Chapter 344: Chapter 344: The Song Family Siblings
Translator: 549690339
Pretending to be one from the Dragon Valley, that’s really a big deal.
Dragon Valley is a formidable force in the Eastern Region, a superpower that no other force in the Central State of the Eastern Territory can match. If they were to find out about this impersonation…
Tsk, tsk, tsk, the consequences would be unthinkable.
At this moment, the man dares not speak, fearing that if he says another word, AnRan will expose them. But on second thought, there was no point in it.
After all, standing right in front of them was a genuine representative of Dragon Valley.
“Alright everyone, disperse. If today’s affairs pleased you, feel free to stop by Anwu Family and grace us with your patronage,” AnRan unabashedly called out to the crowd.
The people around nodded and smiled in agreement. Regardless of AnRan’s status, just the presence of someone from Dragon Valley is enough to shock them.
Jiang Xiaobai then, without minding what others were thinking, waved his hand for someone to take the two fraudsters away and entered a secret room with AnRan.
This was AnRan’s private quarters, a huge room with great natural light. The decor was the epitome of luxury.
It was almost equivalent to the accommodations in Dragon Valley!
Sitting in his chair, Jiang Xiaobai casually sipped tea and gazed at the two standing fraudsters, looking perfectly at ease.
“Hmph, now that we’ve been caught, do what you will,” declared one.
“If you want to humiliate us, spare yourself the effort!”
The man’s face was calm as he accepted his fate, indifferent to whatever might come his way.
At this, Jiang Xiaobai laughed lightly, “There’s no need to humiliate you. We’re all just trying to make a living. I’m only here to ask you how you managed to do this.”
Jiang Xiaobai then pointed to the counterfeit medicinal pill placed on the table beside him.
It took some talent to create such convincing fakes.
“Hmph, why should I tell you?”
“We’re heading down a dead end anyways. What difference does it make if we tell or not? All those large factions have the same disgusting faces. Everyone knows.”
The man snorted coldly, while the woman beside him maintained a strong and fearless demeanor.
Jiang Xiaobai was curious about the pair.
Had they been victimized by a powerful faction before?
Just as Jiang Xiaobai was about to ask, he suddenly noticed that the two of them looked somewhat similar from certain angles.
“Are you two siblings?” Jiang Xiaobai narrowed his eyes.
“What does it matter whether we are or not? Does it really matter at this point?” scoffed the woman.
“What’s your name?” Jiang Xiaobai asked, turning to the woman. The woman remained silent. Jiang Xiaobai could only smile wryly.
“I’m not trying to do what you think. I don’t care about your past scams. In my view, the world operates on the principle of survival of the fittest. If you can successfully deceive someone, that’s your capability, and those without it can only be deceived!”
“Cultivators, unlike ordinary people, seek to improve in all aspects. There’s no need for us to pity each other.”
“I approached you because I think it’s a pity. Otherwise, your lives wouldn’t matter to me.”
Upon hearing Jiang Xiaobai’s words, the siblings fell silent. AnRan, too, remained quiet.
Jiang Xiaobai’s seemingly simple remarks echoed the true state of the world for cultivators. Each was out for their gain, willing to do anything to advance.
They were probably the most self-centered people around.
After a while, it seemed like the siblings had accepted something. The man looked at Jiang Xiaobai and asked, “You seem a bit different from those from the large factions. But what exactly do you want to do? Can you clarify?”
“Names. I need to know your names. How else should I address you?” Jiang Xiaobai laughed a bit in frustration.
“Song Xi.”
“Song Yu.”
The two replied in unison, confirming that indeed they were siblings.
After that, Jiang Xiaobai had a heart-to-heart conversation with the siblings.
As it turned out, these two were once the children of a small sect leader, leading a harmonious life until one person in their sect inadvertently offended someone from a dominant power. Even though it wasn’t his fault, the offender used his influence to suppress them.
That major force then found their sect and completely annihilated it, leaving everyone in the sect dead. The siblings survived by mere luck amidst the carnage.
Having witnessed the dreadful state of their sect and the deaths of their family and comrades, they were filled with grief and seething hatred toward the oppressive forces.
From then on, the siblings harbored deep resentment for these large factions and discovered through many years of experience that the favoured pastime of these powerhouses was to flaunt their power and oppress the weak.
If it weren’t for these oppressive forces, their small sect wouldn’t have met such a tragic fate.
The siblings were specifically targeting these major powers, especially those who were known to oppress the weak. They made sure to strike them each time.
Thankfully, the siblings were talented enough to have reached the early stages of Dividing the gods. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to accomplish their revenge.
Having understood their circumstances, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t say much. The world was full of sorrowful stories.
If he had not crossed over and possessed the system, the original owner of his body would also have led a miserable life.
Shaking his head to clear these thoughts, Jiang Xiaobai turned his gaze back to the siblings.
“Enough of that for now. I’m here to ask who among you made this pill and how you did it,” Jiang Xiaobai stated calmly.
The siblings exchanged a glance and eventually, the sister, Song Yu, spoke, “I made it.”
“How did you do it?”
“Could you make one for me right here and now?” Jiang Xiaobai squinted.
Song Yu frowned, “That’s not possible. After all, I need it to earn a living.”
“What a joke! You’re using this to earn a living, but anyone who has seen a real Cleansing Pill wouldn’t fall for your fraud.”
“But remember, not everyone is part of a major faction like you.”
Song Yu scoffed.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai laughed lightly, “Enough of this argument. Now, make one for me to see.”
“If you agree to do it, these two pills will belong to you.”
Saying this, Jiang Xiaobai presented a real Cleansing Pill.
The moment the siblings saw the pill, their eyes widened.
“How…How do you have a Cleansing Pill?”

“This is a genuine product!” Song Yu exclaimed.
Jiang Xiaobai smiled, “It is genuine. So, will you do it or not?”
“Your fire poisoning has gotten quite serious, hasn’t it?”
Song Yu’s face flushed red, acknowledging that her fire poisoning was indeed as severe as Jiang Xiaobai suggested.
She could not refuse Jiang Xiaobai’s offer.
