Chapter 115: Getting Chestnuts from the Fire (Please Subscribe)

Chen Xuan walked out of the private room and went to the bottom of the teahouse.

"Let's go!"

As soon as he left the teahouse, Xu Anjing asked, "Brother Chen Xuan, what happened?"

"nothing."

Chen Xuan said calmly, "We can't go to the Jinyang Sect. The jade token that identifies us as a deacon has been taken back."

"Oh, my husband, how could they do this!"

Jiang Yingxue's cheeks turned red with anger.

"It's okay. Actually, I don't really want to go to Jinyang Sect."

"It's better not to go. With Yixuan's ability, there's no place in the world he can't go!"

Su Zhengming looked happy.

Chen Xuan will not go to Jinyang Sect, which means that he can continue to follow them.

Xu Anjing's expression looked a little unnatural.

"Brother Chen Xuan, how could they do this?"

"It's a temporary identity, which is normal. I won't say any more. We're all tired. Let's find an inn to rest."

"How about going to my humble abode to rest?"

Xu Anjing extended an invitation.

"Thank you for your kindness, Master Xu. We'll make do for one night and then rent a room tomorrow."

After saying goodbye to Xu Anjing, Chen Xuan found a good inn.

"It's so expensive, one room per night costs two spirit stones!"

Su Zhengming was still muttering.

Chen Xuan smiled.

"Brother Su, this is the Immortal City!"

"Yes, this is the Immortal City!"

Su Zhengming muttered to himself, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

You know your own skills clearly.

Although he has been able to refine the Qi-nourishing Pill, he is still struggling on the break-even line.

If I don’t improve my alchemy skills as soon as possible, how can I survive in this Lingyun Fairy City with its high prices?

"Rest up, we still have to go house hunting tomorrow!"

Chen Xuan took Jiang Yingxue into the inn room slowly and calmly.

late at night.

Jiang Yingxue is counting her assets.

Forty medium-grade spirit stones, more than eight hundred spirit stones.

That's all the cash they have.

"Only 4,800 spirit stones! Husband, this Five Poison Sect is truly despicable. They owe us 60,000 to 70,000 spirit stones!"

"Whatever you owe me will be returned double in the end!"

Chen Xuan said calmly.

The closer it gets to the insect breeding results, the more dangerous Chen Xuan will be.

In three years, under the catalysis of Chen Xuan's Insect Breeding Pills, more than 3,000 strange insects will be gradually advanced to medium quality.

With sales of more than 300,000 spirit stones, the commission alone would be 60,000 to 70,000 spirit stones. How could the Five Poison Sect be willing to give it to him?

Fortunately, Chen Xuan is not stupid.

Whether it was the Xiao family or the Five Poison Sect, he had advanced a lot of contribution points, which, in exchange for poisonous insect corpses, were enough for his cultivation needs for the next three years.

Strictly speaking, Chen Xuan was the one who got something for nothing.

Extract the essence of insect spirits from the corpses of poisonous insects, mix them to make insect-raising pills, raise rare insects to advance to medium-quality ones, obtain a large number of contribution points, and purchase the corpses of poisonous insects.

The whole process forms a complete closed loop.

As long as the Five Poison Sect abides by the rules and allocates contribution points or spirit stones as promised, Chen Xuan can continue to play this game.

So, there's nothing to be angry about.

If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for not being strong enough and not being qualified to sit at the same table with Wu Du.

The next day, after breakfast, Chen Xuan and others came to the Government Affairs Hall of Lingyun Fairy City.

He plans to rent a shop and a residence.

If the space is big enough, I can share the rent with Su Zhengming.

"What's the matter?" the sect's servant in the government office asked impatiently.

At first glance, he looked like a country bumpkin who had just entered the fairy city. There was nothing valuable on his body.

"Sir, I want to rent a room."

"Oh, any requests?"

"Class A housing, on a mainstream street, with a shop in front and a backyard in the back. The bigger the backyard, the better."

The clerk who was handling the registration stood up immediately.

"Excuse me, sir, what is your last name?" "Chen Xuan."

