I Can Travel between Two Worlds
Chapter 382 - 95: Returning to Wenda City, Master and Disciples Reunited (Part 3)
Facing the astonishment of the two disciples, Han Jihai waved his hand and said:
"Look at you two, acting like you’ve never seen the world. Don’t tell anyone you’re my, Old Han’s, disciples..."
"Is this little bit of Spirit Stone already making you so upset?"
Han Jihai hesitated for a moment before tossing two Storage Bags over.
Miko and Jing Xiao’er exchanged a glance, then sent their Divine Sense into the bags, their expressions changing dramatically.
"Old man, did you embezzle or take bribes and sell off the Changchun Sect or something?" Miko was a bit stunned.
In each of these two Storage Bags, there were three hundred thousand Spirit Stones.
That’s almost equivalent to Miko and Jing Xiao’er’s entire net worth.
Seeing his two disciples so astonished, Han Jihai looked very pleased with himself.
After finishing that job with Lin Chen, Han Jihai had millions of Spirit Stones in his hands.
Plus, some time ago, Lin Chen gave Old Han over a hundred Thousand-Year Spiritual Peaches...
Han Jihai truly turned into a nouveau riche, almost comparable to a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
Now, seeing his two disciples whom he hadn’t seen in a long time, of course, he had to show off a little.
"Hey, you two... you’ve really suffered outside!"
"From now on, just follow me, Old Han. I guarantee you’ll have all the supplies you need for cultivation!"
Hearing this, Miko and Jing Xiao’er rolled their eyes. Don’t they know what Old Han is capable of?
He’s top-notch at staying alive, but making money...
"Fourth Junior Brother, tell us... how did you guys make money?" Miko asked curiously.
Hearing this, Lin Chen roughly recounted their experience in Cyan Jade Town, and the gains from that job.
Upon hearing this, Miko’s eyes turned red, and she slapped her thigh, exclaiming:
"You robbed a Demon Cultivator! This... how much fine wine can this exchange for?"
Miko looked excited.
Jing Xiao’er and the eldest sister had the same expression.
Seeing this, Lin Chen realized that the two senior brothers and sisters were not living well; their Taoist Robes seemed a bit worn out.
So he asked: "Senior Brother, Senior Sister... these past few years..."
Hearing this, Miko sighed deeply and said:
"Ah, don’t mention it..."
She poured out her grievances and shared the ordeals of the past few years.
Years ago, Miko and Jing Xiao’er, on the orders of Ancestor Changchun, arrived in Wenda City.
Initially, they were ordered to procure some resources in the city.
But later, they received another order from the ancestor to wait for Lin Chen and the others in the city.
Before departing, Ancestor Changchun also gave them over a hundred thousand Spirit Stones for cultivation expenses.
But Miko enjoyed fine wine and couldn’t resist when she saw the city’s exquisite wine.
Compared to the Spirit Wine at Changchun Sect, it was like cat urine...
As the eldest sister would say, the wine in Wenda City had no flaws except for being expensive!
After repeatedly indulging in fine wine, their Spirit Stones were almost all spent.
Seeing that the elder sister was getting into trouble with her drinking, the third senior brother Jing Xiao’er got anxious and spent all the Spirit Stones meant for procuring resources.
He had to find a way to make money...
But his way of making money was, of course, going to the gambling house.
Initially, he won hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones, but never expected to encounter a scam...
He ended up losing everything, nearly selling himself off.
Owing tens of thousands of Spirit Stones, the two had to work in Wenda City.
They became guards at the gambling house, earning Spirit Stones to repay their debts.
Until they heard the news of Lin Chen and others arriving in the city, they took half a day off and rushed over.
After hearing the senior brother’s and sister’s words, Lin Chen sighed deeply and said:
"Ah, Senior Sister, Senior Brother... you’ve really had it tough!"
"Wuwu... Little Chen..."
Hearing this, Miko was once again in tears and hugged him.
Lin Chen’s vision went black...
Mmm, still a familiar size.
"Ahem..."
However, noticing a pair of burning eyes at the side, Lin Chen quickly escaped and said:
"Senior Sister, Senior Brother... let’s eat first!"
Saying this, Lin Chen guiltily glanced at Junior Sister Jiang.
Soon, the food was served.
Seeing the delicious Spirit Stones dishes, Miko and Jing Xiao’er immediately dug in like starved ghosts, eating and drinking heartily.
After a few rounds of drinks, everyone was more or less done eating.
Miko downed a mouthful of wine and, without any restraint, burped and asked:
"Hic~ Master, when are we going back to the Changchun Sect?"
"Wenda City may be nice... but it’s unaffordable! A Golden Core Cultivator... doesn’t have any status in this city!"
Hearing this, Han Jihai didn’t answer but looked at Lin Chen beside him.
Hearing this, Lin Chen also fell silent.
After a long time, he gathered his words and said:
"Actually, before I set off this time, I received a secret mission from the grandmaster!"
