Chapter 195 Businessman

"Why is he here?" Lian Gouqie took out the apple he had just put into his mouth.

Wei Xi grabbed Lingyin back and asked him to open the door for Li Chun.

"My fellow Taoists, please be kind," Li Chun said with a smile, followed by two servants holding boxes. "I'm sorry to bother you! But our villa was concerned about your injuries, so we sent me to check on you with some tonic."

Wei Xi didn't believe his nonsense. She wanted to see why Li Chun was acting like a stranger to her.

"There are a lot of people in this room. I'm afraid there won't be enough space for your group."

"Put your things down and wait for me outside!" Li Chun followed Wei Xi's instructions and sent the two servants out.

The soundproofing note shattered, and Li Chun immediately revealed his true form. He relaxed his composure and pushed the box on the table. "You two are truly amazing. You've easily secured a spot in the top 30."

"I've been lying in bed for two days," Wei Xi said, rejecting the compliment. "I can't get out of bed yet. I really don't deserve your compliment."

"That's just a casual remark," Li Chun slapped his forehead, "I'm here to cancel the deal with Fellow Daoist Wei!"

This move was truly unexpected. Wei Xi was in turmoil, but he didn't show it on his face.

Wei Xi and the other two remained silent. Li Chun, not feeling awkward, said sternly, "I'm sure you weren't satisfied with the previous deal. Although it was consensual at the time, the original compensation is definitely inappropriate now that things have progressed to this point."

"As an apology, I will provide 10,000 high-grade spirit stones to fellow Daoists Wei and Qin respectively. In the future, any purchases made through the Richen Pavilion by the three of you will be subject to 80% of the listed price. At the same time, sales will be made through my channels. I will only charge a fixed-price intermediary fee and will not take any commission."

Li Chun took out four boxes from his Qiankun bag. They were of the general standard with a capacity of 5,000 pieces, totaling 20,000 high-quality spirit stones.

"You are not one to suffer loss. It really scares me to say such things."

Hearing this, Lian Gouqie glanced at Wei Xi and found that she didn't even move her eyes.

"Because I'm a businessman," Li Chun knocked on the spirit stone box, "I was picked up by the owner of the manor, and this is what I learned from my own experience."

"If you want to do business well, you must first know who you can offend and who is worth investing in. Otherwise, you may be flourishing today, but your entire family may be executed tomorrow."

"As for the second point, be sincere and everything will be manageable. I came here today with the intention of collaborating. You three can consider it carefully before making a decision."

Wei Xi's head ached from hearing the idioms, and then he recalled Li Chun's dramatic change in attitude, saying bluntly, "Putting aside other things, why did you let go of the deal?"

"Because I was the one who led the deal before, the cancelled business can still be brought up again." Li Chun took out three thin ice-like crystals and gestured for Lian Gou to pass them to Wei Xi. "This is my sincerity!"

When I feel sleepy, I get a pillow. Just as I discovered the possible trace of the mysterious monk, Li Chun gave me a clue right after. How could this not arouse suspicion?
Wei Xi held the three crystals and injected some spiritual power into them. He could feel the strokes inside and needed to continue injecting spiritual power to check the information inside.

Wei Xi, who was not in a hurry to inspect the goods, put away the information, picked up the teacup on the shelf, and motioned the other party to continue.

"I let you enter that trial so that you can help me get something called [Spinning Clear]," Li Chun paused, "It's considered a specialty of the Zhenhai Sect."

"The Sea-Swallowing Beast?" Wei Xi laughed in anger. "Are you planning to take over the Sea-Swallowing Beast of the Zhenhai Sect?"

Wei Xi had no idea what "Spinning Qing" was, even though she had no idea what it was. But when she heard the words "Zhenhai Sect specialty," she immediately recalled her initial doubts about "only seeing Zhenhai but not Swallowing Qing."

Even though Wei Xi was bold and unrestrained, he still felt that Li Chun's intentions were too outrageous.

Li Chun shook his head and said, "This thing is indeed related to Tun Qing, but it's not as serious as you think."

