160: You're kidding me, I don't have any spiritual roots?

Inside an inn at Ye Family Pass!

Li Xiaotian looked at the innkeeper standing before him and said indifferently, "Is the matter I asked you to handle taken care of?"

The innkeeper quickly nodded and said, "Young Master Li, rest assured!"

"I’ve already found a suitable shop, and I even arranged it through an intermediary!"

"The Ye Family has no idea you've already found another location!"

"When we suddenly open in a few days, it will definitely catch them off guard!"

"But what if they set fire to it again this time?"

Having experienced the last incident, the innkeeper was still shaken!

Li Xiaotian, hearing this, laughed and said, "If I dare to open this time, I'm not afraid of them playing tricks again!"

Saying this, Li Xiaotian pointed to the six Family members behind him!

"See? These are my Li Family brothers!"

"After we open, with me included!"

"The seven of us will live in the shop!"

"I don't believe that Ye An would dare to set fire in broad daylight!"

The innkeeper quickly smiled and said, "That's good!"

"As long as our business can last!"

"With the wealth of your Li Family, how could the Ye Family be your opponent!"

"Sooner or later, the market of Ye Family Pass will be in your hands!"

Li Xiaotian waved his hand and said, "Alright!"

"Stop with these useless words; I don't want to hear them!"

"I'm waiting to see your performance!"

"Go!"

"Yes, yes! Alright!"

The innkeeper quickly responded and then left!

And almost at the same time, a subordinate ran in from the doorway.

"Young Master!"

"Ye An has brought people!"

Li Xiaotian, hearing this, couldn't help but reveal a cold smile and said, "Let them in!"

"Yes!"

The subordinate responded and then retreated.

Sure enough, after a short while, Ye An walked in with Xu Chuang and Qin Ruyan.

However, Li Xiaotian didn't even look at them, instead pouring himself a glass of wine.

Ye An saw that only one chair was placed in front of Li Xiaotian's table for him.

He knew this guy was putting on airs!

He didn't stand on ceremony and directly sat down!

Li Xiaotian took a sip of wine, then looked at Ye An and said, "You really dared to come!"

Ye An smiled and said, "Young Master Li dares to come to Ye Family Pass, this territory!"

"What do I have to be afraid of?"

"The Li Family truly lives up to its name as a great Family; even the wine you drink in an inn is top-grade!"

"It seems Young Master Li is in a good mood and hasn't taken the last incident to heart!"

"If it were me, I'd probably lose my appetite and sleep poorly!"

"After all, so many people were arrested; how anxious that must be!"

Li Xiaotian, hearing this, revealed a cold sneer and said!

"Ah! No choice!"

"Who told me I was born into a great Family like the Li Family?"

"My father always taught me from a young age that one must have a broad perspective!"

"Unlike Young Master Ye, an orphan. Oh, I also heard that before you became a Husband who lives with wifes family in the Ye Family, you were an old man without even a Spiritual Root, right?"

"Haha!"

"No wonder, the world I've seen is indeed beyond what Young Master Ye can imagine!"

"Therefore, our perspectives are different!"

As soon as Li Xiaotian finished speaking, the other Li Family members nearby spoke up!

"Young Master, couldn't you just say he's a bumpkin!"

"Exactly, 'perspective'! Does he even know how to write the two characters for 'perspective'?"

"Young Master, you're just taking him too seriously. He's a Husband who lives with wifes family; you're still talking about perspective with him. He probably doesn't even know what the two characters for 'perspective' mean!"

...Facing everyone's ridicule, Ye An's expression remained calm, as if they weren't talking about him at all!

It was Xu Chuang next to him who couldn't help but speak up.

"Li Xiaotian, you're doing a Medicinal Pill business, and you're already talking about 'perspective'!"

"My Xu Family's business is no smaller than your Li Family's. You're still putting on airs with me; do you deserve to?"

Li Xiaotian, hearing this, wasn't angry at all; instead, he laughed and said, "Do you know why your Xu Family has never been able to gain a firm footing in White Province City?"

"Why?"

Xu Chuang frowned and asked.

Li Xiaotian sneered and said, "It's because your Xu Family is nothing!"

