Luo Baocai and the others found it hard to believe. Although Luo Baocai had special likes, she was not stupid. She would never believe something so against common sense.

However, they soon thought that this might be possible because while they watched Xianyao for a moment, he caught several more fish in succession.

Did the fish just throw their lives away to let him catch them

Luo Baocai and others were speechless. They couldn’t figure out what was happening, so they could only say that it might be a coincidence; perhaps there really was a school of fish passing by.

Never mind then. With this many fish, they could have a feast with all kinds of dishes made from them. They told the servants to start working on preparing the food. Although these were ordinary fish, they were fresh and would still make delicious meals when cooked.

The servants were also stunned when they saw the pile of fish behind Xianyao but quickly set about doing their job. They moved all those fish forward for everyone else to start making dishes out of them.

"Oh, if there are too many fish and you don’t like eating them, give them away to the villagers instead; don’t waste them." Before these servants left, Xianyao said this. These were his hard-earned fish, so he wanted to share them with others. It didn’t matter who they were; wasting things was a sin.

However, in the end, those fish weren’t given away to the villagers. This wasn’t because they wasted them but because the organizer of this event saw all these fish and understood that Luo Baocai wanted to have a feast with dishes made from them when he came up with an idea: having everyone gather together for a meal was great so that people could communicate.

If there weren’t enough fish, they would ask the villagers to exchange some chickens and ducks for local specialty products and use their expensive ingredients instead.

They rarely ate these local specialties, but occasionally eating something new would make them feel very fresh. Besides, the chefs that they brought along were not weak, so they could turn even ordinary materials into delicious dishes.

About whether or not exchanging expensive ingredients for such common specialty products was worthwhile, this wasn’t something that mattered to these people!

The one who proposed this idea was the fifth son of the Luo family. He seemed like a carefree person with all sorts of wild ideas. When he did things, he didn’t disturb the public and might even give benefits to the commoners; many wastrels were unable to do this.

Xianyao continued fishing until it was time for him to leave. At that point, Luo Baocai had already left early while waiting impatiently.

At this moment, everyone except a few couples who were in sweet meetings had arrived at the village. No one was around Xianyao and even those servants who came earlier to get fish didn’t come back anymore, so they might have enough now. There were still more than ten fish that he caught, which he put into a bag and on his horse before riding off towards the village.

When Xianyao arrived at the village, those young masters and misses were already eating. He saw his own fish being braised, steamed, made into soup...

But it seemed that there wasn’t a place for him here. Although he also saw Luo Baocai, he didn’t want to eat with her; he found an alternative route into the village and went to one household where he asked to borrow their kitchen to make a pot of fish soup. He roasted several fish and gave his remaining ones away to them.

As such, although Xianyao provided these young masters and misses with a large number of fish, no one knew how the fish came about or even who he was; they didn’t know that he had anything to do with this at all.

The people like Luo Baocai who did know also didn’t say it out loud as no one asked them to speak up.

Moreover, among Luo Baocai’s sisters, there was someone who saw Xianyao ride a horse towards here but she didn’t make a sound; perhaps she didn’t want him to approach her

In the future, she would regret not having welcomed him at that time so they could get closer...

Now she didn’t know this and only thought about it later. After finishing dinner and walking around with her sisters, she found Xianyao playing a game of kicking a ball with some commoner girl; they were smiling while playing football. At this point, they seemed to have an idea.

In Xianyao’s heart, these girls were less interesting than that small girl. Compared to the earlier situation, he felt more at ease and happier when playing games with commoners.

"Hmph, you can only play around with those commoners! At least you know your place!"

Xianyao’s actions didn’t make them feel anything special. They just thought that his approach was correct as he shouldn’t have been among people like them.

"Le Xiaoyao, pass me the ball, pass it to me!"

Luo Baocai ran over and stood by the side in an excited manner; she found it interesting when Xianyao kicked a ball back and forth with that small girl.

"Catch!" Xianyao didn’t say anything and passed the leather ball to Luo Baocai, who then passed it to that small girl after receiving it.

Although this was just simple passing around of a ball, the small girl seemed very happy, laughing all the time. To Xianyao, playing around like this was also good and better than going for an arranged meeting with some highborn miss.

"Le Xiaoyao, where did you go Why didn’t you eat with me" Luo Baocai asked after catching the ball and passing it away.

"I saw that all of your seats were taken up so I went to Xiao Ya’s home for some fish soup," Xianyao replied. Xiao Ya was that small girl, a very common name among commoners.

