My Fairy Growth System

After organizing these items, Yu Qingtan put most of them into the System Space, and burned away some low-value items and the corpse of the purple-robed elder with a Fireball Talisman.

Transferring the children from the Spirit Beast Pouch to the System Space, Yu Qingtan was somewhat grinding her teeth in anger.

There were actually more than fifty children.

"Damn the Extreme Path Demon Sect!"

Putting aside the children for now, Yu Qingtan began to tidy up.

The sky was already darkening.

It wasn’t long before You Xiwang came to fetch Yu Qingtan, and this time they went directly to the Arena in the Immortal City.

By this time in the Arena, most cultivators had already arrived early.

"That Hu Mazi praised Miss Qingtan sky-high at noon, claiming there’s no one like her on earth. I don’t believe she’s that beautiful, I’ve seen Miss Qingtan myself."

"Indeed, that Lu Shusheng also boasted that Miss Qingtan is not only unparalleled in playing the zither and dancing but has also created a new painting style, akin to a Painting Skill grandmaster, a rare talent even for the All-World Academy. I’m quite curious to witness it for myself."

"Heh heh, I’m here to see the legs. I heard Miss Qingtan wore a new type of long stockings that make her legs seem like they’re casting an enchantment, impossible to take your eyes off."

"You old letch, Miss Qingtan is such a fine lady, how can you be so filthy. I’m here to appreciate the performance."

"You guys are out of the loop, aren’t you? Those new-style long stockings are called ’silk stockings,’ and the new skirt ’bodycon dress,’ with new shoes known as ’high heels.’ You know about Zhi Lan Pavilion, right? The clothing store opened by Tianxiang Pavilion? They’re selling like crazy today. The clothes are pretty, but they’re darn expensive."

"Indeed, especially those silk stockings. I’ve heard they can only be made from a few spiritual materials, so they’re all based on first-grade Lower Grade Magic Artifacts, you can’t buy them for less than two hundred Spirit Stones."

"Heh heh, I managed to get a Mortal-grade bodycon dress and a pair of Mortal-grade high heels for my wife. She looked amazing in them, and we didn’t leave the house all afternoon."

"It’s said that the loose cultivator who yesterday won the Immortal City cultivators’ drawing for resisting the wave of Demonic Beasts was surrounded by a crowd wanting to buy that painting after exiting the Arena. Finally, someone from the Enforcement Team spent two thousand seven hundred Spirit Stones to purchase it, making a large sum of money. I wonder if I could be so lucky?"

"Hmph, if I got Miss Qingtan’s painting, I would definitely cherish it. I would never sell it."

Amidst the cultivators’ discussions, Yu Qingtan made her entrance.

The performance was basically the same as last night; the only difference was the scene Yu Qingtan painted was different. However, all of them depicted the battle scenes between Immortal City cultivators and Demonic Beasts during the resistance of the beast tide.

Since the audience was new and with the publicity from yesterday’s spectators, the response to the performance was even more enthusiastic.

The Spirit Stone rewards reached 12,726 Lower Grade Spirit Stones and 2 Medium Grade Spirit Stones.

It was less than last time because rich cultivators like those from the three major families had already come yesterday.

However, Yu Qingtan was very satisfied.

[Charm Points: 4362]

[Affection Value: 95]

The harvest of Charm Points and Affection Value was even more than yesterday.

After the performance, Yu Qingtan went to Hundred Treasures Pavilion accompanied by You Xiwang.

When Meng Xiyao heard that Yu Qingtan had arrived, she directly invited the two of them to the second floor.

Then, to You Xiwang’s astonishment, Yu Qingtan followed Meng Xiyao to the third floor, while he was asked to wait on the second floor.

Today, Meng Xiyao was also wearing silk stockings, high heels, and a bodycon dress. As she ascended the stairs, she left You Xiwang gawking and parched with thirst.

"Qing Tan, the clothes you designed are really nice. They’re comfortable and look very good. I bought quite a few sets at Zhi Lan Pavilion."

When they reached the third floor, Meng Xiyao spoke.

Yu Qingtan sighed at how quickly Gongsun Yurong had acted, having sold the item today.

"Elder Meng flatters me too much!"

While they talked, the two arrived at a room on the third floor.

The protector and an elder of the hundred treasures Pavilion, the Golden Core Real Person Gong Ping, was sitting in the room, savoring tea.

