Chapter 171: Chapter 167: Dreams Have Everything

Xuanyuan Que directly picked up Ruo Xuan’s string of beads, and when he went to take the gold lock, he pulled out a clean handkerchief to wrap around his hand before touching it.

Although Yang Qiqi was young, she could tell that Xuanyuan Que was using a handkerchief to touch her gold lock because he disdained it!

But Yang Qiqi had misunderstood; Xuanyuan Que simply disliked touching things with other people’s scents on them, especially those of people he disliked. Now that he had lost his spiritual power and couldn’t use spells to remove the scent, this was the only way he could manage.

Feeling insulted like never before, Yang Qiqi’s eyes reddened with anger, and she said, "That’s my gold lock! And that string of beads, I won it! I just won the shuttlecock kicking game, so the string of beads is mine! I won it from that idiot Ruo Xuan’s hands!"

Zhang Lei couldn’t help but scold, "You’re talking nonsense! If your brother hadn’t pushed Xuanbao, he would still be kicking the shuttlecock now."

Zhang Rui: "Liar! Just now your shuttlecock was about to drop to the ground. It was Xuanbao who caught it for you and kicked it back to you! Otherwise, you would have lost long ago! The competition was rightly won by Xuanbao!"

Zhang Mei: "Not admitting defeat! Toad!"

Xuanyuan Que, although he had arrived a step late and hadn’t seen the situation, gave Yang Qiqi a faint glance, "Xuanbao could not possibly have lost. And..."

Xuanyuan Que paused, thinking about what mortals would say when making a threat, then continued lightly, "If you dare to call her an ’idiot’ again, I will have someone cut off your tongue. After all, if you don’t even know how to address someone properly, why would you need a tongue?"

The aura of the War God of the Ninth Heaven, even without unleashing any power, just a faint glance from him, was enough to make Yang Qiqi’s knees go weak, and she fell to the ground. Her eyes were full of terror, her body shook uncontrollably, sweating coldly, and the color drained from her face, leaving it pale as paper.

After Xuanyuan Que issued his threat, he directly walked past her to Ruo Xuan’s side, took her hand, and with an expressionless face, slipped the string of jade beads back onto her wrist: "Don’t take it off again!"

If she hadn’t taken off the string of beads, she wouldn’t have scratched her forehead just now.

Each bead on the string was enchanted with a spell, which could protect her from harm when it mattered most.

Ruo Xuan touched the string of beads and nodded obediently. She then took the gold lock from his hand and said to her own father, "Dad, take this gold lock and have it made into some gold ingots, so it’s convenient to carry and use to buy things."

"Sure," Ruo Shui had no objections.

Seeing her daughter’s gold lock being taken away, Hen Lan became anxious. That was her daughter’s longevity lock given at her one-month celebration. She said urgently, "Madam Feng, you are the referee. Wasn’t it my daughter Qiqi who won just now?"

Everyone looked at Madam Feng.

Madam Liu: "You’ve won ignorantly!"

Madam Feng was in a dilemma. The Yang Family was wealthy, and she did not want to offend Hen Lan.

However, the Ruo Family’s girl had indeed been pushed by the Yang family’s boy and fallen, losing the match. So many people were watching; she couldn’t speak against her conscience, outright helping Hen Lan!

Moreover, Madam Feng was always tactful and wouldn’t offend anyone so blatantly. After thinking for a moment, she said, "The result of the competition has not been finalized yet. Since there is a dispute on both sides, how about another round? What does everyone think?"

She asked the other ladies in the courtyard.

No one wanted to offend others without cause, which was normal reasoning. Therefore, everyone agreed that it was a good idea.

Ruo Xuan: "Okay!"

She still wanted to play.

Yang Qiqi already knew that Ruo Xuan was better than her, so she refused to compete: "This isn’t fair. I obviously won just now; why should we compete again? I’m tired; I cannot compete anymore!"

Hen Lan: "Right, too tired, it affects performance. Let’s not compete! Forget it, let’s just consider the previous round as kids playing, with no winners or losers. Let the prizes go back to their respective owners. That would be fair!"

Hen Lan knew that if they competed again, her daughter was sure to lose!

She was originally counting on Madam Feng to side with her, but now that she was unreliable, Hen Lan had to sacrifice a pawn to save the king.

