275: So rich, yet he's greedy for demolition compensation?

Seven Nights Snow.

"Greetings, Landlord!"

June and the others bowed to Xie Weilou, dressed in different colored dresses, like warbling orioles and swallows, very beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

Xie Weilou looked at the women: "Has anything happened at Seven Nights Snow recently?"

June respectfully said: "Reporting to Landlord, nothing has happened recently. Seven Nights Snow is developing normally as always."

Xie Weilou mused: "Tomorrow is the Northern You Alliance. I need to go to the Northern Nether. During this time, you all must look after the Zhenxi Marquis Manor for me. If you encounter anything you can't resolve, send a message to the elders above. They should not refuse to help."

The Seven Nights Snow given to him by Third Uncle was naturally not that simple. Besides June and the others, there was also a group of unfathomable elders above them, but those elders generally would not show themselves easily.

June softly said: " Landlord, don't worry, we will handle this matter well."

"Mm!"

Xie Weilou nodded lightly and casually found a seat to sit down.

June and the others bowed and went to attend to their own matters, while Qiyue picked up a wine pot and poured a cup of wine for Xie Weilou.

Xie Weilou raised his wine cup and savored the fine wine alone.

"......"

Qiyue secretly glanced at Xie Weilou, a ripple appearing in her eyes. Landlord was truly too mysterious. On one hand, he was a profligate son, and on the other, an unfathomable expert, hiding himself extremely deeply.

After a while.

Xie Weilou put down his wine cup and left Seven Nights Snow.

Winter.

Had passed.

But the heavy snow showed no sign of melting, still falling.

Frozen three feet deep, the world was a pristine white. The cold wind blew, exceptionally biting, and all things had withered. Even the plum blossoms that resisted the severe cold met their fate of withering and perishing.

On the street.

As always, people coming and going wore thick cotton padded jackets. Even if the weather was cold, those living to survive still wouldn't miss opportunities to make a living. There were many vendors on both sides of the street.

Swish swish!

Xie Weilou walked on the snow, his footsteps making crisp sounds of treading on snow.

"Hmm?"

Just then, Xie Weilou noticed a gaze staring at him. He followed that gaze and happened to see a middle-aged man dressed in coarse gray cloth, with a refined appearance.

This middle-aged man was none other than the Grandmaster of the Holy Academy, Meng Xiuyuan!

Meng Xiuyuan was sitting in a restaurant with two children beside him, a boy and a girl, appearing to be eleven or twelve years old.

The boy wore coarse cloth clothes, his face resolute, with signs of frostbite.

The girl wore a delicate carp dress, with a pair of watery big eyes, like a porcelain doll, very cute and beautiful.

Seeing Xie Weilou look over, Meng Xiuyuan nodded lightly, then took out a gold ingot from his sleeve.

Xie Weilou saw the gold ingot Meng Xiuyuan took out and sighed lightly: "So rich? Did he embezzle the small town's three-thousand-year demolition fund all by himself?"

After speaking, he yawned and left.

"......"

Meng Xiuyuan happened to hear Xie Weilou's voice, and his expression was somewhat puzzled.

"Sir, what's wrong?"

The little girl looked at Meng Xiuyuan in confusion.

Meng Xiuyuan reached out and gently stroked the little girl's head, smiling warmly: "Nothing!"

These two were his disciples, one named Qingming and the other Jinli.

"Oh!"

Jinli picked up a piece of meat and happily ate it, not thinking too much.

Tianquan Division.

Second Hall.

Lin Qinghuang was holding a scroll and reading it. During this time, the affairs of the Second Hall were handled by Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, and she only needed to review them.

"Yo! Today's Lin Qinghuang is even more beautiful."

Xie Weilou entered the hall with a smile, his gaze falling on Qinghuang's beautiful legs.

Lin Qinghuang looked at Xie Weilou, a strange light appearing in her eyes: "Have you advanced further?"

Xie Weilou smiled faintly: "How could it be that easy!"

