When Ji Xiaoman arrived at Xi Shi's villa, Xi Shi was standing in front of a stone table in the courtyard, smiling and fiddling with the small objects on the table.

"Little Xi Shi, what are you doing?"

Ji Xiaoman, curious, took a few steps closer and asked a question.

Startled by the sudden noise, Xi Shi instinctively turned her head to look in the direction of the sound.

Upon seeing that the person who came was Ji Xiaoman, Xi Shi patted the small mound on her chest with lingering fear, her eyes filled with resentment.

"Senior sister, don't you know that people can really scare each other to death?!"

Xi Shi wore a light blue long dress, with a tassel belt tied around her waist. Her figure was slender and graceful, her face exquisite, her features stunning, her skin snow-white, her eyebrows like distant mountains, and her lips red and teeth white.

Her eyelashes were delicate and long, her eyes were full of spirit, her lips were thin and soft, her nose was high and straight, and her earlobes were exquisite.

She's absolutely a stunning beauty!

Xi Shi possessed an ethereal quality; in the prime of her life, she was youthful, beautiful, and pure, making her the dream lover of countless disciples at the Jixia Academy.

"hey-hey………"

"So, what are you doing?"

Ji Xiaoman chuckled and asked curiously, her gaze unconsciously drifting to the pile of small objects that Xi Shi was fiddling with on the table.

"Nothing much..."

"I just bought a batch of goods at the market down the mountain, and I'm figuring out how to sell them..."

"Look, senior sister, isn't this doll cute?"

As she spoke, Xi Shi picked up a small doll and waved it in front of Ji Xiaoman.

"Hmm...pretty cute..."

Ji Xiaoman smiled awkwardly. She and Xi Shi were very good friends, and Ji Xiaoman was naturally aware of Xi Shi's situation.

Xi Shi's original name was Shi Yiguang. She grew up in a wild and unclaimed land. Before Zhuang Zhou brought her back to the academy, she was always wandering around, barely having enough to eat.

Therefore, Xi Shi developed a very greedy personality from a young age and always wanted to earn a lot of money.

In her spare time, she would take Zhong Wuyan down the mountain to tinker with some strange and unusual things and sell them to the disciples of the academy, making a profit from the difference.

Even though she didn't earn much each time, Xi Shi never tired of it.

In her words, nothing is more joyful than watching small amounts of money flow into your pocket!

Over the years, Xi Shi has accumulated a considerable fortune through this method, but she never squanders it. Apart from necessary expenses and cultivation resources, she always saves as much as possible.

Not only is she a little money-grubber, but she's also a miser.

"right!"

"Does Senior Sister think so too?"

"This time we'll definitely be able to sell it for a good price within the academy, after all, there are quite a few easy targets for our Jixia Academy!"

Upon hearing Ji Xiaoman's approval, Xi Shi's eyes lit up, and a cunning smile, like that of a street vendor, appeared on her pretty face as she silently plotted how to price these plush toys.

She dragged Zhong Wuyan to buy goods early in the morning, which took a lot of time and effort. She only just got back now. The purchase price was twenty coins each, so it's reasonable to sell them for one gold coin, right?

"By the way, senior sister, is there something you need from me this time?"

After enjoying her moment, Xi Shi turned her gaze back to Ji Xiaoman. Her beautiful eyes blinked slightly, her long, narrow eyebrows trembled, and she asked a question with curiosity.

...........................

P.S.: I'm asking for flowers, monthly tickets, ratings, and all kinds of data.

058: Understanding the transformations of all things, I myself attain immortality! (Seeking flowers and favorites)

"That's it..."

"The old man told me to take some people to the Lantern Festival held in the Tang Dynasty on the Double Ninth Festival..."

"I just wanted to ask if you'd be interested in coming with me..."

Ji Xiaoman yawned before explaining her purpose.

"The Great Tang Dynasty of the Yellow River and Luo River region, a lantern festival for all nations?"

"Yes, of course I'm going!"

"Chang'an is the most prosperous city in Heluo. I've heard that there are countless cultivators there, and no shortage of wealthy people..."

"If I brought some local specialties from the wilderness with me, I'd make a fortune!"

Upon hearing Ji Xiaoman's words, Xi Shi's eyes lit up, and she nodded in agreement almost without hesitation.

She had heard about the Lantern Festival in Chang'an before; it was a grand event where all the talented young people from across the continent would gather in Chang'an.

