Finally, the jade pavilion did not comment on Mo Yunshu's sigh, and there were many things that could not be said casually. The topic mentioned by Mo Yunshu was a kind of existence that could not be touched.
Mo Yunshu has a True Immortal from the Purple Mansion in her family, so she naturally can say whatever she wants to.
What about Wang Yulou? Does he rely on Zhou Fubo?
Stop it.
He followed Mo Yunshu into the Longhu Pavilion, but never expected to meet a 'familiar person' here.
"Lianpao brother? I didn't expect you to be here too."
The Longhu Pavilion houses the traveling headquarters of the Immortal Alliance, so it's not strange for Qiu Lianpu to be here.
Upon hearing Wang Yulou's greeting, Qiu Lianpu, who was walking in front, stopped and turned back to say, "I didn't expect to see you here too, Lord Wang."
"Jade pavilion? The True Immortal Jinshan has summoned me, and I really can't chat much. However, how did you come to the Longhu Pavilion?"
From his expression, Wang Yulou couldn't tell if he was boasting about his background and strength, or merely stating that he had business to attend to. But Wang Yulou counted it as the former.
"Invitation by the Longhu True Man must have some important arrangements. Master Qiu doesn't need to worry about me. I came here today just to handle my employment. This is the Daoist Yunshu from the Mo family, just like me, who also worked at Fengwen Hall."
Wang Yulou smiled and bowed slightly, along the way introducing Mo Yunshu.
The distribution of forces in the West Sea is very interesting. Jinshan, the True Man of Dragon and Tiger in the West Sea, presides at the center and represents the power directly affiliated with the Immortal Alliance. In a certain sense, Qiu Lianpu and others who walk among the Immortal Alliance can also be considered as people under Jinshan's command.
Zhou Fubo and Li Haikuo correspond to the Red Lantern Group. The patriarch dispatched three thousand disciples from the Red Lantern Group to the West Sea, and even arranged two True Immortals to guard the rear, but it's not clear what the reason is.
The South City Extension Office, various departments of the auxiliary city, Zhen Yao Pagoda, Wan Fa Source Stream Center, and the Xihai Good Spring Hall behind the West Sea Tiger all represent the power of Shen Guangxian Zun.
In addition, there are eight snakes in the Purple Mansion, these eight high cultivators are also members of the Immortal Alliance, but their roots are in the West Sea. Mo Yunshu and the deputy leader of Fengwen Hall, Mo Xunzhou, are both under the tutelage of Hanyong True Man.
By the way, there's also the special neutral force like the Gu family's tea house.
If we add the countless scattered cultivators, the situation in the West Sea will become even more complicated.
Although the three True Immortals of the Immortal Alliance seem to be all from the Immortal Alliance, they are not a party. Jinshan True Man and Haikuo True Man once had a dispute over the issue of selling official posts.
And by setting up the South City Extension Office and expanding into the South Auxiliary City, the Immortal Lord Shen Guangxian is essentially digging at the corner of the Immortal Alliance's walls, so to speak.
It can be said that the West Sea grand stage is more spectacular than Red Lantern Group.
The Red Lantern Group gives Wang Yulou the feeling of being a still, dead pond.
Although it seems to be flowing, if you look more closely, you will find that those apparent flows are all caused by the high cultivators of the Red Lantern Group squatting on the edge of a dead pool and pawing at it, causing a stir with each move.
The West Sea is different. From the prosperous auxiliary city of the West Sea, to cultivators riding spirit beasts and mounts parading in public and secretly comparing themselves, to Feng Jianxian and Mo Yunshu.
On this vast land of the West Sea, Wang Yulou felt a kind of atmosphere that he had never experienced in the seventeen years since he entered the cultivation world.
He couldn't describe what it was, but he was sure that this atmosphere was completely different from that of the Immortal Alliance.
"Do you recognize an Immortal Alliance wanderer?"
Mo Yunshu looked at Wang Yulou with an unusual gaze.
The implication was, "Oh, I see why you didn't answer, now I realize you're like them."
"Yesterday. Feng Jianxian. I... we're not friends, just acquaintances."
Wang Yulou simply explained his relationship with Qiu Lianpu, which made Mo Yunshu's fists tighten.
But she could not say anything, a kind-hearted and intelligent person knows what cannot be said, to preserve one's virtue, of course, "ming zhi" means this.
Relaxing her fists that she had unconsciously clenched, Mo Yunshu merely said.
"Feng Jianxian is well-known among scattered cultivators."
Knowing that Wang Yulou had helped Feng Jianxian escape danger, his fellow colleague at Fengwen Hall had a much better attitude towards him.
If we say that Mo Yunshu previously treated Wang Yulou as an ally because she believed that Wang Yulou, like herself, was from a high-class family.
