I, Thanks To My Unlimited Investment, Am Admired By Every Races Chapter 36: Why Would the Eldest Young Master Ask That?

"Tianyuan City, the Li Family." Li Xun muttered softly to himself.

This was the family behind him.

Logically, today wasn’t a day for the family to send him resources, so why did they send soone here specifically?

Moreover, sending soone was one thing, but they sent the steward directly.

For a mont, Li Xun couldn’t figure out why, so he casually responded, "Let him in."

"Yes, Senior Brother."

The disciple outside the door acknowledged and then turned to leave.

Listening to the gradually fading footsteps, Li Xun looked down at his robe.

For the past twenty days, he hadn’t slept or rested, spending all his ti in cultivation.

His clothes had been soaked in sweat countless tis.

"The steward will take so ti to get here. I should take this opportunity to wash up," he said, heading toward the adjacent training room.

Before long, outside Li Xun’s small courtyard.

An outer disciple, dressed in gray, brought an elderly man with graying hair and a hunched back to the gate of Li Xun’s courtyard. "Sir, this is Senior Brother Li Xun’s residence," said the outer disciple.

"Thank you," the elderly man replied, humbly bowing slightly to the disciple.

"It’s my duty. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now," the disciple said softly, returning the bow.

"Safe travels, young man," the elderly man responded with a cheerful wave.

After sending the disciple off, the old man turned and took a good look at the courtyard in front of him. His aged eyes were filled with relief.

"Who would have thought, in just two years, the eldest young master has beco an inner disciple of Profound Sun Sect? This is truly a blessing for the Li family!"

Becoming an inner disciple in just two years.

This speed was impressive.

Without exaggeration, Li Xun had surpassed ninety percent of the cultivators in the world.

As long as Li Xun didn’t fall, a position as an elder in Profound Sun Sect was practically guaranteed.

"The young master, now that he’s an inner disciple, should have at least inford the family. That way, we could have sent more resources to support his cultivation," the old man muttered, stroking his beard with a shake of his head.

Just as he was lost in thought, there was a creak as the courtyard gate suddenly opened.

The old man blinked in surprise, and before he knew it, a graceful young man dressed in white, exuding elegance, stood before him.

"Chen Bo, long ti no see."

"Young Master?"

After not seeing Li Xun for two years, the old man hesitated, studying him with uncertainty.

As a steward for a prominent family, he was no ordinary person. His strength could rival that of Profound Sun Sect’s core disciples. But despite his power, he hadn’t even noticed how Li Xun appeared before him just now.

In the world of cultivation, failing to detect soone approaching was a grave danger.

It ant that if this person had harbored ill intent, he could have been gravely injured or even killed instantly.

"Have two years passed, Chen Bo? Don’t you recognize anymore?" Li Xun chuckled.

"The young master has changed so much."

Chen Bo’s face showed emotion as he raised a withered hand, gesturing in the air. "When the young master left the family, you were only about this tall."

"And now you’ve grown so much taller."

Chen Bo looked up at Li Xun, his eyes filled with comfort. He smiled and said, "And if I’m not mistaken, young master’s cultivation has already reached the late stage of the Spirit ridian Realm, correct?"

"Yes."

Li Xun nodded.

Since he hadn’t cultivated any techniques to conceal his aura, it was natural that his level was visible.

Usually, those with higher strength than his could easily perceive his cultivation level.

This had both advantages and disadvantages.

At the very least, it reduced the chances of being underestimated and mocked.

Anyone with even a bit of sense could tell, just by looking at his level, that Li Xun was an outstanding young talent.

It was best not to provoke soone like him unless necessary.

"In two years, I thought the young master might have only reached the Qi Condensation Realm. I never imagined...you’ve already beco a late-stage Spirit ridian Realm expert."

Chen Bo sighed.

"It’s just a coincidence," Li Xun said, not explaining further about his cultivation. Instead, he gestured and invited, "This isn’t the place for a conversation. Please, co in and sit."

"Very well."

Chen Bo nodded slightly.

He had co with an important matter, one that wasn’t suitable to discuss outside.

The two entered the main hall and took their seats.

Li Xun, curious, asked, "Chen Bo, what brings you to Profound Sun Sect in person? Has sothing happened in the family?"

"There’s no major issue in the family," Chen Bo glanced at Li Xun, pursing his lips as if unsure how to begin.

Had Li Xun only been at the Qi Condensation Realm, Chen Bo wouldn’t have hesitated to speak. But seeing that Li Xun was already at the late stage of the Spirit ridian Realm, he found it hard to decide where to start.

"Is it just sothing small?" Li Xun smiled warmly. "Feel free to say whatever’s on your mind, Chen Bo."

"Ahem."

Chen Bo cleared his throat and said, "To be honest, the reason I ca to Profound Sun Sect is to inform the young master that so ti ago, the Family Head arranged a marriage for you."

’Arranged marriage?’

Li Xun’s smile froze as the words "Battle Through The Heaven" popped into his mind.

He couldn’t possibly be in such a clichéd situation, could he?

Having read too many novels in his past life, whenever the topic of marriage ca up, Li Xun couldn’t help but think in this direction.

Since his cultivation was still intact, the problem obviously wasn’t with him.

Which ant the issue most likely lay with the girl he was betrothed to.

"Hmm."

After thinking for a mont, Li Xun cautiously asked, "Chen Bo, could you tell what kind of cultivation the girl I’m betrothed to has? Was she a genius in the past?"

"And... has her strength declined recently?"

"Uh, why would the young master ask that?" Chen Bo’s old face twitched slightly.

But seeing Li Xun’s current level, he understood.

In his eyes, with the young master being so strong now, it made sense that he wouldn’t want a diocre partner.

"The girl the young master is betrothed to is the top genius of Luoye City. At a young age, she has already reached the late stage of the Qi Condensation Realm. As for her strength..."

"Not only has it not declined, but I hear she’s preparing to break through to the peak of the Qi Condensation Realm."

"Oh—"

Li Xun responded with a aningful "Oh."

Hearing the first part, he had been a bit worried, but after hearing the latter part, he felt reassured.

As long as this wasn’t a typical "marriage cancellation" plot, everything would be fine.

As for the engagent, he had no objections.

After all, no one said that in a xianxia world, you could only have one partner.

More importantly, Chen Bo had just ntioned that the girl was about to break through to the peak of the Qi Condensation Realm.

If he ever had the chance to et her, maybe he could even invest in her.
