Chapter 23

Senior, please dont make things difficult for me. I cant predict your fortune, The Heavenly Secrets Pavilion master smiled bitterly.

Hehe, if you knew this would happen, why did you promise this? In the future, dont predict such unpredictable things like fortune and fate.

Xiao Changtian laughed and said.

If he didnt intend to swindle, he wouldnt have had such an ending today.

It was a lesson for this wandering Daoist! As for the 100 taels of gold

Xiao Changtian only took ten taels.

Senior, these are all yours. Please dont refuse them, The pavilion master quickly said. He was panicked.

This young man was an expert, and the pavilion master knew he couldnt offend him.

Moreover, the words of this expert were the same as the admonishment his master had given him when he had first entered the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion.

Predicting the heavenly secrets was a treasonous thing. However, after cultivating the art of heavenly secrets to perfection, he no longer cared about it because he could use other means to eliminate the heavenly tribulation.

Moreover, no one could remind him.

Only today, when he had made a fool of himself in front of senior, did he truly come to his senses. The apprehension and nervousness he had felt when he first entered the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion again welled up in him.

The senior was reminding him if he predicted many heavenly secrets, it would eventually lead to a karmic backlas.h.!.+

The senior was a kind man!

No need. Since the previous rule was ten taels of gold, its ten taels of gold. Just remember not to do such a thing in the future, Xiao Changtian said indifferently as he left with the ten taels of gold.

He left the pavilion master of Heavenly Secrets Pavilion alone to reflect on his actions.

Tsk! This man is a swindler, after all. He is not to be trusted.

Lets leave. Theres nothing to see here.

The surrounding crowd also dispersed in an uproar. If the Daoist couldnt read anything, what kind of fortune teller was he? Immediately, everyone lost interest.

On the streets, Xiao Changtian looked at the ten taels of gold in his hand, feeling happy.

Ive been quite lucky recently. First, someone bought a piece of calligraphy, and then I met a wealthy swindler. Ill have money now to renovate the courtyard.

I just dont know if Jiuer has found the craftsmen.

Xiao Changtian thought.

Dongsheng Continent.

On a vast sea, a few masters were floating in the void, and their powerful Qi activities caused the sea to surge.

Fellow Daoist Jihuang, its impossible for us to be craftsmen for others.

Thats right. Were all cultivators at the third-level Heavenly Tribulation Realm. Dont even think about insulting us even if were not your match.

We also have our dignity!

Five middle-aged men stood in front of Mu Jiuhuang, each holding a different weapon.

These five people were the sect leader and elders of the Heavenly-building Sect. When they were still weak, they were construction workers. However, due to fate, they obtained an opportunity and evolved into Daoism through construction work, becoming powerful people.

Hehehe, it seems you guys dont like to be persuaded.

Mu Jiuhuang chuckled. The aura around her turned cold. A powerful aura burst out, instantly suppressing the five people.

Argh! What are you trying to do?

Ahh!

The five of them shouted. Their faces flushed red.

Under the pressure of Mu Jiuhuangs aura, they found breathing difficult. They were like small boats on the sea that could be overturned at any time.

No! How is this possible? How can you be so powerful?

The five of them were shocked, and their faces filled with horror.

Even if Mu Jiuhuang was a ninth-stage Heavenly Tribulation Realm expert, the five of them could still escape even if they couldnt defeat him.

But now, they realized that they couldnt even escape.

Because Im already above the Heavenly Tribulation Realm, Mu Jiuhuang said indifferently. His face was cold, but his voice resounded over the entire sea.

At this moment, she was more like Emperor Jiuhuang, the emperor who controlled life and death! She was different from the courtyards submissive maid.

Senior, do you still remember me?

On the way, Xiao Changtian was stopped by Chu Yiren.

Chu Yirens smiled affectionately, and her big, watery eyes stared at Xiao Changtians eyes.

Youre so silly!

Xiao Changtian looked at the young lady in front of him. Wasnt this the young lady who seemed dimwitted?

Did she run out again?

Wasnt this girl following Chu Kuangren before? Could this girl be Chu Kuangrens daughter?

Forget it. Ill take you back.

Xiao Changtian said helplessly. They were considered acquaintances, so he couldnt watch this silly girl get abducted.

He would bring her back first. Chu Kuangren would send people out to look for her, and he would let the Chu familys people take this silly girl back.

Senior, youre taking me back? Hearing this, Chu Yiren felt her heart hammering.

Follow me, Xiao Changtian grabbed Chu Yirens wrist and brought her back.

Chu Yiren felt even more delighted when he held her.

It seems like youve taken a liking to me, senior. Ill go to your room tonight and settle this matter, then Chu Yiren lowered her head as she thought. Her face filled with excitement and antic.i.p.ation.

Soon, the few of them returned to the small courtyard simultaneously.

Master, who is she? The first thing Mu Jiuhuang saw was that Xiao Changtian was holding a womans hand.

Baffled, she directly asked.

After she spoke, she realized that something was wrong with her.

She was the seniors maid. How could she question the senior like this? She quickly apologized, Senior, Im sorry. I

Oh, its nothing. Shes an old friends daughter. Did you find me those craftsmen? Xiao Changtian waved his hand and said indifferently.

He knew that women were always on guard against each other.

Yes.

Mu Jiuhuang replied. After knowing Mu Jiuhuang had broken through to the Greater Vehicle Realm, the few people from the Heavenly-building Sect agreed to build the place.

After all, Mu Jiuhuang had told them that if they came to build the courtyard, they would be able to meet the peerless expert.

But, all they saw was a mortal.

The five of them looked at each other in confusion.

That was all?

Since youre here, lets start the job.

Transform this courtyard according to my blueprint.

Xiao Changtian settled Chu Yiren down in a room. Then, he took a blueprint and handed it to the Heavenly-building Sect members.

I want to build a bamboo forest here. We need to expand the pool and the chicken coop

Xiao Changtian planned carefully. According to his guess, the system would give him more animals. He had to expand the yard and not mix up the lives of the animals.

A budget of ten taels of gold was enough.

The problem was that they might have a conflict with the inn.

Xiao Changtian felt that this matter would be a little challenging to handle when he thought of Reverend Dayangs invincible demeanor.

However, after looking at the animals and thinking about his future path of invincibility, Xiao Changtian still felt that he had to do this.

Jiuer, go to the Dayang Sects inn first and communicate with them, Xiao Changtian instructed Mu Jiuhuang. If it didnt work, he would go himself.

Alright, Mu Jiuhuang nodded.
