Chapter 194 Building Reaction
"You...you can still laugh!"
Lou Xiang paced back and forth in anger, pondering whether to scold or beat his precious daughter.
"Father, why can't I laugh?"
Seeing that Lou Xiang was anxious, Lou Xiyue's originally anxious mood suddenly calmed down a lot.
She picked up the teapot on the table, poured a cup for Lou Xiang, and then poured one for herself.
"Father, have some tea and calm down."
"You still have the mind to drink tea?"
"Of course I'm in the mood for tea!"
Lou Xiang stared at Lou Xiyue for a long time, and seeing that she was only nervous and not flustered, and her eyes were full of joy, he realized that he had been tricked.
"Father, thankfully you withstood the pressure from the four major sects back then, and now this is your reward!"
Lou Xiang quickly realized what was happening.
"You mean this top-grade elixir was given to you by Tu Shan?"
"No, it's for you." Lou Xiyue took a sip of tea and said slowly, "My daughter mentioned to her that it was related to her that we helped her withstand the pressure from the four major sects and prevented any unusual phenomena from occurring."
The man immediately took out 110 top-grade seventh-rank pills and gave them to his daughter.
"Young Master Duo? Say that again?"
Lou Xiang thought he had misheard.
"One hundred and ten, one hundred and ten, did you hear me clearly, Dad?"
"really?"
“Really! But I haven’t finished yet. She took out 110 top-grade pills and gave them to her daughter, telling her that 100 of them were to be sold to the Spirit Treasure Pavilion, and the other 10 were for her and her father separately.”
Lou Xiang picked up the teacup with trembling hands and took a big gulp, as if this could cool down his burning heart.
Lou Xiyue said solemnly, "Father, the pills are all here. I don't want you to talk to the elders about these ten pills."
Looking at the table full of jade vases, Lou Xiang was speechless.
Lou Xiyue waited quietly for Lou Xiang's decision.
Lingbao Pavilion does not only belong to the Louxiang lineage, but also has many other branches.
The head of the Lou family has three opportunities to make the final decision in his life. Most matters are decided by a vote of the elders, with the minority obeying the majority.
An unusual phenomenon can be used to eliminate one's chance of encountering a building.
He felt it was all worth it at that moment.
These are 110 top-grade level 7 stones.
Aside from Tu Shan, he was certain that no other force could produce such a thing.
"Xiyue, you did a great job!"
"As the young master, this is what I should do."
"Since these ten top-grade seventh-tier stones are a gift for you and me, we'll each take half. You can choose five from them, and after you've made your selections, Father will convene an elders' meeting."
"No!" Lou Xiyue hurriedly stopped her: "Father, this matter should not be known by too many people. We must wait a while before discussing it."
Lou Xiang quickly understood Lou Xiyue's intention.
If this meeting is held now, people will soon suspect Tu Shan, who just left.
This could very likely cause trouble for Tu Shan, and might even displease her, making her unwilling to trade with Lingbao Pavilion, or even severing her daughter's personal relationship with her.
As long as her relationship with her daughter remains, even if she doesn't sell the pills to Lingbao Pavilion in the future, as long as she sells them to her daughter, Lou Xiang's lineage can survive forever.
He would never allow anyone to sabotage it. Lou Xiang couldn't help but feel disgusted by the greedy people in his family.
"Okay, Father understands. Father will think it over."
Lou Xiyue had already decided what kind of pills she wanted. She originally thought there would be at most three, but she didn't expect there to be five.
I made a profit!
He took the medicine and stood up, saying, "Father, I'm leaving now!"
"Go!"
Lou Xiang selected the pills he needed and stored the other pills in another storage ring.
After pondering for a long time, he finally spoke: "Uncle Qing, go and secretly invite the Ancestor over!"
"Master, may I ask what this matter is?"
The patriarch of the Lou family is in seclusion in the ancestral land, and only Lou Qing can contact him.
