Li Xuan eventually left Jiang’s mansion with a heavy heart. When he ca to his senses a mont later, he realised he had taken the wrong way again. Earl Chengyi’s mansion was clearly in the east, yet he had unknowingly ended up in the southwest of Nanjing City.
Considering he was not far from Zhuque Hall Yan, Li Xuan decided to just go with the flow and head towards Zhuque Hall.
He planned to claim all the rewards from the Liudao Division. One hundred and twenty major rits, six Liudao Diyuan Elixirs, and the high-grade magical instrunt, the Liudao Fumo Armor, each one of them was irresistible.
However, when Li Xuan arrived at the street where Zhuque Hall was located, he realized he had underestimated his reputation and influence in Zhuque Hall.
Surprisingly, few people greeted him as before, everywhere he went there was silence. The majority of the Liudao Division staff retreated to the sides of the street after seeing him, and then bowed towards him.
Especially the female colleagues who were particularly respectful, bowing their heads and barely looking up.
Li Xuan did recognise so of them, but when he tried to initiate greetings and small talk, they all appeared overwheld and spoke cautiously.
The usual girls he flirted with seed to avoid speaking to him, responding to him in whispers from several feet away.
Several tis, Li Xuan felt both bored and proud, secretly taking pride in himself.
Even though he had only been in this world for a little over four months, it could be said that he had made a na for himself.
In Jinling City, he could be considered a notable figure, not to be outmatched by his predecessors from other worlds.
However, just as Li Xuan arrived at the entrance of Zhuque Hall, he was t with a severe blow.
He happened to run into Peng Fulai and Zhang Yue returning from outside. Upon hearing Li Xuan’s thoughts, Old Peng sneered, "Reputation? Li, where did you get this confidence from? People are not even this respectful to vice lord Qiu. But I did hear a rumour recently that you, Li Xuan, have practiced so enchanting magic that harms won.
It is said that any stunning woman would lose her soul with one look from you; their bones would soften with a word from you; and if they had a al with you, they could possibly get pregnant. It is said that even n could easily fall for you, as long as you’re willing."
"There’s solid proof!" Zhang Yue nodded fervently, "How great a person is Xiaowei Jiang? The most outstanding genius of Zhuque Hall in decades, a young hero who reached The Fourth Gate before the age of twenty. Yet, for you, he was not even willing to value his own life.
Lady Xue Yunrou, a top-ranked maiden from a prestigious family in Beijing, turned a blind eye to her own reputation for you, Li Xuan.
And then there’s Princess Changle, rumored to be extrely proud, ordinary n cannot enter her eyes. But during the Grand Ceremony, she kept calling ’Xuan, Xuan,’ and even voluntarily fell into your arms in front of everyone.
Not to ntion Yue Qianqian, who has been lost and dispirited for you for the past few days. Hmm, and Duwei Luo, wow, isn’t this a guy? This proves that the rumour isn’t entirely baseless——"
Li Xuan was grinding his teeth, wondering why those girls didn’t dare to talk to him anymore. When he tried to smooth talk them, no one dared to respond. It seed that it wasn’t because his reputation was boosted after the fight against Jianling’s remnants, but because soone was spreading nasty rumors behind his back!
"Who the hell is spreading these rumors? He probably doesn’t know how to spell ’death’!"
As Li Xuan spoke, his fists were clenched tightly, his knuckles cracking like frying soybeans. His body was flashing like thunder, crackling with electricity.
He had decided to go to Chenghuang Temple in the next few days to find Tingtian Ao, to find out who was spreading these rumours, and let him know why flowers are so red.
That dog wouldn’t dare talk about Jianling’s descendants, but he probably wouldn’t dare to hide the na of the person who slandered him either.
Then Li Xuan rembered sothing, "By the way, you guys are free tonight, right? If you’re not, make ti for . Even if you have dates, postpone them. I need you both to help with sothing tonight."
"Tonight? Qianzhi, what are you going to do?" Peng Fulai stepped back, staring at Li Xuan with a vigilant look, "We won’t go to places like brothels, both Zhang and I have repented."
As he said this, he subconsciously touched his left eye which was still slightly bruised.
Zhang Yue also protected his chest with both hands, his face changing color, "Qianzhi, don’t tell you want to go to Qinhuai River? We don’t go there now, unless it’s for work. I also advise you, behave yourself!"
"No, I’m in no mood to go to Qinhuai River now." Li Xuan spoke with a puzzled look in his eyes as he watched the two n, then furrowed his eyebrows, "It seems like you two have recently been beaten up. Who would dare to do this?"
Zhang Yue and Peng Fulai looked at each other and shook their heads, "No, no! Nothing happened! It’s a joke, who in Jinling City would dare to touch us brothers?"
"Really? But Old Peng, how did you get that bruise on your left eye? And Old Zhang, where’s your luscious hair gone? Why is it so much shorter?"
Li Xuan observed closely, then put on a loyal and righteous air, "Did soone threaten you? Don’t worry, we’re brothers for life. No matter who bullied you, we’ll take them on together. Even if it’s a heavenly-level being, I’m not afraid, I’ve won before, and I won’t be afraid!"
