Dragon King's Son-In-Law

Translator: Noodletown Translated  Editor: Noodletown Translated

Standing at the entrance of the valley anxiously, Duan Yao looked respectful, and her request for elixirs sounded sweet and cute without a trace of previous aggression.

However, no reply came from the valley.

Worried, Duan Yao took out another blue voice transmission note and said, “Hearing the great name of Master, I’m here to offer 16 level 5 spiritual herbs, Return Dragon Grasses, in exchange for one beauty pill.”

Standing behind a hill in the distance, Hao Ren watched Duan Yao in secrecy.

Due to the array formation built by Zhen Congming, the mist around the valley could affect spiritual sense and reduced visibility. That was why Duan Yao didn’t know that Hao Ren was watching her from a hill.

Duan Yao had thought that the master in the Herb King Valley would meet her or at least talk to her after she revealed her background.

To her surprise, this ‘master’ completely ignored her. In the end, she had to express her real requests honestly.

Now, the reputation of the Herb King Master had spread to Sixth Heaven through the first-tier sects on Fifth Heaven.

Hearing that one could get beauty pills from Ethereal Summit on Fifth Heaven, Duan Yao stole 16 level 5 spiritual herbs from Sky Mountain Sect’s herb garden and came to Fifth Heaven to trade for the elixir pill. This time, she didn’t even bring Luojia, the level 5 snow lion. The truth was that she couldn’t steal Luojia this time because her father took Luojia with him all the time so that Duan Yao couldn’t sneak out with it to cause trouble.

“Master, please trade the elixir pill with me. I, Duan Yao, the daughter of the sect master of Sky Mountain will be grateful for your help!”

Receiving no response from the valley, Duan Yao gritted her teeth and drew out the third voice transmission note and sent it into the valley.

The voice transmission notes were unique since they could penetrate through array formations. As a result, they were very expensive. To obtain a beauty pill, Duan Yao had used three such notes, which was a high price.

By sending the first voice transmission note, Duan Yao had hoped that the Herb King Master would give her a beauty pill due to the fact that she came from Sky Mountain Sect on Sixth Heaven. That way, she could return the level 5 spiritual herbs to the sect, and no one would know.

By sending the second voice transmission note, she offered to trade the level 5 spiritual herbs for the beauty pill. In fact, the value of 16 level 5 spiritual herbs was way higher than one beauty pill, but the pills were hard to come across. Besides, the beauty pills made by Herb King Master on Fifth Heaven had excellent quality!

Since she didn’t receive any response from the valley, she had to send the third voice transmission note and disclose her identity to show her sincerity. As the daughter of the sect master of Sky Mountain Sect on Sixth Heaven, she wouldn’t lower her status to trade for pills in the three nearby small sects.

Besides, if she could befriend this master who was in Nascent Soul Realm, it would benefit her, and her father would probably refrain from punishing her.

After releasing three voice transmission notes, Duan Yao stood at the entrance of the valley and looked at the white mist with clenched fists and expectation.

“This girl is the daughter of the sect master of Sky Mountain…” Standing in the distance, Hao Ren couldn’t help smiling; Duan Yao revealed everything about her background in those three notes.

The silence in Ethereal Summit meant that Xie Yujia and others were waiting for his decision. At this thought, Hao Ren flew to the side of the valley and entered the array formation

“Gongzi!”

“Hao Ren!”

“Uncle!”

Sure enough, the girls shouted the moment Hao Ren entered the valley.

From the inside of the valley, they could see Duan Yao’s vague figure at the entrance. Through the array formation Zhen Congming built, they could see the outside of the valley while the people outside couldn’t see the inside of the valley.

“This stupid woman! I was planning to go to Sixth Heaven to find her! It’s just as well that she came here!” Zhao Yanzi rolled up her sleeves and yelled.

Actually, she was wearing a t-shirt; her action was her way of revealing her aggressive personality.

“Little Zhumu, calm down!” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili hurried to stop her.

With three voice transmission notes in her hands, Xie Yujia asked Hao Ren, “What do we do?”

She knew that Sky Mountain Sect was a sect on Sixth Heaven, Hao Ren had once stolen the secret technique from them, and Zhao Yanzi had a personal grudge against Duan Yao. However, she was surprised to learn that this young girl was the daughter of the sect master of Sky Mountain. After all, Sky Mountain Sect was a big sect on Sixth Heaven.

“Do you have any beauty pill with you?” Hao Ren asked her.

“Yes. I have a dozen of them,” Xie Yujia answered.

Due to the equal amount of market demand for the beauty pills and foundation establishment pills, the production of these two kinds of pills was the greatest among all the pills that Xie Yujia made. She had been more proficient in making them and had a large stock of both pills.

An elixir for cultivation, foundation establishment pills couldn’t be taken in large quantities. However, beauty pills had no side effects and could improve one’s complexion besides sustaining one’s beauty, becoming a luxurious skin care product for the female cultivators. Even Lu Linlin and Lu Lili had asked for two pills from Xie Yujia.