"No, this is of great importance. We must ask the Ancestor to know whether you can tell me."
"Okay, can you tell me if it's a good thing or a bad thing?"
"Great news! This is fantastic news! Please, Uncle Qing, go and invite the Ancestor here as soon as possible."
Lou Qing didn't waste any time and disappeared in front of Lou Xiang.
Fifteen minutes later, Lou Qing appeared with a middle-aged woman.
"Greetings, Ancestor!"
That's right, this middle-aged woman is Lou Lan, the ancestor of the Lou family, in the late stage of the Fusion Realm.
"Speak! What's the rush you're taking me for?"
Lou Xiang looked at Lou Qing.
"There's nothing he can't hear, just tell him!"
"This story goes back two years... To thank my daughter and me, she sent one hundred top-grade seventh-rank pills to our Lingbao Pavilion."
All spirit stones entering and leaving the Lingbao Pavilion are recorded, and the origins of these pills and spirit stones must be clearly stated.
"Are you telling the truth?"
Loulan stared intently at Louxiang, as if she would smash the liar to pieces if he denied it.
Lou Qing now understood why Lou Xiyue thought he had no right to listen, because anyone who heard it would be tempted by greed.
In other words, the Lou family father and daughter are upright people, and no one would suspect anything even if fifty pills were removed.
"Ancestor, please look!"
Lou Xiang placed the storage ring on the table.
Loulan scanned the storage ring with his divine sense and found a hundred jade bottles inside.
He took out a jade bottle and opened it.
"It's a seventh-grade top-quality Bone Forging Pill."
Lou Qing couldn't help but speak up. As an auctioneer, he was more perceptive about treasures than the average person.
Loulan nodded, his joy barely concealed.
"This person is someone you should befriend, not someone you should offend."
"Yes, Ancestor!"
"You called me here not only to tell me about these pills, but also to ask me what I should do with them?"
"Yes!"
"This matter doesn't need to go through the elders' council; I'll make the decision."
You take seven, and Xiyue takes three. You are both meritorious contributors, and this is what you deserve.
As for the remaining ninety stones, each elder in the Integration stage receives five, each elder in the Nascent Soul stage receives two, and each elder in the Core Formation stage receives one.
Our Lou family has two members in the Integration Stage, seven in the Nascent Soul Stage, and fourteen in the Core Formation Stage.
Two will be auctioned off, and the remaining fifty will stay with me as future rewards.
Lou Xiang was surprised by this unexpected joy.
Lou Qing reminded him: "Don't we need to discuss this with Old Ancestor Yi?"
"No need. He doesn't care about worldly affairs. I'll tell him when the time comes. Lou Qing, in three months, have them go to the ancestral hall!"
"Yes!"
"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now!"
"Respectfully bidding farewell to the Ancestor!"
After seeing Loulan off, the two exchanged a glance and saw joy in each other's eyes.
"It seems that our Lingbao Pavilion is going to reach a higher level because of Xiyue."
Lou Xiang humbly replied, "Uncle Lou, you think too highly of her. She is still just a maid and has much to learn. I hope Uncle Qing will give her guidance in the future."
"As long as she's willing to ask this old geezer of mine."
“Yes, Xiyue is definitely willing. I’ll trouble Uncle Qing then.”
The two exchanged a few more words before Lou Qing left.
After Lou Xiang and the others left, he gave instructions and activated the formation.
He swallowed a seventh-grade top-quality Bone Forging Pill.
Soon, his bones felt as if they had been smashed to pieces, and the pain was unbearable, so he couldn't help but cry out in agony.
Tu Shan left the auction, and Yu Ronglu didn't linger for a moment, setting off once again.
"Rong Lu, would you like to buy some top-grade pills?"
"want!"
"How much do you want?"
Can I pay on credit?
"can!"
"Then give me twenty of each variety."
"Here, a total of four hundred, which is one thousand two hundred high-grade spirit stones."
"Alright! I'll pay you back when I have spirit stones."
