Chapter 1854: Laying Cards on the Table

Tan Shaoting is outside, so of course he steps forward.

"May I know what you all mean by this?"

The steward of the Xiao Yao Family truly feels quite stifled. How could this happen?

"Ask us what we mean? You killed our steward."

"Killed and that’s that. In this world, everything should have reason and evidence. It’s not like we are people who kill indiscriminately. I think you’re well aware of why the killing happened.

This time, what did you come here for? We wouldn’t mind opening the killing spree again."

Tan Shaoting’s words were quite arrogant, making the Xiao Yao Family lose face.

They originally did not come here to fight; losing a few people is, of course, a loss, but they still want to recruit them.

But with so many outsiders present, it’s really embarrassing to speak up.

The matter here is really a bit tricky. Truth be told, Su Yuanyuan also doesn’t want to offend too many people. Those who came here do not mean to cause trouble.

She transmitted a message to Tan Shaoting.

"Everyone, we have other matters. We weren’t wrong regarding the killings. We don’t mean any harm to the Xiao Yao Family. Any family or faction that comes to cause trouble, we’ll handle them, but it’s not aimed at the Xiao Yao Family."

This is already giving face to the Xiao Yao Family. The steward is also a person who understands.

"We know the course of events. Since it’s been spoken, enemies should be resolved rather than formed.

All in all, our people are dead, our Family Head wishes to invite you all to sit down and talk."

Su Yuanyuan understood that they wanted them to perform alchemy.

Tan Shaoting heard his wife’s transmitted message, "Alright. But we don’t have time now, we have something important to do, rest assured, we will certainly go to the Xiao Yao Family to see the Family Head."

The steward cupped his hands, "Then we look forward to your visit sincerely."

Tan Shaoting also cupped his hands.

Those who wanted to watch the show were quite disappointed, thinking that the female Killing God would make a move, but she didn’t say a word.

The group got on the Flying Boat, the first stop undoubtedly being Wutong City, to congratulate Dong Yong on the birth of his two children.

Xiao Wan could now be seen as pregnant. The couple didn’t have deep romance but warmth. Like an old couple, the romance had turned into family affection.

Knowing she could go home to see her father, she was very happy.

Her father’s wish was finally realized, which is good, and she had people accompanying him while she was away.

She wasn’t worried about her cultivation level at all, even though her son’s cultivation had already surpassed hers; once she gave birth, she would certainly enter seclusion to catch up with them.

The one inside is a Divine Embryo, and the family will all ascend to the Divine Realm, so she must follow along.

Su Yuanyuan and Tan Shaoting discussed what to give. Actually, they don’t have much in hand in the Immortal World, though they have many Immortal Crystals, they can’t give those.

The most presentable gift would be an elixir.

Su Yuanyuan entered space to refine elixirs, giving plenty as a token of the family’s goodwill.

Shanqing had already begun cultivation, the cultivation technique provided by Chen Rushi. Being an ancestor, he naturally had plenty of things.

Meteor found it particularly boring. The children were already beginning to cultivate. She had also entered into the Golden Immortal stage and no longer needed to hide away. Just came across Pishi who had come out.

Pishi squinted his eyes. "Meteor Dao-friend, shall we chat?"

Meteor paused for a moment. "Alright."

The two stood on the deck. Pishi was a straightforward person, setting prohibitions around the two of them.

"What is the matter, Dao-friend?" They both spoke thoughtfully. What business did he have with her?

"Meteor Dao-friend, should we become Dao partners?"

Meteor was stunned. He didn’t expect this matter. He had heard his junior sister mention that Tian Yan always provoked his three friends; was this friend one of them?

"Pishi Dao-friend, we are not suitable."

"Why aren’t we suitable? Where are we not suitable?"

"Just in the time we’ve spoken, we’ve talked more than we have in decades."

Pishi nodded. "I have had this idea for over twenty years, but since things were always unsettled, I didn’t say it.

Now, the situation with Ba Tian is also resolved, and the Xuantian Sect will inevitably be established, and I can consider my own affairs."

Meteor listened to his words, unsure what to say; he had held feelings for twenty years, but she hadn’t felt it at all.

Quieting her mind, she thought about that period, and indeed her encounters with Pishi were quite few.

"I don’t deny that I’ve been provoked by Tian Yan, but it’s mainly because of Shanqing. Seeing newborn children, I genuinely envy them."

This remark struck Meteor’s heart. She too liked children, even though pregnancy might delay cultivation and affect one’s level, but watching such a small child grow little by little, the joy and progress are likely the same.

Pishi was no fool, aware of what this female cultivator cared about.

"I see you particularly like Shanqing, you must like children. So why not have your own? Your own child would be even closer."

"It’s not something you can have just because you want it." Meteor said frowning.

"It really can be had if you wish to seek it."

"Are what they say really true?"

"What did they say?"

"I heard outside that the Tan Family has a secret recipe, a child-bearing recipe."

Pishi shook his head and then nodded.

"So which is it? Nodding and shaking your head. Is there or isn’t there?"

"There’s no secret recipe, but there’s something that can truly increase the chances of pregnancy."

This made Meteor interested. She didn’t have such a big aspiration for Ascension to the Divine Realm. She also realized that if the Xuantian Sect is established, she would definitely join, ascending would be great, not ascending she could still have a billion years life span, what’s not good about it.

If she could have a child connected by blood, she wouldn’t feel she’d come to this world in vain.

Pishi noted her expression, knowing she was tempted.

"Actually, I don’t really aspire to become a God. Before ascending to the Immortal World, it was because I wanted a longer life, now I feel it is enough."

Pishi laughed, which he seldom did, "I don’t have your kind of thinking, I just live in the moment. Ascending would be great, but I wouldn’t insist too much."

Meteor breathed a sigh of relief. Truth be told, in the future, even if they had no children, they would still have each other.

But Pishi was so quiet. Would they remain silent in the future?

"What else are you worried about?"

"Just your personality, you love working on Arrays, possibly closing out for a long time, and I’d be alone. That’s what I consider, and perhaps we wouldn’t have a shared language."

"I won’t close out for long. As for a shared language, that’s something formed over time through familiarity."
