Supreme Emptiness-Chapter 39: The City Lord’s Daughter
At the same time.
Jiang Fan placed twenty low-grade Pifu Pills, which he had just refined, in front of Chen Silin.
"I kept some for myself, you take these and sell them."
Chen Silin was overjoyed.
The Pifu Pills were even more enticing than the top-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid, after all, many people had cultivated their entire lives and managed to reach the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation, but suffered from the lack of Pifu Pills.
Now that there was one lying right in front of them, they were willing to pay any price.
Because once one achieved Foundation Establishment, their status would change dramatically.
And with a total of twenty pills, selling one a day could easily maintain the Chen family’s reputation.
"How should I give you the money then? Also, the Qi Cultivation Liquid from earlier has sold out, and I owe you the money for that too."
Chen Silin bent down to get the money.
Jiang Fan waved his hand, "No need for now, just keep it with you."
Feeling that it was unsafe to stay at the Chen family’s place for too long, he hurriedly took his leave.
Chen Silin, however, felt quite delighted inside, gazing at Jiang Fan’s departing figure with a murmured, "So, he trusts me that much, huh."
Soon after Jiang Fan left.
Chen Zhengdao and Liu Qingxian descended aboard a giant eagle.
They did not bother to hide anymore, directly asking, "Where is that three-star Soul Master?"
Chen Silin answered honestly, "He just left."
Chen Zhengdao noticed the Pifu Pills beside her and immediately stepped forward to pick up a vial and smelled it.
"Pifu Pills!" His pupils contracted, "The quality is excellent, indeed the work of a three-star Soul Master!"
Liu Qingxian was about to lose her temper, stomping her foot, "How can it be so coincidental?"
"He came right after we left, and he left just as we arrived?"
"Who exactly is spying on whom here?"
With her stomp, the giant eagle underneath felt the pain and turned its head, revealing innocent watery eyes.
Why don’t you get mad at that three-star Soul Master?
Why are you stomping on me?
I am just a passerby bird.
Looking at the Green Cloud Sect Master’s daughter, who was angry to the point of losing her cool, Chen Silin couldn’t help but worry for Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan, oh Jiang Fan, don’t get caught by this young miss, or she will surely teach you a lesson.
Chen Zhengdao had also run out of patience, saying, "We can only say that our luck is too bad!"
"We missed the prodigy, and now we missed the three-star Soul Master."
"How about this, I’ll stay here, and you go guard the Dragon-Rising Path."
"We should be able to catch one of them."
Liu Qingxian regretted deeply.
If she had stayed just now, she certainly could have caught the three-star Soul Master.
So she agreed immediately, and the two of them again flew up into the sky on the giant eagle.
Leaving Chen Silin with a sweaty brow.
Fine, they’re monitoring us openly now.
Back at the Xu Mansion.
Jiang Fan, having just experienced a big battle, felt the spiritual power in his body solidifying, quickly swallowed a vial of top-grade Qi Cultivation Liquid, and began to sit cross-legged in meditation.
Soon after.
His body shook, and a rich spiritual power overflowed from his body.
He had astonishingly achieved the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation!
Feeling the spiritual power in his body twice as dense, Jiang Fan felt confident that he could spar a few rounds with a Foundation Establishment projection of the eleventh layer.
"Young Master Jiang, Young Master Jiang!" Suddenly, there was an urgent knocking on the door from the housekeeper outside.
Jiang Fan opened the door curiously, looking at the panting Housekeeper Zhang and writing in surprise, "What happened?"
Housekeeper Zhang didn’t even catch his breath, saying, "The city lord… the city lord’s daughter, Miss Ye Qingxue, has come for a visit."
Ye Qingxue?
Wasn’t she Xu Yining’s close friend?
Three years ago, she went elsewhere for further studies, and now she suddenly came to the Xu family, she must be looking for Xu Yining.
Jiang Fan wrote, "Has Xu Yining not returned yet?"
Housekeeper Zhang anxiously said, "Not only has the young miss not returned, but the family head and madam, and the clan members have also gone outside to inquire about the Blood Bat Palace, no one is home, so we have to ask you to entertain them."
No wonder they found Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan felt a bit unwilling.
In his memory, Ye Qingxue, influenced by Xu Yining, didn’t have a good impression of him either.
She would always give him a cold shoulder whenever they met, never with a pleasant expression.
But the Xu family truly had no one left.
No choice, he had to brace himself and go to the main hall.
Ye Qingxue, dressed in a silk moon-white long robe, with wide sleeves embroidered with delicate golden-thread butterflies, had her glossy black hair gracefully draped behind her.
Her slender and graceful figure, vaguely noticeable under the soft fabric, stirred one’s imagination.
A fair and rosy face, cold and noble.
When she saw it was Jiang Fan who came, she showed a puzzled expression, "Who are you?"

After all, she seldom saw Jiang Fan, and she had been away for three years now.
Jiang Fan’s appearance had undergone some changes.
He picked up the pen and started writing swiftly.
Seeing him pick up the pen, Ye Qingxue realized, "No need to write, you’re Jiang Fan, the mute."
Although they rarely met, Jiang Fan’s name had appeared in her ears countless times.
Almost every time they met, Xu Yining would complain about Jiang Fan, complaining that he was a mute, complaining he had no Spirit Root, complaining he shamelessly wanted to marry her.
Ye Qingxue had heard it so much that her ears almost got calluses.
She had already formed a pre-existing bad impression of this person she had never encountered.
Jiang Fan quickly finished writing a line, "Xu Yining is at the Dragon-Rising Path, and Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu are also busy outside."
"I’ll have someone make tea for you."
So Xu Yining was not at home, Ye Qingxue felt disappointed, standing up, "There’s no need."
"When Xu Yining returns, tell her to come to the City Lord Mansion to find me, I need her help."
Jiang Fan nodded.
Breathing a slight sigh of relief, he didn’t know how to entertain Xu Yining’s close friend.
Being too indifferent or too enthusiastic didn’t seem appropriate.
At this moment.
Housekeeper Zhang suddenly ran back in a panic, a gash on his forehead, bleeding profusely.
"Young Master Jiang, it’s bad! The Qin Family Head brought his clan into our house, beating people and taking things at will!"
"You should go and take a look!"
What?
Jiang Fan was shocked.
The Qin Family Head’s arrival, no doubt, was to demand the thirty thousand taels of silver Lu Zheng owed.
But if he wanted money, why would he beat people?
He grabbed the wooden sword on the table, bowed to Ye Qingxue, and rushed to the front yard.
Ye Qingxue shook her head slightly, "Xu Yining was right, this Jiang Fan is not only mute but also a blockhead, not at all bright."
"The Qin family came with their whole clan, what can he do without any cultivation? Just offering himself up?"
"The immediate priority is to quickly inform the Xu clan members to return."
"Or if he was a little smarter, he could have asked me for help."
With a sigh, she helplessly moved her lotus-like steps, "Fine, since I’m here, I’ll help Xu Yining this time."
Front yard.
The Young Master of the Qin family snatched a three-year-old Xu family child from the hands of an old maidservant.
Ignoring the child’s terrified flailing and crying, he grabbed one of the child’s legs and dangled him upside down in the air, disdainfully saying, "The scum of the Xu family, all the same, so annoying to look at."
Then, he casually threw the child into a corner.
And over there, it happened to be where the servants were boiling water!
The old maidservant and maids screamed in fright and rushed to save him, but they were too far away and were too late.
Jiang Fan arrived just in time to see this scene.
His pupils contracted instantly!