At these words, Zhang Yue was deeply touched, "It was soone from the palace——"
He was originally going to say that they were beaten up by female officials sent by the palace last night, and Xue Yunrou’s senior brother, that bastard nad Xuanchenzi. But just as he said two words, Peng Fulai heavily stepped on his foot. The latter laughed and said, "It’s just a joke! That was an injury we got from going to the palace with you a few days ago. That was quite a tough fight."
Zhang Yue was enlightened and imdiately nodded like a pecking chicken, "Yes! Yes! It was an injury from going to the palace. After you left the tunnel, Old Peng and I killed several of them."
Li Xuan finally relaxed: "I see, then it’s settled. This isn’t the place to talk about it, you will know the details when the ti cos."
Actually, he was planning to sneak into the Jiang Mansion at night. He couldn’t rest easy without personally checking on Jiang Hanyun.
After that, he left the two people looking at each other in surprise and headed towards the rit Calculation Tower.
Seeing Li Xuan again within a month, the Chief of the Jigong Tower had a sowhat complex expression. He took a deep look at Li Xuan before saying, "This ti, Li Xuan, you stopped the Drought Demon, pacified the Nanjing earthquake, hunted down the remnants of Jianling, and saved the Second Prince and Princess Changle. These are your four achievents. Fumo Zongguan and others have unanimously decided to promote you to Fumo Xiaowei, taking control of Mingyou City imdiately.
In addition, you have 120 major rits, an excellent ’Liudao Fumo Armor’ tailored for you, two Liudao Diyuan Elixirs, a chance for a heavenly master to consecrate you once, and three days of Wuyi Mountain ti——"
These were almost exactly the sa as what Zidie had told him, and even more, which made Li Xuan overjoyed.
Such as Wuyi Mountain, it is said that it is a mountain occupied by the Liudao Division. Inside is an unbreakable stone wall by mortal force. Only those with martial cultivation entering the ’soul’ realm can slightly damage the stone wall.
In the 1,200 years since the establishnt of the Liudao Division, a total of 47 heavenly masters have left marks on the wall, infusing their own martial insights into them.
That was a reward more joyous than the top floor of the book collection building.
However, afterwards, the elderly, scholar-like chief unfolded a large bundle of scrolls in front of Li Xuan: "Besides, the things in these scrolls are on a tid discount for you."
"Tid discount? What does that an?" Li Xuan frowned slightly, feeling a sense of deja vu from shopping in malls in his past life.
"It ans exactly that. Within one month, you can get these things on the scroll for 70% of the price."
The Chief of the Jigong Tower pointed at the scroll: "Like this ’Iron-Red Armor’, a high-grade magical instrunt designed for bird Protection Spirit Pets, normally requires ten major rits, now it only takes seven. There’s also the Liudao Diyuan Elixir, which normally takes three major rits per pill, but now it only takes two."
Li Xuan’s eyebrows raised slightly, he was interested in what the Jigong Tower Chief said.
But then, his forehead was covered in sweat.
How should I put it? There is indeed a discount.
This ’Iron-Red Armor’ does indeed have a 30% discount, but you must also purchase another ’Red-Thunder Elixir’ used for bird Spirit Pets, which sells for twenty major rits.
This thing wasn’t an elixir, but what they called an ’External Pill’.
If you regard a Wu cultivator as a car, then this ’External Pill’ can be considered an additional power system that can be installed. It can provide people with extra power and an extra fuel tank.
So this ’Red-Thunder Elixir’ was extra expensive. The two combined would require at least twenty-one major rits to redeem.
Do you think it ends there? Then you look down on the Liudao Division.
There’s more, if Li Xuan chooses another magical instrunt shoulder armor for his Spirit Pet to live on after these two items, he can subtract five major rits from the 70% discount.
The rest of the list was pretty much the sa.
Anyway, if he wanted to get the biggest discount, he would have to use fifty or sixty major rits for a complete set.
After reading this, Li Xuan thought to himself, how brilliant the ancients were! Isn’t this exactly like the ituan and Ele business models?
In his past life, when he ordered takeaway, he just wanted to eat a bowl of noodles for ten yuan, but he always ended up buying twenty or thirty yuan worth of food that one person couldn’t finish.
Also, it’s the sa in clothing stores. If you want to buy one item, you have to bring ho three.
Li Xuan looked at the scrolls for a long ti and finally reluctantly pushed them all away. Except for the supre magical implent, he didn’t want anything else now, and he wouldn’t let anyone fool him.
The Chief of Jigong Tower seed to have expected this, and he opened another scroll in front of him.
"If Xiaowei Li is not interested, you can also look at this one."
Li Xuan took a glance and then cursed ’despicable’ again. The first item in it was a magical object called ’Taoheng Xuanji’, although only a high-grade magical instrunt, it can help one harmonise Yin and Yang. The second item ’Guixuan Elixir’, specifically pointed out that it can temporarily prevent the transformation into a demon.
The Jigong Tower Chief responded with a smug smile: "70% off! And it also includes a discount."
At this ti, Li Xuan’s mood was truly ssed up.
