Yin Dongnan knew that after he had beaten Guan Yue's Father like that, Guan Yue would definitely not let him go. He had completely lost the desire to live and was ready to face death. However, he truly did not want Guan Yue to harm his family. His parents, sisters, uncles, aunts, and cousins had all watched him grow up, and they had treated him well.
Thinking about this, he put himself in Guan Yue's shoes and realized how cruel it was to harm Guan Yue's Father. He had actually done it and felt justified at the time because when Guan Songtao refused to answer his questions, he had broken three of his ribs with a single blow.
If someone broke three of his father's ribs, wouldn't he also fight back with all his might? These simple truths only occurred to Yin Dongnan after he was captured. When he was free, he only thought about becoming stronger, standing out, and pursuing personal gain without considering others' feelings.
So he spoke up: "Stop talking nonsense. You can kill me if you want. I beg you to spare my family; they are innocent."
Jin Xi immediately responded, "Is Guan Yue's Father guilty? Is Guan Yue guilty? Why didn't you turn into a pig back then? Only a pig would think like that."
At that moment, Gao Yuxin's voice came through: "Jin Xi, Senior Sister, have them write down in detail how they colluded with Fire Red Girl, Hu Hui. The more detailed, the better; we can use it."
Jin Xi was a divine beast with a particularly developed Divine Sense system; she could hear Gao Yuxin deliberately speaking to her. So she asked, "You must be the fifth junior sister Gao Yuxin whom the master praised for her intelligence?"
"Yes, Senior Sister Si, I've come to greet you," Gao Yuxin sweetly greeted Jin Xi. She knew she would rely on Jin Xi a lot in the future and wanted to build a good relationship with her now.
Jin Xi immediately asked, "Junior Sister, when can you come out? I could use a junior sister to command."
Hearing this from Jin Xi left Gao Yuxin speechless; it turned out she was thinking about commanding her.
"I don't know. I have to wait until Senior Brother Guan Yue arrives at the Eternal Realm and the Primordial Infant appears before I can go out." Gao Yuxin said this hoping to leverage Jin Xi's power to help Guan Yue break through to the Eternal Realm sooner.
As expected, Jin Xi quickly replied, "What does that matter? Senior Brother is already in the Miraculous Realm. If I give him another boost, he will soon break through to the Eternal Realm. Haha, then I'll have a little junior sister to command."
Gao Yuxin sneered inwardly: "With your intelligence, you think you can command me? Dream on."
But she said aloud, "Senior Sister, I also want to come out soon to hear your teachings in person; however, I can't get out. Please forgive me."
"I'm going to find Senior Brother now and help him reach the Eternal Realm sooner," Jin Xi said as she prepared to look for Guan Yue. Gao Yuxin quickly interjected, "No, no! Senior Brother is currently healing his father; don't disturb him right now."
"Where are you now?" Jin Xi asked.
"I am on Guan Yue, but my Divine Sense has already reached three thousand miles away, so I can talk to you," Gao Yuxin explained to Jin Xi.
Jin Xi then happily exclaimed, "Junior Sister, you are amazing. You are already so powerful even before becoming human. Once you come out, we must have a good sparring session together to help each other improve."
Gao Yuxin certainly understood Jin Xi's thoughts, wanting to wait until she could come out and easily defeat her.
"Hmph, who knows who will be the one getting defeated then!" Gao Yuxin secretly scoffed.
The two of them exchanged ideas and came up with increasingly ruthless strategies to deal with Miao Fang and Yin Dongnan.
When it came to being ruthless, Gao Yuxin was much more formidable than Jin Xi.
For the past few days, Guan Yue had been treating her father's injuries. She first needed to ensure that he was no longer in pain before figuring out how to restore his health. Since her father had no cultivation, it would take time. She placed him in the Sky-Sealing Tower, building a few rooms near the river inside the tower, preparing to let more people stay there. This way, she could accompany her father and also take care of the medicinal herbs inside.
If her father was interested, he could also learn about alchemy.
In a few days, they would need to intercept the Regretless Sage, so it was crucial to stabilize her father's condition during this time. Guan Yue had been asking Gao Yuxin many questions lately; she could now be considered an expert in medicine and was helping treat her father's illness. It seemed she should also have some knowledge about medicine herself. Relying solely on Gao Yuxin for problems wouldn't be right.
Gao Yuxin used the precious medicinal herbs from the Sky-Sealing Tower to treat Guan Songtao. Of course, this needed to be coordinated through Jin Xi.
Under the careful medical attention of Gao Yuxin and Jin Xi, Guan Songtao was completely free of pain. When he seriously looked at Guan Yue, he noticed that she really resembled him a bit. Although they had no blood relation, this discovery still brought him great comfort.
"Son, you are my son. Having you in this life is enough! However, I still miss your mother, my goddess!" Guan Songtao silently told himself. Yes, he would never forget Jasmine, that incredibly beautiful, kind-hearted, and majestic woman.
