Chapter 92: Chapter 92: No Need to Struggle Anymore

After a long while.

Xie Jiuniang saw that her father still wore a stern face without a smile, so she half-jokingly said, "Dad, your daughter has super good luck; just upon entering the Secret Realm, I found a safe and rich water area with tons of resources I could gather freely. All these Storage Rings I picked up."

Xie Shen simply listened quietly, still not offering any opinion.

Xie Jiuniang grew anxious and added, "Really, after staying there for a year, I didn’t even get a scratch."

While speaking, she even stretched out her fair and tender little hands, showing them off in front of Xie Shen.

Xie Shen originally did not pay much attention, but upon a look, he was stunned, his eyes half-closed: "Daughter, are you sure you’re not hiding anything from Dad?"

"Nothing much..."

Xie Jiuniang glanced at her father with a guilty conscience.

Inside the Contract Space, Jian Lingyan laughed till he flipped, mocking, "Hahaha, dog owner! You too have this day. Though the hands are fair and tender, they’re a little too perfect. Anyone familiar could see they’re different from before you entered the Secret Realm..."

Xie Jiuniang was vexed.

Why hadn’t she thought of this before.

At last, she hesitantly revealed everything about the Lotus of Nine Orifices and Heart Enlightenment.

The remaining matters were skimmed over in a single sentence.

Like the Chaos Pearl.

Xie Shen held the Chaos Pearl and sighed softly.

He really should not have chosen to go to the Mortal Realm back in the day, leaving his young daughter behind in the family. In just a few years of separation, he had no idea what had happened, but her boldness had now reached no bounds.

Xie Jiuniang set up table and chairs inside the Tortoise Shell and invited her father to sit down.

Xie Shen knew his daughter was still hiding things but did not insist on her spilling them.

"Don’t worry, Dad, look at this?" Xie Jiuniang pointed to the Defense Jade Token at her waist, proudly boasted, "Aren’t I awesome, Dad? A Nascent Soul Elder gave it to me."

"Who was it?" Xie Shen was delighted.

"Elder Chaoyan, at the Nascent Soul Stage," Xie Jiuniang said with beaming eyes and a smile.

"Good! That’s wonderful!"

Xie Shen was ecstatic.

The vast amount of resources he saw earlier hadn’t made him this happy.

Seeing her father finally smile, Xie Jiuniang wiped away the nonexistent cold sweat from her forehead. She had somehow bluffed her way through this ordeal.

Jian Lingyan wondered, muttering, "Just taking a master, what’s there to be so excited about? I haven’t even seen my owner that thrilled."

"What would a sword like you understand?"

Xie Jiuniang stood tall, her little face beaming with pride, "My dad is doting on his daughter. As long as I’ve taken a master, he doesn’t have to worry about me being bullied in the Sect."

Coming back to his senses from the joy, Xie Shen saw his daughter’s smug little face and felt a twinge of sentiment.

Thankfully, her future master would worry about her, so he, an old father, could relax a bit. Given his daughter’s character, it was foreseeable that she would not lead a quiet life in the future.

Xie Shen began helping his daughter organize her stuff.

Starting with the Storage Bag, he went out for a while and brought back a large number of Jade Boxes to store the scattered Spirit Plants.

Xie Jiuniang helped on the side.

"Dad, I owe it to the Little Flying Boat you bought this time, it’s solid for escaping—" Xie Jiuniang realized her slip of the tongue as she spoke.

Xie Shen paused his actions and looked up, asking, "Escaping?"

Xie Jiuniang brought up the Little Flying Boat, intending to recommend that her parents buy one as well, but she accidentally blurted out too much.

Jian Lingyan again somersaulted in the space, rolling with glee.

Xie Jiuniang pretended not to hear him.

Xie Shen glanced at his daughter and said, "The Little Flying Boat wasn’t bought by me; your old man doesn’t have the ability for that."

"Eh? Who bought it then?" Xie Jiuniang was surprised.

Xie Shen said, "It was your grandfather who bought it at an auction."

Upon hearing this.

Xie Jiuniang fell silent. After a while, she pursed her lips and asked, "Was it bought for you, Dad, but you gave it to me instead?"

"No, it was explicitly for you."

Xie Shen did not conceal this matter, "I’ve already reached Foundation Establishment, and I live in the Sect Market; there’s no danger."

"I’m not in danger in the Sect either."

"Perhaps it’s guilt then?"

Xie Shen thought of his daughter losing her chance and felt uneasy. Fortunately, his daughter had now stumbled into fortune herself, achieving an Impurity-Free Body, which was not any less than a Heavenly Spiritual Root.

Xie Jiuniang felt a mixture of emotions.

The Little Flying Boat was a great help in the Secret Realm, and she never thought it was bought by her grandfather; suddenly, it didn’t seem so appealing anymore.

After a moment’s hesitation, Xie Jiuniang took out a bottle of Spiritual Liquid from her Storage Bag, the stopper sealed with a Seal Spirit Talisman.

This bottle didn’t seem like much at first glance.

It was the small bottle commonly used on the market to hold Spiritual Liquid, with a capacity of one jin. She used to use them for her own Spiritual Liquid, didn’t throw the empty bottles away, and this time she had top-notch Spiritual Liquid, which was perfect for reuse.

Xie Jiuniang awkwardly said, "This... take it to Grandfather."

Seeing Xie Shen’s puzzled look, she lifted the Seal Spirit Talisman, and the rich Spiritual Energy immediately overflowed from the bottle mouth.

Upon seeing the milky-white top-notch Spiritual Liquid inside, Xie Shen gasped and quickly resealed the Talisman, shocked he asked, "Daughter, where did this come from?"
