Chapter 48

ch 48.1 – Village Women Came to Visit

“Eh, more visitor?”

Little Yuteng, who was sitting on the crystal tree sensed another intruder into the Cheng’s territory. She did not disturb Cheng Xiao Xiao but flashed out of the dimension by herself.

Under the moonlight, a black silhouette sneaked around. He didn’t touch any properties of he Cheng’s, but cautiously seeking all over as though he was looking for something.

Little Yuteng noticed the man in black as soon as she exited the dimension. She didn’t know who he was, but she was pretty sure he was up to no good. With a wave of her hand, the man in black disappeared.

Needless to say, he had faced the same fate as the two deacons.

The next day, after Cheng Xiao Xiao exited the dimension and saw her father for the first time, she’d noticed that he looked different than before, in a good way. Especially his eyes, they were even more acute than before, making them hard to look directly at.

“Dad, did you have a break through?” asked Cheng Xiao Xiao with a smile.

“Ha ha ha…” laughed Cheng Biyuan happily. “Indeed. I am now a martial spiritualist!”

“Martial spiritualist, dad had became martial spiritualist?” Cheng Xiao Xiao paused, she was a little surprised. She thought her father would become advance level martial master at most, she hadn’t expect him to become martial spiritualist!

What a pleasant surprise!

“Daddy was so strong!” Little Lan Lan clapped her small hands together.

Cheng Zheng Yuan and his brother regarded their father with admiration. Martial spiritualist, that’s quite up there!

Of course, as Cheng Biyuan, the head of household, become stronger, the better the safety for the family. Everybody smiled happily.

By now Cheng Xiao Xiao had already heard about the “guest” from last night from Yuteng. She didn’t pay it much attention. He was already locked up, nothing else to worry about.

After breakfast, the villagers came again. Other than the four that came the day before, there was another familiar face – Liu Danhang. He came with the villagers.

“Danhang, you really want to join us?” Cheng Biyuan was a bit surprised.

Liu Danhang sneaked a glance at Cheng Xiao Xiao and nodded, “Yes, Uncle Cheng, I will work hard. Don’t you worry!”

“Um, okay. Why don’t you give it a try. If you couldn’t handle it, let me know!” Cheng Biyuan was already martial spiritualist, nothing could escape his eyes. But he decided to let him stay for now.

Liu Danhang smiled like he was relieved. Quickly he said, “Thank you, Uncle Cheng!”

“No problem. We appreciate you coming to help us out. Let’s go. Let’s heard to the well!”

The group exited the back of the house. Even the young ones went to check out the actions. Only Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Xiao Xiao were left at the house.

“Mom, I will go pick some vegetables from the field!” Cheng Xiao Xiao was about to step out with her basket.

Mrs. Cheng stopped her on her way out, “Wait, Xiao Xiao!”

“Mom, what’s the matter?”

“I will go with you. Let’s go!”

“Oh!” Cheng Xiao Xiao followed her mother to the vegetable fields. She knew her mother had something to say to her, so she couldn’t help but asked, “Mom, is something wrong?”

“Xiao Xiao, nothing serious. We have enough food for the time being, just not a lot of money. There are some necessities that we need to get. Maybe it’s time for your dad to take a trip to the marketplace!”

“You are right. Last time dad was about to go to the marketplace but got sidetracked. We should make a trip the next day or two!” Being reminded, Cheng Xiao Xiao remembered all the inventory piling up in the warehouse. She felt troubled.
