Immortal Emperor's Life As A Son-in-law

As time went on, the night wind became ear-piercing, and the group of people became nervous.    

    

Drip, drip, they seemed to be able to hear the sound of the clock moving.    

    

"What are you still sitting for?"    

    

Xiao Chen looked at these guys and could not help frowning. He was still waiting to see the treasures these guys brought.    

    

"Shh!"    

    

Zhang Xiaoxiao turned her head and glared at him.    

    

Just as she was about to speak, a swift figure suddenly broke through the night sky and flew towards the mountain peak.    

    

The person who came was a middle-aged man. He was not tall and was less than 1.7 meters.    

    

He looked lean and thin, but as he ran, his speed was not slow. In the blink of an eye, he had already landed on the peak.    

    

This was also the only person who did not disguise himself other than Xiao Chen and Zhang Xiaoxiao.    

    

The moment the person landed, he swept a glance over Xiao Chen and Zhang Xiaoxiao. His narrowed eyes carried a strong sense of oppression.    

    

Zhang Xiaoxiao's face turned pale and her body involuntarily bent down.    

    

Xiao Chen curled the corner of his mouth and coughed lightly.    

    

At the same time that it exploded, it also shattered the pressure that permeated the person. Only then did Zhang Xiaoxiao let out a heavy sigh.    

    

The person's eyes immediately flashed, and he looked at Xiao Chen's face with a look of scrutiny and surprise.    

    

"Greetings, Upper Envoy!"    

    

Right at this moment, the rest of the people stood up in unison, bowed, and cupped their fists at the man.    

    

Only then did the person withdraw his gaze, and elegantly waved his clothes. After that, he pressed his hand down, and took the lead to sit on the ground.    

    

The others hurriedly descended, and then moved to a stop first. Before the person who had arrived sat down, their buttocks first landed on the ground.    

    

Thump, thump, a few crisp sounds rang out in succession. They didn't know that they all thought that they had fallen.    

    

Zhang Xiaoxiao naturally did not stay idle either. She quickly pulled Xiao Chen's arm.    

    

The two of them only sat down last before the person came and sat down.    

    

Even so, that Lord Upper Envoy also narrowed his eyes and swept a glance over the two of them. His eyes carried a touch of cold light.    

    

Zhang Xiaoxiao immediately pursed her lips and stared at Xiao Chen with a depressed and helpless look. An inexplicable trace of worry flashed across her face.    

    

Xiao Chen did not care about that much. He stared at the group of people with a pair of big eyes.    

    

"Master Upper Envoy, this is a Space Abyssal Stone. If you like it, I would like to exchange for a bottle of Qi Drawing Pill."    

    

After sitting down, someone immediately opened his mouth and took out a piece of ore from his pocket.    

    

It was entirely black, but it emitted a strange luster. It was the size of a fist.    

    

One look and one could tell that it was a type of spirit ore. Xiao Chen's eyes lit up, and he thought to himself that this trip was not a fluke.    

    

This kind of spirit ore... The Nether Space Stone was a material used to craft weapons, but it was not the main material. It was an enchanting material.    

    

In other words, adding this kind of ore into the refined spirit artifact could allow one to inscribe runes and array formations within the spirit artifact.    

    

However, Xiao Chen did not lack this thing. After all, he had obtained two of them from the storage ring of the "Great collector."    

    

With just a glance, he lost interest in the stone. Instead, he was a little curious about that Qi Drawing Pill.    

    

After coming to this world, he had yet to officially see the so-called medicinal pill of Martial Cultivation World.    

    

As he was thinking, that Lord Upper Envoy had already taken the Space Abyssal Stone and played with it in his hand.    

    

"Good, not bad. It's worth three pounds, and it's worth a bottle of Qi Guiding Pill!"    

    

As he spoke, Lord Upper Envoy immediately took out a jade bottle from his bosom and threw it away.    

    

The fellow who took out the Nether Stone quickly held the bottle in his hand as if he had found a precious treasure. He chuckled.    

    

He opened the bottle as if he was showing off. A fragrance immediately came out of the bottle.    

    

It was mellow, rich, and carried a sweet fragrance.    

    

Xiao Chen's eyes were sharp. In a flash, he had already identified the true body of the pill in the bottle.    

    

The smell did not seem to be wrong, but when the medicinal pill entered his eyes, he almost laughed out loud.    

    

Apart from the smell, there were several other criteria to judge the quality of a pill, such as its color and spirituality.    

    

This bottle of Qi Guiding Pill had mixed spirituality and a dark color.    

    

It was obvious that the person who concocted the pill did not have a complete mastery of the technique. It was a miracle that the pill could be formed.    

    

It would be better to say that this kind of pill was almost the same as the Beauty Pill at first glance. Even the Beauty Pill looked better than it.    

    

Xiao Chen suddenly felt that he had high expectations for this thing. It was simply ridiculous.    

    

The others naturally noticed his expression. They all glared at him, but none of them looked good.    

    

Especially Upper Envoy. He furrowed his brows and coldly looked at Xiao Chen's face. He coldly snorted.    

    

Zhang Xiaoxiao also glared at Xiao Chen. She wished she could immediately punch him in the face.    

    

Xiao Chen took a deep breath and covered up that joke.    

    

At this time, another person took out something and handed it to Upper Envoy, and also made a request to exchange medicinal pills.    

    

In total, he had already taken out four or five spirit mines and several precious medicines.    

    

However, the medicinal pills he returned were not much better than the bottle of Qi Drawing Pill.    

    

Some were used to treat injuries, some were used to assist in cultivation, and some were even used to exchange for a ruined formation disk.    

    

Xiao Chen wanted to make a move several times, but was stopped by Zhang Xiaoxiao.    

    

Xiao Chen was depressed and could not help but turn his head to glare at her. He said in a deep voice, "What are you doing?"    

    

"Wait a minute. The free trade still needs a while. You can't..."    

    

Zhang Xiaoxiao carried a warning and a pleading with her.    

    

However, before she could finish speaking, Xiao Chen suddenly broke free from her hands.    

    

With a pair of bright eyes, he swept his gaze across the field.    

    

At this moment, the entire scene was silent. Almost everyone was looking at the thing that was being held in the hand of a masked man.    

    

It was a fruit with a strange appearance.    

    

There were seven empty holes on the fruit. It looked like a heart with seven apertures opened.    

    

The translucent texture was like an artifact made of glass, emitting an alluring luster.    

    

"This is the Seven-Orifices Exquisite Fruit. There really is such a thing. Where are you from..."    

    

"Shut up!" Before the curious person could finish his question, Upper Envoy interrupted him.    

    

Then, Upper Envoy carefully held the Seven-Orifice Exquisite Fruit in his hand. His eyes were full of heat.    

    

"What do you want to exchange for?"    

    

"All the pills that have been traded just now, as well as a formation plate that can be used to protect the clan."    

    

"Alright!" Without the slightest hesitation, that Lord Upper Envoy nodded his head.    

    

Afraid that the other party would go back on his word, he hurriedly took out a bunch of things from his bosom and handed them all to the other party.    

    

Xiao Chen's eyes lit up, and he was still in shock.    

    

Seeing Upper Envoy suddenly take out a jade box and preparing to put away the Seven-Orifice Exquisite Fruit, he snapped back to his senses.    

    

"Wait! This Profound, no, Seven-Orifice Exquisite Fruit, I want it!"    

    

An unquestionable tone and an authoritative tone immediately caused a huge uproar in the crowd.    

    

In an instant, everyone looked over as if they were looking at a fool, especially Upper Envoy, who was filled with killing intent in an instant.