At this moment, Guan Yue was helping Guan Songtao recover his bones; restoring bones was a lengthy process that required patience. But who could take care of him? He was alone in the Sky-Sealing Tower, which made Guan Yue uneasy.
Currently, Jin Xi seemed like the most suitable choice, but she was clumsy and rough around the edges, so Guan Yue felt quite uneasy about it. She needed someone meticulous and gentle for this task.
Thus, Guan Yue had no choice but to seek help from Ouyang Xinyi, as there were many people there.
Upon arriving at the Heavenly Intent Auction House, she found Ouyang Xinyi. After explaining her purpose, Ouyang Xinyi smiled and said, "You came to the right person. I happen to have a pair of sisters here who were just rescued from a group of demons. They have no cultivation but are very well-behaved and clean-looking; why not use them?"
Then, Ouyang Xinyi called two girls into the room for Guan Yue to choose from. Ouyang Xinyi knew that Guan Yue would be very cautious about this selection, as it was to serve his father, a serious matter.
The two girls were about fifteen or sixteen years old, both around one meter sixty tall, dressed very simply but quite clean, and they were not good at speaking. After they arrived, they kept their heads down, appearing very timid.
Guan Yue asked them their names, where they were from, and why they had been captured by others.
The younger girl spoke up, "We are twins. My sister's name is Zhang Yi, and I am Zhang Min. We are from the Dawson Empire's Zhang Family."
Hearing this, Guan Yue's heart stirred: "Dawson Empire's Zhang Family? Is it the same Zhang Family that follows the Lahong Great Sage?"
So he immediately asked, "Where is your Zhang Family located? Who is your family head?"
"Our family is in the New City County of Dawson Empire. The family head is Zhang Qiankun."
"What is the relationship between Zhang Shenkun and you?" Guan Yue pressed on.
The girl weakly replied, "He is our elder family head; he sent people to subjugate our Zhang Family. Our Zhang Family used to be a branch of that Zhang Family, but now we plan to disobey their management and establish our own household, so he sent people to suppress us."
"I see." Guan Yue did not want to interfere too much in the matters of the Zhang Family. He then asked, "My father is not in good health and needs someone to take care of him. Are you willing?"
"Yes, as long as we have food to eat," the girl said softly but clearly.
Guan Yue added, "It is a sealed space with beautiful scenery, but there is only my father there; it might be lonely. Are you willing?"
"Yes," both girls answered together; it seemed their past experiences had frightened them.
Guan Yue smiled again and said, "What animals do you like? You can also bring some animals with you to live together."
Only then did the two girls show smiles. The younger one said, "I like rabbits."
The older girl said, "I like dogs and birds. Can I bring them?"
"Sure, let's trouble Ouyang this time. Find more rabbits and dogs, and Bird and other small animals. If there are any beautiful flowers, plants, or trees, get some of those too," Guan Yue said with a smile for the first time to Ouyang Xinyi. Ouyang Xinyi didn't say anything and immediately arranged for people to search.
Then he chuckled and said to Guan Yue: "Brother, I sold all the Celestial Wine, so now I'm giving you one hundred million Golden Jade. Can you give me a little bit of the other Celestial Wine? Just a little bit. Is that okay? My good brother!"
One hundred million Golden Jade? Guan Yue smiled and said: "I know you're using this money to buy Celestial Wine. Alright, I'll give you five thousand jin. Don't think about getting more. My friend hasn't seen it in a long time, and I don't have any new Celestial Wine to replenish." Honestly, Guan Yue was really afraid of Ouyang Xinyi's persistent requests.
Ouyang Xinyi was truly a business genius. Even in Guan Yue's past life, such talent could make a business thrive!
Hearing what Guan Yue said, Ouyang Xinyi was overjoyed: "Five thousand jin is better than nothing. So many customers are asking me, so many friends are asking me; I'm also in a difficult position. Please take care of me in the future."
Guan Yue didn't hold back either; he accepted one hundred million golden jade and then handed over five thousand jin of Celestial Wine to Ouyang Xinyi. At that moment, the people sent to find small animals returned with dozens of rabbits, dozens of dogs, hundreds of birds, and some beautiful flowers and plants that amazed the two young ladies.
In this short time, the Heavenly Intent Auction House even found nearly a thousand other small animals.
Looking at the large number of kittens, puppies, rabbits, chicks, ducklings, piglets, lambs, and monkeys, Guan Yue was very satisfied. The efficiency of the Heavenly Intent Auction House was truly impressive! He immediately sent these animals along with the two young ladies to the Sky-Sealing Tower.
Ouyang Xinyi exclaimed: "You really have the Sky Peak Tower!"
Guan Yue smiled: "Rumors do have some basis." He preferred to let Ouyang Xinyi believe he owned the Sky Peak Tower, rather than let him know he possessed the Sky-Sealing Tower. Currently, only Jiang Ming and Northern Champion knew about this matter. If this news were to leak out, Guan Yue would never have peace again.
He dared not risk letting Ouyang Xinyi find out.
So he left the Heavenly Intent Auction House and returned to the academy.
