Chapter Family Mission Arc . 6 : Soul Ambrosia tree seed
" hello "
Honglong Yang Dan heard a very familiar voice , he raised his head to look at the person that called him.
" Ai !!" Without even wasting his time , Honglong Yang Dan began to run away as if a rat has seen a wild cat.
Honglong Yang Dan wasn't that far before he was blocked by Tan Bo Zhao , he tried to flee yet Tan Bo Zhao was faster and stronger compare to him so he wasn't able to flee . Tan Bo Zhao caught him and rolled his body before locking him in submission.
" Young master Xiao , how do you do ? It has been long time that we have met with each others " Honglong Yang Dan faked a smile while watching the carefree Xiao Sheng. Xiao Sheng was leisurely approaching him.
Xiao Sheng gave a huge smile and said " Brother Honglong , it's been really a long time since we had met with each others. "
" hehe…" Honglong Yang Dan chuckled lightly and said " young master Xiao , it's. .. its not that I didn't wanted to bring you your things it's just that , just that , just that I was late " he hesitated while talking with Xiao Sheng and also was dripping cold sweats on his forehead.
"It wouldn't do good , brother Honglong " Xiao Sheng was standing in front of Honglong Yang Dan while smiling gently. Nobody could read his real intention even if they were to try reading him.
Xiao Sheng gently stretched his right arm toward Honglong Yang Dan and asked " you know me brother Honglong , I am not type of person that resorts to violence so hand over the part of my deal and I will act like nothing happened "
"Hehe…" Honglong Yang Dan sighed . Seeing him surrender , Xiao Sheng nodded toward Tan Bo Zhao while the latter understood his meaning and left Honglong Yang Dan from his grip .
Shuddering his shoulders , Honglong Yang Dan felt relief and said " young master Xiao is truly benevolent person that seeks the path of peace and zen. " he cupped his fist toward Xiao Sheng while forcing smile on his face.
Xiao Sheng didn't had time to mess with him so he said " hurry up and give me what I want " Honglong Yang Dan could only shake his head helplessly and take out a pouch from his spatial ring before giving it to Xiao Sheng.
Holding the pouch , Xiao Sheng frowned slightly. Watching him frown , Honglong Yang Dan gulped before smiling wryly and taking out a black lamp that had four mirrors on each one side and black flame burning inside. This black lamp was called [ Eternal Flame ] lamp .
[ Eternal Flame ] is one of Ancient Flames . And it's traits is to find treasures !! Yes , [ Eternal Flame ] lamp is used for seeking treasures and also known as [ Treasure Seeking Flame lamp ]. It doesn't have burning ability but can warm around its surrounding. It's dark yet have ability to light the darkness.
Holding the [ Eternal Flame ] lamp and the pouch , Xiao Sheng nodded in satisfaction and looked at Honglong Yang Dan "Okay , it was nice doing business with you. If you want to do more business with me in the future than please contact me " Honglong Yang Dan's lip twisted at his words.
Xiao Sheng ignored his reaction and looked at Tan Bo Zhao and said " pick that Red Flower Dragon Plant , it will be beneficial for your Body Cultivation. "
" thank you , young master " Tan Bo Zhao happily showed his gratitude before picking up the Red Flower Dragon Plant and storing it in his spatial ring gifted by Xiao Sheng.
Watching him take away his Red Flower Dragon Plant , Honglong Yang Dan wanted to say something but Xiao Sheng added " take it as compensation for delaying " Honglong Yang Dan face twisted while he cursed Xiao Sheng and his 18 generations inside his heart.
Xiao Sheng said " don't act like it's huge lost for you . Why dot we do this , you give me the mirror you have hidden while I will give you same amount of something in return ?" Xiao Sheng smiled and licked his lips while watching Honglong Yang Dan. Honglong Yang Dan suddenly shudder in fear and retreated his steps before he cupped his fists together and said " young master must be joking , how can a little gravedigger like me can have something worthy of trading with you . This little gravedigger suddenly remembers something so I must leave for now. We shall meet next time young master "
He was about to leave away without even caring about anything but he could hear Xiao Sheng telling him from behind "that mirror is no use to you , why not trade it with me ? I will give you ' The Story' while you give me the mirror. You should know what ' The Story ' amounts in the world of gravedigger ? "
Honglong Yang Dan turned his head back and watched Xiao Sheng smiling for a while before turning around and said " I ,I think I will have to think about it before doing trade with you "

" of course take your time , but make sure if you feel like trading the mirror , make sure you to come at me first " Xiao Sheng told him. He has been eyeing on the mirror that Honglong Yang Dan owns for serval years and haven't manage to get his hand on. Although the mirror isn't Immortal Artifact , it is still valuable than any ordinary Immortal Artifacts.
Honglong Yang Dan walked away in the mess of crowds.
"Young master , is it alright for us to let him go ?"Tan Bo Zhao asked after seeing Honglong Yang Dan leave . Xiao Sheng just waved his hand in the mid air and said " let him go , after collecting all this things and store them away . They are quite valuable in their own ways" after collecting all the items that Honglong Yang Dan was selling ,they left the market.

