I'm afraid of pain, so I put all my defense into it.

Inside the Zong family.

Several people sat around the table and talked happily.

From Zong Dao, Li Xiaobai learned that a hundred years ago, the Zong family was a big family in Aolai Country, and even had a tendency to become the largest family, which was more prosperous than the current Situ family.

However, the Zong family has always been upright and strict, and will never do anything to hide dirt, which has blocked the way of many people invisibly.

Even lions have time to nap. Under the constant bites of a large and small family, the Zong family has changed from a big family to its current decline in a few decades.

Some of the strong men in the family were killed, some were expelled, and some were scattered. Now only Zong Dao’s family is left.

"But now I know that the elders of the clan are living well outside the East China Sea and have no worries about their lives. I am already very satisfied."

Zong Dao's face was very calm. After so many years of setbacks, he had lived in both large manors and small thatched houses. He was also adapted. Now he just wanted to continue the incense of the Zong family and had no other long-cherished wishes.

"Only Hu'er is really worrying for my husband and me. We dare not ask for too much. We only hope that Mr. Li can teach Hu'er a few tricks during his stay in the East China Sea, so that he will not become a tool for others to vent their anger in the future."

Said the wife of the Zong family.

"Dad and Mom, the child will work hard to practice!"

Zong Hu said with a firm face.

"These are not a big deal. I will build a place for practice in this mansion. Not only Zong Hu, but your whole family can use it for practice. I believe that your strength will increase greatly in the near future."

Li Xiaobai waved his hand and smiled lightly.

"I just don't know who is the sister Yaya that Zong Hu often talks about, and has she ever lived in this mansion?"

Li Xiaobai asked with some curiosity. In addition to the four people in the Zong family, are there other people?

"You are talking about Zong Ya, right?"

"That is my eldest brother's daughter, with excellent talent. Since my eldest brother was killed by the Situ family, she has been living in the Zong family. I treat her like my own daughter."

"Today she is practicing in seclusion in the woodshed in the backyard."

Zong Dao laughed happily. He was very happy to introduce Zong Ya to Li Xiaobai.

Since ancient times, heroes have been unable to resist the temptation of beauty. Whether it is Zong Yao or Zong Ya, they are all first-class beauties. I believe that even a genius like Li Xiaobai will not be able to resist being tempted.

As long as the other party can be tied to the Zong family, perhaps the Zong family can once again occupy a place in Aolai Country. After all, behind Li Xiaobai is the second in command.

"Ya'er is a gifted person. She has been practicing in seclusion. She has already entered the Nascent Soul stage at a young age. It's a pity that my family doesn't have the resources to support her practice. This has delayed the child's life."

Mrs. Zong sighed and said slowly, with a worried look between her brows.

Not only Zong Ya, but even Zong Hu and Zong Yao's practice resources are almost out of their reach. If this continues, I'm afraid they will have to sell the mansion to exchange for enough practice materials.

"Mother, your birthday is in two days. Don't say discouraging words. My second brother and I are not interested in practice. It's enough to be with our parents and fulfill our filial piety. Just give the resources to Sister Ya'er."

Zong Yao patted Mrs. Zong's shoulder and smiled.

"Yes, cultivation is the most troublesome thing. Hu'er's biggest dream in this life is to follow Sister Yaya and eat and wait for death. With Sister Yaya's protection, there is no need to cultivate at all."

Zong Hu also nodded, with a serious expression on his little face.

"Yao'er, Hu'er..."

Mrs. Zong had tears in her eyes and a choked throat, but she didn't say anything in the end.

"So that's how it is. You two can rest assured. I can solve the problem of resources. It's not a big deal."

"But on the other hand, I want to make a deal with you now."

Li Xiaobai laughed. The scene in front of him was indeed very touching, but he came here with a plan, and it just happened to help the Zong family. Judging from the layout of the third boss, he should also be willing to help the Zong family.

"Sir, just say whatever you want. Although our clan is declining, as long as it can solve the cultivation problems of the younger generation, I will definitely not hesitate to give you the amount of spiritual stones!"

Zong Dao said seriously. He was waiting for Li Xiaobai to say this. He originally thought that the other party was already doing his best to guide his children in cultivation. He didn't expect that there would be an unexpected surprise. If the problem of cultivation resources can really be solved, it can be regarded as removing a worry from his heart.

However, he couldn't help but have a question in his heart. Is the other party really helping the clan just out of good intentions? Doesn't he have other intentions?

"Hehe, IThe Zong family mansion is not big, but it has all the necessary places. I want to divide the Zong family into two temporarily. One half is for your normal life and cultivation, and the other half is lent to me. How about it? "

"As for the cultivation resources, how about it as my reward?"

Li Xiaobai said with a faint smile.

"Mansion? That's no problem. I wonder what Mr. Li wants my dilapidated mansion for?"

Zong Dao asked with some doubts. In his opinion, the other party should take the opportunity to ask for spirit stones. His mansion is dilapidated and has no value. What's the point of it?

"I want to open a store in Aolai Country. The Zong family mansion is the starting point of the store."

Li Xiaobai said slowly with a calm expression.

"Open a store? "

The couple of the Zong family looked at each other, their eyes were even more confused.

To be honest, the shops in Aolai are almost a monopoly industry, all controlled by major families. Even if ordinary cultivators want to open a shop, they must pay rent to these families, or directly make their attitude clear and rely on them, otherwise the shop will definitely not be opened.

"Mr. Li, all the shops in Aolai are controlled by major families. They will not allow cultivators other than them to share the food with them, even if it is just an ordinary teahouse, not to mention that you plan to open a shop on the Zong family's territory. "

"Don't even mention opening a shop. Even if it is free, I'm afraid no customers will dare to come and consume. "

Zong Dao said truthfully. He didn't want Li Xiaobai to suffer any loss. Moreover, this move was simply pushing everyone to the forefront. If the store was built, those families would continuously send people to cause trouble in the future, and it would be difficult to resist.

"It's okay. I will bear the consequences of opening a store. The head of the Zong family doesn't need to worry about anything. Just celebrate the birthday of Mrs. Zong with peace of mind."

"This matter is settled. I will transform the Zong Mansion into a holy place for cultivation."

Li Xiaobai laughed.

"In that case, thank you very much!"
