My Wife Divorced me At the Start but I Gained a Billionfold Repayment System Chapter 21 : Chapter 21

Chapter 21: An Acquaintance Forged in Battle

Before long, Lu Xunxian was escorted into the most prestigious private room in the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.

“Honored guest, please wait a mont. We have already inford the Pavilion Master, and he will be here shortly.”

The attendant receiving Lu Xunxian and his group was no longer soone at the Core Condensation Realm like before, but an elder at the Saint Monarch Realm.

“It is fine. We can wait.”

Lu Xunxian smiled and waved his hand, signaling for the elder at the Peak of the Saint Monarch Realm to leave.

Only then did the man feel as though a great burden had been lifted. He quickly closed the door and hurried away.

As soon as the two little ones entered the private room, they began exploring it from top to bottom.

“Back then, your father brought you here too. You were just too young, so you do not rember it.”

Looking at the two children, Lu Xunxian smiled.

“Daddy, have we really been here before?”

No longer caring about playing around, Lu Xiaoyao ran over to Lu Xunxian and asked curiously.

At the ntion of those old days, a trace of nostalgia surfaced on Lu Xunxian’s face.

“Yes. At the ti, you were both still very little. I carried you here in my arms.”

Once Lu Xunxian brought it up, the two little ones beca even more curious about their childhood.

He did not grow impatient in the slightest. Instead, he began telling them stories from those days, while the two children sat beside him and listened with utmost seriousness.

...

“What? You are saying that man has co again?”

The Myriad Treasures Pavilion was a magnificent palace, and above it was the place where the Pavilion Master cultivated in seclusion.

At this mont, he was in closed-door cultivation, attempting to break into the Immortal Realm beyond the Saint Emperor Realm.

The so-called Immortal Realm was the stage where all the Spiritual Energy within one’s body had to be converted into Immortal Power.

The more Immortal Power one converted, the stronger one beca.

Once all Spiritual Energy had been fully transford into Immortal Power, one could break through into immortality and ascend on the spot.

Having his cultivation interrupted so abruptly, Chen Wangu, the Pavilion Master of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, frowned tightly, his face full of displeasure.

But the mont he heard that the visitor was Lu Xunxian, he instantly could not sit still anymore.

“Are you certain?”

“Absolutely. He is already waiting in the Immortal Room.”

The elder of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion wore a solemn expression as he spoke to Chen Wangu.

Hearing this, Chen Wangu did not dare delay in the slightest. He hurried to his feet and rushed toward the Immortal Room.

Not long after, outside the Immortal Room, Chen Wangu straightened his clothes, then pushed open the door with a smile on his face.

“Daoist Friend Lu, it has been a long ti. I have truly missed you.”

“Daoist Friend Chen, enough with the pleasantries. I need these items.”

Lu Xunxian had no ti to exchange idle words with Chen Wangu. Besides, their relationship was not all that close to begin with.

Seeing how distant Lu Xunxian was acting, Chen Wangu could not help but sigh. Putting on an injured expression, he said, “I have been thinking about you day and night, Daoist Friend Lu.”

“Cut the act. Do you want to spar with again?”

Hearing Lu Xunxian say that, Chen Wangu shuddered and hurriedly took the materials list from his hand.

Back then, when Lu Xunxian had co to purchase the thod for completing an Immortal-Grade Spiritual Root, he had brought more than enough Spirit Liquid to pay.

The problem was that those materials were extraordinarily rare throughout the entire Tiansheng Continent, so of them virtually impossible to buy at any price.

And as one of the Three Great rchant Guilds of the Tiansheng Continent, the Myriad Treasures Pavilion naturally possessed those materials. It simply refused to sell them.

So in order to obtain the materials needed to complete the Immortal-Grade Spiritual Root, Lu Xunxian had chosen without hesitation to take action.

Then he made Chen Wangu willingly sell the materials to him.

