104: Chapter 104 Door-to-Door Visit

"Young lady, this whip looks quite nice; it must be a Medium Grade Spiritual Artifact, right?"

Yuan Chen asked with a smile.

As he spoke, he fed two more pieces of Sweet Silk into Ming Xin's mouth.

Ming Xin thoroughly enjoyed Yuan Chen's pampering, chewing on the snacks every day.

After asking, Yuan Chen tasted one himself.

It was truly quite good.

The flavor was exceptionally delicious.

Bringing Wu Ji along was actually somewhat useful.

He even knew which foods were the most delicious.

This Sweet Silk was a treat brought by an outside faction, and Yuan Chen truly hadn't known about it.

This was his first time eating it as well.

He glanced at Ming Xin, who was eating happily; it seemed she thought it was quite good too.

He started thinking about having Wu Ji buy more later so he could take them back for his other wives and children to try.

He would probably need to buy several dozen catties of this flavor.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be enough to go around.

After all, he had fifty or sixty wives and children!

"There's no need for 'young lady.' I'm old enough to be your grandmother's grandmother's grandmother. I'll be bold and ask you to just call me Auntie."

Great Elder Wu Xuan waved her hand and said straightforwardly.

"As for this whip! It is indeed a Medium Grade Spiritual Artifact, but it is the only Medium Grade Spiritual Artifact I have on me."

"Yuan Chen, do you think I can succeed and obtain the high-grade spiritual tool you have?"

"Also, when the time comes, you won't covet my beauty, go back on your word, and force me into your quarters, will you?"

Great Elder Wu Xuan had a boisterous personality.

She found Yuan Chen's appearance quite pleasant and didn't find him particularly detestable.

He likely wasn't some scumbag.

So, she asked directly.

Yuan Chen: "..."

What nonsense about grandmothers and aunties.

Everyone was just surviving in the Chaotic Star Sea.

Who cared about that?

Of course, he couldn't call her Auntie.

Although, the thought was actually quite exciting.

But he, Yuan Chen, also cared about his Face.

If he were to marry her and bring her home...

Auntie, Teacher, Daddy, Brother—calling her whatever would be fine.

But for now, forget it.

"Miss A-Xuan is quite humorous."

"Hey! Who told you to call me A-Xuan?"

Great Elder Wu Xuan glared at Yuan Chen, speaking with dissatisfaction.

"Naughty!"

Yuan Chen smiled indulgently.

"Ahhh! Don't speak to me like that!"

Great Elder Wu Xuan looked at Yuan Chen, losing her composure.

"Brat, are you looking for a beating?"

As she spoke, she swallowed the last bite of chicken.

Her eyes rolled around.

She grabbed at the side with her greasy hands.

"Great-Aunt, you have Spells at your disposal; wouldn't it be better to just clean yourself up? Why must you wipe it on me?"

A muffled voice rang out.

Wu Ji, with a bruised and swollen Face, asked helplessly with a miserable expression.

As for the whip marks on his Face, it wasn't that he didn't want to reduce the swelling.

It was that Great Elder Wu Xuan had intentionally made them into unhealable marks, which could only recover slowly over time.

Great Elder Wu Xuan glanced at him indifferently and said with disdain.

"I don't like the look of you, do you have a problem with that?"

"Uh... no problem!"

Wu Ji said with teary eyes.

Watching the eccentric pair, Yuan Chen found it somewhat amusing.

He didn't mind Great Elder Wu Xuan's adorably fierce gaze.

He didn't know how she managed it, being able to make such a cute expression at her age.

He answered Great Elder Wu Xuan's previous question earnestly.

"A-Xuan, you don't need to worry; this Young Master is not the type to force others."

"A twisted melon is not sweet."

"This King is also a man who respects love very much. When the time comes, I will only follow what was previously said and only have three days of contact."

"Three days to understand each other—give me a chance, and give yourselves a chance. Who knows, I might be your true love? Wouldn't it be a pity to miss out?"

