I have the best bloodline

As long as he is comfortable living here, he will teach him the method of condensing the Dragon Ball.

After hearing Xiaolongnu's telepathic message, Su Yan wanted to ask her more questions, but Xiaolongnu had already run far away.

This is the harem of Emperor Wusheng. The officials of the Palace Bureau have repeatedly instructed that only females are allowed to enter. Any males who can enter the harem are either members of the harem or are clueless fools who have lost their heads.

The Empress's harem is sacred and inviolable. Anyone who dares to disturb the harem will be the first to be beheaded by our Palace Affairs Bureau!

Therefore, Su Yan could not enter the harem; he could only watch the dragon girl run away with a look of unspoken words on his face.

This is a new work by a fellow member in our book club. I haven't read it yet, but writing novels is tough these days, so I'll help out if I can!

(PS: I only helped because I'm a complete newbie. We can do some friendly banter with experienced players, but I can't say I'm helping for nothing. I'm just a nobody myself.)

Chapter 149 Little fox, please lend your aunt some money!

"It's getting late. Do you need me to arrange a carriage for you to leave the city?"

After borrowing a nest for Xiaolongnu, Princess Wuxi looked at Su Yan, Jiao Nanwu, and Tushan Lingling.

Although she intended to have Su Yan stay for a cup of tea and chat with him about everyday matters, the fact that Su Yan, as a male fox demon, stayed overnight in the princess's mansion might cause irreversible damage to his reproductive system, or he might inexplicably acquire the title of "Prince's Consort."

Princess Wuxi had no choice but to give up and told her to send the guest away.

“We don’t need the van. We came here in the VIP van from the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion,” Su Yan said.

The Treasure Appraisal Pavilion carriage is not allowed to enter the palace. The carriage that enters the palace is Princess Wuxi's carriage. The Treasure Appraisal Pavilion carriage is still in the capital city, ready to take me back to my home in Ruchun Garden as promised. So there is no need for the princess to arrange another carriage.

"I'll have them escort you to the capital! I have a few things to take care of right now."

Princess Wuxi smiled brightly, looking slightly licentious as if she was about to do something naughty. After bidding farewell to Su Yan and his group, she turned and ran towards the palace of Emperor Wusheng.

How can we not give such a young and inexperienced North Sea Black Dragon a good beating?

At that time, I will have a fox on my left, a rabbit on my right, and a black dragon on my back, and I will directly establish a sect organization based on divine beasts and fight my way from Xia Yu to the world!

"The princess's smile is particularly... wicked." Jiao Nanwu whispered in Su Yan's ear, her face full of malice. Princess Wuxi's lewd smile was unforgettable, and you could tell at a glance that nothing good was coming.

Su Yan said with a strange expression, "I just hope the two of them don't start fighting."

Although their personalities are completely different, both of them possess a strong will. Little Dragon Girl has a sharp tongue; she might not speak at all, but when she does, it's like a viper spewing out words that can choke someone to death. Princess Wuxi has extremely poor patience and is full of volatile temper.

........................

What might happen in the harem is no longer something Su Yan can know.

After observing for a while and seeing no signs of a battle, Su Yan boarded the princess's carriage and left, then transferred to the Appraisal Pavilion's carriage to rush back to Ruchun Garden.

"Oops."

When they were less than five miles from Ruchun Garden, Jiao Nanwu seemed to remember something and exclaimed, "My aunt asked us to deliver medicinal herbs, but we were so engrossed in watching the play that we forgot about our important task!"

The reason the two went out at night was because they were entrusted by their aunt to deliver medicinal herbs to the Spirit Herb Appraisal Center. The herbs inside were gifts that Princess Wuxi had given to Su Yan before. Su Yan had just broken through to the Golden Core stage, so his aunt paid out of her own pocket to add some more herbs and asked Su Yan and Jiao Nanwu to deliver them to Qian Zhi to be refined into pills to nourish their bodies.

We can also visit our senior, Dongchong, who is hospitalized along the way.

As a result, because of the dragon girl who suddenly flew out of nowhere and Tu Shan Lingling, they were so busy joining in the fun that they completely forgot what their aunt had told them.

"Auntie? Is that the big fox wearing the double happiness veil from last time?"

Upon hearing Jiao Nanwu mention her aunt, Tu Shan Lingling thought for a moment and recalled the nine-tailed fox beside Su Yan when she first met him. Her eyes lit up and she said, "Last time I was so busy asking Young Master Su that I forgot to ask if the big fox was married."

"No marriage, no children," Su Yan replied with a strange expression. "Besides, I don't really recommend you ask about these things. Neither your aunt nor Sister Xi'er recommends that you inquire about them."

Su Yan didn't know much about her sister Xi'er, but she knew quite a bit about her aunt.

