Chapter 1351: Give Half the Treasures to Master
"When Master previously asked me for the apprenticeship gift, it seemed he really liked money. Presumably, he has his reasons and is lacking funds at hand. In that case, for these treasures sent, let's take half and send it to Master."
Upon hearing this, one must know that such an abundant amount of treasures is astronomical, each piece is a priceless treasure, yet Wang Tong wanted Zhuang Xiaoqin to take half and offer it to Lin Chen.
If Lin Chen knew of this, knowing that his disciple had such intentions, he would likely be so overjoyed that he couldn't stop smiling, thinking that he made a very wise decision in taking a disciple this time.
"Master, that's unacceptable. Grandmaster's cultivation is still shallow, and so many exotic treasures are of no use to him. If Master suddenly takes so many treasures, it might impede Grandmaster's cultivation progress, and since these treasures are out of Grandmaster's filial piety, Grandmaster might find it hard to reject." Zhuang Xiaoqin surveyed the various treasures in the room, thought for a moment, and said to Wang Tong.
It should be known that upon hearing Wang Tong wanted to take half of these treasures for Lin Chen, Zhuang Xiaoqin was indeed shocked.
After all, she was already flattered when she was rewarded with a treasured sword, and each of these treasures wasn't inferior to the cyan sword in her hand.
The people who came to congratulate her Master were all important figures of the Yunlong Heavenly Palace, either at the level of Hall Masters or Elders, and the treasures they brought were all extraordinary.
Zhuang Xiaoqin thought that if she took out half of the treasures to offer to Lin Chen, Lin Chen might not be able to bear it.
Although she was warned by Wang Tong to be extremely respectful to Lin Chen, Lin Chen's cultivation was only at the Nirvana Realm Sixth Layer, suddenly getting so many treasures could dazzle him, and also might attract others' attention and suspicion.
"What you say is right, I have indeed been inconsiderate."
Wang Tong, hearing Zhuang Xiaoqin's suggestion, stroked his chin and thought for a moment, finding that Zhuang Xiaoqin's words were quite reasonable.
Lin Chen didn't want to expose his relationship with Wang Tong, so Wang Tong also thought that if he took out half of the treasures for him, Lin Chen might find it hard to refuse, and after accepting them, it might easily draw suspicion.
Therefore, Wang Tong adopted Zhuang Xiaoqin's suggestion and decided not to offer so many treasures.
If Lin Chen knew about this matter and realized that Zhuang Xiaoqin's well-intentioned proposal for him led to a great loss of treasures, Lin Chen might even have the heart to kill Zhuang Xiaoqin.
In Lin Chen's daily cultivation, the treasures were sufficient, but repairing the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron needed astronomical amounts, and the Dragon Fang Dagger was also a gold-swallowing beast, so he wouldn't mind more treasures; he could absorb them all.
"Since Master needs money, in that case, let's not send these treasures, but instead send five million low-grade Spirit Crystals to Master," Wang Tong said thoughtfully, in a calm manner.
To avoid affecting Lin Chen's regular cultivation and drawing suspicion, Wang Tong made this decision.
Lin Chen's expertise in Spiritual Formations was unmatched, but his cultivation was low. If Wang Tong were to give him too much wealth at once, it might adversely affect his cultivation.
Therefore, Wang Tong took out a Space Ring and handed it to Zhuang Xiaoqin, inside were five million low-grade Spirit Crystals.
Thus, due to Zhuang Xiaoqin's suggestion, Lin Chen's possible gain of countless exotic treasures turned into five million low-grade Spirit Crystals!
...
"If Master has nothing else to instruct, this disciple will take her leave first." Zhuang Xiaoqin took the Space Ring with utmost respect and said.
Hearing this, Wang Tong nodded and waved to the two girls, signaling for them to leave.
Thus, Zhuang Xiaoqin and Qiu Yue returned to their residence.
"Senior sister, what should we do? Master actually respects that guy so much. I fear that even if we speak out against his vile conduct and expose his despicable nature, Master would not do anything to him." Back at their residence, Qiu Yue couldn't hold back any longer and voiced her concerns.
"Junior sister, you forgot Master's words just now. In the future, you must still show respect to Grandmaster. Otherwise, if Master finds out and blames us, I won't be able to protect you." Zhuang Xiaoqin looked at Qiu Yue and said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yue sighed, feeling extremely vexed and aggrieved.
"Senior sister, how can you be so calm at this time? Aren't you at all worried?" Qiu Yue looked at Zhuang Xiaoqin's calm demeanor and said anxiously.
"Worried about what?" Zhuang Xiaoqin looked at Qiu Yue, puzzled, and asked.
"Senior sister, you saw today that scoundrel's behavior; he's so lecherous. He already has two beauties by his side and still went to flirt with Junior Sister Wenshan. In the future, he might even set his sights on us."
"Senior sister, you're a super beauty. Aren't you scared?" Qiu Yue looked at Zhuang Xiaoqin, deliberately stretching out her jade hands and making a scary gesture.
"What good does worrying do? It's just adding unnecessary troubles. If he really stretches his demon claw towards us, given his current status, we wouldn't be able to escape no matter what."
"That guy has such high mastery in Spiritual Formations at such a young age, and he's handsome too, his future achievements are limitless. Though he is too indulgent in matters between men and women, a person with strong skills always has their shortcomings; there's no such thing as a flawless person in this world."
"Those Heavenly Prides you've seen, what kind of people are they? How can we possibly know," Zhuang Xiaoqin said calmly.
Hearing this, Qiu Yue couldn't help but admire her senior sister's composure.
"Hmph, that bastard isn't handsome at all; he can't even compare to Young Master Yang from the Yellow Hall." Qiu Yue said casually, a figure involuntarily appearing in her mind.
"Young Master Yang? You're referring to the Young Master Yang who came to see Lin Chen that day?"
"Junior sister, from your tone, you seem quite fond of that Young Master Yang," Zhuang Xiaoqin teased for once, looking at Qiu Yue and speaking calmly.
Hearing this, Qiu Yue's face instantly flushed with embarrassment, blurting out in a moment of panic, but she didn't hide it from her senior sister.
"Yes, I do like that Young Master Yang. Senior sister, don't you think he looks neat and handsome, giving off a very comforting feeling?" Qiu Yue said, her mind immediately picturing Yang Minghui, her eyes involuntarily shining.
"Indeed, that Young Master Yang's beauty is unparalleled in my life, even surpassing ours."