Qin Feng and Lian Gouqie smiled awkwardly: What are we thinking about? Want to eat pearl white jade soup tonight?
"I'm sure you've all seen the stone beast statue guarding the sea waves in the Zhenhai Sect. The founder of the Zhenhai Sect did indeed subdue the monster." "However, how could such a beast, which caused such trouble in the area, be willing to be a pet? It is said that it secretly devoured the yang energy circulating in the world without the knowledge of the immortal master, greatly increasing its strength. It then took advantage of the Zhenhai Sect ancestor's injury to escape."

Li Chun paused at this point and pulled out a thin seal. "This thing in my hand is called [Boundless]. It's used by Fengyu Villa to store information. The material used comes from a demon beast called Fu Ri from the same period. Its heart was used to refine the magic weapon."

"Your villa has a very unique hobby," Qin Feng couldn't help but say, "Using monsters from the disaster period to refine magical tools, I'm really worried about my own longevity."

The period of disaster that Qin Feng mentioned was a period when the flow of Yin and Yang Qi was disordered. At that time, the whole world was filled with Yin and Yang Qi, monsters appeared one after another, natural disasters continued, and starving people were everywhere.

The corresponding disasters also gave rise to opportunities. The ranks of monks grew rapidly. At the same time, more tribes, clans and towns united to form many forces. Today's Ju State is just an inconspicuous one among them.

This part of the history is too scattered and old, so Wen Daotang only gave a brief account of it. I only recalled it from memory when it was mentioned today.

Li Chun put the seal away and said with a smile, "If it were a whole, I would have died long ago. Fengyu Villa got Fu Ri's heart and cut it into several pieces. A total of six seals were made."

"Speaking of which, the Sea-Suppressing Clear Beast devoured Yang Qi to conceal its existence, while the Sun-Fouring Beast devoured Yin Qi entirely. Although our heart can be used, we need something to suppress the Yin Qi within it to prevent it from harming anyone."

Li Chun knocked on the table and said, "The seniors of Fengyu Villa have come up with a method to use [Spinning Clearness] to restrain the Yin energy."

Hearing this, Wei Xi probably understood what Li Chun wanted to do, but she held back and forced the other party to reveal more information.

Li Chun had come to sincerely seek cooperation today, sending out intelligence one piece of information after another. "The Zhenhai Sect's ancestor finally captured the renegade monster."

"The Zhenhai Sect's ancestor, the world's greatest swordsman, split the demon beast's spirit pearl in two, separating the two demon beasts. One is the fool at the door who only knows how to eat fish, and the other is in the trial field that you two will be heading to soon."

"The one imprisoned in the trial field was tortured by the Zhenhai Sect ancestor, forcing it to spit out the Yang Qi it had swallowed bit by bit. This Yang Qi condensed into [Spinning Clear] over the past five hundred years."

"Since Fengyu Villa already had this thing," Lian Gouqie extended his tentacles to explore, "why do they still want to... obtain it in this way?"

"Because he wants to use it himself," Wei Xi tore off Li Chun's evasive narrative. "Do you want the inheritance rights to Fengyu Villa?"

Wei Xi frowned and said, "But you're wrong. I don't have the ability to get involved in these things. Please go back!"

"I knew you were a smart man," Li Chun praised Wei Xi highly, clapping his hands and laughing. "I not only want Fengyu Villa, but I also want Richen Pavilion to rise. I can't do without Fellow Daoist Wei's help!"

Where is Li Chun going crazy? Qin Feng and Lian Gouye are still trying to figure out the rather jumpy reasoning.

"The head shopkeeper asked me to win over Qin Feng, but I came to visit you. There are countless geniuses in the world of immortal cultivation, and there are also many ruthless people in the world of immortal cultivation, but people who are both ruthless and smart are rare talents!"

Wei Xi was puzzled: Why was the conflict between the major sects so serious? A seemingly decent person went crazy and acted without mercy.

Wei Xi believed whatever Li Chun said in Sucheng, but the past was the past. Now she was not at a loss because of the shadow of death.

Simply put, Wei Xi has gotten used to it.

After a string of related information was released, the purpose of Li Chun's secretive establishment of the Richen Pavilion became clear.

Wei Xi couldn't help but marvel in his heart: It turns out that there are people who start by digging into their own corner.

"We won't do this," said the miraculous Wei Xi, who didn't want to offend Fengyu Villa. "It would be better if you don't use [Boundless]!"
