Yan Yushi strolled through the shop, glancing at the paintings hanging on the walls around him.
Almost all the paintings depicted various weapons or beasts.
However, the weapons lacked any spirit, and the beasts were poorly drawn, devoid of any vitality. Yan Yushi wasn't disappointed, as he hadn't expected much to begin with.
He was rely here to pass the ti.
The paintings here were far inferior to those the Yan Family had purchased at high prices, not even in the sa league.
In his view, Li Changqing hadn't even reached the threshold of being a painter.
These works were rubbish, incapable of leading anyone to enlightennt.
Let alone soone like him, who found enlightennt difficult to achieve.
Shaking his head lightly, Yan Yushi decided not to waste any more ti here. Just as he was about to leave, sothing on a shelf caught his eye.
"What is that?" Yan Yushi walked over, astonished.
A lifelike tiger!
Yan Yushi felt as if he were deeply drawn to sothing, step by step approaching the wooden sculpture.
He stood there, stunned.
This was the first ti Yan Yushi had seen such a thing!
He didn't know what it was, but the impact of this tiger was far stronger than any painting!
At that mont, in Yan Yushi's eyes, the tiger seed to co alive!
He could even hear the roar of the tiger echoing through the mountains.
Resounding through the sky, shaking his ears!
The sound reverberated continuously, shaking his spirit, making Yan Yushi feel an imnse pressure.
How could this be!
How could this thing possess such power?
Yan Yushi had a strong premonition that if he ditated on this object, he would definitely have a chance to achieve enlightennt.
To step onto the path of cultivation.
Could such a small shop actually have such a treasure?
"Do you like my wood carving?" At this mont, Li Changqing approached, seeing Yan Yushi staring at his wood carving for a long ti, thinking he might have a chance to sell it.
"Wood carving? Is this called a wood carving?" Yan Yushi didn't know how to describe it, as if any words of praise in the world seed dull at this mont!
This thing truly amazed him.
Yan Yushi's tone imdiately beca respectful, clasping his hands in a salute to Li Changqing, "Senior, I was just being reckless."
"Huh?" Li Changqing was taken aback. What was this about?
When was he reckless?
At this mont, in Yan Yushi's eyes, Li Changqing seed to beco mysterious and unfathomable. This wood carving was made by him, and it was probably more impressive than the painters hired by the Yan Family!
"Senior, is this wood carving for sale?" Yan Yushi asked nervously, fearing that such a treasure couldn't possibly be sold.
But Yan Yushi really wanted it.
He felt this wood carving was his hope.
With this, he would surely achieve enlightennt and step onto the path of cultivation.
By then, he would still be the young master of the Yan Family!
"This..." Li Changqing was about to say the wood carving was indeed for sale, but before he could finish, Yan Yushi, being impatient, knelt before him with a thud.
"Please, Senior, grant my wish!" Yan Yushi said expectantly.
Was it really necessary?
Did he like this wood carving that much?
Li Changqing could hardly believe it; Yan Yushi was such an art enthusiast!
"It's for sale," Li Changqing quickly said, "Get up."

"Thank you, Senior!" Yan Yushi was overjoyed.
"How much is this wood carving?" Yan Yushi quickly asked.
Li Changqing stuck to his previous pricing, holding up five fingers.
Five taels of silver.
If Yan Yushi thought it was too expensive, Li Changqing's bottom line was three taels of silver.
Any lower wouldn't do.
Seeing Li Changqing hold up five fingers, Yan Yushi didn't hesitate, pulling out a silver ticket from his sleeve and slapping it onto the table, "I'll take it."
Without waiting for Li Changqing to react, Yan Yushi hugged the wood carving to his chest and ran out, fearing Li Changqing might change his mind.
"In such a hurry?"
"Five taels of silver with a silver ticket?" Li Changqing picked up the silver ticket and was stunned.
Five thousand taels.
It was actually a silver ticket for five thousand taels.
"Damn." A curse slipped out, and Li Changqing's first thought was that the silver ticket was fake; otherwise, why would Yan Yushi run so fast?
But after examining it carefully several tis, Li Changqing couldn't see anything fake about the silver ticket.
It seed genuine.
Li Changqing slumped into a chair, feeling a bit lost.
A wood carving sold for five thousand taels?
This wasn't just an art enthusiast; this was madness!
He knew very well the purchasing power of five thousand taels in this world.
For ordinary people, they couldn't earn that much in a lifeti.
His son, a disciple of the Dao Mountain Ancient Land, probably only earned a little over a hundred taels a month. Who was this person, so wealthy?
Wealthy and foolish.
Could he retire after this one deal?
"Wait." Li Changqing cald down from his excitent, realizing that the person was just a child. He didn't know why he had so much money.
But five thousand taels, even for so noble families, wasn't a small amount.
If the family found out a child spent five thousand taels on a wood carving, they might co to claim it back, right?
If he didn't return it, wouldn't they skin him alive?
This mysterious world wasn't a place where reason prevailed; might made right.
"Sigh." Li Changqing looked at the silver ticket in his hand and sighed. He decided to wait and see. If soone ca to claim it, he would return it.
If no one ca...
Then he'd see.
Yan Family.
In the evening.
"Husband, have you really made up your mind?" Inside the room, a woman dressed in luxurious attire pleaded with the man in front of her, her face filled with anguish.
The man was none other than Yan Botao, the current head of the Yan Family.
His face showed no emotion, only determination in his eyes.
"I've decided, Ying'er. Although I'm the head of the Yan Family, it's not up to
alone." Yan Botao said calmly, "Yushi will be fifteen next year, and he hasn't even stepped into the realm of shedding mortality, unable to achieve enlightennt. He won't be able to lead the Yan Family in the future, so I have no choice but to make this decision."
"But this is too cruel for Yushi." The woman looked heartbroken.
"He's not young anymore. So things, he has to bear sooner or later." Yan Botao sighed, "If only Yuyun were a boy, she could inherit the Yan Family, and we wouldn't be in this situation."
With that, Yan Botao stepped forward and opened the door.
In the courtyard outside, six figures were already waiting.
All six fixed their gaze on Yan Botao.
"Patriarch, have you made up your mind?" A man in a blue robe stepped forward respectfully, "If not, we will continue to wait."
"Let's go." Yan Botao's cold gaze swept over them, "We need to find Yushi and tell him face to face that he will be stripped of his position as young master."
