After the mind-reading cripple junior sister, the entire sect rose to prominence.

Chapter 52 Purple Mysterious Fruit

Everyone smiled and looked at them upon hearing this.

"Okay, we believe you."

"You will definitely get better and better."

"Is this the child you found? She's so pretty and lovely. I don't know what kind of parents could be so heartless!"

"Exactly, other people can't even get pregnant if they want to, and this one was abandoned after being born. It's heartless."

Because cultivators have long lifespans and can defy the heavens to become immortals, they actually face some difficulties in having offspring. Moreover, the higher their cultivation level, the harder it is to conceive. This is probably a form of suppression from the heavens.

Ordinary people usually have two or three children, but cultivators usually have one or two at most, and having more than two is extremely difficult.

It is indeed rare for a child to be born and then abandoned.

Chen Lan and Ji Qingqing started listening with smiles on their faces, but they became visibly flustered as they listened.

They quickly glanced at Mo Jiuwei—

The Xianlai Sect members haven't dared to mention Mo Jiuwei's parents at all these past few days!

Because Mo Jiuwei is not an ignorant child, she can understand what everyone is saying, so talking about this in front of her is like stabbing her in the heart!

No one wanted to mention her sad stories, for fear of upsetting her, so they deliberately avoided the topic.

Even if her parents don't want her, the Immortal Sect will still take her in and will cherish her like a treasure, ensuring she receives no less love than other children!
But parents are parents after all, and no one else can replace them. If Jiuwei minds, wouldn't that be...?

However, when they were watching, they didn't see any obvious sadness on Mo Jiuwei's face, as if she was completely unaffected by these words.

But Chen Lan and the others quickly changed the subject and didn't continue the conversation. Just then, someone else came to ask about the price.

I guess the price and quality were acceptable, so I placed another order.

When Ji Qingqing and the others went to check on Mo Jiuwei again, they found that... she was asleep again!
The two were both amused and exasperated, but also relieved.

Time flies when you're at a stall; they only sold about 30% of their goods before it got dark.

Darkness doesn't mean the end of business; on the contrary, the market becomes especially lively at night, with even the stalls that were empty during the day being rented out.

This is also known as a "night market".

The reason for the existence of night markets is that some items have questionable origins and are "shady" because they would attract too much attention during the day, making it more suitable to trade them at night.

Some of these items were stolen or robbed, some were obtained through murder and robbery, and others were controversial items like poison... In order to sell them quickly, the prices were often quite good, and many cultivators came to try their luck with the idea of ​​getting a bargain.

The default rule is that once a transaction is completed, the seller is not responsible for anything purchased at the night market. If problems arise, the seller will not be in the right, and may even deny that the item was sold from them.

Chen Lan looked to her right. The stalls there were empty during the day, but now they had been rented by a middle-aged male cultivator.

He was skinny, with shifty eyes and a strong "thieving" air about him.

After arriving, he looked around and then laid out the items.

After seeing what was on his stall, Chen Lan and Ji Qingqing both fell silent.

These things, well, they have everything, a huge range, and they don't seem to come from any legitimate source.

At Qingfeng Ridge, four Foundation Establishment cultivators attempted to kill and rob the disciples of the Xianlai Sect, but they failed. They were killed instead of the disciples, and their storage bags ended up in the hands of the Xianlai Sect disciples.

Once opened, this is what it looked like inside—a complete mess, clearly belonging to different owners.

However, Chen Lan and the others glanced at it and then looked away.

So what if it's obtained through illegitimate means? This kind of thing happens all the time in the cultivation world, and nobody cares.

Just as it was only natural for them to kill the four Foundation Establishment cultivators and seize their storage bags, it was also only natural for them to be killed and have their possessions taken if they were outmatched.

It can only be said that they were simply less skilled than others.

Just as they turned their heads, seemingly uninterested, they heard Mo Jiuwei's excited shout—

[Ah! Good stuff! Guoguo!]

[Quickly grab it, grab it, grab it!]

Chen Lan was taken aback and looked at Mo Jiuwei, only to find her staring intently at a spot on the male cultivator's stall, excitedly using her hands and feet.

Fruit? Could it be referring to the Spirit Fruit?
Is that spirit fruit on this stall?

However, there were too many things there and they were too varied, so for a moment Chen Lan didn't know which one Mo Jiuwei was referring to.

"Senior sister..." Ji Qingqing looked at Chen Lan, asking with her eyes whether she should go over and search.

Chen Lan thought for a moment, shook her head, and mouthed the word "wait".

This person has just arrived and seems very shrewd. Let's not rush to ask questions; let's observe him further first.

Just then, a passerby stopped and paused when they saw the new stall.

"These are all good stuff, feel free to look around, the prices are definitely good!" the male stall owner said with a smile.

The customer squatted down, rummaged around on the ground, and then spotted a hairpin. "Is this made of gold ore? What's the price?"

Chen Lan's gaze followed his hand, and she noticed that as he rummaged around, a small, light purple fruit rolled out.

When they looked at Mo Jiuwei, her gaze followed the fruit, and she was practically drooling.

Chen Lan immediately understood—

It seems this is the fruit.

However, she then became puzzled because she didn't recognize what kind of spiritual fruit it was.

She glanced at Ji Qingqing, and clearly, she also looked puzzled and didn't recognize her.

Ah, it really is a Purple Mystic Fruit!

[Great! We can use it to grow fruit!]

But how can I get my senior sisters to buy it...?

Mo Jiuwei was caught in a dilemma, her brows furrowing.

Chen Lan then realized what this thing was.

The Purple Mystic Fruit, or more accurately, the seed of the Purple Mystic Fruit!

The Purple Mystic Fruit may look small, but it's full of spiritual energy. Eating it is equivalent to cultivating.

Moreover, it tastes amazing; even if it has no effect, its taste alone is enough to make people love it.

The Purple Mystic Fruit is extremely rare because it is so sweet that it attracts the attention of nearby demons and cultivators while it is still growing. They can't resist swallowing it before it is fully ripe.

It is even said that the trunks of fruit trees contain sweet sap, which is also rich in a faint spiritual energy and can be directly absorbed by demonic beasts.

This results in not only the fruit dying out early, but also the tree trunk potentially being uprooted by monsters...

I never expected there would be a Purple Mystic Fruit seed here!
