Chapter 3, all preparations are complete

Zuo Xiaoduo, with a long face, said: "Dad, I am your biological son..."

Who could have imagined that a little girl could be so stubborn

Blood of the fingertips, flawless jade, yin and yang fish, heart of the stars

... ...

Zuo Xiaoduo has grown up a year, how could he not understand Zuo Xiaonian's feelings? Perhaps love and such things are simply not to be mentioned... right? It should purely be that Zuo Xiaonian is reluctant to part with this family and wants to repay her parents' nurturing grace... right?

Zuo Xiaoduo expressed that he was completely drained, unable to complain, and lamented: "I just finished unloading a truckload of goods... It would be great if everyone could just take a break... Sigh."

Zuo Changlu looked at his son with a sidelong glance: "Filial piety... is one thing, but how did you establish this image of being honest, simple, hardworking, and enduring hardships with your nature of not rising early without profit?"

... ...

Zuo Xiaoduo could only feel a breath stuck in his throat, grimacing: "Dad, I also want to have some dignity"

It seems that Xiao Nian has given him money again ... ! ... Fine, I will accompany him to gamble one last time, the final time!

Yes

Zuo Changlu has an excellent temperament and rarely gets angry. Zuo Xiaoduo is also someone who can take a joke, and everyone gets along very harmoniously. Joking aside, it is indeed quite a pity that several shop owners feel that Zuo Xiaoduo cannot cultivate.

Moreover, this item is readily available at the old man's shop

... ...

Amidst the laughter, the crowd dispersed

This is his sorrow. Generally, martial arts students are children around the ages of 8 to 10, but Zuo Xiaoduo, at 17, is still stagnating in the martial arts student class, having been held back for 5 years, and has already become a big joke

Although they laughed, several bosses secretly sighed: "What a good child, why can't he cultivate?"

He picked up a piece, hesitated for a moment on the long road to the left, then put it down, and decisively slapped a piece of radiant Star Soul Jade onto the table: "Take it, let's go!" As the owner of a Star Soul Stone shop, he still had plenty of polished Star Soul Jade, and the quality was quite good

However, during one discussion, it was overheard by Zuo Xiaonian

... ...

That is also true. Everyone should think of a way and privately explore some remedies.

Zuo Xiaoduo pouted, what a coincidence... just in time to see the unloading, such luck...! ... No one else is around, I guess I have to accept my fate and get to work!

This is the last time, which number is it

As for the Heart of the Stars, that is easier to handle, it is the Star Soul Jade! There is plenty of it in my father's shop

Zuo Xiaoduo looked at the large bundle of neatly arranged banknotes on the ground, yet felt no joy in his heart; instead, he was somewhat at a loss as to what to think.

I am right here, I belong to this family, and I am not going anywhere

Zuo Xiaoduo had a face full of frustration: "I just wanted to come and help you... to watch the store for a while"

Get lost

Zuo Xiaoduo called out.

Before the birth of Zuo Xiaoduo, Zuo Changlu and Wu Yuting had already adopted Zuo Xiaonian

After a moment of distraction, I finally hurriedly left the house. After all, this is a critical moment for breaking through the boundary between Yin and Yang, and I cannot afford to be lax; I still need to go to the Star Martial Academy for rigorous training

Zuo Xiaoduo murmured as he stepped out the door

Convenient

With a swift motion, Zuo Xiaoduo wrote down the words, and a smile blossomed on his face: "Your humble son takes his leave"

Bang

Suddenly, I found myself laughing silently.

However, with only 8,000 star coins, Zuo Xiaoduo purchased a piece of high-quality white jade, nearly transparent and about the size of a fan, which he had long been eyeing. Adding his own savings and the 10,000 given by Zuo Xiaonian, Zuo Xiaoduo surprisingly still had a balance of 7,000 left.

Zuo Xiaonian finally breathed a sigh of relief, only to feel a slight flush on her face

But after all, they are one's own children, watching them grow day by day, how could one not love them? When Wu Yuting's son Zuo Xiaoduo was about three or four years old, she had a sudden thought: if one day she and Zuo Changlu grew old, and their pair of children relied on each other and never parted, would it not also be a beautiful thing?

Thus, although her innate talent is exceptional, Zuo Xiaonian resolutely refuses to accept any sect's training, regardless of the sect or how exalted the practitioners may be who come to persuade her, Zuo Xiaonian always declines without hesitation

Supreme quality

It has delayed my daughter's future

As for the blood at the fingertips? It's a matter of a single stroke! And that yin-yang fish—I'll draw it!

Zuo Xiaoduo felt that there must be a story behind this, but he did not know the reason

When Zuo Xiaonian was three years old and her star soul talent had already been detected, Wu Yuting unexpectedly became pregnant and gave birth to Zuo Xiaoduo

Ah, I owe him. No wonder children are said to be the creditors of their previous lives..." Zuo Changlu shook his head and murmured, "Creditors... let them be creditors then..."

Wu Yuting and Zuo Changlu have long regretted their decisions, feeling as if their intestines have turned green

After a long while, he bent down to pick up the money and put it into his pocket

It is precisely for this reason that Zuo Xiaonian once again proposed to marry Zuo Xiaoduo, prompting Zuo Changlu to respond with stern words

... ...