Now, Mo Yunshu considers Wang Yulou as a true ally, which is the real becoming of her heart's true ally, rather than a self-identifying group of people with similar backgrounds.
Wang Yulou thought for a moment and asked.
"Where is Mu Chunze?"
Mo Yunshu didn't quite understand Wang Yulou's train of thought, but as a West Sea snake, she still provided an answer from that perspective.
"Senior Mu has a bigger reputation. He has left footprints in the fourteen outposts of the West Sea, and one step by one step, he went from an ordinary scattered cultivator in the West Sea to a foundation stage cultivator. Later, he also became a disciple of Master Zhou Fubo."
Now that he has returned to the West Sea, he has been directly appointed as the Seal Master of the Punishment Court. In the eyes of scattered cultivators, Feng Jianxian is like a legend, while Senior Mu belongs to an unreachable role model."
Marrying the daughter of a high cultivator's family and becoming a disciple of a senior cultivator are indeed no different.
After they jointly received the materials related to Fengwen Shishi, they added a seal for the appointment edict at the seal office of the Longhu Pavilion.
So, Wang Yulou officially became the Fengwen Shishi of Fengwen Hall in the Xihai City of the Immortal Alliance.
"Yunshu Daoist, since we will be working together in Fengwen Hall from now on, there's no better time than today. We Wang family has a good restaurant in the West Sea. How about we go there?"
Walking out of the Longhu Pavilion, Wang Yulou made a dinner invitation.
This dinner is for Wang Jiahui to see.
"Haha, let's go. But you do need to find a mount, Yulou."
The two of them walked from Fengwen Hall to the Longhu Pavilion and then walked from the Longhu Pavilion to Zhigefang in the city.
It can be said that Yunshu Daoist is indeed doing the right thing, fully considering that Wang Yulou only feels embarrassed by the modesty of not riding a small stone tortoise.
"I actually have a spiritual crane, but it's not allowed to be used in the West Sea."
It should be said, Wang Yulou is actually good at selling spiritual cranes in the Dripwater Cave. He came to the West Sea with a spiritual crane himself.
But in the West Sea, spiritual cranes are not popular. Cultivators prefer to ride spiritual beasts that walk directly on the ground. If it can also help cultivators in combat, that would be even better.
"You don't understand. The demon beasts in the deep West Sea are very formidable. Many of them appear in groups, even in the form of families and herds. If you ride a spiritual crane and fly in the deep West Sea, you might end up being caught by a great demon."
Therefore, the local cultivators in the West Sea often choose spiritual beasts like the White Armored Bear, which can serve as both mounts and assist in combat."
So there are actually more uses for spiritual beasts besides showing off face. Wang Yulou immediately understood.
After thinking for a moment, he asked.
"I don't know which store in the Xihai City sells the most extraordinary spiritual beasts?"
Since his current cultivation has reached the peak of practice, the foundation for future foundation stage will be provided by Old Zhou. He won't mind spending his spiritual stones, so why not buy a talent and potentially a spirit beast that can reach the level of great demons? This will not only serve him in the West Sea but may also be used to guard the family land on Wangshan Mountain in the future.
The West Sea is close to the demon race, so the spiritual beasts here should be much cheaper in price than in the Wunan hinterland. Therefore, acquiring one is not really a wasteful expenditure of spiritual stones.
"It's the Zhen Yao Pagoda, opened by Shen Guangxian. Although its name is Zhen Yao (meaning "Subdued Demons"), it actually sells a wide range of items."
In the past, the Zhen Yao Pagoda was located on Fengtian Street in the Xihai City, and the selection of goods was not very comprehensive. Now, it has moved to the East Auxiliary City, where it has become a place that sells just about everything.
The prices of the goods sold in the Zhen Yao Pagoda are slightly higher than the market prices, but you also know that the goods sold by Shen Guangxian, the patriarch of the Red Lantern Group, are not likely to be overpriced.
Moreover, the president of Zhen Yao Pagoda, who is a disciple of Shen Guangxian, is the West Sea Breeze Senior. With him there, nobody dares to cause trouble."
Wang Yulou nodded and pointed to a restaurant across the street, saying.
"I understand. I'll go for a stroll another day to see if the Zhigefang is also fair to buyers. But it turns out it's fair because it serves my Wang family's business."
"Donkey meat restaurant?"
Mo Yunshu was somewhat surprised, she didn't expect Wang Yulou to bring her to a donkey meat restaurant.
"Yes, we Wang family are raising donkeys for Mangxiandian, the senior elder who likes donkey intestines. We raise donkeys well in order to be accepted by him into his discipleship, haha."
Since Mangxiandian is not around, and Mo Yunshu is clearly not the type to blabber, Wang Yulou made light of himself with no concern.
"As you put it, our Mo family is actually the one responsible for planting trees for the Immortal Alliance. Let's go, I want to taste this donkey intestine that the senior elder likes today."
