"Let him in!" Xia Ruofei said.
After Xia Ruofei hung up the phone, Ling Qingxue asked, "Ruofei, do you want to go out and pick him up? He's a guest! "
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Pick him up? Didn't you hear what I said just now? He's my disciple's disciple! "
"But after all, he's an elder …" Ling Qingxue said.
Xia Ruofei waved his hand and said, "No need. If I really go out and pick him up, he'll definitely be nervous. Just wait in the house!"
Xia Ruofei was right about this. If Li Yifu saw the Martial Granduncle coming out to pick him up personally, he would probably be terrified to the extreme.
After a while, the sound of a car came from outside the villa.
However, the car didn't drive into the yard, but stopped not far from the door. It was a black Mercedes-Benz sedan. For Li Yifu, this car was quite low-key.
After Li Yifu got out of the car, he stood at the door and pressed the doorbell. He said, "Martial Granduncle! Disciple Yifu is here to visit! "
Xia Ruofei said lightly, "Come in!"
Although his voice wasn't loud, it was very penetrating and clearly reached Li Yifu's ears.
Li Yifu hurriedly said, "Thank you, Martial Granduncle!"
Then, Li Yifu respectfully pushed open the door of the courtyard and stepped into the villa with a mentality of pilgrimage.
This was not an exaggeration at all. In Li Yifu's mind, Xia Ruofei was no doubt as supreme as a god. This was because Xia Ruofei was not only his master's elder, but also had a very high cultivation at a young age. In addition, he was indebted to him for giving him a new lease on life.
If a stranger walked into the courtyard like this, Little Hei and the others would immediately rush up aggressively. However, after Li Yifu came in, Little Hei's hair stood on end, and then he whimpered and lay on the ground.
These dogs that had lived in the Ring-Tu space were more intelligent than ordinary dogs, and their senses were more sensitive. Although Li Yifu looked like an old man, he was a cultivator at the fourth level of Qi Cultivation. The aura that faintly exuded from his body made Little Hei and the others not dare to act rashly.
When Li Yifu walked to the door of the villa, the door automatically opened to both sides. For Xia Ruofei, this was a piece of cake.
When Li Yifu saw Xia Ruofei standing in the living room, he hurriedly walked up and knelt down without hesitation and said, "Disciple greets Martial Granduncle!"
Ling Qingxue, who was standing at the side, was already stunned.
Although Xia Ruofei had already given her a heads-up, she still felt extremely shocked to see an old man with white hair and a beard so respectful in front of Xia Ruofei with her own eyes.
Especially in modern times, it was very rare for people to kneel down. However, Li Yifu knelt down without hesitation as soon as they met. Moreover, he looked quite natural, which made Ling Qingxue feel that it was a little out of place.
Xia Ruofei said lightly, "Get up! Today is the first time you've met me since returning to China. In the future, don't kneel down so easily! "
"Thank you, Martial Granduncle!" Li Yifu stood up and said, "Disciple obeys!"
Then, Li Yifu dared to look at Xia Ruofei. Of course, he still lowered his head.
With this glance, Li Yifu's body suddenly trembled and he asked in a trembling voice, "Martial Granduncle! You … You old man … Did you break through again? "
Xia Ruofei nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I had some enlightenment some time ago. Now, I've broken through to the sixth level of Qi Cultivation."
Although this breakthrough was inseparable from the accumulation of continuous cultivation in the early stages, from quantitative change to qualitative change, it was completed when he cultivated with Song Wei in a charming and gentle environment. Now, in front of Ling Qingxue, Xia Ruofei felt a little unnatural, so he was unwilling to say more.
However, Li Yifu's heart was already in turmoil. He was already a person who had one foot in the grave. If it weren't for Xia Ruofei's guidance in Australia, he might still be stuck at the third level of Qi Cultivation! Xia Ruofei was only in his early twenties and was already at the fifth level of Qi Cultivation. How long had it been since they last met? He had actually broken through another level.
Why was there such a big difference between people? Li Yifu couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He had to admit that there really were geniuses in this world, and a mediocre cultivator like him couldn't understand the world of geniuses at all.
Xia Ruofei glanced at Li Yifu and said with a smile, "Yifu, your cultivation has also improved a lot during this period of time! Not bad, not bad! "
Li Yifu's cultivation had now reached the middle of the fourth level of Qi Cultivation. It seemed that he hadn't slacked off in his cultivation during this period of time.
Of course, this was normal. The older a person was, the more they cherished their life. Especially Li Yifu, who was originally struggling bitterly in his cultivation, now saw the dawn of hope. Naturally, he was full of motivation to cultivate.
