I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 224: Parting Ways

Lin Qing was taken aback. Could it be that the Bai Bao Tower would sell for 200,000? If that were the case, it wouldn't be a bad idea. Buy it for 200,000 and let mortals work hard to dig for a few years, and it wouldn't be impossible to make a profit.

However, Lin Qing was thinking too optimistically. Elder Meng pondered for a moment and said, "If it's only 200,000, I can make the decision. Lin Qing, you can take the Xuan Yu Market or any mining vein."

"The Xuan Yu Market or any mining vein?"

Upon hearing this answer, Lin Qing shook his head. This was impossible. His Lin family would never buy it.

At this moment, Elder Meng looked at Lin Qing and took the initiative to say, "Lin Qing, you don't have to offer such a low price. You and I both know that it's impossible to obtain these things. Of course, 1.7 million spirit stones is also high. How about I propose a price?"

"1.5 million spirit stones! If Lin Qing can afford it, all these things will belong to the Lin family."

Upon hearing this number, Lin Qing had nothing to say. He picked up his tea and drank it, no longer looking at Elder Meng.

This kind of behavior was actually a way of showing the guest out, but Elder Meng didn't want to leave. "1.45 million?"

Lin Qing remained unmoved.

"1.4 million?" Elder Meng almost gritted his teeth as he spoke.

Lin Qing still didn't budge.

"Lin Qing, 1.35 million is the lowest price. As long as you buy it, you can create a profit of at least 2 million in a few decades. This is a great opportunity. Once today is over, it will be gone."

Lin Qing finally spoke. Seeing that Lin Qing was about to speak, Elder Meng's face lit up, but then it fell.

Lin Qing said, "Elder Meng, taste this tea. It's different. It's a kind of spiritual tea that my Lin family has recently obtained."

Lin Qing wasn't making things up. This spiritual tea was recently cultivated by the Lin family. It was quite extraordinary to drink, with the effect of clearing the mind and focusing one's thoughts. If it was taken out to sell, even a tael would cost ten spirit stones.

Upon hearing this, Elder Meng also knew that Lin Qing wouldn't buy it. After a long time, he sighed, "Lin Qing, you will regret it."

Lin Qing thought to himself that Elder Meng was still not giving up.

"Well then, since Lin Qing is like this, I won't disturb you anymore. In the future, these things will belong to the other two sects. Don't blame the Bai Bao Tower for not informing you in advance."

"Elder Meng, please take your leave," Lin Qing said without courtesy.

Elder Meng nodded and left without saying a word.

Watching him leave, Lin Qing immediately became worried. Today, with the arrival of the Bai Bao Tower, he felt that the beast tide might come earlier than expected.

Lin Qing's thoughts were correct. The Bai Bao Tower had already received the news that the Yan Kingdom, Wei Kingdom, and several powerful intelligent beasts had reached an agreement. These beasts would no longer attack these two countries, and undoubtedly, the target would now be the weakest Zhao Kingdom.

This beast tide originated from the catastrophe of the Wuji Sect in the past, but now it was no longer as simple as a catastrophe. It had become a struggle between humans and beasts, and for a while, it was difficult to stop.

Next, the Zhao Kingdom would also be plunged into unprecedented chaos.

In this situation, Baibao Tower should definitely make an early exit. It wouldn't be good for them to stay and deal with the upcoming Zhao Kingdom.

Moreover, unlike the current power of the Zhao Kingdom, they, as a business association, are flexible and adaptable. Now that the Yan Kingdom and Wei Kingdom are gradually settling down, this is the place where they can really show their skills. As for the Zhao Kingdom, it can be left to those forces that cannot leave.

Leaving the Lin Family Mountain, Elder Meng took a glance back and spat in the air.

"This Lin Family is cunning. They even want to split the profits with our Baibao Tower afterwards. That's too good to be true."

He thought about the Lin Family's intentions, but Elder Meng hesitated. If the Lin Family is not involved, where should he complete the task entrusted to him by Baibao Tower?