"Qingtan pays respects to Elder Gong."

"No need for formalities, come sit. Have you made a decision about my earlier proposal?" asked Gong Ping.

Yu Qingtan and her companion took a seat.

"To answer your question, Elder, it is indeed an honor to be a first-level guest elder of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion. As for joining the Sect of Commoners, I still need time to consider."

Upon hearing this, grins appeared on the faces of both Gong Ping and Meng Xiyao. Real Person Gong Ping said, "No worries, the Sect of Commoners is always open to you."

"Thank you for your understanding, Elder. Additionally, I’d like to inquire about the Sect of Commoners’ stance towards the Extreme Path Demon Sect?"

"The Extreme Path Demon Sect, they stop at nothing for the sake of cultivation, and can rightly be deemed utterly evil. Naturally, our Sect of Commoners is in opposition to them. Alas, our power is currently too weak to confront the Extreme Path Demon Sect directly. I’ve heard that Miss Qingtan has a friend who was abducted in broad daylight by a revered adept of the Extreme Path Demon Sect, and we will keep an eye on this matter. Should there be any news, we’ll notify you immediately," Gong Ping said with a sigh, intuitively guessing her intention when Yu Qingtan mentioned the Extreme Path Demon Sect.

"Many thanks, Elder!"

Yu Qingtan stood up and bowed in gratitude.

"There’s no need for such formalities, Qingtan. From now on, we’re all part of the same family,"

said Meng Xiyao, while also handing Yu Qingtan a jade token that represented being a first-level guest elder of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion.

Yu Qingtan accepted the token and then asked, "Do you both know of the black market in Suichuan Immortal City, where there is a shop supported by the Extreme Path Demon Sect that traffics in human lives?"

Gong Ping appeared somewhat surprised at her question, watching Yu Qingtan closely as he replied, "Of course we are aware of it; however, our sect has only recently expanded in this direction. Furthermore, there are many complicated factors involved, so it is inconvenient for us to take action. Nonetheless, I’ve heard that today, a mysterious cultivator at the initial stage of Foundation Establishment from Tianxiang Valley forcibly killed the sitting cultivator of that shop, Golden Daoist Gao, who was at the middle stage of Foundation Establishment."

Hearing this, Yu Qingtan realized that her direct inquiry might have revealed something to him, so she said, "That person is a friend of mine. He rescued a group of abducted children and entrusted me with finding them a safe place. I wonder if the two Elders here might have a way to help arrange this."

Gong Ping and Meng Xiyao exchanged a glance, with Gong Ping speaking, "It seems Miss Qingtan has a wide circle of friends. However, that Golden Daoist Gao was a nephew of Huoyun, a Golden Core Cultivator from the Extreme Path Demon Sect, so Tianxiang Valley might face some trouble. As for those abducted children, our Sect of Commoners can certainly help arrange something for them."

After their last interaction, although Yu Qingtan had doubts about the future development of the Sect of Commoners, she still trusted Gong Ping’s character and respected the sect, which was why she came to ask for their help with the children.

Yu Qingtan took out the Spirit Beast Pouches, and Gong Ping and his companion examined them before taking them.

"The Extreme Path Demon Sect is indeed despicable to the core and must be overthrown sooner or later. Rest assured, Miss Qingtan, for those children without a Spirit Root, we will send to the Mortal Realm to be cared for and raised. Those with a Spirit Root will be nurtured in the Cultivation World. After they turn fourteen, if they wish to join our sect, that would be best; if not, we’ll let them go their own way," Gong Ping said.

In the Suichuan Cultivation World, one was considered an adult at the age of fourteen.

"Thank you, Elder Gong. Additionally, that friend entrusted me with these goods as well—would it be convenient to sell them at the Hundred Treasures Pavilion?"

Yu Qingtan took out a pile of loot she didn’t need from Tian Changfeng and Golden Daoist Gao and put them into her Storage Bag and Spirit Beast Pouch.

"That would certainly be convenient, and we will pay the market rate for everything. That is one of the benefits of being a first-level guest elder of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion!" Meng Xiyao said.

"Huh, there’s even a Golden Core Cultivator’s mark on this Storage Bag," said Gong Ping at that moment.

He was looking at Golden Daoist Gao’s Five Directions Storage Bag.
