292: Conflict breaks out
"In our entire Nine Sun City, even the wealthiest City Lord probably only has a few thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"
"And if this was really set up by this person, look, isn't it set up exceptionally casually? A massive amount of Spiritual Qi has even been wasted!"
"Also, look carefully at the air; isn't there still the aura of treasures that assist in Cultivation?"
"Think about it, if someone could truly set this up so wastefully, how vast must their wealth be? One hundred thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones, or hundreds of thousands?!"
"So, in my opinion, this definitely wasn't set up by a person!"
Gu Old Head listened quietly to Lei Hui's voice, feeling speechless deep down... This old guy, pretending to be ignorant when he clearly understands!
Anyone with a discerning eye would know what's going on at a glance. He, on the other hand, talks a bunch of nonsense. Who doesn't know what he's thinking in his head?
"Gu Old Head, don't you agree?"
Gu Old Head immediately chimed in:
"Correct! The Vice City Lord has a Wisdom Eye like a torch; at a glance, you saw that this is a creation of heaven and earth, not something the person who purchased it before could have caused."
"Then what do you say we do next?"
"Refund five hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones, then reclaim this residence. After all, the final right of interpretation regarding the residence still lies with the Nine Sun City authorities."
Hearing this, a look of satisfaction appeared on Lei Hui's face, but he still frowned and asked:
"Our Nine Sun City has always been relatively fair and just. Canceling the transaction for no reason, isn't it…"
"Vice City Lord, this residence hasn't been maintained for a long time. Therefore, to provide better service to the buyer, we need to reclaim it for reprocessing before it can be sold again. Otherwise, it won't show our respect for the customer."
"Hmm… excellent, excellent. But do you know who the person who bought the residence before is? We've been inside for so long and haven't seen a single person."
"Previously, a young man paid, and he brought a group of people. It's only been a short while, and they've all disappeared. I also don't know where they went. Perhaps they went to purchase some Materials. Vice City Lord, we might as well wait. In any case, this is also a good place for Cultivation."
"That makes sense. Then let us wait here."
Suddenly, Lei Hui asked suspiciously:
"The young man, how is his Cultivation?"
"He looks very young, and I didn't feel any Cultivation fluctuations on him."
"No Cultivation fluctuations… either the Cultivation is too low, or it's too high. However, you are already an expert at the Yuan Xu Third Level. If he could make even you unable to detect a shred of Cultivation, I'm afraid only an expert at the Yang Shi Realm could do that!"
"If it really were someone at the Yang Shi Realm, they would have certainly gone to the Five Great Powers long ago. How could they possibly remain here in my small Nine Sun City?"
"Therefore, in summary, this person must be someone whose Cultivation is not high. In that case, we can forcibly reclaim ownership of the residence when the time comes!"
"Vice City Lord is wise…"
An hour passed. A blue light flashed out from the Hunyuan Pagoda, and immediately, a figure wearing a blue dress appeared near the Hunyuan Pagoda.
This person was Lan Xiaoying. She had calculated the time; she had come out now to prepare dinner.
The moment she opened the door to Lu Hao's room, she saw the Vice City Lord and the other person sitting cross-legged in mid-air.
Hmm? Who are these two people? Could they be new Disciples taken in by Big Brother Lu?
Before Lan Xiaoying could speak, Gu Old Head immediately noticed Lan Xiaoying's figure and was immediately somewhat shocked.
They had previously used their Divine Sense to scan this area thoroughly and hadn't discovered the presence of anyone else here… Who is this female cultivator?
Lei Hui had a completely different reaction from Gu Old Head.
The first moment he saw Lan Xiaoying, his pupils shook instantly, and an evil thought couldn't help but arise in his mind.
When Lan Xiaoying was in the village before, she actually already possessed some beauty.
But ever since Lu Hao let her fully embark on the Dao of Cultivation, the temperament on Lan Xiaoying's body had become increasingly ethereal.
Her three thousand strands of dark hair were draped somewhat messily over her shoulders, possessing a rather chaotic sense of beauty.
On her exquisite face, a pair of bright eyes were like a pool of clear spring water, clear to the bottom, filled with liveliness and intelligence as her gaze shifted.
Her lips were slightly tinted a light red, like cherries dripping with beauty, carrying an alluring sweetness.
Her fair skin seemed delicate enough to be broken by a blow, and under the reflection of the sunlight, it faintly emitted a soft luster.
She was dressed in a light blue long dress, standing outside Lu Hao's room. Occasionally, a gentle breeze would blow, lifting the hem of her skirt, like a blue flower swaying in the wind.
Lan Xiaoying stood there, as if she were a Fairy who had walked out of a painting, untainted by worldly affairs, yet so beautiful that one could not look away.
Lei Hui stood there, staring blankly at Lan Xiaoying, his eyes full of astonishment and greed.
Lan Xiaoying did not discover the thoughts in Lei Hui's heart; she only wore a faint smile, walking toward the two with light steps, her posture elegant and charming.
"You two, who are you? What is the purpose of coming to Big Brother Lu's residence?"
Hearing Lan Xiaoying's voice, Lei Hui felt even more astonished and immediately responded:
"Young lady, did you purchase this residence?"
"No, my Big Brother bought it."
"Big Brother? Who is your Big Brother? Where is he now?"
Upon hearing this sentence from Lei Hui, a look of vigilance instantly appeared in Lan Xiaoying's eyes.
"You two, since you don't know my Big Brother, why are you appearing in the residence that my Big Brother purchased? Don't you know that in this Nine Sun City, trespassing into someone's residence is an illegal act?"
Hearing Lan Xiaoying's words, Lei Hui exchanged a glance with Gu Old Head and laughed heartily:
"Young lady, you must be new here, right? Do you know who I am?"
"No matter who you are, you shouldn't be able to trespass into someone's residence at will, right?"
Gu Old Head heard this and angrily scolded:
"Are you blind?! This is the Vice City Lord of Nine Sun City, Vice City Lord Lei Hui. Aren't the rules in this city decided by the City Lord?"
"Slap!"
Lei Hui slapped Gu Old Head, sending him directly to the ground.
"Shut up! How are you talking to a young lady? You have no manners at all!"
"Hehe, young lady, I wonder how you are addressed? Let me introduce myself first; I am the Vice City Lord of Nine Sun City!"
When saying this, Lei Hui's chest couldn't help but puff out a little. In his view, a female cultivator with Mahayana Cultivation like this would basically be very surprised after learning his true identity, and some might even immediately become fawning.
But he had misjudged Lan Xiaoying.
Lan Xiaoying just calmly listened to what Lei Hui said, then replied indifferently:
"I'm sorry, you are not welcome here. Please leave Big Brother Lu's residence."
