In this way, relying on this trick, Luo Qianqiu made a fortune in silence, earning a huge sum of money in just a few days without causing a sensation.

The fact that he could frequently purchase goods, and that each purchase involved hundreds of kilograms of raw materials, still attracted the attention of some interested parties.

On the tenth day, Luo Qianqiu had just left the stone workshop of the Purple Mansion Sacred Land and was on his way back to the inn.

Suddenly, his powerful intuition caught a burning gaze.

It wasn't the kind of gaze that would be glanced at and then looked away, but rather a purposeful probing, like a predator lurking in the shadows, its cold pupils fixed on its prey.

Luo Qianqiu had keen senses, and his primordial spirit, strengthened twice, instantly locked onto the other party's location. He looked back along the direction of the gaze and finally landed on the top floor of a magnificent palace.

But when he looked in that direction, he saw nothing; the other person had already left.

"Someone's watching me!" Luo Qianqiu instantly guessed the truth.

He has been very careful lately. Even when he is just buying goods, he always moves from place to place and never buys from the same gambling stone shop twice.

However, it is impossible to say that everything is foolproof. If someone pays attention, they will easily discover what he has been doing and know that he has spent at least several thousand kilograms of resources in recent days.

Even if the person inquiring doesn't know his specific gains, they can deduce from the sources of his spending that he has reaped considerable rewards.

Otherwise, who would be so bored as to spend hundreds of kilograms of raw materials every day to buy stones?

"Looks like I should stop now," Luo Qianqiu thought to himself.

In any case, he has made amazing gains during this period, and his net worth has exceeded 30,000 jin of source material, so he no longer needs to worry about cultivation resources.

As for the gaze secretly watching him, Luo Qianqiu wasn't too worried.

The opponent's cultivation level is not weak; he is at least at the fifth level of the Dao Palace, and he is one of the best among them, enough to crush the likes of Boss Li.

But that's all!

For the past nine days, Luo Qianqiu has been cultivating his Heart's Divine Treasury every night using the Fiery Red Source. His cultivation has progressed rapidly, and he is only one step away from perfection.

With the increase in his cultivation level, coupled with the doubling of his primordial spirit, his combat power was many times stronger than when he killed Li Lao Er.

If he were to fight Boss Li right now, he would be equally confident of crushing his opponent.

Therefore, although Luo Qianqiu was wary of the person in the shadows, he was not afraid to fight him!

"What happened to you just now?" Lin Jia asked immediately after returning to the inn.

She had sensed something was wrong earlier, but since there were many people around, she hadn't asked. Now that she was back at the inn, she could no longer suppress her curiosity.

"Someone was watching me from the shadows just now. Someone must have been paying attention to what I've been doing lately," Luo Qianqiu said truthfully without hiding anything.

Lin Jia was startled and quickly asked, "Who is that person? Did you see them?"

While on the street, Luo Qianqiu glanced back. She didn't understand at the time, but now she felt terrified, as if she were being watched by a venomous snake.

"I didn't see him. He was very alert and disappeared quickly." Luo Qianqiu shook his head, but looking at the nervous Lin Jia, he chuckled and said, "Don't worry, with me here, he's not much of a threat."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jia instantly felt a sense of security, and her previously anxious heart finally settled down.

"Cultivate. Here, only by becoming strong can you face everything without fear," Luo Qianqiu said.

The night passed peacefully.

The next morning, after leaving the inn, Luo Qianqiu and Lin Jia immediately headed out of the city.

Upon arriving at the city gate, the gaze descended once more, but this time the person was weak, merely an ordinary cultivator at the fifth level of the Dao Palace.

Such beings are utterly powerless before Luo Qianqiu, whose primordial spirit has been enhanced twice.

Following his senses, Luo Qianqiu saw the source of his gaze.

He was a middle-aged man who looked to be thirty-four years old, but was actually quite old, with half of his hair turned silver-gray.

When he saw Luo Qianqiu looking over, he realized that he had been exposed.

But unlike ordinary people who secretly keep watch, the middle-aged man remained calm and composed after realizing he had been exposed, and even made eye contact with Luo Qianqiu.