She has always been a bit of a party animal, so naturally she wouldn't miss such a grand event; she wanted to broaden her horizons.

Having lived in the land of Zhuolu for so many years and never having been to the land of Heluo, Xi Shi still longed to go there.

Moreover, she might be able to make a fortune this time by leveraging the local specialties of the wilderness!

Just thinking about it filled her with anticipation.

"I'll let you know when it's time to leave..."

Seeing Xi Shi's excited expression, Ji Xiaoman was both amused and exasperated, but didn't say anything more.

She knew that this was just Xi Shi's personality; she was somewhat greedy, but not in a way that made people feel disgusted.

"Senior sister... um..."

"Could we bring Zhong Wuyan along?"

Xi Shi thought for a moment, blinked her beautiful eyes, looked at Ji Xiaoman with her big, watery eyes, and asked in a soft, sweet voice.

Her voice was sweet, clear, and melodious, like a gentle stream flowing through the heart, soothing the restlessness brought on by the sweltering summer heat.

He had a very good relationship with Zhong Wuyan, and she had helped him a lot on a regular basis.

Now that she has this opportunity to broaden her horizons and elevate her perspective, Xi Shi naturally wants to fight for Zhong Wuyan's future.

"Of course you can..."

"Just let her know in a bit..."

"I'll take both of you with me on a trip!"

Ji Xiaoman reached out and pinched Xi Shi's soft, smooth, pink face, and immediately agreed.

Anyway, the old man told her to take the disciples of Jixia Academy with her, and he didn't specify who she should take with her. Isn't it perfect for her to take Xi Shi and Zhong Wuyan with her?

Moreover, with her late-stage Golden Core cultivation, she was more than capable of protecting the two women's safety along the way.

However, just to be on the safe side, Ji Xiaoman decided to break through to the peak of the Golden Core realm before setting off.

For other cultivators, breaking through to a higher realm is an extremely difficult task. The higher one's cultivation level, the more difficult it becomes to improve, with each breakthrough taking years, or even decades.

But for Ji Xiaoman, breaking through to a higher realm is not a difficult thing at all. It's as simple as eating and drinking. So far, she has never felt the kind of difficulty and weakness that the old man mentioned.

After all, she is the number one genius girl in the history of Jixia Academy!

It was Ji Xiaoman who uttered the words, "Understanding the laws of all things, I will attain immortality!"

"Wuhu!"

"Long live Senior Sister!"

...........................

The land is divided into three parts, Jiang County, and the Sun family residence.

Sun Ce strode through the mansion, heading straight for a room in the backyard, looking quite excited.

"Little sister!"

"I have good news!"

After pushing open the wooden door of the weapon-forging room, Sun Ce strode in and found Sun Shangxiang, who was studying weapon-forging techniques.

"What good news?"

"Big brother, you've disturbed my weapon forging again!"

Sun Shangxiang put down her work, her delicate nose wrinkled slightly, and she looked at her good older brother with a resentful expression. She clenched her teeth and her little fists in anger.

It was so close!

Just now, she had a flash of inspiration and found a way to upgrade the cannon from the lower grade of Xuan to the middle grade of Xuan!

But before he could put his plan into action, Sun Ce suddenly barged in, interrupting his thoughts.

In that brief moment of distraction, the fleeting inspiration vanished abruptly.

At this moment, Sun Shangxiang was extremely frustrated.

You should know that this kind of inspiration doesn't come all the time; it's always fleeting.

Last time, it was because her older brother bothered her for no reason. If he wasn't her own brother, even if they weren't born of the same mother, she would have punched him twice already!

I must let my good older brother know why the flowers are so red!

"Ahem... I have two pieces of good news. One is about your marriage, and the other is news from the Tang Dynasty..."

"Which one do you want to hear first?"

Sun Ce naturally noticed his younger sister's extremely resentful gaze, coughed, looked somewhat embarrassed, and asked with a forced smile.

He knew all too well what a fiery temper his younger sister had.

I don't want to hear any of them!

"I've already said it, I will never get married in this lifetime!"

"If you want to get married, go and marry him yourself!"

"If you keep pushing me like this, I'm going to run away from home!"

Sun Shangxiang blushed with anger and stomped her foot to express her dissatisfaction.

Men should be the head of the household when they reach a certain age, and women should marry when they reach a certain age.
