Chapter 525: Ninety Thousand Spiritual Stones
Gu Shi nodded and smiled,

"Don't worry, sister!"

This sister Yun is really righteous!
Gu Shiyi's favorable impression of her increased a little bit. Before following her to a private house, Han Yungu raised her voice and said,

"Uncle Huo, my disciple Han Yungu is here with a good friend to pay us a visit!"

After she finished speaking, she waited for a moment before a man's voice came out, somewhat surprised,

"Ms. Yun, are you in Fushan Town?"

Han Yungu responded,
"It was Junior Sister Liu who wanted to come, but Junior Sister Liu temporarily went into seclusion, so Master sent a disciple here instead. I hope Uncle Master Huo will grant me an audience!"

The person inside was silent for a moment before responding,
"come in!"

The gate in front of the two of them creaked open without wind. Han Yungu led Gu Shiyi in and saw a middle-aged scholar sitting on the right side of the hall and a middle-aged beautiful woman sitting on the left. When Han Yungu saw the middle-aged beautiful woman, her face changed and her expression was complicated for a moment, but she quickly restrained her expression and stepped forward to bow respectfully.
"Master Cui, disciple greets Master Cui!"

Then he bowed to the middle-aged scholar,

"Disciple greets Uncle Huo!"

The beautiful middle-aged woman frowned when she saw her.
"Why are you here? Why not Liu Cui?"

Han Yungu repeated what she said before. The beautiful middle-aged woman frowned tightly. The middle-aged scholar asked,

"Master Han, whose friends are you bringing with you?"

Han Yungu hurriedly introduced Gu Shiyi to the two of them.

"This is Gu Shiyi, Fellow Daoist Gu, a good friend I met here. She has a very precious tea branch that she wants to sell. I remembered that my uncle is here, so I brought her here to meet him!"

Gu Shiyi stepped forward to greet him. The middle-aged scholar smiled politely, and the beautiful middle-aged woman nodded indifferently.
"sit down!"

After the two men sat down, the middle-aged scholar asked,

"Gu Xiaoyou, who is your master?"

Gu Shiyi responded,

"No sect, no school, just a casual cultivator..."

The middle-aged beautiful woman's expression became even colder when she heard this. However, the middle-aged scholar was very kind and chatted with Gu Shiyi for a few more words before asking,
"I wonder if I could take out the tea seeds in Brother Gu's hand and have a look at them?"

Gu Shiyi nodded and took out the spiritual tea branch. When the middle-aged beautiful woman and the middle-aged scholar saw it, their eyes lit up. The middle-aged scholar glanced at the beautiful woman beside him, changed his indifferent expression, and stretched out his hand eagerly, saying,
"Friend Gu, please borrow it and have a look!"

Gu Shiyi smiled slightly and generously handed the tea branch to the other party. After the middle-aged scholar looked at it carefully, he said in surprise,

"This branch should be taken from a spiritual tea tree that is at least tens of thousands of years old. If I am not mistaken, it should be the Posuo spiritual tea that is rare nowadays. Posuo spiritual tea that is tens of thousands of years old is even extinct. I wonder where you got it from?"

Gu Shiyi smiled without saying anything. The middle-aged scholar smiled when he saw this.
"I am so happy to see the treasure, but I have violated the taboo. Please don't blame me, my friend!"

Gu Shiyi smiled back, and then the beautiful middle-aged woman took the tea branch and looked at it carefully, then raised her hand with some reluctance and returned the tea branch to Gu Shiyi.

"I wonder how many spirit stones you plan to sell?"

She was cold and indifferent to Gu Shiyi at first, but when she saw Ling Chazhi, her expression softened a little. Gu Shiyi smiled and raised a finger.

"Ten thousand spirit stones?"

The beautiful middle-aged woman glanced at the middle-aged scholar.
"It's not that expensive..."

Gu Shiyi shook his head,

"Senior, you misunderstood. I want to sell it for 100,000 spirit stones..."

"One hundred thousand spirit stones?"

The middle-aged beautiful woman and the middle-aged scholar were both surprised. They looked at each other and the middle-aged scholar said in astonishment,
"Friend Gu, although this tea branch is precious, the price... is really not worth so much..."

Gu Shiyi smiled and said,

"To be honest with you two seniors, this tea tree is my most precious treasure. If I wasn't so short of money, I wouldn't sell it. The price is..."

She glanced at Han Yungu who was sitting next to her.

"Sister Yun treats me so well. For her sake, I will give her 10,000 less spirit stones. I cannot give her any less than 90,000 spirit stones!"

"This……"

The two looked at each other, the middle-aged beautiful woman frowned and looked at Han Yungu, Han Yungu lowered her eyes and looked at her toes, the middle-aged beautiful woman said,

"Nephew Han..."

Han Yungu raised her head and responded,
"Yes, Master..."

"This little friend Gu is your good friend. Please explain to her that although this tea branch is a rare item, 90,000 spirit stones is really too high a price!" Hearing this, Han Yungu looked at Gu Shiyi and lowered her eyes.

"Master, this item belongs to Fellow Daoist Gu, and she has the final say on the price. If 90,000 spirit stones is too high, then... Fellow Daoist Gu should wait until the cultivators' conference and look for someone who is destined to be with you!"