He had a strong sense of security and was not afraid of Luo Qianqiu discovering his existence, so he stood openly on the second floor of a pavilion.

It felt as if he wasn't secretly watching Luo Qianqiu, but openly monitoring his movements.

"Is he the one who was hiding last night?" Lin Jia noticed Luo Qianqiu's unusual behavior, and then followed his gaze to see the middle-aged man on the pavilion.

Luo Qianqiu's eyes were cold as she calmly said, "It's not him. He's much weaker. He's probably just a dog that was with that person last night."

"For a dog to have such demeanor and cultivation, it seems that the person last night was no ordinary person." Lin Jia felt a little scared, but since her husband said that the other party was just a dog, she naturally wouldn't give him any face.

She was very determined to follow her husband's lead.

The two continued their conversation without restraint, and the middle-aged man on the pavilion heard it all clearly, his face instantly turning ashen.

Since joining the Purple Mansion Holy Land, he had never been humiliated like this. If he hadn't remembered the order of the candidate holy son, he would have wanted to rush out and kill these two juniors.

"Let's go, don't worry about him." Luo Qianqiu said calmly, taking Lin Jia's hand as they walked out of the city gate.

The middle-aged man on the pavilion flashed and followed closely behind as he walked out of the city gate.

Soon, the two sides arrived at a place a hundred miles outside the city.

Suddenly, purple divine power surged around the middle-aged man, and his speed increased dramatically. He blocked Luo Qianqiu's path, looking down at him with disdain and saying, "Boy, hand over what you've gained during this time, and I'll spare your life."

His attitude was arrogant and condescending, and he didn't take Luo Qianqiu and Lin Jia seriously at all.

This is not bluffing, but a genuine contempt.

The middle-aged man did not have a high status in the Purple Mansion Holy Land. He was nominally called a steward, but in reality he was just a errand boy, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a servant.

But being born into the Purple Palace meant that his status was destined to be higher than 97% of the people in the world.

As the saying goes, even a seventh-rank official can be found at the prime minister's gate.

Out of respect for the Purple Mansion Holy Land, even cultivators with higher cultivation levels than the middle-aged man, unless they came from a powerful faction, would address him as a fellow Daoist.

If this continues, it will be hard for them not to go crazy.

"What are you looking at?" The middle-aged man couldn't help but ask angrily when Luo Qianqiu didn't answer him and instead looked around.

This junior repeatedly disregarded his authority, causing the middle-aged man's anger to surge.

"Are you alone? Where is the person who was spying on me last night?" Luo Qianqiu asked.

"Hahaha..." The middle-aged man said as if he had heard a joke, "You think you can get the candidate for Holy Son to come in person?"

"A candidate for Holy Son!" Luo Qianqiu's gaze sharpened as he looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "Which holy land do you come from?"

"Since you're going to die anyway, I'll satisfy your curiosity." The middle-aged man said calmly, his expression turning solemn. "I am the stone gate steward of the Purple Mansion Holy Land in Tianyu City."

"The Purple Mansion Holy Land!" A hint of worry appeared in Lin Jia's eyes.

This is a colossal entity on the boundless land of the Eastern Wilderness, a super being that has overlooked the changes of the Eastern Wilderness for 100,000 years, and is one of the true masters of this land.

Almost every Holy Lord of this holy land has been one of the top ten masters in the Eastern Wilderness.

To the two of them now, such a colossal entity was no different from the celestial court in the clouds.

"Every holy land has many candidates for holy sons. Which one came to Tianyu City?" Luo Qianqiu asked somewhat casually.

Knowing his personality well, Lin Jia's heart skipped a beat, and she vaguely guessed what Luo Qianqiu was thinking.

It was just so shocking that she could hardly believe it.

"You're asking too many questions when someone's about to die, aren't you?" The middle-aged man was somewhat surprised, but still said, "It's fine to satisfy you. He is Yang Wuduan, a candidate for Holy Son, and he's among the top candidates for Holy Son."

"Thank you very much." Luo Qianqiu sincerely thanked him, and then, the Buddha's light shone in all directions, and the Great Bright Fist was unleashed with tremendous force, shaking the heavens and earth!