The safest and most profitable way to make money in the world of cultivation was to make beauty pills. Of course, the making of beauty pills required advanced elixir making skills and abundant spiritual herbs. Except for Xie Yujia, the Herb King Master who could make elixirs in large quantities, none of the traditional elixir masters would waste their time on making beauty pills which couldn’t bring any benefits to cultivation.

“Then, give her one beauty pill,” Hao Ren said.

“What!?” Zhao Yanzi who had been blocked by the Lu sisters jumped up suddenly.

Every woman loved to have beautiful looks, and the female cultivators were no exception. Compared with mortal women, female cultivators could easily live for hundreds of years and thus had a more ardent wish to sustain their beauty.

For most female cultivators, the price of hundreds of spirit stones was too high, almost as expensive as a foundation establishment pill which was craved by most of the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators. However, after getting the foundation establishment pill, they would be at least mid-aged when they reached the Foundation Establishment Realm. If they acquired beauty pills at that time, they could only retain their mid-ages looks.

As the daughter of the sect master of Sky Mountain, Duan Yao enjoyed all kinds of cultivation resources and didn’t lack foundation establishment pills that were craved by most cultivators.

With top-tier talent, she was taken good care of by several powerful cultivators at Nascent Soul Realm since she was born. At about two years old, she had been taught by her Uncle-Master, who was the most senior and powerful Nascent Soul Realm cultivator in the sect.

That was why she had reached the Core Formation Realm at an early age of 16.

However, Sky Mountain Sect which excelled in elixir making didn’t know how to make beauty pills since none of the elixir masters wanted to spend their time on the elixir that could only sustain looks but had no effects on realm elevation. Even if they tried to make them, they failed, wasting lots of precious herbs.

Duan Yao tried to force some of the elixir masters in the sect to make beauty pills, and the experiments all failed. After knowing these incidents, her father forbad all the elixir masters in Sky Mountain Sect to make Beauty Pills and ordered them to focus on the foundation establishment pills and other elixirs which were useful to the disciples. Otherwise, they would be kicked out of the sect.

Discouraged by the failures and reprimanded by her father, Duan Yao turned her mind to purchasing beauty pills and asked some of her senior brothers in the sect to search for them on Fifth and Sixth Heavens. However, none of them could bring her news about the pills.

Last time, she used the excuse of White Sand Sect’s incident to do some investigation with her Senior Brother Ye on Fifth Heaven. However, instead of finding beauty pills, she had made enemies with Zhao Yanzi and Hao Ren.

After two months of grounding, she was released from confinement in the back mountain, and she planned to play obedient in the sect to placate her father. However, when she heard that the Herb King Master who was living in Ethereal Summit on Fifth Heaven could make beauty pills, she was tempted and decided to slip onto Fifth Heaven to ask for the pills.

If she could get the beauty pill, she would be satisfied even if her father gave her a good beating!

“Hey! Hey!”

Seeing Hao Ren walking to the entrance of the valley with a beauty pill in his hand, Zhao Yanzi ran over immediately and spread her arms to stop him.

“You can’t give it to her!” Zhao Yanzi glared fiercely.

“She is lingering around Ethereal Summit. If Sky Mountain Sect follows her here, it won’t be a good thing for us,” Hao Ren said with a frown.

“Well!” Zhao Yanzi spread her arms and looked at Hao Ren with a pout. “You… you find her pretty, right?”

Some unnamed jealousy rose in Zhao Yanzi’s mind, realizing that Duan Yao was in fact quite beautiful, despite her rude manners.

“Hao Ren must like her since he wants to give her a beauty pill! Besides… She is the daughter of the sect master of Sky Mountain Sect, which sounds quite dashing!” she thought.

Suddenly, Zhao Yanzi found Duan Yao to be a significant threat to her! Young, beautiful, vivacious and came from a good family! She was even at a higher realm compared with Zhao Yanzi!

“She even calls him a pervert! Maybe she is interested in him as well!” she thought.

“I don’t care! You can’t give her the beauty pill!” Gritting her teeth, Zhao Yanzi continued to stand before Hao Ren with her arms spread as she thought, “This Duan Yao is a great threat to me! If she likes Hao Ren, I don’t even have the strength to stop her! Besides, this Duan Yao looks like a fighter, not someone who will easily back down like Xie Yujia!”

Exasperated, Hao Ren glanced at Duan Yao who was outside of the valley and sighed, putting away the pill. He just didn’t want to make trouble for themselves. Besides, one beauty pill wasn’t something precious for them.

However, Zhao Yanzi hated Duan Yao and wouldn’t want to give her anything.

“Ok. I won’t give her the pill if you can make her leave,” Hao Ren said.

“Ok. Just watch how I do it!” Gritting her teeth viciously, Zhao Yanzi drew out her Purple Green Treasure Sword and jumped onto Little White before flying out of the array formation from the back of the valley.
