Chapter 33

ch 33.1 – Upgraded Again


POOF!

The charging fiery lion disappeared instantly right in front of them along with little Yuteng, leaving the father and daughter catching their breath. That was a heart-stopping close call!

After panting for a while, Cheng Xiao Xiao was finally calming down. She finally realized how terrifying a mythical beast could be! A normal person could only be food in front of a mythical beast!



“Xiao Xiao, lucky we had the help of the fairy; otherwise, I’m not sure we could have survive that!”


Cheng Biyuan didn’t seem to be too shaken by the event, but seeing how his daughter had turned pale, he couldn’t help but to say, “Xiao Xiao, you haven’t been cultivating. You are too cowardy.”


“Dad, this was the first time I have seen a lion. It’s too scary!” Cheng Xiao Xiao wiped away sweats on her forehead and smiled in embarrassment.


Cheng Biyuan shook his head and smiled, “You will see a lot more in the future and get used to them. Let’s go. We should head home; otherwise we will still be in the mountain when it gets dark!”


“Yes, we should hurry so we can be home before it gets dark.”


“Tired after a day’s walk. Let’s rest tomorrow and come back the day after!”


“Dad, no need to rush. We can take a few days’ break before we return!”


“Okay, we will go with what you say. Just let me know when you want to come again!”


“Okay, dad!”


The two chatted on their way home. They arrived just when it was starting to get dark. Mrs. Cheng and the three young ones were already waiting for them.


The family had a happy meal together. After dinner, Cheng Xiao Xiao did not stay in the yard to chat with her family, instead, she went inside the house and entered the dimension.


“Yuteng!”


Right when she entered the dimension, she could felt that something had changed. She started looking around.


Little Yuteng appeared in a flash. With a happy smile on her face, she said, “Young master!”


“Yuteng, how many level did we go up?” Since she had delegated the job of managing the dimension to Yuteng, she wasn’t as in touch with the status of the dimension as she used to.


“Young master, we are at level 22 now. And we have 50 mu fields. You can grow whatever you’d like.”


“What? Only level 20?” Cheng Xiao Xiao frowned. They had collected quite a bit today – precious herbs and a level 3 fiery lion. All those just to go up 8 levels and only an increase of 10 more fields?


Yuteng read her confusion and explained, “Young master, 8 levels is pretty good. The higher level the dimension is, the harder it is to level it up. From this point forward, we’d need even more precious items. It might look like we have collected a lot today, but they are too low level for the dimension, not enough for it to level up.”


“Ugh…” Cheng Xiao Xiao was speechless. She wasn’t sure what to say. Back when she was playing the game, it was quite easy to level up. But it sure was hard to try to level up this dimension!


“Young master, don’t be discouraged. It will level up eventually.”


“Okay, I understand!” Cheng Xiao Xiao pinched her lips and looked around, “Okay, now that we have gone up 8 levels, what else was added?”


“Young master, look…”


Cheng Xiao Xiao looked at the direct that Yuteng pointed at and noticed that there’s a shiny tree not to far from the well. The entire tree looks translucent but she couldn’t tell what kind of trees it was.


“Yuteng, what kind of tree is it? It’s so pretty.” Cheng Xiao Xiao asked as she walked toward the tree.


“Young master, this is crystal tree. It produces crystal fruits. They are very delicious and, for those who cultivates, they can enhance your cultivation and even the effect of transformation.”

Ash she approached the crystal tree, she detected a very pleasant smell. Chen Xiao Xiao immediately feel refreshed and the weariness seemed to have all disappeared.

And that was just the effect from the fragrance. Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but have a lot of hope from this crystal tree. If she consumed it’s fruits, wouldn’t she become a skilled martial artist in no time?



Thinking about this brought a big smile onto her face. She knew full well that her father desired to become strong and powerful, and the discontent look in his eyes.


“Young master, we now have 80,000 dan1 rice in our warehouse, you want to keep growing rice?”


Yuteng’s voice interrupted her deep thought. Cheng Xiao Xiao looked at her, surprised by her words, “We have 80,000 dan rice already?”


It has only been two months since they started growing rice. She couldn’t believe they have already amassed 80,000 dan. That’s enough to feel her entire family for tens of years.”


“Yes, young master. Keep in mind that we have 40 fields and we have been planting rice in 35 of them. Forget about the rice, even the various types of vegetables we have amassed a lot of them.”


They have already accumulated so much unwittingly, if they could sell them, they will never have to worry about food or clothing again.


The problem was their food were precious items and they couldn’t just sell them as normal goods.


Cheng Xiao Xiao thought long and hard about future arrangement while leaning up against the crystal tree. Yuteng didn’t rush her; she just sat on a branch and shook her legs back and forth, relaxed.


“Yuteng, the herbs that we’ve collected. We can grow them, right?” Cheng Xiao Xiao gave her a sideway glance.


Yuteng nodded, “Sure. Just let Yuteng know what young master desires. I will start growing herbs as soon as we harvest this last batch of rice!”


“Okay, we have 50 fields. Let’s use 30 of them to keep growing rice. Use 15 of them for herbs, and the remaining 5 to keep growing vegetables. Let’s do that.” Cheng Xiao Xiao told Yuteng her plan.


“No problem. What about the ranch? Keep growing chickens, ducks, and rabbits?”


“Yes, let’s leave that unchanged!” Cheng Xiao Xiao nodded and suddenly her eyes brightened and she asked again, “Yuteng, you know the fiery lion, silver jade snake, and cyan wolves that we have collected? Can we raise those as well?”


She recalled that she was playing QQ Farm, any animals that appeared in the dimension could be raised. And the female ones seemed to reproduce at regular intervals.


“Sure, young master wants to raise them?” Yuteng was a bit surprised.


“Yes, let’s keep one or two batches. After they were raised, we can have an army of them to fight for us, wouldn’t that be fun?”


“But young master, we don’t need to raise them. After the dimension leveled up, we can clone the high end animals!”


“That’s fine. We maybe able to clone them in the future. But let’s raise some now anyway!”


“Okay!”


After arranging the affairs of the dimension, Cheng Xiao Xiao left the dimension. She was exhausted from the walking around the mountain all day, so she fell asleep while holding her little sister in her arms.


The next day right after breakfast she could hear dogs barking outside, she knew the have visitors again.


The little ones heard the barking and all ran outside one by one. Mrs. Cheng mumbled as she walked outside, “How come we have visitors today? Are the villagers going hunting in the mountain?”
