Chapter 130: Not my destiny

“This Cultivation Technique… compared to the Supreme Spirit Void Scripture I Cultivate, seems to be quite a bit worse.”

He Xiuyuan’s gaze fell on the paper women. After watching for a moment, he raised an eyebrow slightly.

Looking at the Cultivation Technique performed by these paper women, He Xiuyuan deduced it in his mind for a moment, then shook his head.

“That’s right, a Qi Refining Cultivation Technique displayed so directly here couldn’t possibly be a profound one. Otherwise, these Immortal Cultivation Techniques would be too easily spread.”

He Xiuyuan pondered for a moment, then had a guess in his mind.

After understanding this Qi Refining Cultivation Technique, He Xiuyuan felt there was nothing more to see in the paper women.

At this moment, Jin Xue, who was beside him, leaned over and pulled He Xiuyuan’s sleeve.

“Hehe, this fine wine of yours is really delicious, even better than the wine I brew myself. I heard there are many fine wines in the Mortal world, is that true?”

Jin Xue stared at He Xiuyuan drunkenly, pressing him with questions.

He Xiuyuan turned his head, looking at Jin Xue’s face, which was full of longing for fine wine, and found it somewhat amusing.

This Jin Xue truly only cared about fine wine and nothing else.

However, listening to Jin Xue’s words, He Xiuyuan couldn’t help but recall some of the fine wines he had drunk before, especially the Chang’an fine wine.

At that time, when he went to the City God Temple, he had met the former shopkeeper of Chunxi Restaurant.

He estimated that the one day spring should be complete now. He would go try it if he had the Opportunity later.

However… that one day spring was a bit too expensive.

With that thought, He Xiuyuan unconsciously touched his pocket and sighed, “There are many fine wines in the Mortal world, but they are too expensive. I can’t afford them!”

Jin Xue immediately nodded repeatedly upon hearing this. “Mm-hmm, the fine wines in the Mortal world are really expensive! I snuck out once before, intending to buy some Mortal fine wines to taste, but I couldn’t afford any.”

At this point, Jin Xue’s face was filled with discouragement and helplessness.

The demons beside them had all lost interest in watching the paper women dance. They were all thinking about how to speak up.

And at this moment, upon hearing Jin Xue’s words, they couldn’t help but be stunned, then exchanged glances, thinking inwardly that something was wrong.

“Darn it, when we came this time, we didn’t know that the Fairy up here loves fine wine. If we had known, we would have found some earlier. If we pleased these Fairies, the other two Fairies couldn’t possibly stand by idly.”

“It was a miscalculation; I didn’t think of this point. If there’s an Opportunity next time, I must bring some fine wine up to properly please her.”

The demons immediately wrote this down upon hearing Jin Xue’s words.

The other party couldn’t afford those Mortal fine wines, but they could have Mortals send them to them.

At worst, they could just steal some from the city.

As long as they weren’t discovered by the City God Yin Division, it would be fine.

Meanwhile, Ting You and the other woman above also heard their Junior Sister’s words. After exchanging glances, they both saw a hint of helplessness in each other’s eyes.

For Jin Xue to speak so bluntly, wasn’t she giving these demons an Opportunity to curry favor?

Never mind.

Anyway, Sanxian Island would be closed off from now on, and those demons would find it difficult to come up. Even if they knew, they wouldn’t be able to curry favor anymore.

Jin Xue didn’t know at this moment that some demons beside her were already thinking of using fine wine to please her.

At this moment, Jin Xue looked He Xiuyuan up and down, then thought of herself, and immediately said helplessly.

“Oh, just thinking about all those fine wines in the Mortal world that I can’t afford is truly frustrating. Do you think there’s any way I can both Cultivate and drink those Mortal fine wines?”

Jin Xue thought of the fine wines in the Mortal world, her eyes full of longing.

But the problem was, she didn’t have any silver in her hands.

He Xiuyuan understood Jin Xue’s meaning upon hearing her words.

As Jin Xue had said before, they couldn’t easily leave the island, so getting silver to buy wine was indeed not easy.

As for letting her use a Spell to steal wine to drink, that was absolutely out of the question.

Thinking of this, He Xiuyuan unconsciously shook the gourd in his hand.

Then, a thought suddenly struck him.

“Why not plant some Peach Trees?”

“Why?”

Jin Xue asked, looking at He Xiuyuan with some surprise.

“As the saying goes, ‘In the peach blossom dock, there’s a peach blossom hermitage; beneath the peach blossom hermitage, there’s a peach blossom Immortal. The peach blossom Immortal plants Peach Trees and picks peach blossoms to sell for wine money.’”

He Xiuyuan also thought of himself at this moment.

In the future, if he didn’t have enough silver, picking some peach blossoms would surely be able to exchange for some wine money.

Jin Xue’s heart was filled with joy upon hearing He Xiuyuan’s poem.

Wonderful!

This method is excellent!

While melodious music played, He Xiuyuan and Jin Xue chatted as if no one else was around.

After the paper women danced three times, Zhi Sui clapped her hands, signaling them to retreat.

When the paper women reappeared, they held small porcelain bottles, which contained sweet dew.

This was a specialty of their Immortal Island, extremely rare.

Normally, even they themselves were reluctant to consume it, but today, for this matter, they had no choice but to bring it out.

“I already know the purpose of your visit. However, you have no affinity with me, so I will give you some sweet dew. Take this sweet dew and leave.”

Zhi Sui glanced at the demons present, then her gaze lingered slightly on He Xiuyuan before she spoke.

“These sweet dews are refined using a secret method on my island. Mortals who consume them can cure all diseases and also increase their Dao cultivation by a little.”

“After today, my Sanxian Island will no longer receive guests.”

Zhi Sui spoke very decisively, and the demons present were in an uproar upon hearing this.

They didn’t come up here for just this bit of sweet dew!

Although this stuff could increase their Dao cultivation and made them very tempted, what they most wanted was the Cultivation method.

Thinking of this, the snake demon beside them quickly straightened up, “Fairy, we came for Cultivation. Could you please give us some guidance?”

The snake demon was anxious at this moment, fearing that if he spoke too late, he would be thrown out.

The other demons also echoed, taking over the conversation, hoping to get guidance from this Fairy.

However, Zhi Sui waved her hand upon hearing this. “I naturally know your intentions, but you have not comprehended the profoundness within the dancing girls just now, so you are naturally without affinity with me.”

“All of you, leave.”

Zhi Sui waved her hand repeatedly.

The demons were stunned upon hearing this. Was there some Cultivation Technique hidden within the dancing girls just now?

The demons were dumbfounded at this thought.

However, the paper women beside them had already begun to usher them out.

Facing this gesture of being ushered out, the demons felt unwilling, regretful, and remorseful that they hadn’t looked at these women more closely just now, having missed an Opportunity in vain.

But at this moment, there was nothing they could do but rise and leave their seats, heading down the mountain.