The middle-aged beautiful woman's eyes flashed with anger when she heard this. Just as she was about to speak, the middle-aged scholar interrupted her with a smile,
"Friend Gu, the price of 90,000 spirit stones is a bit high. How about... lowering it a bit, how about 70,000 spirit stones?"

Gu Shiyi frowned and shook his head after hearing this.
"To be honest, Senior, I am short of Spirit Stones. I really am short of them. My Spirit Stones are very useful. I cannot be short of even a single one!"

The middle-aged beautiful woman's face darkened when she heard this. She looked at Han Yun and was about to speak. The middle-aged scholar glanced at her and said hurriedly,
"Forget it! Since you are my good friend, I will naturally give you this honor. Then... 90,000 Spiritual Stones!"

Gu Shiyi smiled and bowed to the middle-aged scholar.

“Senior is so generous!”

They were really generous. They handed over the spirit stones with one hand and the goods with the other. Seeing that the two men had received the good goods but looked like they were in pain and didn't want to talk, Gu Shiyi tactfully said goodbye to them. The two men didn't stay. Han Yungu also stood up and said goodbye to the two seniors. The beautiful middle-aged woman snorted at her and watched her accompany Gu Shiyi out. After they walked away, she turned around and said to the middle-aged man,

"You see, her elbow is bent outward. I made a wrong move at the beginning and let Huainan marry her..."

The middle-aged man frowned upon hearing this.

"Why are you doing this? They have been married for many years without you interfering. You have offended the head of the sect for no reason..."

The beautiful middle-aged woman snorted,

"This is not my fault. Huainan and Ying'er got back together, and it's also because that girl couldn't keep her husband's heart..."

Outside, Gu Shiyi was smiling and asking Han Yungu,
"Sister Yun, your master's aunt is your husband's master, right?"

Han Yungu smiled bitterly when she heard this.

"So my sister figured it out. I was so distracted that I forgot about it. Senior Sister Zhou was traveling with Master's Aunt. Since Senior Sister Zhou is here, Master's Aunt must be here too!"

At this point, he smiled bitterly again.

"It's hard to say. They were all in the yard when we came in. When they heard us coming, they left!"

After saying this, his expression darkened.
"Chen Huainan is a real man. If he has the guts, he should talk to me face to face. But when I came, he hid!"

Gu Shiyi laughed and said,

"In that case, it is right for me to ask them for 90,000 spirit stones. 90,000 spirit stones is not a small amount. It should make them feel painful for a while, right?"

Han Yungu smiled bitterly.
"Sister, are you venting your anger for me?"

Gu Shiyi shook his head,

"Sister, you are wrong. I am earning spirit stones for myself and helping you vent your anger. However, your uncle-in-law paid for these 90,000 spirit stones. Your aunt-in-law probably won't feel bad about it!"

Han Yungu responded,
"That may not be the case. My uncle and aunt have some... connection..."

The master's aunt and the master's uncle did have a past, but the master's uncle married someone else at the time. As a result, a hundred years after the marriage, the master's uncle's wife died in a fight. After that, the master's uncle has been single, but there has always been some ambiguous feelings between him and the master's aunt. This matter is privately rumored in the sect, and the Jade Immortal Sect is proficient in various spiritual plants, and the cultivation methods are related to plants. The master's aunt's natal magic weapon is a tea tree. The master's aunt travels around the world in order to find various types of spiritual teas.

Given her relationship with her master's uncle, he would most likely buy the spiritual tea branch from Eleven. However, she did not expect Eleven to bid so high a price, which really hit her master's uncle hard.

"They have some... some relationship, and they will probably be distressed for a long time!"

Gu Shiyi laughed and clapped his hands.
"To be honest, sister, I saw it as soon as I walked in!"

As long as the middle-aged couple in the room sat there, Gu Shiyi could smell an ambiguous sour odor as soon as he entered. When the tea branches were taken out, the middle-aged beauty's face was filled with joy, and the man acted according to her expression. There was something going on between them, so why would the man spend a lot of money to please her?

Haha, if you want to please a beautiful lady, how can you show your sincerity if you don't ask for a higher price?

Gu Shiyi didn't care about making more money, but he was a little worried about Han Yungu.
"If I do this, will Sister Yun be harassed by them when she returns to the sect?"

Han Yungu shook her head.
"Don't worry, my master is the head of the Jade Immortal Sect, and I am her most beloved disciple. Although they are my elders, they are not in charge of the sect..."

If he were really in charge, he would have no time to travel around!

Gu Shiyi felt relieved and laughed.

"That's right. I made a fortune today. I invited Sister Yun to have a drink!"

He then dragged Han Yungu to the town's restaurant and had a delicious meal. Han Yungu was worried and got drunk. Gu Shiyi hugged her with one arm and flew back to the cave outside the town. However, she could not enter Han Yungu's cave, so he took her back to his own cave. When the fox and the king saw her coming back, they came up to her and smelled her. The king immediately shouted angrily,
"Okay! Gu Shiyi, you are so disloyal. You went out to drink by yourself without taking us with you!"

Gu Shiyi coaxed him,

"Sister Yun got drunk today. I didn't expect that. I'll bring you some wine tomorrow. How about you drink it in the cave?"

The king was still dissatisfied after hearing this, but he still helped Gu Shiyi put Han Yungu in the empty room, mumbling something. Before leaving, he said,
"You can't forget it!"

"understood!"