Lin Qinghuang said calmly: "The road is still long, no rush!"

Xie Weilou was only nineteen years old, yet he had already entered the Dao Repository Realm Peak. It was estimated that it wouldn't be long before he could enter the Profound Manifestation Realm. Such a speed was already extremely fast.

Xie Weilou said with a smile: "Zhang Long, Zhao Hu."

Zhang Long and Zhao Hu then entered the hall and bowed to Xie Weilou: "What are The Crown Prince's orders?"

Now that Xie Weilou had embarked on the path of cultivation and had entered the Shackles Realm in such a short time, they sincerely congratulated him.

Everyone said that The Crown Prince was a profligate and extremely cruel, but in the Tianquan Division, The Crown Prince was not bad to them.

Xie Weilou smiled and waved his hand casually, and a fish basket appeared: "There are three Starry Fish inside. Go and grill them. Old rules, you two share one, and Qinghuang and I each get one."

Upon hearing "Starry Fish", Zhang Long and Zhao Hu's faces lit up with joy, and they quickly took the fish basket: " The Crown Prince, don't worry, we'll go grill them right away."

After speaking, they quickly left.

Xie Weilou stretched, casually sat down beside Lin Qinghuang, and gently brushed against Lin Qinghuang's shoulder: "Lin Qinghuang, my back hurts, can you give me a massage?"

Lin Qinghuang said faintly: "You just left the Holy Academy and went to Seven Nights Snow to listen to music. How could your back not hurt?"

"Massage?"

Xie Weilou looked at Lin Qinghuang with a beaming smile.

"Are you sure?"

Lin Qinghuang stared at Xie Weilou with a half-smile.

"Come on!"

Xie Weilou's smile was gentle.

Lin Qinghuang reached out and squeezed Xie Weilou's waist hard.

"Hiss......"

Xie Weilou's body trembled, and he gasped.

He glared fiercely at Lin Qinghuang: "Lin Qinghuang, do you want to squeeze me to death?"

"Hmph! If you're weak yourself, who's to blame?"

Qinghuang snorted coldly, but a rich smile appeared on her face.

"I'm a bit tired, I'll lie down for a bit."

Xie Weilou's face was full of speechless expression. He leaned against Lin Qinghuang's shoulder and slowly closed his eyes.

"......"

Lin Qinghuang froze for a second, but she didn't push Xie Weilou away, letting him lean against her shoulder.

Two incense sticks later.

A gentle breeze swept in, Lin Qinghuang's hair brushed against Xie Weilou's face, and a faint fragrance permeated the air.

"......"

Xie Weilou opened his eyes.

Zhang Long and Zhao Hu came in with the grilled fish: " The Crown Prince, the fish is ready."

Xie Weilou took two of them, giving one to Lin Qinghuang.

Lin Qinghuang was also not polite, taking the Starry Fish and immediately tasting it.

Zhang Long and Zhao Hu looked at the remaining fish, their expressions excited. They immediately divided the fish, each taking half, and quickly ate it, even chewing the bones directly.

Boom!

As the fish meat entered their bodies, powerful Starry power permeated, and their auras instantly strengthened.

"......"

Zhang Long and Zhao Hu immediately closed their eyes, sensing carefully.

Xie Weilou slowly ate the fish meat, starlight permeating his body, and a certain Dao principle emerged. This was the power of the stars, extremely extraordinary. If one were to carefully comprehend it, they would definitely be able to comprehend some special things.

"Too lazy to comprehend."

Xie Weilou thought to himself. Just tasting the flavor was enough. He had no interest in comprehending any Starry power.

Not long after.

One fish was eaten.

Lin Qinghuang closed her eyes, comprehending carefully.

Baili Changqing happened to enter the hall. Noticing the unusual state of Lin Qinghuang and the other two, he did not disturb them, but instead waved to Xie Weilou, signaling him to follow.

Xie Weilou got up and walked out of the hall......
