The cheat system is useless, but I have the strongest living dad.

Chapter 56 Feng’s Bath Soup

After everyone finished their training, they went to Xiangyuan for dinner, and the headmaster personally escorted them to their private room.

Holding the menu, the manager smiled and said, "Fairy, would you like to continue with the lunch menu?"

Shen Yao thought for a moment and said, "Eighteen dishes, keep the main soup the same, but change everything else."

"Alright, fairy." The gardener replied and went to make the arrangements.

After eating and drinking her fill, as Shen Yao was leaving Xiangyuan, she coincidentally ran into the middle-aged cultivator she had seen at noon and his disciple.

They were still at the counter, but this time only the middle-aged cultivator and He Chen were there; his son was not seen.

Shen Yao thought to herself, "This uncle has it tough. He has to wait for his disciple for lunch and his son for dinner in the afternoon."

Fate is a wonderful thing. As everyone walked through the corridor from Xiangyuan to the courtyard, Shen Yao saw the uncle's rebellious son.

At this moment, the uncle's unfilial son was blocking a cultivator at the entrance from the front hall to the courtyard hall.

The cultivators tacitly slowed down to observe the scene.

The cultivator blocked at the door had a fair complexion, cold eyes, and a thin figure. He was also wearing a light purple brocade robe, which Shen Yao guessed was their disciple's uniform.

The unfilial son held an unsheathed sword and stood in front of the gaunt disciple, the hilt almost touching his face.

The unfilial son was extremely arrogant, his face contorted with rage, his eyebrows raised high, his eyes glaring, and his teeth bared.

Ignoring whether there were other cultivators around, the rebellious son said arrogantly, "Chu Yun, go eat your bran cakes and don't try to freeload at my father's place."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yun's expression grew even colder. Without arguing with the rebellious son, he turned and left.

Having achieved his goal, the rebellious son was smug, as if he had won a great victory. He spat at Chu Yun's back and turned to Xiangyuan triumphantly, muttering as he walked, "Poor bastard, ptooey, I'll make you get lost sooner or later."

Shen Yao watched a scene and felt very sorry for Chu Yun. Even in the world of cultivation, he could still see 'school bullying'.

As I passed through the front hall, I heard murmurs again.

'That Chu Yun, I heard he's a mid-grade fifth-level cultivator with six spiritual roots.'

"Huh? Fifth-grade, mid-level. One more grade and you'll be an Immortal! And you're still putting up with this?"

"Sigh, I heard it's because he's too poor that the son of the Tianhe Sect leader dislikes him."

"Are you kidding me? A mid-grade fifth-rank official, how poor could they be? Poor? Brother, is your information accurate?"

"Tch, if you don't believe me, fine. How would I know why he's poor? He's definitely very poor."

……

Shen Yao didn't understand either. Even if she didn't join a group to hunt high-level beasts, she could easily hunt some mid-level beasts and sell the materials, and she wouldn't be poor.

If she can't figure it out, she'll stop thinking about it. Anyway, it's none of her business. She's not going to hand out "perfect coins" and do charity work everywhere just because she sees someone poor.

I asked the shopkeeper and found out that there are several bathhouses in the west of the city, but none of them have hot spring pools. They all have hot spring pools made with special magical artifacts made of fire spirit stones.

The largest bathhouse was owned by the Feng family, and its name was quite casual: Feng Family Bathhouse.

The name of the bathhouse reveals the Feng family's confidence; they don't need a fancy or elegant name to attract customers and receive praise.

They set off on three cloud-riding vehicles and went together to the Feng family's bathhouse.

The Feng family's bathhouse was not located on the main street, but rather in a large, enclosed courtyard at the far northwest of West Street.

At the main gate of the mansion, there were also the Tiger Gate Envoy and a team of guards.

A bathhouse, yet it has more grandeur than a guesthouse.

It should be noted that the guesthouses in each place are all run by the local government, that is, by the True God Sect.

From this perspective, the Feng family's strength in Qiwu City far surpasses that of the True God Sect in Qiwu City.

