Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 185 The First Madman
"Kid! You're Li Yunjing?"

Just as the atmosphere was getting lively, a young man dressed in black entered the "Moonlight Hall".

The man, tall and slender, swayed as he entered, carrying a wine jug in one hand and a cup of wine in the other. He shouted loudly, his voice booming like muffled thunder.

For a moment, the entire "Moonlight Hall" fell silent, and everyone unconsciously turned their gaze to this person.

Li Yunjing frowned and looked at the newcomer.

The young man had sharp eyes, a straight nose, and thin lips. When he looked at people, he raised his chin slightly, curled the corners of his mouth, and looked disdainful, as if he were very arrogant.

On the man's left cheek, there was a shocking, one-inch-long scar.

Upon seeing this person arrive, some outer and inner disciples who were on good terms with Li Yunjing, who were about to get angry, swallowed the words that were on the tip of their tongues.

This is a true disciple at the Foundation Establishment stage!
Let alone the outer and inner disciples, even the twenty-odd true disciples felt a chill run down their spines when they saw this person.

Han, the senior student sitting at the same table as Li Yunjing, even subconsciously lowered his head, not daring to look at the person who came in.

"Li Yunjing, be careful, this is Long Feiyang, one of the Ten True Disciples!"

Another true disciple secretly transmitted a message to Li Yunjing, making him feel a chill in his heart!
Then someone else transmitted a message: "Of the Ten True Disciples, he's the most difficult to talk to. He's the number one madman! Don't even mention you, some of the Ten True Disciples have been openly mocked by him!"

"This guy has offended far too many people! You'll have to bear with it if you suffer any injustice later!"

"Or you're finished!"

"In terms of combat strength, this person is likely to be among the top three masters of the true disciples!"

"This person is simply unwilling to build up his own faction and is used to working alone. He can be called the number one lone wolf in the Divine Firmament Dao Sect!"

"Anyway, let alone us, even some Golden Core elders would feel their skin crawl when they saw him!"

……

Listening to the voice transmissions from the Foundation Establishment Realm disciples, Li Yunjing was completely bewildered!
This kind of lone wolf, with high cultivation and no worries, is simply invincible!

Li Yunjing simply can't afford to offend someone like that!

In the blink of an eye, Li Yunjing poured himself a glass of wine, stood up, braced himself, walked out of the corner tower, and respectfully greeted Long Feiyang.

"Senior Brother Long! I am Li Yunjing!"

Li Yunjing's voice was extremely gentle as he smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Senior Brother Long would also be dining at Donghua Restaurant. If I had known, I should have paid him a visit and offered him a toast."

Upon hearing Li Yunjing's words, some outer and inner disciples who were unaware of the implications felt a chill run down their spines.

Everyone here is a smart person, and they immediately realized that this newly arrived disciple was no ordinary person!

Otherwise, given Li Yunjing's status and abilities, he wouldn't necessarily be so humble towards a true disciple.

"Kid, you dare to offer me a toast? You think you're worthy?"

Long Feiyang was a little drunk. He glanced at Li Yunjing with disdain and said coldly.

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was silent.

None of the true disciples or sect leaders dared to speak.

Even Fu Chao, who is usually extremely arrogant, chickened out!

Long Feiyang is the most detestable person in the "Shenxiao Dao Sect"!

That foul mouth of his has offended countless people!

However, this person's strength is so formidable that no one can afford to offend him!
Anyway, Fu Chao was afraid of everyone he saw. Apart from his elder brother and the Fu family patriarch, no one had the courage to go against Long Feiyang!

The same goes for everyone else!

Even Senior Brother Han, who was on equal footing with Wei Henian, the president of the "Ten Thousand Laws Association," became incredibly timid.

He kept his head down, afraid that the other person would recognize him.

"Ha ha……"

Despite being so disrespected, Li Yunjing remained unfazed and chuckled lightly.

In his past life, he worked in sales and had experienced some grievances.

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

Li Yunjing understood the principle that a true man can bend and stretch.

"Hmm! Kid, you're not bad, you've got some shrewdness, but your strength is too weak!"

Seeing that Li Yunjing's expression was normal, Long Feiyang looked him over, nodded slightly, and praised him.

"Senior brother, you flatter me!"

Li Yunjing responded softly, neither humble nor arrogant.

"What a pity! Your cultivation is a bit weak! When I was your age, I was already at the third level of the Foundation Establishment Realm!"

