Chapter 1217 - Return
Panda Novel
With the Storage Bracelet in hand, Chen Xiaobei began to communicate with its Spiritual Attribute. He was able to use it to look at what was stored inside.
If he had not looked into it, he would have never known what was inside. But what he saw made Chen Xiaobei roll his eyes.
The Ape King had turned the Storage Bracelet into a trashcan!
There were the usual things like rice, oil, salt, clothes, gauze and medicines. But there were also leftover meats, empty liquor bottles, moldy fruits and rotten Demonic Beast corpses.
A trashcan itself would be ashamed of the conditions inside. It was practically an unmarked grave!
You could tell that every time the Ape King had killed, he would store his bounty in the bracelet. He even had a bad habit of throwing his trash into it.
Chen Xiaobei felt his throat convulse, feeling a little queasy after seeing the contents of the bracelet. He had every intention to throw the piece of crap away.
“What kind of surprise is this? This is traumatizing!”
But just when Chen Xiaobei decided to chuck it away, he discovered something massive!
“Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god!”
Chen Xiaobei suddenly leapt up like a child on Christmas, his face red with excitement.
If the storm does not pass, how can a rainbow appear?
After the torture of having to plough his way through all that garbage, Chen Xiaobei discovered the treasure buried deep inside!
“800… 900… 1,000!!”
Chen Xiaobei exclaimed, “What the hell! There’s 1,000 medium-grade Spiritual Stones in here! That’s exactly 1 million low-grade Spiritual Stones!”
Right now, Chen Xiaobei only had 500 medium-grade Spiritual Stones.
He did not expect to get another 1,000 in this Storage Bracelet!
The Spiritual Stones were not as effective as the Beast Cores were in increasing Chen Xiaobei’s strength, but it did pretty much the same thing! What’s more, Spiritual Stones could be used to buy things which could activate Spiritual Items.
Wherever and whenever, Spiritual Stones were vital resources to Chen Xiaobei. He could never have too many of it.
He thought about things like if the white fox had not been so earnest in repaying him, he would have missed the chance of getting the entire lot of 1,000 medium-grade Spiritual Stones. He would have beaten up himself for that loss.
“This is awesome!” Chen Xiaobei’s grinned widened as he counted, “Right now, I have a total of 1,500 medium-grade Spiritual Stones. That’s 1.5 million low-grade Spiritual Stones. Wow, does that mean that when I return to earth, I will be on the list of millionaires in the world of cultivators? Wahahaha…”
Back on earth, having thousands of low-grade Spiritual Stones was already impressive enough. Even the high-octane Tenshou had only 100,000 pieces of low-grade Spiritual Stones.
Bringing the equivalent of 1.5 million low-grade medium Spiritual Stones with him back to earth would make him the wealthiest man on the planet. That was inclusive of the few top-tier ancient factions!
The Tenshou was just a demigod in the tiny Island of Japan, where there was not much to capitalize on.
But the ancient factions in China were different.
China itself was a vast land with an abundance of resource, a bountiful well of many ancient treasures.
That was why the Chinese ancient factions were much stronger than the Tenshou.
In the West, the Blood Descendants were a formidable faction.
And there were also places like magic schools which might have even deeper pockets than Chen Xiaobei.
Of course, these were all but thoughts in Chen Xiaobei’s mind.
He had decided to return home so that he could reunite with his family, not to parade his wealth. This was a special period of time where it was best for Chen Xiaobei to avoid getting into trouble with any of those ancient factions. It was not that Chen Xiaobei was afraid, but it was because Chen Xiaobei’s place in Northern Wilderness Starfield was not established enough yet. If he provoked any powerful enemies during this time, there was a chance that his friends and families would have no place to go!
Chen Xiaobei took out the Spiritual Stones from the bracelet and transferred them into his Infinite Space Ring, and then got rid of the Storage Bracelet.
Once everything was settled, Chen Xiaobei returned to Bei Xuan Faction using the Returning Bracelet!
…
Bei Xuan Faction.
“Where did our kid go again… It’s Duanwu festival tomorrow. We don’t know if he’ll come back…”
Zhang Chui’er sat at the dining table, a bowl of rice in her hand barely eaten.
Without her son by her side, she had no appetite to eat.
“Don’t be stupid!” Chen Zhongfu snorted. “Chen Xiaobei is a grown man now. He has his own career to take care of. What use would it be if he stays by our side all day long?”
“Hmph! Don’t be such a hypocrite!” Zhang Chui’er retorted. “Don’t think I don’t know that someone has been looking at Xiaobei’s picture before going to bed!”
“I…” Chen Zhongfu’s mouth twitched. “Missing my son and letting him go free and to pursue his career are two very different things! They do not contradict each other!”
“Is it too much to hope for that my son would come back to celebrate a special event with us?”
Zhang Chui’er lifted her chin.
“Stop fighting, the two of you! Xiaobei is a filial child. Who knows, he might rush home in time?” Murong Tian said. “I don’t think Xiaoyao will come back to spend time with me for this festival.”
“Yeah! I think Xiaobei will come home!” Old Wang said as he shoved a spoonful of rice into his mouth while researching the latest hero in Mobile Legend.
His job was a streamer but Mobile Legends was his true love.
“Impossible…” Zhang Chui’er said woefully, “Chen Xiaobei had not called us for so many days now. He must be very busy. There’s no way he would come home.”
“Sigh…” Chen Zhongfu exhaled. “Since we moved to Bei Xuan faction, it’s been lonely without our children. it’s only the few of us old folks here…”
Murong Xiaoyao and Qia’er, Chen Xiaobei’s four disciples, Jiang Ziya and Six Eared Macaque were all elsewhere.
This was the first time Bei Xuan Faction was so empty and seemingly so deserted.
When the four old folks sat at the table thinking about the Duanwu festival tomorrow, they were suddenly filled with a cold, sorrowful loneliness.
Swoosh!
Since everyone was not paying attention, they were all startled by a sudden gust of wind.
A silhouette appeared from behind and covered Zhang Chui’er’s eyes, chuckling, “Hi mum! Guess who I am?”
“Huh?” Zhang Chui’er felt goosebumps raising on her skin. “Silly child! You already revealed the answer when you called me mum?”
“Haha! Mum, you really are smart!”
Chen Xiaobei embraced his mother and smiled at the others.
Zhang Chui’er and Chen Zhongfu’s eyes reddened. Even though it had only been a few days, they acted as if they had not seen Chen Xiaobei for a few years.
As Murong Tian was also a father, he too became overcome with emotion.
Even Old Wang put down his beloved mobile phone as reminiscing thoughts filled his mind.
In this world, only familial love and true love would never disappoint!
“I’m back! Tomorrow, we have to party and celebrate!”
Chen Xiaobei broadly smiled from the bottom of his heart.