"Running a few women's shops and doing some flesh trade, do you really think your Xu Family is something respectable?"

"In other people's eyes, you're just a parvenu at best!"

"And you're talking about 'perspective' with me?"

"Do you deserve to?"

"You!"

Xu Chuang was furious upon hearing this and was about to curse!

But Ye An was quick-witted and immediately stopped him, looking at Li Xiaotian and saying!

"Young Master Xu's perspective is indeed not as grand as your Li Family's!"

"And I was indeed a useless old man that no one wanted before!"

"But so what?"

"If Young Master Li has such a grand perspective, then don't come to me for transactions!"

"But aren't you still sitting here now?"

Xu Chuang also smiled upon hearing this and said, "Exactly, if you're so capable, don't come!"

"Don't you still have to come to us?"

Li Xiaotian's face twitched upon hearing this, and he stubbornly retorted, "What do you understand!"

"We are here to rescue people!"

"This is the perspective of our Li Family!"

"Even if they are captured, we are willing to pay to redeem them!"

"If it were you, would you have such a grand perspective?"

After Li Xiaotian finished speaking, perhaps fearing further rebuttal from Ye An, he immediately slapped the table and said, "Enough with the nonsense; have you brought the people!"

Ye An was too lazy to waste words with him, debating about 'perspective', and instead retorted, "Have you brought the money?"

"Nonsense, since I've come, I've naturally brought the money!"

Li Xiaotian said coldly.

Ye An, however, smiled and said, "If you've brought it, then take it out!"

"Young Master Li, you're not still expecting me to release the people first, are you?"

"You've been studying 'perspective' so much you've become stupid, haven't you!"

"You!"

If it weren't for his father's strict orders, Li Xiaotian really wouldn't want to give it!

But at this moment, he had no choice. He waved his hand and took out a storage ring, placing it on the table!

Ye An didn't waste words either. He picked up the storage ring and examined it!

Sure enough, it was filled with Spirit Stones and spiritual liquid!

It just goes to show how wealthy the Li Family is!

Although they couldn't compare to the Xu Family in terms of financial resources, their years of accumulation were not for nothing!

Redeeming these dozen or so people cost a considerable amount of Spirit Stones and spiritual liquid!

But the Li Family actually produced it!

"Where are the people!"

Li Xiaotian said angrily!

Ye An smiled and didn't waste words, nodding to Qin Ruyan next to him.

The latter understood and then waved her hand.

Sure enough, more than ten figures appeared beside them!

As soon as those people came out, they saw Li Xiaotian, and one by one, they immediately knelt on the ground!

"Young Master Li, you must uphold justice for us!"

"Yes, Young Master Li, the Li Family must uphold justice for us!"

"Our Spiritual Roots were all taken by this Ye An!"

"What did you say?"

Listening to these people's cries, not to mention Li Xiaotian, even the other Li Family members next to him changed their expressions.

They had paid a high price to redeem them!

Now you're telling me their Spiritual Roots are gone?

Ye An, at this moment, had already stood up, seemingly ready to leave!

Li Xiaotian, seeing this, immediately said angrily, "Ye An, stop right there!"

"Where are their Spiritual Roots?"

"We agreed to redeem people; what do you mean by taking their Spiritual Roots!"

Ye An felt bewildered upon hearing this!

"Young Master Li, that's a strange question!"

"Your Li Family never said you wanted Spiritual Roots!"

"You want people, I want money, and I've given you the people!"

"Is there any problem with that?"

Saying this, Ye An looked at Xu Chuang next to him!

"Xu Chuang, is there anything wrong with that?"

Xu Chuang shook his head and said, "There's nothing wrong with that statement!"

"Ye An, you're playing me?"

Li Xiaotian immediately became furious!

Ye An smiled and said, "That's a rather unpleasant thing to say!"

"Besides, I'm not interested in men!"

"We both agreed, money for people. You yourself didn't make it clear that the people must come with their Spiritual Roots, so is that my fault?"

"Moreover, Young Master Li, your current appearance doesn't match the persona you described!"

"Aren't you a Disciple of a great Family?"

"Don't you emphasize 'perspective' the most?"

"What?"

"Now you don't want your 'perspective'?"