Shen Yao was increasingly looking forward to the Feng family's treasure appraisal event. Even if there was no Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Yang Fruit, there would definitely be other treasures.

It's a pity we didn't have a communication code before, otherwise we could have asked Zhaohua about it.

The Tiger Gate Envoys of the Feng Clan's Bathing Hall were all sixth-grade, five-elemental-roots.

Upon seeing the six visitors, three of whom possessed the seventh rank and four spiritual roots, and three of whom possessed the eighth rank and three spiritual roots, a Tiger Gate Envoy immediately stopped them, saying, "This is the Feng Clan's Bathhouse. Those who are not guests of the bathhouse are not allowed to enter."

Shen Yao said, "We're here to take a bath."

The envoy from Humen glanced at her: "Did you have an appointment or an introduction?"

The innkeeper hadn't mentioned any of these rules, so Shen Yao honestly replied, "We didn't make an appointment, nor did we have any referrals."

The Humen envoy's attitude was extremely poor: "I'm sorry, everyone, please leave."

Everyone looked a little embarrassed. They had come over excitedly, but were stopped at the outside and were sent away before they could even go in.

Shen Yao noticed the disdain in the eyes of the two Tiger Gate Envoys and felt unhappy. However, she still needed to find a way to infiltrate the Feng Family Treasure Appraisal Meeting, and it was not a good time to make enemies.

"Forget it, let's go and check out other places," Shen Yao said, leading everyone towards the roadside.

Just then, the three cloud riders hadn't left yet, and everyone was preparing to board one when another cloud rider appeared on the road. The cloud rider stopped by the roadside, and an elder got off and headed straight for Shen Yao.

Shen Yao took a look and, lo and behold, it was a familiar face—the manager of Dongcheng Accessories.

Manager Xu began to bow from afar: "Oh my, fairy, I saw you on the clouds, what a coincidence!"

Shen Yao returned the greeting, saying, "It is indeed fate. I never expected to meet an immortal here."

Manager Xu: "I see you're leaving? Where are you going?"

Shen Yao glanced back at the Tiger Gate Envoy at the main gate, thinking that since Steward Xu had come here, he must be either a hot spring guest or a cultivator from the Feng family.

Shen Yao promptly filed a complaint: "I am new here and heard that the Feng family bathhouse is the best bathhouse in Qiwu City, so I brought my sister and attendants to bathe here, but I did not know that the bathhouse has many rules and regulations, and they stopped us outside."

Manager Xu comes to the bathhouse every day to report the profits to Feng Xuanxianfan, and I have never heard of any rules or regulations governing this.

The two Tiger Gate Envoys, seeing that Manager Xu and the leading fairy seemed quite familiar with each other, felt somewhat guilty and exchanged glances.

Hearing the fairy speaking to Manager Xu like this, she lowered her eyes even further, not daring to meet Manager Xu's gaze.

Manager Xu understood immediately. It must be those two Tiger Gate Envoys who, seeing that the fairy's group was of low rank and dressed simply, just like him half a day earlier, failed to recognize the wealth fairy.

Manager Xu warmly invited her: "Other cultivators may have to follow the rules, but there are no rules for a fairy. Fairy, please come with me and don't pay any attention to them."

The cultivators looked pleased. Since Manager Xu was so eloquent, Shen Yao had to give him face and was also very willing. She thanked Manager Xu and invited everyone to follow him inside.

Manager Xu and Shen Yao walked side by side, leading the way, and casually started a conversation: "I am very happy to see you again today, Fairy. I still don't know your name. May I ask?"

Shen Yao said, "Steward Xu, you're too kind. My name is Shen Yao, and this is my younger sister, Shen Yu. It's a pleasure for us sisters to meet you today, Steward Xu."

Manager Xu smiled broadly: "May I ask where the fairy resides? And what brings you to Qiwu City?"

Shen Yao almost laughed at Manager Xu's question.

Where is my home? Xuanhu Town, but I can't say.

Why did you come? Pfft, you can't exactly say you came for the Feng family's darling, can you?
