Chapter 247: Improper Family Tradition (Please subscribe!)
  After leaving Piaoxiang Tower, Tong Ying sent a message through her spiritual consciousness, notifying Granny Wen to come. She agreed on a place with her and took Xu Zhiyu there with her.

"Why is Fellow Daoist Xu so unhappy? Is it because you think my remuneration is too little?"

At this time, she switched to a male voice again. After hearing the question, Xu Zhiyu answered with energy:
  "Senior has nothing to do with it, it is my Xu family's own business. When I was checking out just now, I actually saw two family members wandering around Piaoxiang Building. I am worried that if things go on like this, they will become despondent, so I am a little worried that the family tradition is not right and will make my senior laugh. Got it!"

Tong Ying chuckled and said:
  "As the saying goes, 'What's good at the top will be bad at the bottom'. Fellow Daoist Xu, you should look for the reason within yourself!"

Now that the elixir to cure her father has been found, if she was not sure that Xu Zhiyu was telling the truth, she was already convinced when he asked her to find someone to protect his safety. Combining her master's calculations with the visions she had seen at the end of her life, she was basically certain that the jade box contained something that she had traveled all over the Qin Kingdom to find, so she was in the mood to be with her at this moment. Xu Zhiyu made a joke.

"Senior, I misunderstood. This is my first time to a fireworks venue like this. I have never set foot in it before!" He explained with a wry smile.

After walking for less than a moment, they arrived at a remote place near the edge of the city. Just after they stood still, an old man walked over. As soon as he saw Tong Ying, he said anxiously:

"Miss, you've made me so anxious! If anything goes wrong with you, I will be the one to blame!"

"Grandma Wen, don't worry, am I doing well? By the way, come with me and I'll tell you something!"

Tong Ying first explained with a smile, and then she and Granny Wen walked a few feet away from Xu Zhiyu to talk.

As for what was said, he didn't hear it. It seemed that the two of them had used some tricks, but as they spoke, they looked at him frequently.

The communication between the two was not smooth at first. Granny Wen kept shaking her head, as if she disagreed with what Tong Ying said. Later, she didn't know what Tong Ying said to her, and Granny Wen nodded reluctantly, and at the same time, she nodded. Looking at him with scrutinizing eyes, this made him feel a little strange.

After drinking tea, a smiling Tong Ying and a helpless Granny Wen returned to him and said:

"Fellow Daoist Xu, I have discussed it with my mother-in-law just now. She will protect your safety from now on. As long as the Nascent Soul cultivator does not take action, she can handle it!"

"In addition, there are people in the branch here who are at your disposal. I have already explained this to Granny Wen, and Xiaowen is also one of my own, so I am not afraid of them being disobedient."

"As for the golden elixir monk who promised you to protect your family, I will send a high-level messenger to inform him when I leave Fangshi. I will explain to him in detail every matter. However, he will not go to your family's mountain, but will Protect in secret, you can also inform your family elders about this in advance!"

"Okay, I'm leaving now. Goodbye, Brother Daoist Xu, Granny Wen!" After saying that, she immediately turned around and walked towards the entrance of Fangshi. If she hadn't needed to tell Granny Wen something, she would have stepped in by now. It's time to return home, and now she can be said to be as eager to return as possible.

Xu Zhiyu didn't feel much about her departure. Instead, he thought it was good that she left. But Granny Wen was different. She looked at the back of the person leaving in the distance with worry on her face.

"Senior Wen" he just started, but was interrupted by Granny Wen.

"Don't call me that. From now on, you can call me Mr. Sun. I will change my body and get along with you as a male cultivator. As the lady has ordered, I cannot show my true self to others for the time being!"

"I understand, I will call you Mr. Sun from now on!" Xu Zhiyu replied respectfully. From now on, this person will be his bodyguard, so he has to be more polite.

"I will obey you from now on, Miss, and I will call you Young Master!" Granny Wen said.

"No, you can just call me Xiao Xu or Xiaoyou. I would never take the title of Young Master!"

"Okay, it's up to you! Where should we go now? Should we go directly back to your store?"