[ Steel Mantle City ]
The Xiao family residence was guarded by guards that were equipped in steel armours and wearing warm jackets as outfit with wool hats on their heads .
The residence was 200 meter square huge and had wooden buildings.
Inside the family patriarch's room ,there were two people sitting in an ancient equity manner.
One was Xiao Zhongmao , wearing long white robe while another was a mid age beauty. She was in her middle age yet she looked young and charming , filled with youth and maturity , her eyes were pretty and lips was rosy . Her figure was young and curvy with her two heavenly peaks hanging on her chest . Wearing ancient robe of female version with lily flower patterns around she seem mesmerising. Her name was Nan Yiren , step mother of Xiao Sheng and also the second wife of Xiao Zhongmao. She has 3 daughters and 2 sons .
They were right now feeling very nervous because there was a letter on a wooden table that came from Xiao Zhongmao's first wife !! Real mother of Xiao Sheng. In reality , Xiao Sheng's name came from two different families. Xiao from father side while Sheng from his mother side !! Hench , Xiao Sheng.
Nan Yiren softly asked " Lord husband , what did big sister wrote in letter for you to be so nervous ?" Xiao Sheng smiled wryly and replied " Dear wife , my first wife has wrote something that is impossible in this life "
" Lord husband , am I allowed to see the letter ? " Nan Yiren asked . Xiao Zhongmao didn't thought anything and handed the letter to her . Nan Yiren began to read .
< Fucker Zhongmao , how are you doing nowadays ?
I am sure you must be cursing me all the day and night for forcing myself on you that day and taking your first time .haha….
I didn't send you this letter to ask if you are healthy or not , doing good or not ? But simply because my precious son's 14th birthday is near so I know your silly warrior's rule of fulfilling damn missions to prove their wroth so I can guess that you must also have forced him with a family mission.
You must be thinking why this damn bitch hasn't died yet , right ? Haha… what should I tell you , I thought of fulfilling your dream and went directly to my enemy's empire all alone to wage a battle. I thought if they were in number of 1 millions than they could kill me but what can I say ?
Sigh * they were just too weak to kill me. So my dear husband this month my empire is gonna engage in war with 3 powerful allied nations , wish me that I would die in war . Hehe… according to my understanding about you , i know you hate me deep to your bone at the same time you love me more than you hate me which is the reason that made me deeply fall in love with you . You hate me while you also love me at the same time.
Ah ! I nearly forgot to tell you , after my son reaches 20 , be sure to sent him to my empire cause I have already announced my precious son as a Crowned Prince and everyone knows about him. Don't let him die until than . If he died than who will succeed the throne in the future ?
Your sweet Rival , Empress "
"Hehe…" after reading the letter , Nan Yiren could only laughed awkwardly while Xiao Zhongmao could only sigh helplessly.
" that lass hasn't still grown yet "

After returning to the family residence , Xiao Sheng and his group walked to his private yard that covered 30 meter square land . Inside the room was luxurious furniture and decorations while on the middle of the room was small grass field . Xiao Sheng had waited for so long for this moment. He took out the pouch and unraveled the pouch.
Wong Xue saw a small white seed size of pinky finger taken out from the pouch so she asked in curiosity " young master , may I ask what this seed is ?" Han Tian and Tan Bo also looked at him in curiosity.
Xiao Sheng looked at the small white seed and asked her instead of answering " do you know what Ambrosia means ? "
"Yes , of course . It means fruit of the gods or something sweet " Wong Xue replied.
" correct , and have you ever seen a god ?"
"No " Wong Xue denied.
Xiao Sheng looked at Tan Bo Zhao and asked him" dig the ground at least 5 meter deep in the middle of grass field. " he pointed toward grass field.
Tan Bo Zhao nodded and began to dig the ground with a shovel that was placed right at there.
Xiao Sheng began to elaborate " in the world there are true Ambrosia born from different ways and requirements. Eating those true Ambrosia will give both mortals and immortals powers , strength , aids in cultivation and so. And this thing in my hand is called Soul Ambrosia Tree Seed that was born from soul of countless and grow by devouring souls and bore fruits by devouring souls ,Hench it's name Soul Ambrosia Tree Seed. If not for the [ Eternal Flame ] lamp , I wouldn't have even known about it's existence. "
"Wow !!"everyone looked at him in admiration.
" master you are very cool "
"Master is the best "
" big brother is so cool "
"Hehe…" Xiao Sheng giggled before telling them " but keep this secret from everyone. It's our little secret "
Everyone nodded their heads in union.
" for now let's just beseech it here because Soul Ambrosia Tree needs souls as fertility to grow . Until we don't have any souls to nurture it , we wouldn't be able to grow it . "
"But young master "
"Beauty Xue , I am not so heartless to use soul of innocents so I will only use soul of sinners . Happy now ? "
Wong Xue nodded her head shyly making Xiao Sheng's heart flutter.
'Damn !! she is just too cute for me . Even in my previous life I didn't came across a girl as cute as her ' he smiled wryly.
He looked at the Soul Ambrosia Tree seed and sighed. One after another legendary treasures are jumping in his hand in this new life . It is like Heaven has blessed him with unlimited luck and fortune .
'If only Heaven was so great to send me Chaos Scripture , it would be great ' he wasn't satisfied with just Immortal Treasures but even wanted Divine Treasures !!
