Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

Walking in the void, Li Guanqi frowned.

He didn't expect establishing such an organization to be so expensive.

It had just been established and they were already asking him for a million high-grade spirit stones!!

That was a million!!

But Ji Yuchuan told him that the establishment of the Cloud Gazing Pavilion had already cost three million high-grade spirit stones…

This directly choked him, but Ji Yuchuan also said that the initial cost investment was definitely high.

It wouldn't be so expensive later.

Moreover, the work of the Lamplighters all needed time to ferment. Currently, Qianqiusui's business profits were too low to support the development of the Cloud Gazing Pavilion.

Moreover, the disciples they were training were relatively young, and it would take at least ten or twenty years to see initial results.

Before that, these children needed a lot of resources to support them.

Li Guanqi didn't have too many objections to this, but Li Guanqi gave a clear order.

That is… the Cloud Gazing Pavilion does not accept any assassination-related mission requests!

The form of selling information can be coordinated with the Cloud Cauldron Auction House. Customers who buy things at the Cloud Cauldron Auction House can be given Cloud Gazing Jade Slips according to the actual situation.

Moreover, it can also be made into a level system. The higher the level of the Cloud Cauldron, the higher the authority to obtain information in the Cloud Gazing Pavilion.

This strategy brightened Ji Yuchuan's eyes, and he then agreed, just urging Li Guanqi to hurry up and send the spirit stones over when he left.

"Damn it… why is it so expensive!!"

Li Guanqi stroked his chin, muttering, "Should I borrow some from my father-in-law?"

Thinking of this, Li Guanqi's eyes lit up, he cleared his throat and took out a jade slip, and said with tearful eyes and grievance.

"Mom, I'm out of money… I've got a small force, burning money like crazy…"

Li Guilan, who was feeding chickens in the back mountain, raised her hand and wiped off her sweat. After noticing the message, she glanced at her hand covered with chicken feed.

Without the slightest hesitation, she casually wiped it on her silk dress. Seeing that it was Li Guanqi's jade slip, she was even more delighted.

After listening to Li Guanqi's voice, she felt even more distressed: "Okay, okay, don't worry, I'll tell Lao Meng how much you need."

"Your uncle is super rich, just burn it! The Meng family has no descendants, who else would we spend it on if not you."

The warm current in Li Guanqi's heart was like a roaring river. Li Guilan was really good to him…

Li Guanqi said a little embarrassedly: "That… Mom, it's a bit much…"

Li Guilan's loud voice could almost be heard outside the mountain.

"Much? How much do you want?"

"One… one million high-grade spirit stones."

"How much? One million? Are you looking down on your Uncle Meng!!"

"What a big deal, I thought you wanted three to five million…"

"You wait."

The corners of Li Guilan's mouth raised slightly as she put down the jade slip, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes increased, and her eyes narrowed with laughter.

"Hey, this stinky brat called me Mom."

"If he can open his mouth to me, then he doesn't treat himself as an outsider, that's good."

"Lao Meng!! Lao Meng, give me some spirit stones to spend."

Meng Jiangchu's aggrieved voice came from the jade pendant: "What give you! I heard it all in the front hall! You just give the stinky brat money?"

Li Guilan put her hands on her hips and pointed at the direction of the distant mountain and scolded: "Will you give it or not? If you don't, you can go to the front hall to sleep tonight."

"A hundred thousand or so and you're acting like a sissy, isn't the furnace open? Can't you just knock out two hammers?"

"Guanqi finally got a small force, won't you support him?"

Meng Jiangchu, who was originally sipping tea beautifully in the study, suddenly felt that the tea in his mouth was so bitter?

Looking at the small half bag of spirit tea on the table, he muttered: "This little bit of tea… one million spirit stones????"

"It's really damn expensive!! This rabbit is really calculating!!"

Li Guanqi was in a good mood after putting down the jade slip, humming a little tune and flew to the Great Xia Sword Sect.

If there was no other way, Li Guanqi would have thought about tying Pengluo to the Cloud Gazing Pavilion.

Doing nothing every day, just snapping it apart to play with…

Pengluo, who was in a mountain range in the Falling Glow Region, suddenly shivered, and a chill rushed straight to the top of his head from the soles of his feet!!

The green leaves on the top of his head exploded…

"Who who who!! What is it!! Who wants to harm me!!"

Pengluo's panicked little eyes scanned around, and a slightly immature voice suddenly came from his ear.

"Dad?"

"Uh… my son?"

"Dad!!"

"My son!!"

In the Great Xia Sword Sect's council hall, everyone sat solemnly on both sides.

Lu Kangnian, in the main seat, had white temples, and many more wrinkles on his face.

His eyes could not hide his exhaustion, and Li Nanting below threw out a blood-stained stone tablet and said in a cold voice.

"Tuwozi Village was slaughtered last night, and the sect lost two patrol disciples."

Qin Xian sighed and said in a deep voice: "This is already the eighth village, right?"

Lu Kangnian suddenly opened his eyes and said in a cold voice: "Continue to increase the patrol strength of the disciples, and the seven peak masters are on standby at any time!"

"In addition… as long as the disciples who participate in the patrol, go to Dan Peak to receive three times the share of pills."

"Let the sect's artificers create short-distance teleportation artifacts, and the seven peak masters are on standby at any time from now on!"

Lu Kangnian became more and more excited as he spoke, and his expression was slightly hideous as he said in a cold voice.

"These damned evil cultivators, wantonly causing chaos and slaughtering the people, really deserve to die!!"

Buzz!!!

A figure in white slowly appeared in the center of the sect hall, and Li Guanqi bowed respectfully with a solemn expression.

"Greetings, Sect Master."

Lu Kangnian's eyes lit up, the depression on his face dissipated a little, and finally showed a bit of a smile.

"You brat is finally willing to come back!"

Li Guanqi said: "There is no need to spend effort to build a teleportation array. It is better to build a warning artifact than this."

As soon as the voice fell, Li Guanqi raised his hand, and the wind and clouds surged between the sky and the earth. With a crackling sound, terrifying purple-black thunder continued to condense above Tianjian Peak.

In an instant, endless thunder gathered into a terrifying spirit sword that was a hundred feet in size!

But if you look closely, you can find that this condensed thunder spirit sword is condensed from thousands of extremely terrifying sword qi!!

The spirit sword hangs high above the mountain, exuding an incomparably majestic sword intent!

All the disciples of the Great Xia Sword Sect stopped what they were doing and looked up sharply.

Immediately, everyone's eyes showed excitement. This thunder sword… Li Guanqi is back!!

Li Guanqi's mouth curled up slightly: "With this sword, the abyss demons appearing within a hundred miles can be killed by themselves!"

Lu Kangnian's eyes lit up and said three good words in a row!

Lu Kangnian said in a deep voice: "Notify the sect disciples to absorb the residents of the villages and towns within three hundred miles to transfer!"

"Any further… the sect will not be able to take care of it!"

Everyone present changed their faces slightly, because this sentence… undoubtedly meant that the Great Xia Sword Sect had given up protecting the mortals outside this range.

But everyone knew that this was a helpless result.

Because they had tried their best.