"Do you know Xiao Ya"

"I don't know them, but they were very kind when I borrowed something from them," Xianyun replied.

"Yeah yeah, Brother should come more often in the future. Little Ya likes drinking the soup that Brother makes," Xiaoya interjected at this moment, "And also the fish he grills!"

Lu Baocai wasn't bothered by what Xiaoya said; she thought Xiaoya was easily satisfied and might say ordinary things tasted great. It didn't mean Xianyun's cooking skills were good. She continued on to other topics.

"So it is like this! You seem very knowledgeable about such a lifestyle, may I ask what you do at the Lu family Why haven't I seen you around before"

"I practice cultivation in the Lu family!" Xianyun replied nonchalantly.

"Cultivation From your appearance, it seems like your strength isn't very high. Only late King Realm, right" Lu Baocai looked at Xianyun and easily discerned his strength since her own strength was already in the mid Emperor Realm; she was also a small genius.

"Hmm!" Xianyun remained unconcerned and didn't elaborate further.

Xianyun's attitude made Lu Baocai's sister think that he really had no future. Mainly focused on cultivation, yet only late King Realm strength. Such martial arts rank was easily surpassed by any random servant.

"Then why do you still practice cultivation Do you feel like cultivation lets you slack off I haven't seen you in the Cultivation Hall."

Lu Baocai asked; she didn’t think her question would make others uncomfortable.

Xianyun smiled and replied, "Yes, I believe choosing to cultivate is the laziest path. Anyway, I can practice cultivation anytime."

At this moment, Xianyun was stamped with another label of not striving for progress!

"If you keep acting like that, be careful my father catches you; he's very strict with his family members," Lu Baocai said with a smile. Of course, it was just a joke and she didn’t really think her father would care about Xianyun.

"I don't think Lord Family Head will have any problems! I meet him every day for the past few days; he's not strict but very kind and easy to talk to," Xianyun replied, merely expressing his opinion of Luo Yunqing.

"Haha, you're lying, my father wouldn’t see you everyday. And he’s rather difficult to get along with, any problems from us siblings are severely scolded by him."

Lu Baocai didn't believe Xianyun could meet Luo Yunqing every day; even if he was the Third Young Master's son, she couldn't see where he had value that would make Luo Yunqing want to meet with him.

"He must be lying!" Lu Baocai and her sisters firmly believed that Xianyun was boasting and trying to attract their attention as these heavenly beauties, hoping they'd look at him favorably.

Hmph. Really laughable, do you think we're three-year-olds!!

Xianyun smiled but didn't continue on this topic; that was fine because he wouldn’t be looked at by these young ladies no matter what. As for reputation issues, who cares about such things

"Someone is playing soccer over there; how about we have a cuju match"

Xianyun's actions seemed to have been noticed, and the ball they were kicking reminded them of cuju—a very popular game often played during outings. Even if Xianyun wasn’t around, they might still play.

"Yeah yeah, a cuju match! I'm the number one cuju expert in Flowing Stone Country!!"

"Cut it out; with your stinky skills, even first thousand and one isn't for you."

"F*ck, what are you implying Do you want to challenge me one-on-one!"

"Challenge away! Who's afraid of who!!"

Official cuju required a certain number of people, but if it was just for fun, two people shooting at the goal could be enough. As this was just a game, rules could change anytime.

"Cuju, I want to play too!" Lu Baocai excitedly shouted and looked at Xianyun: "Leyao, are you coming"

"I won't go; it would unbalance the teams," Xianyun waved his hand and said.

"You still have some self-awareness to know your ball skills aren’t good and might hinder your teammates," Lu Baocai and her companions nodded, believing that was why he spoke like this.

"What poor ball skills I’m very strong. Whichever team I join will surely win—this is what I mean by unbalanced teams!" Xianyun said unhappily.

Lu Baocai shook her head as she looked at him: "…, he’s boasting again…"

The missies all raised their chins and sniffed disdainfully.

“… What do you mean Don't believe me Whatever, this is your ignorance. I forgive you. If I join the match, let's see what godlike ball skills are!"

Xianyun decided to join in on the cuju game; he was not averse to participating.

However, when Xianyun wanted to join, they didn’t want him! (To be continued...)tems! Kid, you’re really brave, quick, what’s your real purpose!" The girl looked at Xiaoyao coldly as she asked.At this point, she had already made up her mind. She believed that Xiaoyao didn’t come...
