“Save your family?” Luo Ruying asked quizzically.
“That's right. In fact, the Qi family is about to be removed from Nanli City.” Qi Yuan lowered her eyes sadly. “In a few days, a competition will be held between the Qi and Jiang families for control of the comrcial streets.
“In the past, the Qi and Jiang families each occupied 50%. But in recent years, thanks to the power behind them, the Jiang family has expanded nonstop and forcibly taken over my family’s businesses! Now, my family only controls less than 30% of the comrcial streets.“
“How do you want to save your family?” Luo Ruying asked.
“I want to invite you to present the Qi family in the competition!” Qi Yuan said imploringly.
Conflict often arose between chambers of comrce. If things beca serious, it could easily lead to rivers of blood!
Therefore, the various chambers of comrce ca up with a new thod to resolve conflicts by holding a competition!
If an irreconcilable difference arose between two parties, one party could propose a competition to the other.
Both parties would place their wagers and send cultivators representing themselves to compete.
The winning party obtained the right to call the shots.
Such competitions prevented unnecessary losses.
This competition was proposed by the Treasures rchant Alliance.
The Treasures rchant Alliance was a business coalition ford by countless chambers of comrce in the world.
It had been ford to aid the mutual developnt of its mbers, diate conflicts, and maintain the stability of business.
To maintain the fairness of the competition, when two chambers of comrce called for a competition, soone from the Treasures rchant Alliance would by present as a witness.
This ti, the Qi family had proposed a competition to the Jiang family.
The Qi family had suffered oppression from the Jiang family for years, so they finally decided to wager everything they had against the Jiang family and win back everything taken from them.
However, the cultivators who had agreed to fight for the Qi family had either suddenly gone back on their word or encountered all kinds of accidents.
Seeing Luo Ruying's strength, Qi Yuan made up her mind to ask Luo Ruying to participate in the competition on behalf of her family.
In fact, she did not want Luo Ruying to get involved in the family feud. After all, there was a powerful force supporting the Jiang family.
Sadly, she had no other solution, so she had to seek Luo Ruying’s assistance.
Luo Ruying contemplated briefly before nodding in agreent. “Okay. I will participate for your family.”
Firstly, she wanted to thank Qi Yuan for the mansion. Secondly, she felt that if the Jiang family gained more power in the city, the situation in the city would beco very unstable.
So she agreed to help Qi Yuan’s family with their problem.
“Great! Thanks so much, Big Sister Luo.” Qi Yuan bowed thankfully. The pressure in her heart alleviated much.
Luo Ruying shook her head. “You're welco. Treat it as paynt for accepting this house.”
Qi Yuan hesitated briefly before imploring Luo Ruying, “Big Sister Luo, I have one more request! Can you accept as your disciple? I can pay for it!”
From the mont Qi Yuan saw Luo Ruying’s beautiful and elegant moves, she was blown away.
Even though her family had a background in business, she had always dread of being a cultivator!
Luo Ruying did not expect Qi Yuan to request to be her disciple. After looking at Qi Yuan in surprise, she shook her head apologetically. “Sorry. I have no intention to take in disciples.”
She chose to live in seclusion here for stability, so she had no plans for taking in disciples.
Moreover, she still had a target on her back and did not want to implicate innocent bystanders.
After hearing the rejection, Qi Yuan looked very dejected. “Okay, sorry for asking.”
Since she was young, she had sought out many masters, but everyone had rejected her.
When she was a child, she had been injured, causing her ridians to be damaged and blocked, making it impossible for her to cultivate.
Qi Yuan felt that Luo Ruying had identified her condition and thought it was impossible for her to cultivate. She was probably rejected because she was not talented enough.
“Big Sister Luo, if soone's ridians are damaged, does it an they can forget about cultivating for the rest of their lives?” Qi Yuan asked with hope in her heart.
Luo Ruying could tell whom Qi Yuan was referring to by her expression. Although she felt sorry for Qi Yuan, she replied honestly, “Cultivators use their ridians to absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth. This is the foundation of cultivation. If soone is unable to do so, they are unable to cultivate. In order words, the path of cultivation hinges on ridians. The wider, denser, and longer the ridians, the greater success at cultivation.”
“Is that so? Sure enough, I’m not destined to cultivate.” Qi Yuan looked even more depressed.
In fact, she was not surprised.
She had already known about the crux of cultivation. She had simply asked one last ti to make herself completely give up.
“Big Sister Luo, in that case, I will take my leave…”
Just as Qi Yuan was about to turn around and leave, Ning Yechen chuckled. “It's true that people with damaged ridians can’t cultivate, but what if they recover?”
The mont he uttered these words, Qi Yuan froze on the spot. She turned around and looked at Ning Yechen in astonishnt.
She naturally knew this was an option.
But who in the world could treat damaged ridians?
She had never heard of anyone who could restore damaged ridians!
Judging from Ning Yechen’s words, he seed to have the ability to do so!
“Big Brother Ning, do you know how to restore my damaged ridians?” Hope rose in Qi Yuan’s heart as she looked at Ning Yechen expectantly.
“I understand a little,” Ning Yechen said modestly with his head raised.
Luo Ruying looked at Ning Yechen in astonishnt.
He had dical knowledge and could even treat damaged ridians.
This was no ordinary ability!
If she were still an Empress, she could effortlessly treat Qi Yuan's ridians and injuries, but she could no longer help her.
However, a re mortal like him seed to have a solution to Qi Yuan’s problem.
In hindsight, Ning Yechen had prepared dicinal porridge and very effective dicine for her when she was injured, so it made sense.
Perhaps he really knew sothing about dicine.
“Big Brother Ning, what do you need to do? Do I need to prepare any herbs?” Qi Yuan approached Ning Yechen excitedly and looked at him eagerly.
She had never been so excited in her life!
Ning Yechen smiled and shook his head. “You don’t need to prepare anything. Just follow inside and take off your clothes. I will poke a needle in you a few tis.”