"Does your family cultivate wood laws for the Immortal Alliance?"
"Yes, Hansong Zhenren, our ancestor practices Water-Wood Law. As a result, many of our family members practice Water-Wood Law as well."
"That means Yunshu Daoist and Yulou might really have some karma. Our Wang family practices Wood Law, while I practice Water Law. I wonder if there will be any opportunity in the future for me to learn from Yunshu Daoist."
"Learning by argument or by force?"
".Guanyao, guanyao, Yunshu Daoist is a cultivator who emerged from West Sea, and Guanyao is too much for Yulou."
The two of them laughed and entered Zhigefang, where the waitstaff rushed forward to greet the guests.
"Are both of you first-time customers?"
The waiter took a quick glance and saw that there were two young practitioners with distinguished bearing. Both of them had reached the later stage of cultivation. He smiled and greeted them in a respectful tone.
"I've heard that the donkey intestine here is good. Bring us two plates of it, and a serving of each other dish as well."
"Is there a table on the second floor? Oh, and bring us a pot of the best spiritual tea."
Wang Yulou's words were said with the aura of a big client.
Wang's Zhigefang can eat to their heart's content, and the most they would spend is a hundred or so spiritual stones, so it's not a big deal~
"Please take a seat on the second floor, the donkey meat and spiritual tea will be served shortly."
After sitting down, Mo Yunshu said with a hint of helplessness.
"Ordering so much; how can we possibly finish all that with just the two of us?"
He pulled out the little stone tortoise from his spiritual beast bag and said sternly.
"Let it eat! Eat more and be ready to advance as soon as possible."
Mo Yunshu glanced at the small stone tortoise the size of a palm, then at Wang Yulou's face full of disapproval, and couldn't hold back her laughter.
"Ha ha ha, even if it grows up, you still can't ride it. I've been in the West Sea for so many years and have never seen anyone riding a turtle. Hahahaha!"
There are tens of thousands of cultivators in the West Sea, half of whom ride spiritual beasts.
But after all these years in the West Sea, Mo Yunshu has never seen anyone making a spectacle of themselves by riding a turtle on the streets.
"You don't know, it is the offspring of a powerful demon, and it has great potential. However, its growth requires too much time."
Now that it's been several years old, it's still at the initial stage of miscellaneous demon realm. Sometimes I think about selling it and exchanging it for one with stronger potential to cultivate."
Wang Yulou's words came from the heart, with very little pretense.
In the process of cultivation, cultivators will face quite complex decision-making. One type is the choice between future expected profits and immediate profits that can be obtained immediately.
Little stone tortoise has an excellent talent, and if luck favors him, he might also advance to the realm of great demons like Shi Zu in the future.
However, this future is very long, ranging from a hundred years to at least two hundred - and that's the speed under the ardent cultivation of Wang Yulou. If left in a wild environment to grow on its own, it might not even break through the realm of minor demons before it dies out.
This is a choice between future expected profits that may be larger, but the time until the expected profits is too long.
Therefore, selling the small stone tortoise with excellent talent but requires a lot of time and resources for cultivation, and exchanging it for a spiritual beast that can help immediately, is not a wrong choice. It's simply choosing between the future and the present.
Wang Yulou has confidence in his future, with a guaranteed half-level purple sea of consciousness. So, he can turn the future expected benefits of the small stone tortoise into immediate gains, just like when he gave away big cargo to Hongdao, and received a bunch of rewards.
Is there a loss?
Not a loss.
Focusing solely on the future, but who knows what unexpected events will happen in the sky or what misfortunes people will encounter? What if the future doesn't come, then everything will be gone?
After hearing Wang Yulou's idea, Mo Yunshu pondered for a moment as if in deep thought, and then spoke with a serious tone to remind him.
"Wang Yulou, over the years, the prices of all kinds of spiritual items, cultivation methods, elixirs, magical artifacts, spiritual beasts, estates, and so on in the West Sea have skyrocketed."
"Speaking of which, this is related to your aforementioned Mangxiang senior patriarch. In short, everything has skyrocketed in price."
If you buy a spiritual beast now and it's a realm of minor demons, when the prices drop in the future, you might end up losing a lot of money.
Our ancestor once said in the family that spiritual stones are infinite, but the output of spiritual stones from the celestial lands is limited within a certain period of time.
The reason why everything has exploded in price in Wu nan is because Hongdao has opened up many different methods, secret arts, and elixirs, which have stimulated the activity of cultivators trading. Different sizes of powers have invested their long-term stored spiritual stones in the trading activities of the cultivation world.
Once the ancestor's Golden Pill is accomplished, Hongdao will no longer continue to randomly open the Merit Hall. The current explosion in prices will quickly become a crash.
If you want to buy a spiritual beast, it's not too late to buy then."
