Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 561 - 561 567 Angry

Chapter 561: Chapter 567: Angry Chapter 561: Chapter 567: Angry Each party had its own goals and an interest in forming good relationships, and given that the Li family indeed offered many fine items, the auction was held with exceptional success!

A few Nascent Soul True Lords obtained the Precious Pills they desired, and Li Zhirui also garnered their friendship.

Although this friendship was extrely superficial, it was a start for a relationship, and it could be nurtured slowly over ti.

“After the auction, the family earned an extra few hundred thousand Spirit Stones!” Li Zhirui said to Jiang Fengwu in private, quite astonished after reviewing the data.

These Spirit Stones were not the gross revenue of the auction, but rather the stones obtained from the markup on the Spiritual Objects after deducting their market value!

“No wonder so many comrce guilds are keen to hold auctions, there’s such a huge profit in it,” Jiang Fengwu also said, surprised at the figures.

In fact, the Li family had held many auctions before, but with not many cultivators participating, the earnings were nowhere near as substantial as now.

Moreover, this ti the Li family hadn’t prepared too many items, only a few dozen auction pieces, roughly a third of an auction of similar scale.

“With this experience, we’ll prepare well next year and earn even more Spirit Stones!”

Although Spirit Stones were not as crucial to them now as before, the family’s developnt still depended greatly on Spirit Stones.

And the auction brought a trendous flow of custors to the West Mountain Marketplace. Those family mbers who set up stalls in the marketplace to sell Spiritual Objects during those days made a tidy sum of Spirit Stones.

This matter quickly spread within the family, triggering a series of chain reactions, as more family mbers paid increasing attention to various cultivation skills!

Because they saw a glittering golden path to wealth.

Fortunately, Li Xuefeng noticed sothing was amiss in ti and promptly intervened to prevent more family mbers from indulging in cultivation skills and neglecting the improvent of their own cultivation levels.

It wasn’t until after the events unfolded that Li Zhirui heard about it.

All he could say about those who abandoned their cultivation was that they were short-sighted!

They only saw the imdiate earnings of Spirit Stones but failed to see that the further ahead they went, the easier it would beco to obtain Spirit Stones.

Of course, there were so family mbers who, due to reaching the limits of their potential and unable to advance further, chose to delve into cultivation skills.

But this was also good, as this group of family mbers could provide more cultivation resources for the family.

One day.

Suddenly, a family mber knocked on the door, reporting that Han Chan True Lord from the Profound Ice Sect had arrived at Wanxian Island, wishing to complete a transaction that was agreed upon several months earlier.

“They’ve actually sent soone over now?” A trace of surprise flickered in Li Zhirui’s eyes.

Back when Han Chan expressed her confidence, he had thought it would only be a matter of days before she would visit again, yet months had passed to the point that Li Zhirui had almost forgotten about it, and she suddenly showed up.

Li Zhirui personally went to the gate to welco her, as a sign of respect.

Yet unexpectedly, as soon as Han Chan saw him, she directly asked, “Fellow Daoist, I have persuaded several senior brothers to bring the Spirit Seeds and Pill Recipes. May I ask if you still have the Five Elents Jade Peach in your possession?”

A touch of astonishnt crossed Li Zhirui’s eyes, completely unprepared for her directness, and he could only respond, “I’m sorry to disappoint you, but the Jade Peach has already been sold to soone else.”

“What?!” Han Chan exclaid, sowhat losing her composure.

“Sorry for my rudeness,” she regained her calm and asked, “May I know if you can reveal who the buyer is?”

“The other party specifically asked for confidentiality.”

In truth, the Jade Peach was still in Li Zhirui’s hands; he simply did not want to sell it to the Profound Ice Sect and had made up a convenient excuse.

Even if the other party suspected the excuse to be false, did they have any proof?

Han Chan forced a smile and hastily took her leave.

Li Zhirui watched her receding figure, his eyes unconsciously narrowed, a thoughtful expression crossing his face, as he always felt her actions had an ulterior motive.

“Humph!”

The mont she left Wanxian Island, Han Chan’s expression instantly turned cold and ugly, to think she would be fobbed off with such a flimsy excuse.

However, her sect currently had no way to deal with the Li family and could only let it go.

——

“I’m finally back!”

Li Chengshuo stood above Wanxian Island, looking down at the island which looked slightly different from her mory, muttering, “So much has changed in the family over the years.”

“Island Defense Array…” Li Chengshuo focused her gaze and her face imdiately revealed an ecstatic expression, saying, “This is a fourth-tier formation, could it be that mother has broken through to Nascent Soul!”

With this thought, Li Chengshuo could hardly wait to fly towards the main gate to confirm her guess.

Because the Great Array had been changed, her Identity Jade could not grant her direct entry into the family lands. She needed to enter through the main gate, led by a family mber, to safely pass through the formation.

After thanking the family mber who had led her in, Li Chengshuo ran towards the cave dwelling as fast as she could, only to be greeted by three tightly closed doors.

Li Zhirui was in seclusion, performing alchemy, Jiang Fengwu was upgrading his Life-bound Magic Treasure, and Li Chengsheng was on Spirit Beast Mountain, cultivating his flock of Chaoyang Crows.

It is worth ntioning that, through the unremitting efforts of Li Shilian and Li Chengsheng, the grade of the Chaoyang Crows bred by the Li family was slowly and steadily improving.

Perhaps in a few hundred years, the Li family would give birth to a brood of fourth-grade Spirit Beasts!

Simultaneously, crossbreeding between the Chaoyang Crows and the Li Fire Sparrows was underway.

Recently, the latest generation of hybrid Spirit Birds had yielded a specin that could accommodate both the Sun Spirit Fla and the Southern Bright Li Fire and was very healthy!

It was known that both the Sun Spirit Fla and the Southern Bright Li Fire were among the most powerful Spiritual Fires between heaven and earth, and although their might was greatly reduced due to the limits of the Spirit Beast’s bloodline, the quality was undeniable, and they could not coexist within the sa Spirit Beast.

But a miracle had occurred!

As a result, the bloodline of the Spirit Beast underwent a mutation, and even Li Zhirui and Jiang Fengwu could not provide an accurate judgnt.

However, both advised against Li Chengsheng contracting the hybrid Spirit Beast for it seed fine now, but bloodline diseases might erupt later on!

If severe, it could very well lead to the death of the Spirit Beast!

And for Li Chengsheng, who practiced the Wanling Sutra, once his Spirit Beast died, unless he changed his cultivation technique, he would never be able to advance his cultivation any further.

Yet Li Chengsheng, who appeared silent, mature, and steady, was exceptionally rebellious regarding this matter and secretly signed a contract with this Spirit Beast!

By the ti Li Zhirui and Jiang Fengwu found out, it was already too late, and they were so angry they wished they could give him a good thrashing.

But back to the story!

After returning to the cave dwelling, Li Chengshuo sat in the pavilion, waiting for Li Zhirui and the others.

She was lucky, for Li Zhirui managed to transform all the Spiritual Objects in his hands into Spirit Pills by the evening and ca out of the Alchemy Room.

“Shuo?” Li Zhirui, seeing his daughter whom he hadn’t seen in over a decade, spoke with a hint of uncertainty in his voice.

“Father, it’s !” Li Chengshuo bead a brilliant smile, saying, “I’m back!”
