Chapter 2951: Punishment


    “Don’t worry!” she said as she leaned into his embrace and wrapped her arm around his waist. “I handle things in a measured manner, so you cultivate in seclusion without worry. I can deal with everything that is going on right now, but, there are many strong exponents above the Celestial level in this ce. We must make a breakthrough quickly and have a certain level of strength in our grasp.”


    “I believe I won’t be able to break through in a short period of time, so I’ll start refining some medicinal pills while you handle the breakthrough. I still have you if there’s anything I can’t handle in the future!”


    She chuckled and gazed upwards at him. With her hands circling his neck, she looked up and bit him on the chin, joking, “Otherwise, since I am so beautiful and outstanding, what to do if someone even more powerful takes a fancy to me?”


    When Xuanyuan Mo Ze got a bite on the chin and heard herugh, he said, “No, if someone dares to think about you, I won’t let him go!” As soon as he said this, he bent over and kissed her lips.


    Many forces received the news that night.


    At the Jiang manor, Patriarch Jiang red at the three people standing in the hall and spoke in a gloomy tone. “So the person who won your ten spirit herbs aged thousand-year-old, two saint-level artifacts, and three hundred thousand rock crystals only arrived in Cardinal Point City two days ago?”


    The three men stood beneath, unable to even raise their heads. “Yes, ording to the information gleaned from our inquiries, as soon as they arrived in the city, they settled in the area where we are, and their home was located on the best terrain.”


    “What about other things, like where they came from?” Patriarch Jiang inquired in a low tone.


    “All we know is that the Shao family bought the house for them, but we don’t know anything else.” They lowered their heads slightly after responding.


    Patriarch Jiang narrowed his eyes. “How is it possible for a simple woman to possess a super sacred beast and three sixth-grade Breakthrough Pills? Haha, as long as the news spreads, many people will keep an eye on her even if we do note to her door. I’m curious to see how she handles it on her own when the plunderers arrive!”


    He turned to face the three people standing in the hall and said quietly, “Three hundred rock crystals, ten spirit herbs aged thousand-year-old, and two saint-level artifacts are not insignificant sums in any n. How dare you bet on these things without even trying to find out about her background! Each of you is a moron!”


    “Patriarch, please calm your anger, and we, we knew we were wrong.” They knelt down as soon as they heard the patriarch yell angrily.


    “Humph! Can those things be brought back if you know that you’re wrong?” He snorted coldly, staring at them. “Go to the penalty hall and take the punishment yourself!”


    “Patriarch!”


    The three men let out a cry of surprise and looked up at him. “Patriarch, please show mercy!” After entering the penalty hall, it was likely that they would have wasted half of their lives by the time they got out. This, this…


    “I’m not sure what will happen next time if you don’t remember this lesson!” Patriarch Jiang said while staring at them. “The punishment this time is to remind you that you should always think twice before acting! You must know that we are one of the eight most influential families in Cardinal Point City. Other ns are watching for the slightest sign of trouble and the families below us would rece us if it urred. What you do outside represents not only yourself but also our entire Jiang family!”


    Hearing this, the three men’s lips trembled and they couldn’t say anything.