The reason Auntie ran to the Xia Dynasty was because Ping Fengshan's family was in trouble with a naughty child. She had been traumatized by the bird egg that afternoon. If this fox in front of her went to ask Auntie if she had any marriage plans, Su Yan felt that Tu Shan Lingling might take off from the fourth-floor window.

Sister Xi'er probably doesn't plan to get married either. After all, her main body's harem has already produced dragon girls, which shows just how remote and unpopular that place is.

"Where do you live? If you need, I can have a van take you directly home."

When the van arrived at the gate of Ruchun Garden, Su Yan looked at Tu Shan Lingling and asked her a question.

"No need, no need. I live in Luohe Residence. I can get there in a little while by flying through the air." Tu Shan Lingling looked at the huge signboard of the brothel, then glanced at the underage fox Su Yan in front of her, and a look of sympathy appeared on her face.

I used to think that Young Master Su was just fooling the fox! I really didn't expect that a minor would have to work and perform for money. But the little fox is indeed cute.

"Then we'll head back now."

Su Yan nodded and bid farewell to Tu Shan Lingling. He and Jiao Nanwu returned to the main hall of the brothel from the backyard. They immediately saw their aunt sitting on the fourth floor, scratching her head and playing a game of chess. The aunt glanced at the two of them and casually asked, "Why did it take you so long to come back? Is Dongchong alright?"

"Well, there was a slight mishap; we didn't go to the Spirit Herb Appraisal Center to find Master Qian."

Su Yan ran up to the fourth floor with a bouncy gait, leaped into the form of a white-furred little fox, hopped onto her aunt's lap, shifted her body to find a comfortable position, and then told her aunt what had happened when she went out.

Then, Su Yan asked, "Auntie, do you know what the Dragon Balls are used for? How do you condense them?"

Su Yan had heard the term "Dragon Ball" many times, but if asked what kind of power it possessed, he would be stumped. This was because the Little Dragon Girl's words made him realize that the Dragon Ball was a life-saving treasure for the dragon race, not something that carried all the dragon's magical power and supernatural abilities as he had previously thought.

So what exactly is Dragon Ball?

"Dragon Balls? Auntie doesn't know what the Dragon Balls are for, but their most important function is probably to save lives, right?"

My aunt shook her head and said, "Dragons have two lives. When you kill a dragon, it doesn't really die. Even if you grind a dragon to dust, it can live another life in the dragon race."

When a dragon dies an unnatural death, its essence and soul enter the dragon pearl, transforming the solid pearl into a dragon egg that hatches the dragon from its physical body and gives it another life.

This is the most important function of Dragon Ball, and one of its most well-known abilities.

As for whether there are other functions, Auntie really doesn't know. The Dragon Balls are one of the most important life-saving treasures of the Dragon Clan. No fool would reveal all of their life-saving abilities. The method of reviving with the Dragon Balls gradually spread because it was used more and more.

"Although she is certain of your dragon identity, as long as you don't use water control magic, she shouldn't be able to determine exactly which dragon race you are descended from."

Auntie stroked Su Yan's head, thought for a moment, and said, "So there's no need to worry too much. As for the method of condensing the Dragon Ball, your father and mother didn't give me any instructions, so how could I possibly know?"

"Since the little black dragon has agreed to give it to you, you should grant her a small request. However, don't rush to cultivate the condensation method after you receive it. Wait until the spring outing, then find an opportunity to ask Grand Tutor Jin about it."

"Your aunt will also try to find out more for you during this time."

"My aunt is so nice!"

Hearing her aunt's caring words, Su Yan squatted down and gave her aunt a hug to express her gratitude.

"Actually, it's not too good. Your aunt is thinking of borrowing some money from you."

Seeing Su Yan so deeply moved, the aunt said, a little embarrassed:

"It's just... I'm borrowing the money you need to get married. Don't worry, your aunt won't lend you much, just one million catties of spirit stones!"

The aunt felt embarrassed by these words. As a half-step Earth Immortal Demon King, she had actually fallen so low that she had to borrow spirit stones from a junior for relief. It was simply an insult to the dignity of an Earth Immortal cultivator.

But there's nothing I can do; my aunt is really poor. She has enough for small expenses, but when she needs a lot of money, her pockets are emptier than her face.

Left with no other choice, the aunt had to resort to making advances towards Su Yan's wife.

Let me share some fun things from my life with you. (laughs)

My friend's house is next door. He made a fortune and moved out, renting out his house. Yesterday morning, when I was getting ready to buy a new table and chairs after breakfast, I met this new neighbor, a girl who looked average.

Around noon, I heard a child crying and making a fuss coming from the neighbor's house. The child was about one or two years old and couldn't speak very well.

From 2 PM to 4 PM, I could hear DJ music and greetings of "Welcome, sir!" and "Thank you for your donations!" coming from my neighbor's house. I don't watch live streams, so I don't know which live stream she was broadcasting in.