Chiyang Immortal City? Absolutely impossible. Since they lost the Chiyang Daoist, they have been contracting their influence. They don't even care about the territory of the Wuji Sect that was assigned to them. No one is managing it. Why would they want the things from our Baibao Tower? That Lord Huacheng, who was not prominent before, seems to be even more scheming than the former Chiyang Daoist. The possibility of this matter is slim.

As for the Qingfeng Sect and the Xianxia Sect, both sects have been established in the Zhao Kingdom for a long time and have many connections in the Yan Kingdom. They are probably aware of this. If they go now, it is likely to end badly.

Elder Meng took a few breaths. Originally, he thought he could benefit from this matter, but now it seems to be a very tricky task.

But no matter how tricky it is, it must be done.

Afterwards, he went separately to the Qingfeng Sect and the Xianxia Sect. However, just like the Lin Family, no one wants the market and mineral veins that were coveted by various parties before.

Actually, if it were like the Yan Kingdom and the Wei Kingdom, where the demonic beast tide lasted for decades, it would be fine. After all, when the demonic beasts retreat, the territory cannot be taken away and it will still belong to Baibao Tower.

But now, according to their information, these demonic beasts are coming aggressively this time, with the intention of taking over the Zhao Kingdom. In the future, the Zhao Kingdom will only have demonic beasts and no human cultivators. How can Baibao Tower not be anxious?

In fact, in the cultivation world, there has been a long-standing conflict between humans and demonic beasts, and there have been multiple conflicts in the past. Later, the demonic beasts were defeated and hid in the mountains or overseas, avoiding human cultivators. But now, in the Shangyun Prefecture, the demonic beasts have the upper hand, and the strength of human cultivators is insufficient, resulting in this situation.

Putting aside Elder Meng for now, Lin Qing thought for a long time after he left. He decided that this matter had to be dealt with by the entire Zhao Kingdom.

Baibao Tower can leave, but these people cannot.

The Qingfeng Sect and the Xianxia Sect have both rooted themselves in the Zhao Kingdom for a long time. The Lin Family and the Chiyang Immortal City have also been operating in the Zhao Kingdom for a long time. Who can easily leave? Even if they leave, where can they go? Therefore, faced with this beast tide, they only have one way to go.

That is, to face the beast tide directly.

Afterwards, Lin Qing contacted the Yipin Pavilion with the help of the Purple Jade Peach from last time. He learned that the Yan Kingdom and the Wei Kingdom have already made peace with the demonic beasts, and these demonic beasts are now targeting the Zhao Kingdom. As for the specific time, no one knows except the demonic beasts.

After learning this, Lin Qing contacted several other forces in the Zhao Kingdom and then decided to gather in the Chiyang Immortal City to discuss this matter.

Chiyang Immortal City.

The cultivation and prosperity of the Zhao Kingdom in the past few decades have made the Chiyang Immortal City bustling again. Many vacant houses have been filled again, and there are many unfamiliar faces on the streets. These are another group of scattered cultivators in the Zhao Kingdom. Many people, like Lin Qing back then, came to the Chiyang Immortal City from all directions in search of breakthrough opportunities.

Unlike before, it is not so difficult to obtain Foundation Building Pills in the Chiyang Immortal City now.

I still remember that back then, it was because Baibao Tower had a new Purple Mansion that Lin Qing had the opportunity to purchase a Foundation Building Pill. But that time, he really bled a lot, spending a total of 16,000 spirit stones to buy one Foundation Building Pill. Afterwards, he was even called the "16,000 Cultivator".

But now it's different. Thanks to the relaxed situation between the Wuji Sect and the Zhao Kingdom, scattered cultivators not only have more opportunities to come into contact with Foundation Building Pills, but the prices are also around 12,000 spirit stones. If the Lin Qing of the past were placed in the present, he could definitely buy two Foundation Building Pills and then break through.
