"

"The water is already sold out. You only bought one bottle, so we won't take what's yours," Wang Yi turned around and said.
