Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses Chapter 225 - 176 Chatting (Seeking Subscription)

The next morning, Xun Xian and Yuchi took a carriage heading towards the location of the rchant guild.

On the carriage, Xun Xian looked at Yuchi with much puzzlent.

Yuchi had two dark circles under his eyes, resembling a night owl.

Yet his face frequently broke into a bright and clear smile, showing a mouthful of big white teeth.

"Yuchi, what did you do last night? You look completely drained?"

Xun Xian asked curiously.

Drained? Was it that obvious? Yuchi was slightly surprised.

Then he pretended to be nonchalant and calmly said, "Nothing much, just feeling a bit tired these days."

"Last night, I was thinking about a lot of things and didn’t get much rest."

"Is that so?" Xun Xian rolled her eyes at Yuchi.

If she hadn’t known Yuchi for so long, she might have believed him.

Her eyes lit up as she leisurely pulled a long strand of hair from Yuchi’s shoulder.

The strand fell calmly between the two of them.

"Oh? Haha." Xun Xian looked at Yuchi with a look that said "I knew it."

"Who left hair on my clothes? It’s really inconsiderate." Yuchi replied earnestly.

Xun Xian was speechless for a mont; he didn’t even blink when telling lies.

Yuchi, on the other hand, pretended as if nothing had happened and looked out the carriage window.

Hmm, the scenery of Jiangzhou City is beautiful.

As for last night, I spent quite a long ti at the Ascension Gate.

It was mostly because I hadn’t returned to the Ascension Gate for a while, and needed to bond with the disciples.

Recalling the clear and adorable expressions of the young girls, Yuchi felt that even if he died instantly, he would have no regrets in this life.

And when the four disciples confird they’d go out during the New Year’s, it wasn’t just any ordinary joy.

Even the cautious and worried Feng Dongran had a lot of smiles on her face.

Taking them out to have fun would be quite a prestigious thing to do.

As for leaving this morning, Yuchi also reminded the disciples to pay attention to the Ascension Gate’s situation.

The current Ascension Gate had improved significantly, appearing more ostentatious than before.

If so cultivators visited the Ascension Gate, the disciples should not act rashly.

Yuchi ant for them to contact him through the Immortal Stone, allowing him to handle things.

"Let’s hope no sect people discover the Ascension Gate."

"Right now, I don’t want the Ascension Gate to appear in their eyes; otherwise, if even one person cos, the Ascension Gate might be turned into a tourist attraction."

...

Inside the rchant guild, Yuchi hadn’t seen such a busy scene for a long ti.

In two or three months, the river water would be completely frozen.

Now was the ti to rush the work, and the guild had to handle many trivial matters daily.

Just entering the courtyard, he could hear the accountant’s abacus clattering like a nonstop keyboard, making the entire guild extrely busy.

Yuchi didn’t plan to disturb anyone and walked around the residence quite low-key.

He rely strolled around the guild’s residence a couple of tis to see if there was anything unusual.

No unusual places were found, but the magistrate’s assistant ca over to visit on his own.

Invited by the assistant, he brought Yuchi to the governnt office for tea.

"I almost feel embarrassed to uncover your intentions; isn’t this tea just an excuse to gather intelligence?"

Sitting in the eting room, Yuchi looked at the assistant with a sheepish smile and completely saw through his intentions.

"Assistant, long ti no see," Yuchi casually remarked.

"Long ti no see, Chairman."

The assistant sat down beside Yuchi, leaning towards the tea table in a very flattering manner.

"I heard that the Chairman went to Jiangzhou City, staying there for about a month."

"I wonder if there were any troubles encountered in Jiangzhou City, or if there’s anything we can assist you with?"

The assistant was indeed sly, speaking in a cunning way.

He clearly wanted to know what Yuchi did in Jiangzhou City but didn’t ask directly.

Instead, he offered to help with any trouble Yuchi might have encountered.

The benefits were directly theirs to take.

However, for Yuchi, it didn’t matter much:

"Thank you for the concern, Assistant."

"This ti, my trip to Jiangzhou City was quite uneventful."

"I just wandered around and t a few people."

There’s no need to discuss many things with soone like the assistant, as people like him had loose lips; once he knew, the entire Xufu Town would know.

People fear fa like pigs fear being fattened; Yuchi didn’t want to make a big fuss in Xufu Town now.

"Ah, that’s good, that’s good."

"It’s certainly a relief to hear the Chairman didn’t encounter any danger!"

"The Chairman is impressive, indeed."

The assistant grumbled that Yuchi wouldn’t reveal the real situation but refrained from pressing further.

He thought for a while.

As Yuchi drank tea leisurely, he said with a friendly smile:

"Recently, your second brother, Yuchi Erlang, has shown impressive performance in our governnt office."
