Chapter 317 A Story Too Long to Tell
"Besides this fifth-tier lightning-elemental guild leader, there are two other hall masters who are also at the fifth-tier level, one water-elemental and one earth-elemental. However, their energy is not as stable as the lightning-elemental guild leader's, but it is still quite good."

"The remaining ones are only around the third or fourth tier. Four water-type, five fire-type, five wood-type, and ten earth-type."

"How was it? Not bad this time, huh? Went out for a while and recruited eleven earth-elemental helpers, one of whom is at the peak of the fifth rank. Tsk tsk, that should be enough."

"It's enough, it's enough." Old Xin nodded repeatedly, grinning from ear to ear. "Daughter, did you go and stir up trouble at Wuxia Hui's hideout?"

My daughter is really amazing. She just went out for a short while and brought back so many laborers.

"No, not at all. There are quite a few sorcerers in the Wuxia Society, but Brother Chi said that these people are not very united. Once they hear the news that the guild leader has been arrested, they will definitely scatter and flee."

Xin Nian pouted, "The chances of capturing so many superhumans alive again are slim."

"That's enough, that's enough," Old Xin nodded repeatedly, trying to persuade his daughter. "This is already very good."

"Of your thirty-two puppet underlings, apart from the number one who is an ordinary martial artist, the rest are all sorcerers."

Old Xin smiled and turned to see a gentle and refined man in a white shirt approaching with a smile. She paused for a moment, then said, "Hey, girl, is this young man here to see you? He looks unfamiliar."

"Dad, let me introduce you. This is Xiao Chi's older brother, Chi Zheng. He played a crucial role in the successful acquisition of the twenty-seven puppets this time."

So he told his father all about how Chi Zheng had infiltrated Wuxia Hui as an inside agent and had deliberately selected more than twenty elite henchmen for him.

The little girl whispered in her father's ear, "Brother Chi is still the Lord of the Ghost Realm. He taught me this puppet-making technique. Dad, did I learn this puppet-making technique on my own after waking up from my coma?"

"Is that so..." The old father thought carefully for a moment, then looked surprised. "Daughter, I understand. You mean, you learned your puppetry skills here?"

Xin Nian nodded.

Chi Zheng smiled and stepped forward to bow, "Uncle Wenyuan, I am Chi Zheng. Thank you very much, Commander, for taking care of my parents and younger brother along the way."

Xin Wenyuan waved his hand and laughed, "I dare not accept such care. General Chi and Xiao Chi have also helped us a lot along the way."

"Of course, we're all family." Chi Zheng smiled gently.

Seeing Xin Wenyuan's surprise, she pretended to be puzzled and said, "Could it be that Nian Nian didn't tell Uncle Wenyuan? Xiao Jue and I are both Nian Nian's sworn brothers."

Xin Nian: ...

Which pot does not open which pot.

"Haha." Seeing her father looking at her, Xin Nian chuckled twice. "Dad, you take Brother Chi to the Chi family's bamboo house to familiarize yourself with it. I have to go back to my room to advance my cultivation."

"Don't bother me these next few days."

"Hey, wait a minute. Um, isn't Chief Hutu coming over later to deliver supplies?"

Xin Nian waved her hand, "Dad, just find a few people to check the list."

"Commander! Chief Hutu has brought a lot of grain carts with him."

"Hey, honey, wait a minute before you go. They're already here."

Xin Nian followed behind her father with a blank expression, walking side by side with Chi Zheng.

Chi Zheng turned to look at her with amusement, "Is Niannian feeling guilty?"

"Why would I feel guilty?"

"If you weren't guilty, why did you run away as soon as you saw me?"

Xin Nian met his gaze and stammered, "I... my memory isn't working well, I've forgotten a lot of things from before."

"It's alright, your sworn brother forgives you." Chi Zheng nodded with a smile. "What can't be resolved between siblings? Let's not talk about the past, but only about the future, shall we?"

Xin Nian immediately thought that Xiao Chi's older brother was really nice; so understanding and charming, he was much better than the awkward and stubborn Xiao Chi. "Really?"

"of course."

"Alright then." He never expected that among his sworn brothers, Brother Chi was the most reliable!

Xin Nian immediately put on an expression as if she had met Brother Chi too late, and smiled at him, "Brother Chi, you are a good person."

Not only did she secretly teach him the art of puppetry, but she also helped him a great deal this time.

The little girl took out a round, shiny bead from her pocket, saying, "I'll use this bead to express my feelings."

Chi Zheng chuckled, raised his hand to take the gift, and flicked his sleeve slightly. "I really like the gift. Thank you, Niannian."

As Lao Xin walked, he suddenly felt no sound behind him. He turned around and saw the sky and earth seem to collapse, as if struck by lightning.

The girl took out a crystal bead and handed it to Young Master Chi, who slowly accepted it with a smile on his face.

what happened?

Why does my daughter seem like a scumbag? She gives Ningzhu to everyone she meets.

Just like the news report about the "sea king" who saw a beautiful woman and gave her a necklace, the final report showed that more than a dozen beautiful women were holding the same cheap necklace from a street stall, and at the same time recounting their experiences of meeting, getting to know, falling in love with, and cherishing the "sea king".

However, the value of the Space Condensation Bead is far, far more valuable than a cheap necklace sold at a street stall... well, it's simply incomparable.

Xin Nian continued walking, only to meet her father's disdainful gaze as he turned to look at her.

The little girl raised an eyebrow and ran to her father's side in a few steps. "Dad, what's that look you're giving me?"

"Daughter, Daddy has something to tell you."

"explain."

"Dad knows that in your past life you were so engrossed in researching superpowers that you looked down on many of the ugly men in the base, which is why you've always been single."

“Even though we’ve moved to a more old place, we can’t let ourselves go, honey. We have to be honest and trustworthy. We can’t be like those playboys and playgirls, doing irresponsible things and just playing around.”

"Dad, what did you say?" Xin Nian looked confused. Seeing her father's gaze shifting furtively backward, she couldn't help but chuckle. "Dad, those are my real sworn brothers. Didn't I tell you? When I came last time, I... I swore brotherhood with the five of them."

"I didn't do it on purpose. I was so confused at the time that I had no idea what I was doing."

"Huh?" Old Xin stared at his daughter with a puzzled expression. "Little Fatty and the others?"

"What Little Fatty? There's no Little Fatty. Except for Little Fatty."

Xin Nian rattled off a list of names, leaving her father looking at her with an even more complicated expression.

He then slapped his thigh and said, "I was saying that every time I see you, Xiao Chi, you look so awkward, and you keep reciting the Oath of the Peach Garden every few days."

"Little Fatty knew about it too? He didn't say anything?"

"I know, what do you mean?"

The old father looked at her speechlessly for a while, "I'm too lazy to talk to you. You young people should handle your own affairs. In short, whatever you do, you can't hurt Fatty's feelings."

Fatty, fatty! Even the old father's heart is now leaning towards the chubby kid.

Xin Nian didn't say anything, but she rolled her eyes inwardly. When she saw the unshaven chieftain Amon, she naturally didn't give him a friendly look.

Despite the little girl's cold expression, Amon pleaded weakly, "My things are all here, let me see Yinyin."