Li Yifu hurriedly said respectfully, "It's all thanks to Martial Granduncle! The Spirit-gathering Jade Carving that Martial Uncle Tang gave me also helped a lot. Otherwise, with my poor aptitude, it would be impossible for my cultivation to progress so quickly! "
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded, then said, "By the way, let me introduce you. This is my girlfriend, Ling Qingxue!"
Li Yifu had actually noticed the existence of Ling Qingxue long ago, but Xia Ruofei didn't introduce him, so he didn't dare to ask.
After hearing Xia Ruofei's words, he hurriedly bowed and said respectfully, "Greetings, Martial Grandaunt!"
Ling Qingxue was so scared that she quickly dodged to the side and said, "Don't, don't, don't … You're so old, I can't afford to be called that! Besides … Ruofei and I aren't married yet! "
Li Yifu said seriously, "As a cultivator, we should respect our teachers the most. You're Martial Granduncle's cultivation partner, so naturally, you're Yifu's Martial Grandaunt!"
Li Yifu could naturally see that Ling Qingxue's cultivation was also at Qi Refining Stage 1, and Xia Ruofei said that she was his girlfriend. Therefore, in Li Yifu's opinion, Ling Qingxue must be Xia Ruofei's cultivation partner.
"Cultivation partner?" Ling Qingxue didn't understand.
Xia Ruofei smiled and explained, "It means partner. This is what the cultivation world calls it!"
Then, Xia Ruofei said to Li Yifu, "Yifu, Qingxue just started cultivating yesterday, so she doesn't know much about the cultivation world. You'll scare her easily …"
"What?" Li Yifu couldn't help but cry out.
He originally thought that Ling Qingxue and Xia Ruofei were cultivation partners. In addition, Ling Qingxue's cultivation wasn't very high, so he didn't pay much attention to her. However, according to Xia Ruofei, Ling Qingxue had only cultivated for a day or two, and her cultivation had already stabilized at the mid-stage of Qi Refining Stage 1. This cultivation speed was a little terrifying.
Li Yifu felt a little numb.
Xia Ruofei himself didn't need to be mentioned. He was in his early twenties and had reached Qi Refining Stage 6. He was simply a genius among geniuses. Xia Ruofei's disciple, Tang Haoran, was even more infuriating. A child was actually already at Qi Refining Stage 2, and now he had a similarly young cultivation partner who actually cultivated to the mid-stage of Qi Refining Stage 1 in a day or two …
What exactly is there that Martial Granduncle can't do? Li Yifu thought to himself.
"Is there a problem?" Ling Qingxue asked, puzzled.
Li Yifu hurriedly said, "Forgive me, Martial Grandaunt. Yifu heard Martial Granduncle say that you've only cultivated for a day or two, so I was shocked and lost my composure …"
"So you're saying that my cultivation speed is alright?" Ling Qingxue asked happily.
It's more than alright! She's practically a monster, okay? Li Yifu roared in his heart.
Xia Ruofei chuckled and said, "Qingxue, with your cultivation speed, you should be able to kill many cultivators in an instant. That's why Yifu was so shocked! Of course, I didn't tell you because I was afraid you'd be proud! After all, your cultivation is still very low. Do you know what cultivation Yifu has reached? The mid-stage of Qi Refining Stage 4! "
Li Yifu hurriedly said, "Martial Granduncle, I'm ashamed! I've lived for more than eighty years in vain. If it weren't for Martial Granduncle's guidance last time, I'm afraid I'd still be stuck at Qi Refining Stage 3! I absolutely wouldn't dare to compare myself to a genius like Martial Grandaunt … "
Xia Ruofei waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright! Don't flatter her. She's only at Qi Refining Stage 1 now. She still has a long way to go! "
Ling Qingxue secretly made a face at Xia Ruofei, but Li Yifu still saw it. It was just that the other party was his grandmother-level elder, so he could only awkwardly lower his gaze and pretend he didn't see it.
Xia Ruofei said, "Yifu, do you still remember what I said before? When there are outsiders, you're not allowed to call them Martial Granduncle or Martial Grandaunt … Just call them Mr Xia and Miss Ling, understand? "
"Yes, Master!" Li Yifu said.
Xia Ruofei then said, "Alright, come and sit!"
The three of them sat down in the living room. Li Yifu naturally sat at the last seat respectfully, and he only dared to sit with half of his butt. His back was straight.
Xia Ruofei asked casually, "What investment project is it? You, a person who doesn't care about worldly affairs, came here in person? "
Li Yifu knew that his thoughts had been seen through by Xia Ruofei. He smiled embarrassedly and said, "The Jiuzhou Group plans to invest in a hotel project in Huaxia. The total investment amount is 8 billion Huaxia dollars …"
Ling Qingxue couldn't help but gasp when she heard this. Li Yifu rarely appeared in public these years, and Ling Qingxue didn't know that his business in the United States was so big. She just felt that this old man had an extraordinary temperament.
