[This is also ch 334 because I messed up the numbering of my chapters earlier on. It is not a repost and it's the start of a new raw chapter.]
“Oh, not much. I just feel that this Xiao Xiao lad is quite peculiar!”
smiled Zhou Jinjiang. He did not share his true feelings.
Cheng Biyuan knew that his daughter possessed the dimension, which
would, in turn, make her seem peculiar to those who didn’t know the truth. He
smiled too and said, “Xiao Xiao has her encounters. I am happy as long as she’s
safe.”
Zhou Jinjiang nodded as though he was still pondering about something.
“My Lord, with regards to building the moat around Qing’an Province, I
feel it’s best if we expand around the original official state. That way it
won’t cost us as much in terms of resources and manpower.”
“About this….”
“We can’t just not do it!” Zhou Jinjiang smiled bitterly, “You were made
Count Zhongyuan by the emperor directly. We can’t deny your new status and a
moat must be built, a moat that belongs to none other than Count Zhongyuan. In
addition, this is not the right location for a nobleman. This location is only
good as the headquarter of a sect.”
He paused at this point and looked at Cheng Biyuan. Smiling, he said,
“You aren’t short on money. C’mon, Lord, nobody will believe that!”
“HO HO HO!” laughed Cheng Biyuan. “You are right, others don’t think
that we will need money. But we need money for everything. Not that mention
that Xiao Xiao needs her mystical stone, when it comes to this, we can’t touch
her resources!”
“That is true!”
Zhou Jinjiang had no idea why Cheng Xiao Xiao need such a large quantity
of mystical stones. But it was sufficient as long as she could continue to
provide what seemed to be an endless supplies of mystical animals and mystical
rice etc, etc.
While the two of them were planning the future direction of the Cheng’s
in the study, Cheng Xiao Xiao, who was finally able to lose her stalker,
summoned little Yuteng back from her play time.
“Oh, so many mystical stones!” Little Yuteng couldn’t help but to
rejoice when she saw the upward of 50,000 or so mystical stone piled into a
small mountain. The ironed arm bear was not shy about grabbing them straight up
with started shoving them into his mouth, making loud crunching noises.
Cheng Xiao Xiao, standing next to it, rolled her eyes incredulously,
“Little bear, how are you just eating them directly?”
“Roar!” responded the ironed arm bear to her question and continued
feasting on the stones as those they were some sort of yummy snacks. Cheng Xiao
Xiao watched on speechlessly.
“Hehe, Young Mistress, don’t worry. The little bear will be fine!”
smiled little Yuteng.
Cheng Xiao Xiao shook her head helplessly and said, “Okay, little
Yuteng, do your thing. What do we do with these?”
Little Yuteng had been fully in charge of the operations of the
dimension; all Cheng Xiao Xiao had to do was to stand by and observe.
“Young Mistress, I don’t know how much more mystical stones will the
crystal fruit tree require. I plan to split up the stones – half to level up
the dimension and the other half for the crystal fruit tree, what do you
think?” Little Yuteng shared her idea.
“Sure! Whatever you say!”
Once she got her confirmation, her little arms started dancing in the
air. A portion of the mystical stones, under the guidance of her arms, started
to swirl. It swirled faster and faster until it became a hurricane.
“ROAARR!!”
The ironed arm bear, who was happily feasting away, was agitated all of
a sudden. All the mystical stones that were in front of him were gone and he
roared ferociously at little Yuteng.
Looking at how clumsy he was, Cheng Xiao Xiao chuckled and said, “Be
patient, little bear. I will bring you some more in a little bit!”
“Roar!”
The ironed arm bear finally calmed down after hearing that there would
be more stones. But it still bore its teeth at little Yuteng to show its
discontent.

"this Xiao Xiao lad" because we all know that she is a lad, not a lass nor even a bit a lady.
ReplyDeletePassive-aggressive much?
DeleteMysterious would be a bit better than peculiar in this case. If my comment is annoying feel free to ignore it.