Long Feiyang looked around, pointed at the true disciples and sect deacons, and laughed, "These good-for-nothings are even worse! I don't know what use the sect has for taking in so many disciples!"

"A bunch of good-for-nothings! Even if they went to the battlefield, they'd just be cannon fodder who would die within days!"

Those words were so hurtful!

However, none of the twenty or so Foundation Establishment cultivators dared to stand up and express their dissatisfaction!
It's because of the sect's rules that things are different; otherwise, Long Feiyang could have killed them all by himself without any trouble!
Who could possibly mess with such an unparalleled genius?

Long Feiyang was on the front lines, and he was an arrogant and domineering figure.

The various sects of the Xuanmen, the demon lords of the Demonic Sect, the eminent monks of the Buddhist Sect, and the powerful members of the Demon Clan—who among them hasn't been beaten and slaughtered by Long Feiyang?

This person is too powerful; no one can afford to mess with him!

"hehe!"

Li Yunjing chuckled twice.

Li Yunjing now understands that Long Feiyang is a madman!
The only option is to ignore this kind of person. If you try to argue with him, you will definitely not have a good outcome!

"Kid, I came here to see what kind of geniuses the sect has produced! But it turns out that when the tiger is away, the monkey is king!"

Long Feiyang clicked his tongue twice more, seeing that Li Yunjing still didn't seem to react.

He immediately felt bored and made a few sarcastic remarks, but Li Yunjing still greeted him with a smile.

"Hmph! A sycophant!"

In the end, Long Feiyang had no choice but to leave with the wine jug.

Originally, he wanted to smash Li Yunjing's banquet to see if this brat would still dare to be so arrogant!
Killing two rogue Foundation Establishment cultivators and you're already so smug?

And what about Lü Ruoxi, the celebration banquet for Yang Wenzheng's advancement to the Foundation Establishment Realm?

Simply ridiculous!
This kind of trash doesn't deserve to celebrate?
He, Long Feiyang, roamed the world and was almost at the Golden Core realm, yet he didn't bother with these fancy tricks!
What makes the younger generation so special?
At this point, Long Feiyang, feeling bored, staggered out the door.

But he forgot one thing.

He wants to throw a banquet, but there have to be people willing to attend!

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Long Feiyang leave, and Li Yunjing even felt that his back was a little wet.

You can't be afraid!
Madmen are unreasonable!

Li Yunjing was absolutely certain that if he had dared to talk back just now, a severe beating would have been the least he could have received!
Li Yunjing even believed that Long Feiyang dared to cripple him!
"Alright! Alright! Everyone, please continue! Senior Brother Long has had a bit too much to drink; he just said things in a drunken stupor, so please don't take them seriously!"

Li Yunjing looked around and said casually.

Yes! That's right!

Someone echoed.

Soon, the musicians continued playing, and several part-time female students also began to dance gracefully.

The atmosphere inside the "Moonlight Hall" returned to normal.

No one cared about Long Feiyang's affairs; many Foundation Establishment cultivators didn't even consider him one of their own from the "Divine Firmament Dao Sect."

The two sides are like strangers.

After Li Yunjing returned to the table, Senior Brother Han dared to raise his head and say, "This madman is feared by everyone. Throughout the entire Southern Heaven Continent, the five great Xuanmen, the seven great demon sects, the two great Buddhist temples, the four great demon clans, and all kinds of forces have suffered at the hands of Long Feiyang! Almost all of us of the same generation have been beaten up by him!"

Upon hearing this, the other Foundation Establishment cultivators inside the East Building nodded in agreement.

"Senior Brother Han, you've been beaten up too?"

Lü Ruoxi was somewhat incredulous, her large eyes staring straight at Senior Brother Han.

"Hehe! I didn't know he was so tough before! When a conflict broke out, of course I had to step in! As a result, he beat me so badly that I couldn't get out of bed for six months!"

Senior Brother Han gave a wry smile and, without hiding anything, told everyone about his embarrassing situation.

The other older disciples did not mock him.

Going back 120 years, almost all of Long Feiyang's disciples of the same generation had been beaten.

Senior Brother Han looked at Fu Chao with a playful expression and said, "Back then, your eldest brother was the most arrogant, and he also got beaten the hardest!"

"What? My older brother got beaten up? No way!"

Fu Chao was the first to disbelieve this.

He was even a little excited!

In Fu Chao's heart, his older brother was like a god, how could he possibly be beaten up?

"Hehe! It's true! It's just that your older brother is too proud to tell you!"

