Chapter 402: Chapter 217: Enemies on a Narrow Road_2
But when Li Yunjing was about to take out money to purchase, his heart trembled. The daily living items were almost all worth several thousand low grade spirit stones, even nearly ten thousand spirit stones!
Li Yunjing did the math. With so many pavilions and towers in his "Qiuwu Manor," countless pieces of furniture.
If he were to replace all of them with high grade magical artifacts, Li Yunjing would probably have to spend millions of spirit stones!
The thought of this made Li Yunjing’s heart twitch.
"Forget it! I can’t afford it! I have time, I’ll slowly refine them myself!"
The high prices were like a cold bucket of water, completely dousing Li Yunjing’s desire to change his furniture.
It was at this moment that Li Yunjing realized just how poor he was.
The bit of wealth he had was barely enough for his cultivation needs.
To live a bit more comfortably was extremely difficult.
Li Yunjing estimated that without tens of millions in wealth, there was no way he could buy whatever he wanted at his current realm.
Li Yunjing sighed inwardly. If others knew his thoughts, he would definitely be reprimanded to death by other Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators!
The most miserable ones, first entering the Foundation Establishment Realm, might even have empty storage bags without any resources.
These cultivators had long exchanged all their resources for elixirs or spiritual objects to aid their breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Just like Cong Rujin whom Li Yunjing knew, this person had gone bankrupt in one go.
Luckily, that person succeeded and wouldn’t worry about opportunities to earn resources in the future.
This was the common state of affairs for those in the first and second heaven of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Even those cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Realm from clans and sects with some wealth mostly had only a couple of spiritual artifacts for show, the rest were just some spirit stones and elixirs.
Other forms of enjoyment?
Were cultivators in the first and second heaven of the Foundation Establishment Realm even qualified?
Ninety-nine percent of Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators in the Shenxiao Dao Sect didn’t have as much wealth as Li Yunjing!
Not just those in the first and second heaven of the Foundation Establishment Realm, but all Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators!
If people knew Li Yunjing’s thoughts, someone certainly would curse him every day.
This was truly a case of the well-fed not knowing how the starving suffered!
Without thoughts of spending, Li Yunjing felt much more at peace.
So many people made Li Yunjing quite exasperated. The lowest level here were all inner sect disciples!
How many inner sect disciples came to shop in a day?
"How many contribution points and spirit stones does Celestial Craft Hall earn in a day!"
It must be an astronomical number!
Celestial Craft Hall was indeed one of the wealthiest halls in the Shenxiao Dao Sect.
At least Li Yunjing was astonished by the scene before him.
"If my Star Moon Trading Company had even one-tenth of this business, I’d be set for life!"
Li Yunjing thought to himself.
"Senior Brother, what are you looking for? We have everything at Celestial Commerce Shop!"
A female inner sect disciple from Celestial Commerce Shop walked to Li Yunjing’s side, smilingly asked.
She was a part-time inner sect disciple who came to work for Celestial Commerce Shop on regular days to earn contribution points.
Her firm words instantly showed customers the power of Celestial Commerce Shop!
Li Yunjing turned to see a graceful female inner sect disciple walking towards him.
She had a slender waist and legs, her long hair falling on her shoulders, her face elegant and beautiful.
"Hmm? Everything?"
Li Yunjing chuckled and said, "Do you have a flying ship?"
"Ah?"
The woman had a high and mighty look, but hearing Li Yunjing’s request, the inner sect female disciple was stunned, her small mouth opened wide, looking at Li Yunjing in disbelief.
"Ah what? Do you have it or not?"
Li Yunjing shook his head helplessly.
Just a flying ship, was it such a surprise?
At first, she thought Li Yunjing was joking, but seeing his serious expression, as if he was really asking about the flying ship, made her heart pound heavily.
If he really wanted to purchase the flying ship, she would make a massive profit this time!
She wouldn’t need to work part-time at Celestial Commerce Shop for three to five years!
"Senior Brother, you’re serious?"