"Mr. Chen, please follow me!"

Behind, Su Zhengming was muttering.

"How many spirit stones does a Grade A house cost?"

"Father, please stop talking!"

The servant led everyone to a room specially used for room selection.

"You guys wait outside. Mr. Chen, please come in!"

After opening the door and entering the house, I saw a three-dimensional picture of the entire Lingyun Fairy City on the wall.

"Mr. Chen, this is our West City. All the Class A houses are here!"

The three-dimensional image enlarged, and the core area of West City appeared in front of Chen Xuan.

"There are still a dozen or so Grade A houses left. Mr. Chen, which one would you like to choose?"

Chen Xuan calmly handed over a mid-grade spirit stone.

"Please help Chen Xuan solve his doubts."

"No problem!" The servant took the spirit stones and asked enthusiastically, "May I know how many family members there are, Master Chen? What kind of shop do you want to open?"

"Four people, maybe? We run a talisman shop and also sell some loose pills."

"Is that so? Mr. Chen, I suggest you pick this shop, number 78, Jiazi. It's on the busiest commercial street in West City. The shop's frontage is a bit small, but it has a large backyard and a good location."

"Can you take me to see it in person?"

"No problem, I'll take Master Chen there right away!"

Collecting spirit stones here and getting commissions there, the sect's servants are in high spirits.

Chen Xuan and others followed the sect's servants to House No. 78, Block A.

It's really good.

On the main street of the fairy city, the door is slightly small, about ten feet wide, but the space inside is deep enough, five feet high.

There is a courtyard, five living rooms and two training rooms at the back.

Chen Xuan nodded and asked, "How do I rent this house?"

"The prices are fixed. One thousand two hundred spirit stones a year, two years' rent, one year's deposit, a total of three thousand six hundred spirit stones." said the sect servant.

"It's not expensive!" Chen Xuan said with a smile.

Su Zhengming's face turned pale behind him.

Even if you sell him, you won’t earn more than a thousand spirit stones in a year.

The market price of a year's salary for a cultivator family in the late stage of Qi training is only two to three hundred spirit stones.

"Brother Xuan, how about we look at other houses?"

Su Zhengming whispered behind him.

"No need, since you are so thoughtful, what you recommend to us must be the best!"

"I know what you're talking about! Don't worry, Master Chen. We've always been diligent and dedicated to our work! Xiancheng isn't a big city, but it's not a small one either. We'll inevitably have dealings with it in the future. Don't worry! We won't let you suffer any loss!"

"This house!"

The psychic green snake also confirmed his choice with his divine consciousness.

The store’s contents are not the main point; the key point is that the backyard is large enough for the strange insects to practice.

After advancing to the highest grade, the effect of the insect spirit essence is greatly reduced. If the strange insects want to break through, they must practice on their own, awaken their bloodline talents, and enhance their demonic power.

Think about it.

After a cultivator advances to the late stage of Qi training, the speed of cultivation slows down significantly, and the effect of elixirs decreases significantly.

Otherwise, if one could advance by simply taking pills, then cultivation would be too easy.

In order to avoid any further complications, Chen Xuan completed the transaction on the same day.

After paying the spirit stones and making new jade identity cards for Chen Xuan and Jiang Yingxue, the shop was rented to Chen Xuan and his wife.

"Who are these two?"

"My brother Su Zhengming and my niece Su Yanping. We live together."

"also!"

Thinking of the reward of a mid-grade spirit stone, the sect's servant went along with it.

Similarly, identity jade cards were obtained for Su Zhengming and Su Yan.

An hour later, the matter was settled and Chen Xuan and others walked out of the Government Affairs Hall.

"Xuan'er, how can this be so embarrassing! How much of the rent should we share as father and daughter?"

"Forget it, it's not easy for Brother Su either."

"That's not good!"

"Consider it my gift to Sister Yanping when she gets married in the future!"

"Row!"

Su Zhengming agreed readily.

If he really has to share the rent, he can't afford it because it's so expensive!

Anyway, I owe Brother Xuan more than once or twice. I won’t worry if I owe too many favors!
