The sun in summer was scorching and blazing hot, but it didn’t bring the slightest discomfort to Tang Xiu. On the contrary, he felt peaceful and comfortable smelling the sea breeze. He particularly felt satisfied even though he just gave out an ancient cultivation manual, two bottles of pills, and the Golden Dragon’s head.
The jade dog was the object he had been urgently seeking. As of now, he had already obtained the jade ox, tiger, dragon, rabbit, monkey, and rooster. Combined with the jade dog, he had seven pieces of the zodiac jade carvings. He had also obtained the whereabouts of the jade pig, which was in the possession of Singkuo, Singluen’s big brother from the Dark Shaman clan. What’s more, Miao Wentang seemed to have caught the news about another piece of zodiac jade carvings as well.
“It’s about time, Boss.”
Zhang Jue strode closer nearby and respectfully reported.
Nodding at him in response, Tang Xiu put the jade dog into the interspatial ring. He then looked in the direction of Mu Qinxin’s departure and let out a faint smile to say, “You know, the Ouyang House is slightly interesting, more so regarding this future mother-in-law of mine. She’s not a cultivator, yet is able to reach the state of the Unity of Heaven and Man and has become an expert at the peak stage of Qi Refining. She could be said to be the most impressive expert in the ancient martial arts circle I’ve ever met. It’s no wonder the Ouyang House was able to become the biggest family in Jingmen Island.”
“I know a lot about the Ouyang House.” Zhang Jue chimed in, “Its Patriarch’s Lady is indeed the most special figure. She’s very mysterious, just like a dragon whose head and tail are always shrouded in fog. I recall that this family has faced several crises in the past, and she was the one who solved them all.”
Tang Xiu turned to look at him and smilingly asked, “What’s her background, exactly?”
“I dunno about that,” said Zhang Jue. “I’m not able to investigate it.”
“You can’t investigate it?” Tang Xiu frowned and said, “That’s very interesting in and of itself. Alright, I’ll draw a picture when we arrive in Thailand later. I want you to take a photo of it with your smartphone and send the picture to Xiaoxue. Tell her to check the design on it.”
“What picture?” asked Zhang Jue.
“Did you not notice the ancient jade ornament worn by my mother-in-law around her waist?” asked Tang Xiu. “That jade ornament is something that is usually worn by some particular people, usually to distinguish their identity.”
Suddenly, Tang Xiu remembered something and immediately took out his handset. He dialed Xue Yu’s cell number and, after his call was picked up, he asked, “There’s something I wanna ask about the Ouyang Family of Jingmen Island. It’s about its Patriarch wife, Mu Qinxin’s background. How much do you know about her?”
“Quite a lot,” answered Xue Yu in a soft voice.
“Tell me about it. What’s her origin?” asked Tang Xiu.
“Mu Qinxin is a member of one of the secluded hermit clans,” said Xue Yu. “Members of these clans seldom come out to interact with the secular world. They also never use many common products from the outside world, even if society has gone through rapid development and advancement. They generally seclude themselves from the outside world and live like people of ancient times. What they pursue is a sense of a carefree life without secular worries, as well as freedom from any bindings. Mu Qinxin, however, is a different kind of breed of her clan. I once followed Ancestress to visit the Mus of these hermit clans, so I know about them.”
“Where is this hermit clan living?” asked Tang Xiu.
“In some mountains in the Yunnan Province,” answered Xue Yu.
“Judging from a member of this clan being able to reach the peak of Qi Refining Stage, this clan is by no means simple.” Tang Xiu nodded and said, “I presume the elders of this clan could even be much more impressive. Most important of all is that they are not even cultivators, nor are they likely martial artists. On the contrary, they seem to have taken another path of cultivation.”
“What they are cultivating is their psyche and heart,” said Xue Yu.
“Ah, you actually know about it too.” Tang Xiu smilingly said, “Alright. I’ll call you again about this issue later as I’m about to leave for Thailand. I’ll see you again once I come back.”
“Okay. Pay attention to your safety.”
Some dangers always occurred whenever Tang Xiu went out, and since Xue Yu was aware of them, she couldn’t help herself in urging him to be careful.
“No worries!” replied Tang Xiu with a smile. “Those who have the ability to kill me have not yet been born in this world, so there are no threats to me. It’s actually you who needs to pay attention to yourself, though. You just had your cultivation progress extremely sharply and it’s not all that good for you, so you have to stabilize the foundation of your current realm and quickly control your power as soon as possible.”
“Alright, will do.”

As the clock struck midnight, Tang Xiu arrived in Bangkok, Thailand’s capital, along with the trio of Spectre, Zhang Jue, and Gu Tao. Bangkok is the biggest city in Thailand, hailed as the “City of Angels”, and was also the second-largest city in Southeast Asia. The city is the center of all aspects of Thailand’s politics, economy, trade, transportation, culture, religion, and even science and technology.
Bangkok is also a trading center for precious metals and gems, accounting for 44% of the total economy of the country. In addition, its tourism industry is also very developed and one year obtained the popular vote as the most popular tourist city in the world. Hence, there are many foreign tourists here.
