Chapter 268 Go to the Library
Not long after, Chen Li returned to his mansion.

After Daphne parked the carriage, she separated the carriage from the horses and took the horses to the stable to settle down.

After walking through the yard and coming to the gate, the housekeeper, who had been standing in front of the gate for nearly half a day, was still in high spirits. He bent down and said respectfully: "Master, you are back."

"Dinner is ready."

Chen Li just took one look at him, and through his posture and the vague sharpness on his body, he knew that he, the butler, had certain swordsmanship skills.

"Thank you." Chen Li nodded.

Not long after, Chen Li finished his dinner and returned to his room after taking a shower.

Although the city where the Connor family lives is not the imperial capital, it is still one of the top three cities in the empire. It is not an exaggeration to say that every inch of land is valuable.

The bedroom where he sleeps alone is over one hundred square meters, and it is luxuriously decorated, which shows the financial strength of the Connor family.

As the night progressed, Chen Li sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes and concentrated on feeling the surrounding environment.

After a while, he opened his eyes.

"Still no spirit."

"But the magic energy is stronger than other places."

The perception of the realm of heaven and man unfolds instantly.

At this moment, although he did not use spiritual vision, Chen Li could still perceive the world around him, but the picture was not as intuitive as spiritual vision.

He discovered that there was a huge energy source under the Connor family, which covered an unknown number of acres of the entire mansion, gathering the magic energy from outside the Connor family here.

Chen Li instantly judged that it was a magic array similar to the spirit gathering array.

Unfortunately, it was of no use to him.

"I still have 179 points."

"There is no spiritual energy here. How about exchanging spiritual energy from the system?"

Chen Li thought.

He took a quick look and saw that 100 points would be enough to exchange for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that would allow him to reach the early stage of foundation building in one go.

But after careful consideration, Chen Li gave up the idea.

System tasks have no time limit and he has plenty of time.

When he is sure that there is really no spiritual energy in this world, or that it is extremely difficult to obtain spiritual energy, he will not use system points easily.

When he encounters a problem that he cannot solve, that's when the system points come into play.

"Tomorrow's mission is to find a place with spiritual energy and the so-called outer god..."

Chen Li felt that if a place with spiritual energy really existed, it would not be too difficult to find. These places would be more or less different from other places because of the existence of spiritual energy.

But the Outer God, Chen Li, doesn't have a clue right now.

In Lenke's fourteen-year memory, there was nothing about Outer Gods. He also asked Daphne, and Daphne also said that she had never heard of the term Outer Gods.

Thinking like this, unable to practice, he had to lie on the bed and prepare to sleep.

This body is just that of an ordinary person and cannot be the same as him in reality. Even if he doesn't sleep for several months or even a whole year, it won't be a big deal.

Not long after lying on the bed, sleepiness quickly hit me.

The painting session at noon today was still a little heavy on this body.

However, just when Chen Li was about to fall asleep, there was a slight knock on the door.

"Master, are you asleep?"

Chen Li opened his eyes, and his perception of heaven and humanity unfolded... It was Daphne.

In fact, the sound she produced was very small. If Chen Li really fell asleep, he would not be able to hear it, and it was just enough that it would not disturb Chen Li.

But he was just on the verge of falling asleep.

"Come in." Chen Li sat up.

Hearing this, Daphne opened the door and came in, and saw her young master yawning.

Seeing this, she quickly said: "I'm sorry... I seem to have disturbed your sleep..."

Although the shackles in her heart had been released by Chen Li's preaching during the day, she still used to call Chen Li "Master and you."

"It's okay." Chen Li was not a person who got angry when he got up. He looked at Daphne and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I want to ask where these paintings should be placed..." Daphne said, holding a stack of rolled scrolls in her hands.

As soon as he finished speaking and saw those paintings, Chen Li suddenly thought that he forgot to take the paintings when he got off the carriage.

For him, those paintings are just by-products of the cultivation process, so naturally he doesn't care too much.

But for Daphne, every painting her young master painted was priceless.

Because there is no magic attached to the painting, but it can make people fall into the world in the painting. There is no doubt that it is a strange thing that has never appeared in this world. It can definitely be the highlight of the auction, especially for those who like to collect various art. For collectors of fine goods.

"When I was sorting it out just now, I found that the painting was still on the carriage, so I took it over immediately because I was afraid of being discovered by others..."

It was okay to be seen. What she was worried about was that someone would open it privately.

The odds were slim, but she worried nonetheless.

"Thank you." Chen Li smiled and said, "Just leave it here."

However, after looking at these paintings, he thought about it and seemed to think that there was much to do.

Although he has money, after all, the money comes from the Connor family. If possible, it is better to have his own independent source of funds.

Maybe these paintings can be sold.

However, it is still a bit early to say this.

He doesn't even have spiritual power, and he can't use any means to hide himself. If he sells it now, he will just tell others "I have something abnormal."

"Okay." Daphne nodded, and then placed the paintings on the wooden table next to the bed.

"Go to rest early." Chen Li said to Daphne.

"Thank you, Master."

Hearing this, Daphne felt warm in her heart and said with a smile: "Then I will resign."

"Okay." Chen Li nodded.

After Daphne left, she quickly lay down again, closed her eyes, and immediately fell asleep.

However, even if he is in a sleeping state, Chen Li, who is still a swordsman, is still alert at all times. If there is any dangerous movement around him, he will wake up immediately.

……

Silent all night.

The next day.

early morning.

Early in the morning, after breakfast, Chen Li was ready to leave Connor's house.

"Where are you planning to go today, Master?"

Hearing Chen Li say he was going out, Daphne thought Chen Li wanted to find a place to paint again.

"go to the library."

Chen Li's broken hair was slightly raised, revealing a smooth forehead. He wore a pure black top with the Connor family crest embroidered on the left chest, a white short lining with a rolled-up collar, and straight black trousers with a pair of round Leather shoes.

After tying his tie, Chen Li stood in front of the full-length mirror, looking at his current appearance, and nodded with satisfaction.

Apart from anything else, the original clothes still fit him very well.

The only thing that made him dissatisfied was that all the clothes had the Connor family crest on them.

Wearing clothes with the family crest undoubtedly tells others that he is a member of the Connor family, and it is impossible not to stand out.

Fortunately, he still has the power of the Sword Dao Celestial Being at his disposal, which allows him to completely integrate himself into the world and minimize his sense of existence.

"library?"

Although Daphne was confused, she didn't ask why.

"Yeah." Chen Li said, "But you don't have to go with me this time."

The purpose of going to the library is to find out where the strange places are that have been recorded, so as to search for spiritual energy.

Although there are books in the Connor family, most of them are magic books, which have no effect on him now.