Mo Yunshu and Zhou Yingxi are similar in that both of them are women who, once they start talking, you will pay attention to what they have to say.
However, Zhou Yingxi's voice has a natural allure effect, possibly due to her mastery of the Sound Path Dao and Law. Mo Yunshu's tone carries a unique sense of conviction.
But Wang Yulou didn't pay much attention to whether the other person's words were pleasant or not; he quickly caught the real focus.
"Hansong Zhenren said that the prices of West Sea estates will fall?"
Today, he and Master Jingyi are taking action separately. He came to handle his appointment and win the favor of Feng Jianxian, while Master Jingyi is investigating houses for Yulou.
How could Wang Yulou not be concerned when Mo Yunshu suddenly pointed out Master Hansong's words?
The Master's generous distribution of resources essentially uses long-term resources to short-term cash in, similar to Wang Yulou's intention to sell the small stone turtle to exchange for a spiritual beast for training.
By selling Hongdao's methods, secrets, and accumulated legacies, the Master extensively extracted resources from Wu nan, which is why various things in the market have exploded in price.
The houses in the West Sea are also one of them.
"It will definitely fall, do you know that the Grand Expansion Bureau of the South Sub-City is being established by the God-light patriarch? The South Sub-City will be built to be larger than both the Eastern Sub-City and the Divine City, that's how much land it will be. "
"The more something is, the less valuable it becomes. So does the life of a wandering cultivator and the houses in West Sea. Sigh."
Yunshu Daoist is someone who cares about wandering cultivators, and this may be related to her experience in cultivation.
"The South Sub-City expansion bureau for the South Sub-City is not necessarily guaranteed to be built."
"I've heard from other Daoist friends that the South Sub-City Expansion Bureau sounds like a department of an Immortal Alliance, but it's not. It's just something that Xianshan Hall in the West Sea, under the protection of Shengguang Patriarch, came up with."
The patriarch is very powerful, but West Sea is still part of the Immortal Alliance's West Sea, isn't it?"
In the end, Wang Yulou also became unsure.
On this land of West Sea, the Immortal Alliance is too far away, and Shengguang Patriarch is too close. Shengguang has expanded West Sea for two hundred years. The influence he has in this place is estimated to be no more than the highest level.
Mo Yunshu looked around and leaned forward slightly, moving closer to Yulou's direction, speaking in a low voice.
"Every time they mention the South Sub-City Expansion Bureau to other cultivators, West Sea Longhuhu says, 'This matter is personally entrusted by our Master. Even if I West Sea Longhuhu have to give my life, I must accomplish this task satisfactorily and not betray the great kindness of our Master who has nurtured me with his own life.' "
What he's saying is for whom to hear? It can't be for that immortal patriarch, can it?
Shengguang Patriarch used to build the Eastern Sub-City slowly as well.
Now the patriarch wants to build the South Sub-City again, and even if the Immortal Alliance has opinions, they may not be effective."
West Sea Longhuhu, the second elder of Ji Shan Hall, the person in charge of the South Sub-City Expansion Bureau, under the tutelage of Shengguang.
The two are very close, and Wang Yulou can smell a faint fragrance from Mo Yunshu's body. This girl is not inferior to Qin Churanrane in terms of beauty. With such a beautiful woman in front of him, Wang Yulou doesn't have any thoughts of desire. Instead, he just thinks that his own house may not need to be rushed.
The affairs in West Sea are complex, and Wang Yulou thought of bringing Wang Jingyi to see the house and the construction of West Sea South Sub-City, thinking of his Uncle Gu Xinlilang and Uncle Gu Shi.
It's unclear whether Gu Qilang knows but chooses not to say, or whether he simply doesn't say because he is unaware.
In short, this person may not be as reliable.
Master Jingyi and he haven't seen each other for decades, and the human heart is like water. Perhaps Gu Qilang's inner feelings have changed again.
"Wang Yulou, are you planning to buy a mansion in West Sea?"
Seeing Wang Yulou doesn't respond, Mo Yunshu blinked her eyes. She had already understood from Wang Yulou's question that he might be planning to buy a mansion in West Sea.
"Yes, I will marry with Yingxi Daoist, the daughter of Fujiao True Patriarch, in the near future. The wedding will be held in West Sea."
Since it's not a dowry marriage, there will have to be a place to live after the wedding. Over the past two days, I have been considering where to buy a mansion."
After hearing Wang Yulou's words, Mo Yunshu quickly retracted her body. She didn't expect Wang Yulou to actually want to marry Zhou family's daughter, and she realized that her behavior earlier seemed somewhat impulsive.
The main thing is that Yunshu Daoist belongs to a character who doesn't care about details, with a generous and atmospheric personality. In the past, when fighting with beasts in the West Sea, she didn't consider herself a little woman and always wanted to compete with male cultivators in everything.