Cough cough... just get a piece of Star Soul Jade... cough cough. A palm-sized one will do, a larger one would be even better, and if it were as big as a tabletop in sky blue, that would be even more wonderful...'' Zuo Xiaoduo, with a greedy expression, circled around his father and eagerly massaged his shoulders.

Just now, after unloading the goods, Xiao Duo rushed to carry more, and he wouldn't let us or his father move the heavy stuff, yet he didn't say a word... Sigh, my son can't cultivate, but where does this thoughtfulness come from? If he could be this considerate, even if he still couldn't cultivate, I would be overjoyed.

The shop owners next door came to help one after another

The saying "a crane standing among chickens" is indeed true. Zuo Xiaoduo is not only the oldest but also the tallest among them. Even the tallest classmate only reaches his shoulder... How embarrassing

Right at the door, it flashed and then disappeared

A loud bang sounded at the door

Ha ha ha ha ... ...

When stepping out, she once again wore an expression of indifference that repelled others from a thousand miles away, as cold and clear as the moon in the vast cold of the palace.

Looking at his son's silhouette, Zuo Changlu shook his head

Zuo Xiaoduo had a face full of blood.

"Dog, huh?" Zuo Changlu was unloading goods and was somewhat surprised to see his son come in: "You arrived just in time, come help move it inside."

This is the name of the small shop, which perfectly aligns with the laid-back personality of the owner—directly named after himself, simple, straightforward, and practical

"If you don't speak up, just get lost. What purpose do you have in coming here to help me?" Zuo Changlu was very familiar with his son's bad behavior and looked at him with disdain: "Speak up, what do you want to do?"

It must be said that this world is still very beautiful

Suddenly felt wealthy and extravagant

This is truly unexpected

Thank you, Father Emperor, for the bestowal

It is a pity for this child, who is both filial and honest, simple and hardworking; heaven is blind...

Thus, although this large cart of Star Soul Stones may not seem abundant, it is indeed very heavy

"... ... A junior martial artist who has trained for five years still has the audacity to care about face, how shameless... ..."

... ...

Zuo Xiaoduo, drenched in sweat, rushed to do more work, carrying everything into the store. In the end, there were several pieces of super large star soul stones weighing tens of thousands of pounds. The father and son, panting heavily, moved them down with the help of a few people, and everyone was so exhausted that they were sticking out their tongues.

If it were not for the fact that Zuo Xiaonian's cultivation speed had not slowed down, Zuo Changlu and Wu Yuting would probably feel even more guilty

Dad, you and the uncles can move the small ones, I will take care of the large ones

Hehe... Zuo Changlu rolled his eyes at his son and said, "If you had any ambition, even if you had become a warrior by now, you would be able to carry it down by yourself without even panting, esteemed junior martial artist."

Zuo Xiaoduo had heard his parents talk about this matter many times as he grew up, and both of them felt it was quite miraculous... clearly something they did not want...

Zuo Changlu scoffed: "So, what do you want? Let me make it clear, I have no money! If you want money, go ask your mother."

Having watched this child grow up since childhood, it feels just like my own child

Long Road Star Soul Stone Shop

The nearby shop owners who came to help immediately burst into laughter

Zuo Xiaoduo has gone out

Two worlds... what two worlds!" Zuo Xiaonian's pretty face grew increasingly red: "Hmph, coward!"

Zuo Xiaonian's feelings are clear and evident to Zuo Xiaoduo

Just go away

Although there are both advanced and basic levels, it seems that at this stage, I do not really need anything too advanced

A young couple, having not given birth to their own child, has already adopted a baby girl

If I had known, I would have let Sister Xiao Nian come..." Zuo Xiaoduo stuck out his tongue. If Zuo Xiaonian were here, she could lift all the goods in the entire vehicle with just one hand

From this, Zuo Xiaonian also understood her origins; she was not the biological child of her parents. However, this little girl had actually considered herself the daughter-in-law of the Zuo family since she was seven or eight years old

Zuo Changlu scoffed, "There is no need for assistance... The day after tomorrow, you will start school, Master Wutu. You are still standing still in the Wutu class, standing out like a crane among chickens. I am truly proud of you"

Dad, please give me a call when you are unloading the truck, don't carry it all by yourself

Everything is in place

Leaning against the door, her charming face flushed like the dawn. She touched her own chest, recalling how Zuo Xiaoduo had almost pounced on her with a claw. Her face turned even redder as she murmured, "If you dare to pounce, you will be doomed!"

Thus, the name of Zuo Xiaoduo is quite fitting

Then, carrying it, he went to his father's Star Soul Stone shop

Zuo Changlu was taken aback for a moment, and an involuntary smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he scolded, "Do I still need you? Get lost!"

A large and powerful vehicle, weighing nearly a thousand tons, carries star soul stones, which have a density much greater than that of high-grade jade. A piece the size of a fist weighs over a hundred pounds

At the very least, this flawless jade is not as expensive as the dreamlike world; the most valuable stone in the Star Soul Continent is the Star Soul Stone; and things like jade and similar items are merely aesthetically pleasing stones and are not worth much at all

Perfect!

One of them encouraged, "I see that Xiao Duo is the type to achieve greatness later in life, and he will definitely graduate! Xiao Duo, what do you think?"

Zuo Xiaoduo happily cradled the perfectly cut round white jade, with the Star Soul Jade tucked under his arm, triumphantly making his way home