But when I heard her say thank you for the donations from Spicy Strips and Fortune Treasure, I did a quick search on Baidu and found that she might be live streaming on Bilibili.

Then the problem is coming.

Is the top-ranked player here?

The table and chairs I bought yesterday are too heavy to move. Can you lend them to me so I can carry them?

Chapter 150 Three-Tailed Fox

"Lend me your savings for a wife? Auntie, what are you planning to do with this?"

When the topic of borrowing money came up, Su Yan's face showed obvious wariness. She quickly moved from her aunt's lap to the long table, looking at her aunt with suspicion.

My aunt asking to borrow money isn't a big problem; the biggest problem is what my aunt wants to do with it.

You see, Aunt has a history of gambling, and Su Yan always lends money only to those in urgent need, not those who are poor. Since Aunt doesn't have a very good reason, it's not easy to lend her the money.

"Didn't you win hundreds of thousands of spirit stones at the Imperial Martial Arts Competition earlier? We'll lend you what you need, not what you're poor for."

For the first two days of the Imperial Martial Arts Competition, it was a contest between gamblers and the Xia Yu Dynasty. In the following five days, Xia Yu heated up the betting market and then ran off with the money. It was all about gamblers hurting each other, while the Xia Yu Dynasty sat back and earned its share of the profits from the betting market in spirit stones.

Su Yan remembered that during the three-day martial arts competition in front of the emperor, he helped his aunt win several hundred thousand. Although his aunt lost some money later because he went into seclusion and didn't participate, those were small wins and losses and didn't matter. Overall, his aunt could now be considered a wealthy older sister.

"You wicked fox!"

Auntie raised her hand and tapped Su Yan on the head, causing the little fox to cover its head and whine incessantly. Auntie glared at Su Yan with annoyance and scolded, "What kind of person do you take your auntie for? Do you think I'm the kind of worthless person who would gamble away my own nephew's spirit stones? Of course, I'm asking you for spirit stones because it's important!"

"My aunt is preparing to complete her semi-immortal accumulation and break through to the Earth Immortal realm in one go, but she's still a little short!"

Although there is little difference in spells between a half-step Earth Immortal and a Land Immortal, the half-step Earth Immortal is at most slower in casting spells and has a slightly smaller range and weaker power.

However, over millions of years, the cultivation world has specifically designated the titles of Half-Step Earth Immortal and Terrestrial Immortal to represent the indelible gap between Half-Step and Earth Immortal in the Integration Stage, hence the establishment of these two titles.

The biggest difference between the two is that a half-step Earth Immortal will die when attacked, while an Earth Immortal is immune to physical attacks, has a high degree of immunity to magical damage, and can awaken a unique innate supernatural power.

Although my aunt won quite a few spirit stones in the Imperial Martial Arts Competition, she later calculated with an abacus and realized that the spirit stones she won were at most enough for her to complete her transformation from a half-step Earth Immortal to a true Earth Immortal.

If she wants to awaken her supernatural powers in one step and fuse the power of water with the dual nature of yin and yang, the more than 200,000 catties of spirit stones in her pocket may not be enough. Without a large number of spirit stones to invest in cultivation, she can only rely on the slow and steady process of accumulating time to break through. Her menstrual blood will be burning out!

It just so happens that my nephew has a lot of spirit stones, so I'm going to ask him to lend me a quarter of them.

"You sly fox! How dare you question your aunt's gambling! Your aunt was clearly preparing to do something important!"

The aunt pinched Su Yan's cheeks and started pulling, loudly scolding Su Yan for his heartless behavior:

"I was thinking that after you go on a spring outing to the academy in a while, with Grand Tutor Jin helping me take care of my nephew, I can also find time to cultivate. How could you imagine your aunt as a heartless stepmother who takes my nephew's money and lives a carefree life!"

"Quickly apologize to your aunt! Otherwise, your aunt will shave all the hair off your belly with a razor and let you experience the bleak ending of the wind blowing the bells!"

"My aunt is not right"

While being held, Su Yan mumbled incoherently, his face full of helplessness: "But Ning also has his tricks. Last time Ning asked me to borrow spirit stones as gambling money, so don't blame me for thinking dirty thoughts."

Auntie usually only had a few thousand catties of spirit stones in her pocket. Before the opening of the Imperial Martial Arts Competition, Auntie borrowed tens of thousands of catties of spirit stones from Su Yan to make up for her losses. Therefore, when Auntie said that she wanted to borrow a million catties of spirit stones, Su Yan couldn't help but think the wrong thing.

"This is truly my good nephew. Those spirit stones won't produce any offspring just sitting there, but if you lend them to me, once I reach the Earth Immortal level, I'll take you to plunder those small sects. I guarantee that after robbing thirty to fifty of them, we can earn back a million catties of spirit stones plus interest. I'll give you an IOU later."
