230: Since you already have the answer in your heart, why ask again?

"Huo Lingji... I don't know what Gongzi is saying?"

Seeing others walking up the stairs, Huo Lingji's eyes flickered slightly at this moment, and she replied with a somewhat vague smile.

Xiao Chen merely smiled faintly upon hearing this and did not mention the other party's little secret.

"Young Master Xiao, since you rested well last night, I wonder... can we set off for the Fire Family now?"

After taking a deep breath and suppressing the various distracting thoughts in her heart, Huo Lingji asked politely.

"Mm, yes..."

Xiao Chen nodded upon hearing this and did not refuse the suggestion.

It just so happened that he also wanted to quickly finish harvesting the Fire Family, and then return to the Liuyun City Xiao Family to lie down comfortably for a while.

"Is Gongzi in a hurry to set off?"

Hearing the conversation between Xiao Chen and Huo Lingji, Zi Ling and Zi Luo walked out of the room.

Their expressions held some reluctance.

"How did these two come out of his room together?"

"Could it be..."

Huo Lingji was somewhat dumbfounded when she saw Zi Ling and Zi Luo walk out with flushed and shy faces.

"No, their cultivation... they all broke through?!"

As her thoughts turned.

Huo Lingji sensed the cultivation aura of the two, and her expression changed again in this instant.

Previously, Zi Luo's cultivation was at the first level of the Cave Heaven Realm, but now she had broken through to the third level of the Cave Heaven Realm.

And Zi Ling's cultivation was at the first level of the Revolving Core Realm, but now she had actually broken through to the fourth level of the Revolving Core Realm?!

What kind of great tonics did these two take? Their cultivation levels are increasing so fiercely?

"Mm, anyway, there's nothing else to do right now, so let's just go take a look around the Fire Family."

"If you two want to go, you can also come along and see."

Ignoring Huo Lingji's shock, Xiao Chen looked at the two beauties and said in a gentle tone.

"We won't go to the Fire Family for now, the Merchant Guild still has some matters to deal with."

"The two of us will stay at the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild to help Gongzi collect more resources and items, and auction off some of the stocked pills."

Zi Ling and Zi Luo shook their heads upon hearing this, and after thinking for a moment, replied with a faint smile.

If they followed him to the Fire Family.

They would just be visiting, completely unable to help Xiao Chen in any way.

It would be better to stay in the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild and utilize their business abilities to help Xiao Chen collect more resources.

Anyway, with the Spatial Array Plate, Xiao Chen could arrive at any time.

Therefore.

Instead of sticking by Xiao Chen's side and achieving nothing, it would be better to utilize their own value and contribute more strength for Xiao Chen.

"Alright, then you two stay in the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild for now. If anything happens, send me a message."

Xiao Chen did not insist upon hearing this, but merely said with a faint smile.

Anyway, if he wanted to return to the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild, it would only take the time of a teleportation, no different from strolling through his backyard.

And the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild.

There was also Purple Cang, a Sage Realm expert, so the safety of the two was fully guaranteed.

Next.

After giving instructions to Purple Cang and Purple Xuan and the others, Xiao Chen took Cai Yan and her group and sped towards the Dongyuan Huo Family.

"Holy crap, where's Gongzi?!"

"He left so quickly?!"

Seeing the Twin-Headed Demonic Dragon Carriage soar from the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild, Huang Guang quickly abandoned the morning court session that was halfway through and rushed into the Purple Cloud Merchant Guild in a panic.

As a result, he only saw the Twin-Headed Demonic Dragon Carriage disappear into the distant horizon.

This left Huang Guang dumbfounded.

"Old geezer, did you neglect Gongzi? Why did Gongzi leave so early in the morning?!"

After being stunned for a moment, Huang Guang roared loudly.

He hadn't even sent his precious princesses to Xiao Chen to be his maids yet, and the other party had already left in a hurry.

Whose face should this wishful thinking be slapped on?!

"Your Majesty, Gongzi left because of the Fire Family's invitation. Why don't you... go find the Dongyuan Huo Family to vent your anger?"

Looking at Huang Guang's frustrated expression, Purple Cang coughed dryly and said faintly.

As soon as these words fell.

It instantly left Huang Guang speechless, and in the end, he could only leave with a frustrated expression.

However, he secretly remembered in his heart that the next time Xiao Chen arrived, he would definitely make sure the other party had a good time.

He would directly take Xiao Chen for a tour of the Great Qian Imperial Palace backyard, and he could pick any concubine or princess he fancied!

"Gongzi, may I take the liberty to ask, who... exactly are you?"

While Cai Yan and the others were resting in the carriage compartment, Xiao Chen stood on the viewing platform of the palace carriage's upper level, enjoying the breeze.

Huo Lingji walked over and asked at this time.

"This This Young Master... is not some divine being, but just a lucky country boy."

Xiao Chen smiled faintly upon hearing this, without any hint of arrogance on his face.

If he weren't a transmigrator and didn't have the system, it would be impossible for him to live as comfortably as he does now.

Perhaps he would even be stepped on by some Long Aotian, shouting with a frustrated expression... 'Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not bully the poor young man.'

And then be killed by the other party in the next moment.

Therefore, Xiao Chen was very clear about his position. Without a golden finger, he was not even as good as an average expert.

"Gongzi is joking..."

"If you are a lucky country boy, I'm afraid there would be no monstrous geniuses in the Eastern Wasteland."

Huo Lingji smiled faintly upon hearing this, clearly thinking that Xiao Chen was being humble.

Xiao Chen merely smiled noncommittally upon hearing this, then continued to look at the vast world before him.

"Young Master Xiao, I want to ask... If... I mean if!"

"If you can restore my physique, I wonder... what price would I need to pay?"

Seeing Xiao Chen's gaze drifting, always looking at the scenery ahead.

After a struggle, Huo Lingji gritted her teeth and asked.

The words Xiao Chen said were too tempting to her.

She had been searching for years to awaken her physique without success, and every year she had to suffer from the backlash of the Demonic Fire, and even live in fear every day.

Afraid that some beastly expert would forcefully seize her original yin, causing her cultivation to be completely lost and rendering her a cripple.

Because in the Fire Family.

She had felt such gazes before, such as the Fire Family's Grand Elder, and many experts from that lineage.

One by one, they had shown greedy and lustful gazes towards her.

If she weren't the disciple of the Fire Family's Third Elder, and her talent was also high enough to be valued.

Before Fire Tianxiong and her Master fell, the Fire Family's Grand Elder wouldn't dare to do anything to her.

Otherwise.

She might now be secretly imprisoned, becoming a tool for those beasts to vent their desires.

Of course.

It was also possible that her current cultivation was too low, and although she possessed a special physique, the harvesting effect was relatively weak.

That's why those with ulterior motives had been patient and hadn't acted against her.

They were just waiting for her to fully mature before harvesting her.

"Since you already have the answer in your heart, why ask again?"

Upon hearing Huo Lingji's question, the corner of Xiao Chen's mouth curved into an arc, and he spoke very directly at this moment.

"Your physique is of a very high level, and the price to restore it is not small."

"And what you can give me..."

"Besides the Supreme inheritance on you, the other is you, Huo Lingji."
