Many Children And Many Blessings, I Am Flourishing In The Immortal Cultivation World

Chen Daoxuan held the bead in his palm, flipping it over and inspecting it repeatedly.

Something's not right...

This bead is surprisingly heavy in my hand.

"How about it, little brother? I didn't deceive you, did I?"

Seeing the surprised expression on Chen Daoxuan's face, the middle-aged man raised an eyebrow.

The young girl sighed and shook her head.

"This thing is indeed quite good."

Chen Daoxuan glanced at the price: 350,000 spirit stones.

It's not too expensive.

After all, this bead was formed inside a Sixth Grade spiritual beast and it's from the ocean, making it extremely difficult to capture. It's reasonable for such a large round bead to have this price.

Mainly because this bead doesn't have much effect on cultivators.

It's just for looks.

Or grinding the bead into powder and applying it on the face to delay aging.

For some female cultivators or women from wealthy families, it possesses an irresistible allure.

"Wrap it up, I'll take it."

Chen Daoxuan calmly paid.

"Little brother, there are some other good things here."

The middle-aged man rubbed his hands excitedly.

Chen Daoxuan looked at him in surprise.

"You're not the owner of this shop, are you?"

Chen Daoxuan found it strange.

This guy isn't a shill, right?

"Of course not. If I were the owner, I would clearly know the details of this thing. How could I sell it so cheap?"

"Although it's our first meeting, I feel a good impression of you, little brother."

"I just feel that those things, if bought by someone else, would be a great pity. In your hands, they will truly belong."

The middle-aged man reached out his hand. "I'm Zhou Tailai, may I know how to address you, little brother?"

"Chen Daoxuan."

Chen Daoxuan lightly shook hands with Zhou Tailai.

"Chen Daoxuan?"

Zhou Tailai let go of his hand and rubbed his chin, carefully pondering. "Why do I feel like this name sounds familiar?"

"The shopkeeper, you specifically inquired about it not long ago, the Chen family of Zhou Country."

The girl next to them couldn't help but remind him.

"I remember now, I remember now."

Zhou Tailai slapped his forehead, extremely delighted. "So, little brother is the famous Chen Daoxuan. I didn't expect to meet you here today. Later, let's go to the restaurant next door and have a good meal."

"..."

Several black lines appeared on Chen Daoxuan's head.

This Zhou Tailai is too enthusiastic, right?

Why does it feel suspicious?

"No need, I still have something to take care of later."

Chen Daoxuan casually made up an excuse to decline.

"Brother Chen, don't worry too much. I just want to make a few more friends. I'm a restless person and always like to make friends."

Zhou Tailai naturally understood what Chen Daoxuan was thinking, not getting angry, and explained with a smile, "I guess Brother Chen came here for the auction. I happen to have a friend in the auction. I recently received some small news."

"Alright then."

Chen Daoxuan thought for a moment.

The other party's identity is noble, so they shouldn't resort to foul play.

He agreed.

The two of them strolled around the second floor, and Chen Daoxuan bought a few more things, spending a total of one million. However, this amount is still just a drop in the bucket for Chen Daoxuan.

After all, the spirit stones produced by the three spirit stone veins amount to one million every month. After deducting necessary expenses, he can still save several hundred thousand. Over the years, it has accumulated into an astronomical figure.

Even Chen Daoxuan himself doesn't know how much money he actually has.

Anyway, he is very wealthy.

"Let's go."

Zhou Tailai seemed impatient as he quickly led Chen Daoxuan to the nearby restaurant.

"Innkeeper."

"Innkeeper."

Countless waiters along the way, including the accountant behind the counter, were extremely respectful.

"Is this your restaurant?"

Chen Daoxuan asked curiously.

"It's just for fun in my spare time."

Zhou Tailai laughed heartily. "I have three hobbies: making friends, collecting treasures, and enjoying good food."

"Although there are many big restaurants in this city, most of them don't suit my taste."

"So I opened my own restaurant and hired some good chefs. I come here to enjoy a meal whenever I want, and make some money on the side."

Zhou Tailai said calmly.

Chen Daoxuan felt amazed.

Zhou Tailai seemed even more formidable than he had imagined.

First of all, this place is in the center of the city. Being able to acquire such a large piece of land and build such a huge building indicates a powerful background.

Secondly, the restaurant has five floors, each with many tables. There are more than a dozen waiters alone, and behind them is a separate building where the chefs work. When Chen Daoxuan first entered, he saw a constant stream of meat and vegetables being delivered through the window.

All five floors are usually packed with guests.

The daily throughput is astonishing.

Especially, there are many cultivators inside.

The strongest among them have reached Foundation Building Rank Six.

They can go without eating for a long time.

But they still like to come here to drink and eat, which proves the quality of this restaurant.

They have status, position, and wealth.

Beside Zhou Tailai is a stunningly beautiful woman, who is so beautiful that she outshines everything around her.

Moreover...

Although this woman appears to be an ordinary person, just a moment ago, her body emitted a faint special aura, clearly indicating that she is a Foundation Building Rank Nine cultivator.

To have a cultivator of this level as a bodyguard by his side...

Zhou Tailai's identity is probably even more formidable than Chen Daoxuan had imagined.

"So I don't need to pay today, right?"

Chen Daoxuan joked intentionally.

"You're underestimating me, little brother. I consider you a friend. From today onwards, whenever you come to this restaurant, feel free to order whatever you want, and I'll treat you. You won't have to spend a single penny."

Zhou Tailai said generously, laughing heartily.

The girl beside him covered her mouth and giggled, unable to help shaking her head.

"Come, let's go to the private room on the fifth floor that was reserved for me."

Saying this, the group of people went to the fifth floor. Zhou Tailai skillfully ordered some delicious food and sat next to Chen Daoxuan, engaging in conversation.

While they were chatting...

The door opened.

A butler-like person walked in and approached Zhou Tailai. However, when he saw Chen Daoxuan, his expression changed.

The words that were about to come out of his mouth were swallowed back.

"There's nothing that can't be said. Speak in front of Brother Chen."

Zhou Tailai took a sip of wine.

"The young lady still hasn't been found. The guards have turned the city upside down."

The butler frowned. "They even searched outside the city, but there's no trace of her."

"She hasn't been found yet? A girl who just turned eighteen, where could she have gone?"

Zhou Tailai furrowed his brows slightly.