No matter what, she had to get her daughter’s longevity gold lock back!

Xuanyuan Que said indifferently, "If you feel it’s unfair, go to the government. The government will grant you justice."

Ruo Shui nodded, "That’s right! If it’s unfair, report it to the government."

After saying that, he took his daughter inside to bandage the wound, not having time to tangle with them.

Madam Liu looked at Hen Lan: "Report it then, we’ll accompany you."

After finishing her statement, she hurriedly called the children inside as well.

Hen Lan’s face turned a shade of green with anger!

"Report to the authorities, where can you possibly report on such a festive occasion?"

"It’s simply intolerable! If we’re to report, then we report. If we don’t, they’ll think the Yang Family is without support."

"Enough! Do you still think of reporting to the authorities? Isn’t it shameful enough for you?" Yang Qixiang’s face was ashen.

He was to participate in the autumn imperial examinations this year, did she not know how important his reputation was?

Hen Lan opened her mouth but, in the end, said no more about reporting to the authorities.

Hen Lan also knew in her heart that reporting to the authorities would not result in their side winning, and it would impact her husband’s reputation as well.

Yang Qixiang managed to get up, feeling ashamed, and gave Hen Lan a glare: "Instead of idling around, stop causing these embarrassing situations!"

After saying that, he bore the pain and left the Academy immediately, not even staying for a meal at his father-in-law’s home.

During such a festive period, he felt nothing but ill-fortune!

Hen Lan felt incredibly wronged, watching his back as he left without looking back, her eyes reddening.

Inside the room, Madam Liu finished bandaging Ruo Xuan’s wound as Master Liu held a basin of water with some pomelo leaves floating on top.

He said to Madam Liu, "Wash Xuanbao’s hands to dispel the bad luck. It’s such a festive time; we can’t let bad luck linger. Wash your hands clean before we start the meal."

Madam Liu carefully washed Xuanbao’s hands and then asked Xuanyuan Que, "Young master, what brings you here? Did Grandmother Xuanyuan come too?"

Xuanyuan Que replied indifferently, "Old Master Gu came to the Academy to visit an old friend. I entered the city with him. Now that Sister Xuanbao is alright, I should leave as well not to make Old Master Gu look for me."

Madam Liu asked, "Where is Shopkeeper Gu? Should we invite him to have a meal here before heading back to the village together?"

Xuanyuan Que replied, "No need, we will have our meal back at the manor; grandmother is waiting."

Ruo Xuan still had questions for the Divine Lord Xuanyuan and quickly said, "Mother, I’ll accompany Brother Xuanyuan out."

She hurriedly pulled Xuanyuan Que outside and then asked, "Brother Xuanyuan, when you used the leaves to harm someone just now, weren’t you afraid of being punished by the Heavenly Dao?"

Xuanyuan Que replied, "I used inner strength, not Immortal Technique."

Ruo Xuan exclaimed in surprise, "So inner strength can be that powerful?"

She decided then and there to diligently practice her internal strength!

"The deeper the inner strength, the more powerful it is. I’m leaving now; you should go back inside."

"Brother Xuanyuan, did you just teleport here? Are you also going to teleport back?"

The Divine Lord Xuanyuan, worthy of the title, was even capable of using teleportation, an Immortal Technique that consumed a great deal of spiritual power.

Her gaze unconsciously fell on his lower abdomen: just how much spiritual power had the Divine Lord Xuanyuan accumulated in his dantian?

Xuanyuan Que turned to leave: "No, it was a magic artifact, and I don’t possess much spiritual power."

Ruo Xuan’s eyes lit up: "Do you have many teleportation magic artifacts?"

Otherwise, why would he be so extravagant as to use a teleportation magic artifact just to enter the city?

It was far too extravagant!

Such magic artifacts should be reserved for life-and-death moments.

"Brother Xuanyuan, if you have many, could you give me two?"

If it weren’t for her casually taking off the bracelet, would he have used that magic artifact? Xuanyuan Que replied irritably, "Go to bed early tonight."

Having said that, he lifted his foot and walked away.

Little Xuanhua, with her lack of experience in the mortal world, watched his departing figure, puzzled. Why should she go to sleep early tonight?

Could it be that the Divine Lord Xuanyuan would secretly send her a magic artifact while she slept?