Seeing Fu Chao's excited expression, Senior Brother Han laughed and said, "However, your eldest brother is a genius. He becomes stronger with each setback and his power grows stronger. He has fought with Long Feiyang many times. From being completely outmatched at the beginning to eventually being evenly matched, this is the one!"

At this point, even Senior Brother Han couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"Oh!"

Fu Chao then calmed down.

He knew that his older brother was not so easily defeated!

Because of Long Feiyang's sudden disruption, some Foundation Establishment cultivators in the East Building also started talking about things from a hundred years ago.

It's clear that it contains some explanation.

Li Yunjing and his fellow youngsters were bullied by Long Feiyang, yet they didn't lose any face.

That's just how it is!

These old guys, if they didn't explain, they were afraid the younger generation would look down on them. This allowed Li Yunjing and his group to overhear many secrets.

The young people listened with great interest.

The banquet lasted until midnight, and almost everyone drank quite a bit.

The guests then bid farewell and left, satisfied with their stay.

Li Yunjing, Lü Ruoxi, and Yang Wenzheng saw off the guests one by one.

Finally, only Li Yunjing, Yu Yunyi, Fu Chao, Lü Ruoxi, and Yang Wenzheng remained in the "Moonlight Hall".

Li Yunjing chatted with the group for a while, then told them to go ahead, saying that he and Yu Yunyi could stay here.

After everyone else had left, Li Yunjing took Yu Yunyi's hand and led her out of the "Moonlight Hall" to find the manager.

"Shopkeeper, how many spirit stones in total?"

Li Yunjing asked.

"A total of 81356 low-grade spirit stones! We also added some wine and dishes later!"

The middle-aged scholar handed the accounts to Li Yunjing for review, and then said, "In that case, let's accept 81000 low-grade spirit stones!"

"Um……"

Li Yunjing nodded, carefully examined the bill, and found no problems.

Only then was the fee of 81,000 low-grade spirit stones settled.

With so many people, and having consumed a lot of spirit wine, Li Yunjing's budget was significantly exceeded.

Li Yunjing didn't take it to heart. He had made a fortune and it wouldn't be a problem for him to occasionally spend money at "Donghualou".

"You spent so much?"

Yu Yunyi, who was standing to the side, asked in surprise.

Yu Yunyi couldn't produce so many spirit stones!

She spent a considerable amount of the spirit stones that Fu Chao had helped her earn last time.

Cultivators who wish to spend spirit stones have plenty of places to do so.

A genius would never boast about having too many spirit stones to spend!
Borrowing a book from the "Scripture Pavilion" once costs tens of thousands of spirit stones.

Crafting a magical artifact can cost anywhere from ten to twenty thousand spirit stones to hundreds of thousands!

Top-grade pills cost hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of spirit stones. You want something better?
Have!
Some pills cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of yuan each!

It all depends on whether you have spirit stones!
Cultivation and all other arts are high-expenditure, high-return professions!
Of course, if one were to learn the art of independent cultivation, one could consume a "Qi-replenishing pill" with the lowest efficacy for three days, eat some spiritual rice when hungry, carry a mid-grade magic weapon, wear ordinary clothes, and practice a common Qi-refining technique. This would be considered stepping into the world of cultivation.

However, the disciples of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect" could not accept this condition.

Especially for prodigies, this is not the way to cultivate!
Yu Yunyi possesses more than just one or two magical artifacts!

These were all obtained by exchanging spirit stones!

Now, seeing how much spirit stones Li Yunjing spent on treating everyone to dinner, Yu Yunyi felt a pang of heartache.

"Not bad! Worth the price! Let's go back!"

Li Yunjing said with a grin, "Shopkeeper, farewell!"

"Haha! Please take care, distinguished guests!"

The middle-aged scholar responded with a smile.

He now has a much better impression of Li Yunjing; in "Donghualou," money talks!

For the sake of the spirit stones, the middle-aged scholar naturally greatly admired a generous guest like Li Yunjing!

The middle-aged scholar personally escorted Li Yunjing and Yu Yunyi to the gate of "Donghua Tower" before turning back.

It was night, and the sky was dark.

There were hardly any pedestrians on the street.

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

"Go home!"

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

"Where are you going back?"

Yu Yunyi frowned slightly and asked, somewhat bewildered.

“Of course we’re going back to Chaoyang Peak! As you know, my Qiwu Manor has strict rules, so I can’t take you up the mountain. Otherwise, you would be investigated by the people from the Law Enforcement Hall.”