She didn't expect that he was actually the owner of the Jiuzhou Group, and that his investment could easily reach billions of Huaxia dollars. When she thought about how such a powerful person was respectful to Xia Ruofei and herself, Ling Qingxue felt that it was a bit unreal.
Even Xia Ruofei couldn't help but raise his eyebrows after hearing Li Yifu's words. The investment amount was really not small.
Li Yifu quickly explained, "8 billion is just the estimated investment amount of the whole project. This is a long-term plan, and not so much money in one go. In fact, we plan to open the Jiuzhou Hotel in Huaxia. The first five-star Jiuzhou Hotel is going to be located in the Three Mountains. So, this is the main reason why I came here this time …"
Xia Ruofei looked at Li Yifu with a faint smile, as if he could see through Li Yifu's soul. Li Yifu couldn't help but feel guilty and couldn't help but smile awkwardly.
In order to ease his embarrassment, Li Yifu changed the topic as if he had just remembered something. "By the way, Uncle Master, I also brought a small gift for you. Please be sure to accept it …"
"Oh? You prepared a gift for me? "Xia Ruofei smiled casually and asked," What is it? Take it out and let me see. "
Li Yifu said awkwardly, "That … The gift is too big to carry with me. It's still at the Three Mountains Airport!"
"Oh! What did you get for me? "Xia Ruofei asked.
Li Yifu said, "Last time in Australia, you and Yitian talked about a private jet when you were chatting …"
"Did I say that?" Xia Ruofei asked blankly.
Li Yifu said with certainty, "Yes, you joked that Yitian was a local tycoon who owned a private jet. I later asked Yitian and found out that you didn't have your own private jet, so …"
"Wait!" Xia Ruofei interrupted Li Yifu and asked with a strange look, "Don't tell me that you got a private jet for me!"
Li Yifu nodded and said, "Uncle Master is wise! The small gift that I prepared for Uncle Master is indeed a Gulfstream G650 business jet. This time, it was also a coincidence that a tycoon in Mexico ordered this jet, but he later canceled the order for various reasons. After I learned about it, I contacted Gulfstream and took over the jet. "
Speaking of this, Li Yifu was worried that Xia Ruofei would dislike it as a second-hand product, so he quickly explained, "The Mexican tycoon's order was not delivered, so this is still a brand new jet. In terms of the interior, the Gulfstream company also rearranged the layout according to my requirements and made certain changes …"
Li Yifu said a lot, and Xia Ruofei came back to his senses and quickly said, "Stop, stop! What kind of nonsense is this?! What do I want a jet for? No, no! "
Ling Qingxue on the side was also stunned. She already knew that Li Yifu should be very rich, and he was also respectful to Xia Ruofei. But it was really shocking that he would give a private jet worth hundreds of millions, and he even said that it was a "small gift."
Ling Qingxue actually didn't know that even if Xia Ruofei wanted the entire Jiuzhou Group, Li Yifu would definitely not hesitate to give it to him with both hands.
Jiuzhou Group was a large group with a market value of 10 billion US dollars, but after Li Yifu inherited Li Jiuzhou's legacy, he had absolute control over this group. Secular money was really nothing to Li Yifu. In his view, a few words from Xia Ruofei were worth more than the entire Jiuzhou Group.
Li Yifu said with some trepidation, "Uncle-Master, this time I acted on my own initiative. However, if you have any dissatisfaction with the plane, you can mention it at any time. Gulfstream will immediately make improvements according to your requirements …"
Xia Ruofei didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "Is it a question of whether I am satisfied with the jet? I don't need a private jet at all, okay? And I can't afford a Gulfstream even if you give me one! There is no need to discuss this matter, I won't accept it! "
Li Yifu quickly said, "Uncle Master, the Jiuzhou Group is naturally responsible for renting the hangar, maintenance, and the wages and benefits of the crew. You don't have to care about anything! I think that with a private jet, it will be more convenient for you to go out … "
Xia Ruofei was speechless. "Yifu, I usually stay at home and rarely go out. Even if I do go out, I'll go to the capital at most. I've never gone out of the country. It's such a waste for you to give me a long-haul business jet …"
Li Yifu pleaded, "Grand Martial Uncle, this disciple has received great kindness from Grand Martial Uncle, but there is nothing I can do to repay you. It's just a worldly item, and it's just a small token of my sincerity. This disciple earnestly hopes that Grand Martial Uncle won't refuse it, and also give this disciple a chance to show filial piety to you …"
