Chapter 2 Successful Arrival
After all, she's his own sister. As her older brother, he should indeed prepare some things for her to use for self-defense when she goes to another world. "Alright, alright, your brother won't fall for that. Go back and wait. I'll give it to you first thing tomorrow morning." Hu Qi covered his sister's face with one hand. She would act cute when she needed something, and throw a tantrum when she didn't.
Seeing that her brother had agreed, Xiao Jiu didn't care whether he treated her well or badly. With the matter resolved, she would go to see the next victim—no, her brother—to see if there was anything she could take.
She remembered that her eldest sister was in seclusion, her second and third brothers were not in Qingqiu, and her fourth sister was a bit far away. She decided to go to her fifth brother's place, since he often went to the mortal realm and had many treasures. She could go and loot some.
"Fifth Brother—Fifth Brother—"
Before he arrived, his voice came first. Fox Wu was fiddling with his treasures. He loved these real gold and silver pieces the most. He did business in the human world and loved to earn these real gold and silver pieces. Having them at home made people feel comfortable.
He wasn't worried that Xiao Jiu would be interested in his treasures, since these things were useful in the human world. His brothers and sisters didn't really like these things. As for the treasures that Xiao Jiu liked, he wasn't very interested. If she wanted to take them, so be it.
"Wow!???" Xiao Jiu knew that her fifth brother liked gold and silver in the human world and even did business there, opening many shops, but wasn't it a bit excessive to have all these things made of gold in the room?
"Little Jiu'er, what made you decide to come see your brother today?"
Holding two gold ingots in each hand, Hu Wu pondered what else he could make to display in the house. "Fifth Brother," he said, "can I ask you something?"
Xiao Jiu quietly moved closer to Hu Wu, her eyes fixed on the gold ingot in her fifth brother's hand. Wasn't it said that gold was valuable everywhere? It shouldn't be unreasonable for her to take some gold and exchange it for money later.
Fox Wu noticed that his beloved younger sister, who usually never looked at him, was staring intently at the gold in his hand this time. Goodness, she came prepared this time.
"What are you doing? Stay away from your brother." Hu Wu covered the gold in his hand with his sleeve. "Really, Fifth Brother, what are you doing? I just glanced at it, you stingy guy." Xiao Jiu pouted, angry that Fifth Brother had actually put the gold away.
She didn't want much, and he had so much; giving her a few wouldn't hurt. Fox Wu saw that Xiao Jiu seemed a little angry and realized he had gone too far. But he was used to it; there were always people in the mortal realm eyeing his gold, forgetting that they were in Qingqiu.
"Little Jiu'er, Little Jiu'er, brother was wrong. Come here, brother will make you a big gold bracelet." Hu Wu directly turned the two big gold ingots in his hand into bracelets. It's good to have spiritual power. Whatever you want, you can make it instantly.
This is a solid gold bracelet, good heavens, a two-kilogram bracelet, it's quite heavy to hold. "I want two, and also a gold hairpin, a gold ring, and a gold necklace, a whole set!" Xiao Jiu still looked angry on the surface, but she was extremely happy inside.
"These bracelets are really high quality, I'm sure to make a fortune! La la la, I want a few more!" "Little Jiu'er, don't you usually dislike these things? Why are you so interested today?" Fortunately, his sister didn't want many, and Fox Wu quickly made them one in each hand. Plus, he often did business in the human world, so the styles were all simple.
"I'm going to another world tomorrow, and I'm afraid I'll end up homeless without any money. They say gold is valuable everywhere, so it's always a good idea to bring some gold." Xiao Jiu was overjoyed as she held the gold her brother had given her.
"Other people are like gold, they'll shine wherever they are. You'll still be valuable no matter where you altered it," Hu Wu rolled his eyes at her. But having heard that his sister was going to another world, he was worried that she might really be short of money, so he made her several sets of jewelry and told her to put them in her storage ring.
However, Xiao Jiu was afraid that the storage ring would become unusable in the future, so she asked Little Radish to keep it for her. She wore everything she could, since Little Radish had a space inside her belly that didn't require spiritual power to open, so it was safer to keep it inside.