Li Yunjing explained.

"Go to my place?"

Yu Yunyi's heart was pounding, and her face turned bright red.

She felt a little scared at the thought of living with Li Yunjing.

"Hehe! Don't get the wrong idea! I'm just spending one night at your place, I won't do anything to you! You're the woman I'm going to marry properly! We need to have a ceremony between us!"

Seeing Yu Yunyi's shy expression, Li Yunjing couldn't help but tease her.

"You're so annoying!"

Yu Yunyi then realized that Li Yunjing was teasing her, and couldn't help but scold him coquettishly.

On Chaoyang Peak, Li Yunjing openly moved into Yu Yunyi's house that night, which greatly surprised Ling'er, the young girl who had just come out of seclusion.

I never expected that my young lady would be won over by Li Yunjing.

"Hehe! Ling'er, these things are for you! You must take good care of Yunyi!"

Li Yunjing knew that Ling'er was deeply loved by Yu Yunyi, and out of affection for her, he gave Ling'er 10,000 spirit stones.

These spirit stones are enough for Ling'er to remember his kindness, so that she won't gossip about him in front of Yu Yunyi.

"Wow! So many spirit stones! Thank you so much!"

When Ling'er saw so many spirit stones, her eyes widened, and then she laughed, her eyes narrowing into slits, clearly overjoyed.

With so many spirit stones, this little girl now has the resources to cultivate to the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm.

"Ling'er, prepare a room for Yun Jing!"

Yu Yunyi gave the instructions.

"Yes, Miss! I'll arrange a bedroom for the young master next to yours!"

Ling'er agreed and skipped off to make the arrangements.

Yu Yunyi gave a bitter smile; her maid had been completely won over by Li Yunjing.

The two weren't officially together yet, but Ling'er had already changed her address.

After Ling'er left, Yu Yunyi looked at Li Yunjing and said coquettishly, "Why did you give Ling'er so many spirit stones?"

"Hehe! I'm afraid this little girl will talk bad about me behind my back!"

Li Yunjing affectionately pinched Yu Yunyi's nose and said with a grin.

It was definitely worth spending those 10,000 spirit stones!

Ling'er's call of "son-in-law" made Li Yunjing feel extremely happy!

Let's see!
This is what they call having the power of wealth!

Money can not only make the devil push the millstone, it can even make the millstone push the devil!

"Hmph! You think I'm so easily fooled by a servant?"

Yu Yunyi said with dissatisfaction.

"Of course not!"

That's what he was thinking, but of course Li Yunjing couldn't say it aloud.

"Alright! Let's rest! I still have some things to take care of tomorrow. We'll go out on a mission together the day after tomorrow!"

Li Yunjing continued.

"Okay! Get some rest!"

Yu Yunyi nodded.

"good night!"

Li Yunjing gently kissed Yu Yunyi's fair forehead before turning and leaving to go to the room next to Yu Yunyi.

"Um……"

Looking at Li Yunjing's retreating figure, Yu Yunyi's pretty face flushed slightly.

The next day, Li Yunjing had just woken up when he sensed that someone had sent him a message.

"Who is it? So early in the morning! Don't you have any morals?!"

Li Yunjing felt somewhat helpless, so he picked up the "communication talisman" and began to read it.

"Li Yunjing, you little rascal, you didn't spend the public funds I gave you, did you?"

After Li Yunjing opened the communication talisman, he immediately saw Xu Wuyi's message. Between the lines, this Xu steward seemed to be very angry!
Li Yunjing felt a warmth in his heart, knowing that Xu Wuyi knew about what happened last night and was concerned about him.

"Deacon Xu, don't worry! I killed the Thirteen Flying Eagles and seized hundreds of thousands of spirit stones. Money is no object! Even if I were crazy, I wouldn't dare spend the public funds of our 'Seven Star Palace'!"

Li Yunjing quickly replied to the message.

"Okay! That's good! Be careful, kid, don't make any mistakes, otherwise, if the 'Ten Thousand Laws Society' gets hold of something on you and uses the sect's rules to deal with you, you won't be able to get away with it."

Xu Wuyi gave another word of advice.

"Thank you for your concern, Steward Xu! I am an upright and honest person, and I am not afraid of being targeted! I guarantee that I will not harm the interests of the Seven Star Palace, much less the interests of the Divine Firmament Dao Sect!"

Li Yunjing assured him.