In terms of character, she has a five-lake-and-four-sea quality. As long as they can get along, they can be close friends and speak frankly.
Wang Yulou is someone who doesn't like to delve deeply into certain topics, but he is otherwise very capable, at least equal to a hundred Yuan Wus. He is smart without the sharpness of intelligence, which is why she was able to chat with Yulou so comfortably today.
"Being able to marry the daughter of Zhou family, it's not a concubine marriage, Wang Yulou, you have good luck."
Mo Yunshu's attention is obviously not normal. She gets up, opens the door and shouts.
"Comrade, bring me some spiritual wine."
"Why do you need to drink alcohol? I just drank a round this morning, no need for it."
Wang Yulou had drunk plenty of spiritual wine this morning, accompanying Feng Jianxian and West Sea Tiger at Miyue Night, already a bit tipsy from the Liumhua Quintessence. The seventh-grade spiritual wine was too potent for him, and he didn't want to drink any more.
Anyone who wants to achieve great things knows that drinking can hinder matters, and one should give up alcohol when it's time to do so.
"Ha ha ha, I feel very comfortable today talking with you, Wang Yulou. You are different from the children of high-status families. You actually want to listen to my complaints."
You don't know, those people are quite interesting. They clearly understand the situation but don't want to listen to me. It's as if listening would make them feel uneasy.
What's that saying? "Covering one's ears while stealing a bell," it's much the same.
Mo Yunshu is a bit of a passionate person, and Wang Yulou shook his head and said.
"Yunshu Daoist, in the cultivation world, we can't have everything go smoothly. Having everything go smoothly is the exclusive domain of high-level cultivators."
It's a bit comforting, but rather superficial.
It's difficult for a cultivator to change another cultivator. Mo Yunshu is clearly not a silly girl. She has her own set of values and logical thinking.
Whether it's her views on the Immortal Alliance, on wandering cultivators, or on making friends, she has strong opinions. Wang Yulou's advice is subtle, telling her to focus on improving her cultivation first and become a high-level cultivator.
The comrade who brought the spiritual wine left politely after serving it, and seeing the comrade leave, Mo Yunshu said in a mysterious tone again.
"Yulou, you might not know that there is a gathering of wandering cultivators in the West Sea, called the Wandering Cultivator Alliance. It is established specifically for wandering cultivators, and its leader is the captain of the West Sea City Enforcement Team, Zhangheng."
The South Sub-City was established by Shengguang Patriarch.
The South Sub-City Enforcement Team is the actual law enforcement force with the greatest power and influence in the West Sea City, representing Shengguang Patriarch. It is the direct lineage of the patriarch in the West Sea City.
However, Captain Zhangheng of the South Sub-City Enforcement Team has become the leader of the so-called Wandering Cultivator Alliance.
Chewing on this information, Yulou felt a fierce surge in her heart.
The Wandering Cultivator Alliance, the Wandering Cultivator Alliance... The name is interesting, very interesting.
Dripping Water Cave is called a cave, Miaofeng Mountain is called a mountain, Red Lantern Zhi is called Zhi, Tian She Sect is also known as Tian She Valley. The exchange of dharma held by Wang Yulou was also named the Dharma Assembly.
Not to mention pavilions, palaces, courts, temples, halls, pavilions, gardens.
Why choose the name Wandering Cultivator Alliance instead of other names like pavilions, palaces, courts, temples, halls, pavilions, gardens?
Mo Yunshu is given a full glass, and Wang Yulou refills his own as well. He doesn't say much, just raises his cup and says.
"Here's to Shengguang Patriarch for opening up West Sea and protecting the peace of Wunan."
"Ding~"
Both drank their cups to the bottom.
After putting down their cups, Mo Yunshu found that Wang Yulou really had a certain charm.
He always speaks in a subtle way without revealing his true thoughts, never making even a half-word mistake. But yet, he can still chat with himself.
The meal lasted for a full hour, but when it came to actually eating, the amount of food consumed was almost negligible.
Most of the meal was spent talking about the landscapes of West Sea and Wunan, with Mo Yunshu describing West Sea and Wang Yulou describing Wunan.
During their conversation, a funny incident occurred.
Since both of them were not picking up their chopsticks much, the more than twenty dishes on the table were actually eaten mostly by the small stone turtle.
It had naturally good talents and had eaten a lot of spiritual food, breaking through to the middle level of the Mixed Beast Realm during the banquet.
Just then, Mo Yunshu noticed that after the small stone turtle broke through, its body didn't even increase in size by a hair's breadth, which was surprising to her.
"Yulou, this little turtle has truly remarkable talent. It's likely to become a profound master of arts and laws in the future."
Most of the beasts that have not yet cultivated to a higher level can be broadly classified into two types: one that relies on talent and laws for survival, and one that depends on its powerful physique.
Why is the Iron Crocodile so special?