Xiao Jiu left her fifth brother's cave with a set of glittering gold ornaments. On the way, she met her fourth sister, sixth sister, and eighth brother, who had already been notified that she would be leaving the next day. The three of them must have gone to find her together.
Unexpectedly, they met on the road. "Little Jiu, you look so rich and noble, hahaha." Fox Eight and Little Jiu are the youngest siblings. When they were little, while his older brothers and sisters were busy cultivating, he was the one who took Little Jiu out to play.
"Eighth brother, what gift did you prepare for me? All of this was a gift from fifth brother. It cost so many gold ingots. I can't help but feel rich!" Little Nine was extremely proud. She wanted to be the richest one. She didn't want to be poor in this other world.
"It seems like you can't use any of the things I prepared. You can save them for when you come back." Fox Eight loves to fight. He often goes out to fight people, and when he wins, he plunders their treasures. He doesn't like going to the human world. His treasures all have spiritual energy. Besides, many of Xiao Jiu's treasures were actually given to him by him. After he plundered them, he didn't have much use for himself, so he had his older brothers and sisters pick out what they could use and give the rest to his younger sister, Xiao Jiu.
"Okay, okay," Xiao Jiu obviously knew as well, otherwise she wouldn't have skipped Eighth Brother and gone straight to Seventh Brother. She knew he didn't have much to give her except for those treasures, but they were all treasures. She couldn't use them now, but she could use them later. She would accept anything that came her way.
"Little Jiu'er, this is a dress that your fourth sister made for you. Although it may not be of much use over there, it's beautiful." Fox Si loves making clothes the most. She raises a lot of silkworms, and these clothes are extremely rare and hard to find outside.
After all, what beautiful woman doesn't like pretty clothes? Xiao Jiu is no exception. Although her fourth sister usually makes her a lot of clothes, what girl would feel like she has too many clothes?
Xiao Jiu took the storage ring from her fourth sister and stuffed all the clothes inside into her little radish space. She discovered that her fourth sister had also put in a lot of spirit stones. Indeed, if her fifth brother had a lot of real gold and silver, then her fourth sister had a lot of spirit stones. After all, each of her fourth sister's clothes was unique, and each time they were sold, the highest bidder won.
She put the storage ring given to her by her fourth sister into her own storage space, but didn't take out the spirit stones or anything else, since she couldn't use them anyway.
"Here, these are some small self-defense tools that your sixth sister made for you. It's best if you don't need them." Hu Liu loves making hidden weapons. There are all kinds of hidden weapons that she can make, only those she doesn't want to make. However, Xiao Jiu thinks that the chances of using them are slim, but she still accepts them anyway, because they are all out of love from her older brothers and sisters.
Use it if you need it, and keep it if you don't for later. After all, she's the cutest and most lovable little fox.
Fox Qi prepared the things early and sent them over. Several of her older brothers and sisters in Qingqiu held a farewell ceremony for Xiao Jiu. After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, the Fox Emperor brought Xiao Jiu to the sacred land of the Fox Clan. "Xiao Jiu, take good care of yourself. Just do your best. If you can't, come back and I'll take care of you." The Fox Emperor was still a little worried about his youngest daughter.
"Don't worry, Daddy, I'll be an adult soon, a big fox, and I'll take good care of myself." Xiao Jiu knew this was her first time traveling far from home, and her family was worried about her, so she tried her best to reassure them.
Midnight had arrived, and the Fox Emperor knew he could say no more. "Take care of yourself," the Fox Emperor said, releasing the imperial seal in his hand. The seal merged with the starlight in the sky, and the two beams of light shone on Xiao Jiu. Xiao Jiu's figure became increasingly blurry until she disappeared, and the beam of light dimmed.
The Fox Emperor withdrew his imperial seal and left the sacred land. Little Nine and Little Radish, still half-asleep, arrived at a mountaintop. "Wow! Everyone said there would be a meteor shower today, and it really is! It's so beautiful!"
The exclamations of those around her startled Xiao Jiu out of her daze. She looked around and wondered if she had arrived in another world.
