Chapter 161: 161
The return of Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan caused quite a shock in the Desert City.
People in the Desert City had a dubious attitude about the rumors that Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan had both become Foundation Building cultivators.
Along with the return of Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan, all the big families in Desert City adopted a cautious attitude for a while. For a time, the security of the Desert city became extremely good.
Xiao Jingting checked Xiao Linfeng’s injury and refined several pills for him, letting Xiao Linfeng slowly recover.
After advancing to Foundation Building, Xiao Jingting consciously broadened his vision. Xiao Linfeng, who had once given him a sense of pressure, became ordinary in Xiao Jingting’s eyes. Xiao Linfeng’s injuries were serious, but for Xiao Jingting, they were nothing.
“Jingting, I didn’t expect that you could actually advance to Foundation Building.” Wang Lu couldn’t help but say with great emotion.
Wang Lu didn’t have high expectations for her youngest son. She only wanted him to advance to the sixth level of Qi Practice and peacefully become an elder in the family. It never occurred to her that her eldest son, whom she favored the most, would become a waste while her youngest would become a Foundation Building cultivator.
“Jingting, how is that old man of the Pei family? According to Xu Muan, that person’s cultivation has fallen to the ninth level of Qi Practice, ” Wang Lu asked.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes!”
A cold light flashed through Wang Lu’s eyes. Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan went to the Pei house and after this, the old master of Pei family went into seclusion. Why seclusion? It looked like his cultivation had fallen and he did not dare to see people anymore. The Pei family had many enemies, so as long as the news about the Pei family head’s realm fall spread, many people naturally would want to settle scores with the Pei family.
Xiao Jingting looked at Wang Lu and said, “Mother, are you all right?”
Wang Lu shook her head and said, “Nothing. You were not here. During this time, your father and mother have been bullied, and your grandfather… Just forget it.”
Xiao Jingting patted Wang Lu on the shoulder and said, “Mother, don’t worry. I have come back.”
“How is your father?” Wang Lu asked.
“Father has a good foundation. He should be able to consolidate his cultivation in two days,” Xiao Jingting said.
Wang Lu nodded and said, “I heard that you gave your second brother, quite a few Nourishing Yuan Pills?”
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes! Mother, I’ve prepared your share too. Here it is.”
Wang Lu took the pill bottle, and couldn’t help but feel a little excited. Wang Lu never expected that she would actually have a day when she could lean on her own son.
“Jingting, have you gone to see your big brother?” Wang Lu asked.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “I’ve seen him, but eldest brother doesn’t seem willing to pay attention to me.” Xiao Qingyan ignored him and Xiao Jingting naturally would not stick his hot face to other person’s cold ass.
Probably because she knew Xiao Qingyan’s temper, Wang Lu’s face turned pale. She said in some embarrassment, “Your big brother is like this, a bit stubborn but he is still your elder brother after all. Moreover, his injury this time had also some relations with you. If you can help, give him a hand. Your eldest brother and second brother are all your brothers, do not favor one over another!”
Xiao Jingting nodded and said faintly, “If the eldest brother asks me for help, I will try my best.”
Xiao Jingting secretly curled his lips and thought: This guy Xiao Qingyan still puts on airs. But he can put on airs too. He is now a Foundation Building cultivator, so he will not go beg him. After all, he is not the one who is injured, nor the one who needs treatment.

Wang Lu looked at Xiao Jingting, nodded and said, “Okay.”
Xiao Jingting thought that he would leave the Desert city sooner or later. But before leaving, it would be best for the Xiao family to produce another Foundation Building cultivator so when he left, if they encountered some emergency, they would not end up like this time, defenseless.
…………
Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan were walking down the street.
“Do you want to open a pill store?” Xu Muan asked.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes! We need a large amount of spirit stones, and selling pills is the quickest way.”
Xu Muan nodded and said, “Yes, but do you want to open a pill store in Desert City?”
“Yes!” Xiao Jingting said.
“Isn’t the Desert City a little too small?” Xu Muan asked.
Xiao Jingting shook his head and said, “What are you afraid of? Fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. As long as the things are good, people will naturally come.”
Originally, he and Xu Muan were both at Qi Practice realm, so they didn’t dare to take out some precious pills. But now it was different. He and Xu Muan were both at Foundation Building, so if someone came to make trouble, they would be strong enough to protect themselves.
When people in Desert City saw Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan, their expressions were a bit strange. The two of them broke into the Pei family and beat up the Pei family’s Foundation Building cultivator, the news spread like wildfire. People in the Desert City, although some were suspicious, no one wanted to challenge them.
Zhou Kanghe stood in front of the store, looking at Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan thoughtfully.
“Brother, what do you think? What is the cultivation of Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan?” Zhou Kangqi asked.
Zhou Kanghe shook his head and said “I can’t see.”
He couldn’t see other person’s level, but he felt an unfathomable aura from the other person. He only felt this type of aura from the Foundation Building teacher in the Academy. These two people really seemed to have advanced to Foundation Building.
Xiao Jingting had already noticed Zhou Kanghe a long time ago. When Xiao Jingting first arrived in Desert City, Zhou Kanghe was the first genius in Desert city and was very famous. But now, Xiao Jingting had no feelings toward Zhou Kanghe. After his strength improved, his horizons also broadened. Xiao Jingting thought: It is not surprising he doesn’t have feelings for an ant that could be killed with one move of sword.