The female disciple stammered.
"Haha! Junior Sister, do I look like I’m joking?"
Li Yunjing laughed.
Seeing the other’s surprise and distrust, he didn’t mind.
After all, Li Yunjing was still wearing the inner sect uniform.
His identity token also indicated he was an inner sect disciple.
Li Yunjing was waiting for a task assessment, so naturally wouldn’t change his current status at the sect.
Dressed like this, anyone at a glance would see him as an inner sect disciple.
It was normal for an inner sect disciple to be unable to afford a flying ship, right?
"Hahaha! This is hilarious! A mere inner sect disciple dares to say he’s buying a flying ship?"
At this moment, without waiting for the female disciple to speak, a loud, harsh laughter came from beside her.
"Hmm? Sounds familiar?"
Hearing this voice, Li Yunjing raised his eyebrows and turned to see a group of people approaching.
The leader was a pale, pudgy man with a folding fan in his hand, pointing at him while laughing wildly.
As he looked around at the people beside him, he laughed wildly.
"Hahaha! He’s just boasting, He Shao!"
"Exactly! Look at yourself, do you have millions of spirit stones!"
"How are there such arrogant kids in the inner sect now? It’s ridiculous!"
"I’m ashamed to be associated with him!"
...
The followers around him mocked Li Yunjing as well.
Each one looked at Li Yunjing playfully, as if daring him to hit them!
"Haha! Is this not He Shao? Did you spend some time in the Law Enforcement Hall and now feel itchy again, wanting to relive the experience?"
Seeing who it was, Li Yunjing sarcastically retorted.
This person was He Bao, the young master of the He Family, whom Fu Chao had set up.
This guy had been dealt with by Fu Chao, and now he encountered him here.
He didn’t dare to retaliate against Fu Chao, so he was taking it out on him?
Since Li Yunjing and Fu Chao were friends, there was nothing more to say.
Fu Chao’s enemy was Li Yunjing’s enemy!
Faced with someone like He Bao, Li Yunjing didn’t even think of being polite!
Nor did he think about reconciliation or friendship!
Fu Chao’s setup had cost He Bao a profit of over a million spirit stones!
The enmity was incredibly deep!
If it were someone else, the He Family’s experts would have already besieged and killed Fu Chao.
Only Fu Chao, with his significant backing, was free from being provoked.
The He Family chose to lay low and let it go.
Now, upon seeing Li Yunjing, He Bao immediately recalled last year’s humiliation.
Thus, he brought people to surround Li Yunjing.
He couldn’t deal with Fu Chao, so he thought he could take on Li Yunjing?
This was He Bao’s thinking!
He wanted to vent his anger on him, how could Li Yunjing bear this silently?
For such an enemy, Li Yunjing couldn’t be bothered to act. He directly taunted.
"Li Yunjing, you’re looking for death! Do you think you’ve been doing well recently? Let me tell you, I’ve now advanced to the Foundation Establishment Realm! And become a steward of the sect, do you dare offend your senior?"
He Bao was furious, striding forward and pointing at Li Yunjing’s nose, shouting angrily.
"Oh! Foundation Establishment Realm? So what?"
Li Yunjing looked at him disdainfully and said coldly.
The contempt in his eyes was seen clearly by He Bao.
"I..."
He Bao raised his hand to slap Li Yunjing but suddenly remembered the incident with Fu Chao.
Back then, he was tricked by Fu Chao because of his impulsiveness and imprisoned for a month.
Now, was this Li Yunjing trying the same trick, plotting against him?
The outer sect competition wasn’t far away.
If he were sent back to the Law Enforcement Hall, he would miss earning another million spirit stones this year.
"Boy! Are you trying to trap me? Have you arranged for the Law Enforcement Hall to catch me as soon as I make a move?"
He Bao slowly lowered his hand, his expression changing from gloomy to smug, laughing proudly.
Convinced he had read Li Yunjing’s intentions, He Bao was very pleased with himself.