Because they have a trace of dragon nature, which makes them both strong in body and capable of using special arts like the crocodile water whip and crocodile water escape. They belong to the category of law and body strength in dual.
For cultivators, the most valuable type of spirit beast to raise is one with powerful innate arts. These spirit beasts can play a significant role in the combat of cultivators.
After all, there are many strong-bodied spirit beasts, such as Mo Yunshu's White Armored Bear. However, spirit beasts with powerful innate arts are extremely rare.
The small stone turtle has advanced to the middle level of mixed beasts without growing in size at all, indicating that its advancement is an internal improvement, corresponding to changes in its natural talents and laws.
Such a small stone turtle truly deserves the phrase "exceptional talent," even causing Mo Yunshu to feel a bit envious.
When mentioning the small stone turtle's tail, Wang Yulou twirled it and examined it twice.
"The food and resources you've fed it haven't gone to waste. To be honest, your reminder to Yulou today has done a great deal of help. Buying a mansion is indeed not something to rush into."
Mo Yunshu blushes easily when drinking. Even though they shared the same jar, she had only drunk about seven or eight cups, but she was already very flushed.
She smiled faintly, and her reddened cheeks looked like a beautiful peony swaying in the wind.
"I have a mansion in the city, which is not very large, only about ten paces wide and sixteen paces deep."
You're about to marry into the Zhou family and take a wife back home, so why not settle there for a few years first.
"Wait until the construction of the Southern Sub-City is almost completed, and then buy a piece of land in the Southern Sub-City to build a mansion."
The true disciples of the school are indeed magnificent. Yunshu Daoist is generous, but Wang Yulou can't be that obtuse. He quickly declines the offer.
"That's not the way it works. I can just rent a courtyard, and I don't lack that kind of spirit stone."
Mo Yunshu, however, smiled cunningly and joked.
"How dare you, Wang Yulou, do you want to stay for free?"
But that's also what I meant. After all, you're going to need to rent a mansion to use for the time being. It would be better to rent it to you than to someone else.
Then, I'll rent it out at a discount of sevenfold the market price, how does that sound?
Wang Yulou realized that the girl had not been drunk.
However, what Wang Yulou was thinking was that Feng Jianxian treated him well because he had saved Feng Jianxian once before.
As for Mo Yunshu, she directly gave a discount of 70% and rented a mansion to herself just because they were chatting together.
Of course, there's also a possibility that what she said about 'Hansong True Master' from the beginning was a lie. She somehow knew Wang Yulou was buying a mansion and led him to rent her house. But this possibility is as low as Yuan Wuneng achieving Golden Dan, basically zero.
So, after thinking it over, Wang Yulou ultimately decided to politely decline.
"Yunshu Daoist, 'one should not accept gifts without giving anything in return.' It's not right for me to rent your house at a 70% discount. My heart feels guilty."
If I were to rent it at the market price, it would be too expensive. So, I'll just continue to look around myself."
Mo Yunshu's expression darkened, and she asked in return.
"Don't you treat me as a friend?"
Wang Yulou had fully grasped the situation.
To put it simply, the type of generousness that the West Sea Tiger has is a typical false generosity. It seems generous, and in the end, he even gave Wang Yulou one of his tokens, but it's all just adding a cherry on top.
As for Mo Yunshu, this girl, she is truly generous. She is a bit like Feng Jianxian, and like Feng Jianxian, she is a cultivator who does things with integrity and beliefs in her heart.
Therefore, she is not being silly, but rather adhering to her own principles.
"Eighty percent. That way, I can afford it, and you won't lose too much."
Wang Yulou directly said, he indeed needs a bigger house. If Wang Yulou looked for the 'first house of wandering cultivators in the city,' that would be too absurd.
"That's a deal!"
Both raised their cups to finish the last of the spiritual wine, and Wang Yulou called for a waiter to settle the bill.
"Gentleman, for a total of 300 spiritual stones, if you pay with superior spiritual stones, we can offer a 95% discount."
The waiter handed Wang Yulou a piece of paper with a total of 300 spiritual stones, indicating that this price was not given away for free.
"Three hundred?" Mo Yunshu was about to speak, but Wang Yulou stopped her with a look.
He knows as a member of the Wang family that this price is nothing to worry about.
Wang Jiagu's courage is far greater than Tang Nianqiu's fatness. Old Tang has been studying the ledger day and night, hoping to find a small account of three or five spiritual stones within a reasonable range.
Wang Jiagu is different, she doubled the amount of spiritual stones she collected, which is truly insane!
"Here, this is three hundred spiritual stones. Keep them safe."
After Wang Yulou paid the spiritual stones, he led Mo Yunshu to the cashier's counter on the first floor of Zhiwei Pavilion, staring at the clerk to settle the account.
The waiter was uncomfortable with his stare and asked.