That was also why the Core Condensation Envoy from earlier had been so terrified upon seeing Lu Xunxian. The first ti Lu Xunxian had co, that sa man had been the one who received him.

After taking the materials list, Chen Wangu’s expression grew grave after only a single glance.

“Daoist Friend Lu, so of the materials you need will be difficult to handle.”

“Difficult to handle? Then do not handle them!”

Lu Xunxian’s face darkened as he made a move as though he were about to strike.

That instantly brought back Chen Wangu’s mories of the dark days when Lu Xunxian had rubbed him into the ground. He quickly waved both hands and said, “Not difficult, not difficult at all.”

“Give a little ti. I will gather everything you need as quickly as possible.”

Seeing Chen Wangu agree, Lu Xunxian tossed out a Storage Ring.

“The contents in there should be enough to pay for the materials.”

Chen Wangu caught the Storage Ring and inspected it.

After seeing what was inside, his breathing imdiately turned hurried. He looked at Lu Xunxian in disbelief.

“You trust that much? What if I run off with all this Spirit Liquid?”

Lu Xunxian did not answer. He rely looked at Chen Wangu as though he were staring at an idiot.

Only then did Chen Wangu suddenly react.

That was right. Who was the man standing before him?

This was the person who had once pinned him to the ground and beaten him senseless.

And for so reason, perhaps just his imagination, Chen Wangu had the vague feeling that Lu Xunxian had grown even stronger.

At that thought, Chen Wangu could not help but shiver.

One had to know that for an ordinary Saint Emperor, even improving by the slightest amount usually took decades, or even centuries.

Compared to that, Lu Xunxian was practically a monster.

Still, Chen Wangu did not dwell on it any further. After that great battle in the past, he and Lu Xunxian had already turned hostility into friendship.

So he no longer intended to make things difficult for Lu Xunxian.

He summoned an elder at the Peak of the Saint Monarch Realm and handed over the materials list, instructing him to pass the order along. Only then did he sit down inside the Immortal Room.

“What are you staying here for?”

Just as Lu Xunxian stood up, he saw Chen Wangu sit down and could not help frowning.

Chen Wangu, however, replied as though it were only natural, “What? We fought each other once, did we not? Does that not at least make us friends?”

“I do not have friends like you.”

Lu Xunxian shook his head, then took Lu Xiaoyao’s and Lu Qingyun’s hands, preparing to leave.

But at that mont, Chen Wangu noticed the two little ones and said with a sigh of emotion, “I did not expect these two little ones to have grown this much already. Co, Uncle has prepared gifts for you.”

As he spoke, he seemingly produced a twelfth-grade spirit sword and a pink twelfth-grade spirit armor out of thin air.

The mont they saw the exceedingly handso spirit sword and the pink spirit armor, the two little ones were instantly rooted to the spot.

Watching this scene, Lu Xunxian could not help sighing. He lowered his head and looked at them.

“Since it is a gesture of goodwill from this uncle, then go ahead and accept it.”

With their daddy’s permission, Lu Xiaoyao and Lu Qingyun eagerly rushed over to Chen Wangu and accepted the spirit sword and spirit armor from him.

The mont she put on the spirit armor, Lu Qingyun could not wait to run over to Lu Xunxian.

“Daddy, look! Does Qingyun look pretty?”

“You do. You do. My Qingyun looks just like a little fairy.”

Lu Xunxian praised her without holding back at all.

Off to the side, Lu Xiaoyao kept showing off his spirit sword, looking incomparably delighted.

But at that mont, Chen Wangu noticed the White Jade Horse standing nearby.

Although it had taken Human Form, he still recognized its true body at a glance.

His expression imdiately turned grave as he looked at Lu Xunxian and asked, “Daoist Friend Lu, does this White Jade Horse belong to Qin Guyue?”

“Oh? You know him?”

Lu Xunxian raised a slight brow.

Although he had no idea who Qin Guyue was, since Chen Wangu seed inclined to talk about him, Lu Xunxian was more than willing to listen.
