I, Thanks To My Unlimited Investment, Am Admired By Every Races Chapter 37: The Number One Genius of Luoye City

"This is such a small matter, it shouldn’t have bothered you, Chen Bo," Li Xun said with a smile.

"No." Chen Bo shook his head solemnly and said, "This is not a small matter, but your lifelong affair!"

"And besides, I ca here for another reason."

"Oh?" Li Xun’s smile faded, and he asked curiously, "What else is there?"

"Just now, I ntioned that the Family Head has arranged a marriage for you, but now you must go personally to Luoye City."

"Go there personally?" Li Xun raised an eyebrow.

Was the universe aligning to help him et his future wife?

Hopefully, as he speculated, his unseen fiancée would be soone that he can invest in. Otherwise, the trip would be in vain.

"Indeed," Chen Bo nodded, opening his palm to reveal a red ring. It wasn’t blood red but a festive, celebratory red.

"And this is...?" Li Xun asked.

"Betrothal gift," Chen Bo replied simply.

"So, I need to deliver the betrothal gift personally?"

Li Xun’s expression didn’t show much surprise.

When Chen Bo ntioned earlier that he had to go in person, he had already guessed.

Other than delivering the betrothal gift, he couldn’t think of any other reason to visit Luoye City to et his future wife before the wedding.

"Let’s set off then," Li Xun said as he stood up and walked outside, speaking casually.

Since he had nothing else to do at the mont, leaving early would give him the chance to see if he could encounter anyone that he can invest along the way.

He didn’t ask much—just one or two blue level investnts would suffice.

Chen Bo stood up and followed Li Xun, both heading outside the Profound Sun Sect.

With a soft sound, a stream of light flew from Li Xun’s sleeve, transforming into a large, purple-golden warship in the sky, its hull several dozen ters long, with flags billowing at the prow.

"A spiritual treasure?" Chen Bo was no novice; as soon as he saw the flying boat, his old eyes glead with astonishnt.

He glanced sideways at Li Xun.

At that mont, he realized that his understanding of the young master had beco increasingly vague.

A flying spiritual treasure—Li Xun produced it as if it were nothing.

Who knows how many other treasures the young master was hiding?

"Get on the boat. Luoye City is more than a hundred thousand miles away from Profound Sun Sect. Even if we set out now, it’ll likely be late at night when we arrive."

Li Xun spoke casually and took the lead, stepping aboard the Royal Spirit Boat.

Chen Bo hesitated slightly before following Li Xun into the cabin.

With a low hum, the Royal Spirit Boat shot forward, turning into a stream of light as it tore through the sky and disappeared into the clouds.

The ship flew rapidly through the void, its speed astonishing.

Chen Bo, seated in the cabin, felt rather uneasy.

While it was true that he had a higher cultivation level than Li Xun, this was his first ti aboard a flying spiritual treasure.

He was nervous, afraid he might damage sothing.

After all, even a small ornant inside the cabin could be worth thousands of top-grade spirit stones.

"Chen Bo, you are a senior. Relax and make yourself comfortable," Li Xun said warmly.

Chen Bo, whose original na was Li Zhengchen, was a branch mber of the Li family.

He had served Li Xun’s grandfather and later helped Li Xun’s father manage the family’s affairs.

In the Li family, even Li Xun’s father treated him with respect.

"Very well." Chen Bo forced a smile, though he couldn’t completely relax.

"By the way," Li Xun asked, leaning by the window, "you still haven’t told the na of my fiancée."

"My oversight," Chen Bo said, slapping his forehead with regret. "Your betrothed is nad Qin Xueyi, from the Qin family, the most powerful family in Luoye City."

"The most powerful family, and the number one genius," Li Xun murmured with interest.

"Yes," Chen Bo nodded. "If not for Qin Xueyi’s exceptional talent, our Li family wouldn’t have sought an alliance through marriage."

Li Xun chuckled softly, not committing to a response.

To him, his marriage was likely just a matter of family interests.

What puzzled him, though, was why he was chosen for this marriage.

His younger brother was the designated heir of the Li family, not him.

As soone who had already joined Profound Sun Sect and was cultivating their techniques, he was unlikely to ever beco the head of the Li family.

It would make more sense for his younger brother to enter into such a union.

Chen Bo seed to notice Li Xun’s confusion and explained, "Although the Qin family is still the most powerful in Luoye City, their lineage is faltering. The Qin family head’s son is unable to cultivate, and his only daughter, though talented, cannot inherit the family head position due to being a girl."

"Many know the Qin family is in decline. Whoever marries Qin Xueyi will likely inherit the family’s wealth. In fact, before the Qin family decided to ally with you, many had already proposed marriage, but they were all refused."

He didn’t ntion that even now, so people were still trying to propose to Qin Xueyi, but the Qin family Family Head had rejected them.

"I see..." Li Xun smiled faintly.

After hearing Chen Bo’s explanation, he understood why the Qin family chose him.

First, since he wouldn’t inherit the Li family headship, he wouldn’t have the ans to swallow up the Qin family.

Second, having joined the Profound Sun Sect, his future lay within the sect, making him unlikely to target the Qin family’s assets.

By marrying Qin Xueyi to him, the Qin family could align with both the Li family and Profound Sun Sect.

If Li Xun grew in influence, no one would dare to challenge the Qin family even if they declined.

It seed the Qin family Family Head had made a shrewd move.