"Are you not satisfied with the food? Or do you have any doubts about the price?"
Wang Yulou didn't mind this small difficulty. He smiled and answered.
"Didn't you say you would record the spiritual stones I paid? So I just want to take a look."
Seeing Wang Yulou and Mo Yunshu somewhat drunk, the waiter muttered curses in his heart, adding a hint of threat to his face.
"We Zhiwei Pavilion are under the ownership of Mighty Elephant Immortal, so if you're drunk, don't get into any trouble."
Mo Yunshu is not an idiot, so she understands what's happening. She steps forward and chooses to openly reveal her identity first, to test the strength of these people for Wang Yulou.
"I am Mo Yunshu, a disciple of Hansong True Master. Spending three hundred spiritual stones on a meal, the Treasure Tower of Demonic Confinement charging so much for great demon meat is nothing unusual."
"How come your Wang family's asses are raised on gold or silver? Why are they so expensive?"
I have connections, and I know about the background of your Zhiwei Pavilion. So, if you refund the extra spiritual stones, we can just get along fine.
The waiter listened to Mo Yunshu's words and immediately calmed down, smiling and answering in return.
"Sir, this is like a flood washing over the Dragon King's temple. Our owner is also a disciple of Hansong True Master, ha ha! Here, this is one hundred and eighty spiritual stones for you."
Mo Yunshu looked at the spiritual stones in the waiter's hand and then at Wang Yulou, who was smiling warmly beside her. Her face changed from faint red to flushed red, and she blushed instantly.
Without paying attention to those spiritual stones, Mo Yunshu glared at Wang Yulou with a stern expression.
"Didn't you already know that this wasn't fair?"
Wang Yulou shook his head with a smile and then spoke kindly to the waiter.
"Go on, call the owner. Tell him, Mo Yunshu and Wang Yulou came together and had a meal of three hundred spiritual stones. They were very satisfied and want to meet her."
The waiter was initially confused and then turned pale, kneeling down and explaining.
"I was forced into it, this has nothing to do with me. The boss said, no, Wang Jiagu that old witch said, if we don't do as she says, she'll change the staff, and there's nothing we can do."
"Go call someone, handle it according to our family rules. Whether there's a relationship or not, let's investigate and find out."
Wang Yulou calmly said, the waiter dare not delay, so he quickly contacted Wang Jiagu.
Wang Yulou activated a transmission token to summon Wang Rongchuan over.
At the same time, let Mo Yunshu directly summon people from the Spiritual City Penalty Hall.
"I don't know many people at the Spiritual City Penalty Hall. Yulou, I may not be able to summon the right people over, so I might as well find a senior member of my family to come. To do such a foolish thing under my Mo and Mighty Elephant Immortal's names is simply ridiculous!"
The family laws of a great clan and the rules of the Immortal Alliance are difficult to say which is more authoritative. Generally, when a cultivator's family uses family laws to deal with its own members, the rules of the Immortal Alliance do not interfere, which is also part of the special order in the cultivation world.
When Yuan Daoshen killed Cui Yanzong at the Bay River Port, he was also following this rule. As the first foundation of Dipwater Cave, he killed a disrespectful disciple of Dipwater Cave without the Immortal Alliance intervening.
"Don't worry, the woman I marry is the daughter of the torturer hall seal." Yulou said.
Mù Chunze is also a local tycoon in the Western Sea, and he will soon become Wang Yulou's adoptive father-in-law.
Thinking of Mù Chunze, Wang Yulou can't help but recall the first time he knew about him adding water to the water. He is not just an ordinary person.
"Mr. Chunze, is that so?"
After Mo Yunshu realized that Wang Yulou had someone in the Penalty Hall, she no longer felt apprehensive and directly stated in the transmission token that someone was using the names of Mighty Elephant Immortal and Hansong True Master to swagger around in the Spiritual City.
Hansong True Master, a local true master in the Western Sea, is a land shark, or rather a land dragon.
Mighty Elephant Immortal, the current leader of Hongdengzhao, a senior cultivator who has stirred up the clouds in the Immortal Alliance, will soon become a Golden Dan existence, and belongs to an over-the-river dragon.
This kind of behavior of misusing the name of a senior cultivator is inherently sensitive, and the complainant is Mo Yunshu, a disciple under Hansong True Master. Moreover, two of the three True Masters in the Western Sea are from Hongdengzhao. The severity of the situation can easily be classified as the highest level—the Immortal Alliance serves all cultivators, with priority given to senior cultivators.
The first to arrive at Zhiwei Pavilion were people from the Spiritual City Penalty Hall, led by a familiar face to Wang Yulou.
However, this familiar face was called Zhou Yingxi, still wearing a veil and not revealing her true appearance.
It seems like she might not have should have come.
Zhou Yingxi led people into Zhiwei Pavilion and saw Wang Yulou, she was slightly surprised.