"After three days, if you don't fancy me, you can just leave directly. No one will stop you, and you can take the high-grade spiritual tool with you!"

Great Elder Wu Xuan's Face lit up with joy.

That was more like it.

Then she looked Yuan Chen up and down indifferently.

This old lady has endured over a thousand years of loneliness.

You think you can get this young lady's body just like that?

Pfft!

A mere three days is nothing to worry about.

I'll just run off once I get the reward, hmph!

She hid her smugness and said to Yuan Chen.

"Then, do you have any whips among your High Grade Magical Artifacts? I don't like other weapons!"

Muttering, she reached her small hand into Ming Xin's arms without ceremony.

She had been craving it just by looking at it earlier.

Since they had been talking for so long, they could be considered friends.

What was wrong with eating a little something?

She tossed the Sweet Silk into her mouth and chewed.

Her eyes lit up.

Delicious!

Subsequently, her two hands kept reaching toward Ming Xin.

Ming Xin was stunned.

But she couldn't say much about it.

Yuan Chen found it funny.

"Wu Ji, go buy some more."

"Buy all of these!"

As he spoke, he tossed three or five High-Grade Spirit Stones to the other party.

Of course, he had to give Wu Ji money.

A poor devil like Wu Ji couldn't even afford this kind of food.

Wu Ji immediately caught the Spirit Stones in his hand.

"Alright, I'm off!"

He smacked his lips.

Clutching the Spirit Stones in his hand.

He couldn't help but weep inside.

Spending so much money just to buy a snack.

He probably only got this much pocket money in over a year, right?

After the other party left, Yuan Chen smiled at Great Elder Wu Xuan.

"Of course I do? So, A-Xuan, you like whips?"

"And I have two more on me right now. Do you want to take a look first?"

Great Elder Wu Xuan's eyes lit up.

She said hurriedly.

"Take them out and let me see!"

Yuan Chen said indifferently.

"Don't be in such a hurry. There are too many people here; it's not convenient to look at them."

"How about we go to the Exotic Beast Mansion and sit for a while?"

Great Elder Wu Xuan immediately became vigilant.

She took a step back and looked at Yuan Chen.

"What are you trying to do?"

In the moment she stepped back, she grabbed a large handful of Sweet Silk from Ming Xin's arms.

Yuan Chen spread his hands.

"Don't be so sensitive. This Young Master really just wants to find a quiet place. The inns are all full right now, and I can't find anywhere else. If you don't want to, you can go to the Wuque Clan's residence."

Great Elder Wu Xuan hesitated, but her curiosity about the Spiritual Artifact was too great.

"Then let's go to our residence!"

After Wu Ji returned, the group followed Great Elder Wu Xuan toward their lodging.

After Yuan Chen threw the large bags of Sweet Silk he had bought into his storage ring, he stuffed a small bag into the hands of both Great Elder Wu Xuan and Wu Ji.

Neither Great Elder Wu Xuan nor the other refused.

Not taking something for free...

That wasn't the style of their Wuque Clan.

Not long after, the group arrived at a secluded place in the east of the city.

The Wuque couldn't afford the inns in the city and could only stay in a guesthouse belonging to the Qingniu Clan.

However, there wasn't much difference between the two.

It was just that one sounded like it had more Face and was closer to the plaza.

Just as Yuan Chen and his group arrived at the entrance of a residence.

They saw several men and women walking out.

They were likely preparing to go out for a stroll.

Seeing Great Elder Wu Xuan and the other return, they immediately called out respectfully.

"Grand Elder!"

Then they looked curiously at Yuan Chen and Ming Xin.

Who are these two?

Wu Ji was still quite savvy.

He demonstrated the polite and courteous side of a host.

"Let me introduce everyone."

"This is Ancestor Yuan Chen, and this is Ancestor's wife!"

Wuque Clan members: "???"

A whip that Wu Ji was most familiar with instantly appeared in Great Elder Wu Xuan's hand.