"No hurry, Mr. Sun, let's go somewhere first!" He sneered.

It seems that in the past few years since I have been away, Uncle Twenty-nine has become somewhat neglectful of these family children, he thought to himself. At this time, he had been staying in a corner not far from Piaoxiang Tower for almost two hours, and finally waited for the two tribesmen who had passed him in Piaoxiang Tower. It was already late at night. They were very drunk. They were supported by two female cultivators and were walking towards the Xu Jiabao Building. Xu Zhiyu did not alert them, but called Granny Wen to follow.

Unexpectedly, they did not return to Baocui Building, but went to a high-end single-family courtyard rented to casual cultivators, activated the formation, and the four of them walked in together.

"Hehehehe, not only do you look for flowers and ask willows, but you also stay with prostitutes. You are really a good son of the Xu family!" Staring at the closed courtyard door, Xu Zhiyu wished he could go in and dig out the two unsatisfactory clan members. , but finally endured it and took Granny Wen back to Baocui Tower without saying a word.

Although it was already Haishi, Baocui Building was still brightly lit, and customers came to visit. Xu Zhiyu did not stay for long, but first arranged for Granny Wen to stay in the room next to him.

Originally, Mother-in-law Wen meant that she could live with him to prevent sudden changes, but he refused. He felt somewhat inconvenienced. Besides, they were separated by a wall. If there were any changes, Jindan Zhenren's spiritual consciousness would not be able to reach them. The reaction can definitely help you in an instant.

After he was done, he went back downstairs and called Xu Zhiyuan, who was doing nothing, to come over and ask questions.

"Hello, Brother Nineteen, what do you want to see me for?"

"That's right, who will manage the city's escorts in the past few years when I'm gone?" he asked.

"As for the 19th brother, some of it will be managed by the 36th brother Xu Zhikai, and some will be managed by the 38th brother Xu Zhiqiang." Xu Zhiyuan has been sent to Fangshi by his family for three or four years, so he is very familiar with these things, so he answered .

"Then the guards of the Family Treasure Building are also drawn from the Fangshi Guards, right?"

"Yes, Brother Nineteen, isn't this the rule you made at the beginning? It is said that Baocui Building is extremely important to my Xu family, and must someone be sent to patrol it at night?" Xu Zhiyuan asked in confusion.

"Okay, let me ask you again, whose turn should be on duty tonight?" he asked.

"I don't know about this. We are under the management of Uncle Twenty-nine and are mainly responsible for the operation of Baocui Building! However, there is a jade slip with patrol details on the counter, but only foundation-building monks can view the jade slip. If you want to see it, , I’ll get it to you now!”

"Okay, go get it!" he ordered.

In a moment, Xu Zhiyuan left and came back again, holding a jade slip in his hand. He handed it over and asked at the same time:
  "Brother Nineteen, what happened?"

Xu Zhiyu smiled and shook his head and said:

"It's okay! It's almost closing now. Go and clean up with the clansmen and have a rest early. I'll go first! By the way, just pretend that what happened today never happened. I will report to Twenty Uncle Jiu explained it!"

After saying that, he patted Xu Zhiyuan on the shoulder and returned to the second floor, but instead of going back to his room, he came to the family meeting room.

After sitting down, he penetrated the jade slip with his spiritual consciousness and looked at the list of family members who should be responsible for patrolling Baocui Building tonight. After reading it, his face instantly turned livid, because there was something shocking inside. There was a clan member who went to Duyuan with a prostitute in his arms. He also knew these two people. They were Xu Zhichong, the 22nd eldest child in the family, and Xu Zhitang, the 25th eldest son.

Xu Zhiyu, who was sitting in the main seat, suddenly felt tired. He did not hesitate to put himself in danger for the sake of his family. What he got in exchange was not the diligent training and hard work of his clan members to improve their cultivation, but instead arrogance, extravagance, debauchery, and prostitution!
  For a moment, he wanted to leave the family and work alone, but thinking about his elderly parents and his grandfather who had high hopes for him, this idea gradually disappeared.

As time went by, the sky soon dawned, but until dawn, the two figures he was looking forward to still did not appear around Baocui Tower.