Her beautiful peach blossom eyes met Wang Yulou's gaze for a moment, and her eyes seemed to hide a layer upon layer of unexplained meanings, like an endless kaleidoscope, which Wang Yulou couldn't understand.
However, Zhou Yingxi just looked at Wang Yulou for a moment before turning away, her gaze shifting to the girl by Wang Yulou's side, who was blushing slightly due to her poor tolerance for alcohol.
The woman is quite beautiful, and her cultivation level is not low either. Her magical robe appears to be of superior grade, and she is drunk, with her face flushed.
The gaze of the eyes with peach blossoms returned to Wang Yulou.
Hidden in three layers of cultivation, the clumsy Wang Yulou was dressed quite ornamentally (like a fresh rain in an empty mountain), and was also drunk (drinking two times in a day). His face was also red.
I will marry you the day after tomorrow. But now you have stopped, what right do I have to say anything to you?
The expression behind the veil was a bit stiff, and Zhou Yingxi's breathing became more labored.
In the end, she lightly bit her lips and despondently lowered her eyes, saying.
"I am the patrol city inspector of the Penalty Court, who sent the transmission token?"
Mo Yunshu, this girl, was generous and stepped forward half a step, standing in front of Wang Yulou's side and explaining the situation.
"Comrade, my daughter Mo Yunshu is the Wind Hearing Officer at the Wind Hearing Court. This is Wang Yulou, from Hongdengzhao, a disciple of Bind-Jiao True Master, and like me, he is also a Wind Hearing Officer."
"This Zhiwei Pavilion is clearly an industry of Wang Yulou's, but it bullies customers on the one hand under the name of Mighty Elephant Immortal, and on the other hand, it uses my family's name as a buffer."
"I saw the situation was not right, so I sent a transmission token."
Mo Yunshu explained the situation clearly, but Zhou Yingxi did not respond; she just reflected on her stance of defending Wang Yulou proactively.
What kind of relationship do they have?
Wang Yulou, seeing that Zhou Yingxi didn't speak up, understood in his heart and took the initiative to explain.
"Yingxi comrade, the owner here is named Wang Jiahui, who is a relative of mine. Her spouse is a descendant of a disciple of Hansong True Master."
"My opinion on this matter is to separate her and her spouse from the trial."
"The Western Sea is too far away, and sometimes we Wang family also find ourselves powerless. I'm not sure if this incident falls under the jurisdiction of the Penalty Court."
Now, it was Mo Yunshu's turn to be puzzled.
Yingxi comrade?
Do they know each other?
Hm?
Yeah, it seems like they know each other.
It seems like they know each other.
That's not right!
Then I must have been caught being a dirty little slut!?!
Thinking of this, before others could react, Mo Yunshu quickly moved, placing a distance of over ten paces between herself and Wang Yulou.
She looked at Zhou Yingxi, but instead of confronting her, she complained about Wang Yulou.
"Today, Wang Yulou unexpectedly said he wanted to treat me to a meal, resulting in these incidents. Alas, I feel ashamed."
Don't worry, whether or not the Penalty Court gets involved, this matter involves the reputation of my ancestor. I will definitely investigate it thoroughly and clear it up for the sake of our colleague friendship.
That's not related, it doesn't matter at all. I Mo Yunshu am not willing to be a mistress.
You see, Miss Yunshu is quite principled. She knows how to conduct herself and is definitely far above the likes of Yuan Daoshen, Wang Yulou, and others in terms of her moral standards.
"Yulou, why are you here? You didn't even say anything in advance, Aunty, I wasn't prepared."
Wang Jiahui hurriedly entered Zhiwei Pavilion from outside. Seeing that there were about seven or eight senior disciples of the Immortal Alliance wearing the punishment hall waistband inside, she immediately felt her legs weaken, and all the softening words she had prepared on the way couldn't be spoken.
In fact, it doesn't make a difference whether you say anything or not.
Wang Yulou brought Mo Yunshu over, and he didn't intend to give her any chances.
Miss Yunshu is not an ordinary person. This girl has principles.
"Take them away!"
Zhou Yingxi finally spoke up. When her order was issued, the scallywags from the Penalty Hall rushed forward and bound Wang Jiahui.
This is the direct descendant of Bind-Jiao True Master, and also the daughter of Mu Zongzhao. Her words are the words of Bind-Jiao True Master, and they are also the words of Mu Zongzhao.
So, does Zhou Yingxi's words still count as words?
No, that's the starting pistol for the 'Loyalty Grand Competition'!
"Go to her house and take her husband back to the Punishment Hall detention. Let's see what kind of great crimes they have committed while using the names of our ancestors and Hansong True Master."
The helpers of the Penalty Court left, and Zhou Yingxi turned to Wang Yulou, asking.
"Our marriage is imminent, let's talk about it properly."
