Equipment and money were the two lifelines of every warrior.
Which warrior out there was not made with real money? There was the old saying: ‘The poor are rich in martial arts; the warriors’ path had always been the license of the rich!

The Aurora Clan, which originally had its inherited fortune, was not in any danger of running out.
Now, this monetary backing was gone, so of course, there would be no way for them to carry on their huge clan’s business anymore.

Radix stared at Xia Fei with pitiful-looking eyes, causing the latter to feel very uncomfortable.
The meaning of this gaze could not be any plainer: Xia Fei was a Spiritualist—one of the Orthodox Spiritualists that numbered no more than a hundred across the Alpha Universe to boot! Since the Aurora Clan had

declined, Radix was really hoping that Xia Fei could do something to revitalize it.

“Forget it.
Let’s first think of a way to get into the Aurora Clan, and then we’ll decide after,” said Xia Fei as he lit a cigarette.

After three months of grueling cultivation, Fuchen dropped Xia Fei off at the Tarot Galaxy and left.
He instructed him repeatedly not to act recklessly.
In the event that his nemesis saw through his identity, he would be in great danger.
Everything would have to be put on hold until his return.

This was why Xia Fei could not return to the Clan with great fanfare, shouting his identity as the grandson of Wistful Valley.
In order for him to return to the clan, he must find another method.
He would first get into the clan and understand the situation before doing anything else.

Radix thought about it and said, “There’s an external compound in the clan, specifically designated as a place for distant relatives to stay when they come over to visit.
You can make up an identity and go live there, but I don’t know if this external compound is still there given the dire straits that the clan is

ins

Inquiring from the teahouse servant, it turned out that the external compound was still around.
As such, Xia Fei footed his bill and headed to the west city along a long stretch of street.

Standing outside the door, this residence was actually even more glamorous than the Aurora Clan’s base.
Quite a few people also came and went, a very lively place indeed.

“Are these people all relatives of the Aurora Clan?” asked Xia Fei in his puzzlement.
There were actually several good-for-nothings among the crowd, yelling and drinking as they entered the premises, each with a flushed face, looking like they were living the good life.

Radix sighed and replied in a morose tone, “The Aurora Clan has always followed the gentleman’s way when treating others.
Actually, more than 90% of the people who stay here aren’t actually related to us; they’re only hanging around just to eat and drink on our bill.
A large part of the clan’s expenditure is

actually coming from these people.
If you call Spiritualists vampires, then these people are the bloodsuckers’ accomplices! Many of these rogues even drag their families in to stay, never leaving.”

Xia Fei found this to be hilarious.
How could this be considered the gentleman’s way? This was more like the way of a cuckold!

Not one stopped him from entering the courtyard.
The place was crowded with people.
Some were enjoying the shades of trees while drinking tea, some were enjoying wine by the lake.
There were even people who brought in prostitutes in the broad daylight! It was practically heaven for ne’er do wells!

He headed to the chamberlain’s house and casually uttered the name that the teahouse servant had inquired for him.
A kindly old chamberlain gave Xia Fei a key and said courteously, “This is the key to the number 9 house.
There are too many people, so all the good houses have been taken.
If any of them free

up in the next few days, I’ll be sure to help you make arrangements again.”

Xia Fei furrowed his brows as he took the key.
No wonder the Aurora Clan was in decline.
All he had to do was claim that he was a distant relative, and he could come to the external compound to eat and drink his fill at the clan’s expense.
It would be a heavenly miracle if such a clan did not fall into

destitution.

The old chamberlain saw Xia Fei furrowing his brows and thought that he was displeased, so he hurriedly said, “Though no.
9 house is a little old, it’s very secluded.
The other places are very noisy, and the people who stay there are…”

The chamberlain fell silent upon reaching that point, a pained expression on his face.
By the rules of the clan, everybody who came was a guest, and he could not make the decisions.
He could only watch as this compound, which the clan had reserved to receive friends and relatives, got occupied by those

louts, and he was powerless to stop it.

Xia Fei smiled.
“Old one, no need to be nervous.
I’ve always preferred solitude, so staying in no.
9 house works fine for me.”

This was when he saw a group of drunken louts walk in.
In the lead was a burly man; he began scolding the old chamberlain immediately after entering.

‘Is this how the Wists treat their guests?! My brothers and I were happily drinking when the kitchen told us that your clan had run out of wine! No wine? Dyou expect us to drink our piss?!”

“That’s right.
This is the Aurora Clan, isn’t it? Had I known this, I would’ve dissuaded my cousin from marrying into the clan.
Not to provide wine, what kind of relative is this?!”

Well, these louts were actually trying to overpower the host, demanding that they be provided wine!

Xia Fei was frowning the entire time as he watched this scene unfold.
Radix was even madder with rage, his eyes seeing red.
If Xia Fei sent out Nirvana to kill them, Radix would gladly do so at once!

The old chamberlain still had those kind eyes as he hurriedly explained, “Everyone is an important guest of the Aurora Clan.
How could we neglect you all? I’l go right away and hurry people to purchase more, so please wait patiently.”

“That’s more like it.
Yours truly wants to drink Cui Baixuan’s clear wine, so don’t you dare to try and trick me with cheap goods!”

The group of drunkards left, and the old chamberlain very awkwardly looked at Xia Fei and said, ‘We are all relatives, so if there’s a need that can be satisfied, we’ll do the best we can.”

Lighting a cigarette, Xia Fei departed without a word.
He did not walk far for him to hear the old chamberlain sighing.
“We can’t go on like this..
The expenses of the compound are already astronomical, yet these people actually still want wine from Cui Baixuan!”
