CHAPTER 315: CHAPTER 185: THE FIRST MADMAN_3

Yes!

There are elixirs worth tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands per pill!

It all depends on whether you have Spirit Stones!

Cultivation involves high expenditures and high returns!

Of course, if you practice as a Loose Cultivator, you can take one low-grade "Qi Replenishing Pill" every three days, eat some Spirit Rice when hungry, wield a middle-grade Magical Artifact, wear mortal clothing, and practice an average Qi Cultivation Technique, that would still count as stepping into the cultivation world.

But disciples of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" could never accept such conditions.

Especially the prodigies, they definitely can’t cultivate this way!

Yu Yunyi has more than one or two Spiritual Artifacts on her!

All of these were exchanged for Spirit Stones!

Now, seeing Li Yunjing spend so many Spirit Stones on treating them to a meal, Yu Yunyi felt a bit distressed.

"Not bad! Worth the spend! Let’s head back!"

Li Yunjing cheerfully said, "Shopkeeper, we take our leave!"

"Haha! Farewell, distinguished guests!"

The middle-aged scholar replied with a smile.

Now he had a much better impression of Li Yunjing, as in "East Splendor Tower," money talks!

Considering the Spirit Stones, the middle-aged scholar naturally favored such a generous patron as Li Yunjing!

Personally seeing Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi out of "East Splendor Tower," the middle-aged scholar then turned back inside.

As night fell, the sky grew dark.

The streets were void of pedestrians.

The two stood on the street, momentarily unsure where to go.

"Let’s go home!"

Li Yunjing looked at Yu Yunyi and said with a smile.

"Where to?"

Yu Yunyi furrowed her brows slightly, asking in confusion.

"Of course, to ’Rising Sun Peak!’ You know my ’Qiuwu Manor’ has strict rules, I can’t take you up the mountain, or the people from the ’Law Enforcement Hall’ will interrogate you."

Li Yunjing explained.

"To my place?"

Yu Yunyi’s heart pounded, her face turning crimson.

The thought of living with Li Yunjing made her a bit scared.

"Haha! Don’t overthink it! I’m just staying at your place for one night and won’t do anything to you! You are the woman I intend to marry through a formal ceremony! We must have a proper ritual first!"

Seeing Yu Yunyi’s shy expression, Li Yunjing couldn’t help teasing her.

"You’re so annoying!"

Yu Yunyi realized Li Yunjing was joking and pouted coquettishly.

That night at "Rising Sun Peak," Li Yunjing openly stayed at Yu Yunyi’s house, shocking the little girl Ling’Er who had just come out of seclusion.

She never thought that her young mistress would be won over by Li Yunjing.

"Hehe! Ling’Er, these are for you! Take good care of Yunyi!"

Knowing how much Yu Yunyi loved Ling’Er, Li Yunjing also pampered the little girl by giving her ten thousand Spirit Stones.

These Spirit Stones were enough for Ling’Er to remember his kindness and not speak ill of him in front of Yu Yunyi.

"Wow! So many Spirit Stones! Thank you!"

Seeing so many Spirit Stones, Ling’Er’s eyes widened, then she beamed, her eyes nearly closing in joy.

With these many Spirit Stones, the little girl now had enough resources to cultivate up to the ninth level of the Qi Cultivation Realm.

"Ling’Er, prepare a room for Yunjing!"

Yu Yunyi instructed.

"Yes, Mistress! I’ll arrange a room next to yours for the young master!"

Ling’Er replied, hopping away to make arrangements.

Yu Yunyi smiled wryly, knowing her maid had been completely bought by Li Yunjing.

Before they were formally together, Ling’Er had already changed the way she addressed him.

After Ling’Er left, Yu Yunyi looked at Li Yunjing and pouted coquettishly, "Why give Ling’Er so many Spirit Stones?"

"Haha! I’m afraid the little girl might speak ill of me behind my back!"

Li Yunjing fondly tapped Yu Yunyi’s nose, saying with a grin.

This ten thousand Spirit Stones was well spent!

Ling’Er calling him young master felt extremely gratifying to Li Yunjing!

See, this is what they call financial prowess!

Money not only makes the ghosts work, it can even make the mill grind!

"Hmph! Do you think I am so easily fooled by servants?"

Yu Yunyi said discontentedly.

"Of course not!"

Although that was what Li Yunjing thought, he wouldn’t dare say it aloud.

"Alright! Get some rest! I have some matters to handle tomorrow, then the day after tomorrow, we’ll go out on a mission together!"

Li Yunjing added.

"Alright, rest early!"

Yu Yunyi nodded.

"Good night!"

Li Yunjing gave Yu Yunyi a gentle kiss on her fair forehead before turning to leave for the room next to hers.

"Hmm..."

Watching Li Yunjing’s back, Yu Yunyi’s pretty face reddened.

The next morning, just as Li Yunjing woke up, he sensed an incoming message.

"Who is it? So early in the morning! Is there no decency?"

Li Yunjing grumbled, picking up the "Communication Talisman" to read.

"Li Yunjing, you little scoundrel, did you use the public funds I gave you?"

Upon opening the Communication Talisman, he immediately saw Xu Wuyi’s message, every word revealing the stewart’s anger!

Li Yunjing felt warmth in his heart, knowing Xu Wuyi was concerned about him after hearing about the previous night’s events.

"Steward Xu, don’t worry! I’ve taken down the Thirteen Flying Eagles and acquired tens of thousands of Spirit Stones. Money is no issue! I’d have to be mad to spend the public funds of our ’Seven Star Palace’!"

Li Yunjing quickly replied.

"Good! Be cautious not to make mistakes. If the ’Laws Association’ gets evidence against you, you’ll be in serious trouble according to the sect’s rules."

Xu Wuyi reminded again.

"Thanks for your concern, Steward Xu! I assure you, I act with integrity and won’t harm the interests of the ’Seven Star Palace’ or the ’Shenxiao Dao Sect’!"

Li Yunjing promised.
