Chapter 2695
2695 Advancing
Qiao Mu dispatched individuals to inquire at both Liujin Court’s court and her father’s courtyard. Upon learning that the debt-collecting squad was proceeding with standard procedures, His Excellency Qiao felt a surge of delight.
He directed Caixiu and the embroiderer to gather all the accountants who had sufficiently rested since their previous night’s work.
In that moment, a collective sense of contentment prevailed, with each individual receiving a sum ten times their usual earnings, surpassing the initially agreed-upon amount. The news of this augmentation further elevated everyone’s spirits.
...
Upon receiving the generous two-thousand spirit currency per person, thoughtfully provided by the Crown Prince Consort, joy radiated from their faces.
Once the completion fees were distributed, Qiao Mu released the assembly.
Even if certain individuals couldn’t contain their excitement and divulged the information regarding the Crown Prince Consort’s intent to acquire multiple dowry shops, it held no consequence.
The affluent young lady remained impervious to gossip.
After all, news of her inheriting over ten thousand acres of fertile land, five thriving shops, and ownership of Half-Moon Cliff had already become common knowledge throughout the capital, a legacy from the Kang Prince. The source of this information was evident.
It undoubtedly stemmed from the Kang Prince Consort and her adopted daughter, Miss Liu Yiran.
/Still skeptical?/
/Should doubt persist, then repress it!/
/The charm of Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao inadvertently led to this./
Following numerous days and ample compensation from various families, the Crown Prince Consort had successfully transitioned from a village girl to a triumphant figure, cresting the zenith of her life…
/Very well. She couldn’t care less anyway./
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao, luxuriating in a state of serene comfort, assumed a cross-legged position early in the morning for meditative cultivation.
Suddenly, the sapling Qiuqiu addressed her, “Master, Master, Qi Xuanxuan and the others have concluded their secluded cultivation. They seem poised to advance to a higher level. It’s advisable to let them do so outside to prevent depletion of Paradise Planet’s spiritual energy.”
/His Excellency Qiuqiu worked painstakingly to gather this spiritual energy. He can’t allow those little troublemakers to advance and cause chaos!/
The shrewd-minded His Excellency Qiuqiu was engaged in covert calculations.
Qiao Mu’s keen intellect enabled her to effortlessly grasp its thoughts, provoking an automatic amusement within her.
“Alright.”
It was fortuitous that they were ready to progress. Directing Xuanxuan and the others to the hinterlands of the Mu Clan’s mountain, where abundant spiritual energy permeated the air, would naturally facilitate their advancement while also solidifying their cultivation foundation.
A luminous beam materialized.
Qi Xuanxuan, Qi Xuanxuan, Duanmu Qing, Little Fatty, and their companions manifested by her side.
Before Qiao Mu could even address them, she beckoned for Huifeng to guide them to the vacant expanse behind the Mu Clan’s mountain for their progression.
After a considerable duration of secluded cultivation, Qi Xuanxuan, Qi Xuanxuan, Duanmu Qing, and the rest were poised for a substantial leap in their cultivation.
Merely contemplating this prospect filled her with elation for her friends, surpassing the joy she’d feel from her own advancement.
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao pushed open the door and emerged, a faint smile tugging at her lips as she observed her companions depart in haste.
This was the tableau that greeted Mo Lian as he approached.
The young one stood by the entrance, bathed in sunlight. Their eyes gleamed with an adorable brightness.
Swiftly, he soared to her side, enfolding her in his embrace. With a peppy energy, he pressed a tender kiss against her cheek. “Qiaoqiao, have you got good news?”
“Xuanxuan and the others have emerged.”
In an instant, Crown Prince Mo the Great let out an impatient huff.
/How was this a positive development?/
/The emergence of Qi Xuanxuan, Qi Xuanxuan, and the others, potentially leading to more tumult in the future, only meant intensified competition for Little One’s attention!/
Qiao Mu blinked, regarding Crown Prince Mo as she inquired with a Seeker’s understanding. “Xuanxuan and the others went to the rear mountain to advance their levels!”
“Alright, alright, alright.” Crown Prince Mo begrudgingly shifted to a more joyful demeanor. “Coincidentally, there’s a grand banquet scheduled in five days. Let them all attend together.”
