Chapter 565: Chapter 566: This Trip is Very Satisfactory
“The three great families handle affairs, and I am at ease. Once the store is stable and the reputation is established, we can then expand outward.”
After exchanging pleasantries with the elders of the three great families, Li Xiaobai took his leave.
The trip to Chunxiu Tower marked a perfect ending. It might have left sothing to be desired for other cultivators, but for Li Xiaobai, it was indeed an impeccable journey.
This ti, his earnings were overflowing.
With his own store in the city backed by the big clans, there was no need to worry. He just had to wait for the event’s impact to slowly fernt.
The journey ho was silent. The Lamborghini sped all the way to the gates of Li Mansion.
“The Family Head has returned!”
“Welco the Family Head’s triumphant return!”
“Infinite is the Family Head’s mana!”
Seeing Li Xiaobai return safely, the excitent of the sect disciples and elders within the mansion was indescribable. The fact he had attended the gathering of geniuses and returned unscathed spoke volus.
Their new Family Head had definitely made a splash at the gathering.
Li Mansion was finally rising. From now on, they could walk with their heads held high in this region.
“I didn’t expect the Family Head to return so quickly; it seems the trip went smoothly!”
“Heh, that goes without saying. Our Family Head can even thrash those in the Mahayana Realm, let alone a re gathering of geniuses. What is there to fear?”
“I bet those geniuses were scared silly when they saw the Family Head, right?”
“Hahaha…”
The disciples were buzzing with excitent and joyously bantering.
Under the leadership of the Zhang Family Patriarch, they had to be cautious and often acted subserviently. Most of the ti, they could only boast and slap faces in front of weaker juniors. Over ti, this brought no sense of accomplishnt but served only as a vent for frustration.
But since Li Xiaobai took the lead, they were amazed to find that they could boast and slap faces in front of anyone. In their Family Head’s dictionary, there was no word for acting subservient.
They were truly elated. Just imagine the sense of achievent in showing off their skills in front of those family disciples who once looked down on them.
Of course, with the Premium Soup Product to aid them, their cultivation level would soon surpass those disciples.
“Did Young Master Li’s trip go smoothly?”
Zongdao and his wife also ca out to greet him. They had spent the past few days comfortably, reminiscing about the tis when they were still part of a great clan. All of this was thanks to Li Xiaobai.
“Quite smoothly. I got along well with many talented youths and successfully caught the attention of the Oiran. It was very satisfying.”
Li Xiaobai responded with a light smile, telling the truth. Indeed, he had beco the brightest among the crowd, though the reason for being the center of attention was different from what everyone else imagined.
“In these past few days, has any family’s cultivators co to stir up trouble?”
Li Xiaobai inquired.
“No, there’s been no movent from the Situ Household. It seems Young Master Situ also went to the tea party, so for the ti being, they have no leisure to deal with us.”
“Moreover, it’s said that in the heart of Aolai Country, the three ancient families are preparing for a trade war with many big clans. Right now, all clans are making preparations for it and don’t have the ti to bother with us.”
Zongdao spoke slowly, glancing unconsciously at Li Xiaobai.
He kept up with the events in Aolai Country, and major incidents like the three families withdrawing their shops were naturally known to him.
A few days ago, Li Xiaobai and the three families had reached an understanding. Behind the upcoming trade war, their shadow lood large. It could be said that Li Xiaobai was the true mastermind.
“Clan Leader Zong is well-inford. Indeed, the clans will take significant action in the next few days. If they are unprepared, my store will attract all of Aolai Country’s custors.”
Li Xiaobai nodded and said.
“There’s another matter. Earlier today, a group of people claiming to be Young Master Li’s friends arrived. I have settled them in the mansion.”
Zongdao continued.
“Where are they?”
Li Xiaobai’s expression changed. Without asking, he was sure they were his own senior brothers and sisters, who had arrived here first to wait for him. With the third master’s plan, he needed to discuss things with them to avoid any complications.
“It’s inside that bamboo building over there.”
Elder Zong pointed towards the bamboo forest that was emitting steaming vapors on one side and spoke.
“Understood.”
“Everything in the mansion proceeds as usual. The disciples must not neglect their practice.”
Li Xiaobai strode away briskly.
“Quick, continue with the cultivation. Don’t slack off or be lazy!”
A group of elders imdiately put on stern faces and started to hurry the disciples sternly, urging everyone to recommit to their training.
…
Inside the bamboo building.
In the bathhouse, several figures swayed and lay in the pool with faces full of relaxed enjoynt.
“It’s been a long ti since I’ve had a bath like this.”
“Yeah, ever since we parted ways with our junior brother, we haven’t had a bath. Despite the Kingdom of Won being full of females, each and every one of them is shy to the extre. Holding hands makes them blush. Their thinking is so traditional and old-fashioned to the extre. No wonder they can’t find partners.”
“Hehe, senior sister, you are the sa. Although you have strong strength, you still lack a bit of feminine charm. At this rate, I fear no young talents will fall for you in the future.”
“Junior sister, you are quite talkative today!”
“Bitter dicine is good for health. It’s all for your own good, senior sister.”
In the bathhouse, the two won, one in red and one in white, confronted each other with words filled with an undercurrent of hostility.
In response, Li Xiaobai could only helplessly push the door open and enter, “Senior brothers and sisters, it’s been a long ti. I’ve missed you all. Have you been well lately?”
“Great, better than ever!”
“From Central Province to the Eastern Sea, these days have been the most fulfilling in Ol’Fatty’s life, and it’s all thanks to our junior brother!”
Liu Jinshui said with a beaming smile.
“Hehe, those who achieve great things do not bother with trifles. From ancient tis to the present, which strong figure hasn’t erged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood?”
“Being chased and hunted is a mandatory experience for a strong person. Brother, you’re halfway there to success. I’m envious.”
Li Xiaobai waved his hand and also spoke with a beaming smile.
This matter can’t be blad on himself; it was all Liu Jinshui’s own doing. If you hadn’t thought about setting up, I wouldn’t have counterattacked.
“Let bygones be bygones. How about we split that pearl then?”
Liu Jinshui rubbed his hands eagerly, his eyes shining with excitent, as he couldn’t stop thinking about the rmaid’s Essence from the Eastern Sea.
“Get out of here. Our junior brother’s cultivation is advancing the fastest among us. That pearl is very useful to him. Don’t you dare get any crooked ideas,” Fourth Senior Brother Yang Chen said as he knocked on Liu Jinshui’s round head, speaking sowhat nacingly.
“Our junior brother has had a lot of gains from this trip, earning a fortune and even picking up a wife on the way. How does it feel?”
“I really can’t afford the granddaughter of the Old Dragon King. I ca to Aolai Country this ti on a mission.”
Li Xiaobai repeatedly waved his hands, the image of the rmaid warrior with scales all over her body was still vivid in his mind. When won go crazy, it’s truly frightening.
“What mission?”
The group asked.
Li Xiaobai recounted the plan of the third family head exactly as it was.
After hearing it, everyone drew a sharp breath.
“The waters of Aolai Country are so deep!”
“This third family head has such a vicious heart!”
